"Mom! I'm heading out! I'll be back later. Love you!" Inaayos ko yung shoulder bag na gamit ko before I leaned out and gave Mom a kiss on the cheek.
"Enjoy the last day of your vacation, princess."
"Sure, Mom! Gotta go!" And I head on out to the mall as I'm going to meet up with my sissies. Sana lang they're there na so that maaga kaming makapag-simula.
Oh, wait, you do not know me yet, do you? Well, ladies and gentlemen of this wonderful world, let me introduce myself. I am Madison Alexis Esguerra. You can call me anything you like but not yours or mine as I am single since birth which is probably because I'm fabulously gay. But I think it's more because of my age which is just 17, too young for that love crap. If it isn't obvious, I'm maarte but to be fair, I am nice! Well, I am nice if we became friends but not really to strangers and passing faces. Oh and by tomorrow, I am now a 4th year student. Senior! Graduating na ko! Saya!
At habang pinakikilala ko ang sarili ko sa inyo ay nakarating na ako sa mall (Bilis 'no? Over speeding driver namin eh. Hahaha!) I went to Starbucks as that is our meeting place and to my surprise, wala pa sila!! Argh. Damn those girls! They'll make me wait nanaman for like eternity. Poor me!
"Nasaan na kayo?! I've been here for like an hour already!" I sent that message to my oh so fab friends kahit na kararating ko lang. I'm pressuring them dahil ayaw ko kasi maghintay ng matagal eh. Boring kaya to wait for people, 'di ba? You don't know how long they'll take.
Fortunately, after a few moments, I saw Trisha, one of my sissies. She looked like she rushed to get here as her hair was not perfectly done like it usually is.
"An hour pa daw. Arte mo! If I know, nauna ka lang ng 10 minutes sa akin. Baklang 'to," Trisha said after kissing me on the cheek.
"Shut up na lang and have a seat, girl. You know naman kasi na ayokong naghihintay 'di ba? and why were you late, anyway?" I asked her dahil siya lagi nauuna sa aming tatlo when we meet up. It's so unlike Trisha to be late for a meet up.
"Sorry na but I was drooling kasi over Zayn Malik beks. He's so hot and yummy! OMG! Kaya ayun, hindi ko napansin ang oras." Kaya pala. Umatake nanaman ang pagiging Directioner nya kaya nalate. Well, I'll take that as a valid excuse because I agree na Zayn is just a dreamboat!
"Fine but in return, share mo sa akin yung pictures nya ha? You know we share the same ship!" You could see hearts in my eyes when I think of all the gorgeousness Zayn Malik carried. Nakapanghihina!
"And who are we talking about that is yummy?" And she's consistent to arriving late, people. Hindi ko napigilang umikot yung mata ko nung nag-beso sa amin si Nich because anong oras nanaman siya inabot. Akala mo napakabusy na tao kung makapagpahantay ng iba. Kakaloka.
"Nothing that matters, Nich." simpleng sagot ni Trish. We didn't bother to tell her na it's Zayn because she didn't like the guy and aawayin niya lang kami for being a fan so Trish just did the right thing. "So Alex, aside from buying our stuff for school, ano pang agenda natin?"
"Mom asked the admin of our new school to place us sa star section. And the school agreed." My voice lowered upon telling the girls of the reason why we met up.
"What?!" They both said in unison.
I took a sip of the sitting caramel macchiato on our table before answering. "You heard it right girls. Baka daw kasi makatulong sa akin and to my studies yung maraming matatalino na nakapaligid."
You see guys, hindi kasi ako ganoon kagaling sa academics, particularly math and science. I sweat cold upon seeing formulas, equations, and problems kaya pasang awa lagi yung grades ko sa mga iyon. But to be fair, I try my hardest naman na pumasa talaga kaya lang, ayaw talaga eh. What I am trying to do is probably wrong kaya hindi nagwowork. Ewan ko ba kung anong meron yung utak ko at puro kaartehan ang inuuna than what's more worthy. Hayy
