*Phone rings*

"May tumatawag pa pala sa panahon ngayon," ang sabi ko sa sarili ko while chewing my bayabas. "Baka scam lang."

*Phone rings*

"Really?" I gave my phone the look but I still got up my bed and proceeded to take the noisy thing.

Ashley <3 calling...

Iniisip ko kung bakit tatawag sa akin si Ashley kasi nanay ko na lang ata ang natawag sa akin. At isa pa, pwede namang i-text na lang niya sa akin kung anuman yung sasabihin niya. There are two possible reasons for this: something needs to be done a.s.a.p. or aasarin niya ako over my loss doon sa Flappy Bird kahapon and I had to go to the reunion because of that. 

"What's up, biatch?" I greeted.

"Maka-biatch ka naman diyan," ang sagot niya. "May pupuntahan tayo."

"Saan na naman?"

"I'll be there in 30 minutes," she said as if she was delivering some good news. "Bye!"

Kahit kailan talaga unpredictable itong si Ashley --- bigla na lang siyang susulpot ng parang kabute; bigla ring mawawala ng wala sa timing. Siguro yung pupuntahan namin is mall na naman kasi mamaya na yung reunion kaya kailangan na niyang bumili ng bagong dress, makeup, heels atbp. Feeling ko may gusto siyang i-attract sa reunion, which is pretty normal kasi single siya and provided that ang dami niyang manliligaw back in high school. Kukulitin na naman niya ako kung anong mas bagay sa kanya. #GIRLS

Meanwhile, hindi ko pa alam kung anong isusuot ko, kung mag-aayos ba ako or magpapakita pa ako sa reunion. But a deal is a deal. Bwisit kasi yung ibon na 'yon. Kung nanalo lang ako, I need not worry about all these things.

Pagkatapos kung maglinis at magpalit ng damit, nag-Facebook muna ako. Then, I realized na hindi ko pa pala na-a-accept yung friend request ni Drex. I thought Ashley did kasi palagi naman niya akong pinangungunahan sa halos lahat ng bagay. Her sending messages to Drex using my account would be considerable, too. Naaalala ko nung kami pa ni Drex, palaging nakabantay sa akin si Ashley. Baka raw kasi kung anong katangahan ang magawa namin --- alam niyo na ;) BUUTTT, mabait at conservative ako, hindi katulad ng iniisip ni Ashley! Pero dati 'yon :P Medyo wild and free na ako ngayon kahit wish ko pa rin na si Drex ang only man na aking hahalikan at yayakapin; meh,  wtf am I thinking? :3

Anyways, let's go back to the story. So, I accepted his request. Friends na kami sa Facebook, like, woah, we were once head-over-heels in love with each other tapos bagsak sa friends on Facebook ang status natin ngayon? LOL talaga. 

OOPS, ano 'to?

Drex sent you a message.

OMFG, nanlaki yung mga mata ko at ang lakas pati ng tibok ng puso ko!!! Parang yung first time na umamin siya sa akin na gusto niya akong ligawan, like, OMFG. Panaginip ba lahat ng ito?!?!?!

"Hi, Ia (ee-ya) :)" ang bati niya sa akin. "Salamat at in-accept mo rin, akala ko you ignored me na :("

"Ia" is a nickname specially made by him kasi mas bagay daw sa cute face ko 'yon :')

Pakshet, bakit ayaw tumigil ng dibdib ko sa pagthe-threadmill?!?!?!

Juskels, Cynthia, 'wag mong sabihing kinikilig ka! Iniwan ka ng gagong 'yan!!!

Just right before I send my greetings, he double-texted. He said, "See ya tonight? :)"

Bakit naman kaya tatawagin pa rin niya akong "Ia"? Does he still find me cute? Check ko nga yung DP ko, hahahaha.

Suddenly, dumating si Ashley --- wala talaga sa timing ang babaeng 'to! ARGH!!!

"ASH!" I hid my phone behind me for I dunno what reason. "Nandiyan ka na pala; hindi ka man lang kumatok."

My bestfriend stood there in a very elegant, black dress that reached her knees. Her face was lightly covered with sweet makeup; and damn, those shiny, circular earrings are killers. It seems like she's done her shopping without me. OUCH.

Umikot si Ashley, feeling prinsesa at tinanong ako, "What do you think?"

"'Yan ba ang ipinunta mo dito?" medyo hard yung pagkasabi ko. "Para ipamukha sa akin na you can do anything in 4 hours?'

"Cyn naman," paliwanag niya. "Nandito ako for you --- ako ang mag-aayos sa'yo for tonight's reunion."

"Seryoso ka?" I raised an eyebrow. "Hindi mo na kailangang mag-abala."

I turned around, which was rude. Idgaf, tho. Nakaka-insulto kasi eh. Bigla na lang siyang magpapakita sa bahay tapos ang ganda-ganda pa ng suot niya habang ako, clueless. Respeto naman sa hindi kagandahan. XD

"I know exactly what you're thinking," she held my hands as she said these 'comforting' words. "But gagawin ko 'to para sa'yo, para sa muli niyong pagkikita ni Drex."

Yup, I overacted a little bit but, GOD, thank you for Ashley --- I love her 5ever.

"Sorry," I smiled.

Ashley didn't say anything; instead, she stood up and had the materials ready.
