I'm Gonna Reach You, My Love (Romantic Series #1)

Prologue

00

"C'mon! Let's go! You're gonna miss the most important moment of your life!" I'm excited, ribbon cutting kasi ni Arquin ngayon, nagtayo nanaman siya ng panibagong Cafe niya, nakaka-excite dahil lahat ng favorites ko ang nasa menu niya, cupcakes, cakes, cookies, brownies and many more!

"Careful, you're gonna fall" nakangiti siyang nakasunod sa akin habang hila-hila ko ang kamay niya. "We're almost there so calm down" dagdag niya pa.

"How can I? I'm sure everyone is waiting, their favorite pastry chef is gonna open another cafe that is going to be successful, AGAIN!" I'm very energetic. "Besides I can't wait to taste all of your new recipes" I giggled.

He shakes his head. "I get it, I get it" he tightened his grasp in my hand and pulled me closer. "Now, let's get going and make my Misis her favorite desserts."

Natawa ako sa ka corny-han niya, "my Misis".

In just a couple of minutes we arrived, and the people went wild, sigawan agad ang bumungad samin ng makita nila si Arquin. Even photographers sinalubong siya, ang pag click ng camera din ang halos maririnig mo sa gitna ng mga sigawan since famous talaga siya, nababalita all across the world ang buhay ni Arquin, so it's not really a surprise.

I was smiling while we past through them, then biglang nawala ang ngiti ko ng may mahagip akong pamilyar na mukha at napalingon ako.

"Is there something wrong?" Tanong ni Arquin at napatingin naman ako sakanya at umiling.

"Nothing, I just thought I saw someone I knew" ngumiti ako para hindi siya mag-alala.

"Well then, let's go cutting, hmm?" inabot niya sa akin ang gunting at ngumiti din.

"You should cut it, not me" I pushed his hand closer to him where he was holding the scissors.

"I prefer doing it with you" inilagay niya sa kamay ko ang gunting at ipinatong niya ang mga kamay niya sa kamay ko. "I want to do things together, so do not exclude yourself, I will appreciate it" he smiled sweetly, dahan-dahan niyang inilapit sa ribbon ang gunting at tuluyang pinutol yun, naririnig ko ang sigawan pero humina ito ng humina.

Nakatingin lang ako kay Arquin, how could a man can ever be this sweet and gentleman? I thought none exist other than my father. I swear, I love him that even cupid, the love of god himself couldn't compare.

He noticed I was just staring at him kaya naman ngumiti siya at hinalikan ang mga kamay ko. "You're falling for me again" he chuckles.

"I will fall for you, over and over again if I have to, Aqui" he didn't expect my reply so he was caught off guard and that just makes me laugh.

'What a cinnamon roll.'

"I'm glad to know that" he sighed out of relief and hug me. I hugged him back and we stayed there for a moment before they call him for an interview, he kissed my forehead before leaving for a bit so I enter the cafe and looked around.

"Ate Sky!" I heard my name, lumingon ako at nakita ko si Alliah, Arquin's little sister, she's with tita and tito.

"Alli, hello" I picked her up and hugged her" then nag bless ako kay tita and tito. " How are you po?" Tanong ko, dahil kakalabas lang last week ni tita sa hospital dahil sa surgery niya, not really serious pero kung hindi agad ginawa baka grumabe.

"I'm good, good as new" nakangiting sagot niya naman.

"Good to know po, but do not move around that much tita, it's not really good" I adviced.

"Ay naku, napakagaling ba naman ng doctor ko" she pinched my cheeks, ako kasi ang nag-opera sakanya, I'm a doctor, and Architect at the same time, but nawiwili ako sa pagiging doctor kaya parang naging sideline ko ang architecture.
