I arrived at 9:00 in this place Clyde told me about which was J's Tavern. This place is nice. It's like a hang out or something. It's full of teenagers who were like the same age as me or even younger. I don't see Clyde anywhere, might as well call him. He answered on the third ring.

"Xandra! Where are you?"

"I said Xander, remember?"

"Oh right. Haha! My bad. Where are you?"

"I'm outside J's Tavern."

"Wait! Stay there."

"Okay"

I sipped the remaining part of my frappe and threw it away. Then suddenly someone grabbed my shoulder. I immediately grabbed his hand and tackle him down.

"YAH! That hurts!" Oh crap, it's Clyde.

"Sh**! I'm sorry. Here" I offered his hand and helped him up. He tried to fix his clothing and hat.

"Woah! Pare, hinay hinay lang. Yan kase eh. Nagulat yung babae" The guy behind me spoke and I gave him an apologetic smile.

"Tara na bro, mahuhuli na tayo sa enrollment. Asan na ba yung kasama mo?" The guy beside him spoke while smiling at me. I gave him a what-are-you-looking-at look.

"I'm really sorry Clyde. I thought you were someone else." He tried to smile while rotating his shoulder.

"For a woman, you are really strong. As in really strong, you know that?" I gave him a nervous laugh.

"Magkakilala kayo bro?" The third guy spoke up and pointed at me. I'm lost here. I can't even understand them.

"Bro, si Xander nga pala. Yung bago kong kaibigan." He said it to his friends and put his arm on my shoulder.

"Teka teka, si Xander ay babae?" The second guy said and he was hit in the head by the first guy.

"Loko! Nakita mo na nga na babae magtatanong ka pa." The second guy rubbed his head and immediately held his hand out to me.

"Hey. Ako nga pala si Top Lim." I shook his hand and immediately looked at Clyde. 

"Ay oo nga pala, englishera to bro. So speak in english." Their eyes went wide.

"Oh, i  eolyeodba (this is hard)" The guy named Top, I think said and scratched his head.

"Oh! dangsin-eun hangug-eo malhal su? (Can you speak korean?" His eyes were even wider when I said it.

"Yeah! I'm half-korean." He said and grinned at me.

"Hello? There's a Filipino standing here" Clyde waved infront of my face.

I laughed and grinned at the three of them. "I'm Xandra, but my friends call me Xander. mannaseo bangabseubnida (Nice to meet you)" I bowed to them and turned to Clyde.
