"Shit, Al. Ang sikip." Daing ni Agatha.

Nilingon ko siya habang inaayos niya ang tube dress na pinahiram ko sa kanya. Kumunot ang noo ko habang pinapanuod siyang inaayos 'yon.

Binalikan ko siya at sumabay sakanya habang naglalakad. Nasa likuran kami ng aming mga pinsan habang tinatahak namin ang party.

"What are you doing?" I hissed.

"Damn, my boobs doesn't fit here." Reklamo niya.

Pilit niyang tinataas ang upper part ng dress at hindi ko alam kung matatawa ba ako o mahihiya dahil sa ginagawa niya.

We are walking down the stairs for people's sake! Nasa baba lamang ang mga bisita nila daddy! The funny thing is, birthday ni lola pero ang mga bisita ay sigurado akong hindi naman talaga niya kilala.

Politicians and businessmen.

Napailing nalamang ako at pinagmasdan ang mga bisita. Pinadaan ko ang aking mga mata sa bawat bisita na naroon, expecting to see middle-aged men and women but I suddenly stopped breathing for a second.

Hindi ko mapigilan na mapangiwi ng may mamukhaan akong mga lalaking pumasok.

Three young men entered..

"I thought he hates us?" Taas kilay kong wika.

"Huh?" Inosenteng tanong ni Agatha.

Hindi ko inalis ang tingin ko sa tatlong lalaking pumasok. They stopped at the middle, parang nakikiramdam din sa buong party. Ramdam kong nakita na rin ni Agatha ang tinutukoy ko dahil kusa siyang tumigil. I can't help but to stop walking too.

Of course we know them.

I can still remember how the guy at the center, Evander Claveria, hates us. Hindi ko man narinig ang buong usapan kanina dahil masyado akong pre-occupied sa mayabang guy na sumira ng araw ko, still I heard the whole story from Agatha. Detailed, with emotions, walang labis at walang kulang and I can say that I'm so pissed because of them.

I can't believe that he hates us! With no grounds or what so ever. To make the night worse, the guy on Claveria's left is no other than the mayabang guy himself.

Bahagya akong napabuga ng hangin.

His playful smile is so evident at this moment. Parang tuwang tuwa siya sa nakikita niya. Evander is so serious while mayabang guy seems so amuse with everything. They are so prepared for this and I assume that they are invited.

From mayabang guy's eyes, I can see that he is so happy to be in here. His eyes were glowing like the light from the Sun. He slightly fixed his dark blue long sleeves..

Wait.

Stop looking Alice. He already destroyed your day, don't make him destroy your night.

"Are you even listening to me, Alice?" I can hear irritation from Agatha's voice.

Binaling ko ang tingin ko sakanya.

"What?" 

I blinked a few times and smiled a little because I'm guilty of not listening.

See? That mayabang guy, got my attention again and I don't see any good thing about it!

"Nevermind. I was asking why are they here but I guess you're too pre-occupied because of.."

Nanliit ang mga mata ni Agatha na para bang inaakusahan niya ako sa isang bagay na hindi ko naman alam kung pagkakamali ba o hindi. Bumaling muli ang tingin niya sa mga lalaking 'yon at kusang sumunod ang mga mata ko. I can that they're enjoying now..
