Chasing Chances

Chapter 27

I'm was smiling widely while looking at myself in the vanity mirror inside our room. Levis is outside waiting for me. Like what we have planned yesterday we are going on a date today, and that thing makes me giggle like a kid. I smiled at my reflection when I get satisfied with my look. I was wearing a simple white shirt and high-waist black pants. I just comb my hair and put on light makeup. I stood up and decided to go down since Levis is already waiting for me.

I smirk when I saw him sitting on the sofa while his one elbow was resting on his slightly parted knees, while his other hand was scrolling on his phone. He looks at me when he hears the sound of my shoes touching the stairs. I gulped. Nakangiti akong lumapit sa kanya at inabot ang nakalahad niyang kamay sakin.

He's handsome with his simple black V-neck shirt and black pants. Mas namangha pa ako sa kagwapuhan niya dahil sa suot na black cap. Dahil sa suot niya ay mas lumitaw ang kaputian niya na kulang na lang ay masilaw ako dahil sa kulay gatas na balat niya. Mas maputi pa yata siya sakin. I pouted because of my thought.

"Ready?" he asked. Lumapit ako sa kanya at marahang inayos ang cap niya, nakita ko kung paano sumilay ang ngiti sa mga labi niya. I smiled at him and nodded my head.

"Ready." he smiled back and took one of my hands before he guided me outside. We decided to go to an amusement park today. Naalala ko pa kung paano ko siya pinilit kahapon, I remember how many times I kissed him na ikinatawa naman nang loko para lang pumayag siya. I even pouted my lips and blinked my eyes while uttering 'pretty please'. Nang mag-enjoy na siya kakapanood sakin ay doon lamang siya pumayag, he even said that I don't have to beg to get what I want because he would give it to me directly, but heck, he let me.

Nakangiti si Levis habang pinapakinggan akong sabayan ang musika sa stereo niya. I'm enjoying singing the lyrics while he's enjoying watching and listening to me. I glare and stop singing when he coughs fakely after I failed on reaching the high notes of the music.

"Ang sama mo!" I voice out but he just shrugs his shoulder and smiles like a lunatic. He reached for my hand and he gently squeezes it, before he kiss it. I don't know how but I found myself resting my head on his chest while hugging him. He even use only one of his hands on holding the steering wheel, while his other hand was caressing my hair.

There were so many people at the amusement park when we got there. Understandable since it's the weekend today. Gusto kong umatras ng makapasok na kaming dalawa ni Levis. Gosh, halos lahat nang nakikita ko ay mga bata. I want to back out.

We are too old for this!

"What's wrong?" he asked when I hold his arm to stop him. Nasa entrance na kami kaharap ang staff doon na may ibinibigay na ticket. Ngumiti ako sa kanya ng alanganin bago inilibot ang paningin sa paligid.

"I think we're not suitable for this, Levis." Kumunot ang noo niya dahil sa sinabi ko. Pinasadahan niya rin nang tingin ang paligid nang tumingin ako sa kanya.

"I can't see rules and reminders telling that people our age are not allowed inside, baby. Besides what's wrong with that? You're with me and my woman wants to go inside. I can make this close when they won't allow us inside—" hindi niya na natapos ang sasabihin niya nang kurutin ko ang braso niya. Napa-aray naman siya dahil sa ginawa ko pero agad din namang tumawa.

"Hm, you're rich nga pala," I said mocking him.

"Just kidding muffin. Of course, I won't do that. Hindi pa naman ako aabot sa puntong 'yon." muling natawa si Levis nang irapan ko siya. Inabot pa kami nang ilang minuto bago tuluyang pumasok sa loob. Kung hindi lang nag-reklamo ang babaeng kasunod namin sa pila ay hindi na kami makakabalik ni Levis sa realidad.
