RICHARD
she moved her face away, ano nanaman Dawn? may problema nanaman ba? Tanong ko sa sarili ko. I was still kneeling and I just looked at her she had her stoic look nanaman and my forehead creased in confusion "are you okay?" I said while playing with her hands, di siya sumagot. Hindi ko din siya ma gets so I just stood up and kissed her forehead, naguguluhan nanaman ako sa mood ni Dawn na napaka bilis mag bago so I went out the room and decided to smoke sa may garden. I was sitting down and nag iisip kung ano nanaman ba nagawa ko at parang pissed nanaman siya sakinDid Carla text her? Or even worse confronted her? Hindi ko na nga kinakausap si Carla eh. I was already on my second stick that's how much Dawn stresses me out jusko talo pa niya mga citizen sa Savion sa sobrang hirap timplahin. I was deep in thought when I felt a hand on my shoulder "you know that's bad for you" mom took the cigarette from my mouth and she put it out "hi mom" i said and smiled at her "can i seat?" "Of course naman" i said and scooted over. She was looking at my face and smiling "you're my most prized possession" she said and placed a hand on my cheek I leaned my head over it
"But you look like something's bothering you" she softly said "may problema ba?" I took a deep breath "si Dawn" when she heard that she sighed "anak iba kasi si Dawn" she said and took my hand "oh my callouses, you are working very hard" i was looking at my hand too kasi I got those callouses not by sitting i the office but actually helping out the city by being present in almost eveything "paanong iba?" I asked "well kasi hindi siya basta bastang babae like your old ones" she said and looked at me "ma naman, syempre iba iba sila ng ugali" i said and kissed her forehead. My momma the only who believes in me kahit sobrang pasaway ko kaya inakbayan ko siya and pulled her close kasi she means the world to me.
"Hindi yun ang ibig sabihin ko" "eh sige, ano?" She smiled and sighed "the reason we chose Dawn to be your wife is because we know she can be a strong woman who can handle herself around you and she can be a good partner" She said "other women can do that ma hindi lang si Dawn, i mean look at you" i said "ayun na nga I can see myself in her" "yuuck so nireto nyo ako sa likeness mo" i gagged kunyare and binatukan niya ako "gunggong, I mean look at us I can handle you and kaya I believe so can she" i was holding where mom hit me "ano yun babysitter ko siya ganon?"
"Hindi ganon, kasi look at it this way if ibang babae yan Richard would you even make an effort like you're doing right now?" My head was down tama siya kung ibang babae ibibigay agad lahat ng gusto ko "we can see what you're doing with her, you're also different around her" i looked at her confused "rich, we can all see that you're acting more responsible pag andiyan siya and me and your dad thinks its because you want her to like you" i just smiled kasi tama siya "oh see, kahit di mo sabihin we all noticed it" she kissed my cheek "pagpatuloy mo lang anak and word of advice may topak talaga kaming mag isip kaya adjust ka nalang" she said and stood up to go inside the house
I sat there for 5 more minutes just looking at the garden and decided to go up and sleep na. I saw Dawn in deep sleep already kaya I leaned in and kissed her cheek "i won't give up on you" i whispered and she flinched and faced the other side. I just smiled kala mo susukuan kita? Diyan ka nagkakamali, I will learn to play your game and go with your flow. Seryoso ako sa sinabing kong we will fix what we currently have.
DAWN
I woke up excited the next day kasi nga mag ocular inspection kami para sa venue ng birthday ni papa since 3 araw nalang ito we have to do it now and be clear with how we want everything to go. I sat down the bed and noticed some tulips on my bedside table, What is this? I picked it up and smelled it tapos I felt a card on the sideDawn,
I'm Sorry if I did anything yesterday or maybe even said something that you didn't agree with.Love,
Mayor PogiNatawa ako don sa pa pogi conceited talaga but his gesture also placed a smile on my face, he said sorry even though ako naman yung nag aact up kahapon. Where the hell did he even get the tulips from? Wala namang farm dito at alam kong mahirap humanap nito, I was asking myself while putting the flower in a makeshift vase. I went ahead and texted Richard kasi nga #effortnikoya
Thank you for the flowers 🙂 -D

*naks may pa emoji pa siya, well too bad it's not my thing*I went ahead and readied myself after our text because we're going to wherever Carla's resort is at. After kong mag ready ay bumaba na ako and lahat sila naka upo sa may garden nag brebreakfast "good morning beautiful" papa greeted me and kissed my forehead "how was your sleep?" Tita asked. Hmmmm bakit kaya "okay naman po" i said confused "upo na ate at excited na silang umalis" Von said "kamusta practice nyo kagabi?" I asked "shhhh" he said and nudged me "what practice?" Mama asked "ay yung para sa sports fest po ma hehe" he laughed nervously
"Secret yun para kay papa" he whispered "ahhh" i said "so hindi ko po talaga alam saan yung resort eh" i said "pero bago yun ano pala theme ng birthday mo dad?" I asked "uhmm siguro since maraming beaches dito medyo beach vibe" "alam ko na parang hawaiian" sabi ni tita "oo yun ganon" sabi ni papa "nako po we have to send the invitations asap" i said panicking "don't worry ate si mama na bahala diyan" Von smirked "eh online invitation nga ginawa ko sa dad mo I can easily alter it" mama said and napatingin lang ako sakanya
