About You

XXVI.

"Heart upo ka muna, baka pagod ka na."

"Gusto mo ba ng water, girl?"

"Cupcake gusto mo?"

"I saw some pick-a sa buffet kanina. Ikukuha ba kita?"

Napailing na lang ako sa mga kaibigan namin. Heart also did the same, with matching kunot ng noo and pout pa.

"Seriously guys? I thought napagusapan na natin to? C'mon you don't have to be this cautious of me. Love o, they're acting weird."

I pinched her cheek. Cute e. "Mga pre, Madi, kalma lang kayo. Love is not that fragile, she's a strong woman kaya you don't have to worry." Nginitian ko sina Iris to convince them.

Madi went to Heart and hugged her sideways. "Di naman maiiwasan yun Leoel e. I'm sure you know it."

"Oo nga naman pre. Pero sige, kung yan talaga ang gusto nyo pipilitin naming hwag mag alala." sabi ni Iris.

Bumuntong hininga si Llyndon. "Ano pa nga ba, pero Heart? Sure ka bang ayaw mo ng cupcake?"

"Llyndon, I'm fine haha. Ikaw ata may gusto ng cupcake e." natatawang sagot ng girlfriend ko.

"Oo nga pre! Sus, kunwari ka pang inaalok si Heart ha, pero ikaw naman talaga yung may gusto ng cupcake hahahaha." nag asaran pa muna sila Llyndon at Maxwell bago nila naisipang lumabas sa mismong hall. Sumama na din sa kanila yung magsyota to check the decorations kaya ngayon kami na lang ni Heart ang naiwan dito.

Heart seated in front of a mirror and start retouching her make up. We're now inside a dressing room beside the grand hall.

"You still look gorgeous even without make up, Love" I said while putting some strands of her hair behind her ear. Heart smiled and looked at me with a mocking smile.

"Bolero ka talaga Mr. Jimenez."

"Hindi ako bolero Ms. Lacsamana. I'm just stating some facts here." sasagot pa sana sya when her phone beeped.

"Oh, si Ate Zana. Malapit na daw sila nina Nea."

"Ang bilis nila ah." Today is the D-day and we're just waiting for the debutant to arrive.

Naglagay ng liptint Heart bago tumayo. "Let's go outside na." I smiled at her and held her hands. When we entered the hall proper, para kaming pumasok sa mundo ni barbie. Everything is freakin pink!

"Geez, I shouldn't be surprised by this but really, this is fvckin girly and too gay!" agad naman akong siniko ni Heart.

"Ano ka ba Love, syempre girly to! Duh! It's Renea's day not yours."

"Oo na, oo na." I put an arm around her shoulder and we went off to find our friends. Sa sobrang daming abubot nitong hall, nahirapan kaming makita sila hahaha joke. Nasa buffet table lang sila.

"Mga matatakaw! Parating pa lang si Nea, inuubos nyo na agad yung handa nya!" napatingin sila sa amin at halos mabulunan sina Iris sa sinabi ko.

"OMG! Paparating na si Nea-girl?! I'm so excited na!" Nauna ng magsalita sa kanila si Madi.

"Ang bilis naman nila! Tsaka sumama talaga si Renea kay Zana? Wow feeling close? Hahaha." bida naman ni Iris.

Maxwell put an arm on Iris' shoulder. "Alam mo naman yung si lil' sis basta tungkol kay Heart, go lang ng go feeling globe yun e hahahaha"

Natawa kami sa sinabi nya, well that's true. Remember Heart's manager? Suzanna? She volunteered to pick Nea up and bring her here. Sinabi nya lang that there's a surprise event for Heart and viola, bilang bida bidang fan ang kapatid ko, nangunguna sya sa nagprisinta na magpaparticipate.
