Dream Guy

23rd

Vallerie's POV:

"Hiiii bitches I'm hereeeee" sabi ni Carrie habang pumapasok. Nakita kong nawala ang ngiti ni Angel pero she tried putting it back on again. Si Madison naman, di na nag-effort at naka-simangot na agad.

"Hi Rie" bati ni Zeke. Kenneth ignored her. Carrie's smiling but her smile faded nang makita niya ko. She put it back on though, it's a fake one.

"Oh hi Vie! We meet again!" She said enthusiastically but more like sarcastically.

"Hi, Carrie" bati ko din sakanya.

Tumabi siya kay YZ. A.k.a. boyfriend ko. A.k.a. ex niya.

Pasalamat lang talaga ang earth na kalmado akong tao.

"So, bakit ka nandito?" Carrie asked in a kunwari-masaya-voice-but-in-reality-pissed-voice.

"You'll know" sagot ni YZ. Carrie looked irritated. Does she really not know? "Bakit, para sa PC nanaman ba?" Carrie asked sarcastically.

Girl, oo. Oo nandito ako sa meet up ng friends ng boyfriend ko kasi magme-meet kami for PC. May utak ka pa ba?

Kalma, Vie.

"No" sagot ni YZ. Tahimik lang akong naka-upo, watching as Zeke looks through movies sa TV.

"Baby, okay ka lang?" Bulong sakin ni YZ. Ugh, I hate it when he whispers in my ear, yung breath niya kasi nakaka-kiliti.

"Yes, I'm fine" sagot ko. He held my hand and squeezed.

And then biglang tumili si Carrie.

"Kayo na?!" Sigaw niya at napatayo pa. Oo tangina hindi ka makapaniwala? Gusto mo pagawa ako couple shirt namin ni YZ ha?

Ha?

Sabihin mo lang.

Abnormal ka, Vie? Naririnig ka ba niya ha? Kung gusto mong sumagot siya, sabihin mo ng malakas. Wala weak ka pala eh.

Shut up.

"Oo" sabi ni YZ saka inalis ang pagka-hawak niya sa kamay ko. He then wrapped his right arm sakin.

"Wow" sabi ni Carrie and laughed like she can't believe it. "My god kailan pa?" Tanong ni Carrie.

"Last week" sagot ni YZ. It's weird to know friends sila ng ex niya and that friend of his isn't ideal.

Ugh, have trust on your boyfriend, Vie.

"Congrats!" Sabi ni Carrie na obviously labas sa ilong.

"Thanks" sagot din ni YZ and smiled.

***Later***

"Gagawa ako coffee. Sino gusto?" Tanong ni Angel. Lahat nag-sabi ng "ako" except for Carrie saying ayaw daw niya ng instant coffee. Arte.

"Tulungan na kita, Angel" pag-volunteer ko. "Nooooo di ka pwede umalis sa tabi ko" sabi ni YZ.

"Sus kanina pa kita kasama" sabi ko and rolled my eyes. He pouted pero wala na siyang magagawa, so he nodded.

Sumunod na ko kay Angel sa kusina. Nagpapainit na siya ng tubig.

"Ang sweet niyo ni YZ ahh" sabi ni Angel while busily getting mugs from the cabinet. "Kayo din naman ni Renz eh" sagot ko.

"Well, you're right" sabi niya, smiling. I really admire how she looks so innocent and kind.

"Can I be honest with you?" She asked randomly. I looked at her and nodded. "Sure, no problem" sabi ko.

"I really think Carrie's gonna find a way to break your relationship with YZ" sabi niya with worried eyes. "Paano mo naman naisip yan?" I asked back while putting a coffee sachet to one of the mugs.

"Ganyan yan siya. Before, nung barkada lang sina Renz, YZ, Zeke, saka Ken nung high school, nakita sila ni Carrie. Nakipag-friends siya sakanila. Ang alam ko each of them didn't want to, pero mabait si Renz so he decided to agree"

"Since nung naging friends sila at sumusulpot lagi si Carrie sa galaan nila, Carrie felt like sakanya nagbebelong ang apat. She likes each of them, but she likes YZ the most"

"Dati, nung bago palang kami ni Renz, maraming times na triny niya kaming paghiwalayin ni Renz. It didn't work, so she gave up. Second si Ken saka Madi. Ang alam ko din, there were lots of times muntikan na sila mag-break. And Carrie's behind it all"

"Teka, if she's trying to get each of them apart, bakit winewelcome parin nila si Carrie?" I asked. "Simple. Bait-baitan siya sa harap ng mga lalaki. I tried telling Renz, kinalabasan nag-away pa kami dahil dun. Ang alam ko din, Madi tried telling Ken, but Ken said he didn't care as long as sila parin ni Madi"

Wow. Angel knows a lot.

"Pero, paano mo nalalaman 'tong lahat?" I asked.

"I used to have a huge crush kay Renz. I liked him so much, updated ako sa lahat na related siya. And of course, don't I look like I'm the the type of person to know a lot of things?" She asked and wiggled her eyebrows.

I laughed a little, "Yeah you're right"
