Wendy's Pov
As we arrived at their mansion, I immediately went out of his car and waited for him. Agad niya namang tinanggap ang binake ni Mom na cinnamon rolls.
"Thank you for this Wendy," he said. Ngayon ay halos namumula na ang pisngi ko dahil sa malaking ngiti na ginawad ni Rad sa akin.
"Y-you're welcome,"
Agad namang sumulpot sa harapan namin si Manang, her eyes immediately went on me kaya bahagya akong ngumiti sa kanya.
"Kumain ka na ba hija? Maaga akong naghanda para sa inyo." aniya.
We are now entering the premises. Napakunot ang noo ko dahil hindi ko nakita kahit anino man lang nila ni Dayle. Am I early? Akala ko ba ay nauna na sila rito.
"Salamat po manang. Kumain na po ako kanina sa bahay," nahihiya kong tugon at parang hindi ko pa maiwasang maguilty dahil naghanda rin pala siya para sa amin.
"Nasaan sina Dayle?" I asked, looking at Rad habang hawak-hawak niya pa rin ang box ng cinnamon roll. Umangat ang tingin nito sa akin.
"Papunta na sila. Dinaanan pa nila si Ky kaya natagalan." aniya kaya tumango ako.
"I'll just put this in the kitchen, upo ka muna," he offered me, hindi naman ako pumalag at talagang hindi ko alam ang gagawin gayung ako pa lang ang nandito sa bahay nila.
He left me after that, nilibot ko na lang ang paningin ko at pinagmasdan ang mga litratong nakasabit. My lips parted a little when I saw the picture of him when he was on his younger years. Ngayon ko lang din ito nakita at hindi ko ito napansin nung una akong pumunta rito.
I smiled. He's so charming on his photo, naka hoodie ito at mukhang nasa ibang bansa pa ang kuha. He was looking on his left side, the reason why his perfect features were seen. Mula sa matangos niyang ilong at malaking ngisi sa labi, he looks so good and endearing! Parang gusto ko nalang na itakas ang larawan.
I immediately shook my head when my eyes went on the photo beside it, this time it was him with his parents. I blinked for a couple of times, he's like the carbon copy of his father, ang naiba lang ay ang ayos ng kanilang buhok at tangkad. Rad is more taller than his father, it looks like it was just taken a year ago. It was a formal photo of them and they look so expensive.
...Especially, his mother.
She looks like a model, mukhang ang bata niyang tignan at elegante. She's got a soft features too, I can see the resemblance between her and Rad. Ito ang nakikita ko sa kanya tuwing nagtatama ang paningin namin, it's kind of enticing at talagang nakakalusaw. I bit my lower lip at the sight of them.
"Wendy?"
I almost jumped when I heard someone from the back. Napalingon ako at agad na natigilan nang makita si Joshua na pumasok na may nakasabit na towel sa kanyang balikat. He is—sweating. May gamit din itong airponds pero tinanggal nang magtama ang paningin namin.
Oo nga pala, they are cousins! How can I forget that.
"Oh h-hi," Nauutal kong pagbati. Agad naman siyang ngumiti at humakbang pa ng ilang beses palapit sa pwesto ko.
"Right, I remember now. Kasama mo ba si Rad na pumunta rito?" He asked, slightly fixing his dump hair and wiping away his sweats while casually talking to me.
"Uh, yes. He picked me up," I sheepishly smiled at him before looking away again.
"Cool. Where is he then? He left you here alone?" I was a bit conscious, is he always like this? Nakita ko na may inabot pa siya sa gilid ko na mukhang susi ito ng sasakyan, his scent is killing me, ni hindi ito amoy pawis.
