Say Something {Manolo Pedrosa & Nichole Baranda}

Omg

Nichole's POV

Lunch time na. Of course, I'm with my new friends! ang saya talaga nila kasama. I can share anything with them. I can actually share anything. Alam ko kasing hindi nila ako huhusgahan..

"Nichole? Okay ka lang?" Gulat kong rinig ng biglang magagalit si Jane.

"Yeah. Why not?" Okay nga lang ba talaga ako...

"Alam mo, kalimutan mo na yung nagyari kanina. Kung papatol ka, talo ka! Wag mo nalang siya pansinin. Kakampi mo kami dito. :)"

Saad pa ni Jane.

"At pinagtanggol ka pa ng dream boy mo kanina!" Sabi ni Loisa and i can't even stop myself from smiling. HAHAHAHA. Erase erase. No. Hindi niya ko gusto okay? Hindi naman ako girlfriend material.

Tapos na kami mag-lunch lahat ng biglang tinapik ni Loisa yung likod ko! "Aray!" "Ba't ba?" gulat kong sabi.

"Si Manolo!"

"Oh tapos?" Ano ba yan!

"I think papunta siya sayo girl" dani?! Di ko alam na may side rin pala siyang ganito.

Pero.. TEKA?! MANOLO? PAPUNTA SAKIN? WHY?! OR ASSUMING LANG AKO :((( whatever

Naglakad na ko pabalik ng classroom and narinig ko nalang na may tumatawag ng name ko.

"Baranda!" "Ms!"

Tumalikod ako. "Huh?"

I just saw Manolo right in front of me smiling and i think he wants to tell me something.

"Yeah?" Ano ba to. Pinapasikip naman niya tong dibdib ko eh!

"Free ka ba later dismissal? May pupuntahan tayo. Friday naman eh" what?! Him asking?! Me?!

No way! I mean, yes way! Unbelievable lang talaga..

"Ano meron?" Grabe!!

"May pupuntahan tayong party. Well para sa Lasallians. Sama ka na. Just bring your friends. I won't take no as an answer." WTAF?! alam niyo yung feeling na ma-invite ng mismong crush niyo? Dayuuuuuuum.

"I'll ask them muna" teka alam ba to nila jane :(

"Niks! Di mo ba alam yung party na yun? It's for all the Lasallian community! Later night 7 pm onwards! I'll go but I have curfew. Si dani pupunta rin. Maris & loisa won't kasi ayaw nila." Ohhhhhhhh buti naman nandun si Jane. Mature na kasi siya and i love it 💗

Tumango nalang ako at humarap kay manolo.

"So what do you think?" He said while having those puffy eyes. Singkit eh.

"I'll ask my mom" wow sa tingin ko payag naman si mommy. Madalas kasi akong may party nung CSA days.

"Okay good" he replied while smiling. Wow grabe what a lunch break!

Fast forward! Dismissal na! Good thing si Mommy ang magsusundo sakin. Idk but she just said. I'm with Dani & Jane right now. As usual, MIA nanaman sina Loisa and Maris. Aga kasi umuwi nung mga yun eh.

Biglang may bumusina sa tapat ng Gate ng Zobel. And i knew it was my mom. Sakto nandiyan sila Jane para tulungan ako magpaalam!

"Hey mom, these are my friends, Dani and Jane!"

"Mom ko." I introduced them to each other.

The all said their hello's and Jane started the conversation by simply stating the thing that's going to happen tonight. Raaaaave!

She explained & explained...

"Alright. What time do I have to pick her up?" Uy pumayag! Wow!!!

"11 po, pwede na!" Dani said with a smile.

"Okay sure, I'll bring her there by 7." Naks pumayag si mom. Well, i expected that already.

"Okay, see you guys later!!" I said as a good bye.

When I got home, tinext ko kaagad si Jane & Dani.

To: Jane Oineza and Dani De Vera

"Hey guys! What do we have to wear? ☺️ -Niks"

After 3 minutes nagreply agad si Dani.

From: Dani De Vera

"Just wear a crop top or a midriff with denim shorts! That's the thing that Jane and I will wear. Get ready to raaaaaaave!! 🎉"

Wow! I think I'm excited. So yeah, when I got the message. Alam ko na agad kung anong isu-suot ko. I took a shower by 5:30 pm. After that hinanap ko kaagad yung naisip kong outfit.

Right now, I'm wearing a denim californian shorts with black crop top. Plain black Vans as a footwear.

I find my outfit comfortable kaya comfortable narin akong humaba. Naka-abang na si mommy sa Sala. I decided to just let my hair go with the flow kaya hinayaan ko siyang nakalugay.

"Wow, my hipster baby!" Whaaaaat. Thanks to my mom. She's the only who compliments me like this.

"Haha, shall we mom? It's already 6:24!"

"Alright. Alam ko namang excited ka kasi first time mong makasama ang Lasallians" "sana mag enjoy ka. And! Know your limitations, Kim." She reminded about that. I know. Swear. I really do.

I just nodded and tuluyan na kaming umalis.
