********************************************

Dapat talaga hindi ko na sinubukang imbitahin si Eloise eh. Ngayon gusto ko na lang mag evaporate.

I'm still waiting for her answer. Please, say yes. Please, say yes.

"Well... Okay. Sure. Text me the address."

Pumilas s'ya ng papel sa notebook na hawak n'ya at kinuha ang ball pen n'ya sa bulsa. SInulat n'ya doon ang number n'ya at ibinigay sa akin.

"Really??" Sabi ko.

"Yeah. Sure."

"Hindi ka... Busy?"

"I'm not busy. So.. See ya!" Sabi n'ya.

She waved at me, and winked bago lumakad palayo.

Agad lumapit sa'kin sina Cliff.

"WOAH, DUDE!!! What just happened??" Tanong ni Cliff

Pinakita ko sa kanila ang number ni Eloise.

"Ah, iba na 'to! Iba ka na, man!" Biro ni William.

Matapos ang klase, agad akong umuwi para linisin ang bahay para masiguradong handa ang lahat para bukas. I made sure na nasa iisang box ang mga gamit ni lolo para walang mawala at madamage.

I went to the attic and saw the vault again. Napaisip naman ako; Why am I still keeping this?

Mkha naman wala na'ng silbi, and it consumes too much space.

Kaya napag desisyunan ko na tawagan ang agent namin.

"Hello?" Sagot ng agent.

"hello, ito po ba si Miss Andrea?" Tanong ko.

"Yes, who's this?"

"This is Shawn Perez. Grandson ni Michael Perez."

"Ah, yes. Yung Heir ng house? What can I do for you?"

"I was just wodering if you can help me out for something. May malaking gamit po kasi yung lolo ko and I think I don't need it. I want to put it away."

"What object, specifically?"

"A safety vault. Sira naman na yung lock n'ya and it's really big."

"Well, I can look for a buyer, if you want. Pero given the condition, maliit na halaga na lang aabutin n'yan, sir."

"It's okay. I just wanna get rid of it. Just keep me posted."

"Copy, sir."

Then I ended the call.

Kinabukasan, night of the party, everything's all set. tinulungan ako ni Ethan, William at Cliff para maset up ang party. By 7am, nagsimula nang dumating ang mga tao.

Hanggang sa naging crowded na, Hindi ko pa rin nakikita si Eloise.

Nakita ako ni Ethan na nakatayo sa corner habang nakatingin sa pintuan, hinihintay si ELoise.

"Bro, what's up?" -Ethan

"I think she's not gonna come." Sabi ko sabay yuko.

"Nah, pupunta 'yan! Ano ka ba." Sabi n'ya while tapping my back. Hanggang napalakas ang pag tapik n'ya sa likod.

"Ouch! What's wrong with you?"

Nilingon ko s'ya at nakitang naka nganga habang nakatingin sa pintuan.
