Chapter 5:
Iam wearing my pink star-printed short shorts and white spaghetti tops nang bumaba ako mula sa second floor. I got an early call from Cassie telling me to get up and prep 'coz they're on their way here.
What was that? Gooodness, its just freaking 2am, tulog pa ang buong sangkatauhan. What's with them? Bakit napakaaga? Ganun ka-urgent at hindi pwedeng maghintay ng pagsikat ng araw?
To think na ilang oras palang ang tulog ko, I'm super duper mega over dead tired. Right after my pictorial yesterday, I dropped by on their place before heading home. Gusto kasi nya akong makita and she requested for a triple layered chocolatte cake as well na pinagbigyan ko naman. At kailan pa sya nahilig dun, as far as a remember, she's not into sweets. Ugh, wtvr! Maybe taste-changed?
I didn't even bother to comb my hair, I simply tied it up in a messy bun. May mga hibla pa ngang nalaglag sa gilid pero pinabayaan ko nalang. I wear no make up, it's just Cassie anyway, it doesn't matter if she'll see me this way.
Nagmumuni-muni ako habang bumababa ng hagdan nang makita ko sila. Si Cassie, si Carl, at si.. Haa??
Napaawang ang bibig ko sa gulat, si Mike? Am I hallucinating? Am I dreaming? I tried to widened my eyes para masiguradong sya nga. Ilang kurap ang ginawa ko para mapagtanto-tantong sya talaga. Sheeet sya nga! I thought of going up again, I need to change. I need to wear make up. Hitsura ko!!! Tatalikod na sana ako pabalik nang may biglang magsalita mula sa baba.
"Anniee!" si Cassie. Lumakad sya paakyat at syempre wala na akong ibang choice kundi tuluyang bumaba para salubungin siya.
"What's that you're wearing?" she asked as she looked at me from head to toe.
"Why?" I asked with one of my eyebrows raised. Anong mali sa suot ko? Naka-pantulog ako malamang, bedtime pa kaya. Wala silang relo?
She rolled her eyes as she held my arms. "We're gonna go out of town." she announced before we turned to Carl and Mike downstairs.
Saglit na nawala ako sa sariling katinuan nang makita ko ang maliit at pigil na ngiti ni Mike. Sht that smile!
"W-whaaat?" I stupidly asked wanting to confirm if I heard it right. Instant out of town? As in ngayon na ngayon na?
"Sissyy.." I said but she abruptly cut me off.
"Tara na, I'll help you pack." she insisted pulling me upstairs.
"Please?" she pleaded. She used her famous puppy-eyes-technique and I just shrugged my shoulders off totally accepting my defeat.
I walked towards my bathroom to have myself prep. Woaah, ikaw na magkaroon ng kaibigang ganito. Juice colored. Alam kong kahit anong pagtanggi ang gawin ko, waah effect.
I left her packing my stuffs. I know she knows what and where my things are. Siya na ang mag-empake, tutal siya naman ang humila sakin sa out of town na ito.
I stopped and looked at my reflection on the mirror.
"Maganda naman ako even without make up." Bumaling ako sa kaliwa tapos sa kanan, checking if there's any blemish. Good, there's none. Natural na pinkish ang kutis at labi ko dahil sa lahing British ni daddy. Hindi naman ako mukhang haggard or what. In fact, I'm looking fresh pa nga.
After almost half an hour, I stormed out of the bathroom and I saw Cassie laying comfortably on my bed. She's smiling at me.
"What should I wear? Where are we going?"
