Flowers

Cloud's driving the raptor that I'm guessing he owns. I knew it. That aura I felt, it's class. I think they're rich, like different level. Duh, I saw Devin on Rex's graduation party.

"Lily"

Tawag ni kuya Jose, I'm with him and ate Katrina. Cloud's driving, and on the passenger seat Kaye is seated. Sa likod ako ni Cloud naka upo, pinili ko talaga dito dahil sa bintana. Si kuya Jose naman ay nasa kabilang gilid, sa gitna namin ay si ate Katrina na panay ang kwento

Tumigil lang si ate dahil sa pag tawag ni kuya Jose sa akin. Bumaling ako sa gawi niya

"Hmm?"

"You've been there right? Sa mga Javier?"

Gusto ko biglang mag laho. Tumaas ang isang kilay ni Cloud at ngumusi, kitang kita ko 'yon sa rearview mirror.

Tumingin patagilid si Kaye sa akin habang nakataas ang isang kilay. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko at agad na umiling

"Who's the Javiers?"

Of course, by now I know who the Javiers are

"I can't recall"

Dagdag ko pa, palusot. Siyempre kailangan kong isalba ang sarili sa kahihiyan. Wala naman si cloud o kaye non dahil Devin lang ang naalala ko, at si Tricia!

Kaya naman pala ganoon siya makatingin sa akin, may atraso pala ako. Teka, parang wala naman? Bakit parang ang init ng dugo nila sa akin? Kanina ko pa napapansin na tinititigan nila ako, kung hindi naman ay tumataas ang mga kilay nila

Before I could ruin my whole mood by analyzing their actions earlier, I just stared outside.

"Oo nga pala saglit lang kayo last year"

I nodded at kuya Jose, agreeing and somehow saying 'stop' using my eyes and eyebrows. It's not really a long ride from our house to this specific path we're taking.

It's somehow nostalgic for me. Maybe because I bleed literally after taking this path, although I enjoyed it very much because the scenery screams fantasy in a Hollywood movie. Everything is familiar and there's just this sudden flashbacks last year.

The huge gate opened by itself! I mean technically technology, but it still amazed me

My cousins beside me doesn't look surprised so I'm guessing that they're always here. Kaye and ate Kristina talked about fashion and friends all through out our way here

They talked about some ranch. Akala ko malaki na ang gate nila, may ilalawak pa pala ang bakod! May rancho at farm sila

Bumaba kami sa tapat ng malaking bahay, ang mansion. Bumaba ako sa raptor at saglit na tiningnan ang mansion, may mga naka abang na kasambahay sa hagdan paakyat ng main door. Nauna pa lang dumating ang Jeep Wrangler, kaya tumabi si kuya Peter sa akin ilang saglit lang

"Maganda 'di ba?"

Tanong niya habang naka masid pa rin ako sa mansion. Tumango lang ako at iniwas na ang tingin

"I hope you'll enjoy today, lil"

Kuya peter looked at me, I raised a brow and gave him a stern look. What does he mean?
