Chapter3: (First Kiss)

I did not lose hope. If I can, I will still go with my father when he goes to the hacienda. Sometimes, I see Ezekiel there, and sometimes not. If I saw him, he would only give me two looks and nothing while I was stunned to look at him.

"You know, Cat, Zeke is old for you. Those guys are mature. Look at this." She took this magazine and laid it in front of me. We are in a cafe now.

I ordered a milk mocha and donuts. It's too early to buy our clothes for our prom tonight. Summer is over, so I rarely see my Ezekiel at the hacienda.

My eyebrows rose when I saw it. This is not pictorial. It's as apparent as a stolen shot. The magazine has a big name, "Spotted and Dating," the Name of Ezekiel and Behati, who are models.

"Oh!? Cat got your tongue. They look sweet, oh!"

I blinked. Even Ezekiel is serious here while holding wine. And the woman was kissing his neck, and Zeke's hand was on the woman's thigh.

My heart aches. I drank the milk mocha and picked up the magazine.

I rubbed, tore, shredded, and trampled it! Cindy opened her mouth and almost laughed.

"I do not care! I still like Zeke! They'll break up soon! "I almost shouted that in madness.

Cindy frowned, trying to cover up the laughter. "Oh. Calm down. That's not funny. Don't wait for them to break up!"

"He'll have more girlfriends there! He'll still fall for me. When I get older, he will kneel to me. "I said confidently. Cindy just shook her head at what I said.

I will always remember the pictures. I cried, but I didn't let Cindy know.

I Call someone from a boutique where we choose our gowns.

"Nice Cat!" Cindy sighed.

"You choose. Daddy will take care of it." I smiled as I chose. At sixteen years old, my future is great. I am tall and will look like a princess if I decide on this gray gown. Moreover, the silver gown's color looks elegant. Silver is also one of the jewelry colors, so it is exquisite.

The ball gown is the theme of our prom. I chose the tube type, which will be a pair of gloves.

"That's beautiful, Cat!"

I nodded, "What about you?" I ask.

"Uh, it's pink!"

"Pretty!"

As women, we are entertained by this thing. We no longer need to buy makeup because Papa has already taken our makeup artist.

"I'm excited for later! My partner is handsome." Cindy said happily as we went home.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, we should be in Southland Tower. There, our prom was held. Before, I was watching what was happening, but now I can experience it.

"Zeus is cute," I commented.

"Yes, and you're alone. Why didn't Tristan invite you?"

"He's probably shy. "I said simply while busy texting Papa.

"Obviously."

When we got home, the helpers sorted out what we had bought and arranged for us to wear later. We eat again and sleep for energy tonight.

My body was light when I woke up at three o'clock. Cindy and I woke up almost at the same time. It wasn't just the first time she had slept here. She likes to sleep over here.

"Oh my! I'm excited!"

"Me too!"

We are side by side and facing the vanity mirror. I fix my hair while she does her makeup.

It's expected to be excited about this at my age. The more I wore my gown. I look like a princess in my glittering ball gown. My jaw tightened because of my curly hair.

"You're so beautiful, Catalina!" Cindy exclaimed. Our professional makeup artist just smiled.

I couldn't help but tremble as I went down the stairs. Papa was all smiles. My smile widened even more because I could see the joy in his eyes.

"My daughter is lovely. "

"Thanks, Papa. "

He kissed me on the forehead. He also stroked my hair.

"Hija, I'm going somewhere later. I might not be able to watch you at your prom."

I laughed at what Dad said. "It's okay! I can do it myself, and my driver is there."

"Just call me." He reminds me.

"Yes, Dad!"

"Besides, Montenegro is one of your school's sponsors. We're best friends so that someone will watch over you just in case."

Oh Shit! My heart jumped! Does the Lord hear my grievances?

I almost hit Cindy in the car!

"Ouch, Catalena! You are ruining my hair, do!"

I blinked and fixed her hair without damaging it.

"Maybe Montenegro Cindy was there!"

"Your dad didn't say if it's Ezekiel! Maybe it's his dad!"

She has a point. Well! Come what may. I think positively, and no one can ruin my night!

The outside of the Southland Tower glows. The pretentious one has a pictorial first with a watermark before entering!

"Wonderful!"

"Of course. The sponsors of our school will be great. The college extensions are even more spectacular here."

Elegant cars are also lined up outside. The floor was red carpeted to enter.

Cindy and I did a few poses before entering. We introduced other acquaintances and classmates.

"Tristan!" Cindy is called Tristan. My lips parted when I saw him. His eyeglasses are gone. Is it a coincidence that his necktie and my gown are the same color?

