*Yale’s POV*
And the day has come. Big event na. Big event na. Big event na. God, kinakabahan ako. To think na matagal na din kaming hindi nanalo here sabi ng chairperson namin. Ito kasi yung big event ng college of business kaya medyo pinaghahandaan. It’s not that it’s only part of Humanities, it’s also a fund-raising activity. So over-all, it’s a required thing.
6pm.
“Where’s Jamaica and Jason na ba? Nakakainis. I’ve been trying to text them kanina pa. late daw! Grrr.”
“Don’t stress yourself, president. Hindi mo ikakaganda yan. Maghintay na lang tayo.” I said jokingly.
“Che! Isa ka pa. Asan na yung binili mo?”
“Ito oh!” Inabot ko yung binili kong cloth for Jason.
“WOW! Stunning! Ang ganda ganda. Look classmates, here is the outfit of Jason latuuuuh! How do you find?”
Naghiyawan yung classmate ko at nagpapalakpakan. So natuwa naman ako dun. To think na ang dami kong pinagdaanan diyan, no. Kota na ako sa “to think” nayan ha. Haha.
“Here!”
“Ano to?”
“Tanga yung binayad mo. Ako na maghahandle diyan.”
“Aw. You’re so sweet. Okay.” Kinuha ko na yung pera na inabot niya. Ito kasi yung sinabi niya na siya magbabayad sa damit.
Dumating na rin sina Jason and Jamaica, sabay pa ha. Nag-date ata ‘tong dalawang ‘to. Hindi kasi kami nagkita kita kahapon since may emergency raw silang pinuntahan. So sabi nung pres namin na, nakapagpractice naman na daw silang maglakad lakad at magproject. So wala namang problema, yung damit lang-- kung babagay o hindi.
“Jason, please come to Yale, isukat mo na yung damit mo. And Jamaica. Come to…. Oh wait? Where’s Patty?”
“Late daw rin siya e.” Sumagot yung Vice President namin.
“Hindi pa yun nasusukat ni Jamaica e. Bwisit talaga yang si Patty!”
After a minute..
“Oh yan na pala siya!”
“Oy Patty! Napakatagal mo! We’ve been texting you for a while. Hindi ka marunong mag-reply. Yang kilay mo na naman, tumataas. Baka gusto mong ahitin ko yan!”
Hindi na nakasagot si Patty. Maldita din kasi ‘tong si Patty pero kapag si Pres na yung nakasagutan niya, hindi na siya makakibo.
“Oh Jamaica, come to that girl at isukat mo yung outfit mo.”
“Okay!”
Medyo nagkaroon ng awkwardness sa pagitan ni Jamaica at Patty, mukhang may problema.
“What Jamaica? Tatanga-tanga ka na naman? Isukat mo na.”
“Duhh! Ikaw kaya dito ang magsuot ng wala? Kaya mo? Nakakainis kayo!” Oo nga naman. For the win Jamaica.
“Anong wala, tanungin mo si Patty!”
“Wala nga daw, te!”
“Ha?!”
“Sorry…”
Medyo nagulat din kaming lahat kay Patty. So that means, walang suot si Jamaica?
“Anong sorry?”
“Nakalimutan ko yung damit. But if you will push me, babalikan ko.”
“Late ka na nga, palpak ka pa!”
