Dahil cguro sa puyat at jetlag nakatulog ako , nagising na lang ako sa mga dampi ng halik ni Mom, “Princess kain na muna tayo, rise na baby para makagalak na tayo at punta tayo sa boutique para makapag change wardrobe ka”.
“Ok Mom shower muna ako sandali then I’ll be with you sa dining table”.
My Mom has a boutique in one of the malls in the area at doon kami pumunta ni Mommy. Change wardrobe so dami kaming dala pauwi. before going home nagstop kami sa isang native restaurant along the way at kumain ng napaka delicious na biko with tsokolate, “ Mom this sweet is one of the many that i missed when i was in NY, thanks for bringing me here. Mom was smiling and look at me seriously.I can since that she is preparing to tell me something.
“Mom something wrong, do you have something to tell me?”
“ Baby you are asking about Kristoffe this morning, i hope you will not be sad of what I am going to tell you about him.” She seems to have a difficult time in telling and from that I braced myself for I know there is something that is not good about Kristoffe.
“Mom what is it, don’t worry i am not a child anymore i can handle things now”
“ My Baby i am sorry to tell you this, but Kristoffe is engaged to be married to his long time girlfriend Genevere Onculio.” the supermodel.
God even how I prepared myself i still feel the hurt, the pain but I did not show it to my mother. I just smiled and show nonchalance but deep inside I am bleeding. I know that it was just a childhood thing, infatuation you ma call it but to me it is quite real. I love him and no other man can replace him. Even when I am in NY, men drought is not a thing for me, many are always showing their interest, professing their feelings to me but no my heart belongs to a certain man. I know there are many women trying to get his attention and landing on his bed but I never thought that there comes a time that I will be so late. I
Am I really late or I still have time to change his mind. . .
When we got home I told my Mom that i will stay in my room for awhile, since hse sense something on my feelings she let me by myself but told me that we are attending a party tonight at Kristoffe’s parents mansion.
I said Ok Mom I’ll prepare, “what time is it, formal get up po ba?”
My Mom told its a dinner party to celebrate Kristoffe becoming the new CEO.
As i was lying down staring at the ceiling my tears running down my chick, hindi ko pa rin ma kontrol sarili ko sa nararamdaman kung sakit, kaya ko ba makita siya na meron ng mahal na totoo, kaya ko bang ngumiti at ipakita sa kanya na wala sa kin na ibang babae na ang appleof his eye, makita ang niyang pagtingin sa kanyang soon to be wife? Ano kaya gagawin ko,?
