Chapter 72

Miguel's pov

Blushing bright red, I looked up to gauge mom's reaction on their close proximity to me, but all I saw was a beaming woman.

"You've always managed to take my breathe away Everytime I gaze upon your lovely face,"  Donald also bent, and like Daniel did, he pecked me on my throat.

"Oh my gosh!" mom exclaimed as she takes uncountable pictures of the four of us together "I didn't think I will live to see a day like this," she fanned herself with the hand that isn't holding on to her phone.

" Hashtag my son on his first date," shre beams to herself.

"Am grateful we're your first." Daniel  murmured lowly so only I can hear.

I don't think my cheeks can take anymore blushing hotness for today.

"Mom, you're embarrassing me," I  give her a glare.

One she waved off as nothing "I won't keep you all here since my son is impatient to have you three alone with him," she chuckles lowly.

Kill me die. This woman is truly going to be the death of me with her teasing carefree nature.

"We will see you some other time mom."Donald  gave her his award winning smile.

" Go on,"  she makes a shooing motion " you've got an impatient male to take on a date,"  a winks at me " make good of your time while you're still young."

I can't believe this woman and her carefree way.

"I love your mom," Daniel  said as he opened the passenger seat for me to sit on.

"Grumpy Damien is not happy you've not spent sometime with him like you've with I and Donald,"  Daniel leaned in closer to whisper.

His breath fanning my neck made me shiver in anticipation of what of something sweet.

All buckled up, Damien drove out of my family's property, and drove towards the direction of their house.

"We're having the date at our house, hope you're okay with it?" Donald asked when he saw the confused look on my face.

I shrug "am okay with anything you decide on."

I said those words with double meanings hiding in it.

"You will love it, I promise!" Daniel's euthuasiasm is as contagious as any communicable airborne diseases.

Minutes later, and am still looking for what I will love according to Daniel.

Since we came into their house, it's been from one boring stuff to another, and they even went to the extent of putting a crime show when they couldn't find the CDs they normally keep around.

So far, so good this date of a thing is not in the least what I expected from it, neither is it as romantic as novels and movies portrays it to be, with sparkling stars, lite candle lights, soft low music, and a five star course.

But right here I am, without a thing to show am on a date.

Not even food have been served to me.

"How's your experience so far?" Daniel beamed as he dances to the tune of a tuneless music "I hope you're enjoying yourself," he  smiles, dancing more as the music fastened its tempo.

I look around the whole room, and thought of the disaster of a first date

"it's the best I ever heard of or seen! The assorted food, the slow romantic music,and the candles are too notch," I  said as sarcastically as I can muster.

This truly is the last time I will go on a date. The trips knows how to dress and look handsome, but they don't know how to treat a guest right.

"What do you mean by your words? don't you like the date we painstakingly arranged solely for your enjoyment?" he give me an incredulous look.

" I love this date; it's the best in a million, but I won't be caught dead in a date this exquisite,"  I said , not in any way bothered to at least spook their ego a bit.

"You mean you don't like this?" H e gestures at himself and the entire house. 

It's only the two of us here, Damien and Daniel went to get something they forgot from the mall when they three went there.

"I will take my dull uneventful family to this boring as hell date. This isn't called a date, it's called a dart,"  I stood to leave.

Staying here and looking at this place will make me more angry than I am.

it will make me regret accepting their offer for a date.

Someone covered my eye from the back, at first I was startled until I heard Damien's voice.

"Why are you covering my eyes?"

"We have a surprise for you," he  says as he steers me towards the so called gift's location.

I would have scoffed at their surprise, but I had to keep a little optimism in me.

who knows if the surprise will be something to make their dull as their date a bit better?

He've been guilding me for close to a minute, and I have half the mind to tell him I don't want to view the surprise again, but I persevered.

"Ta da" he lets go of his palm covering my eyes.

"-"

I stood as speechless as baby who haven't learnt to talk, as I viewed what's in front of me.

I don't know how to explain this, neither do I know how to go about the expressions am suppose to make use of in a situation like this.

The sight left me totally speechless, my tongue cleft to my mouth.

"Say something Miguel" Damien's shy impatient voice was what snapped me of whatever speechless land I might have gone to.

"This is just wow," I spoke in awe of the sight in front of me. Earlier I was missing about the date being as dull and uneventful as I've seen others.

Looking at the sight in front of me make me want to catch those thoughts and words, and swallow them so the won't be heard for all eternity.

Electric bulbs were wired to resemble floating love, it's sparkling light made it more a sight to behold.
