Alice' POV

Hi guys I'm Alice Lee, Sofia's best friend. Anyway, di niyo ako binibigyan ng point of view dito sa story ah! Haha! Speaking of story, Daze and Sofia's story has begun. Nalaman na nila ang totoo sa isa't isa. Sila pala yung dating magkabarkada simula bata pa Lang? Wow. Team Saze sila! Although medyo ship ko ang Team SoM pero whatever. Sila ang tinadhana eh. Jowk! Sabi nila they're just friends so not much is happening.

Anyway, I'm in a phone call with the one and only Sofia Taylor..

"So..saan nga pala kayo pupunta ni Daze?" Tanong ko.

[ He said it should not gonna be that expensive. Surely it's Jollibee, McDonalds or KFC.]

I sighed. Umaandar na naman ang pagiging judgemental ni Sofia towards the broke people but I can't lie, Wala akong maisip na restaurant na magugustuhan ng broke people. Except the ones that they can afford like Jollibee and those stuff.

"Sige, tanungin mo na lang si Daze."

[ Saan ba tayo kakain?] Narinig kong tanong niya sa kabilang linya. [ Jollibee / Oh,Alice. Alam mo na!]

"Yup. Wag na kayo gagala. Remember your model shoot this afternoon. Paka mahuli ka pa. Byeee!"

I heard her sighed. [ Yeah yeah. Who are you? My mother? Bahala ka na dyan ah? Bye!]

Then I ended the call.

Naglakad lakad muna ako dito sa campus since wala naman kwming classes since it's Sunday pero pwede pa naman pumasok sa campus for fun on weekends.

Nakarating ako sa hall, suddenly, I heard some voices sa office. Oh shit.

"Yes, Mrs Taylor. Thank you so much for your paint products." Pasasalamat ng Isa sa mga teacher,.

Nakita ko silang lumabas kaya nagtago ako sa isang pintuan.

"You're welcome rin. Kung may ibang Products pa kayong kailan, contact me. You know naman that me and my husband own one of the biggest Products company, okay?" Sabi naman ni Tita Sage..Mommy ni Sofia.

"Of course naman. Sige, Mauna ka na sa pupuntahan mo. I'll be giving the paint to our workers."

Umalis na si Tita Sage but what made me panic, is she walking towards my direction. Oh no. Kung nakita niya ako, siguradong tatanungin niya kung nasan si Sofia and I can't let that happen or I'm gonna be doomed, also Sofia and Daze.

I walked the other direction, casually. Para di ako mahalata.

"Alice!"

Oh shit. This is what I'm talking about..

"Y-Yes po, Tita S-Sage?" I looked around to face her.

"Bakit ka nauutal? By the way, nasan nga pala si Sofia? Sasamahan ko Kasi siya sa shoot niya eh."

I looked around, not knowing what to answer. If I tell a lie, I may look suspicious. Hindi ako magaling magsinungaling noh! Kung totoo naman, I'll be doomed.

"Alice.. I know you're thinking of something. Where is Sofia? Don't lie to me."

I gulped. I should tell the truth, probably.

Sofia's POV

Tapos na kami kumain ng chicken joy so we're just over here, drinking some ice tea.

"Ano, masarap ba?" Tanong ni Daze.

"Yup. It's simple but it really catches my taste buds, Kung Alam mo ang ibig Kong sabihin."

He chuckled. Haha. I bet he doesn't understand me. " Haha. Ayan ka na naman sa English English mo. Alam mo naman na hindi ako nakakaintindi ng straight english eh."

I made a piece sign by holding up my two fingers. "Sorry hehe."

I took another sip of my ice tea pero wala Kong natikman. I looked at my glass at nakitang Wala na itong laman, but ice. Ugh. I guess I'm done with my iced tea.

"I'm done with my iced tea." Sabi ko at inusog Ito palayo sakin.

"Gusto mo pa isa?" Alok ni Daze.

I touched my stomach. Medyo busog na ako and it's okay. "No thanks. I'm full anyway."

Nakita ko siyang tumayo na and carried both of our bags. His backpack on his back, while my backpack is on his front.

"Alis na tayo,Sofia. Diba may shoot ka pa?"

I glared at him because of what he said. Sinabi ko na nga sa kanya na it's a secret career eh! "Shoot?" I act like di ko alam kung anong pinagsasabi niya.

"Ay hehe. I mean, may pupuntahan ka. Sige na."

We were just laughing when....

"Sofia Taylor!"

"M-Mom--Shit!" I cursed as she pulls my hair and drags me out of the Jollibee restaurant harshly.

Maraming customers ang nakatingin but didn't budge. We harshly arrived outside the restaurant.

"What the heck,Mom? What are you doing here?"

There's her face again. That fierce and strict kind. "I talked to Alice. I told her to tell the truth. So, who are you with?"

I looked back to see Daze at nakita ko siyang parating dito sa exit. "A friend of mine."

I looked back again pero nagulat when she harshly pulled my hair again into the car.

~~~

We arrived at our house and it's a relief since I'm tired of her damn voice and bullsh*t.

"Sofia Taylor. First, I saw you with a boy in a cheap restaurant. Second, you're shots are bad! You don't even have the fahion sense today!"

Ugh. "Mom, he's just a friend of mine! My shots? Who cares about that fvcking model shoot? I just don't feel like it because of YOU."

SLAP!

I looked at her shocked. Never pa ako sinampal ni Mommy on my face. I experienced some shouting but a slap is more.

"Friends? I told you. Choose your friends,Sofia. I like Alice, and nobody else."

I clenched my fist to hide my anger. "Damn! Can't I have a new life WITHOUT YOUR OPINIONS?! I'm stuck in hell of your strictness. How am I supposed to have a family if I don't have a boyfriend? The hell,Mom. Sorry. I'm still not into boyfriends but what the hell.. Even friends?! Wow."

She slapped me again. "Friends? Not acceptable. I'm your mom and I have rights to tell you what to do."

"Not acceptable? Why are you so mad at people? I need friends in my life. Do you even know what the word FRIEND is?"

She slapped me again for the 3rd time. "Of course I do. What am I for you? Dumb?"

"Yeah,Mom. Yup."

"Go to your room now."

I walked away but stopped for a moment.

"You don't even have friends. Don't pass your past to my future. I can do anything I want. If I will go to New York, I'll go there."

That's the last thing I said then I went up to my room

Damn.. today is a crazy one.. I just caught in a simple action.
