"Bakit ka ba biglang nag-aya mag bar? Do you have a problem, Mau?" Sarah asked me while i'm putting a light makeup on my face.

I sighed and just continue what I am doing refusing to answer her question. Right now, ny ate is doing well. Nandito siya ngayon sa bahay namin, ang ginawa na lang naming palusot ay she misses us that's why she'll stay. And her husband? He's mesirable after knowing that my ate is decided na aalis muna sa bahay nilang dalawa.

"Ito na lang, bakit nandito si Ate Xia?" Pangungulit na tanong neto sa akin. I remained silent as I put my red lipstick.

"It's not my story to tell. You'll know soon, or maybe sooner." I gave her a hint. The mistress is the ex-girlfriend of my ate's husband. And the baby? According to the private investigator that I hired, it wasn't Nathan's child. It was another man but Nathan is willing to the father. Why? Because the girl can produce a child, not like my Ate na miracle ang nangyari.

"You're keeping many things from me. Nakakatampo na, akala ko ba bestfriend tayo?" Malungkot na ang boses ni Sarah. I smiled at her and hugged her.

"I can't just spill out what I am feeling right now. Sobrang bigat eh, you know me hangga't kaya ko pa, gusto ko ako lang muna." I whispered and push away the tears.

"Okay, but promised me you'll tell me when you're ready." I said my promised on her and get my purse for us to go. Pumunta muna ako sa room ni Ate para mag paalam. She can't go with us cause she's pregnant at hindi pwede sakanya ang mausok at crowded places. Delikado, yun ang sabi ng doctor dahil nga maselan siya mag buntis lalo na sa sitwasyon niya ngayon.

"Hey, long time no see!" Masiglang bati sa amin ni Cassy ng makita kami sa entrance ng bar. Hindi kami sabay-sabay pumunta pero nag hihintayan kami rito sa labas. Nauna silang dumating at kami na ang huli.

"Hey, how are you?" Tanong ko sakanya.

"I'm fine. Let's go inside nandon na ang iba dahil nag reserve sila ng table para sa atin." Sabi neto, agad naman kaming pumasok at sumunod sakanya.

Actually, it's our celebration because we have a successful partnership. First, laging sold out ang mga summer wear na kami ni Sarah ang nag endorse. Second, naging kilala kami ng husto ni Sarah because of JiaLex clothing line. And lastly kami na ni Jayce. Too fast? Wala eh, nahulog ako. At tsaka why would I waste my time na patagalin kong pwede naman namin kilalanin ang isa't isa ng husto while we're together 'di ba?

"Love!" Masayang tawag sa akin ni Jayce ng kami kaming papalapit sa pwesto nila. I smiled and sat beside him. He kissed my forehead and whispered.

"Why are you wearing too short dress? Hmmm?" Sabi neto. Nakakakiliti ang pag bulong neto sa akin dahil nilalaro-laro niya ang tenga ko gamit ang kanyang labi.

"Hey, there's a lot of people here." Sita sa amin ni Sarah. Agad naman lumayo sa akin si Jayce at tumawa ng bahagya, even me. Sarah is always strict, lalo na't ngayo na lang ako ulit nag kaboyfriend.

"Kayong dalawa naku! 'Wag kayong ganyan kapag madami ang tao, mamaya iba ang isipin nila sainyo! Big personalities pa man din kayo!" Payo sa amin ni Lexine na katabi ang asawa niyang si Anton.

On the other hand, we keep on telling stories and drinking. Hanggang sa isa-isa na silang nag sasayaw sa dance floor. "Sarah is drunk." I said to my boyfriend.

Nandoon siya sa dancefloor kasama sila Lexine, ako nandito sa sofa nakaupo at nagmamasid lang. I don't know, hindi ko feel sumayaw or uminom ng madami, kaunti pa nga lang ang nainom ko.

"Halata nga, look at Zander's face. He looked annoyed." Tumatawang komento ni Jayce. As I looked at them I saw Sarah put her arm in Zander's nape and initiated a kiss. W-wait! What?

"HEY!" I exclaimed like they will hear me! I stood up and march towards Sarah's direction and pulled her.

"You're drunk! Bumalik ka doon at nang mahimasmasan kang gaga ka!" Galit na sabi ko at hinila siya pabalik sa table namin.

Sumunod sa amin si Zander na namumula, hindi ko alam kong dahil sa alak o dahil sa halik ni Sarah. My gosh! These two, napaka visible ng feelings nila sa isa't isa pero they don't want to be together yet.

"What happened?" Alex asked, he's Cassandra's husband.

I shrugged and lend my water to Sarah. I let her drink it all, she needs it. If I were a bad girl, i'm going to splash it to her face nang mahimasmasan siya ng tuluyan! My gosh!

"They kissed!" I heard Cassandra's voice. I laughed softly because they saw it too, but the voice didn't.

They are all looked drunk, habang kami ni Jayce okay pa. Hindi kasi kami umiinom ng sobra. Nagstay muna silang lahat sa couch while I excused myself para pumunta ng comfort room. Sinama ko si Sarah para makapaghilamos at mas mahimasmasan siya.

"What did I do Mau?" She asked me while looking at my mirror reflection. I rolled my eyes on her before answering her question.

"You kissed Zander." I simply said that made her shocked. That's what you get from drinking too much.

Pabalik na kami sa table namin ng makita ko si Nathan, kasama ang mga kaibigan niya. Batid kong nakita niya rin ako dahil nagkasalubong ang mga mata namin, but I just rolled my eyes on him. Hindi siya kinakausap ni ate, kahit anong gawin niyang pagpilit. Who would have thought that he'll cheat cause his wife can't bear a child.

"Maureen." Matigas na pagtawag ni Nathan sa pangalan ko.

"What do you need?" Seryosong tanong ko habang nakatayo sa harap ng mga kaibigan ko. Sinundan niya pala ako, maybe he's expecting na kasama ko si ate. But no, I will never let him see my sister.

"Where's your sister? Give her back to me!" Galit na sabi neto. Tumawa ako ng pagak, give my sister? Then what? Funny, siya na itong nagloko siya pa galit. I asked the horrible question that made them all, lalo na si Sarah utter a curse.


"Why? Sawa kana sa kabit mo?"
