THIS DAY IS AN EXCITING DAY… MAYBE I CAN FIND SOMEONE THAT IS SUITABLE FOR SALLIE TO BE HER DATE IN THE PARTY…
I CALLED SALLIE TO DO MY MAKE UP AND SHE IS SO HAPPY WHEN SHE HEAR IT. AS EXPECTED,SHE IMMEDIATELY COME. SHE SAID YESTERDAY THAT SHE WILL COME HERE AT 6:30 AND NOW ITS JUST 6:28 AND SHE'S ALREADY HERE..WELL, SHE IS THE MOST PUNCTUAL GIRL, IVE EVER HAD…
"HEY HEY HEY, BESHY BESH…IM HERE..OH! HI TITA!" SHE SAID WHEN SHE SAW HER WALKING TO HER…SHE HUGGED MOM AND KISS HER IN THE CHEEKS, THAT'S WHY MOM REALLY LIKE HER.

"OKAY.. DO YOUR BEST HONEY…AND I WILL GIVE WOU A BONUS" MOM SAID AND THEY BOTH STARTED LAUGHING…I LIKE TO SEE THEM SMILING EVEN THOUGH I HAVE THIS SOME KIND OF JEALOUSITY.BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER, I HAVE THEM TO BE IN MY SIDE AND THAT'S ALL WHAT I ASK FOR.
"LETS EAT FIRST, IM HUNGRY.." I SAID.

AFTER 3 MINUTES. I TOOK A SHOWER THEN GO UPSTAIRS TO DRESS UP..THERE, I SAW SALLIE PREPARING THE DRESS THAT SHE BOUGT FOR ME YESTERDAY, SHE LOOKS SO PROFESSIONAL.
"ARE YOU JUST GOING TO STAND THERE AND STARE ME ALL NIGHT?COME HERE…"SHE SMILE.
SHE HELPS ME TO PUT MY DRESS ON …AND I ALSO HELP PUT HER DRESS… THEN WE BOTH LOOK INTO THE MIRROR. WOW… I..I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY BUT THE DRESS SHE CHOSE FOR ME REALLY SUITS ME..EVEN THOUGH THE DRESS IS BACKLESS BUT I DIDN'T FEEL LIKE I WAS ASHAMED AT ALL. MY BACK IS PRETTY GOOD UNLIKE BEFORE. IT REALLY FORM INTO A BEAUTIFUL ONE.. AND WHEN I LOOK AT SALLIE'S DRESS. BOOOOM! WOW! SO DELICIOUS… I MEAN SO LOVELY.. WITH HER RED FIT DRESS AND OFF-SHOULDER… I FEEL THAT SOMEBODY WILL BE IN LOVE WITH HER TONIGHT. SHES SO BEAUTIFUL..
"SEE? I TOLD YOU, YOU WILL LOOK SO GORGEOUS TONIGHT, LETS PUT MAKE UP ON!" SHE SAID.
" OKAY, YOU FIRST…" I SAID..BUT SHE SAID THAT SHE WILL BE PUTTING THE MAKEUP FOR HERSELF… AND I BEG HER TO SEE HOW SHES DOING HER MAKE UP, SO SHE AGREE…
I LOOK AT HOW SHE DO HER MAKE UP. YEAH SHE'S SO GOOD AT IT..AND THEN 15 MINS AND SHE'S DONE.
" YOUR TURN!" SHE SAID.

"MOM, I DIDN'T TOLD SALLIE THAT I ALREADY MET UNCLE DUKE'S SON, STEFFEN , MOM PLEASE DON'T TELL HER, FOR NOW..I DON'T WANT TO GET HER INVOLVE WITH THIS THING. IF SHE WILL KNOW ABOUT OUR ENGAGEMENT , IM SURE THAT I WILL BE NOT THE ONLY ONE TO BE EXPELLED IN THE SCHOOL, AND CANNOT HAVE A GOOD WORK, WHEN THEY FOUND OUT.. "I SAID AND BEG MOM AND SHE AGREE.. THEN WE HEAR THE DOORBELL RINGS….IT WAS DAVID!
I CALLED UPSTAIRS AND SHE RUN DOWN SO HAPPILY, AND FIX HER DRESS TO LOOK BEAUTIFUL BEFORE OPENING THE DOOR…
" OH, I FORGET MY BAG UPSTAIRS!" SHE SAID WHILE PUTTING HER EARINGS ON…
" LEMME GET IT FOR YOU…" I SAID.. AND QUICKLY CLIMB UP AND PICK HER BAG. I LOOK MYSELF IN THE MIRROR A LITTLE BIT AND I FORGOT TO WEAR MY EARINGS TOO… I LOOK FOR IT AND THEN PUT IN ON, AND I ALSO PUT MY NECKLESS.. WHOAA.. PERFECT..
