CHAPTER 8 LPD

Hi Lucille! Eto na yung dedic mo since you're the first one to ask for it haha. :) Sana magustuhan mo. :)

*Xander's POV*

*beep*   *beep*

*Today is March 12, 9:00 A.M.*

*Today is March 12, 9:00 A.M.*

*Today is March 12, 9:00 A.-*slam*

I slammed my alarm clock on the floor.  I sighed.  "Alam ko, wag mo nang ipaalala."

Nakahiga ako ngayon sa kama, my eyes glued to the ceiling. Sa palagay ko hindi naman talaga ako nakatulog ehh. Nakatitig lang ako sa kisame buong magdamag.

Hindi ko kayang pumikit. Parang lahat bumabalik ehh.

"March 12."  I said to myself. I sighed as I sat on the edge of the bed. Napalingon ako sa bedside table, pinindot ko yung button for voicemails.

Hinimas ko ng kamay ko ang mukha ko. Kailan ba matatapos to?

"You have 3 voicemails"

*toot*   "Xander, babe. Si Bonnie to. I know palagi mong hinihiling ang araw na to para sa sarili mo and I want you to know that I understand. Basta call me when you need me. I love you. Bye."

*toot*  "Xander, this your manager. Si Manny to. Alam ko mahirap pa rin para sayo to pero, kung kailangan mo ng kausap o kahit ano, just call me okay? Take care."

*toot* "Umm..Hi. Si Dionne to, remember me? Yung girl sa ospital? Yeah. I just wanted to call to see if you're okay. Tsaka sorry na rin talaga sa lahat. May party kami tonight for a fellow CV Vixen, Si Marj. Kung okay lang sana, I'm inviting you. Para na rin makilala mo siya. Call me when you get this. Bye."

Napadilat ang mata ko. Yung Marj? Party niya tonight?

She just seemed so familiar. Siguro dapat pumunta ko, para na rin makapagpasalamat sa kanya sa ginawa niyang pagtulong sakin.

Pero, iba ang araw na to para sakin ehh. Kakayanin ko bang lumabas?

I sighed.  "Ayoko na."  I said to myself.

*Marj's POV*

"Bottoms up girls!"  I yelled.

Strobe lights, loud music, dancing. Ito na ang buhay ko ngayon. Kapag isa ka sa mga elite models ng CV, it has it perks.

Lumingon sakin si Dionne and she laughed.  "Grabe Marj, party animal ka na ulit?"  she asked me.

I smirked.  "I'm always a party animal."  She giggled. Binangga niya ko ng beywang niya and I beamed.

Itinaas ko ang braso ko and I bopped to the beat. Annual party namin to for my arrival anniversary. Every year nangyayari to, pinaplano ni Dionne, ni She and a few of our other close friends.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit namin sine-celebrate ang anniversary ko dito pero, whatever. Basta masaya, magulo at maraming inuman.

I was lost in my thoughts nang lumapit si She sakin. She kissed me on the cheek. "So, are you enjoying your party?"

"Hindi. Ang pangit ng inorganize niyo. You guys suck."  biro ko. She pouted.

"Walanghiya ka talagang babae ka. Every year pinaghihirapan namin to no. Pagtiisan mo na lang."  biro din niya. Nagkatinginan kami at natawa sa isa't isa.

I took a sip of my drink.  "Ano, see any guys you like?"  tanong niya.

Tumingin ako sa paligid. Maraming lalaki, oo. They were all smiling at me and their eyes darkening with lust. I smirked.
