FORTY-FIFTH
“Look, I tweeted this while taking a shit and when I was finished, it already has 50 thousand likes,” anunsyo ni Hayden pagkalabas ng banyo kaya napalingon ang mga pinsan niya sa kaniya.
“Hayden, anything you tweet gains thousands of likes in no time because you’re a man whore. People like to feast on any part of your skin.”
“But... Kai...” tawag ni Eze sa pinsan nang makita ang tinweet ni Hayden.
“It’s a... period.”
“Exactly! It’s a fucking dot!” tuwang-tuwang anang ni Hayden kaya lumapit sa kaniya sina Samuel, Pete, at Sebastian upang tingnan ang sinasabi niya.
“That’s unfair. When I tweet, nobody cares,” ani Sam.
“Because you’re a weeb. Your username is from an anime, nobody knows that’s you. Meanwhile, Hayden here uses his real name and thirsty people gather around his account to wait for him to post a topless pic or anything juicy,” sagot naman Kai kaya napakibit-balikat si Samuel.
“So, saan ka pupunta? Walang pasok, ah?” May panunukso sa boses ni Eze dahil nag-wax pa ng buhok si Hayden. Mukhang aakyat ng ligaw.
“Kailan ba napirmi sa bahay ‘yan?” sabat ni Kai at isinandal ang ulo sa sofa habang nakatingin sa telepono niya.
“I, my good sirs, have a date. And it will be a great one.”
“Pasalubong!” hirit ni Pete pagkalingon sa direksyon ni Hayden.
“Paslabong?” kunot-noong tanong ni Hayden kaya bahagyang natawa ang mga kasama niya.
“Don’t mind him. Good luck with your date. Take care,” hatid ni Eze kay Hayden palabas ng BR, nakahawak siya sa balikat ng pinsan.
“Oh, could you tell Pietro that our plan for tomorrow is cancelled? I might get lucky tonight and therefore wouldn’t be able to come home early tomorrow,” mapaglarong saad ni Hayden kaya natatawang napailing-iling na lang si Eze.
“Alright, I’ll tell him that when I see him.”
“Tell him every word I said, especially the getting lucky tonight part so he’d feel how single he is,” tatawa-tawang anang ni Hayden at tuluyan nang lumabas.
Pagkasara ng pintuan ng BR ay saktong tumunog ang telepono ni Hayden. Akala niya’y si Mel ito kaya naman agad niya itong sinagot habang naglalakad palabas ng bahay.

Mel is wearing an elegant red bodycon dress. She’s also wearing her favorite perfume. Hayden specifically told her that today’s going to be extra special that’s why she can’t help but giggle every time she remembers the sly, teasing smirk on his gorgeous face.
“Wow! You look stunning, Mel!” lapit ni XZ sa kaibigan nang makita ito. Mel’s beautiful face is really highlighted because of her dress and it even matches the color of her lipstick.
“Thank you. Alam mo naman, mana lang sayo,” pabirong tugon ni Mel kaya natawa si XZ.
“So, what’s the special occasion?” kinikilig na tanong ni XZ. She really likes Mel and Hayden together because they have the same wavelength, they’re a fun couple. Even their physical attributes complement each other; they’re both good-looking and her tanned skin looks good on his much fairer skin tone.
“I don’t know, he just said tonight’s going to be extra special. I think he’s going to ask me to be his girlfriend again!” Mel squealed, slightly jumping up and down with excitement.
