Chapter 1.

KRYSTAL'S POV

So how can I ever try to 

be better? 

Nobody ever lets me in 

I can still see you, this ain't 

the best view 

On the outside looking in 

I've been a lot of lonely 

places 

I've never been on the 

outside

I opened my eyes as I finished singing the song. Applauses and cheers were everywhere.

I felt my eyes slightly squinted when I noticed the two empty seats in the front. But I don't have the time to get mad so I smiled wonderfully at the audience and bowed.

Sinalubong agad ako nila Nikki sa backstage ng may ngiti sa mga labi.

"You are so magaling!" Napapatiling sabi ni Nikki.

"Ano pa bang aasahan natin kay Krystal? Eh halos saluhin na niya lahat ng biyaya ni Lord! Right, girls?" Ngingiti-ngiting wika ni Sab.

"Yeah, right. Wala nga siyang tinira para sa'kin eh." Natawa sila sa sinabi ni Jane.

Well? They're my best of friends, obviously. They also have different personalities. Isang bagay lang naman ang nasisiguro kong pinagkasunduan naming apat, at iyon ang pagkakaibigan namin. :)

"C'mon, guys. Let's celebrate!" Sabay na sabi ni Sab at Nikki.

"Sure!"

We went straightly to the Bar we used to go whenever we're having a celebration. Most of the guys were looking at us but I didn't look back at them. Why would I? Tss. Just a waste of time.

Nikki, and Sab were having fun at the dance floor while Jane and I were just watching how they dance with their random partners. Nikki and Sab may be wild but I know they're just playing around. While Jane? She's like me. I don't like flirting.

We're good girls, you know. Well, hindi ko naman sinasabing bad sina Sab. Ay, basta. 'Yun na 'yun.

"Krys, can I borrow your phone?" Jane suddenly asked.

Tumango naman ako at kukunin ko na sana yung bag ko kaso..

"Where's my bag?" nagtatakang tanong ko sa kanya.

Kumunot ang noo nito, "Hawak mo yun kanina, di ba? Baka naiwan mo sa kotse."

"Eehh.. Sya, titingnan ko kung nandun."

"Kailangan mo ng kasama?"

Umiling lang ako bago tumayo at naglakad palabas sa Bar.

Lakad lang ako ng lakad nang may dalawang lalaking humarang sa'kin. Tinaasan ko lang sila ng kilay at nag-excuse pero bigla akong hinawakan ng isa sa kanila sa braso. Ito ang ayoko dito eh.

"Miss, gusto mo bang sumama sa amin? Sandali lang naman eh."

Eww. "And what if I won't?"

"Mapipilit--" hindi na niya natapos ang sasabihin niya dahil sinipa ko siya sa tiyan at dali-daling tumakbo palayo.

The fudge! Nakasuot pa naman ako ng high heels! Siguradong sasakit mamaya ng bongga ang mga paa ko.

"Hoy! Bumalik ka dito!"

Waaaaaah! Ang bilis nila! Ano ng gagawin ko? Ayokong ma-double dead ang katawan ko!

Lumiko ako pakanan kahit di ko alam kung anong daan ito. Desperada na akong makatakas.
