Elise:
"This is it!" Excited ang mommy habang inaayos ang gown ko. Today is my special day. Kinakabahan ako na masaya. Nasa labas na ang mga bisita. Kompleto ang lahat maliban sa best friend ko na si Sharlene.
"Ready?" Tanong ng lolo at pumasok ito sa loob. Napatayo naman ako at sinalubong siya ng yakap.
"Yes lolo, kinakabahan din at the same time." Ani ko.
"This is your big day hija and you're really look stunning with that red long gown." Napangiti ako sa pag puri sa'kin ng lolo. Kasama naman ni Nate ang anak namin na si Jovan at nasa labas na ito. Gusto ko ring malaman ang magiging reaksyon niya kapag nakita na niya ako.
"Sige na hihintayin ka namain sa labas." Masayang ani ni mommy at lumabas na sila ng lolo. Tinignan ko muli ang sarili ko sa malaking salamin. Napahinga ako ng malalim bago lumabas ng aking kwarto.
Pag labas ko'y naroon na ang mga bisita. Karamihan ng mga naging kaklase ko noon, mga kaibigan, kaibigan ng aming pamilya at syempre hindi mawawala ang tatlong best friends ni Nate.
Si Rex, Cloud and of course si Steven na mukhang kakauwi lang galing Italy. Matagal rin siyang nawala at alam kong hindi niya natunton si Sharlene sa Cebu. Minabuti ko kasing huwag na munang makialam sa personal na problema nila dahil 'yon ang mahigpit na bilin sa'kin ni Sharlene.
Nanlalamig ang aking mga kamay habang pababa na ng mahabang hagdan sa mansion. Napakaganda ng ambiance dahil tatlong sikat na mga designer ang kinuha ng lolo para sa preperasiyon ng aking ika labing walong kaarawan.
Nagtama ang mata namin ni Nate habang nakahawak sa stroller kung nasan natutulog ng mahimbing ang anak namin si Jovani.
Dahan dahan na akong bumaba at tumugtog ang isang napakagandang musika ng mahina kasabay ng pag announce ng Emcee.
"Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen. May we have your attention please. We are about to begin Elise's 18thBirthday Party Celebration so please find your seats or table numbers and make yourselves comfortable and enjoy the rest of the evening. A very good evening to each and everyone and welcome Elise's 18th Birthday. We would like to thank everyone for gracing this very momentous occasion because as they say, you only get to be 18 once." Pagkasabi'y nagpalakpakan ang lahat sa'king pag baba.
Kanya kanya na rin ang kanilang upo sa kani-kanilang mga upuan at sinalubong naman ako ni Nate. Iniwan niya saglit sa mga barkada si baby Jovani at kinuha ang kamay ko para alalayan. Hindi matanggal ang pagkakatitig niya sa'kin. Nakakalunod ang mga 'yon at hanggang ngayo'y napaka laking epekto parin sa'kin nito."You look gorgeous as always." Bulong nito sa'king tainga. Nag init naman ang aking mga pisngi.
Nagsalita muli ang Emcee.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is with great pleasure that I introduce to you the mother and the grand father of our lovely debutante, Mr.Clemente Sullivan and Heidi Sullivan. A big round of applause please. Thank you very much."
Umakyat sa di kataasang stage ang mommy at ang lolo. Nagpalakpakan naman ang lahat maging ako.
"Tonight calls for a grand celebration. I Welcome you all to the HOT and LEGAL PARTY of our charming debutant who is now turning into a fine lady. This is quite a very important event in her life and she is very much honored for your presence. Like Wendy in the movie Peter Pan, no more fairy tale stories every night. She is now a real lady as she stepped onto the much higher level of what we call LIFE. Ladies and gentlemen, sit back as we groove, jive and enjoy her party tonight… it is my distinct pleasure to introduce to you for the very first time, the reason why we are all gathered here tonight, as she makes her debut into the adult society. So without further ado, let us all rise and give a warm round of applause, would you please welcome, our lovely debutante, Elise Andes Sullivan-Salvatore? Such a spectacular grand entrance by our lovely debutante, I would say. And now to give a speech and a toast in honor of our beautiful debutante, we would like to ask for our debuntant's mother and grandfather here on the stage.
