BRAD'S P.O.V.

"Pare, ba't parang galit ka?" tanong ni Patrick.

"Hindi, sakit lang ulo ko," I lied.

Ever since sinigawan ako ni Kee 'nung Saturday hindi ko na alam anong gagawin ko. Oo, aminin ko, gusto ko siya pero ba't kahit anong gawin ko nagagalit lang siya? Ano? Allergic ba siya sa 'kin?

Kaya susuko na ako. Ayaw ko kasi ma hopelessly inlove, ang sakit pala. Pero kapag nakikita ko siya, my heart skips a beat. 'Di ko alam litong-lito ako.

"Don't tell me, iniisip mo pa rin si Kee?" tanong ni Patrick.

"Did you saw her? Pula ang right cheek niya. Sinampal ni Ylis," sagot ko.

Nakita ko kasi anong nangyari sa kanila ni Ylis kanina. Lalapit sana ako pero na unahan ako ni River. Boshet.

"And why do you care?" sabi ni Patrick.

"I don't," I huffed.

"Ha, that's what he said," sabi niya at nag text sa girlfriend niya.

Si patrick, ito yung pinaka mature sa aming 3, mag oone year na sila sa girlfriend niya.At ito naman si Mike, ang pinakang playboy makilala mo. Tignan mo ngayon nag mamake-out sa babaeng hindi naman kilala.

"Bro tignan mo oh," sabi ni Patrick. He pointed at River and Kee laughing, akbay2. They look happy together. I clenched my fists then turned my back and went inside my car.

"Let's go," sabi ko.

"Asan tayo?" tanong ni Mike ng tinigil niya ang paghahalik sa babae.

"As usual, sa bar."

KEESHIA'S P.O.V.

"Dad, we're here," sabi ko pagpasok namin sa bahay.

"Oh, good. Feel free to sit,"

Umupo silang Jas at River sa malaking sofa namin at ako sa single na sofa para mag harap kami ni Dad.

"Why do you want to talk to US?" sabi ko, emphasizing 'us' kasi pwede naman ako lang. Bakit sila is it even necessary?

"We just want to meet Keeshia's friends personally," sabi ni Star pagbaba niya at tumabi kang daddy tapos hawak2 ang shoulders at braso ni Daddy. Landi ah. I gave her a death glare.

"Oh, uhm. I'm Jasmin Guittoti and this is my cousin River Guittoti," sabi ni Jas.

"Hello po," sagot ni River

"Ano naman ang course niyo iha at iho?" tanong ni daddy.

"HRM po si Jasmin habang engineering po ako. Nag meet po kaming 3 nung 3rd year pa kami," sabi ni River

"Ahh I can see you have good friends here Mikael," sabi Daddy. At napatawa si Jasmine at River, nakakatawa talaga kasi sa amin kapag tinatawag ang 2nd name namin. Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero parang baliw na ata kami.

"Ah yes, her real name is Keeshia Mikael. hahaha, her mom named her like that at first I thought it was funny but-" sabi ni Star but I cut her off. Epal ah.

"and so? They know my real name is Keeshia Mikael and my PARENTS gave that name to me. Stop acting like you know me," I said. "it's not even funny. My name is unique not like star. And yeah, bakit ba star ang pangalan mo? You even don't give light to our life, you darken it."

Na speechless siya sa sinabi ko. HA Serves her right! At si Jas makikita mong nag eeffort para hindi ipa labas ang tawa niya at si River nag grin.

"So, where do your parents work?" tanong ni daddy. I just smirked.

"Ah, my dad and his dad owns the bank," sabi ni Jas.

"Ah hahaha and I thought it was a coincidence. You two being Guittoti and the bank named Guittoti," my dad laughed. "So it's a family business?" my dad asked.

"Opo," sagot ni River

Time passed by at nag usap lng kami. Pag uwi nila sabi na ni Dad na mabait naman at kabubuti sa akin silang Jas at River. Wag ko daw sila sayangan dahil minsan ka lang makakita ng mga anak milyonaryo na mabait.
