Chapter 31.2
Accidentally or Coincidentally?
Cassie's POVNew York City Ballet.I am staring at their website page on my laptop screen, as usual. It's like it has been a part of my morning ritual,
trying to long for that dream I know I'll never be able to live.New York City Ballet is one of the most prestigious ballet companies existing in the world. It would be a great honor for a ballerina to be invited to becone a part of the troupe. That is why it is impossible for me to reach this dream. Membership is by invitation only; and by invitation, you have to be in the other side of the country and perform for them. Yes, they don't have any Asian members.
Unfortunately for me, sorry,
pang-local lang eh. But if only they could expand here in Asia, I have a bigger chance of becoming NYCB's first Asian ballerina. Sure, I could go to the other side of the world and perform; but truth is, I can't. I am lacking financial support.
Yes, our family is currently experiencing some financial crisis.
*SIGH*
I was still staring on my laptop screen when I heard someone knock on my door. I stood up from my chair and headed to the door. When I opened it, I could feel the blood all over my body going to my face. :">
"
D--David. W--what are you doing here?"
I asked him, trying to hide my excess happiness.
"
Why? Porket ba nanliligaw ako sayo bawal na akong bumisita?"
"
Wala akong sinasabing ganun. 
"
Pero next time sabihan mo naman ako. Baka mahulog ang puso ko nito ng di oras eh. 
:">"
Anyway, I just dropped by to tell you to get ready by 3pm. Pack some of your clothes and prepare your passport."
I felt my heart skip a beat. Oh my. What is he planning? Is he asking me to...elope with him? Haha!
ASA. "
Uh... Where are we going? And why do I need a passport? We are not going to Iraq, are we?"
He flashed his "killer smile" then he laughed.
"
Don't worry. I'm not planning anything...nasty. Promise. Just prepare, okay?"
"
Okay, fine. I trust you. But once you break my trust in you, you'll be sorry. That's why you better make sure that whatever it is
that you are planning, I'll love it."
Ever since David started courting me, our relationship with one another became less...formal.
Wala ng boss boss. Haha!
"
Well, I am hoping that you'll love it. So, I'll be here 3pm sharp and you better be ready."
He winked at me and then he left.
I wonder where he'll take me. Is he going to sweep me off my feet? Hmm...
To be continued...
