Crime In Love Line

Chapter 14

"Happy birthday lodi...oo, yes nandito na yung Toyota Hiace mo, ang sosyal ah, iniispoil mo kami."

Nandito kami ngayon sa harapan ng bahay ni Aira dahil dito pinapunta ni Daryl ang van. We're all excited to see Francisco's mansion at Cabanatuan. The party would start at 5 in the afternoon at gabi ang pool party pero wala naman akong balak mag-swimming. Pang after-party na lang raw 'yon.

I'm also sure na mga high-class ang aattend roon. Sa laki ba naman ng circle ng mga Francisco. Daryl mentioned that it would only be a simple party pero alam namin na scam 'yon kaya ibinongga na rin namin ang mga sarili.

I'm wearing a dark olive satin cowl neck dress that ends above my knees. I partnered it with cream long-line blazer because I'm not used of wearing dresses that shows my skin too much. My 2 inches heels is a bit comfortable dahil medyo sanay naman akong maglakad sa ganito.

Nakalugay lang ang tuwid 'kong buhok. I wore a huggie earings, minimalist necklace and bracelet. My nude lipstick gave a sophisticated aura on my face.

Matagal na rin noong huli akong nag-ayos nang ganito. I always pick the comfortable outfits and I was too much lazy to wear makeup. But today is a party kaya naglaan talaga ako ng effort para mag-ayos ng sarili.

My girls are gorgeous as always. Ako ang nag-ayos kay Erin lalo na't hindi siya sanay sa mga ganito. She looks so much different today. She was elegant and pretty.

"Puta ka talaga Kevin, susupalpalin ko 'yang lalamunan mo!"

Yun nga lang...basagulera ang kilos at bunganga. She's wearing a mini dress pero kung umupo ay nakabukaka.

"Oo nga, si Jiro na lang hinihintay! Wag 'kang atat, celebrant."

Kausap ni Liam si Daryl sa phone. Late na si Jiro nang 20 minutes sa usapan. What's taking this guy so long?

"Para 'kang model, April." Biglang sulpot ni Luis sa gilid ko. "Ewan ko na lang sa reaksyon ni Daryl at Jiro kapag nakita ka."

I arched a brow. Ano raw? Wala pa man ang party ay lasing na kaagad itong si Luis.

Nagpaalam saglit si Aira na papasok raw muna siya ng bahay dahil may kukuhanin. Tuloy ay isa pa siya sa hinihintay namin. Liam being himself, ay sa loob na ng van naghihintay. Si Erin at Kevin ay gumagawa ng sarili nilang world war, while Missy and Luis were ranting about random things.

My lips parted at the man, walking towards our direction. He was wearing a formal black long sleeve polo and dirty white slacks. His dark brown belt gave him that stunning movement, as he walks by. His hair was in a fix which made him looked like...him.

Halos tumulo ang laway ko sa maangas na paglalakad niya. Our eyes met so I immediately looked away. My heart was screaming and my brain can't even function. He was damn handsome! I swallowed hard before hitting Liam's face.

"Aray ko puch- Aprilynn!" Sigaw ni Liam. He followed my gaze just to see Jiro, in his freaking gorgeous attire.

"Boang, April." Napairap si Liam. "Pogi ano? Patay na patay ka ba diyan?"

I didn't answered because Aira came back and assembled us by our seats.

"Dito si April, here ka, Jiro." Said Aira which made me trembled.

"Tingin tingin niyo diyan, Jiro, April...upo na! Ambabagal!" Sigaw sa amin ni Luis.

Nang walang kumilos sa amin ay nagsitawanan silang lahat. I slightly turned my head on Jiro and I caught him staring at me, as if he was mesmerized.

"Are you guys distracted to each other?" Natatawang sabi ni Missy. "Mygosh! Walang makakarating sa party kung hindi kayo kikilos."

"Mamaya na kayo mag titigan!" Tinulak ni Liam si Jiro papasok ng van. I followed. Si Kevin na makapal ang mukha ay sa shotgun seat pa umupo.
