Jamies's Condo—10:11 AM
"My head hurts so bad." A half-awake Mixo grunted with visible exhaustion in her voice. The latter scanned the room—only to be met with its cozy interior. Jam's Condo, she thought immediately. Mico reached for her phone and checked the time. Hindi na siya nagulat. After all, it's a sunday. That explains why they were reckless, all-out, and free nung celebration nila kagabi. Despite that, may advisory pa rin from their Coach.
Although Mico hates it—and only felt like laying down...she stood up to find the owner of the condo. She's been here several times pero unang dalaw niya 'to this month. Kabisado niya na yung mga kwarto, kaya ang inaasahan niyang makikita niya sa kwarto ni Jamie ay si Jamie mismo. Agad niyang binuksan ang pinto, only to see...."Sydney?" Kahit mababaw ang tono ay maririnig ang boses nito, pero parang hangin ang kausap niya. (na humihilik)

Mico — 11:15 AM
"Knock out kayong lahat kagabi, I'm surprised na gising ka na. Sumandali lang ako mag grocery kahit papaano, kasi naubos na rin stock ko." Jamie explained, I just nodded as a response. "Jamie.. May biogesic ka? Sasabog na yata 'tong ulo ko," Cade said out of nowhere. Mukhang tinamaan na ng hangover. "Bumili ako isang banig, oh." Jamie didn't bother cutting one out and just tossed it to Cade.

At this hour, lunch is already nearing. No wonder why me and Jamie are cooking. (or atleast she wanted me to help her since the two are still slumping)
"Akin na 'yan, Mico." "Ito?" "Hindii, yung yellow na container!" "Ahhh ito??" "Mico, sa tingin mo aanhin natin 'yang mustard?" "Ay, sorry."

"Ang taray niyo naman ate Jamie. Usually kasi yung pang cure ko sa hangover ay luckyme chicken noodles e," sabi ni Sydney habang damang dama ang lasa ng sinigang na niluto namin ni Jamie. Cade laughed and said, "Kuhang kuha mo bunso, buti pala kapag dito kina Jamie eh healthy ang pagkain. Kapag kasi kay Mico, stock lang ng ramen makikita mo." I furrowed my eyebrows, teka lang? Napasa nanaman sa'kin. "Hoy excuse me, sarap na sarap ka nga sa spicy ramen ko eh!" "Oh 'di ba ramen lover tal-" As Cade was to finish her sentence, someone knocked on the door and a voice not so distant filled the little silence from the previous sound. "Jamieeee! Papasok na ako ha!" Jamie hastily went to the door to greet the owner of the feminine voice. She was visibly shocked by the arrival. "I guess she had other plans," Cade whispered. "Mhm"

Jamie PoV — Front Door
"Az!" pabulong kong sabi. "May kasama ka ba?" Az said while taking a peek. "Nawala sa isip ko na pupunta ka rito.. Akala ko nakapag reply na ako sa message mo. Sorry.." I apologized with guilt laced within my voice. "Okay lang Jamie, ano ka ba. Nag lunch ka na ba?" "Just eating pa lang, sila Sydney kumakain na roon. Tara?"

"So ayun na nga! Nabangga ni Mico yung nakakita sa sumbrero niya. Tapos kaibigan pala ni Azura." I explained. "Si ate Andy? Oo, nakita namin sa kfc nung nakaraan. Buti nga kami nakakita eh, sinoot pa 'yon ni ate kasi umulan." Mico smiled at what Azura. Halata ka na masiyado ah. "Anyway, alam niyo ba!" Sydney excitedly giggled. "Hindi pa" We all said unisonly and she frowned. "Ano ba 'yan.. Eh kasi may pogandang sumali sa dance troupe namin. Actually ang galing niya nga eh, guys.. What if siya na talaga? Kaso mediyo masungit eh... Pero what if mabait naman talaga? Snob kasi siya na tahimik pero ang p-" Sydney's enthusiasm made us laugh. "Sydney, kalma ka lang. Hindi lilipad 'yang pogi sa dance troupe niyo." Cade teased. "Sorry ate, pogi talaga eh. Gusto ko na siya." "Lover girl na ang bunso namin." Cade's eyes showing pure amusement.

3rd-Person
"Ah, by the way. I'm interested sa friends mo," Mico said to Azura. All of them being oblivious to the fact that the purpose of that was for Mico to know more about the cap girl. Even though she mentally took note of the beautiful name Azura mentioned—she'd still call her "cap girl" Mico thinks it won't hurt if she thinks that the person who took care of her special cap, will also be special to her someday. Only if she's fortunate, if she is.
"Friends ko o kay ate Andy?" Andy mumbled silently, with the intent of keeping the thought to herself. (or probably for Jamie to hear it so they could exchange sheepish smiles that would go unnoticed by the group) Recalling the afternoon the two that bumped against eachother. Just like a movie plot. Yet, it just so happened that Mico's ears were working a little too well today that she heard. "Ehem, uh anyways. What were you saying?" Mico acted like she wasn't caught red handed.
"Wala naman.. Sabi ko it's good if we all get a little get together. 'Di ba, Jamie?" "Mm, that seems fun." Azura didn't fail to smile upon Jamie twinkling eyes. I'm more than glad I have you, Jamie.

Mico — Living Room
"Oh? You joined a dance troupe? That's amazing, Gel. Makikita ka na rin namin sumayaw." Azura smiled while talking on the phone. Although it may seem a little too familiar, Sydney was just recently head over bakod for the newcomer in her dance troupe.
She glanced at Sydney who's getting a drink at the kitchen. What if I do some digging?
