Almost Happy Ending (On Going)

Chapter 3 "Unanticipated Engagement"

***

Tionna POV

Kasalukuyan kaming kumakain ng biglang tumunog ang aking phone. I smiled as I saw the name of my dad plastering on the screen. I looked at Ty's direction to inform that I'll just answer the phone. Isang simpleng ngiti ang kanyang iginawad na nangangahulugang ayos lang iyon sa kaniya. I myself went at the veranda of my room and talked to my dad. The beautiful sunlight reflecting the whole city made me also smiled. I positioned myself in between the veranda where I can fully gazed the city as I held my other hand on the banister.

"Hi dad! How are you?" Bungad na usal ko sa kabilang linya.

Hindi pa man siya nakakapagsalita ay napangiti na ako. Nagulat ako ng biglang may kumalabit sa paanan ko. Napangiti ako ng sumulpot si Tori. She seated right next on me and looking cutely at me. I didn't expected that she'll followed me. Akala ko kumakain siya kaya medyo nagulantang ako.

"I'm good darling." Mahina itong humalakhak na para bang may nakakatawa sa tanong ko.

I missed them so bad.

"How's mom? Is she's fine?" I asked. I don't have any idea why he calls me this early.

"Yes darling." I sighed as a relief. Mabuti naman kung ganoon. I suddenly noticed Tori's presence eyeing the huge scenery of this city. Mukhang nagustuhan niya rin ang paligid ngayon. I genuinely grinned at that thought. She looked like a human being. She know how to imitate me.

"Bakit po pala kayo napatawag?" Mostly kasi ako ang tumatawag sa kaniya kaya medyo nakakapagtaka lang.

"We're here in the Philippines." May galak na ani dad.

Namilog ang mga mata ko ng marinig ko iyon. When they came back? I mean how I didn't know it. Ngayon lang ito nangyari. They always informed me ahead of time. That's why I'm totally shock about his news. Its weird dahil parehas na parehas sila ni Ty. Anong meron?

"Kailan pa dad?" Medyo may mahihimigan kang pagtatampo sa tugon ko. Hindi ko man lang kasi sila nasundo kong ganoon o sana nakapunta agad ako sa bahay.

"Yes, were just headed to our house and I want you to prepare later." Napakunot ako ng noo ng marinig ko ang sinabi niya.

Where are we going?

"For what dad?" Naguguluhan kong tanong.

"A party? We'll just sent your dress a bit later and our driver will fetch you up. You should wear it, okay?" He verbosely said. Hindi ba muna sila magpapahinga? Hindi ba sila pagod? Ang haba pa naman ng byahe nila.

"Okay? Ah Ty is here by the way dad. Can I invite her?" Naguguluhan ko pa ring sagot. We should invite her since she's like a real family for us.

"Of course darling." Napangiti ako dahil sa anang niya. I also yearns to talk to my mom but I abruptly remember that we will saw each other later on.

"Thanks dad. See you then." After his call, Tori and I went to the dining area to continue our breakfast that suddenly postponed awhile ago. Naabutan kong patapos na si Ty sa kinakain niya. She look up on my direction when she heard my footsteps. I went to my chair where my foods placed and touched my spoon and fork.
