Dressed in white colored top, black skirt, partnered with black sneakers. Her accessories are sooooo extra because it was from a known designer company. Her shoulder bag screams wealth and fashion, alright. I just sighed and shook my head upon seeing Chesa’s outfit for tonight's dinner. She looks like the main character in her looks. I mean, she's the excess baggage here, isn't she?

“I think you're too overdressed,” I commented.

“I think you're too envious. Why not change into something... fashionable? Right, dear?”

Napairap nalang ako. Alam ko naman na feelers kami minsan pero masyado naman siyang sosyaley sa awra niya na yan. Pero sige, hayaan na natin. Bagay naman sa kaniya. She's pretty and confident and I like that part of her.

“Joke lang! You're pretty, Miss Flight Attendant,” at kumindat pa nga ang bruhilda.

Umalis nalang kami dahil nag chat na ang mga kasama ko na on the way na sila. Si Chesa ang pinagdrive ko dahil tinatamad akong magmaneho ngayon. Na stuck pa kami sa traffic dahil taenamersss, rush hour! Kung minamalas ka nga naman.

“Okayyy??? Kailan tayo makakarating? Calculation, Miss FA?”

Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin. “What do you think of me? Alam kung kailan uusad ang traffic? You're asking me to calculate when I'm not even good at math.”

“But you love numbers.”

“Who the hell said I love numbers? Kinda true but only if it's money.”

“Mukhang pera, langya.”

“We're on the same page. Stop playing innocent.”

“But I am innocent,” she gave me her most 'innocent' look.

I grimaced. Hindi na lang ako nagsalita pa dahil malapit na akong ma stress sa traffic. Walang pag-asa yata na umusad ito.

Nagpa music nalang ako para ma relax naman ako kahit papano. My playlist is full of Taylor Swift's music. Some were korean songs. I played the easiest one. English and most familiar to me para naman makasabay kami ni Chesa.

“There's somethin' 'bout the way
The street looks when it's just rained
There's a glow off the pavement

You walk me to the car
And you know I wanna ask you to dance right there
In the middle of the parking lot
Yeah”

Sumasabay pa ang ulo namin sa beat. Just by hearing my Mommy's voice made me relax. Gosh! Taylor Swift, I love you so much!

“We're drivin' down the road
I wonder if you know
I'm tryin' so hard not to get caught up now

But you're just so cool
Run your hands through your hair
Absentmindedly makin' me want you”

Kinanta namin ang part na yan with feelings. Natawa nalang kaming dalawa.

“I am thinking of him dahil sa kanta. Sana ikaw rin,” ngumisi si Chesa sa akin na ikinatawa ko nalang dahil tama siya.

Dahil sa kanta ay naisip ko bigla si Zandriel. I suddenly remembered the day when he fetched me using his car, during high school. So random, alright.

Nakarating kami sa lugar na hindi late, hindi rin early. Sakto lang dahil pare-pareho pala kaming na stuck sa traffic. Sakto lang ang traffic para gutumin kaming lahat.

“Uhm, guys. I want you to meet my best friend, Chesa. Ches, my colleagues.”

“Hi, everyone! It's so very nice to meet you all,” friendly ang bff ko kaya understandable na ganyan siya bumati. “Gosh, you're so tall!”
