Under the City Lights (It Girl Series #1)

4

I was holding my Starbucks drink as I walk down the hallway, checking the booths of each club. Today is the last day of the sports festival and ayaw ko na magka problema.

Pagka balik namin galing nang clinic that day, hindi na kami nag kita pa. Sayang naman. Gusto ko pa naman siya makitang mag laro ng basketball kaso I have my responsibilities din naman.

"Hoy Fiona!" tawag agad sa akin ni Stephanie, she was with Alexis. Agad naman ako lumapit sa kanilang dalawa "Oh? Kamusta na ang pinaka check ko sa inyo?" agad naman kinuha ni Stephanie ang coffee ko at ininum 'yon.

"The booths on the left wing are doing fine. Ganon din sa south wing" Alexis calmly said and I smiled at her "By the way, I am throwing a party mamaya. You girls better come" Steph warned us.

"Oo na. As if Fiona and I can say no to you. You need someone to look after you, after all" Alexis grinned at Stephanie kaya agad naman niya ito sinabunutan ngunit hinampas kaagad ni Alexis ang kamay ni Stephania.

"You're coming right, Fio?" I nodded kaya napatawa agad si Stephanie "Syempre sasama 'yan Lex. Crush na kaya niyan si Jolo" I immediately covered her mouth. Nakakahiya! Baka may makarinig sa amin!

"Stephanie Lillian! Ang ingay mo letche!" she removed my hand from her mouth at tumawa siya ng malakas "Can't believe it Fiona. First time mo ata magkaroon ng crush" Alexis chuckled kaya namula ako ng sobra

"Will you both just shut up" umalis agad ako pero nakasunod din naman 'yung dalawa sa akin. We were on our way to the council room nang makasabay namin ang basketball team.

"Oh! Miss president!" rinig kong sigaw ng isa sa mga teammates nila pinilit ko na hindi lumingon kasi baka kasama nila si Jolo. Syempre kasama nila, siya kaya team captain! I mentally killed Stephanie and Alexis inside my head when both of them stopped and waved at the basketball team. Alexis literally pulled me back! I almost lost my balance!

"Bitch" i quietly cursed her which I know narinig niya naman since she chuckled a bit. "Hi" bati ko naman sa kanila and binati din naman ako nila isa isa. I was glad to see na wala si Jolo. I mentally fought with myself na wag mag tanong kung saan siya.

"Oh. Hindi nyo ba kasama captain nyo?" tanong ng bruhang stephanie. I am now convinced that Stephanie is my biggest jinx in life. Nakakabwesit na.

"Ah hindi. Baka maya maya andito na din 'yun. By the way, sorry po pala miss pres ha. Muntikan na kayo mapahamak dahil sa akin" the guy apologized to me, tinignan ko nang mabuti ang kanyang mukha. Ah oo! Isa siya sa mga lalake na muntikan na ako madaganan nung game! Wow he's part of the varsity din pala.

I smiled at him and told him na I was fine "Ako dapat ang mag sorry sa inyo. Dahil sa akin na injured ang captain niyo" I looked down, up until now kinakain ako ng konsensya ko. He hurt his shoulders. Baka ano pa mangyare dun at hindi makapag laro.

"How many times do I have to tell you na wala kang kasalanan" i almost jumped when I felt someone's hot breath near my neck. I immediately looked back and saw Jolo smirking. He was wearing a black shirt paired with black pants and balenciaga shoes.

"Captain!" the boys acknowledge him, he just nodded at them "Sorry na late ako, may pinuntahan lang" umalis na din ang basketball team pero Jolo stayed. I do not even know why.

"Ano, mga kaibigan ko pala. Stephanie Gomez, VP for finance. Alexis del Valle, VP for discipline" my friends greeted him and he greeted them back "Stephanie Gomez?" he asked, looking a bit shocked. Well I guess it is normal if makilala niya si Steph. She knows a lot of people.

"Yep, why?" stephanie asked him, also sounding curious "Ah. Nothing" he bit his lips hiding his smirk. Hindi ko na gets kaya hinayaan ko nalang.

"By the way, bakit hindi ka sumama sa mga teammates mo?" we went to the Gokongwei Bldg. para doon daw kumain since madami din ang booths doon.

I was shocked when he offered na siya nalang daw ang mag oorder para sa amin. I was hesistant since he still has his shoulder injury kaya hindi niya pwedeng dalhin lahat ng pagkain lalo na't apat kami, but he insisted kaya hinayaan nalang namin.

"Oh I should invite Jolo for my party tonight! What do you think, Fiona?" tanong ni Steph sa akin habang kinakalikot ang phone niya. Siguro nag sesend na ng additional invites.

"Ikaw bahala" agad naman niya ako binato ng tissue "Gaga ka! Tinatanong nga kita, malay mo diba chance mo na to para lumandi!" she giggled

"E-excuse me! Hindi ako malandi!" pinapanood lang kami ni Alexis kaya sinabunutan ka agad siya ni Stephanie

"Bruha ka. Tulungan mo ako dito!" agad din naman siya binatukan ni Alexis "Wag mo hilahin buhok ko bwesit ka! Kakasalon ko lang kahapon" angal ni Alexis which caused Stephanie to pout

"Invite him steph. Para may malandi itong si Fiona mamaya" Stephanie laughed "Hindi nga ako malandi! Pati ba naman ikaw Soliel Alexis!" angal ko sa kanila pareho "I will never like play boys" nanlaki ang mata ko sa sinabi ni Alexis but she just smirked at me

"Scammer ka, Fiona Alyssa"
