Kabanata 16

We entered at the restaurant hold hands. I wanted to get my hand from him but I can't take any move by doing that. Hinawakan ni Gian ang aking kamay at iginaya ako sa aming magiging upuan.

"Thanks..." I said after he guided me to sit.

Ngumiti lang ito at nagpunta na rin sa kanyang upoan. Nakatingin lang ako sa mga taong seryosong kumakain. Some are laughing and some are seriously talking with each other. I even saw some investors of my Dad before. But I bet, they've already forgotten me.

Dumating ang waiter. Ibinigay niya saamin ang isang menu and my eyes widen in a brief moment as my jaw dropped after that. Gosh, the amount of the foods was so expensive. I merely choose to eat in a cheap restaurant than on this.

"This is so expensive, Gian." Sabi ko at tumingin sa kanya.

"What's the matter of the money, Harmony? Go on, order any food you want." Aniya.

Tumingin ako sa waiter na mukhang walang pakialam sa pinag-uusapan namin ni Gian. Agad ko naman ibinalik ang aking tingin sa kay Gian.

"This is too much," umiling ako.

"That won't be enough, Harmony. Anything in this world not enough for you. You deserve the world, no, more than world." Aniya sa napakaseryosong tono.

Uminit ang pisngi ko dahil sa kanyang sinabi. Nahiya ako dahil may taong nakikinig sa kanyang mga sinasabi patungkol saakin. He describes me like a perfect woman and it made me flattered.

"No, I'm just worrying about the money, Gian. Why do we need to eat here if we can just eat in a cheap restaurant?"

"Narito na tayo, Harmony."

Yeah, so why I'm still complaining things right away? Nandito na nga kami at ako naman ay inaabala pa ang sariling magreklamo. Thankfully, the waiter hasn't got pissed because of us.

Sinabi na namin ang aming order at saka umalis 'yung waiter. Gian also started to talk about some stuffs and so on. And to lit up the mood I think? Because I am preoccupied because of Reagan. Nakakainis dahil bakit nagsisisi ako sa naging desisyon kong iwan siya? Damn, what's going on you, Harmony?

"Are you done settling your requirements about you schooling?" Tanong ni Gian.

Hindi kaagad ako nakasagot dahil sinerve na nila ang aming order na pagkain.

"Not all, though. I still need to get my good moral certificate to La Salle. Walang available time kaya hindi ko maisingit."

Tumango naman ito at mataman akong tinignan, "You can just take a day off? I'm sure Henry would let you if he will know that it's for your studies."

"No, hindi lang naman 'yun. Besides, matagal pa naman ang semestral break. I still have time to prepare." Untag ko at saka sinubo ang isang piraso ng beefsteak.

"Sabagay." Nagkibit siya ng balikat, "Just tell me if you need my help, in case. I have a friend working at La Salle,"

"No thanks, Gian. I don't want to be a bother..."

Tinignan ako ni Gian na parang may nasabi akong mali. I gulped because of what he did. May nasabi ba akong mali?

"You're not a bother to me, Harmony. You'll never be." Malamig niyang saad.

Kinagat ko ang aking labi.

"You have your own part, Gian. Your work, and such. You don't need to help me on this. Magpapatulong nalang ako kay Liza."
