"It's so..." I'm so speechless. After a long drive, dinala ako ni Khiel sa isang beach resort sa Palawan. To be honest, I didn't expect na dito kami pupunta. Sa dami-dami ng naka-date ko ay halos lahat sila pare-pareho ng tactics or style. But Khiel is different. I mean! I don't know kung date nga ba itong ginagawa namin. "Come on." He said then left me inside the car. Nakita kong umikot sya sa parte ko at pinagbuksan ako. Pagkalabas ko ay doon ko lalong napagmasdan ang buong lugar. Kaunti lang yung mga tao dito at hindi sya crowded unlike sa ibang mga beach, may makikita ka din na mga foreigner sa paligid. Dito pa lamang sa bungad ay nakikita ko na kung gaano kaganda ang lugar, kaya nasisiguro ko na maganda lalo ang loob nito. "Staine Resort..." Pagbasa ko sa pangalan ng hotel na nakapaskil sa malaking gate nito. Napaka grande ng pagkakagawa ng gate, parang itong sinaunang disenyo ng mga mayayamang mansyon noon. May mga nakapalibot pa ditong hanging plants na nakadagdag ng maganda
"Oh you're here! Gosh, beautiful as ever!" Tita Alona exclaimed when she saw me together with my mother and father, as well as my older brother."It's nice to see you, tita." I greeted back. It's her son's birthday that's why we are here to celebrate with them. There are many people in this event and I can feel their stare to me and the people I am with. She smiled at me and kiss both my cheek which I obligue to do too.After the greetings, tita Alona escorted us to the table prepare for us. Pagdating namin doon may ilang mga nakaupo na at ang bakanteng upuan ay sakto lamang para sa aming apat. Kuya Ryan pulled my chair and help me settled in my seat—which I can do by myself though. I smiled at him as sign of grateful and then he settled himself on the seat beside me.Nilibot ko ang paningin ko sa mga kasamahan namin sa lamesa, ang iba ay pamilyar na sa akin ngunit may ilang bago sa paningin ko. My parents talk to them for
"Tapos mo na ba yung pinapagawa ko sayo, Rielle?" Mother ask, we are currently having our breakfast now, I, together with my father, mother and kuya Ry. I swallowed the food and wipe my mouth first before I talk."Malapit ko na po sya matapos, maybe by the end of the week I can show it to you, M-mom" I replied. Mother is asking me to complete the financial report of her business in Makati, she have her own business there and she ask me to work for her in the mean time, I want to object because I'd want to work with my kuya in the firm, but who am I to disobey them?"You really is slow, I already said to you yesterday that do it as soon as possible." She said. Kakasabi nya lang kase noon sakin kagabi bago kami pumunta sa gatherings kila Tita Alona. And she expect me to show it to her now? Do I look like a robot to her?&n
"Make yourself elegant in any possible way later, we will going to meet Mr. Weinstein and his son to close the deal." My father said over the phone. He called me in the middle of my working hours to told me that. Two days have passed after the news about me, getting married. I think this really is happening, huh?"Yes, dad. Ano po ba ang oras para maka uwi ako ng maaga mamaya?" I still manage to ask that question. I need to be ready for this because I should not disappoint them in any way."We'll come by exactly 7:00 in the evening, so make sure you already dressed up by that." He answered. I nod my head even though he can't see me."Okay, noted." I replied and he hung up the call without further ado, bumuntong hininga nalang ako dahil sanay na naman ako sa ganoong trato. I looked at my wrist watch to see what time is it now and it's already 3:30 pm. I think I will just finished half of these papers the
"So, uhm. Mr. Weinstein. This is my daughter, Asher, the one I'm talking about." My father uttered. Pinapakilala nya ako ngayon sa negosyanteng nasa harap namin."Hmm... I see." He replied and looked at me. Bagaman nasa matanda ang aking atensyon ay ramdam ko pa rin ang mariing titig ng lalaking nasa aking harapan, dahilan para mapainom ako sa tubig na nasa aking gilid."So, when is the wedding?" Said by Mr. Weinstein that make me choke. What the hell?Inabutan ako ng tissue ni kuya para gamitin pamunas ko sa aking bibig. Gosh! I lost my poise there, huh. Umubo pa ako ng ilang beses bago bumalik sa dati ang aking paghinga."You alright, hija?"
My eyes widened when his lips touched mine. I can feel the softness and tenderness of it. Halos sumabog na ang puso ko sa lakas ng kabog nito lalo na ng magsimulang gumalaw ang mga labi nya, ni hindi ko alam kung paano ang gagawin ko dahil...THIS IS MY FREAKING FIRST KISS!!!!Habang tumatagal ay hindi ko na lamang namalayan na nakapikit na aking mga mata, sa bawat dampi ng kanyang labi ay libo libong boltahe ang nararamdaman ko sa aking sarili, my hands flew on his broad chest, not to stop him, but I need to hold on for strength. He then, put his right hand on the small of my back to push me more to him.I don't know what I'm doing but I follow how his lips move,but to my surprised, he stop kissing me. Na offend ako sa ginawa nya, kung namumula na ang aking mukha kanina, ngayon ay pati ang tenga ko na. Sobrang lapit ng distansya naming dalawa, konting galaw ay muli na nama
He drive me to our house in that night and before we part ways he captured my lips again. He promised to fetch me here tomorrow."Why?" I asked. Nagtataka ako kung bakit nya ako susunduin bukas gayong wala naman nasabi sa akin si Dad."You'll see tomorrow. Now, go." He said, I saw how his gaze downed to my lips and absent mindedly, I bite the lower part of my lips, pero mabilis ko din na inalis dahil nakita ko ang kakaibang liyab sa mga mata nya ng ginawa ko yon."O-okay..." I replied then unbuckle my seatbelts so that I can leave his car now. But before I opened the door he pull me into him and the next thing I knew my lips is crushing unto his now. He slightly tilt his head to have more access to my lips, I opened my lips to welcome him and I suddenly got shocked when he flick
Alas syete palang ng umaga but I'm already wide awake. Usually kase ay mga 8:00 am ako nagigising, yun na din yung constant body clock ko. But today, I feel a shallow feelings within me that I manage to wake up early than na usual. Isang magandang ngiti muna ang pinakawalan ko bago ako nagpasyang bumangon na sa higaan, I reached out for my phone to check it before I tossed it back and start my morning routine. I was combing my hair infront of my vanity mirror, kakatapos ko lang maligo and kasalukuyan akong nag aayos na ng sarili ko, when my phone beep. I was expecting someone that's why I am excited to open my phone. But to my disappointed, it's my mom reminding me about the financial report. Good thing nag message lang sya sakin ngayon, pero kahit sa message ay parang naririnig ko pa rin ang boses nya. I finished fixing myself before having a final look on myself to my full size mirror. I was wearing a khaki colored shorts that cover half of my legs and partnered it with a same k
