"Why don't we just make it real?"
"For today?" dagdag nito.
Nagulat si Ara sa suhestyon ng kasama.
"For what?", she asked Chase back.
"These people know our parents, the last time they saw us together was when we were together, I don't know about you but I don't want to explain a long story to many people," kanyang pagpapaliwanag.
"And besides, they'll just forget about it anyways," dagdag ni Chase.
Inisip ni Ara ng maigi ang mga salitang lumalabas sa bibig ni Chase. It's true, he has a point, but it will just mess up her mind, the least thing she wants is to be affiliated with Chase in more than solely for business purposes.
Bago pa makasagot si Ara sa suhestyon ni Chase ay pinuntahan sila ng dalawang matanda na mukhang mag-asawa.
It looks like Chase knows them dahil nilapitan niya ang dalawa.
"Tito, Tita," bati ni Chase sabay beso.
"Hijo, oh my the last time I saw you was when before you graduated your masters," anang ginang.
"It's because you don't join me in social gatherings dear," sagot ng kanyang asawa kaya tumawa ito ng marahan.
"Chase here, is the representative of the Natividads in gatherings like this," the man explains.
"Yeah, parang ganun na nga tito," sagot naman ni Chase.
"Oh, wait, Yra? Where's your husband?", anang ginang kay Ara.
Bago pa man makapagsalita si Ara upang sabihin na kambal niya ang tinutukoy ng ginang ay si Chase na ang nagsalita pata sakanya.
"Oh actually tita, she's Ara, Yra's twin," Chase explains.
"Oh, sorry, but yes, I remember Yra talking about her twin sister, if I can remember clearly, you're a doctor, right hija?", tanong ng ginang.
"Ah, yes Ma'am, I'm Ara Saavedra," marahan na pagpapakilala niya.
Ngumiti naman ang ginang, "Oh my hija, call me Tita Marie instead, this is my husband Fredrico," the woman introduces themselves.
"This is your girlfriend, right Chase? I remembered talking to your dad about binding you and our daughter in marriage but your dad refuses because you're in a relationship with a Saavedra, wow, you two are strong," pagalala ni Tita Fredrico.
Napatanong si Ara sa sarili, does everyone in this room know about their past?
"Ah yes tito,"
"Buti naman at nagpakita na kayo publicly together, some might say you've broken up," ani Tito at marahan na tumawa.
Ngumiti na lamang si Ara.
"I can't see any ring Chase, I think it's about time to settle?," ano Tito.
"Maybe soon Tito," ani Chase at tumawa nalang din ng marahan.
"Senator Filamore!", sigaw ng isang lalaki na may ID, mukhang mga reporters ito.
Oh, so he's a senator, Ara thought that she should really watch TV sometimes.
"Is it true na may anak daw po kayo sa labas na tinatago niyo?", nagulat si Ara noong narinig ang tanong, pati si Chase ay may pagkagulat din.
Natahimik saglit si Tito, at tita was looking at him like she's expecting an answer too.
"No, my children are only Vashra, at Timothee," ani Tito Fred sa press.
