It's Joshua's birthday today at naisipan niyang iinvite kami sa bahay niya. Anyway meron narin kami sariling bahay, yung pangarap naming bahay, malayo to sa dati naming bahay at hindi rin malapit sa dati naming city kaya ito kami nasa long drive papunta sa bahay ni Joshua.

"panget naman ng regalo mo" Joshua ranted.

"huh? paano? e wala ka naman jan. Mas panget ka jan, wag kang papatalo" Nathan teased.

"nakakatuwa ka talaga" Joshua said sarcastically.

"weh? single ka lang e" Nathan teased.

"salamat sa pagpapaalala" he said sarcastically.

"welcome" Joshua hit Nathan.

"ARAY!" Nathan yelled and turned his gaze on me.

"sakit ng katawan ko" Nathan suddenly said.

"bakit?" I asked pretending I didn't hear his rants.

"araw araw ba namang mahulog sayo" he said and smirked at Joshua. I guess he's teasing Joshua.

"wag mo akong kakausapin kahit kailan" Joshua responded.

"hoy Nat! gusto mo bang shumot?" tanong ni Ace galing sa malayo. I glared at him.

"uh...shumot ng ano, ng H2o hehe" he defended himself. Nathan stood up.

"hoy! saan ka pupunta? tatakas ka no? tangina ka alam ko na yang style mo, bulok parin" Joshua said when he put a glass of tequila on Nathan's desk.

"I'm going to release toxic gas, bitch" he told Joshua before smiling at me.

"toxic gas amputa, saan galing yon ha?" Joshua didn't get it.

"sa pwet, tanga ka ba?" Nathan defended himself.

"toxic gas daw, leche ka utot lang saamin yon, imbento ka!" Xander ranted.

"hoy gago! naging pang chinese yung cellphone ko! amputa talaga o" nagreklamo si Xander kasi yung letters sa phone niya naging pang chinese.

"punta ka sa settings, scroll down ka tapos pag narating mo na yung dulo, edi stay strong sainyo" Raven said.

"maling mali Raven, ganito, punta ka sa settings tapos hanapin mo yung Language and Region, pag di mo nakita...baka sumamana siya sa iba" Joshua dramatically wiped his fake tears.

"wala kayong kwenta" Xander shaked his head.

"hoy! baka tumawag yung may ari, tanggalin mo muna yung sim card!" Venice said.

"tanga! pre Xander, kung ako sayo, ibabad mo sa bigas yan, hayaan mong ang mga bigas na ang gumawa niyan para sayo" Ace said.

"wala kayong kwenta" Xander smiled sarcastically.

"alam niyo? ang panget kaya kapag magkaibigan kayo tas naging magjowa, pero hindi naman sa ayaw ko ha, in fact, perfect couple para saakin sina Shaz at Nat" Joshua said.

"o tapos? inggit ka nanaman?" Nathan teased.

"birthday ko ngayon diba? pede bang pumanig ka muna saakin?" Joshua sarcastically asked.

"happy birthday nga pala, shanghai? saan na?" Ace asked.

"iluluto palang, tangina kayo aga niyo e" Joshua fired.

"isipin mo yon, 26 ka na pero wala ka paring jowa" Nathan teased. We laughed.

"alam mo kung hindi ka pogi, hindi ka mamahalin ni Shaznei" Joshua fired.

"ulol, binalikan nga ako e" he fired back.

"facts" I said.

We laughed and laughed. This is one of the best days of my life, they always made my years the best. I hope they'll also find someone for them. Someone who can fulfill their satisfactions, their needs, but most of all, their emptiness. Parang kahapon lang, pinapanood ko silang dahan dahang inaabot ang mga pangarap nila, pero ngayon they are more successful and reliable than me.

Special thanks to my number one supporter, my number one believer and my number one teacher. Without him, I am not the Shaznei that you knew today, maybe I'm still emotionless and in pain, but because of him, I learned how to love and feel loved, just like the number one basis in this world. I'm so lucky to find a man that will love, support, trust and care for me on my next years.

He made me believe that everyone could change no matter how bad, how good and how empty people were. He understood my mistakes and brought up the best of me.

He changed me. He made my life better and I will never forget how he taught and loved me 'til the day I fell down.

I can't wait to start a new and even better life with him. My man, Nathan Alcantara.
