PROLOGUE

Nameet ko s'ya when im in highschool.

"Anak?" Tawag sa 'kin ni Mommy mula sa labas ng pintuan ko.

"Yes, Mom?" I'm dressing myself up. Mom said we will have visitors.

"Are you done?"

"I'm about to finish," Sagot ko at tinapos na ang ginagawang pag aayos sa sarili. "I'm done, you can now come in."

"You look gorgeous, My dear!" Mom said.

"Thank you po," I flashed a charming smile.

"Come on, your Tita Fely is here with her son." Mom said as she placed her arms around my shoulders, and guide me outside my room.

"You said, we will have visitors?" I curiously asked. Wala kasing sinabi si mommy na name kahapon.

Mom laughed. "I'm sorry My dear, hindi ko nasabi sa'yo, i was excited when your Tita Fely informed me that she will gonna visit us tomorrow." Mom flashed a cheeky grin. I just smile at her, My mom is kind and a great mother. She is also calm even she's mad. A lot of people says i am like her.

Nagpatuloy kami sa paglalakad at bumaba na sa aming living room. And there, i saw Tita Fely with a big smile. There's a man beside her, i don't know him but he seems familiar. Hindi na nakahintay si Tita sa paglapit namin, sinalubong na niya kami, sumunod 'yong lalaki.
By the way, Tita fely is My Mom's Bestfriend since highschool.

"Gorgeous as ever Nathalie!" She kissed me in my cheeks and also Mom's.

"Thank you po." I smiled shyly.

"Opps! i almost forgot HAHA! Isaac, come here," Tita Fely signal the serious guy to come in her side. "This is my second son, Isaac."

"Hello," I smiled at him, and offered him a handshake. Tumango lang siya at hinawakan ang kamay ko. His hands are rough and big. Saglit lang 'yon pero pinamulahan na 'ko. There's in him that makes me blush and i don't know why.
'Di naman ako ganito sa iba.

"Halika, maupo muna tayo rito, fely." Sabi ni Mommy at lumapit kay Tita Fely. Naiwan tuloy kami ni Isaac dito sa malapit sa sala. He's staring at me intently kaya hindi ko s'ya matingnan ng diretso.

Gosh, bakit n'ya ako tinitingnan ng gan'yan? May dumi ba sa mukha ko? Awkward.

"T-tara na roon," Nakaiwas pa rin ang aking paningin sa kan'ya.

"Why can't you look at me?" Seryosong sabi niya in his manly tone. Mas lalo akong nailang.

"W-wala, let's go." I know it's rude pero tumalikod na 'ko sa kan'ya. Hindi ko kasi kinaya ang hiya, mas mapula pa ako sa kamatis.

Dumiretso ako kila Mommy at Tita Fely na nagtatawanan. Naupo ako sa tabi ni Mommy.

"Tita, where's Tito Ismael?" I asked. Kanina ko pa napapansin na wala si Tito.

"He's with your Dad, talking such," Tita answered. "By the way, anong grade mo na, iha?"

"I'm a grade 10 student this year, junior highschool,"

"Oh? Is that so? My Isaac here is a grade 12 student, you're in the same school, 'no?" Hindi ko napansin si Isaac na nasa tabi na ni Tita. Nagulat din ako sa sinabi ni Tita.

Kami? Same school? Kaya pala pamilyar s'ya.

Nagtagal pa sila sa amin, kuwentuhan at kamustahan ang naganap. Pagkatapos naming maglunch lahat ay umuwi na rin sila. They're one of the busy people in town. Hindi pa rin ako makatingin kay Isaac, 'pag titingin kasi ako ay nakatingin din siya, hindi lang simpleng tingin 'yon. Mabibigat na tingin na nakakailang.

Simula noong una naming pagkikita ay laging nagkukrus na ang landas naming dalawa.
