I had almost backed out of going to the party.
Hearing Kyson and some girl going at it when I went to his apartment earlier had made me ill. I wasn't ready to face him just yet.
Knowing the sounds he made during sex made me feel funny. I admitted to myself that I was insanely jealous of whoever that was screaming his name.
His text that he wouldn't be able to have dinner with me was thoughtful. He hadn't had to say anything. It wasn't like he had said he would be there.
I hadn't wanted to respond to him, because I was aware that he was texting me after his wild sex. Ignoring him was rude, though. He was being nice, so I couldn't be rude.
I had typed my reply three times and erased all three, finally settling on something simple.
Friend like.
At saka sigurado naman ako na nasabihan siya ni Tatiana na pupunta ako doon sa party, so magkikita kami doon. Hindi naman ako pwedeng hindi pumunta dahil ayokong maging bastos. Tatiana had been so nice today and had even refused to let me buy my meal.
She insisted that she had invited me to lunch and she was paying. I reached over and picked up the gift I had wrapped in glitter paper.
It had taken me an hour this afternoon at the toy store to decide on something for this little girl I had never met. I didn't want to arrive empty-handed to her birthday party.
After much debate, I had settled on a jewelry-making kit. It even had supplies so she could paint the stones with designs of her own. I would have loved something like this as a kid. I hoped I had bought the right thing for a nine-year-old girl.
A tap on my window startled me, and I turned to see the porcelain perfect face of Emily. Her friendly smile eased my anxiety some, and I opened my door and stepped out.
"I'm so glad you came. Sinabi sa akin ni Tia na inimbitahan ka niya. She really enjoyed lunch today. I'm so coming to the next lunch¸" as I closed the car door behind me.
"It was fun. Tatiana is really a great person." I glanced back at the large house. "It was really nice of her to invite me."
