Capítulo 25: Date With Adonis-Part 1
Maya's POV
I felt so happy when I return to the Hernandez mansion and I found Adonis talking with Rich, and I can't help but smile. He looks so handsome wearing a polo shirt and slacks, and I suddenly felt worried for I don't have a new dress to wear. My only presentable dress is the one given to me by Lisa on my last birthday. I love the floral mini dress that perfectly fits my body, it is so modest that is why I love wearing it.
"Hello, Maya!" They both greeted me the moment they glanced in my direction, I plan to go directly to the back house to change, but it is a bit rude not to talk with them, so I let Jocelyn walk ahead of me, and I face the two irresistible young masters in our place. They both smiled at me and I can't help the smile that formed in my mouth, even though I felt so conscious because I know I smell of sweat and dirt, I still try my best to look calm, but I stay far away from them as possible.
"Hello, guys!" I responded, and as I peek at Adonis I blush when I found him gaping at me like a schoolboy. He looks so adorable, and I can't help myself but look at his red lips, and I can feel butterflies in my chest.
"Hmm, if you will excuse me for a while, I will just change my clothes." I muttered for I am so lost for words.
"Sure, take your time, Maya, I will just be here waiting for you." Adonis replied and he winked at me that made me blush, I turn around saying nothing. As I get inside Jo is waiting for me with a wide grin on her face.
"Wow! Adonis is so smitten by you, don't let him suffer Maya, you look good together." She said.
"You know that is not true, Jo, he is way too handsome for me and rich." I said weakly.
"Hey, he likes you, that is what matters the most, besides he will be so lucky to have you as a girlfriend. You have to acknowledge to yourself that you are beautiful, Maya. You are perfect for each other." Jo responded and she is looking at me mesmerized.
"You are so lucky, if Adonis Monleon asked me on a date, I think I will faint before I can say yes." She declared and I can't help myself to laugh. I said goodbye to Jocelyn after I changed my clothes and go out quickly from the staff house. I found Adonis leaning on a pick-up truck, and I realized I will always be shocked with his rides, I know they have a lot of cars in their garage, but I couldn't imagine I will be given the privilege to ride expensive cars. He is looking straight into my eyes with admiration on his face, and if he won't stop looking at me like that I think I am going to melt. I look away from him and search the area for Rich, but he is no longer around. It left me no choice, but to look back at him.
He already opens the car door for me, the hair on the back of my neck stands the moment I felt his body gets closer to me after I was seated in the car. Adonis leaned down and I felt so excited and conscious at the same time for I don't want him to kiss me since I did not take a bath yet. But I can feel him pull the set belt and he buckles it for me, and I feel so ashamed of myself for expecting him to kiss me. I know I am blushing and I am just glad he didn't look at my face before he turned around and go to the driver's seat.
"Maya, I asked our cook on duty to prepare dinner for your family since I don't want you to be worried, and I want us to be on time with our date, and of course I want to spend more time with you." Adonis declared as he stopped the car in front of our house. He surprised me with what he had done. I didn't wait for him to open the door for me. I get out immediately as he gets the basket from the back of the car. He brings the basket and he walks beside me in going inside our house.
I get so conscious for our house is so small and I can tell he is not so used to this kind of place.
"Adonis, thank you so much, you don't need to do this since I can ask my sister to cook dinner just for this time." I said.
"I know you, Maya, you will not feel at ease unless you prepared everything for them, and you make me feel so drawn to you, now that I know you." He replied and out of the corner of my eye I saw my sister standing in the corner gazing at Adonis like he is a superstar, and I motioned her to come forward.
"Mary, please transfer the food so I can wash the containers and return them to Adonis." I said.
"You don't need to do that Maya, I will not bring back the food containers to the house." He said, and I am shocked to find so many dishes which include desserts.
"Maya, take a bath now, so you can leave early and you can enjoy your date." Mary said as she waved her hands at Adonis, then she pushed me to go to my room to get my towels and toiletries since the bathroom is on the outside of the house. I excuse myself from him and he just nodded. My sister and Adonis are talking like they were close friends and I can hear his laughter in the background and it seems he is having a great time with Mary, and I wonder how could my sister acts so confident in front of him.
I take a bath fast and when I get back inside the house I felt glad that my sister took Adonis outside, in front of our house near our garden, and I can tell he is sitting on the bamboo bench. I know I can rely on Mary for she didn't want Adonis to see me like this since I still have towels wrapped around my head and my body. I go to our room quickly and I put on my favorite dress. I combed my hair and I want to make it dry, but I don't have a hairdryer. I put on some lipstick on my lips, and as usual, I get it from my sister's collections.
Adonis stands up quickly the moment I get out of the door, and the way he looks at me is telling me he likes what he saw.
"Wow! You look so beautiful, Maya!" He said and I saw my sister winked at me and she thumbs up, and I can't contain my smile.
"Thank you, Adonis!" I replied.
"Mary, don't forget the medicines of grandma." I said and I turn my head to look at her, and she looks so thrilled and excited for me.
"Don't worry, Aya, I can take care of everything, and Adonis, please make my sister happy." She replies and gets inside the house in a haste, and I want to glare at her for saying those words, but she is no longer there, so I just shake my head. And I can't stop feeling so excited the moment Adonis takes my hand as we go to his car.
"Thank you, Maya, for giving me this chance to be with you, I promise you will gonna love our date." Adonis said, and he smiles at me before he starts the wild truck.
"This is a dream come true to me, Adonis, to be honest, I have been dreaming to be on a date with you and I thought it would not come true if you just realized how many times I wished on the falling star just to have your attention, and right now, everything is surreal for me." I said as he takes my hand, and I can't stop myself to feel so excited, and I don't want to look away from him for I can't cease admiring his handsome face and calm demeanor.
"Wow! I am flattered that the sexiest and the most beautiful girl in San Antonio was dreaming to have a date with me, this is reality, Maya, and I want you to enjoy our moments together. Looking at you with that dress takes my breath away, you are so lovely, and I am lost of adjectives to describe your natural beauty." He said and I feel my face flush.
"I know I have been a jerk to you for how many years, but it doesn't mean I don't find you attractive, you are always beautiful in my eyes, Maya." He added.
"Can you stop doing that, Adonis? I am getting embarrassed." I said because I don't know what to say.
"You don't need to be embarrassed, Maya, it is the truth." He said, and he focuses his attention on the road while he did not let go of my hand. He drove at maximum speed as we reached the highway, and I thought we will have our dinner at the town Capital, but it seems he is going to the City. I have been thinking about this moment, but now that I am actually beside him in his car, I still feel like dreaming, and I don't want to wake up.
He turned right, and I am shocked that he is taking a different path and we are not going to the metropolis. I saw that we were going to the famous restaurant in the country on the top of the mountain, I only heard of this place, but never been there for it is very expensive, and only the wealthy individuals can afford their menu. And now I become worried for I don't know how to use the utensils in the classy restaurant, but I wish the things I learned from my Home Economics class will save me from total embarrassment.
