I'VE NEVER been this choosy when it comes to what to wear, Gab says a simple dress will do. I have a couple of dresses here, like never-been-wore-dresses and wore-but-just-once dresses. I couldn't pick what to wear so I decided to call Nix, I know she can help.
"Hey."
"Hey, Nix.. Uhm I need your help" I sat on my bed, still looking at my closet.
"Yeah, what is it?" Okay so now how am I going to say this, look its awkward.
"Uhm so there's a dinner that I have to attend to tonight and... I'm sort of.... Okay I can't decide what to wear, so can you come over here and help me?" I bit my lip, praying that she's free tonight so she can come.
"Woah, Samara Montemayor, a dress? Since when did you learn to wear dresses?" She laughed. So hard. Oh yeah how great. I just embarrassed my self.
"Okay fine, Nixeffera Layson, forget about it. Bye"
"Hey hey!! Okay I'm sorry I'm just not used to it, I'm coming!!! .....and oh! Do you have bacon there? God. I'm craving!" I rolled my eyes. Yas bitch I have.
I ended the call and cooked some bacon, as she requested, after thirty minutes of waiting she finally arrived.
"What took you so long?" Instead of saying 'hello' or 'hi'.
"Sorry, there's an accident near this building, that's why.. But don't worry fairygod's mother is here to help you." she walked straight to my kitchen.
"Hep!!! Before bacon, you have to help me first!"
She raised both of her hand "Okay! okay! Calm your tits!"
I just rolled my eyes.
"We have to hurry!! I only have one and half hour."
THIRTY MINUTES had passed and we finally found a perfect dress for me.
Ang hassle pala mag paayos, like sa make up, kahit na gusto ko lip and cheek stain lang, may pag smokey eye pang nalalaman si Nix, but it turns out pretty good naman so okay na din.
I'm wearing a white dress na hapit na hapit sa katawan ko at may butas sa may part na makikita yung curve ko, at first I was hesitant to wear it, baka kasi masyadong revealing, but I trust Nix's taste in fashion so keri lang.
Gab texted me that he's on his way here, so nag retouch ako ng kaonti.
Kinakabahan ako, what if matapilok ako? what if I don't look good? there's so many what ifs in my head, ugh.
Goodness gracious, Sam what's happening to you? its just a dinner, with Gab's family, you already had a dinner with them before there's nothing to worry about, calm. fuck
Naabutan kong pinapapak ni Nix yung bacon sa sala while watching Wimpy kid the movie , kahit kelan ang isip bata.
Ding, dong, ding, dong..
I was about to open the door, when Nix did it for me, oh how blessed I am to have a good friend. lmao
Napansin kong nagulat siya nung pagkabukas niya ng pinto.
Wait sino ba yung nasa labas?
"Uh, Sam naalala ko may family dinner din kami, shocks I almost forgot, well, have fun sa dinner, bye!" Dali dali siyang umalis, at eto pa, sa pagmamadali niya kinuha niya yung isang plato na may mga bacon, how nice Nix, great.
"Hey, Male" I greeted him.
"Uh.. H-hey"
"Teka, Are you alright?"
"Yes, uh Let's go?"
I nodded, at sumunod sa kanya.
"Kilala mo pala si Nix? You didn't tell me." pagbasag ko ng katahimikan habang nagmamanego siya papunta sa kanila.
"You didn't ask" tapos ngumiti, "..at saka we're not friends, pinakilala lang siya sakin ni Marcus, nung may party sa bahay nila..."
I nodded. Trying to look like I'm convinced with what he just said. But there's something na hindi sinasabi nitong si Gab, if they're not friends, bat ganon yung reaction ni Nix? May nangyari kayang di maganda nung party? Mygad. Sam, curiosity kills.
"Female, ang tahimik mo, say something."
"Something" I chuckled. He said 'say something' so that's what I did.
"Ah so ngayon, pinipilosopo mo na ko?"
"Hindi naman, sinunod ko lang yung gusto mo, you said say something,right?"
"SAMARA, ija, you're here...naku pasensya ka na talaga ah, pati ikaw nadamay pa dito.." Sabay tingin kay Gab, who's beside me, ".. Kasi naman itong isa, ayaw pa magpakasal"
"Okay lang po, ayaw niyo po noon, wala kayong kaagaw na babae kay Gabrielle Ian" Masama namang tingin ang pinukol ni Gab saakin, ayaw niya kasing tinatawag siya sa buong pangalan niya.
"Shut up, Samara Monica" then he smirked.
"Andiyan na ba ang paborito kong apo?" Tanong ng isang matanda galing sa kusina.
Nagkatinginan kami ni Gab, I know what he's thinking....Go with the flow.
"Good Evening po, Mrs. Priscilla."
"Good Evening din Samara, Its nice to see you again.." Eww how I hate calling me by my whole name.
"Ate Sam!!" Isang sigaw naman mula kay Jerika ang bumungad sakin sa kusina.
Agad ko siyang niyakap.
"Hi Jerika!"
"Naku ate sobra kitang na-miss!"
"Na-miss din naman kita, Jerika.. Kamusta studies?"
"Okay naman ate, Kayo na ba ni kuya Ian?"
How I wish, Jerika.. I wish.
"Ano ka ba, Jerika. Hindi"
Tumingin ako kay Gab na ngayon ay maiitim na nakatingin sakin. Nasaktan ka ba dahil sinabi kong hindi tayo?
Why don't you tell me what you feel, because how you acting is confusing me..
Nagsimula kami maghapunan, It went fine, mag se-senior high na pala next school year si Jerika, balak naman ipasa ni Tito Miguel ang isa sa mga kompanya nila kay Gab, si Tita Charm naman ay balak mag tayo ng isang Coffee shop, pero di pa daw sure..
"So, kelan ang kasal?" Basag sa katahimikan ni Mrs. Priscilla
Sakal gusto mo? Joke.
"Ah hehe Mrs. Priscilla, hindi ba masyado pang maaga para sa kasal?" Jusko, Oo crush ko si Gab, pero kasal? Di pa ko ready.
"You're 25, and Gab's 26, siguro naman right age na ito para magpakasal kayo hindi ba? Unless, you love someone else?"
Uh-oh
"Ah actually, m-meron po" Tho wala naman talaga, I just want to get rid with this arranged marriage thingy
"Hmmm, kayo ba? Kailan pa? Cause last time I checked you were single, ija"
Tangina. Kailangan ba talagang ipa-mukha saakin na NBSB ako?!
"ah I will think about it po, busy po kasi siya.. I mean he's a businessman so.."
"Oh yeah ija, I understand.. So you prefer hot businessman bachelors, iyong mas nayaman kesa kay Gab?" Taas kilay nitong tanong saakin, teka I never said that! She was just assuning things!
"No.. No that's not what I mean, It's just that, I-I Love my boyfriend, and I won't leave him just because you want me to marry your grandson and take over his dad's company... Wag na po ako, iba nalang
.." Sabay lunok ng laway kong sagot.
"..and beside Gabrielle is my bestfriend, nothing more, nothing less, I love him as a friend and I don't feel any romantic feeling towards him po" Liar!
"Is that so?, I thought Gab, likes you.." Sabay tingin niya kay Gab na ngayon ay nakatingin sa kin.
And guess what, I'm shookedth
