Rovi chuckled. “Of course! I want to hear your voice and I miss you. Sorry, I can’t manage to see you. I hope you understand.”
“I understand. Don’t you have any time limit today? There might be a patient waiting for you.” she said although she doesn’t want to end up their conversation.
“Oh, yes… I’ll call you later.” he said. “I love you.” he added then turns off the line. She’s smiling after the call; she can feel the warm of his love for her. They were back to the first page but different from the first one yet she really feels the love that Rovi gives.
Rovi was smiling while he was in front of the house of Dizon Family. He sent message unto Mjay to open the gate for him. He smiled when Mjay opened it and looked at him with a smile on her lips. “She’s at her room.” she said softly.
“I see… Where’s your mom?” he asked. Before Mjay answered his question, he saw Mrs. Dizon. He went inside the house and gave his respect and gift for the mother of his beloved. “This is for you, Auntie.” he said then gave the paper bag. “I hope you like it and I hope you consider me for your daughter, Grace.”
“Thank you.” Mrs. Dizon said. “You’re welcome on this house as long as you don’t hurt my daughter.”
He smiled with his eyes sparkling. “I promise, Auntie, I won’t.”
Mrs. Dizon smiled at him. He doesn’t know what was he really feels but he’s overwhelmed. He asked Mjay to call out Grace. He really wants to surprise her.
“That’s your visitor.” she heard Mjay said then left her.
She looked at her visitor. She knew him by the way his back and nape but she doesn’t want to assume that it was really him because he told her on the phone that he can’t see her. She’s slowly wait for her visitor to turn when he didn’t turn, she slowly walk for her not to get his attention. She was stunned when he turned his head and their eyes meet. She saw a smile drawing into his lips. She saw his eyes sparkling and it seems everything is in slow motion when she saw him stand with amusement all over his face.
“Hi!” he greeted.
She’s right! She knew that it was Doctor Rovi Jimenez but still she wants to confirm it herself. She can’t hide how surprised she was and how she’s happy seeing him once again. She smiled at him. “Hi!” she greeted back. “You told me earlier that—”
She heard him chuckled. “Sorry, I lied because I want to surprise you.”
She laughed. “You really surprised me.”
“Oh, by the way, this is for you.” Rovi says and give the bouquet of red roses.
“Thank you for this flowers.” she said.
“By the way, I want to invite you out today. Just you and me for celebrating that your health came back to normal and also as a date.” he said.
“Wait, I haven’t said anything to my mom and also, I’m not ready yet.”
“Its fine, I told your mom already, she said it’s okay and all I have to do is to send you back here safe and sound. I can wait until you’re ready. I’ll be fine here.” he said.
She smiled at him before she went upstairs. She’s looking for a cocktail dress that she hasn’t wear before. She decided to wear the black sleeveless cocktail dress, which is just below the knee matching with a black wedge sandal. She ponytail her hair into half and put some light make-up on her face. When she saw herself fine and ready, she picked her black body bag that she always used whenever she’s out for a fashion show. While she was walking downstairs, she saw Rovi was looking at her with full of admiration on his eyes. She noticed his clothes; he was wearing white three-fort polo with black color on the collar and the pocket. He’s wearing a black slacks and tan color leather shoes. It wasn’t her intention to wear a black dress that will match the clothes that Rovi wore. It seems everything she sees is a fantasy and a dream she never imagined before.
“You really are a beauty, never fades.” he whispered on her ears when she got unto where Rovi was standing.
She saw her mother coming out of the kitchen. “Remember to drive her home safe and sound.”
“I will, Auntie.” she heard him say with a full smile drawn on his lips.
“Keep safe.” she heard her mother reminded.
Rovi opened the door for her; he also opened the door on his car. He’s so gentleman that she can’t compare to anyone. While he was driving, he can’t help but to smile due to overflowing happiness he feels. The long wait is over when he finally had the day that he really wait for so long. They went to the restaurant that he a room reserved for two, two days before this day. He wants to make everything special because he’s with the most special woman in his life. He pulled the chair for Grace and let her sit and then he sat on the opposite chair to face her. He smiled at her. “Thank you for coming with me as a celebration of your health regained and as my date.” he said. He saw her smiled back. “I don’t know how to express this happiness, the feeling of being so overwhelmed while I’m with you.”
