Chapter 3 – The Meet & Greet
Naghanda na ako ng almusal . Kumain , naligo ,nagbihis , at nagmadaling pumunta sa kotse ko. Nag iwan ako ng pagkain sa lamesa dahil hindi pa nagigising si Cheska. 10’ o clock ng walang pasok , gigisig sya ? That’s I-M-P-O-S-S-I-B-L-E! So pumunta na nga ako sa Manila Hotel. Excited na excited na talaga ako!! Di ko na mapigilan ang sarili ko… kaso , the sad thing is…… hindi ako pwedeng magfangirling sa harap nila , mahiya naman ako diba ?
********************************************************
About halfway na ako dun sa Hotel tapos biglang tumunog yung phone ko,..
‘Ive tried playing it cool , but when I’m looking a you…’
Pinakialaman ba naman ang ringtone ko ? Anyway highway, gusto ko naman yung ringtone ^^.. Sinagot ko na yung cellphone ko ng hindi tinitingnan kung sino ang tumatawag.
“ HOOOOOOOOOY!” sigaw nung kabilang linya.TUNGUNA ni cheska, kailangan sumigaw ?
“ Ano yan ? Magsasayang ka nang load para sigawan lang ako ?” sigaw ko pabalik.
“Ano ka ? UTUT. Kahit kailan di kita pagsasayangan ng load. Nga pala, naiwan mo scrapbook mo.” Sabi niya.
TAE.TAE. TAE .TAE How the hell did I forgot about that ?
“Nandyan pa ba yung pinagsasayangan ko ng load ? Oh, ano na ?”
“ah, eh…. Pupunta ako dyan ah , hintayin mo ako sa labas , at ibigay mo sakin.” Sabi ko nang nag mamadali. In-end call ko na siya at baka bugbugin niya ako dahil napakamahal ng mababayad niya sa line niya =____=
-.-.-.---…--.--.-
TIME: 10:25 am
Nakabalik na rin ako sa tapat nang dorm at kinuha ko na rin yung scrapbook, thank goodness at medyo malapit ang dorm ko dun. Buti na nga lang din eh, hindi traffic ngayon J)

Eto naaaaa ! Nasa harap ulit ako ng hotel ! Alam mo yung exciting feeling sa katawan ? Grabe yung sakin ! Nag tatakbo na ako agad sa lobby tapos may nakita ako ng bellboy.
“Good afternoon ma’am,how may I help you ?” bati nung bellboy.
“Nandito ako parasa meet and greet ng One Direction.” Sabi ko.
“Dun po ma’am” sabi niya habang may tinuturo na room. Pumunta ako kaagad habang pinipigilan ko yung sarili ko yung sarili ko sa pagtalon ng pagtalon sa sobrang tuwa , pero dapat ako mauna sa room. Ayokong pinaghihintay yung mga crush ko / asawa ko. :)
SHET. Yun lang nasabi ko sa sarili ko pagkabukas ko ng pinto. Ang aga naman nila !! Anong oras naba ? Tiningnan ko yung relo ko, ’11:10’ ang nakita ko.
Anu bayan.... Punctuality pa naman ang pinaka importante sa kin. Specially pag future ko na ang nakataya dito ! Yeah, you know naman magiging asawa ko sila, at ngayon na ang first step! Kaya nga dapat,ako na ang magbigay ng initiative sa pangliligaw , right ? XD O sige na, tigil na sa kalokohan kong bulok..
So yun... Nandun na sila ehh. Bakit ko pa kasi nakalimutan yung sCRAPbook na yun?!
“Hi...” yun lang ang nakatakas sa lalamunan ko.
“Hello”.” How, are you?” sabay nilang sabi.
Nakita ko agad yung mata ni Niall. Lord, handa na akong mamatay! Buo na ang buhay ko! Ang cute kasi nung mata niya. At siya rin naman diba ? Ang humindi, eh baka bukas na sa kulungan na ako for murder.
“What’s your name ?” Sabi ni Liam; ang nag-iisang tao na sumira ng awkward silence at eye contact namin ng future kong asawa. Ang KJ mo LIAAAAM!
“I’m Alianna Marie Cruz. Call me Ali.” Sabi ko ng medyo shy tone.
“Pa- shy tone shy tone ka pa ! Walang hiya ka naman sa totoong buhay eh! “ –AUTHOR
“HAHAHAHA. Moment ko to eh, pwede ba, sa susunod ka nalang umepal ?” –Ali
“Sure!” –Author
-back to sto.-
“Hi Ali ! You already know our names right ?” Tanong ni Zayn.
“Yeahp!” sabi ko “Including Kevin :) “sabi ko ulit habang tinuturo yung kalapati. Buti na lang tumawa sila dun. I feel like the most luckiest girl! Am I already dead? This feels like the 7th Heaven ! Ang kulit nila tumawa! Sobra ! So beautiful.
“Why not tell something about yourself, I know that you know us already.”. “ Blame my psychic powers, babe.” Sabi ni Harry. Tumango lang ako.
