Almost one week kaming hindi nag kita ni Kienn. Yung last naming pagkikita ay doon sa bahay ni Mommy, the family dinner daw kuno. We were both busy with work. Tumatawag naman siya every night at kagabi, he texted me.
Mom's birthday tommorow. You're invited.
I tried to call him kagabi but he's not picking up my calls. Kaninang umaga, tumawag siya.
(Susunduin kita mamaya, 6 PM. Okay?)
"What? Hey! I don't even have a pretty dress!" sabi ko.
(It's fine. You can wear anything.) he said, chuckling.
"Duh! Formal attire nga eh!" binuksan ko yung cabinet ko at nag simula na mag hanap ng damit.
(Kaya nga!) he said. We were both silent for a while.
"Anyway, did your mom really invites me?" tanong ko. I heard him sigh.
(She didn't. But since you are my girlfriend, I want you to come.) tumigil ako sa paghahanap. Bumalik ako sa kama.
(Do you wanna come?) he asked. Matagal akong nag isip.
"Invited ba si Cindy?" I asked.
(Yeah. They are invited. Your mom, your step father, and Yssa.) bumuntong hininga ako.
"Fine. I'm going."
(Really?! Okay! I'll pick you up later!) he ended the call.
It's already 5 PM at kaninang 3 PM pa ako naka bihis. I'm so nervous! What if she didn't like me? What if she finds me ugly? Ugh!
I'm wearing a white pants suit na may white tube sa ilalim ng blazer. Hindi ko na ito binutones para kita yung tube sa ilalim. Suot ko yung necklace na bigay ni Kienn. Naka YSL black heels ako and YSL black clutch bag.
I'm all ready now. I'm just waiting for the clock. Ang tagal mag 6 PM!
"Oh! Nandiyan na ata boyfriend mo!" si Grace na nakahiga sa sofa. Dali-dali akong tumayo at tumakbo sa pintuan.
"Hi." I awkwardly smiled. He is wearing a long sleeve polo na nakatupi hanggang siko paired with a black jeans. Simple but it's fit him perfectly. His 10 inches hair was messy but it looks hot on him.
"Let's go?" I nodded nervously.
"San tayo?" I asked him while he's driving the car.
"Sa bahay lang." he said without glancing at me.
"You mean, sa bahay nyo?"
"Yup." I shifted on my seat. The last time that I met his parents is not really good.
"Don't worry, I will stay with you no matter what." he glanced at me and smiled.
The car stopped in front of a big gate. Nauna akong lumabas sa kaniya ng kotse, I waited for him. The guard open the gate when he saw Kienn.
"Good evening sir, ma'am." he greeted. I just smiled at him awkwardly. Kienn held my hands to ease my nervousness.
Maraming bisita. Sobra. Hindi ko masasabing lahat ng nandito ay matatanda dahil marami din namang kasing edad ko at teenagers. Sa garden nagkalat ang mga bisita pero may mga tao rin sa loob ng bahay.
Maraming kumakausap kay Kienn while we were walking pero hindi niya rin naman pinapahaba ang usapan maybe, because of me.
Pumasok kami sa front door ng bahay. It was actually big. Pero mas malaki parin yung bahay nila sa isla. Sa sala ay may nag kukumpulang tao.
