Habang umiinom kami, bigla naman siyang tumayo para sunggaban ng fist bump ang dalawang lalaki na kakarating lang."You finally brought your date here." Sabi naman nung isa. Nakasuot lamang siya ng dark blue sleeves dress na hanggang elbow ang tupi at naka-tucked-in iyon sa black niyang trouser with black belt. Few buttons are open revealing his chest skin.
"Hi." The other one greeted. This one wear a monaco fitted stretch shirt and olive pants. I can also see some skin on his chest.
Wow his friends are nice too! Nag beso lang ako sakanilang dalawa at umupo.
"Why are you stunned?" He asked. I didn't know he's besides me. Kaya napalunok ako sa hiya.
"I'm hotter." Dagdag pa niya. Napakagat labi nalang ako sa sinabi niya.
"Drew right? You're from Nursing department?" Tanong nung naka white si Holden.
"Umm. Yes" Nahihiyang sagot ko sabay inom sa shot glass.
"Oh! You're the nursing student that Tim—"
"Shut up, Logan!" Hindi na natapos ni Logan ang sasabihin niya dahil pinatahimik na siya ni Jael.
Oh my! Halos hindi na ako mapakali dahil nahihiya na ako sa mga friends niya! Nag paalam muna akong mag restroom para umihi at mag retouch.
Busy ako mag retouch sa counterpart. When someone entered the room. Namumugto ang mga mata niya. Why is she crying?
"Hey, what happened?" Nag aalalang tanong ko sakaniya. She wiped her tears and brush off her lips with her tongue para maalis ang nanunuyot nitong labi.
"Do you like Jael? Kaya kaba umiiyak dahil mag kasama kami?" Her face change. Parang gulat na gulat sa mga tanong ko. Bakit hindi ba?
"Tim? Of course not! Nabigla lang ako kasi ano—hmmm never mind ."
"You look pretty." She added. Putting some strands at the back of my ear.
"Really?! Ikaw din! Kaya wag ka nang umiyak!" I cheered her up. Lalagyan ko sana siya ng make up pero tumanggi siya.
Oo nga pala! She doesn't like make up. We talk for a bit bago siya lumabas ng restroom.
"Just let me know if he hurts you, okay?" Sabi niya ulit ng bahagyang buksan ang pinto para silipin ako. I nodded for an answer.
Si Agente talaga!
Nang matapos ako mag-ayos ay lumabas na ako ng restroom. Napaabante pa ako sa gulat dahil naka abang siya sakin sa pinto pag bukas ko.
"You're taking forever." Naiinip na sabi niya. I went to kiss him on the cheeks . Like it was nothing, at hinila siya pabalik sa taas.
"Did you put make up on him? Or blush on?" Nagtatakang tanong nilang dalawa. Napalingon naman ako sa likuran kung saan siya nakatayo.
Omy god! Sobrang pula ng mukha niya! Maybe he drunk too much?!
"Hey, are you okay?" nag aalalang tanong ko sakaniya. I held his arms and pressed myself on his side.
"His turning into tomato..." i heard logan whisper to Holden. Both of them laughed.
"I'll have to use the bathroom" he excuses. Tumango naman ako at hinayaan siyang umalis. Umupo nalang ulit ako doon sa pwesto ko at uminom.
"I've heard you're an athlete? A team captain to be precise." Logan asked. Gosh! Wala bang tagalog speaking sa circle of friends niya?
"Ah, oo. Bakit?"
