Chapter 17: My heaven on earth
I wore the Nike cap and shoes that Dylan had given me. I would watch his game today with Patty and Jia. We even made a banner to show our support to him and their team.
"Wit ba tayong song para sa kanila?" Jia asked while tying the laces of her shoes. "O kaya cheer dance man lang?"
"My gosh! Anong feeling mo, bibigyan ka ng chance na magpaka-cheerleader sa gitna ng hard court sa Araneta? Ambisyosa naman you!" hirit ni Patty na inilagay pa ang mga kamay sa beywang.
Jia just rolled her eyes. "Kahit sa seat lang natin pwede na! Araneta pa rin yon uy!"
Natawa na lang ako sa kalokohan nilang dalawa. I was about to book a grab when I saw Dylan's SUV park in front of our apartment, emerged from his car, wearing Nike pants, hooded jacket, and shoes. He looked as fresh and handsome as ever.
Lumabas na ako ng bahay at sinalubong siya. "Love."
He leaned down and gave me a peck on the lips. I got a whip of his perfume and it made me want to cling to him and smell him all day.
"Ready to go?" he asked.
"Sabi ko naman sa'yo, mag-ga-grab na lang kami, love," sabi ko sa kanya.
His forehead just creased a bit but didn't say anything. Lagi niya akong sinusundo at inihahatid kung saan man ako pupunta. Lumabas na ang dalawa at binati siya. They even showed him the banner that they made which brought a smile to his face.
"Thank you."
"Good luck, Dylan! I'm sure pasok na yung team niyo sa semis."
Tipid siyang ngumiti. "I hope so."
Patty and Jia were over the moon when they met Dylan's team mates. Nagpa-picture pa ang dalawa at humingi ng autograph. When I first met them, I wanted to ask for a photo with them, but Dylan didn't allow me. Nalukot talaga ang mukha niya noon. He didn't even want me to come near them. He was that possessive!
Since it was still early, Dylan, GP, and Art watched the first game with us. As usual, they exchanged opinions about the game.
"Beltran isn't playing with his team," Dylan muttered.
GP nodded in agreement. "He probably wanted all the credit. Selfish jerk. Never liked the guy."
"He plays dirty, as well," Arc added.
"Ka-nosebleed naman kasama ang mga 'to!" bulong ni Jia sa akin. "English to the max!"
"Gaga! Ganyan talaga pag rich kid!" hirit naman ni Patty.
I laughed so hard which made the three men glanced at us. Nagtatanong ang tingin sa akin ni Dylan. I grinned, shook my head, and hugged his arm as I leaned my head on his shoulder. Natutok pa sa banda namin ang camera dahil ipinapakita ang mga celebrities at players na nanonood ng game. Arc and Gp waved at the camera, but my boyfriend remained passive. Suplado talaga. He didn't even look at the camera.
