"Why can't we be together?!" I grabbed his shirt with anger as I begged for him. "I love you, why can't you understand that?!" I just continued in between sobs. He was just silent the whole time and never did respond to what I said.
"You made me fee...
As soon as Via was about to get in to her car and leave, she stopped and looked at me. "Come with me on our date" She said.
"What?! Why?!" I barely shouted being surprised of what she said. "Well, you can bring Marco with you. We can have a double date!" she suggested.
"You're nervous aren't you?" I gave her a smirk. "Fine, yes. I admit it" she confessed. "Why are you even nervous if you have dated a lot of guys already?" I asked. "I don't know. I feel nervous around him" she replied.
"What kind of nervous? Like, bad or good nervous?" I asked again. "Good nervous. He's kinda nerdy in a good way you know?" she replied as she gave a little giggle.
"Via" we turned around and saw Scott coming towards us.

"I couldn't help hear your problem. It's okay if Vera won't be with you tomorrow for your date. I will make sure that everything will be alright" said Scott. "Thanks Scott, but you know that it's different if my best friend will come" Via replied.
"I'll see what I can do, Via. Anyway, what time is your date?" I asked. "Tomorrow at three" she replied. "Okay. I can't promise, but I'll try my best" I said to her. "Okay thanks Vera" she replied as she gave me a hug and went inside the car.
"Take care of her. She's a bit dramatic" I jokingly said to Scott as he closed the door for her. "Good to know" he replied with a smile. "Have a pleasant evening Vera" he added as he was about to get in the car.
"Bye Scott" I waved goodbye as the car drove away.
As I was about to walk back inside, my dad's car just arrived. I smiled as he opened the door of the car. "Hi dad" I walked towards him and gave him a hug. "How's your day Mi Amor?" He asked. "It's all good. You just missed Via. She just left" I replied while walking inside the house.
"Chris, what shall I cook for dinner tonight?" asked Maria as she went out from the kitchen. "Your specialty Maria because we will be having a guest tonight" he replied while giving me a smile. "I'm excited to see him" he added. "Me too dad" I replied.
As I was about to get dressed, I received a text message from Marco.
"I'm sorry Vera, but I can't come to dinner. Tell your father I'm sorry"
I was speechless. I thought he's not that kind of guy....
I went downstairs and asked Maria to cook for just me and my dad. no fancy dinner. "Why? What happened?" Maria asked. "He couldn't come and I don't know why" I replied. "Did you try to call him?" she asked again.
"Yeah. I texted him and asked why, but he didn't reply and I couldn't reach his phone" I replied to her. "What's going on?" My dad went inside the kitchen and saw me looking unhappy. I looked at him and he's already changed.
"Dad, I'm sorry, but Marco's not coming tonight" I said to him. I saw how sad he was for me. I walked towards him and hugged him tightly.
"I'm sorry to hear that baby" He hugged me back and reassured me. My tears suddenly fell from my eyes and I didn't want my dad to see me being hurt. "Maybe he has an emergency to attend to" He said as he let go of me.
"I'm sorry dad. I'm sorry I let you down" I looked at him and he wasn't even mad at me. "You can never let me down" He replied as he touched my face. "There are just some things that we can't control. We're just people. We are not different from people outside the entertainment world" He added.
I smiled at him and thanked him. How lucky am I to have a dad like him...
