Condo Boys (A Journey to Remember) [Boyxboy-Completed]

Chapter 12.4

The prediction of Ate was effortlessly ridiculous. Ayoko na lang siyang i-overthink dahil baka i-convert ko siya as a factual matter base na rin sa accuracy ng mga past predictions niya. Ayoko ring ma-conscious dahil kakasimula ko palang ng friendship sa tatlo. Ang hula ay isa lamang simpleng hula na pwedeng magkatotoo o hindi. So be it.

We formed a group and made a conversation. A girl talk was happening inside while boys had left in the balcony. At this vantage point, tanaw namin ang ilaw na nagkikislapang parang mga alitaptap galing sa mga building, cars and houses which made the scenery beautiful. Medyo malamig din ang hangin that made us chill. I'm beside Ken while Arsi and Loane is on the other side of the table.

"How are you Arsi? You mad?" paunang tanong ni Ken. Kanina pa namin siyang nakikitang medyo forced ang reaction even though he participates sometimes.

"Nope. Aleli is not my girlfriend but I do care for her now 'coz I invited her," he mentioned. Loane tapped his shoulder to give empathize with him.

"Okay lang 'yan, atleast, it's not that worse," payo ni Loane.

"I'm forgetting that shitty moment," batid ni Arsi. "Ayoko nang pag-usapan."

"Honestly, I'm not good with Ate's Husband," I said.  "I don't like what he did to Aleli and it's no excuse if he's saying the truth. He's just too dumb to say those insults. And... this is the first time that I saw him in person, come to think of it," pagpapaliwanag ko na tila dumidipensa.

"Hindi ka ba invited nung kasal ng Ate mo at hindi mo pa siya nakikita?" tanong ni Ken.

"It's a civil wedding that happened last year. After 3 months ko lang nalaman na kasal na si Ate because they made it a secret. We just accepted it kase 'yun na e, nandiyan na, nandyan na rin 'yung baby, wala na kaming magagawa," I explained.

"Sayang ang Ate mo nag-asawa ng maaga," Loane said.

"I agree. Pero alam niyo guys, alam kong may tinatago sila sa 'kin. I believe their relationship is in rough road kase nasa bahay namin si Ate not with his Husband's.

"Pero parang sweet naman sila kanina nung Cedric?" pagnotice ni Arsi.

"I'm not sure pero 'yun ang feeling ko. Ba't babalik si Ate sa bahay kung okay lang silang mag-asawa? But anyways, 'yun ang kutob ko. Ayoko lang pakialaman ang buhay may asawa ni Ate."

I tried not to dig deeper sa pag-uusap namin tungkol kay Ate because alam kong mas magandang pag-usapan ang positive side niya than the negative part. During the middle of conversation, ang topic ay napunta kay Ken.

"Ken you have an underwear show for Bench tomorrow right?" usisa ko.

"Yes! I want you guys to be there to scream my name."

"Alam mo naman Pare na absent ako diyan. I'm not a fangirl to cheer you. That's disgusting," ani Loane.

"May pupuntahan din ako Pare."- Arsi.

"Goodness. Pag-inuman at mga party always present kayo. But if I'll be flaunting my gorgeous sexy body, umaabsent kayo. Sinasadya niyo bang hindi makita ang maalindog kong katawan?" mention ni Ken while posing na fineflex ang muscle.

"Ewwwwwww..."- Arsi.

"It's uninteresting Bro. Pero two years ka palang naman diyan sa Bench. Maybe next year?"- Loane.

"Okay lang naman na hindi kayo sumama. Andun naman si Pareng Arjay na hahawak ng banner ko. Ano Pare?" sabay kindat niya sa 'kin. It made me feel uncomfortable kaya pakunot nuo ko siyang tiningnan.
