Jexie's POV
Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa nang huminto ang kotsye sa harap ng event hall. Kinuha ko ang maskara ko mula sa deskboard at isinuot na iyon.
"Take care. Don't go in too much crowd, hmm?"
Kuya Javy said.
I just nodded as response.
Bubuksan ko na sana palabas ang kotsye ng magsalita na naman siya.
"At isa pa, wag kang iinom ng marami!"
I rolled my eyes into him.
"I know, i know. Can i get off now?"
Tumango na siya na ikinangiwi ko lang.
Hinawakan ko ang long red off shoulder dress at inayos ang suot na maskara.
Today—i mean, tonight is our Masquerade JS Prom. Once in 9 years lang nila ginaganap ang masquerade theme tulad ng ngayon. Ang iba ay hindi nasiyahan sa theme kasi daw, matatakpan make up nila. Yung iba naman tulad ko ay sumang ayon. Bakit?
Unang una, hindi na hasel sa pagkuha ng patner.
Pangalawa, kapag sasayaw ka, hindi kana mahihiya.
Pangatlo, wala, cool lang kasi ang dating.
As i said awhile ago, i was wearing a well knitted dress. My brother's jaw dropped open this morning when he saw me trying this dress.
Inasar niya ako na sa wakas ay nakita na niya akong babae ang dating. Nilugay ni mom ang buhok ko dahil nga sa off shoulder lang iyon.
Dad said, i was sexy in there but i just laughed my head off. Who would believe that?
I didn't put any make up. Just concealer and lipstick. Tutal magmamaskara naman eh. Magmukha ng clown, wala akong paki.
Hindi naman talaga sana ako aattend dito, meron nga lang isang kutong lupa na binantaan akong liligawan kapag hindi ako umattend.
Si Khuro iyon. Sabi niya, itutuloy niya ang panliligaw niya kapag hindi ako pumunta dito. Hindi naman siya dito nag aaral eh, sa mindanao.
Alam kong kagagawan na naman ito ni Venus para lang makasama sa programang ito.
I deep breath then started walking towards the wide hall full of dancing and drinking people.
I was about to take my last step in ladder when my black kitten heels got out of balance.
Shocks, hindi pa nagsisimula ang event, natatapilok nako.
After sudden seconds, an arm catches me from falling then helped me stand up.
"Take care, Xiexie"
Kumunot ang noo ko. "V-venus?"
"Hello M'lady"
Bati niya sabay bow pa.
Pinalo ko siya braso at nakisabay na sa paglakad.
"Pano moko nakilala?"
I asked.
Tulad ko, nakamaskara na din siya.
"Well, aside from your walking style, i asked kuya Javy kung ano ang ayos mo ngayon para makilala kita at masamahan"
He said.
He's wearing a white tuxedo paired with white pants. May color black lines ito sa gilid gilid. His hair was fixed.
Such a good looking, tall man.
Inamoy ko pa siya sabay asar.
"Aba, nagpapabango na tayo ngayon ah"
"Tsk, lagi kaya!"
Pag oover react niya na ikinatawa ko lang.
We walked inside in see a crazy crowd wearing their own outfits. I can't recognise any of them because of the masquerade.
