CHAPTER 7 : CLEF

| C H A P T ER 7: Clef |

Me and Mi really went from talking about how her brothers decided on investing their trust funds to The Alpha to guessing what the next songs would be played by the VJ. 

She typed and said, "I bet the next song would be a mix for Dance Monkey." 

Just as I was about to take the bet with her, Jon appeared out of nowhere. He scooched himself in between me and Mi. Sali-sali din tong si gago. 

Mi looked at him and then at me. "I don't know if you're familiar with him but this is Jon, my manager and my best friend... I guess."

"I know, but I don't think we ever talked?" 

Jon smiled at her and extended his hand for her to shake, "Hi. Yung mga kuya mo lang ang nakakausap ko usually eh. But hello,"
Mi was about to take his hand but I took his hand instead, I could already smell alcohol coming from him and he tend to get flirty when he has that in his system. 

"What were you guys talking about kanina?" he asked.

I answered him, "We were just betting kung anong music ipapa tug-tug next ng VJ." 

He got excited and said that he would join. "I think he'll be playing a kpop song mix next." 

"Hmm, then I'll change my choice. I have a feeling that it'll be any EDM from either 2019 - 2020." 

I agreed with Mi so we all decided that it'd be me and Mi together against Jon. If the next song would be a Kpop mix and he wins, we both have to do a dare. And if we win, he has to do a dare from us as well. 

For the first round, me and Mi lost. I still couldn't believe that the VJ decided to play a mix of a kpop song. 

"Okay, I dare you guys to do a love shot." 

I looked at him then reminded him that I was a designated driver tonight and I wasn't supposed to be drinking. 

Jon rolled his eyes, got a can of coke and an unopened bottle of Smirnoff Mule at the side. He gave me the coke and gave Mi the Smirnoff. 

She then didn't wait for a bottle opener and decided to open the bottle by hitting the cap from the table edge. Wow, may potential din tong si Mi ah. 

Jon then stared at me after witnessing the scene and gave me a thumbs up. Then he whispered to me, "Walang ka arte-arte toh, napaka-cowboy pala neto ni Mi noh? I'm stanning." 

With his slurring words, I knew that he was a few bottles away from hitting his limit. I chose to ignore his comment and proceeded to do the love shot with Mi. She had her Smirnoff, I had my Coke. 

I didn't know how Jon kept winning at this game! He had been winning for 5 consecutive times, his dares had been having me and Mi do countless of love shots. It didn't seem like Mi minded it anyways, her face was already starting to flush from the alcohol. 

Me and Jon would keep arguing that he definitely had something up his sleeve. How could he not have any loss? She would just stare at both of us, smile and laugh here and there but haven't spoken (or typed to her phone). 

Her brothers came and asked her if she was still good, and to that she just gave a nod. 

Kuya Re came up to me, "Are you dropping her off or sasama siya sa amin?"

"Mi, am I dropping you off or will you be going with them?" 

She answered me by pointing at me, giving a wide smile to both her brothers. It seemed like she was enjoying spending time with not just me but also Jon. Despite not talking at all, I could tell that she liked hanging out with Jon.
