*Fast forward 2 years (lazy author here)*
3rd person POV:
Since you and Michael already graduated when you were 16 (both skipped a few grades), Michael waited until Sophia's graduation before getting ready with the wedding.
Being an awesome sister and bridesmaid, of course you helped out. Helping out with the decorations that they wanted, helped out with Inviting- oh and of course you would invite Alice. As if you'd forget about her.
You only visited her once per month since you got busy with military and business training with your parents.
And after relentlessly working to make sure your brothers wedding was perfect, and just the way they liked it, you went to the nearby Mall to shop for gifts for both of them.
Not expecting a certain ice cream girl.
As you looked through the shops, looking for preferably heels for Sophia and shoes for Michael, you spotted the same girl you gave the ice cream to. You still laughed at the encounter whenever you remembered it.
"Not expecting to meet you here again, ice cream girl" You approached her, seeing her few boxes that she was going to buy. "Dami ahh"
"Lakas mo naman maka ice cream girl jan, donya pangalan ko." She huffed, having a soft smile "Pagpipilian ko pa mga gusto ko" she gestured at the boxes.
"If you want, libre na kita basta tulungan mo ko" You knew she probably had the same taste as Sophia since they both had the same vibe.
"Weh? Ano ba kailangan ko'ng gawin?" She asked, putting on her original heels and putting the boxes aside.
Y - "Eh, I need to pick a gift for my sister in law, ka vibe mo s'ya so I have a feeling mas magugustuhan n'ya yung gift ko pag may tumulong."
D - "Alright, I'll help.. Basta panindigan mo yung sinabi mo ah libre mo ko." She giggled before helping you.
You both browsed through the sections, whenever donya suggested something you would make fun of her causing you to both laugh.
"Tingnan mo kasi oh, ano ba gagawin jan bat may ganyan pa" You laughed as you whispered to her about the unreasonable design.
"Oo nga eh, ngayon ko lang nakita! Yung first picked na nga lang piliin mo." She giggled trying to control her voice as she put the heel back and grabbed her boxes.
You went to the counter together, tinupad mo yung salita mo at syempre nilibre mo na din. Helping her carry the bag with boxes of heels.
"Ah, I never asked for your number pala." Donya brought out her phone, waiting for you to dictate your number.
You replied, and also asked her a few questions after. "By the way, Diba tiga San Manuel ka? Why are you here in Manila?" You asked curiously.
"Pinayagan muna 'ko nila Papa mag cool off, nag away pa kasi. So I just went here since may condo naman kami here." Donya explained, feeling a bit embarrassed about her situation.
