Camsdcute’s Lair

For those out there needing the contact number of Yellow Cab branches, CLICK HERE FOR THE LIST. I made a separate post for this because the list is very long.

The last time I was in Baguio, in our ‘home sweet home’, I stayed at my brother’s bedroom because it’s been 7 years since I last used my own room and I felt scared sleeping there all by myself. Since Harvy, my cousin, visited us, we let him sleep in my room instead. Every 9:00 P.M. my mom would command us to sleep since she doesn’t want to hear any sound that will wake her up. She has difficulties in sleeping. The 9 PM curfew seemed hard to obey because we’re night owls. My room is beside my parents’ room in the 2nd floor and Harvy is always escorted by my mom so she can be assured Harvy is not going to play around and stay up late. Carlo and I would then wait for a few minutes waiting for our parents to be sound asleep. Once we hear the snoring, we’ll sneak up in my room and ask Harvy to go downstairs in Carlo’s room so the three of us can chat and watch movies until early in the morning. This has been a routine. The three of us would chip in to have pizza delivered, usually by Pizza Volante.

On the 4th night of this routine, we decided to order from Yellow Cab instead. Carlo and I counted the coins from the bottle which Mom won in the Christmas party and we used that to pay for the pizza. It was our gift to Harvy because it’s his birthday. However, on this night, we were caught by my mom still watching movies at around 2:00 A.M so she scolded us and Harvy was asked to return to my room. After a couple of minutes, Carlo and I were calling him a million times on his cell phone so he’ll get up and have his share of pizza but to our surprise, he is already in deep sleep. Since we’re having a hard time waking up Harvy, Carlo went outside the house so he can knock at the window of my room still determined. My room was in the second floor so it was really much of an effort for Carlo to go there. I was laughing all night because all the dogs in the neighborhood went barking when Carlo climbed up. After that, he returned unsuccessful, Harvy still snoring.

We just ate up all the pizza and hid the box inside the oven so mom won’t even know it.

While browsing for technical education and career articles, my attention was diverted to a text message from Merryll. She was so happy because last night, Mark had proposed to her.

After a long wait and seven years of rewarding relationship, Mark decided he wants Merryll to be his partner for life. So I digged the story on how Mark proposed to her. I am always eager to hear marriage proposal stories especially if it’s a creative one.

After having their typical lovers’ quarrel, Mark went to our office to pick Merryll up and take her to a dinner at Vivere Sky Lounge (on the 31st floor,  rooftop) in Alabang Hotel. Mark handed a bouquet of flowers as a peace offering and Merryll smiled. She hadn’t suspected that something was up because they always go to different restaurants to try out new dishes. After a long ride to Alabang, they finally got to their seats which Mark had reserved. They were seated outside in a corner with the metropolis as the backdrop. It offers exquisite international entrees and there is good music while you’re dining. I think this really is a perfect place to propose or just have a date for your anniversary.

Mark was waiting for the right timing and waited for the nearby guests to leave before executing his plan. He asked Merryll if she wants to order some more and try out some desserts just to buy some time for the others to leave. Merryll said that her outfit is somewhat unqualified for the luxurious place such as that. She was just in her usual jeans and shirt and even left her earrings because of the rush to attend an early meeting in the office. Mark put on the necklace at Merryll then he knelt and popped the magic question “Will you marry me?” Merryll hasn’t heard it so well and is conscious that other people might see Mark kneeling so she said “Yes, just get up!” Mark repeated the question and confirmed that the answer is really yes. I think Merryll was blushing in joy because she had waited so long for this time to come.

Cheers to Mark! It was really a surprise to Merryll.
