I felt like my heart stopped beating for seconds. I'm staring at him with my mouth dropped open. He looked so fresh and handsome. He was wearing grey long sleeves with his sleeves folded up to the middle of his arm pair with ripped jeans.

Tumingin siya sa akin. May multo parin ng ngiti sa kanyang labi mula sa pakikipagtawanan kay Summer.

“Uhh. Nandito kana pala”

He smiled as a response before eyeing me head to toe. Napatikhim tuloy ako at napaayos ng tayo.

“Are you sure you wanna come out with her?” tanong ni Summer. Tumawa ng marahan si Drake.

“Yes"

“Can't I come?”

"Maybe next time. Sa ngayon gusto ko munang masolo ang ate mo" sabi niya habang nakatingin sa akin.

Nanlambot ang mga tuhod ko sa narinig. Umismid siya nung makita ang pamumula ng buong mukha ko.

"Let's go"

Wala pa ako sa sarili nung tumango ako. Pakiramdam ko nasa alapaap ako. I was shocked when I saw his black Lamborghini parked outside our house. I couldn't believe I would be riding his car again. Ang huling sakay ko sa sasakyan niya ay noong ihinatid niya ako sa bahay namin which I remembered ay pakiusap ni Mommy.

Nakatayo ako sa harap ng pinto ng passengers seat habang hinihintay siya na pagbuksan ako ng pinto. 

“What are you waiting for? Hop in!” sabi niya na nakasilip sa bintana. Hindi ko alam na nakasakay na pala siya sa loob.

“Huh?”

“Are you expecting me to open the door for you?” he asked, creasing his well shaped eyebrows. 

Kimi akong ngumiti. I slowly went inside the car, I also fasten the seatbelt. Feeling so ackward,  nervous, and too embarrassed.

Now with Drake I could not help feeling uneasy and a bit awkward. He was silent the whole time we were in the car, so I keep quiet as well. He took glances at me and I did the same too. I can't help but to stare at his handsome face. His perfectly shaped eyebrows, curly eyelashes, his pointed nose, his jaw and his smooth and red lips.

Ngumuso siya at nagkunot ng noo. “You're distracting me.”

“I'm not doing anything”

“Then stop staring. I felt so distracted” 

I felt my face burning. I fixed my clothes in embarrassment as I diverted my attention to the view outside.

Noong mabagot ako sa pagtingin sa labas ng bintana tumingin ulit ako sa kanya. “Where are we going?”

“It's a secret”

“Saan nga?”

“It wouldn't be a secret anymore if I tell you”

Ngumuso ako at tumingin ulit sa labas. Hindi ko alam kung nasaang lugar na kami. Hindi ko din alam kung ilang oras ang itinagal ng byahe.
