"Dad, mom, I'll go ahead" I said as I kissed them on their cheeks.
"Your keys" dad handed me my keys that was left beside my plate.
I rushed back to get it from him and mouthed him 'thank you'.
I'm on the rush right now because I just got a message from my head mentorfor the writing competition that they have to talk to me right now about the other schools that'll be joining the competition.
Mabilis akong tumakbo papalabas ng pinto ng biglang tinawag muli ako ni Mom dahilan ng pag tigil ko bago ko pa tuluyang mahawakan ang pinto sa harap ko
"Your phone. " mom said while looking at it. "The meeting was canceled and was moved to 1 pm, this afternoon. And Giannis is outside " mom smiled at me and got to finally hand me my phone.
Napakunot ang noo ko rito at agad na binuksan ang phone ko para muling basahin ang message.
Argh! Nag madali pa naman ako sa pag aayos. Tsk.
"Aren't you going to call Giannis inside?" Malisyosang tingin ng nanay ko sa akin.
"Ummm. O-okay." What is he doing here? He's so early!
Nag lakad ako papalapit sa pinto. Sa totoo lang hindi ako sigurado kung gusto ko ba talagang papasukin si Giannis ngayon dito sa bahay.
Hindi ko alam kung anong mukha ang ihaharap ko sa kaniya ngayon lalo na sa naging reaksyon ko sa lahat ng sinabi niya kahapon.
Damn it! If you thought I said what I'm thinking yesterday, I didn't. I didn't even tell him a single thing until we finall reached home.
The only freakin' thing I was able to tell him was 'bye'! Isn't that stupid?!
I didn't even know where did I got the nerve to sit next to him until we finally got home yesterday. Then now, this early!?
I can see him standing outside the gate while leaning his back on his car's door.
"Hey," agad itong napatayo ng maayos ng buksan ko ang gate.
"C-come in" I forced myslef to not smile at him awkwardly but hell,I cant!
"Ah.. Nasa loob pa ba si tita at tito?" Tanong nito sa akin habang naglalakd kami papasok ng bahay papunta sa dining kung saan kumakain kami nina mom and dad breakfast kanina.
I shyly nodded because if I speak another word, I'm sure I'm gonna stutter.
"O, Iho, napadaan ka" pag bati sa kaniya ni Dad ng makita niya ito pagkapasok namin sa dining room
"Good to see you Giannis" sambit naman ni mom tsaka lumapit kay Giannis para ibeso ito.
"Good morning po tito, tita" bati naman nito.
"Come join us. " mom said and called a maid to get Giannis utensils.
"You're not gonna tell anything " bulong ko rito sa gitna ng pakikipagkamustahan nito kay mom at dad
"Not gonna tell what?" Agad akong napalingon kay dad ng seryoso itong napatingin sa akin.
Damn!
"N-nothing dad. D-diba Giannis? " pinanlakihan ko ito ng mata ng malipat sa akniya ang tingin ng mga magulang ko.
Hindi nito pinansin ang mga tingin na binigay ko sa kaniya at agad niyang inalis ang tingin niya sa akin para tignan ng diretso sa mata ang mga magulang ko.
"Uhm.. Sir, Ma'am, I-I would like to ask permission if I-I can court your daughter " pilit nitong pinapanatili ang ngiti sa kaniyang labi kahit na tila gulat sina mom at dad sa bigla niyang sinabi.
