"Sorry, Nathan. Ipapakilala naman kita, but... not today."
I knew I hurt him with what I just said to my dad. His eyes were extra dark as it was obviously in a bad mood. Well, who wouldn't be. Kaso kasi kinakabahan pa ako sa magiging reaksyon ng magulang ko kapag nakilala nila si Nathan bilang boyfriend ko. They had a high standards, specially for me. I was afraid they wouldn't like Nathan, but I wish they would, maybe in the future, they would.
Tahimik ang buong byahe namin. Nathan didn't bother to talk anymore. Nakatingin lang siya sa bintana ng kotse, habang nakatingin ako diretso sa kawalan, iniisip kung gaano ka-offensive ang sinabi ko kay daddy sa harapan niya. Bullshit me. Nilaro ko lang ang daliri ko hanggang sa nakarating na kami sa parking lot ng school.
