A Salient Visit

He softly leaned his chin unto my shoulders. He gracefully danced with me.

The song ended, we stayed in the same position.

He looked at me with pure innocence and luminescence. Marahan niyang inangat ang aking baba.

"Do you want to go inside?" He asked me.

Tumango ako, I don't know if I can speak now. I'm embarrassed!

"Baka lamukin ka..." Marahan niyang nilagay ang suit ng coat niya sa'kin.

I nodded. Out of words.

Hinawakan niya ng marahan ang gilid ng kamay ko, handa ng tahakin ang Ballroom. Nang nagsalita siya muli. "Kaya mo bang maglakad?"

I softly nodded, still out of words.

He scooped me and now he's carrying me.

I felt that I was safe in his arms then and there.

"U-uhm..." I nervously wrapped my arms around his neck.

Nang makalapit na kami sa sasakyan niya ay pinaupo niya ako. "Upo ka muna dito... May kukunin lang ako," At pumunta sa back seat.

He opened a shoe box.

"Baka masaktan ka... Ang taas-taas pa man din ng takong mo..." at dahang dahang tinanggal ang high heels ko. He replaced them with white-gleaming high heels. It was shorter than my original one, but better. I can walk freely in this one.

"T-Thank- Salamat..." I smiled to cover up my nervousness.

"Hmmm..." he chuckled.

"Welcome." He offered his hand, I hesitantly accepted it.

Tinahak na naming ang daanan papunta sa Ballroom. I removed my hand on his.

"I'll go now... I saw Louisse." I said even though I did not see any remark of Louisse.

He flashed his ghost smile. "Alright."

I almost ran away from him. "Sapphire!" tawag sa'kin ni Jessa. Napahinto ako sa pagtakbo.

"Are you okay? Why are you parang hinihingal?" Jessa offered his water.

Jessa looked like a Goddess. Jessa's wearing a Baby Pink and Baby Blue gown. It's full of butterflies and rhinestones that made her shine.