“Sure. I’m a 100% pinay and I’m proud to be one. I like carrots, it’s my favourite vegetable, even before I met you. My family used to accuse me of being a cursed rabbit. I always empty our carrot stock. I also play the guitar, I used to play guitar on my church when I was young.” Sabi ko. Yun muna yung mga sinabi ko para hindi naman ako nag mumukhang tanga habang nag sasalita. Si Louis kung matingin WAGAS. Dahil ba gusto ko ang carrots? Napanood ko na kasi yung mga video diaries nila.. Tapos dun ko nalaman na he likes girls who eat carrots, ang cool nga eh, mahilig rin pala siya sa carrots tulad ko. Tsaka nga diba, naka tadhana na ako kay Niall ?
“You can play the guitar ?!” sabi ni Niall in shock , na nag dahilan para maalis ako sa cloud nine.
“Yeahp.” Sabi ko. “Is somethin’ wrong with that ?” tanong ko.
“Nothing. I just find it awesome.” Sabi niya, kaya ako napangiti.
“Ohhh. Is that so ?” tanong ko habang namumula?! Tunguna ka kilig ! Alam mo bang wrong timing ka ?
* * *
“Can we eat now?” sabi ni Niall. “ I’m soooo hungryyyyyyyyyyyyyy!” tapos binigyan siya ng ‘mahiya ka naman’ look ni Liam.
“ Yeah, I’m also getting hungry....” sabi ko in favour of Niall. Di Dapat siya mapahiya. “We’ve been talking for one hour and that makes me hungry.” Mukhang nag-agree naman sila sa sinabi ko. Naubos na ata ang laway ko sa kadadaldal eh.Tumayo na kami sa upuan at ako naman tong nagpapaka fan girl na tumatalon talon sa isip at sinasabing “ Me , having lunch with One Direction ! This is gonna be the best day eva!”
Niall’s POV
The girl is flacking gorgeous. The last time I saw her is 6 months ago, and I’m dying to see her again. I don’t really believe in ‘love at first sight’... But it’s her who made it really true. During the concert, I often look at her to keep me inspired. ^_^
I’m so happy when she accepted me for who I am. I mean, she saved me from Liam who’s gonna turn into a dragon anytime. Phew! I must thank her for that.
We walked through the dining area and took our seats in the circular table. They talked a little but I don’t care , I’ll mind my own business now, and concentrate with my love. (food)
Again, DD (daddy directioner) gets mad at me & shot me a death glare. He already said to me that I must act like my age in public places specially in other countries. I didn’t mind him and rolled my eyes at him. He always looks at me & my cool attitude. But he doesn’t look at Lou , who’s holding Kevin since the start of the meet and greet! Take note... he’s been talking to it like an 8 year old girl talking to a Barbie doll...
* *
We finished eating & 2 hours flew fast. It’s time to say goodbye to Ali, but I still don’t want. I want an additional 3 hours !! I can’t do it though. Which makes me sad. But then, I think of it... I must stay in contact with her !! So here I am making my first move but then she cut me.
“I forgot!” said Ali when we got out. “I got this scrap book. I hope you will like it.” Then she handed me a brown scrapbook. And for that millisecond, I was able to hold her hand. But she let go of the scrapbook. But then I realized she was gone to the parking lot. I ran and reached her car before she started the engine. I immediately asked her without hesitation. “Hey Ali, I forgot to ask , do you have twitter ?” .”And ...” I feel myself getting weak. I’m not like this on my other fans. Did cupid shot me already? Is she my kryptonite?
“and....?” she said , pulling me out of my thoughts.
“And....um... what’s your number?” YES! I finally said it !
“Wait for a while.” She said, then she pulled out pen and paper out of her bag. She scribbled for a while she wrote her number and username on twitter.
“Thanks” I said, and I left. I wish I could hug her but, I can’t, because we only met. (but let’s pretend it’s love XDD). And maybe, she likes Harry, like every single new fan does.
Ali’s POV
So , here I am alone in my home. Browsing over my twitter at nag-hihintay na, mag –text si Niall dahil di ko nakuha number niya -.- Ayun, tingin tingin ng mga post nila tapos bigla kong nakita , nadagdagan ang followers ko. Tiningnan ko yung mabait na taong yun, NiallOfficial followed you. Tapos may biglang ng text sakin, nagulat ako at na-click ko bigla yung home button. Aww ! Nakakatamad naman kasi buksan pa ulit yung twitter ko eh ! Tiningnan ko na lang yung nag text at nakita ang words na : Hey ali ! it’s me Niall. X Srsly?! Tinext ba ako ng isang international pop superstar na mega super cute ? OMFG. Take my souuuul ! I’m ready to die ! Pero wag muna ! di ko pa napapakasalan si Niall ! Wait lang muna! Sa susunod na lang Nag reply ako : Heyy! Are you bored or somethin’ ? Would you mind if we text? Hiniga ko muna yung ulo ko sa paborito kong unan at nag fan-girl ng sobra. Biglang sumigaw yung nasa kabilang kwarto “ HOY ! MANAHIMIK KA NGA ALI!” hehehehhe sorry naman ! Kung ikaw ba i – text ng isang super sikat na lalake ? ♫So ! Get out get out get out of my head ♫ WAAAAH ! NAG –REPLY SIYA! \
N :Sure , I’m a little bored, I’m hiding this , maybe Liam might see me and turn into a creepy dragon. X
