Tame The Bad Boy

Chapter 58: Luke

Proposal

I've been very busy these past few weeks dahil sa birthday celebration namin ni Lily. Though mom hired an event organizer team for us who will help us with the stuffs, gusto pa rin namin ng kambal ko na maging hands on kami on everything especially me who's a big fan of Harry Potter since I am merely twelve.

Sa K Hotel gagawin yung party where we rented an enormous function room na pinagtulungan namin lahat na i design to make it look like the Great Hall in Hogwarts. We also attached flags of the four houses sa mga walls and ceilings and of course in the middle is the legendary sorting hat. Malaking halaga na ang nagagatos namin magkapatid but mom and our grandparents seems to don't mind about it. Pinanindigan kasi talaga namin ang theme na Harry Potter. Even our drinks are butter beers na talagang naghanap pa kami ng marunong gumawa. Wands naman ang giveaways namin na forty thousand pesos ang ginastos namin overall for a hundred person. Actually, gusto pa nga nila na i guest si JK Rowling pero kami na rin ni Lily ang tumutol dahil sobra sobra na yun.

Since this is the first time that we're going to throw a big party, katakot takot ang bilang ng mga bisita na imbitado sa birthday namin ni Lily. Most of them are my grandparents' friends in the business and social circle at syempre mga kaklase at kaibigan namin ni Lily.

"Baby.." Anna said softly with her usual unsure eyes na nitong mga nakaraan madalas kong makita. Yung tipong parang may gusto siyang sabihin sa'kin pero hindi niya masabi.

These past few weeks kahit na abala ako hindi ko pa rin nakakaligtaan mapansin na may kakaiba sa kanya. At nagsimula yun nung manggaling kami sa kulungan at ipagtapat ko na sa kanya ang sekreto ko na yun. Iniisip ko na lang na hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin siya makaget over dun kaya hinahayaan ko na lang siya. Anyway, I have to be thankful cause despite of that hindi niya ako iniwan.

But then, kapag naalala ko yung nangyari nung araw na yun may umaahon na naman na galit sa'kin especially nung nasuntok ko siya nung bigla na lang siya sumulpot out of nowhere. Nagkapasa pa nga siya nun na wala pa siyang plano aminin sana sa'kin if it wasn't for the fact that we made love the day after that.

I smiled at her at nilapitan siya para halikan. "Yes, baby?" I murmured between our kiss. She moaned softly then pulled herself away from me nung dumako ang kamay ko sa hita niya.

"Nasa baba lang sila mommy, baby. May sasabihin ako sa'yo mamaya pagtapos ng party" she said dead serious.

Napakunot ang noo ko at tinignan lang siya. She keeps on swallowing hard and she won't even meet my eyes. Nakaupo lang siya and looking down at her entwined fingers on her lap.

"Bakit ba seryoso ka ata? Is that something serious?" I asked then a thought occured to me "Buntis ka ba?"

She shot her eyes up to me in a surprised manner kasabay ng sunod sunod na pag iling.

"Eh ano yun at bakit ganyan ka kaseryoso?" hindi kasi ako mapalagay sa hitsura niya ngayon. Actually, nag uumpisa na nga akong kabahan. I hate it when she's this serious because it reminds me of her when she told me about Brie. Ano na naman kaya tong sinesekreto niya sa'kin? May plano pa naman ako mamaya na gagawin ko during the party that will really surprise her.

"Basta mamaya ko na sasabihin. Okay?" sabi niya. Kahit hindi ako lubos na sang ayon dun, tumango na lang ako. Sigurado rin naman ako that it's not something I should be afraid of.

Since we are the celebrants, nauna kami ng kapatid ko sa hotel. We rented a presidential suite kung saan kami aayusan especially siya na babae. Magkaiba kasi ang house namin. Gryffindor siya habang ako naman Slytherin. Nag suggest pa yung beautician namin na kukulayan ng puti ang buhok ko so I'll look like Draco Malfoy but I declined. Though grandpa will dress up as Albus Dumbledore and si grandma naman will be Professor McGonagall. Nakakatawa nga na mas excited pa sila kaysa sa'min.
