Secrets of the Pineda

11. Weirdness

I woke up because my phone ringing and at the same time my doorbell buzzing. Tamad na tamad akong bumangon dahil sobrang late na kami nakauwi. Garrett and Tiffany left first they didn't tell the reason. I thought Garrett will just leave me then but he didn't. Hinatid niya muna ako dito sa condo bago sila nagmadaling umalis ni Tiffany.

"What??" I yelled at the person who's calling me.

"I know you were waiting for my call but don't make it too obvious." I look who is the caller and it's Garrett. Biglang nawala ang inis ko. I remember what Alexa and I talked about before I went to bed.

I told her everything and we were both squealing like a kids in middle school. Then she told me not to show him that I really really like him. Make him confuse. Huwag ko ipapahalata na gusto ko siya. Because guys love challenges.

"Dream on, garrett." I smirked when I heard him tss.

I walked outside my room and opened the door at my condo. Kuya Spencer glared at me but I just smiled at him.

"Go get dress. We'll have breakfast outside." I said okay and go back to my room.

"Is that your boyfriend again?" I smiled when I heard his tone. I think someone's jealous.

"You can say that." Well I am so good at pretending. Maasar nga. I just want to know how he will react.

"Di hamak naman na mas gwapo ako dun." Oh boy! I'll definitely enjoy this.

"Well I can't say who's the most handsome. but I think it's him. Siguro pag nag tabi kayo makikita ko kung sino mas gwapo. I don't know." I put my clothes at my bed and stand outside the bathroom.

"Okay." Then he hang up just like that. What the hell?? Hindi man lang mag bye.

Spencer brought me to one of his favorite restaurant. Sabi niya hindi lang yung dish ang masarap dito. Yung desserts din nila. Spencer is really fond to sweet foods. Any kind of foods basta sweet gusto ni Spencer.

He is the one who ordered. It's my first time here so he take the honor to choose what's the best food they have. Spencer is talking to his 'new girl' over the phone. Instead of listening to their conversation. I just look around the restaurant.

I really love the style of it. It's an old style restaurant with pure elegance. It's so homey and very cozy and peaceful and nice and beautiful restaurant I had been here. It's like a diner style in the US. But this was better and the customer service are amazing.

A middle age couple entered the restaurant. And they catch my attention. Not because they look handsome and beautiful but because they look so perfect together. You can sense the bright life they have. You can feel their love for each other. By the way they look to each other. No doubt that they are head over hills inlove.

Everytime I'll see a couple just like them. Naiinggit ako at nalulungkot. What would it feel like if your biological parents are like that?

Our food arrive and we started eating. And it's really delicious. The foods are mouth watering and I am thanking Spencer for bringing me here. As we are both eating, Spencer ask me if how was school which I answered the same every time he asked me.

"I won't be here in manila for 2 days." Sabi niya. Ako din. I want to tell him but I need to ask my parents first. Pag pumayag sila Kahit Hindi papayag si Spencer I can still go.

"Really? Saan ka pupunta?" I asked as I wipe my mouth.

"Sorry I'm late." I stared at the man who sat beside me with wide eyes. What is he doing here? He wink at me then start to order a food for him. Spencer cleared his throat that's why I look away.
