"Bakit mo naman pinaalis si bagets sana naman pinaupo mo muna dito o!"

"Oo nga para makilatis naman natin!"

"Huwag na, nakita nyo naman masyadong mukhang baby face. Tsaka mga ganyang porma mga pa fall at player mga ganyan. I'm too old for that stuff."  Dei replies.

"Ayan na naman tayo sa too old. Hoy babae, 28 ka lang. Napakarami mo pang dapat maranasan kesa sa pagtuturo at pag-aaral."

"Oo nga. Live a little. And besides, si bagets mukha namang of legal age na yan."

"Oo, nakita nyo ba, napaka... mature na ng katawan, fully developed!"

All three of her friends look at RJ's direction at the same time.

"Yan sige pahalata pa kayo para kayong mga ano e."

"Dei, kung ayaw mo yan akin na lang." Paolo waves his fingers to RJ.

"Anong iyo na lang eh kanina pa tingin ng tingin dito kay Dei o parang mababali na ang leeg kakalingon."

"Palapitin na nga natin. Psst. Huy! Oo ikaw!" Cai calls RJ over.

RJ immediately stands up and goes to them.

"Upo ka naman. Ayan dyan humila ka na lang ng upuan tabihan mo si Dei."

"Anong pangalan mo?"

"I'm RJ."

"Uy Inglesero. So what brings you here Mr. RJ?" Cai asks.

Her eyes. He thought.

RJ can't stop staring at Dei. She, on the other hand, finds him amusing.

"Wala naman. Just celebrating with my friends."

"Uy! Sakto kami rin! What are you celebrating?"

"Ah. Birthday kasi nung barkada ko." RJ lied. He doesn't want to let her know he's a 23-year-old college student. 

Baka lalo lang akong ayawan nito.

"Ay tawagin mo friends mo at mag celebrate tayo together!"

RJ calls his friends over and introduces them to the girls.

"This is Tuns. Short for Anthony. Ito naman si Je. Short for Jejemon."

The girls laughed and RJ was all grin.

Kahit yung tawa nya maganda.

"Ha-ha. Nagjojoke itong kaibigan ko di naman birthday. Jerald. Ako si Jerald. Nice to meet you."

Je shakes hands with everyone.

"So sino sa inyo may birthday?" Dei asks

"Ito si Tuns. Birthday na nya sa makalawa."

"Birthday ko?" Tuns looks at RJ all puzzled

"Oo wag ka nang magulo." RJ whispers.

"Ah oo nga birthday ko. Advance."

"Ay wow magkalapit pala tayo ng birthday, ako naman bukas." Dei says.

"Ah talaga? Tara order pa tayo, double celebration!" RJ raises his hand to call the waiter. "Chief! Cuervo, 2 bottles na."

"Ay woooow galante si bagets!"

The waiter brings their bottle right away, and fills each shot glass.

"Cheers! Happy Birthday!" they all took their shots.

"Isa paaaa!"

"Nagmamadali ba kayo? Hinay hinay lang o!"

But Je already refills their glasses, and her friends were all to willing to empty them.
