" OH—MY—"
" Riverbabe !!! "
Nagulat kaming lahat nang tawagin ako ni Alvior at lumapit sa akin.
What did he just—
" YOU FUCKING DIPSHIT !! what did you call her ? "
Tiana and Alvior went beside me while everyone could not believe it. No way, they must have get this wrong. Anong kalokohan nito ni Alvior ?
" Riverbabe ? why ? she's single and I'm single. Whats wrong with that ? "
Oh I just couldnt stand this. I forced a smile at him and left them to go to the girls. His teammates are laughing but I dont have to look at them. I just dont need to.
" tangina bawat school may babe kang hayup ka. "
Ang ingay ng Lanercost at may mga grupo ng babae na malapit sa kanila. Unti-unti ng napupuno ang venue. There are other students here who recognized us. Some are walking to us to greet us and have few talks.
Moments later the stage is ready and everyone is excited to see the first band to perform. Pero ang mas nakakuha ng atensyon ko ay ang nangyayaring biruan sa Lanercost at sa mga kasama ko dito. Tahimik akong nakapwesto sa bandang likod at deretsyo lang ang tingin dahil hindi ako makaimik sa mga naririnig.
They've been constantly talking with Ale and jokes around about attending her fashion show. But one dude from the Lanercost really showed some obvious proof he's interested. He is quite familiar though. Natatandaan ko Preston ang apelidong nakita ko sa jersey niya nung nanuod ako ng game nila against DSU.
" my little sister really likes you. Can we take a picture. She'll be happy for it. "
Pinipilit kong magseryoso pero hindi ko talaga kaya. Men can be really tricky sometimes, arent they ?
" Hoy Ri "
I turned to Bridgette when she raised her brow and looked at my hair.
" whats the catch at may pa short hair si madam ? "
" hindi ba bagay sakin ? "
" not my point. Why did you cut your hair though ? I mean why so sudden ? "
" you guys are so paranoid. Stop putting some meaning on everything. I just want to try this hairstyle. "
" weee ? talaga ba ? "
" whatever "
Maya-maya ay sumali din si Jamie at parehas nila akong inintriga.
" pag blooming daw ibig sabihin masaya sa relationship "
What ? Who the hell told her that ? First of all I dont look like as beautiful as the flowers, and second, lets not talk about that relationship.
" yiieeee you're a very private person Ri, pero hindi naman kami madaldal. How long have you been together ? "
" guys I dont have one okay ? I'm too busy. I cant even save time for myself. That is not just for me "
Pinagpatuloy pa rin nila ang pang-aasar sa akin at sa totoo lang ay kinakabahan ako pero hindi ko talaga pinahalata. Specially when Lanercost is talking with everyone on my team now. Aakalain mo talagang close na close namin sila. At itong sina Janine at Rose talagang bumigay na. They are laughing with them and having drinks.
Napansin naming katabi na ni Ale yung isa sa mga teammate nila. Kaya pala panay ang tawanan at kinakantyawan nila ito. I was right though, he is Preston.
" pota, lakas talaga. "
" oy Preston tinatanong ka ni Jessica, saan ka na daw. Sabi mo naligo ka lang HAHAHAHA "
