Love You to the Internet and Back (Influencer Series #1)

10

It's almost 6 PM and napakarami ng text na na-receive ko kay Keith. Sabi niya ang nakapag-suot na siya ng outfit niya. Same as me, I already prepared kanina pang mga alas-tres.

I asked Sofia to call her make-up artist para papuntahin dito sa house ko. She agreed and she's coming, too. Dito na rin daw siya magpe-prepare.

"Is this good?" she showed me a golden necklace na bagay na bagay sa suot niyang golden gown.

Tumango ako at kinuha ko sa kamay niya iyon. I went to her back and put it on her neck. "There."

"By the way, I tried calling Claire but she's not answering eh," she said habang inaayos ang mahaba niyang buhok.

"Oh? Baka busy. Alam mo namang hindi na kami gaanong nag-uusap Sof," sabi ko sa kaniya.

She smiled sadly. "Sana talaga maayos niyo na ang problema niyo."

I didn't answer her. Instead, I sat on a chair at hinayaang gawin ng make-up artist ang mukha ko.

"I really like your face. Napaka fierce ng dating kahit hindi na lagyan ng make-up. Kaya may I suggest na lagyan na lang ito ng light make-up?" tanong ng baklang make-up artist.

"Do what you think fits me better Jake," I told him. After a few minutes ay natapos rin ang mukha ko. I looked... elegant and fierce. As what he said earlier. I already did my hair earlier and its mermaid curl is really catching my attention. My brown wavy hair freely touched my lower back, almost touching my butt.

I put on an earrings that complimented my dress. My dress has a slit cut on the right leg kaya nadedepina ang mahaba kong binti.

"Oh god! You're. So. Gorgeous!" Sofia complimented me. I smiled at her and complimented her back.

Nilingon ko ang window at nakitang parating na ang isang mahabang itim na limousine. Is this Keith's? It's possible.

Before I could asked one of our maids to check who's car was that, a beep from my phone rang.

Keith:

I'm here ;)

Natawa ako sa text niya. What's with the emoji?

May narinig akong pekeng umubo. I roam my eyes at nakita kong nakatayo si Yohenda sa doorway. "Nandito boyfriend mo."

My eyes widened. I know I said that he's my boyfriend pero siya pa lang ang una kong sinabihan non! Ni si Keith ay hindi yon alam! All he know is, he's still courting me. Oh gosh, mukhang mabubuking ako neto!

Tumili si Sofia sa likod ko. Agad akong napalingon sa kaniya. She was smiling so wide and her eyes were almost gone dahil sa sobrang ngiti niya. "Sinagot mo na?!"

Agad siyang dumalo sa akin at tumalon talon habang yakap yakap ako.

"Y-yeah, kahapon," kahit 'di naman talaga. Shit! Anong idadahilan ko kay Keith 'pag nalaman niya! Ugh!

"Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" medyo matagal pa siyang nag-celebrate sa nalaman niya tapos bahagya siyang lumapit sa tenga ko. She whispered something. "Is this for the show? Or totoo 'to?"

I just shrugged. Hindi ko alam Sofia. Hindi ko alam. Maybe for him, this is all a game. At ayoko ring magmukhang desperada dahil nagse-self proclaim akong boyfriend ko siya! No way!
