KOI NO YOKAN

CHAPTER THIRTY

When kuya Erreo's birthday arrived, we all made sure we're gonna gathered completely to celebrate it with him, he made a donation before his birthday and made sure to help out a lot as his gift, I only found out about it when Kwes told me but he also requested not other people knew it came from him.

They also ensured that the cakes gifted and given to him would be given to those who would for sure and would not let it go to waste, and he took some of it for the gathering we prepared for him.

"Wine?" Deroo asked as he eyed the wine bottle scattered on the table as they started cooking and grilling.

"Request ni Erreo, ayaw na niya uminom hard liquors." I heard Scalsky explained habang naglalagay siya ng mga plates and serving spoon.

"Ooooh," he answered amazingly, making me smile slightly at how cute he was.

"Kamusta, Ithiel?" he caught me watching me kaya tumabi siya sa upuan na nasa tabi ko, I nodded at him.

"I'm all good, ikaw?" he nodded and fixed the cap he was wearing.

Kaming tatlo ang natira sa labas, si Madrous nagluluto na.

"Excited sa tour pero medyo pagod lang din sa mga rehearsals and preparation," he said slowly making me smile at him.

"You look really excited about it," he nodded and the big smile on his face did not waver.

"I had a feeling about it that I can't pinpoint, but while we still can, make sure lang na mae-enjoy namin, we don't know when is the last time, right?" dahan dahan akong napatango sa sinabi niya at nginitian siya.

I couldn't shrug the thought out of my mind about what kuya Erreo and Jathen told me about the band, but I kept my mouth shut.

Maybe they're still thinking about it, or maybe they haven't decided about it that much. Baka mamaya nagulat lang sila or dala lang ng emosyon.

But I know kuya Erreo. It might be the situation for Jathen but I don't think kuya Erreo just had that thought now.

"Happy na, birthday pa, happy na, birthday pa, happy na birthday pa!" I shifted my attention to Kaelen when he started singing, may supot supot silang party hat habang nasa likuran niya si Fover and Croxell, may kanya kanya silang bitbit habang nagsasayaw at kumakanta sila.

When Deroo spotted them ay nakisabay siya kaya naging mas maingay kung nasaan kami.

Just like Scalsky's birthday this year, it was the same thing for kuya Erreo but different location and kind of smaller than the one we first stayed in.

Wala lang swimming pool tong place na nirent nila but the backyard is wide enough to have almost 16 people altogether, and there are so many lights too.

It doesn't have a pool pero maraming variety ng mga kung ano ano sa loob nang bahay, may table tennis and also a basketball arcade machine kung nasaan sila kuya Erreo and Kwes ngayon.

We rested a bit when we arrived around afternoon na kanina, some of us took a nap like Jathen naman hanggang ngayon 'di pa rin gising, so I'll change that into sleep and not nap anymore, some of them took a little time to rest for a bit and then went to the nearest supermarket around the place to gather some ingredients and food.

Hindi na rin nila hinayaan na humabol si Keetso and we also fetched him when we left earlier.

Himala rin na hindi tulog si Fover na umuupo na sa isa sa mga upuan ngayon habang nakatuon ang mga mata kay Kaelen na nakikipagkulitan kay Deroo.

Peverelle and Scalsky are the ones fixing the table as the other kids run and play and make noises, si Madrous naman naka-focus lang sa ginagawa niya which he always does, the other boys are using the other stuff inside and pouring their hearts out they acted all like kids.
