[FORD'S POV]

*bzzt*bzzt*
Constancia is calling.....

"anong kilangan mo?"
[we're going to the mall kami nina russ,niel at tristan. Sama ka?]

Wait.... mall??? Finally may nagyaya na saakin mag mall na hindi si Eliza!!

"sama ako. Hintayin niyo ako!"
[ok. Bye?]

Lumabas na ko ng condo at buti nalang wala si Eliza kasi may trabaho sya.

"Guyz!" Tawag ko.

"Fordykels!" Sabi ni Russell.

"Leggo na!" Sabi ni Niel.

[NIEL'S POV]

Papunta na kami sa mall pero napapansin ko na tahimik si Ford.

"Ford, anyare sayo?" Tanong ko.

"Ano um. Wala pa akong singsing sa proposal mamayang gabi." Sabi niya.

"ANO?!?!" Sabi naming lahat.

"Alam ko. Ngayon ko lang nasabi. Pero nagpa-reserve ako ng favorite restaurant ni Eli mamayang gabi and hindi pa ako nakapag mall na hindi kasama siya. Kaya umoo ako na sumama sainyo para makabili ng singsing." Sabi ni Ford.

[RUSSELL'S POV]

Am I really the legit last person to know the last of everything?!?!

"Ok. Fordykels, nasa mall na tayo. Pwede ka nang bumili." Niel patted his shoulder.

"Alam ko. Susulitin ko." He said.

Then we went to the same store Niel bought Kisses' engagement ring.

"Thank you po." Ford said then got the ring and paid.

"So, Ford, pwede ba kaming pumunta?" Tristan said.

"Sige. Pero hindi pwede kayong makita ni Eli." Ford said.

"How will Eliza not see us if we are actually there?" I asked.

"Edi, we will be their waiter." Joao suggested.

We all looked at each other as if we read each other's minds.

Then the next thing we knew was,

"Sir, please, kailangan talaga namin. We need this restaurant all to ourselves." Joao was begging the manager of the restaurant.

"Ano bang gagawin niyo?" He asked.

"A proposal!" All of us said.

"Ok! Stat! John! Cancel all the reservations tonight! And early shift kayong lahat!" He called a waiter.

"Salamat po talaga!!" Ford shook hands with the manager then we left.

"Mission: Find costumes for us lads!" I said then bursted in laughter.

We all went to the department store and found things to wear for later.

From: Fordykels❤️
See you later 😘

Nalililto na talaga ako kay Ford! Kanina sabi niya magayos, tapos ngayon 'See you later' daw.

Ano naman gagawin ko? Edi magaayos!

Mga siguro 15 minutes na ako natapos magayos then may kumatok ng pintuan.

"Hey." Sabi ni Ford.

"Hi." Sabi kong kinikilig.

"Let's go?" Inabot niya yung kamay niya saakin.

•••
"San tayo pupunta?" I ask.

"Favorite mo." He said.

Kainis ka naman Ford! I've been craving for my favorite na!!

Then pumunta kami sa favorite restaurant ko.

"Ford, bat walang tao?" Tanong ko.

"Pina-reserve ko siya para lang sa ating dalawa." He whispered.

Napatingin na ako sa kanya,

"Bakit?" I ask again.

"Bakit ayaw mo?" He asked.

I shook my head.

"Upo ka na." He said.

"Good evening. I am Russell and I will be your server tonight." Russell suddenly came and handed the menu.

"And I am Joao, the 'manager' on duty." Tapos si Joao?!

Then umalis sila.

"Ford, bat sila nandito?" I ask then biglang tumayo si Ford.

"They wanted to see this," then he kneeled one knee in front of me.

"Eli, the first time we met was my first day as an RM in ABS. Kaagad, nagka-crush na ako sayo. Hindi ko pala narealize na ikaw ang gusto kong makasama habang buhay," is he proposing?

"Maria Elizabeth Flores, will you marry me?" He asked.

I nodded and pulled him and hugged him.
