"Lorenzo! Huwag mo akong iwan, please!" Pag mamakaawa ko habang hawak ang kamay niya. "Don't leave me here! Wala akong kasama! At nag promise ka kay mommy."
Tinanggal niya ang kamay niya sa kamay ko at saka humarap saakin.
"You need to hang out with your friends, too." Sabi niya habang nakatitig sa mata ko. "Prom is not all about being with your partner, dancing and stuff like that! Kailangan mo ding makihalubilo sa friends mo. Talk about guys."
"Ayoko. Gusto ko ikaw lang kasama ko. Ikaw lang gusto kong kausap." I pouted.
Tumawa siya ng mahina at hinalikan ako sa noo. "Sinasabi mo lang yan kasi ayaw mong lokohin ka ng mga kaibigan mo."
"Eh bakit ikaw? Saan ka pupunta? Isasayaw lahat ng babae sa gabi?"
"Ganun na nga!"-Alex
"Lorenzo!" I stomped my feet.
"Masisira heels mo! Sige!" Hinawakan niya ako sa kamay. "Joke lang! I need to be with my friends din! Share mo naman ako, huwag selfish."
Hinampas ko siya sa braso. "Ayan! Kunwari ako ang kailangang makihalubilo, eh ikaw din naman pala! Gusto mo lang tumakas eh!"
"Haha! I'll ask you to dance with me pag third na, okay?"-Alex
"Ayokong makisayaw sa ibang lalake."
"Ayaw ko din namang mapunta ka sa iba. Tho, I want you to experience a normal prom. I want you to go out there and do high school stuffs."-Alex
I frowned. Tinanggal niya ang coat niya at saka ipinatong sa balikat ko. Mabilis niya akong hinalikan sa pisngi na nagpainis pa lalo saakin. Hindi ko na siya nilingon at galit na naglakad sa table nila Fille.
He called my name but I ignored him. So, this is his plan? To ask me to prom and after a dance, he'll leave me alone by myself? Psh. at some point I can see his point Pero since inis na inis ako, sasabihin ko nalang na hindi ko alam ang punto niya.
Tumigil ang tawanan nila Fille when I pulled a chair to sit on. I removed the coat and neatly fold it before putting it on my lap. They all watched me in awe.
"How's your first prom so far?"-Shiela
"Bummer."
"Anong bummer dun? Kayo kaya ang usap-usapan! Tapus sobrang perfect pa ng partner mo!"-Shiela
"Anong perfect dun?! Iniwan ako!"
Fills waged her point finger on my face. "He's doing you a favour." She smiled, "Im so happy that you're here."
"Yeah! Me, too! You're gorgeous."-Shiela
"Thank you." Nahihiya kong sabi at saka tumingin kay Ella. She was sipping on her glass of juice, obviously, ignoring me as the best she can do. "Ella! You're beautiful tonight."
"Papatawarin na sana kita kung walang tonight yang sinabi mo." Walang gana niyang sabi.
"You're beautiful." I said but the latter rolled her eyes. "Fille, oh!" Sumbong ko.
"Ella, can you not ruin Dennise's first prom?"-Fille
"She's the one who ruined mine!"-Ella
"Ella!"-Shiela
"What? Totoo naman ah? Anong sinabi niya? She's not fun of parties! She doesn't like to attend prom with Alexander, since ayaw niya naman kay Alex! What is she doing now?!"-Ella
Napatingin saamin ang mga taong nasa kabilang table. Ella was furious now, ako naman ay gulat na gulat sa inaakto niya. Hindi ko alam kung anong ginawa ko. What to do?
