"Laklakin mo Clyde!" Daniel shouted through the blasting music of the club sa kaibigan namin na nakatayo sa table at may hawak hawak na bote ng beer sa kamay.

Halos dalawang oras na kami sa el hiablo at halatang wala na sa sarili tong dalawa while on the other hand, me and Andrea remained sober para mabantayan sila dalawa.

"Andrea you want anything? Punta ako bar counter".

"Just a bottle of water lang siguro". I nod my head in response and strood my way towards the counter kung saan tanaw na tanaw ko si Aby na gumagawa ng drinks.

"Uy Kira, I thought wala kang pasok right now?"

"Nagkayayaan lang kasama barkada". I said, glancing on their direction to reassure that they're still okay and no harm will be inflected upon them.

I sat on the chair and waited for the bottle of water that I ordered for Clyde because Aby's still making drinks for the customer besides me.

I fished my phone out of my pocket and scroll through social media. Hindi naman sa pagiging stalker but I decided to check Ms. Evans account just to find out na we're not mutual na pala.

Napasimangot ako. I was so shocked earlier kasi a notification pop out with her name on it. Dali dali ko namang tiningnan yun and accepted her friend request.

But despite that, her friends tagged post are on public and I noticed that she always have this stoic look in her face. Parang walang emosyon at hindi man lang marunong ngumiti kahit sa camera.

"Felicity". A person poked me on my shoulder and I looked behind to know who is it. Si Andrea lang pala habang hawak hawak yung glasses nyang ngayong wasak na. "Iuwi na natin sila".

Magkasalubong ang mga kilay ng kaibigan kong pinatong ang sirang salamin sa bar counter.

"Sige wait lang. Kunin ko lang yun water natin".

She nod and pointed her index fingers sa glasses neto. "Can I have that tapon? Baka masakal ko yung dalawa while nakikita kong sira na yan".

Gagi, katakot talaga to pag galit. Andrea's a type of girl na sobrang calm at tahimik but knowing her for how many months, iba pala ito magalit.

I guess the saying's true na kung sino yung tahimik, sya yung mas delikado pag nagalit.

She turned her back on me at bumalik sa table ng mga kasama. "Aby, pakitapon na din ito".

Aby went in my way and took the glasses in top of the counter and threw it on the garbage can below her.

"Sino yun?" She said, referring to Andrea who's now sitting in our table while scowling.

"Ah si Andrea, kaibigan ko". Tumango tango ito and sumilay ang ngiti saking labi. "Single yan".

I chuckled when I noticed how she tried to hide her smile as she nod her head multiple times.

And now I'm back again as a cupid building bridges to meet two people while ako hindi ko man lang mahanapan sarili ko ng ka love life.

"Dalhin mo siya here ulit?" She shook her head immediately. "I mean kayo, punta kayo here ulit".

"Yeah sure, kunyare gusto mo kaming lahat yung bumalik".

The red haired girl rolled her eyes playfully at me before giving me the bottled water that I ordered.

I placed the payment in front of her but she rejected it. I insisted na ibigay sa kanya ngunit matigas din ang isang to.

"It's just water Kira, go na at mukhang sasabog na yung kasama niyo sa table".
