"Saan ka pala pumunta pagkatapos? I tried contacting your friends, ang iba'y gulat dahil dumating ka raw," ani Ara.
"Bumalik na ako kaagad ng Spain pagkatapos," tipid na sagot naman ni Chase
Their conversation was cut off as their orders were served on the plate.
Hindi naman na muna sila nagusap dahil kumain na sila, tinignan ni Chase si Ara, na kumakain ng mapayapa, Ara looked at him at their eyes met.
"S-sorry, di kasi ako nakakain ng lunch," ani Ara na tila ba nahihiya sa nakita ni Chase.
Chase let out a chuckle before answering.
"It's okay, you look cute," ani Chase bago kunin ang tissue na nasa gilid nito at ipinahid sa gilid ng labi ni Ara.
Natawa naman ng kaunti si Ara bago sila magpatuloy kumain.
"Gusto mo pa?," tanong ni Chase noong natapos na ni Ara ang kanyang pagkain.
"No, I'm full, thank you," sagot naman ni Ara bago siya nginitian nito.
Nakipagtalo pa ng kaunti si Ara kay Chase patungkol sa bill ng pagkain nila pero sa huli ay si Chase parin ang nanalo at nagbayad.
"Do you have work tomorrow?," tanong ni Chase bago sila pumasok sa sasakyan nito.
"Yes, pero 7pm pa," sagot naman ni Ara.
Pumasok na muna silang dalawa bago magsalita ulit si Chase.
"May gusto ka bang puntahan?," tanong sakanya ni Chase, it was only 8pm kaya naman may oras pa para pumasyal.
"None that I can think of," sagot naman ni Ara.
But Chase got an idea.
"Then I know where to take you," ani Chase sabay ngiti.
Chase drove and Ara quietly looked at the surroundings they pass by while playing songs in Chase's car.
Umupo ng matuwid si Ara nung makita niya saan sila papunta, she was familiar with the way.
"C-Chase, gabi na," hindi alam ni Ara bakit siya nautal pero lumakas ng kaunti ang tibok ng puso niya.
"Don't worry, I informed them earlier," ani Chase looking at Ara for a bit then focusing on the road afterwards.
Finally, the car stopped, and Ara was right, Chase parked before they open the doors of the car.
Bago pa man pindutin ni Chase ang doorbell ay bumungad na sakanila si Brie.
"Finally!," Brie shouts in excitement.
"Pasok na kayo, mom and dad are waiting," Brie said before giggling kaya napangiti naman si Ara doon.
Chase didn't inform her na pupunta pala sila sa bahay ng mga magulang nito, heck, ni-hindi siya nakapag-ayos man lang.
She was just wearing a beige sleeveless top and matched it with a faded high waisted jeans while her hair was tied in a bun.
"Sana sinabi mo sakin, para naman nakapag-ayos man lang ako," Ara whispered to Chase habang naglalakad sila papasok sa pinto ng bahay.
"You're already so pretty, you don't need to worry," Chase assures her before they enter and see Chase's mom and dad sitting on a chair in the living room.
Umupo naman na rin si Brie sa upuang nasa gilid ng ina.
Pinauna ni Chase si Ara umupo bago siya, may nakahain na inumin at pagkain sa lamesa.
