Forgive
"How is your relationship?" I asked them both in the middle of the dinner.
No one responded so I looked at them and saw the tension in khinn's eyes.
"We're good, Ate. Happy." drake gave me an assurance smile.
I smiled back at him. But I am not satisfied. There is really something-
"Btw, what is your plan on your birthday, khinn?" Kuya Kheonn asked.
"I-I'm not sure yet, kuya.. May OJT pa ako kaya't hindi ko muna iniisip yan." sagot ni khinn.
Kumunot ang noo ko.
"Your debut is much more important than that. You must prepare for it! My god!" I exclaimed, irritatedly.
She get shocked that it made my instincts go up.
"P-pero ate.. matatapos narin naman 'yon. I can prepare for my debut for atleast a 3 weeks." she smiled nervously.
My blood boiled at what I heard.
Papagalitan ko na sana siya nang bigla namang tumayo si drake. Lahat kami ay napatigil at napatingin sa kanya.
"Seriously we're okay. Don't jump in any conclusions that come up in your head." he said directly at me
Napalunok ako.
"I'm sorry, If you'll excuse us." he look at mom.
Huminga si mommy ng malalim at napapikit ng mariin atsaka tumango.
Kinuha ni drake ang kamay ni khinn at hinila ito paalis ng dining area.
"Kheila, you know what you have to do after we eat. Next time, respect the food. Set aside the issues and let's eat peacefully." mommy said in an angry tone.
So, is it my fault?
Matapos kumain ay nagpunta ako ng veranda. Nandito ako ngayon sa makati sa mansion dahil nagpatawag ng family dinner si mommy.
Marami na kaming napag-usapan lalo na yung araw na napahamak ako. They didn't know that I'm with Dyllan. and I don't know how to tell them.
Habang nagmumuni-muni ay bigla namang tumunog ang phone ko.
From Dyllan:
Ang ganda pala ng view dito sa baba kapag ikaw ang nasa itaas.
Wtf? Napatingin tuloy ako sa baba at nakita siyang nakatingala sakin.
Sumenyas ako ng sandali at bababa ako.
"Manong, paki bukas naman po ng gate," pakiusap ko kay manong percy ng masalubong siya.
Tumango naman ito at agad na nagtakbo lakad papuntang gate.
Pagbukas ng gate ay agad na sumilay ang ngiti ni dyllan. He opened his arms wide, expecting a tight hug from me.
Umiling ako. He pouted. eww.
"They didn't know yet." I exclaimed
It's been 2 weeks since we've started dating. Hindi naman sa gusto ko siyang i-secret but I am buying some time.
Hinawakan niya ang mga kamay ko. He caresses my ring finger that it made my heart skipped a beat.
Nahalata niya iyon kaya ngumisi siya sakin.
"Kinikilig ka," sambit niya
"Why am I?" inosente kong tanong
Nagkibit-balikat siya.
