Ms.Nobody is Courting The Prince

PART 6: First Date is a DISASTER

Hello.

I’m Reira Nobody and right now, pinaghihintay kong mag-isa ang Ranger Vessalius dun sa gitna ng fountain ng Carnival.

In actuality, kanina pa ko dumating 30 minutes early pero nung sinbi ko sa Ate kong magling na may date ako. She said, “Arrive 15 minutes late! Pagintayin mo yung lalaki! Kung umalis sya dahil late ka then he’s not a good guy. Okay? Got that already? Remember. 15 minutes late. Woman is allowed to be late. Bye!”

At yun.. ang nangyri…

“Kuya. Pwede pong magpa-picture?” I rolled my eyes, making silip at him again, meron na namang isa. I mean kanina pa nangyayari yan pero ang gwapong lalaki, Malay ko ba, ayaw nyang tumanggi.

Tiningnan ko yung orasan ko, 30 seconds more.. pwede na kong lumabas. Oh. And so you know, di ako naka-gown or something, actually I’m just wearing a pants and a hoodie. Plus.. well, nag heels na ko khit di ako sanay.. *ehem* Kasi.. syempre.. >_<

…Pa-cute effect…

Okay. Time to…

….go? I stop myself when I saw Ranger sa circle ng sangkababaehan..!! I sigh. Napapaligiran na sya ng babae ngayon!! Anong gagawin ko?? Di naman ako pwedeng pumunta dun at magsabi ng “Hi! Ranger! San date natin ngayon??” Malamang sa malamang papatayin nila ko!! Pero kanina pag nagiintay si Papa Ranger..

“Reira?” I turn to my side at nakita ang muka ni Ranger, “Ranger.” I muttered at ngumiti lang sya sa akin, “Nandito ka lang pala.”

I smile. “Kanina pa ko nagiintay.” He said and I just nodded, looking behind him and seeing all of them looking at us. Wah… For sure I won’t have a date in peace. And this is supposed to be a job well done for Reira Chevalier!

“Let’s go?”

“Okay.”

“San mo gustong pumunta?” I look away, san nga ba?? “Sa..sa gusto mo?” I replied, wah… ang hirap ng sagot ko!! Ano ka ba naman, Reira! Take the lead! “Sa mga games.” I said again and he smile, “Para kang si Mel.”

Si Prinsesa na naman… anyway use that to start a topic..! “Kamusta pala si Mel-Miss Melody?”

 

“She’s fine. But why ask about Mel? We can have other conversation.” He said at nagsimula na kaming maglakad.. Grabe… ang hirap! Alam mo yung hindi ka sanay sa heels tpos yun ang sinuot mo? Anyway, highway. “Di ba ikaw ang nagsabi na hindi panliligaw ang interview?”

Ranger smile again.

“I see. Then find a way to entertain me.”
