She's Rich, He's Richer

Chapter 2.4

Nararamdaman ko ng unti-unting nagshushut down ang utak ko at bumibigat ang talukap ng aking mga mata. 

---

"Okay class dismissed." 

Grabe naman halos hindi manlang nagdiscuss si ma'am Karumaldumal. Humikab ako, grabe inaantok pa rin ako. Inayos ko yung mga gamit ko at nilagay sa bag. 

Nakita kong ngumiti si Mico sa akin kaya kinusot ko ang mga mata ko. Guni guni ko lang yun. Pagtingin ko ulit nakita kong nakatingin pa rin siya sa akin but he's not smiling anymore. 

Suddenly nakita kong lumalakad na siya palapit sa akin.

"Lunch?"

Seriously? Niyayaya niya ako maglunch? For real? 

"S-sure." 

Sumunod naman ako sa kanya at lumabas na kami ng room. 

"Hop in." 

"Lalabas tayong school?"

"Sasakay ba ako sa kotse kung sa canteen lang tayo kakain? Think sometimes."

Ang sarap gasgasan ng black Mclaren niya kaso milyon pala ang halaga nito, it was even the most expensive car ayun sa huling check ko. Fine then, he's richer than I am. 

Sumakay na din ako sa kotse niya. It was my first time. Kinikilig ako at packing tape ang bango ng sasakyan niya. Amoy bago, hindi nakakahilo. Nakaamoy na din ako ng pabango, it smells good, so manly that it can catch every females attention. 

"Stop sniffing me." 

"S-sorry."

Nakakahiya knowing na alam niyang may gusto ako sa kanya. 

Minutes later we stopped to an unfamilliar seafood resto. It looks so classy. 

He opened the car's door and I went out. He's so gentleman and it's turning me on.

Wow nag-iimprove ang pananalita ko hehe kahit sa isip lang. 

When we reached the restaurant's entrance he opened the door for me. Grabe kilig lang feeling ko may date kami, hihi. Lunch date ito, tama. Tama yan Kane, assumera ka talaga. 

Nagulat ako kasi pagpasok namin there's a red carpet, okay fine hindi naman kagulat gulat na may red carpet sa isang mamahaling kainan pero rose petals can be seen everywhere. Rose petals are even falling from the ceiling. 

Sweet music is playing. 

I looked everywhere, there's no one other than us. 

I looked at him and he was smiling. Amazement is still written all over my beautiful face. 

"D-did you plann  this?" 

"Yes. All the efforts just for you."

Aaminin ko kinikilig talaga ako. We sat down to the table nearest us. It was arranged perfectly that you'll fall in love to the table rather than someone who's sitting next to you. Pero syempre joke lang yun, mas magandang view pa din si Mico kesa sa lamesa.

May lumapit na waiter at nilagyan ng wine ang glass wine. 

"Bakit ganito ka engrande?"

"Bakit ayaw mo?"

"Syempre gusto. Pero para sa ordinaryong araw?"

"It is not an ordinary day. It is the day that I, Mico Ensomo will confess my love for you Kane Michelle Martinez Sy. Yes, I like you from the very first day we've met each other. Yes, It is what you think because it is love at first sight. I didn't know that I'm capable of loving someone so carefree and careless. But yes again, I'm liking you for four years now. Now that I know that you like me too. I think it is the time to take our relationship to the next level. And I hope you'll say 'yes' when I ask you this question." 

I was so speechless. Tumayo siya at may inabot sa kanya ang waiter na square na lalagyanan at hindi ako shunga para hindi malaman kung anong meron doon. 

The next thing I knew ay nakaluhod na siya. 

"Kane Michelle Martinez-Sy will you be my-----"

"Kane wake up! Tanghali na! Kanina ka pa ginigising nila manang ang himbing daw ng tulog mo at parang kinikilig ka pa. Ano ba Kane, it's eight in the morning. Ang klase mo ay seven. My gahd Kane, fix yourself." 

Mommy naman wrong timing sa paggising. Yun na yun eh. Yun na yun.

Pero panaginip lang pala ang lahat? Packing tape, umasa akong totoo. Kinikilig na ako at handang um-oo kahit hindi niya pa tapos ang sasabihin niya, pero sh*t ang sakit palang magising sa katotohanan.