"You're cute without eyeglasses!" I admire Cindy. Suddenly, someone called Cindy, and it was her partner tonight.

"See you later, Cinds! Do you have a car later?"

"Yes. Dad will pick me up."

"All right!"

Zeus had already pulled her too were. Zeus's serious look at me. I just shrugged and smiled at Tristan.

"You're beautiful, Catalena."

Instead, question. "Where is your partner?" I started walking, and he followed me.

"I have no partner. "

"Huh, why?"

He scratched his head and blushed. Uh, I get it!

My classmates waved at me. There was a vacancy at their table, so I chose to sit there. Darla was at the other table, her eyes immediately fixed on me from head to toe.

I didn't care about her and stared at her. I don't care what she's wearing. I want to enjoy the night!

Tristan sat down next to me, and I just let him. Tonight is not for me but for everyone.

Many look at me, and I wave to them even though I don't know them. They smile back at me and look at me again and again.

I just sighed and focused. The celebration had already begun, and as the emcee spoke on stage pompously, the meals and appetizers were served. Wines will only be made for sponsors and are forbidden to us.

I just realized how much I enjoyed being called by my name.

"Catalena Moira Condez! Our Queen of the night! "

My lips parted as Zeus was on stage smiling. The playboy of our school smirked arrogantly.

Cindy and I all applauded, accompanied by everyone. Tristan also looked after me to take me to the stage. I have heard many praises and whispers.

I was given a small crown and sash as the Queen of the night. So is Zeus. And the usual descent on stage will be the King of the night dancing to the Queen.

"You rejected me," whispered Zeus. The number of dancers began to increase. I can't find Cindy either.

"And so?" I said, bored.

"Are you that numb?" I was irritated by this question.

I took a deep breath, constantly searching my eyes.

"I'm not numb, Zeus. I don't want to be courted by anyone. Can we sit down?"

He eventually gave up and took me to my seat. My heart jumped because, despite the dim light, I saw Zeke! Yes, Ezekiel! He's here!

Oh my! He was seriously drinking wine and was next to some sponsors who were also watching. Does it mean he saw me on stage earlier?

"Zeke!" I called him cheerfully. My mood returned tonight. I should have raised an eyebrow and looked at Zeus.

When Zeus felt that he was no longer needed, he left.

"Hi, Zeke!" I repeated and came even closer to Zeke. Suddenly, it stood up and approached me. I almost fell for the unexpected he did.

"Let's go home." He says coldly.

"Huh?" my smile faded.

He said goodbye to acquaintances before he pulled me away. It looks like he's still from the office and just stopped here, but he's still handsome. He's just wearing a white polo shirt.

"W-Wait, I think I'll be here for an hour."

We were outside, and someone threw his key from a valet.

"Just tell me if you don't want to go home yet. I'll tell your dad, and I'll go home. I'm fucking tired." he said coldly and swallowed the senses.

Shit! It's okay! If I can get in his car.

"I'm going home!" I chirped. His forehead furrowed, and he nodded.

"Where's my driver?" I ask.

He made me look at him. "So, you're sixteen?" he suddenly asks.

I nodded, "I will be seventeen soon!".

He just tightened his jaw and opened the front seat for me.

"Get in." He speaks. I don't want to sleep tonight with him. Because it's only once, I wonder if it will happen again.

"What?" he asked, confusing me.

"Is the one in the magazine your girlfriend?"

He looked at me a few times. He looked into my eyes alternately.

"Yeah."

I nodded in despair. "Do you love her?"

His eyebrows met even more.

"No."

Oh!

"Uh, are you hurting a kid? I mean, a girl my age?"

His jaw tightened even more at my question. He is losing his temper.

"No."

I was almost celebrating.

"Hop in," he said to me again.

"Uh, wait!" I pulled on his polo sleeve and clasped my hand around his neck. Thanks to my heels!

My lips touched his soft lips and smelled of wine like mint! Shit!

My first kiss!

His eyes narrowed at what I had done, and his lips parted. It's just a smack!

He stroked his hair and looked at me in disbelief. I saw how he blinked hard and shook his head as I smiled and touched my lips. I even licked it. Oh my! I'm going to die!

"Fucking get in Catalena, for god’s sake!" his thrilling growl to me seemed he was stressed from what I did.

"Yes, boss!"

The door of the one I was sitting inside slammed shut, and he lingered outside. I wanted to laugh because I saw him looking up. He seemed to like having a big problem. He harshly pulled off his necktie and unbuttoned his polo shirt as if choking.

Damn! I love him so much.
