The school's much awaited gathering will happen this day. We didn't had classes for this day so we could prepare.
Nanay and Tatay is here with me at my condo. Later on, Bobby and his team will be here to glam me up.
At panay rin ang tawag sa akin ng badtrip na si Hannie.
"How can't I be pissed? Baka nga mas maganda pa 'yong partner ko kaysa sa' kin."
I tried to calm her but she was just so overreacting.
The party will start at four in the afternoon. And thirty minutes before the said time, all of us must be already with our respected partners, as we will all march in a hallway.
Kinabahan ako roon dahil wala naman kaming napag-usapan ni Kit. Hindi ko alam kung ano oras siya darating.
I hope he won't come late, though. I don't wanna be embarrassed in a larger group.
At one thirty, Bobby and his company arrived.
"Wala ka namang allergies sa make up, 'no? Don't worry, hypoallergenic naman ito lahat." Rene, or I should say Irene, told me.
Kalsie, the hairstylist, curled the tips of my hair. She said it's better to just let it down freely. Isinuot din niya sa akin ang malapad na headband na gawa sa makikintab na rhinestones.
Saktong alas tres, tapos na ako.
I was wearing a neon green satin dress. It's sleeveless, has a neckline that would reach the middle of my chest.
I thank everyone above that I don't have a huge boobs, just normal for a teenager, so I wouldn't have to deal with hiding my cleavage.
Ang crease folds sa may bandang tummy ang highlight ng dress para sa akin.
On the waist part, the dress is hugging me but not too tightly, and it still showed my curves. Sa baba naman ay bumagsak lang ito nang malaya at umabot lang hanggang sa taas ng aking ankle.
The heels I am wearing is a shining, glittery, T-strap. Plus, a tiny glittery wristlet. And it made my look complete.
Sakay ng sasakyan papuntang school, lumapit sa akin si Nanay at inabot ang pulang velvet box.
It was a set of diamond jewelries. Stud earrings, clavicle necklace, bracelets, and a ring.
I know this one, ito 'yong inutang niya noong dalaga pa siya. Pinaghirapan niya ito nang sobra dahil gustong-gusto niya ito.
She put it all on me gently, "Alagaan mo nang mabuti ang mga ito, Soccorro."
I kissed her on the forehead, "I will."
Si Tatay ang nagbukas ng pinto ng sasakyan nang pababa na ako. Tanaw ko mula rito sa gate ang dami ng estudyanteng nasa oval.
"Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! Jules!" alam ko na si Hannie iyon.
Hinanap ko siya sa kung saan. At nagulat na lang ako nang bumulaga siya sa harap namin.
"Grabe! Huwag kang ngingiti, Jules. Baka matibo na ako namg tuluyan."
My parents laugh.
"Oh, ah... Hannie, my parents. 'Nay, 'Tay, si Hannie po. Kaibigan ko."
Bumeso si Hannie sa kanila at nagkumustahan.
"We need to go. Lyet, mauna na kami. Hannie, it was nice to meet you." Tatay kissed me on the cheeks, "Have fun, okay?"
"Bye, girls! Have a blast, minsan lang 'yan." pahabol pa ni Nanay.
