My Worst Best Friends (UNDER OF CONSTRUCTION)

The Parade

Chapter Two
After 3 weeks fiesta and parade na. "Sabi ko na nga ba ehh, late ako naka-formation na sila oh!" Sigaw ko habang natakbo at lapag sa bag ko. I'm so late because my lunatic baton was broken, and I have a wardrobe issues na kinainis ko. Sobrang sikip ng  custom at di kasaya yung boots na suot ko. So I had to make some alterations just to fit in.

"Ladies, positions" Sigaw ng band teacher slash coach namin.

Pumito na yung Majorette na seniors naming maganda na si Ate Candy sumunod yung Mainorette namin na si Ate Carly. Sign na ito na simula na yung parade at formation na.

We march and dance in tune of Sway, may minor errors pa sa mga lyrist since mga bago yung iba, but everything went good. My evil and mapagmataas na side ay umiral dahil di marunong kumembot yung mga nasa unahan ko. Basta sumali lang ba sila? Bakit ba gusto mo manginusulto eh.

We march forward and laging pa straight tas V shape yung formation namin hanggang sa lumabas kami ng school. After 1 hour ng pag-ikot sa buong barangay, we went back to the school at dumeretso sa canteen to eat some and remove my boots and costume .

I saw Dahlia na over joy dahil sa experience, but I don't feel that much since my replacement baton was ruined once again, while I was executing the steps. Asar na asar ako while looking at those baton. I was pissed and mad so I threw it sa malayo at sa pag dadabog ko natahimik ako. Dumaan kasi si Rain, sympre nakakahiya, I had a crush on him since we met. I whispered "Pag yan na inlove sa akin gagawin ko lahat ng efforts at makakapatay ako sa aagawa sa kanya". He had a side glance at lumapit sa akin. "Hi Jia" he serves me his sweetest smile. I think I'm melting.

"Hello Rain" I wave and smile at him.

"Sup? Mukang badtrip ka ah? Dahil ba yan sa nasira mong baton kaninang parade?" He grabs it on the floor.

"Oo, eh, Ang pangit di matibay, tapos nagka-issue ako sa costume slash band uniform natin" I rolled my eyes and he pat my shoulder.

"Hayaan mo na, bili ka na lang bago." Sabay ngisi, aba ang loko iniisip ata na may pambili ako lagi.

"Hi Ross" kaway sabay pa puppy eyes ni Dahlia na galing kabilang table.

"Oh! Dahlia ikaw pala yan" sabay ngiti ni Rain. Ano ba yan ngiti na yan! Shabu ba yan? Langya naadik ako? Teka bakit kilala nila ang isa't-isa?

"Wait mag kakilala kayo ni Dahlia, i mean Close? like close?" tanong ko ng may pag tataka. Dahlia answered me with a strange look. "Ahh oo."

"Classmate ko si Dahlia, Jia. And we're friends since elementary." Saad ni Rain. I just drop my jaw, and umiral naman yung jealous side ko. Why? naunahan na naman ba ako?

"Why naman Jia so sad? My probs ba about that?" Pag tatanong ni Dahlia sa akin. I was so pissed sa nalaman ko. This means war.

I answered her with my most sarcastic tone of voice "Uhmm, wala naman girl" and do my signiture taas kilay look. Naging tahimik yung paligid as Dahlia and I just staring at each other. Mukang nahalata na ni Rain na nag kakainitan na kami kaya binasag niya ang katahimikan na yon.

"Guys tara kain tayo, gutom na alipores ko sa tiyan." Rain jokes, about his growling stomach.
I am just mad kasi feeling ko may something jan sa Dahlia na yan, bakit umepal siya sa usapan namin.

The hilaw na Dahlia said to Rain habang nabili kami ng pagkain "Lagi ka namang gutom, kailan ka ba nabusog?"

"Ahh okey chill, Dahlia tara na" Sabay pa mag-lakad yung dalawa papunta ng Cashier.

Dahlia's POV
Nahahalata ko na parang type ni Jia si Ross ko. No! Hindi ako papayag akin lang si Ross. Pero, Jia is a good friend at parang kapatid na turing ko sa kanya, masaya siya kasama kahit na kakakilala lang namin sa isa't-isa. We had a few small talks and she mentioned na di pa siya nakaka-move on sa Alec na yon. But no, i will be selfish, kahit na kaibigan ko pa yan. What's mine is mine. Kaagaw ko na nga si Maxine, pati ba naman siya si Jia. Once is enough I have to fight for my feeling para kay Ross. I'll do everything, para makita niya rin ako.
