Patrice's P.O.V
"Ah, damn!!" Sigaw ko nang matalo na naman ako.
"Pwede bah?? Laro lang yan, oh. Ingay mo." Cryz frustratedly screamed at me. Nagising ko ata siya sa "beauty sleep" niya.
"Sorry." I muttered.
Ano pa bang pwede kong gawin?? What else is there to do than to sit here and play this stupid phone game??
"Mabuti pa, kumain ka nalang." Biglang sulpot ni Marielle galing C.R
"Ah! Sige." Saad ko sabay labas ng walang paalam. No need, alam naman nila kung saan ako pupunta, eh.

"Ah, sh*t." I muttered when someone accidentally stepped over my feet.
"Sorry." Saad ng lalaking nakaapak ng paa ko.
"It's fine." I said through gritted teeth.
Ang sakeeet!! Ang bigat pa naman ng paa niya. Nak ng asong gala naman, oh!!
I just watched him walk away from me. For some reason, his face seems familiar. And for some reasons, it aches my heart, seeing him walk further away from me.
"Patty?" Napalingon ako sa babaeng tumawag ng pangalan ko. Wheez, hindi ko man lang namalayan, sikat na pala ako.
"Uh, you are?" I asked her, having not even the slightest idea who she was.
"Patty, it's me, Eim. Eimear Amelia. Remember?" She smiled at me.
'Eimear Amelia?? Eh?!'
"Eimear Amelia Baker?? It's you!! That stupid kid from before, right?" Biglang sigaw ko nang maalala ko kung sino siya.
Well, sa huling beses na nagkita kami, ibang-iba na ang mukha niya. Pumayat siya, tumangkad, at aba- gumanda siya. In fairness, ah??
"Hoy!! Grabe ka!! Ilang years na ba mula nun?? 2?? 3?? Stupid parin tawag mo sakin??" Tumatawang tanong niya.
I flinched at her behavior. It hasn't changed a bit.
"Ah!! Una na 'ko, ah?? Yung boyfriend ko kasi, nagtatampo sakin." Paalam niya sakin.
Without a word, I nodded and watched her walk away too.
Di kaya yung lalaking nakaapak sa paa ko ang boyfriend niya?? Taray, ah!! Mukhang pogi, eh.
"Patrice!" Narinig kong tawag sakin ni Ella. Yes. Alam kong si Ella yun. Naman!! Araw-araw na naglilitanya yan, eh. Of course, I'll be able to recognize her voice.
"Oh?" Tanong ko nang makalapit ako sa kanya.
"Anong gusto mong bilhin? I'll buy it for you para naman isang gora nalang." She offered. I nodded and handed her 200 pesos.
"Umm, buy me 5 Goya, a mogu-mogu, and an ice cream." I smiled at her.
Tumango naman siya at dumiretso sa isang linya ng mga babae.
Umupo ako sa isa sa mga upuan ng bakanteng table.
"Patty,"
Is it just me or talagang araw ng pangalan ko ngayon??
"Oh?" Tanong ko pagkalingon ko sa tumawag ng pangalan ko.
Turned out, it was just Eimear and the one who stepped on my foot earlier.

Teen Fiction"We're together. And we'll never be apart." He said with reassurance. Yet, he left. I made the story with my own hands and imagination. Anything similar on the story is simply a coincidence.
