Invitation
"Happy birthday...to you! Make a wish Mandy."
I closed my eyes as I made a wish, and blew the candle. "Thank you, guys! I almost forgot my birthday."
"Eh paano ba naman, masyado ka nagpapaka-stress sa work and studies. Kaya ngayon, get up, 'cause we are going to have a girls' night out!" Si Flyn na mas excited pa sa akin.
"Oo, Mandy. Kaya maligo ka na agad kasi magsho-shopping pa tayo!" Lei added and just gave me a flirty wink.
Inirapan ko ang dalawa at natawa na lang sa mga pinagsasabi nila. Well, maybe it's not bad to have some fun naman, and I have reasons, since of course... it's my birthday. Besides, ayokong magmukmok lang dito sa apartment.
Nagkwentuhan muna kaming tatlo habang kinakain ang dala nilang cake, palabok, at buttered chicken. All time favorite.
"Flyn, Lei, thank you so much! you're really good at surprises, bitches!" as I said that, they quickly stood up and hugged me from behind. I don't really like hugs, but I guess allowing them now is my way of showing that I truly appreciate their effort. Jeez! Hindi ako sanay to say those things but... yeah.
After shopping, pumunta kami sa bahay ni Flyn dahil doon na kami mag-aayos. Every year, ito na ang ginagawa namin tuwing birthday ko. This is the only time I could be wild as hell and forget every shit that is happening in my life, going to our favorite club - The Cellar.
"Mandy, parang napapansin ko, tuwing birthday mo, mukhang mas lalong sumesexy yung mga sinusuot mo? Why is that huh?" tanong ni Lei na mukhang may ibang ibig-sabihin.
"What are you saying, Lei? Dang girl! I'm just wearing a fitted red dress." I clearly said as I apply the matte red lipstick as my finishing touch.
"There you go." I smiled first in front of the vanity mirror before I turned myself to them. "Let's go girls?" I asked, but I only got a...
"Daaaaaamn HOT!"
I just gave them a flirty smirk at natatawa nalang kaming lumabas na ng kwarto.
Our favorite club is just a short drive from Flyn's house kaya mabilis kaming nakarating sa destinasyon namin.
Pagpasok namin ay amoy ko agad ang naghahalong usok ng sigarilyo, vape, at liquors. Dumiretso kami sa bar counter para kumuha ng favorite naming vodka. The two straightly went to the dance floor while I chose to stay here muna sa counter.
Pinanood ko lang silang makipag-sayawan. Mukha silang mga nakawala sa hawla. Well, di ko rin masisisi kasi busy na rin ang mga ito. Lahat kami busy dahil graduating na.
I was about to drink my another shot of vodka when I saw someone from the sofa, seriously staring at me. Uhh..weird.
Iniwas ko ang tingin ko at agad nang ininom ang shot. Mabuti nalang saktong niyaya ako ni Lei sa dance floor.
Nakita namin ni Lei si Flyn at pumunta kami sa gawi niya. We're just swaying our body habang pinapatugtog ang kanta ni Britney Spears na Till The World Ends. Sobrang namiss ko 'to. I love going to clubs. It makes me forget the miseries of life.
Naramdaman ko na nahihilo na ko, kaya lumayo muna ko kina Flyn at Lei. Hindi ko alam kung naka-ilang kuha ako ng drinks doon sa nag-iikot na waiter.
Umupo ako sa pabilog na sofa na medyo malapit sa aircon. Pinapaypay ko ang kamay ko sa sobrang init na nararamdaman. Ugh. Ano ba yung mga ininom ko!
Nagulat ako nang makitang papalapit sa akin yung lalaking wagas makatitig sakin kanina. Mabilisan kongg hinila ang dress ko nang mapansing naligaw ang mata niya sa legs ko. Hindi ko alam kung saan ako nailang, sa pagtitig niya ba sa legs ko o sa kagwapuhan niya.
