Happily Ever After is so Once Upon a Time II

Happy New Year!!!

December 31, 10:00 AM. I'm preparing to do the grocery with Derek. Yey! Kumpleto mamaya ang Magazine Team for the New Year Party. Hihi. Buti nalang at sa January 2 pa ang alis ni Colee and Yano for their honeymoon. Kinuha ko na ang bag ko at lumabas na ng condo ko. Derek is waiting for me outside. Baka mamaya kumatok na naman yun.

Yeah, still the same old Derek. Di makapaghintay. Like me ;-)

Pagkababa ko sa condo ay nakita ko kaagad ang sasakyan niya. Nasa loob siya ng sasakyan niya at pagkatapos ay bumaba.

"Good Morning Via!" - Derek

Sht! That gorgeous smile again. He's wearing his shades. Buwis buhay na, Anna!

"Good Morning Cordova." - Anna

Pagkalapit ko ay hinagis niya kaagad ang susi saken then smiled.

"You do the driving." - Derek

"Silly. Why?" - Anna

Seriously, I'm not in the mood for driving.

"I-test natin yang parking skills mo! Hahahaha." - Derek

"I'm done with that." - Anna

I rolled my eyes then pumasok na ako sa sasakyan. Walang mangyayari kapag mag-away pa kami ngayon. Okay, I know the trick. I'm gonna drive, siya tagabuhat ng bibilhin namin! Hahahaha ;-)

Pinaandar ko na ang sasakyan. I'm getting excited for tonight. Last year kasi sina Cornelio at Justine ang kasama ko, well.. almost through the years. Hahaha Kaya ngayon, change of setting. Haha Anyway, Justine already have his family. Errr.

"Thanks for the shoes, by the way." - Derek

Napatingin na ako sa kanya. Shet! Ba't pa niya pinaalala? Halos isang araw kong di matanggap yung iniregalo niya. It was a silver pumps, a Christian Louboutin shoes.

When I checked it online, it costs $721, which means around 36,000 yung cost nun. Gusto ko nga ibalik kaso nakakahiya naman din, it was a gift eh, and seriously

I don't have any plans na soutin yun. Grabe, 31,000 aapakan ko lang?! Ugh. Yung gift ko naman kasi sakanya, around 15,000 lang yun sa Italy.

Argh. I just smiled.

"And thanks for the shoes din." - Anna

"Di ko alam ibibigay sayo eh, I just knew you love shoes kaya binili ko na." - Derek

"And I just knew, you're not so much into shoes, kaya binili ko na din. Hahahaha." - Anna

"Yeah, I'd still prefer robots, or legos than shoes." - Derek

"So, di mo na-appreciate?" - Anna

He looked at me. Checking if I'm being sarcastic or what.

"Di naman. I mean, thank you for letting me explore shoes." - Derek

I smiled. Nagfocus na lamang ako sa daan.

"Ano bibilhin natin?" - Anna

"I don't know. Ano bang gusto nila Tysle?" - Derek

"Anything. Okay yan kahit ano." - Anna

"You do the grocery din sa condo mo?" - Derek

"Of course. Who would? Ako lang naman mag-isa." - Anna

"I mean, who's with you when you do the grocery?" - Derek

"Si Justine dati." - Anna

"..but everything he buys is for himself though ako pa rin nagbabayad. Iniistock niya lang sa condo. See, kung gaano ako kaswerte diyan." - Anna
