We Are Family

***Episode 2: Manila Diamond Hotel

At around 8:30 we left home. I didn’t know where we will be going as Dady was determined to keep it a surprise. When we began heading Buendia, I just know that we are going somewhere Roxas Boulevard area. I was really giddy with excitement, as I don’t have a clue on where he will take me. When we finally got there, I had to smile from ear to ear for the place was really romantic. I loved the view of the cascading water on the man made falls. The food was sumptuous and the background music completed the wonderful ambience. However, I wasn’t able to eat well because of migraine. Yes, my head was throbbing with excruciating pain. I tried my best not to let Dady know, as this will spoil our date.

After eating, I gave him my gift.His face shone with surprise. A week before I gave his sister (hi Padme) the box of the watch I will give him. Yes, just the box and nothing inside but a simple Anniversary greeting. I asked her to put it in his kuya’s pillow so that he will be able to see it when he wakes up Saturday afternoon. Thanks to her, the plan was executed successfully. That is the reason why he is so keen on opening the gift. Along with the watch, I also put in the scrapbook that I was working on for the past year and the greeting card. I prayed that he would like the gift but the expression on his face tells it all. To see those tears of joy roll down his cheeks was truly an amazing feeling. I felt that he truly values the gift and I felt well appreciated.

He wanted to have some coffee after but I really don’t feel well. Besides the splitting headache, I wanted to throw up. I was forced to tell him to set it to another day and we headed home. At the car, I didn’t have the strength to restrain myself. It was a good thing that he has a throw up bag with him. Yes…. I puked. I cried afterwards because after all he did for our date, this is what he got. Dady, assured me that it was okay and he told me that I should have told him earlier that I was sick.To be continued on Episode 3: At Home
