Except Mom and Asher, we all gather at the dining table when kuya spoke. "How's your internship, Stell?"
"Good" I replied
"Glad to hear that!" Ani kuya
Asher P.O.V
"Hon. Let's eat" ani ng ama ni Stell. "Have your sit, Hijo" he added.
"Thank you, Sir" I replied
"Hijo, I told you to just call us Tita and Tito, if you want you can call us Mom and Dad-"
"Mom" Stell reacted.
"Why?" ani ng Ina ni Stell. Stell just behave and start to eat as she blushed.
"Sure, Tita" I replied, and a threatening glare was sent to me by Stell, HAHAHA. She looks cute though.
Shone scoff "I thought you still like him...you know who's I'm talking about" Ani Shone. She really like him that much? Oh, should I announce and celebrate my defeat?
"Kuya" Stell warn his brother.
Shaking his head with a scoff, he answered, "Fine!"
She already knew how I feel about her, and she would probably never see me again – I know this day would come but I didn't expect that day would be today. I have to accept and respect her decision even its hurt...but I don't know if I can. Whatever her answer will be I hope she will give me a chance.
"Congratulations on your promotion, Dad!" Shaina and his siblings greeted his father
"Wow! Congrats, Tito!" ani Janina. "Congratulations, Tito" I greeted him.
"Thank you! We should celebrate! Boys, let's have a shot!" Tito Anthony says.
"Dad! You, Kuya, and Asher has work tomorrow." Ani Stell
"It's okay, Hija. What time are you going to work, Asher?"
"10 in the morning, Tito." I replied
"Will you join us? You can stay at Stell's room until you sober-"
"Saan kami matutulog ni Janina?" Stell cut her dad off
"We can sleep with Shaina, right Shaina?" ani Janina, she really is my cousin
"Of course! We can have girl talk." She replied excitedly.
"But-" ani Stell
"Come on, Hija. Just for tonight. Will you join me and my son, Asher?"
"Of course, Tito." I replied
The three of us are having talks about business habang nag iinuman – Stell on the other hand are having talk with her younger sister and my cousin. She smiles a lot and look innocent while talking – this girl really made me fall to her harder and harder that makes it impossible to let go of her.
"Hey!" Ani Shone. "Do you like my sister? I mean...Do you like her romantically?" he asks
That rendered me speechless. I am nervous.
"Do you like my daughter? I notice you looking at her." Her dad asks.
Woah! I am really nervous. "Yes." I said confidently, "Tito, Shone I really like Stell, I really am."
"And? What did she say? Is she aware that you like her?" Ani Shone
I nod my head "Hmm...but I don't think she likes me too."
"How did you know?" Tito asks
"I just feel...I am not sure." I really don't know and its hurts.
"You just feel? What the hell? You doubt my sister's feeling to you, don't you? Ask her first, idiot" Shone replied angrily
Did he just call me an idiot? No one dare to say like that to me but because he's the brother of the woman I like I will let this pass "It's not like that...I know he likes someone else, but I am ready to wait for her if she let me...if she gives me a chance" I replied. "I also want to ask your permission...if I can stay by her side for as long as she wants me."
"What if she doesn't want you to stay by her side?" Shone asks.
I don't know. I know that I don't just like her...I know – only me who knows what I feel and it's not just like but love. Yes, I love her. Its love that's why I am willing to wait, I am willing to make her love me but if he doesn't want me to I don't fucking know what I should do.
"Ask her" they said in unison.
