Lock & Luck (A futuristic reality...)

Chapter 16: Acceptance

Matt's POV

We're on our flight back to Manila. Most of the times, I envelope her in my arms, we're both nervous and excited on what awaits us once we get back.

We've decided kasi to tell our parents, the soonest possible. 'Di ba nga kasi ang usapan, "No wasting of time, anymore."

When we arrived in NAIA terminal 3, nandun na yung Daddy niya with a body guard.

Lumapit agad ito sa anak at niyakap ng mahigpit. Parang isang taon nahiwalay sa kanila si Sarah.

Lumapit din ito sa akin sabay malakas na tapik sa balikat.

Daddy D: Kamusta?

Matt: Okay naman po.

Daddy D: Kamusta yung usapan natin? (Sabi nito na kulang na lang ay kainin ako.)

Matt: Marunong po ako tumupad ng usapan Tito.

Daddy D: Mabuti naman kung ganun.

Matt: Ah, Tito yung mga pasalubong ko po bukas na lang, dalhin ko na lang po sa bahay niyo.

Daddy D: Pupunta ka bukas?

Matt: Yes po. (Sabay tingin ko kay Sarah.)

Daddy D: Ayos ah! Kakagaling niyo lang sa bakasyon, dadalaw ka na agad? Walang pahi-pahinga?

Sarah: Tara na Daddy. Bukas na lang ang interview, miss ko na sila sa bahay (Salo nito sa pag-i-interrogate sa'kin ng Daddy niya.)

Sige na Matt, bukas na lang. Dinner, okay?

I just nod and kissed her on the cheek.

(Author's Note: Oh guys, i-clear ko lang, sa cheeks lang yung kiss na yun! Buti na yung malinaw... Wahaha! Naisingit ko yun! Kaloka!)

While having dinner in our abode in Alabang...

Mommy Glena: Matt, why you're smiling from ear to ear, eh?!

Daddy Gian: Have you scored already?! Are we expecting our 1st grandchild?

My Dad jokingly said which grant him a slap on his arm from my Mom.

Mommy Glena: Stop that, Sarah's not like that.

Daddy Gian: You really like her, do you? Just to slap me like that.

I'm having fun watching my parents like this.

Matt: Do you really like her that much, Ma? (Natatawa kong tanong.)

Mommy Glena: I just don't want you guys to talk about her like that.

Matt: But Mom... She's not my girlfriend anymore.

My mom's mouth flung open in surprise.
