Four months na lang graduation na. Yahooooo! So what’s your plan after grad? Aren’t you excited girls? Julie said in a loud voice with full of excitement.

Ang ingay Julie? Pwede pahinaan? Hello? Wala sa kabilang bundok ang kausap mo? Anna said while eating her food.

I know. Sorry naman? Excited lang haha. You know. Last na naten ‘to and hello real world na. Welcome to the corporate world. So ano nga? Ikaw Belle? Julie said with matching actions pa haha.

Ahh ako? I don’t have any plans yet. Kung saan si Paul dun din ako. I said while grinning.

So, si papa Paul pa din until now? Jusko! 8 years mo na siyang pinapantasya pero wala pa din nangyayari? Haha sabagay. Sa dami ba naman na nagkakandarapa sa kanya imposible ka niyang mapansin. -Julie

Wow! Salamat sa support Julie ha? The best ka talagang kaibigan kahit kailan. Tumaas yung self-confidence ko dahil sa sinabi mo. I said in a sarcastic voice.

I know. Kaya nga mahal mo ako right, Anna? Hahaha. Kidding aside. Asan na ba si Jacob? Tagal niyang dumating. Pa-vip lagi. Hindi naman importanteng tao. –Julie

O ayan na pala siya. Pustahan, nanlalaki pa yan kaya yan natagalan? Malanding Jacob kahit kelan hahaha. –Anna

Hoy rinig ko yun, hindi ako nanlalaki at FYI sa ganda kong ito, hindi ako naghahabol sa lalaki, sila ang naghahabol saken. Wag mo ako igaya kay Belle, habol ng habol kay Paul hahaha. –Jacob said while sitting in our side.

Bakla ka kahit kelan! Haha. Crush ko nga si Paul pero hindi ako naghahabol sa kanya. So tara na? Nandyan na yung sasakyan namen. – I said to them with a paalala mode.

We’re here at Cafeteria na malapit sa school. We’re planning to have a movie night today total Saturday naman bukas at walang pasok. It’s our one way to bond each other na rin.

After we ate dinner we decided to watch movie since it is movie night hahaha.

What movie we’re going to watch mga bakla? –Jacob

The wedding date kaya? Maganda din ‘tong once upon a song. Do you think Belle? Anna said while showing the two dvd to us.

Either of the two. I said

No. No. No. Not that. I think oblivion or salt are the best movie for this night. Julie said while looking to Anna

Aha! Pitch perfect kaya? Mas maganda yun. Tama yun na lang. –Jacob

No! Anna and Julie said (At talagang sabay pa sila) Hahaha.

By the way, I’m Maria Natalia Isabelle Acosta. Belle for short (pronounced it as Bel). 19 years old. 4th year college taking up Business Management (w/c means this is my last year) at University of the Philippines – Diliman. I have a perfect dad and perfect friends that nothing more to ask for. Still, I have a perfect mom even though she’s gone. I was back 10 when she died because she’s sick. And if you’re asking for a perfect boyfriend? Hmpp. Not until na magiging kame ni Paul Benedict Dizon. I think I have a perfect life if we will be together. Unfortunately, when it comes to Paul, it is all a dream. A dream that I wish to become a reality. Since when we were in 6th grade, I fall in love to him. And seeing him everyday at school even though in far, it made me smile and made my day complete. Yes, I am obsessed to him, really. And only my friends know about this. But because they are my friends kulang na lang ipagkalat at ipagsigawan nila sa buong university na may gusto ako kay Paul, but anyway, they are my friends, still. Let me introduced to you all of them. I have Julie who is very pasaway and sobrang daldal, we already knew each other when we were in high school. Anna who is very tahimik and conservative and we already knew each other since lil’ kid because of family friends. And last, is Jacob, who is very very very maarte and malandi sa barkda and we already know each other when we entered in college. Yes, his gay but it is not an issue to us. As long as he is true to himself, we love him. And one thing is for sure that even though we have different characters, attitudes, and behaviour, we love each other. We are family as one. 

And speaking of Paul, I am in love to him for almost 8 years. I am here at UP because of him. I choose my course, because of him and I am happy right now because of him.  But I need to accept the sad fact that I am not his dream girl, I am not the right girl for him. He’s a heartthrob in the said university. Gwapo, mayaman, matalino, medjo hambog nga lang minsan. He’s everyone’s dream guy. He’s surrounded with different beautiful girls that’s why he called playboy. But aside from that, hindi pa rin nabawasan ang pagmamahal ko sa kanya.  Ganyan ako ka-loyal when it comes to him.

Kaya ayun, nag end up kame sa one more chance na movie.

Akala ko ba ayaw niyo yung movie? Sus! Kunwari pa, nagustuhan naman. I said while laughing pano ba naman kase I saw them crying. Masyado atang naramdaman yung pinapanood.

Korek ka diyan bakla. Jacob said while looking at me sabay appear pa.

E kase naman. Julie said sabay bato ng unan kay Jacob.

Jacob and I laughing together while looking at Anna and Julie na nagpupunas ng luha  gamit ang tissue.

Pwede ba wag kayo maingay baka magising daddy ni Belle. –Anna

I know, sinabi nya lang yun para tumigil kame ni Jacob sa kakatawa and she wins. Napatigil nga kame. Yes, she’s right baka magising si daddy patay ako dun.

After two movies, natulog na din kameng apat. And before I closed my eyes I thank God how happy I am to have a family like this.
