Here I am, listening to my mother. Her sermons and advices about me still being single at the age of twenty seven. I want to roll my eyes but heck this will never end if I go bratty on her. She called me after she heard that I rejected Jason. 

I groaned and look at my Dad he was now busy smiling and rubbing my mother's back trying to calm her down but him looking like that doesn't look convincing to me instead of making her stop it looks like he was encouraging her to talk more!

"Mama, " I said and sighed trying to calm down, I wanted to roll my eyes and walk out but not this time. Her being furious and hysterical was not a good combination definitely not a good timing to ignore her sermons.

"Don't Mama me September! My God! You're already twenty seven years old, still no boyfriend!" she spatted, I glared at Papa who were now chuckling at Mama like he found this entertaining to watched.

"Papa naman! Make mama calm down, " I said to Papa more like asking for his help. He shrugged and smiled at me. 

"Hija, your Mama is right. You're already successful, we already gave you the freedom you wanted we agreed to this and you said yes you will give it a try, " he said. I sighed and massaged my neck, I can feel the tension building. 

"Yes, but i'm not in a hurry! I want to settle down too but relationship and commitment, marriage and family is not that easy Mama!" I said, almost begging for her to stop. She rolled her eyes and glared at me, hawak ang kanyang pamaypay at ekshaderang pinapaypay iyon sa sarili niya. Mama is gorgeous up until now, her royal beauty with a defined jaw, turn up nose, almond eyes and thin lips that compliment her face, well defined brows and thick natural lashes she looks like a beauty queen. She aged, but the saying 'age is just a number' suits her well.

I looked at Papa who is now looking at me. He was the defination of strong yet gentle man. He is someone who in his youth girls would cry and begged just to be with him, Thick brows, downturned set of eye with a color of gray, nose is turn up and thick but defined lips, jaw that you want to caress while cuddling with him.

"I know Hija, but please you're not getting any younger, and you have to learn to let go of that hate it's no good for you, " Mama said, she is calmed now but I know she was trying hard to maintained it. I smiled and looked at them. Now that she mentioned it, I really think I can't more like I don't want to. 

"Yes Mama, I want to take my time. I want to find a love like you and Papa have, " I said as an excuse partly because of the part that I don't want to let go of the pain yet it keeps me sane I looked at them and smiled, she sighed and walked closer to me. She hug me and whisper her 'i love you' I whispered 'I love you too' and chatted with them more. I missed the mansion, I missed them.

Hapon na ng nagpasyahan ko na umalis na sa mansyon. They escorted me outside and waved their goodbyes. Agad naman akong sumakay sa aking sasakyan at nagdrive na paalis sa mansyon.

I had my dinner at the restaurant near my condo and after I drove to the nearest club. I parked my car and entered the club, madami nang tao kung sa bagay ten pm na ng gabi, nagsisimula na maging crowded na ang bar.

Agad akong naglakad sa bar counter, wearing a black croptop and a high waist black skirt and a flare heeled boots, speaks comforts.

"Miss. September, welcome back, " the bartender greeted me. I smiled and said my hello.

"The usual Miss?" he asked me, I nodded.

"alright, " he said and made my usual order. Humarap ako sa crowd at tinignan ang paligid. The people looks like more hyped now.

Hmm, I saw some familiar faces, some of them are members of the Elites, the young bachelors and politician's daughters and sons. This bar is the cool place of the rich and richest, aside sa mahigpit ang security nila they offer the best drinks, and cool games, modern yet classy interiors and designs and the highest paid DJ every night.

"Here you go Miss. September, enjoy! " sabi nung bartender agad ko naman iyong kinuha pagkatapos magpasalamat sa kanya, tumango lang ito at nagpatuloy na sa ginagawa. I sighed as I take a sipped of my drink, heaven!

Enjoying my drink, I glanced at my side and saw Mr. Make me pregnant guy walking towards my direction with a usual arrogant smirk were plastered on his face. Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay at ngumisi.

"Good to see you here Miss. Gonzales, " he said and sat beside my stool infront of the counter then signaled the waiter for his order, I looked at him still grinning.

"Oh! Mr. Adams no need to be too formal, " I said, he chuckled and look at me now holding his glass. He leaned closer and whispered, I can feel his seductive breath makes me shivers.

"What should I call you then?" he asked. I gulped and looked at him, agad akong napatingin sa kanyang nakaawang na labi, his smirk is still visible I can hear my heart thumping hard na para bang maya maya ay aatakihin ako sa puso. "Eyes up here" he said, agad akong tumikhim at nagbitiw sa kanyang titig. I heared him chuckled like he find this scene amusing. 

"Can I call you September? Or can I call you mine?" he jokingly added. Agad akong napasinghap. I am now looking at him with wide eyes, lips parted, 

cheeks burning. 

"Y-you can call me Dale" I whispered. He gazed at me, confused. Only few people calls me Dale. 

"Dale? I thought your name is September? But nah, I'd rather call you baby, " he answered and winked at me. Napakunot ang aking noo, I thought he is snob but hearing those words from him makes me think was like them. The boys who will spit sweet words just to get into someone's pants. 

"I see you're like them, " I said, more like accusing him. He laugh and look at me again, this time more intense and his eyes there was dancing amusement in every word I said and him being playful is already too much. 

"Maybe or maybe not" He answered to my accusations, not minding my words. "You know, you amazed me and I think you're mysterious, a puzzle that needs to be solved," he added. He was now staring at the crowd getting wild as the dj is playing a wild and louder beat. 

"Why is that?" I asked, looking at him. Admiring his features, wondering what is he thinking. He smiled, and there goes my heart again. Am I doomed? I had past shares of relationships but none of them make me feel like this after what happened, I wonder if it was because the wild crowed, the beaming lights, or maybe the drinks? Weird. 

"Because you are you, I mean you could have just followed what your parents wants for you but they gave you freedom for you wants and dreams, you're never afraid to take any risk and you are mysterious in some kind of way, " He asnwered. napakunot ang aking noo. Why does he sound like he knows me? And mysterious? Am I that cold? Or what? 

"Why do you sound like you know me?" I asked him, still amazed of this statement. 

"Someday you will found out why, " he said and stared straight into my eyes as he said those words like he was mirroring my soul.
