Dance

Tahimik lang ako habang sinusukat ang gown na napili namin mula sa designer na kinuha ni mommy. she let me choose the design I want and it surprised me.

"Take Cylander as your escort." saad ni mommy habang inaayos ang tali ng gown ko sa likuran.

"My, please let me decide. just this one." pagmamakaawa ko dito. I saw her reflection at the mirror looking at me.

"Nagmamatigas ka pa rin, I told you to break up with your boyfriend." saad niya at padabog na hinihigpitan ang pagkakatali ng gown ko kaya napapadaing nalang ako.

"Fine, I'll let you. but promise me, you'll break him up or else.." nagbabantang saad niya saakin matapos ang ilang sandaling katahimikan.

They said you can't find love with someone you just met and fall harder by their looks and moves. Kung anong meron kami ngayon, is this considered as love?

Considering this as love, but how could my mom tell me that I was too young for this? or maybe I should be focusing more about my responsibilities and priorities?

Naging busy sila mommy sa company ngayon lalo na at hindi maasikaso nila Daddy at Tito Andrew ang SWI na ngayon ay si Cael ang standing CEO. tatlong araw na akong sinasama ni Mommy sa firm dahil hindi rin naman daw ako busy sa school event. siguro ay isa ito sa paraan para paglayuin kami ni Evo.

She even confiscate my phone every time we're together. at first, I was hesitant to give it to her pero kalaunan ay wala din akong nagagawa.

And what makes me irritated is she's forcing me to date with Cylander. I'm not really talking to Cylander while we're heading on with the familiar expensive restaurant.

Namamayagpag ang malaking emblem sa accent wall na bubungad pag pasok pa lang sa entrance.

"You should eat more, bakit iyan lang ang kinakain mo?" puna ni Cylander sa kinakain kong crab coleslaw at olive garden salad.

"Just eat there, healthy ang kinakain ko." I answered. he's slicing his ordered chicken buffalo and transferred some on my plate. tinitigan ko naman ang ginawa niya at hinayaan siya.

I felt a little bit pain on my chest watching him doing this things to me. how he can be so patient? kami ang nangangailangan sa kanila at ako pa ang nag-iinarte.

Gabi na kami halos nag-uusap ni Evo o di kaya ay hapon pag maaga kaming umuuwi ni Mommy. he still understands my situation right now pero hindi pa rin siguro maiiwasan ang konting tampuhan.

"Why are you keeping this to me?" Evo asked when we decided to talk through face time

"Hindi ko naman ginusto iyon, it's my mom.." I said. tumitig lang ito sa akin habang salubong pa rin ang kilay.

"Why are you two dating in the first place? are you guys what?" nagdududang tanong niya.

"Evo we just date once, hindi siya ang nag-aya, hindi rin ako. it's my mom!" I said frustratedly.

"Tell me, are you guys fixed?" he asked directly. napasinghap naman ako at hindi na halos makasagot. he easily read things by observing around.

"Yes.." mahinang sagot ko. hindi siya sumagot agad at mas lalo lamang dumilim ang itsura nito. "and if that's the case, if we end up together or not, what would be gone after this will be a lesson for us." dagdag ko.

"Why does it feel like you're giving this up now?" malumanay na tanong niya. umiling naman ako agad

"I'm not giving up.." mahinang sagot ko. "I'm just anticipating things.." dagdag ko. he hissed and shook his head in disbelief.
