The Unchained Melody (Moonstone Series: 1)

Chapter 15

Isang simpleng handaan lamang ang naganap ng dumatin ang aking kaarawan. Sila Ivan at ang mommy at Daddy nya lamang ang dumalo sa magaganap na dinner.

I was just wearing a red halter dress with my stilettos. I look matured already with my dress I am wearing right now, Inilugay ko lang din ang kulot kong buhok. I heard from mommy that tita Elena and tito Galen is already here kasama si Ivan.

I looked at my phone just to check Zarius' text.

Zarius:
Coming. I love you...

Napangiti naman ako then I typed my reply.

Ako:
Okay, I love you too.

He didn't know that its my day today. Sakto naman na may kumatok. I guess its mommy.

I'll just get my pouch, mamaya din kase ipapaalam kong may pupuntahan kami ni Zarius.

"Wow! You look stunning tonight, my daughter. I cant believe you're an adult now, I feel sad." Puri ni mommy, natawa naman ako.

"Mommy..."

"Parang dati lang tumatakbo ka lang sa sala habol habol ng daddy mo." I smiled matapos noon ay sabay na kaming bumaba.

I saw the three of them together with my dad.

"Wow! Ang ganda naman unica hija!" Nakangiting ani ni tita Elena. They all stand when they saw me.

Si Ivan ay nakapamulsa habang nakangiti din.

Pumunta ako sakanila at nag mano.

"Good evening po." Magalang kong sabi.

"Happy birthday, hija." Ani ni tito Galen.

"Oh my Gosh! Happy birthday hija! You're already 19!" Tapos ay niyakap ako ni tita.

"Thank you po."

Tumingin ako kay Ivan.

"Happy birthday kulet..." He just said then hugged me.

"Thank you, Ivan." Then I hugged him back.

"I wonder if you have already boyfriend hija, meron na nga ba?" Pang asar ni tita Elena, my face heated up. Narinig kong tumawa si mommy at daddy habang si Ivan naman ay kumunot ang noo.

"What? Schoolaholic yan si Ysla kaya malabo." Sabay irap ni Ivan.

"You never know hijo," sabi ni Tita Elena.

Naghalukip ako at pinag laruan ang mga daliri ko.

"Ahm actually you'll meet him later, I invited him." Tatlo silang nanlaki ang mata lalo na si Ivan.

"Really?!"

"What?"

I bit my lip about their reaction, habang nakangiti lang ang mga magulang ko.

"Ano ka ba, Ivan. Ysla's already 19 kaya hindi na dapat tayo magulat. But of course, we know that Ysla's know her prioritizes right?" Tumango naman ako sa sinabi ni Tita.

"Yeah. Andrea and I trust our daughter." Tugon ni Dad.

"Tsk. Bakit hindi ko alam? Kelan pa?" I bit my lip, kelan nga ba? If I know its the last week of October, I guess.

"Ahmm."

"Ivan! Dont pressure her!" Suway ni tita at tumingin naman sakin. "Pasensya na hija, he's just over protective to you."

"Its okay po."

"Tsk." Ivan tsked. Nagtatampo siguro sya dahil hindi ako nag kukwento sakanya. But anyways, Soobin's on my room, she's already sleeping.
