I Love You? I Love You Not. ( Revised ) (On-Hold)

Chapter 2

Christel's POV

I ordered a Mango Bravo in Café de France

" Here's your order, ma'am. Hope you will come here again. " He smiled.

I stared at him. I am thinking if i know him or what. " Wait, do i know you? "

" Yes, Ma'am. I am Ken, the one you bumped in the park. " He smiled again.

" Oh! Can we have a seat and talk for a couple of minutes? "

" Sure, wait. " He left then he went inside their kitchen

Then after a minute he came back. " Sorry i just cooked something. "

"No problem. But, First of all, cut the ' ma'am ' part. Just call me Christel. And sure, no problem. I can wait for you. I just want to talk to you about something. " I smiled.

" 5 minutes is short, but.. It's enough. I am just gonna ask, did you have any injuries? "

" None. I was okay, a little scratch didn't hurt. " He smiled.

" I'm so sorry. I was just in a hurry. " I apologized.

" No, no. It was okay. Thanks for apologizing anyways. "

" You're welcome. "

" Christel, can i we exchange number so we can contact each other sometimes? "

" Sure, it's 09272527428 " i smiled.

" Got it, mine's 09272168210 "

" So, what's your work here? "

" I am the chef at the same time the boss here. I own this restaurant. "

" Cool. When did you opened this? "

" For about a year from now, "

" Oh, "

" Uh Sir, Ma'am. Pasensya na po kung ma aabala ko po kayo, pero Sir. Mendoza, malapit na po matapos yung niluluto mo. " Someone said.

" Ah, " He stood up, and so did i. " I guess i have to go " We lend each other our hand.

" Nice meeting you again, Ken, " i smiled. " Bye. "

We both smiled at each other.

I left at their restaurant, it was nice meeting him.

He's handsome, pero mas gwapo si Tom ko no. *laughs*

Nung nakapasok na ako sa Jazz ni Tom, binati nya ako. " Hey, "

" Hi. " i laughed. " I met someone there. The owner. "

" Good for you. " He started the engine.

" So where are we going? "

" To your house? Remember, it's your mother's birthday. "

" Of course i remember. It's just, i haven't gotten her a gift yet. "

" You're a gift to her. And i am thanking her that she gave me you. " I blushed at his sentence. He really is sweet. " You're blushing. How cute. " He laughed.

" It's your fault. " i said innocently.

After minutes of Tom driving, we arrived at our house.

" We're here. "

" I know. " i said.

We went outside the car and went inside our house.

I saw mom at the living room reading a magazine. " Hi mom. " i kissed her cheeks. I lend her the cake. " Happy Birthday! "

" Thank you, Christel. " Mom smiled.

" What's that smell? Smell's delicious! "

Mom laughed. " Your father is cooking steak and such. He said that i should rest because it's my birthday today. How can he be sweeter diba? " We both laughed.

" Tom is here, Mom. "

Tom walked near mom. " Hi tita. " He held my mom's hand and placed his forehead on her hand. But mom took her hand and shook her head.

Mom stood up and hugged Tom. " You shouldn't do that. I am your girlfriend's mother. "

Tom seemed surprised. " Okay, Tita. "

" And don't call me tita. Call me 'mom' too. "

" Okay, mom. "

" Lunch is ready! " I heard dad shouted.

The rest of the day was fine. We had a lovely conversation with my parents and Tom. Even though we are wealthy, we do not choose those fancy birthdays. We are simple, yet wealthy.
