Maxine's POV
His friends looked at him
"Bro, why are you asking that"
"I see nothing wrong with it. Then let me change the question. Are you single?"
"I am"
He smirked.
"Come sit with us"
I sat down with them
"When are you planning to date Yamato?"
"He hasn't asked me out yet"
"Really? What a shame. Someone might steal you away you know... Like me."
"Pardon?"
"I'm kidding Hahaha. It's just that you're..."
He looked at me up and down
"You're exactly my type"
This is awkward. His friends are just staring at us.
"Bro chill... Yamato will kill you"
"After 10 years of being together? He didn't even ask her out Hahaha!"
"Uhh so, lets just change the topic. I'm Matteo."
"I'm Apollo"
"I'm Noah nice to meet you"
"I'm Eduardo"
"It's jay, I know that you know me"
Keith sighed.
"Nice to meet y'all. Yamato told me about you guys."
"What did he say?"
Our conversation continued for minutes until the event started.
Host: Good morning to all of you. It's exactly 9:00 am and we're about to start the party here!"
It's full of kids here. Bruh.
Is this a kid's party now?
Host: But before we start. Let me call on the birthday girl first! Kaia Maxine Guilia Abbruzzese! What a fancy name.
So, what do you want to say to the people who came here for you miss Abbruzzese?"
"Umm so, I wanted to say thank you to all of you for coming. And uhhh...."
I got distracted by Keith.
He looked at me with a lustful face
Host: Umm I think Miss Maxine needs a little more time haha. I understand you. You've been stuck inside the hospital for years that's why its new for you to talk in front of the many. Am I right?"
I just nodded.
Yamato... I think I understand you now. But you could've just told me to not invite Keith.

Maxine's POV
Right now, they're just having games for the kids.
This is why I hate kids.
They are vexatious
And look, they just stole my spotlight.
"Honey, how are you feeling? Are you hungry?"
"Nah, just bored"
"Don't worry, these kids will feel tired soon"
Host: Now that the games are done, let us now do the 18 roses!
They we're grabbing roses and shit please.
I hope Keith doesn't get any rose.
(It's part of the Philippine tradition when they are celebrating birthdays, there's 18 roses or 18 candles. (it depends on what's the age like for example you are 7 then there would be 7 roses) On the 18 roses, the boys will be given one rose each so there would be 18 of them. Then the birthday girl will dance with them one by one)
Host: To all the boys with roses, please line up
As expected, Keith has a rose.
Great
After I danced with them, it's now Keith's turn
All of them we're gentle and respectful, but this shithead right here.....
He pulled my waist to his and tightly gripped on it.
He started touching my waist down to my ass
"What the hell is wrong with you?" I whispered to him
"Why? Are you feeling uneasy?"
"Shut up-"
Bro not only he holds me like this, he's creating his own steps.
Everyone looked confused
"Wtf are you doing?!"
"Dancing"
Host: wow, this dance is a bit different huh?
"Keith, stop"
"Baby why? The crowd is going wild right now."
I pushed him away and he ended up falling.
Shit-