"BESHH, DID YOU FIND IT? ITS JUST IN THE CHAIR..COME ON.. DAVID IS WAITING!!" SALLIE CALLED ME..
" NO, ITS FINE!" I HEARD DAVIDS VOICE.
"COMING!!!!" I SAID. THEN PICK UP SALLIE'S BAG AND SLOWLY WALK DOWN IN STAIRS. I LOOK INTO THEM.. AND I SAW DAVIDS JAW DROP ON THE FLOOR.. AND SALLIE SMILE SO WIDELY WHILE MOM,…. SHE JUST KEEP STARING AT ME?
"WHAT? SOMETHING WRONG?" I SAID..
"NO..ITS JUST.. YOU REALLY INHERITED THE BEAUTY OF YOUR MOTHER, SO BEAUTIFUL" MOM SAID.
" HOW COME I FORGET TO PUT ACCESSORIES IN YOU… GOSH…I REALLY AN IDIOT..THAT'S WHY EVERY TIME I LOOK IN YOU…I FEEL SOME THING'S MISSING…OH BABE, YOUR SO PRETTY…MAYBE I SHOULDN'T GO TO THE PARTY…"SHE SAID WITH A SILLYY FACE..
"NO, YOU LOOK SO AMAZING… AND OF COURSE.. IF YOUR NOT GOING THEN WHY WOULD I HAVE TO GO?" I SAID..
" HAHA IM JUST KIDDING.. LETS GO---"WE STOP, WHEN WE SAW DAVID STARE AT ME WITH AN AMUSEMENT IN HIS EYES.
" I.. IM SORRY… I WAS JUST THINKING, HOW LUCKY I AM TO INVITE THIS BEAUTIFUL GIRLS IN MY PARTY. WOW I, I WAS SO STUNNED SEEING YOU XENA… AND SALLIE SO GORGEOUS.. " HE SAID. WHILE PUTTING HIS HANDS IN HIS CHEST.. SUCH A GENTLEMAN.. THEN COME CLOSE TO MOM..
"TITA, I PROMISE I'LL BRING YOUR DAUGHTER BACK HOME SAFELY…THANK YOU FOR LETTING HER COME TO MY PARTY" HE SAID. THEN GET MY MOM AND SHE KISS IT AT THE BACK..
" OH,WHAT A GENTLE MAN….I'M REALLY GLAD THAT IS HAD A FRIEND LIKE YOU..PLEASE TAKE CARE OF MY DAUGHTER AND ALSO SALLIE" MOM SAID SMILING..AND THEN SHE TAP HIS HEAD LIKE A DOGGIE..
"COME ON, LETS GO! THE TEACHERS ARE ALREADY THERE…BETTER HURRY.." HE SAID. AND HE OPENED UP THE DOOR AT THE FRONT FOR ME..
"SALLIE, WHERE DO YOU WANT TO SEAT?" I ASKED HER.
" I LIKE IT BETTER IN THE BACK, JUST TAKE THE SEAT AT THE FRONT" THEN SHE WINKED AT ME…NOT AGAIN..IS SHE PLAYING CUPID AGAIN?
SO I JUST TAKE THE FRONT SEAT, IN THE ROAD, WE TALKED SO MUCH ABOUT SILLY THINGS ..I CAN HELP BUT TO LAUGH SO HARD TO THEIR JOKES.. SALLIE MADE A JOKE THAT REALLY MAKE ME LAUGH SO BADLY THAT MY STOMACH HURT SO MUCH…BUT STILL I CANNOT STOP LAUGHING LIKE CRAZY.. I NOTICE WHENEVER I SMILE, DAVID STEAL A GLANCE FROM ME AND THEN SHAKE HIS HEAD. WHAT HIS PROBLEM.
WHEN WE ARRIVED… I SAW A MANSION WITH BEAUTIFUL AND DIFFERENT LIGHTS IN THE GARDEN..EVEN THOUGH IT WAS DARK BUT I CAN SEE HOW BEAUTIFUL THE LANDSCAPE IS..
