Mamahalin Kita ng Malayo

CHAPTER 33

Rod: Si-Sige po tita. Umuwi po pala siya jan sa bahay niyo noh? I-I didn't know.

Maddison: Yah, kahapon lang and bukas daw siya uuwi.

Rod: Ah okay po.

Maddison: By the way, are you free around 5pm onwards? You can come over, dito ka na magdinner.

Rod: Ta-talaga po?

Maddison: Yah.

Rod: Sure tita. I'll be there at exactly 5pm po (then smile)

Maddison: Imee is walking towards us na, don't tell about the dinner ha? Surprise her nalang.

Rod: Sige po tita.

As Imee stop infront of us, I handed her phone. After a second, she excused herself para kausapin si Rod. Hay, talaga naman oh. After so many years, naghintay pa rin talaga yung binatang yun. He really kept his promise talaga. I'm so happy cuz there's a man who's willing to wait for my Lizzy no matter how long it takes. Hopefully maging sila na.

Ava and I were really bored rn so we've decided to watch some Netflix movie na muna besides matagal pa naman yun and it needs to be chilled before adding the frosting. I also told Ava na magpadeliver na ng lunch cuz we don't have enough time to cook. As the movie ends, sakto namang okay na yung cake so we stood up then get the frosting. While cutting the cake in a perfect size, Imee walk towards us.

Imee: Okay na yung sorbet ate?

Ava: Yah. Actually kumakain na nga yung pamangkin mo eh.

Imee: Oh okay.

Maddison: So what's the real score between you and Rod? (Referring to Imee)

Ava: Kayo na?

Imee didn't utter any words. She just laugh then help us decorate the cake.

Maddison: Anak, ano na? Kayo na ba? Sinagot mo na?

Ava: Wait, Anthony told me that he courted you before, is it true? (Referring to Imee)

Maddison: Yes! And that was 11 years ago na ba (thinking) Yah! 11 years ago na tapos bumalik ngayon para manligaw ulit diba?

Ava: My god! Really?

Maddison: Yes! So ano na nga Lizzy? Kayo na ba?

Imee: Hi-hindi pa mom.

Maddison: Bakit? Ano pa bang hinihintay mo? You have stable job naman na diba? Tsaka lampas kalendaryo ka na anak! Gusto mo bang tumandang dalaga ha?

Imee: Grabe ka naman sa lampas kalendaryo mommy, 31 palang po ako.

Ava: Correction, 31 and a half. Walang 31 and a half sa calendar Lizzy.

I was about to speak but our helper informed us na may delivery daw sa labas. So I ask Ava to pay for it muna cuz I can't go upstairs to get my card.

Imee: Unhealthy food again! (then rolled her eyes)

Maddison: Of course not! Your ate Ava was the one who ordered those food so ibig sabihin puro healthy yan.
