HIS FAVORITE DESTINATION (VALDEZ SERIES #1)

C1

I'm a very quiet girl since my grade school baby days, I like being alone cause it's more peaceful, medyo nakakasad lang minsan cause wala akong makausap and my loneliness shows up, well not until grade 1, I met my bestest friend, Dominic, he's very loud and makulit but I dont mind kasi nasanay na ako sa kanya, and his loudness and kakulitan makes me smile.

GRADE 9  I  CELINE AMARIANO & DOMINIC VALDEZ

"Cali!", masiglang sabi ni Dominic, yinakap niya ako and I hugged him back looking confused. "H-Huh?", thats the only thing I said looking confused by his action.

"Sabi ni Tita, nagkasakit ka raw, bakit di mo naman sinabi? edi sana binisita kita at nasamaham pa kita", Dominic said while pouting. 

I chuckled elegantly, "Oh gosh Dominic! it's fine sinisipon at inuubo lang naman ako nun, and ayoko rin bumisita ka  baka kasi mahawa pa kita, tsaka just forget it okay na din naman ako. You're so OA talaga ha!".

He playfully rolled his eyes, "Syempre, concern ako, tara na nga libre nalang kita ng ice cream" aya niya kaya naman pumunta kami sa canteen.

"Dominic, I want this one!" masayang sabi ko at inabot sakanya  ang chocolate ice cream na naka cup para mabayaran niya. Tumango siya at kumuha rin siya ng popsicle para sa kanya, binayaran niya yun then pumunta kami sa gym ng school.

"Thank you", sabi ko at nginitian siya. 

"You're welcome, crush", sabi niya at ngumisi, I rolled my eyes and just ate the ice cream

"Oo nga pala, binigay na ni mommy yung birthday invitation ko kay Tita Tiffany", he said.

 I nodded "Yeah, she did, sinabi na sa akin ni mommy, so pool party pala ang gagawin mo".

"Yes! para makapag-relax naman", masayang sabi niya. "Umm marami bang tao?" nahihiyang tanong ko.

He chuckled softly, "Malamang, nandun buong family ko eh tsaka family friends at yung ibang friends ko". Tumango lang ako, inakbayan niya ako at ngumiti "Don't worry, my Cali, nandum naman ako and I won't ignore you for anyone" he smiled and I smiled too even though medyo ang corny niya for me. 

"Of course nandun ka, birthday mo yun eh!" I chuckled making him chuckle too.

 "Hay nako naman" he pinched my soft cheeks gently.

"Celine!", someone shouted my name gently, lumingon ako at nakita ko si Kuya Ethan, my eldest brother.

 Ngumiti ako and I wave my hand at him, "Hi kuya!", masayang sabi ko, lumapit siya sa amin and nag high five pa sila ni Dominic. 

"Saan si Eashan? di pa sila lumalabas? Hay nako ang tagal talaga ng isang yun", Kuya Ethan said.

"Maybe he's flirting again?", I chuckled, 

"Well I hope not" Kuya Ethan rolled his eyes.

"Of course I'm not!", Kuya Eashan showed up and inakbayan niya si Dominic, Dominic just chuckled. "Celine ha, binabackstab mo na ako", biro ni Kuya Eashan. 

I pouted and hugged him "No, I'm just kidding lang eh", I said and Kuya Ethan and Kuya Eashan only chuckled, "It's okay, princess".

"By the way, Fhoenixe saang resort gaganapin yung birthday mo? sabi ni Tita Joanna out of town daw diba?", sabi ni Kuya Ethan.

 "Umm yun po dapat yung plano kaso nga lang po ayaw po ni Cali magtravel at pagod na po siya kakatravel, so sa resort nalang po ni Daddy." Johann explained na medyo namumula pa.

Oh my gosh, I can't believe he considered me, nasabi ko kasi sakanya dati na pagod na ako magtravel, it's nice naman pero kapag madalas nakakasawa na. Fhoenixe Dominic smiled sweetly at me, hay nako Valdez... I smiled back at him.