AS WE ENTERED THE HOUSE I WAS SO SHOCKED! ALMOST ALL THE STUDENTS AND TEACHERS IN THE SCHOOL CAME… EVEN STEFFEN. MY HEART FLUTTERED WHEN I SEE HIM DRESS UP SO ELEGANT…
HE LOOK AT ME… AND I LOOK AWAY…
AS I PASSES BY, ALL THE STUDENTS ARE MESMERIZED BY HOW I LOOK..SOME OF THEM WANTED TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME TO POST IT TO INSTAGRAM. OF COURSE I DON'T WANT THEM TO SAY THAT IM SO ARROGANT, SO I AGREE.. THEN DAVID, PICK UP A MICROPHONE, AND STATED TO MAKE A SPEECH
" GOOD EVENING TEACHERS, FELLOW STUDENTS, AND MY BASKET BALL TEAM MATES…I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR COMING ..WELL, TODAYS PARTY MEANS TO ME SO MUCH.." HE SAID AT THE CROWDS..
AS HE CONTINUE TO SPEECH .. I CAN SAY THAT HE IS SO COOL… LOOK AT HIM, HE SMILE SO BRIGHT….I CAN SEE HIM FROM A FAR THAT HIS SO GOOD AT COMMUNICATING PEOPLE… MY EARS HEAR SO MANY VOICES AT THE BACK.
"HE'S KINDA CUTE.. I LIKE HIM..I WANT TO HIS KISSABLE CHEEKS.."
" I DON'T THINKS SO, HAHAHA, YOUR TOO SMALL FOR HIM AND HIS JUST TOO TALL FOR YOU, YOU JUST BREAK YOUR NECK WHEN YOU REACH HIM FOR A KISS."
"HE REALLY LOOKS LIKE JIN IN BTS MEMBER."
"OHH YESSS…I REMEMBER NOW..YEAH THEY REALLY LOOK A LIKE…"
" DON'T YOU KNOW THAT HE'S GOOD AT ART?"
"NO, IS HE?"
"YEAH, I SAW SOME OF IT…BUT HIS FATHER BURN IT CAUSE IT DOESN'T HELP HIM TO BE SUCCESSFUL.. AND OF COURSE, CHILDREN SHOULD OBEY.. THAT'S WHY HE STOP IT AND JOIN THE BASKETBALL TEAM. WHEN HIS FATHER KNOW IT, HE GROUNDED HIM IN 3 DAYS NO PHONES, NO PENCIL, PAPER, COLORING MATERIALS AND OTHER THINGS THAT HE LIKE.. EXCEPT BOOKS..BUT BECAUSE HIS DAD KNOWS THAT HIS FRIEND'S SON IS IN THE SAME TEAM AS HE.. HE JUST LET HIM PLAY BASKETBALL, HE WANTED HIM TO MAKE FRIEND WITH HIM.. I WAS JUST WANDERING THAT BEHIND HIS HUNDREDS SMILES HE WAS KEEPING THOUSANDS OF SADNESS…"
I WAS SO TOUCH OF WHAT I HEAR… POOR DAVID, I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING FROM HIM… I WANTED TO KNOW MORE ABOUT HIM…HOW COULD HIS FATHER MANIPULATE HIM LIKE THAT.
" BUT IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT I WOULD GAVE UP… WITH THE HELP OF MY FRIENDS, I CAN DO BETTER.. SO ENJOY THE PARTY AND HAVE A GREAT DAY!" HE ENDED HIS SPEECH.. AND GREET HIS TEAM MATES.
I LOOK FOR SALLIE AND I SAW HER BUSY CHATTING SOME FRIENDS.. I JUST SIGNED AT HER THAT I WILL GO OUT SIDE A LITTLE BIT.. MY MIND WONT STOP THINKING ABOUT HOW BEAUTIFUL THE GARDEN IS..
WHEN I WALK IN THE GARDEN…. I WAS SO HAPPY WHEN I SAW A LOT OF FIREFLIES.. I TAKE OFF MY HEELS AND WHEN MY FEET TOUCHES THE GROUND, I CAN FEEL HEAVEN IN IT…. YEAH! I REMEMBER GRANDMA USE TO CALLED THIS GRASS 'BERMUDA'.. I SING MY FAVORITE SONG AND STRECTH MY ARMS UP TO FEEL THE AIR COMING TO ME…
"I CAN BUY MYSELF FLOWER…..WRITE MY NAME IN THE SA-AND….TALK TO MY SELF FOR HO-UURR…STILL THINK YOU DON'T UNDERSTA-AAND" I SANG MADE SOME DANCE MOVE…AND TURN AROUND….AROUND… AND AROUND… UNTIL I FEEL SO DIZZY..AND LANDED MY BUTT ON THE GROUND..
"YOU OKAY?"
