Devie Louvelle.

"Great! So pupunta tayo ng bar later?" He asked happily.

"Sure!" There's nothing wrong naman, 'di ba? I'm single. And I'm not gonna waste myself with someone who doesn't deserves me.

It's Conway. The one who creepily called me 'Evie.' But I didn't mind it anymore.

I need to be happy.

"Later. 7 pm sharp. I'll pick you on your house. Is it a'right?"

I don't know, but I feel comfortable with his smile. And.. looks like my heart knows him.. Or maybe I was just exaggerating.

"Yeah. Bye then!" I can even manage to smile. Why? May masama ba?

Hindi porke't sinaktan ako kahapon ng gagong 'yon, hindi na ako pwedeng maging masaya. Like what? The hampaslupa skills? Umiiyak. Nagmumukmok. Tulala. Malungkot. Gano'n? Pwes, hindi ako tulad ng iniisip niyo.

But one thing I made sure of...

I'm Brave.

6: 43 p.m.

"Tss. You look gorgeous with that dress, and yet you still look like a witch."

I gave him my death glare.

"Kidding." Tumawa na din siya. "Pero, teka, sino ba 'yang susundo sa 'yo, ha?! Don't tell me, date 'yan?!"

Psh. Ayan nanaman siya sa pagiging protective niya. Like seriously, siya naman talaga ang nagpakilala sa 'kin kay Conway.

"Basta."

6: 58 p.m.

I take a look of myself infront of my body-sized mirror.

Lalo lang akong gumanda. Psh.

"Dammit, Evie. You're the damn goddess of beauty!"

Napatigil ako nang marinig ko ang boses na 'yon.

"Conway? Pa'no ka nakapasok dito?" Baka nakita siya ni Kuya Calvin? Palaaway pa naman ang kuya kong 'yan. Kahit sino na lang.

"Hmm.. wala. Wala lang."

Napakamot ako sa batok. Minsan talaga, ang gulo din kausap ng mga lalaki.

"O-okay."

He genuinely smiled.

"So.. come on?" He offered his arms so I clinged on him.

"Let's get it on."

Pagkababa namin...

"What the fuck, Devie Louvelle?! Bakit siya nandito?! Ha?!"

Uh-oh. Wrong move.

"I'm here to pick her up, bro." Conway answered. Hope he'll not lose his patience.

"Fuck, Conway. Ano nanamang kagaguhan 'to?!"

I can't stop but throw him a poker-face. Ang hilig talagang magmura.

"It's not called kagaguhan, bro. It's called pasimple." Ngumisi pa si Conway kay kuya. Lang'ya ka talaga, Conway!

Lalo tuloy sumama ang tingin sakanya ni Kuya.

"Ano.. Kuya, It's just a sign of friendship, no more. Don't worry."

"Fuck! Alright. You asshole, take care of my sister, or I'll fuckin' rip your goddamn neck!"
