Please Love Me

Chapter 29

I didn’t sleep much because of what happened a while ago. We just kissed.. My cheeks feel so warm.

Tricia don’t dream! I know he was asleep, but I can’t help, but to feel giddy. I feel so high…

My smile is so big when I went downstairsMalaki ang ngiti ko habang pababa ako ng hagdan.

Bahagyang bumagal ang lakad ko ng makita ko si Enzo at mommy na masayang nag uusap. Bigla

akong kinabahan. Paano kung alam niya ang nangyari? No! He's so drunk kaya malabo na maalala

niya. Huminga ako ng malalim. Calm down Tricia! act normal. Relax..

“Tricia you’re awake!” Mom greeted me.

As i walk towards the kitchen, I noticed Enzo staring at me.

“Morning princess…” he greeted happily. I don’t know whether to just be quiet or to answer him.

‘Morning Enzo…” I awkwardly said.

"Tricia..your dad is coming soon.." mommy said.

My forehead creased. Why would he come back soon? I thought his flight is on September...

"why so soon my? I thought he’ll go home on September?"

"Silly! You forgot!It's your 18th birthday this coming April! You think your dad would let it pass?”

I almost forgot that’s it’s my debut soon. I suddenly feel excited.

"And he's throwing you a big party..." I glanced at mom.

“No need mom. It’s just a waste of money.” It’s true though… Simple dinner is enough.

"No!You're our only daughter..you deserve it." Mommy explained.

I just sighed. What else can I do? I’ll just give it to them since they want it.

“And Enzo will be your escort.”

I touched my tongue when I suddenly bit it. Enzo? I glanced at him, and I saw him smiling widely. I

can’t believe this! Did he plan for this to happen? They didn’t even ask me who I want my escort to be. I

did not look at him because I remembered what happened last night.

"I'm going to be your prince.." He winked at me. I secretly smiled because of that. I think I’m going

crazy because of the butterflies in my stomach.

Enzo and I were left in the house because mom went to the Flavours. I stood up and went to a chair

near the gazebo. I cant help but to laugh because he’s so playful today!

"Aren’t you excited.." HE said while poking my stomach.

"Don't talk to me Enzo!I'm still mad at you.." He pouted because of that. Gosh! This jerk is just so

handsome. I’m falling for him even more!

"I thought we’re okay?"

"Says who..." natatawang sabi ko.

He’s now looking at me seriously...

"Tss..I thought.." He whispered. I can hear it though...haha!

"What did you say?" I said hostily.

I saw him rubbed his face with his hands. He also messed with his hair. And his nose...it’s sharp. His

lips...they’re so plump and red. Perfect jaw line and firm body. What am I saying? Why am I thinking

wistful things?

"What do I have to do for you to forgive me? Tell me...:” He seems irritated? What? Now he has the

nerves to be irritated?

"First..

You'll be my escort on my birthday.."

The jerk looks like he won a lottery!

"I really am." He said boastfully. "And I should be the one"

"Second.."

"That’s too many.."

"Fine! I’m still mad!"

"I’m just kidding! I’ll do everything!"

"Stop calling me Pat!call me 'Tricia'.."

"What?" He shouted. I looked at him questioningly so he just raised his hands to surrender.

"Ok I'll try.."

"Third.." I’m enjoying this...

"Whaaaat?”

"No Monica on my birthday.." I know he’s shocked and confused as hell right now.

"You guys are friends, right? Aren't you going to invite her?"

"We're classmates Enzo but we're not friends.."

He looks like he wants to say something, but he’s contemplating whether to say it or not.

"And last..

don't ask me why..."

“Hmm?”

"Promise me Enzo..No Monica on my day..Just this! Just for my birthday.."

He breathed deeply although I know he has a lot of questions in his mind. Nonetheless, he still smiled

at me.

"Ok Tricia..I promise.."
