Letters Love, You

Chapter 14

Chapter 14: Mahal

Its almost 6:30 in the evening when Kyle fetched me. I was wearing an above the knee fitted sleeveless black dress paired with my 2 inches suede sandal. I freely let my wavy hair hung on my shoulder to give some kikay detail on my mature look outfit. I used my white, small sling bag to add color on my look.

It was exactly 7:00 when we arrived on an Italian restaurant. He pointed the table where his family is waiting. Inayos ko nang maayos ang buhok ko at medyo binaba ang dress na suot.

"Ma, Pa si Nat po." Agad kaming nilingon ng pamilya niya.

"Good evening po. H-happy birthday po ma'am." naglahad ng kamay ang mama ni Kyle kaya lumapit ako at nakipag beso sa kaniya. Ipinakilala naman ako ni Kyle sa mga kapatid niya.

"Thank you hija. Maupo na kayo Kyle" dumiretso naman kami ni Kyle sa dalawang bakanteng upuan katabi ng ate niya.

It was an intimate dinner with his family. Sa harap namin ay ang dalawag Kuya ni Kyle and I think they are twins kasama ang mga asawa nila. Sa katabi ko sa kanan ay ang ate Kelly niya na kasama din ang boyfriend niya samatalang nasa kaliwa ko naman si Kyle.

Napansin ko kung saan nakuha ni Kyle ang kulay niya. He has a dark complexion like his father.

Moreno to make it more specific.

"Mabuti naman Kyle at may nadala ka na din para ipakilala sa amin" tanong ng kuya niyang naka coat and tie na si Kuya Klint sabay tawanan nila ng kapatid niya. Lito akong napatingin kay Kyle.

"Fuck you Kuya" imbis na mainis ay tinawanan lang siya nga mga nakakatandang kapatid.

"You know what Nat, palagi silang ganiyan kapag nagkakasama. Kyle really hates having a twin brothers" sabi naman ng ate niya na sumali na sa usapan.

"Oh. I thought you want twins" tanong ko sa kaniya.

"I won't mind if they comes from you" bigla akong namula sa sinabi niya. Rinig na rinig ng mga magulang niya kaya kinurot ko ang binti niya.

"Oh! So you are already planning for your future huh" sabay ngisi ng mama niya.

"Ah hindi po. I have a twin sisters din po kasi and Kyle is really fond of them. Hindi ko po alam na ayaw niya pala sa kambal"

"Change of perspective huh"

"People change kuya"

"What's your family name hija" agad akong napa ayos ng upo sa tanong ng papa ni Kyle.

"Corpez po sir" napa tango na lang ang papa niya.

"You know what pa, she is our school's President and is running for latin honors this school year"

"So you are an achiever" sagot ng papa niya.

"Ahmm. Opo. My mama is an achiever also back when she is young kaya she is encouraging me as well to be like her po"

"Ang galing pumili ah" napalingon naman ako sa kuya niyang may mole sa ilalim ng bibig na si Kuya Klyde.

"So what are you taking in college hija?" Tanong ng mama niya.

"I'm planning to take med school po"

"Really? My alma matter is the best med school here. You should give it a try." So her ate is a med student. I should try it then.

"I'll consider it po"

"I'm so excited for you." nginitian ko nalang siya.

"What particular profession do you want hija?"
