Chapter 18: What?

LUCAS CAIN
~•~•~

"THANK YOU SO MUCH!" I thanked everyone with a genuine smile before heading to the back stage. I really appreciate their support!

I was taken aback when my circle of friends welcomed me sa backstage. Whoa, they are here. God, ang sweet naman nila.

"Grabe na kayo," I emotionally said. Naa-appreciate ko talaga yung support nila. "Talagang pumunta kayo dito just to support me ah,"

"Uy, iiyak na 'yan," Jazen teased.

"Basta ikaw, boi!" Tristan said.

"Kaka-proud kayang may kaibigan na sikat," Jayda mumbled.

"Sa true!" Vriella agreed.

"Ang galing mo kanina, Luke!" Suzette commented.

"Oo nga, parang hindi ikaw e," Mirco muttered.

"Pa-autograph na rin kaya ako? Pagmamayabang ko lang," Enzo joked and chuckled.

"Good work, Luke," Sixto murmured and nodded at me. "Keep up the good work,"

Sage tapped my shoulder. "You nailed it,"

"Thank you talaga mga kapatid!" I exclaimed and spread my arms."Group hug, everyone!"

"Yey!" And we all group hug.

God, I have no idea what I did to deserve these. Isa na siguro ako sa mga swerteng tao sa buong mundo dahil binigyan ako ni Lord ng mga solid na kaibigan. Paano na lang ako kung wala sila?

Kumunot ang noo ko after I broke our hug. I noticed that someone is missing. "Wait, where's Sinn?"

"Umuwi na, nakatulog si Kolleen e," Enzo answered.

"Eh? Nandito rin si Kolleen?!" I reacted.

"Oo, kakasabi lang e," Sixto shook his head.

"Wow," I gasped. They are all here pala talaga. Gosh, wala akong masabi.

"So? Care to tell us kung anong plano mo?" Jayda asked.

"Plan saan?"

"Sa next journey mo?" Vriella uttered.

"Ah," I get it now. "I was planning-"

"Shut up, Luke." Sixto cut me off and turned with our friends. "Sorry guys, not because kaibigan namin kayo you need to know about it na. It will remain confidential and the information is only between us, understand?"

"Grabe, ang serious mo naman, boi," Tristan murmured.

"Yeah, we understand," Suzette said and they all agreed.

I heavily sighed and spoke up."Thank you for understanding,"

"So, it's settled then." Sixto mumbled and looked at me. "Fix yourself now, you have a big day tomorrow,"

"Huh? What do you mean?" I asked, not sure of what is he talking about. Anong mayroon bukas?

"I'll tell you later," He replied. He turned around and leave us dumbfounded.

Wait, perhaps, it's about the good news earlier? Right?

"Oh, I think I should go now," Enzo said while looking at his phone.
