Everything About You

Chapter 51

"I'll be out early today Mariel, I'll be attending my cousin's birthday party." I said as I accept the documents she is about to give me.

"Okay Ma'am, can I go home early too?" She asked, her eyes sparkling with a thought of going home early.

Tumango ako bilang sagot kaya naman nakangiti syang lumabas ng opisina ko.

From: Cloud Smith

See you later, Architect! I'll fetch you at 7.

Napangiti ako ng mabasa ang text niya. He ask me to be his date tonight, and I agreed because I don't have someone to be with me. I'm sure they are all going with their boyfriends and I will be the one who'll be out of place dahil sa may mga sari-sarili na silang mundo kapag magkasama.

Maaga akong nag-out sa opisina para magkaroon ng sapat na oras para makapag-ready. Talia will be having a Hollywood themed party so I have to be prepared kahit na hindi ko naman hilig ang pag-aayos.

I took a quick shower to freshen up before fixing my face and hair.

I decided to French braid my long curly hair and styled it sideways and leave the small hair to add on to the style. I choose to do this hairstyle so I can highlight my body more. I wear a classic burgundy red long gown with deep V-back.

I actually feel so conscious showing my sexy back and my cleavage more, but Julia said I should wear something revealing than what I always wore.

I did not put so much effort in doing my make-up, foundation, eyebrow and lipstick will do.

Saktong patapos na ako sa pagkakabit ng hikaw ko ng tumawag sakin si Cloud.

"Hey, Architect. I'm already outside your building, you done?" he said without even saying proper hello.

"Yes, five minutes na lang wait." I answered and put the phone down, not giving him a chance to complain.

Nagmamadali kong ikinawit ang kwintas na natanggap ko noong graduation day ko sa isang di kilalang nilalang. Yes, I am using his gifts even if I don't know who he is.

True to my words, after five minutes ay nakababa na ako sa building at nakita ko na si Cloud na nakaupo sa couch ng receiving area ng building at naka-dekwatrong upo habang nag-aantay sakin.

I went in front of him to make him know I am here and we're ready to go. His reaction is priceless though. His mouth is gaping at me and his eyes are wide open like he is seeing something he didn't expect to see. Amusement is visible in his eyes too.

"Let's go?" Aya ko ng makitang nakatulala parin sya sakin at naka-ganoon parin ng ayos habang sinusuri ako.

He blinked three times and closed his mouth and cleared his throat like he's ashamed that he shows me how he got star struck by my appearance.

"I'm so lucky to be your date Rafi! I can't believe it! You're so beautiful and stunning and alluring and sexy may I add..." he said as he offered his hands so we could walk together.

Tinanggap ko ang kamay nya at nagangat nan g tingin sa paligid. Ngayon ko lang napansin na parang halos lahat ay nakatingin sakin kaya naman nakaramdam ako ng hiya. Yeah right Julia, it's your fault. You know I am not used to this!

We arrived at the venue safely and peacefully. Agad naman akong pinagbuksan ng pinto ni Cloud para makalabas ako. I stand beside him and let him lead the way because I know I am not too confident when it comes to this! I was also thankful that Cloud asked me, atleast I'll have someone to be with when my friends aren't around.
