Ball…
Mommy is now fixing my hair and makeup because an hour or two from now, Zion will come to our house to fetch me. I’m wearing a light pink tube gown. It’s kinda awkward because I’m not used to this.
“Tricia! You’re so beautiful…” my mom is so happy. I don’t do this often that’s why she’s probably at awe.
OMG i couldn’t believe that I could look like this…
“Wow! Is this really me?” I swirled around in front of the mirror. I could actually look pretty, huh? Mom nodded with a big smile on her face.
I stood up when our housemaid knocked.
“Ma’am Pat’s date is already here’
“Okay. Tell him that Tricia’s coming down.”
As I go down, I could see Zion looking at me intently...uhm??
“Hi Zi…Do I look ugly?” I snapped my fingers on his face when he remains immovable.
“Sorry…” he looked toward another direction…”Nope. You’re so beautiful.” Oh my gosh! He’s blushing!
“Tita, we gotta go.”
“Take care, Zion, Tricia.”
**********
“Hey...why do you keep on looking? Do I have dirt on my face?”
“No Tricia.,,You just look different tonight..You look like a human.”
I knew it! There wouldn’t be a day that he would let me pass peacefully.
I was humming when I remembered Enzo. Is he there already? What would be his reaction when he sees me?
We are already in the venue, and I’m so nervous because there are a lot of seniors around.
