Chapter 21 (One Sided, Hopeless Romantic)

[SHY's POV]

7 PM sa isang beach resort sa Batangas gaganapin ang 18th birthday nina Joni at Mel. Umaga pa lang ay narito na kami. Kami ang in-charge sa Guests. 3 PM na at tsini-check namin nina Janeth at Demi ang lahat ng guest na nasa kani-kanilang hotel room.

"Everyone is here." Sabi ni Demi.

"Yeah, at it's our time to rest na muna." Si Janeth.

"You're right. Let's go." I said. Doon kasi kami mag-aayos. We are sharing one room, while Mel and Joni have their own.

As we arrived at our room, we take a nap for a while. At exact 5PM ay gumising kami't dumating na ang 3 stylist na kilala na namin.

"I haven't text the two. Kamusta na kaya sila?" Demi said while her stylist is busy curling her hair.

"They didn't even text us either." Si Janeth na nakapikit dahil nilalagyan s'ya ng eye shadow.

"Maybe, busy." I said.

6:20 PM, after ayusan ay magbihis ay na-upo muna kami.

"I think we have to go to the location na to entertain the guest." Demi said and I feel that she is a bit nervous.

"But our only job was done. Remember? 10 minutes more." Janeth insisted and continue taking pictures.

I sigh, "Is there any problem?" I asked Demi and Janeth stop her doing and we both look at Demi.

"Ahh, nothing. Nothing to worry about." She looks at the window and I observe her movements.

She is a bit shaky and confuse. One thing about Demi, she is a mysterious. She always hides the dark side of her, problems. She is good adviser to others but not to herself.

Exact 7PM nang bumating kami sa main hall ng resort. The place is simple yet so elegant. The white chandeliers and white roses around ang nagpaganda pa lalo sa lugar. Halos mga kakilala ko ang pumunta. Ang mga familiar and known ko ay; old close classmates way back high school na sa ibang bansa na nag-aral, classmates namin now, close teachers and professors, neighbor friends, family friends and relatives, business partners ng family, mga artistang friend ni Joni, by ni Mel na si Ernesto, bf ni Demi na si Roy, at friend nitong si Carlo, bf ni Janeth na si Gervin, ang boy band na GAZER (remember them?) isa sa member n'on ay bf ni Joni si Rovel, ang PARS, at si Kim.

At Demi, Janeth and I are the MCs. Well, I am not really good into this but I have to be.

"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen." We greeted. As in sabay kaming tatlo. We practiced it.

"We are all here to celebrate the two beautiful ladies who are now 18th!" si Demi.

"Yeah, it's been 18 years and we have witnessed how they both grown physically and emotionally... and now we will be the witnesses to another step of their life." I announced.

And Janeth, "Let's give a round of applause to Joni Lopez and Melody Flora." We all clap when we saw Joni and Mel with their escorts which are their boyfriends; Ernesto and Rovel.

Their parents and siblings are in the front of hall and they walk towards to their families. Mel hugs her parents and Pres. Flora, while Joni hugs her parents and her younger brother JC and ate Eliza.
