RIINH! RIINNG!
"Hello?"
"Hi!"
"Matt?"
"Yes."
"Napatawag ka?"
"Nasan ka?"
"Nasa office pa."
" I'm in Manila. Daanan kita?"
" Huh? Pauwi na ako eh."
" Let's have dinner? Or kumain ka na ba?"
" Hindi pa. Sa bahay sana eh."
" Let's have dinner?"
" Ok...nasan ka ba?"
" Nasa labas ng opisina mo."
"Huh? Anong ginagawa mo diyan? Bakit di ka pumasok?"
"Dito na lang ako. Labas ka na lang dito. "
"Sino kasama mo?"
"Silang tatlo, sino pa?"
And the door opened. She was smiling in her suit, she was carrying a lot of stuff and a bouquet of roses. Siyempre before my three bodyguards would get her stuff, nauna na ang mga bantay niya.
"Sino nagbigay ng flowers?"
"Si Representative ...."
"Sa sasakyan mo yan. Huwag sa sasakyan ko. Allergic ako sa pollen eh"
"Oo na."
"Sir, sasama ba kami sa inyo?"
Hmmmm alam na alam nila ah.

"Sir?"
"Sabi ko taxi kayo tapos uwi na kayo."
"Sir, hindi po kayo pwedeng iwan sabi ng Papa niyo"
"Hindi kayo kasya sa sasakyan ni COngresswoman eh."
"Kasya sila. ikaw naman. SUnod na lang sila sa atin. DUn sila sa sasakyan ko. Ikaw ba magdadrive?"
"PWede ding ikaw, Hahahaha"
"Baliw ka talaga. Hmp!"
So we went to Solaire to eat.
"Good evening Congresswoman, Sir."
"Reservations for Cruz please."
"You reserved for 1 people, right Sir?"
"Yes. I resserved for two tables.:
"Yes, Sir."
'"Two tables? Bakit ang daming tao? Eight lang tayo ah."
"Akala ko kasi sangkaterba ang alagad mo eh."
"Tell them na eight lang tayo. Sige na, tell them. Ang tigas ng ulo mo ah."
"Alam na nila yan. When they will get our orders. Don't worry."
"Palibhasa mayaman ka eh."
" Hindi naman. Tama lang."
"So bakit pala tayo nag dedate ngayon?"
" Na miss kita."
" Be serious."
" I am serious. Don't you miss me?"
" You can tell me the truth, they're a table away and they can't hear you."
" I would like to offer you a deal."
" Ano yun? Huwag monkey business huh! "
" May pagka monkey business to. "
" Hay naku!!! "
" Let's be serious. "
" Ikaw namn ang hindi seryoso. "
" Okay... "
I looked at her straight in the eye. I have to do this to protect you and protect me too. We have to do this.
"Will you marry me?"
