Surprise

We have called Kevin yesterday as we calm down from the letter I received, muntik ng mabasag ang speaker ng aking phone dahil sa kaniyang tili, he even told me na he'll sponsor the basketball team on their barangay as his rejoice. Every corner of our house was coated in triumph, even Daddy go home early just to celebrate with us, ang kaninang inis na naramdaman ay hinipan na ng hangin at napalitan ng kagaanan sa dibdib.

"Oh! I should invite the Pattinson too!" si Mommy, kinaumagahan sa breakfast.

Natigilan ako sa pagtuhog ng ham sa aking plato. Nakasimangot akong bumaling sa kaniya tila pagod na sa paulit ulit na usaping ito.

"They are family friends Camila, so out of respect," si Mommy sa malumanay na boses.

"I don't want something too grand Mom," sambit ko.

"What—No! We'll make it the celebration of the year!" aniya. "I'll invite some famous designers and business tycoons too! That would be the event that every being would dream of!"

"Mom, isn't it too early to celebrate?" sambit ko pagkatapos sumimsim sa aking baso. "I was invited for the casting, yes. But I'm not yet officially the model of the company."

"Your daughter has a point, Barbara." Si Daddy na binigyan ko ng ngiti sa pag sang ayon sa akin.

"Oh come on!" madramang utas ni Mommy.

"I—mean Mommy we'll have the grand celebrations you wanted, but after. After my casting alright?" ani ko.

If we publicize the news this early, this may have applied pressure to my team and especially for me, and of course I don't want that to happen. Sabi nga nila wag mag bilang ng sisiw hangga't hindi pa nangingitlog ang manok. At isa pa, I don't want to expect things, I let them thrilled me.

Sa huli ay nakumbinse din namin si Mommy, with the help of Dad of course, ang kondisyon 'nga lang ay mas engrande ito dahil dalawang okasyon na ang nag daan.

"There'll be a celebration 'nga after," sambit ko kay Jumi.

Nasa aking kwarto siya ngayon, nakahilata sa aking kama. Nang malaman kasi ang balita nitong umaga ay agad siyang sumugod dito.

Ngumiwi siya. "Para namang hindi mo kilala si Tita! She loves party just to show her bags and jewelries," aniya. "Bilis na! Wala ka bang pera?"

I scoffed and pointed my face.

"You are talking with the wrong person, Jumilyn." Ani ko. "I can even buy your dreams, magkano ba?"

Tumawa siya at binato ako ng unan.

"Oh! Kaya nga! Ang kuripot mo!" asik niya. "Tayo lang nina Liam, alam mo na small celebration lang," she wiggled her brows, convincing me on her idea.

"Alam na ba ni David?"

Umiling ako at ngumuso. "I plan sana to tell him personally, I want to see his reaction,"

She snapped her fingers and seated. "What if...puntahan natin sila ngayon?"

"Ngayon...mismo?"

She nodded. "Oo, Liam gave me his schedule. Naiwan niya kasi sa condo ko last time 'yung libro niya."

Napangiti ako at agaran na 'din tumango. "You really are using your brain, Maria Jumilyn!"

Mabilis kaming nag ayos ni Jumi, she left some of her clothes here so she has a chance to change. I give detail on my looked specially to the clothes I'll wear.
