LOVE & PROMISES [Editing]

Chapter 31 || I don't want to

1 week later..

Realidad Montevilla University's students were chattering about the upcoming night party for all the students to celebrate after the final exams.

The Elites walks inside the building, the students continued on their chattering but made way for the Elites.

"Balita ko dapat may partner na kasama bago makapasok sa party.", Abigale said as she smiles to herself in her small mirror.

"Mr. and Mrs. Garcia is planning something..", Alex thought to herself as she walks with her fake boyfriend, Clark.

Selene looked at Axel who's behind her and smiled. The boy smiled back. Nagulat ang binata nang bigla siyang hawakan sa kamay ng dalaga. "You'll be my date, right?", tanong ni Selene sa kanya. He nodded and gave her a sweet smile.

They were suddenly separated from each other by Deanne. She hooked her arms to their arm and walked with them. "Edi sana ol.", sambit niya at huminga ng malalim.

"Di kaya pwedeng mag-third wheel?", sabay ngisi sa dalawa. Biglang may humila sa kanya mula sa likod. "Partner nga eh.", ani ni Alex na nakahawak sa kwelyo ng dalaga.

"Wag kang panira ng moment. Kita mong naghaharutan yung dalawa eh.", tuloy niya ng may halong pagbibiro. Namula ang pisngi nila Axel at Selene.

Elijah flinched at the sudden arm hooked on his arm. "I'll be Elijah's partner.", Abigale said with a happy tone. The boy got flustered and just nodded kahit na ang gusto niya talagang maging kapartner ay si Venice.

"Basta automatic na date ko si Alex.", singit ni Clark habang hawak-hawak ang kabilang kamay ni Alex. Bumuntong-hininga ang dalaga at umirap. She can't do anything about it. "Namamawis kamay mo.", masungit niyang tugon habang inaalis sa pagkahawak ang kanilang mga kamay.

Ngumuso naman ang binata. "Hindi naman eh.", reklamo niya at hinawakan ulit ang kamay ng kanyang "girlfriend". Di na nagpumiglas ang dalaga at hinayaan nalamang siya.

Venice looked at Yohan and Deanne glanced at Leo, who's looking defeated already. The girls knew they want to ask her to be their date. Venice and Deanne shook it off and continued to talk to their other friends.

"Ehey, pano ba yan wala naman akong kapartner.", sabi ni Deanne habang inaayos ang ginulong kwelyo ni Alex.

Venice catches up to them. "Andami mong fan boys oh, edi pumili ka sa kanila.", pagbibiro niya habang lumilingon sa mga tinutukoy niya. Napalingon sila sa mga lalaking nagaabang sa harapan ng classroom nila.

Disgust appeared on Deanne face which made them laugh. "Gusto mo bang mawala mga gamit mo?", she threatened Venice. "Nagbibiro lang ako!", sabay tawa ng kaibigan.

"Taray ni Deanne, may mga manliligaw.", Xander said in his gay tone. Umirap ang dalaga, "Kung gusto mo, sayong sayo na yang mga yan.", sagot niya sa nakatatandang kaibigan.

Xander scrunched his nose and shook his head. "Uh nope, too ugly for my beautiful face.", his usual confident self said. All of his friends snickered at his statement.

"Bakit kasi hindi nalang ako naging lalaki.", Deanne blabbered, hiding the fact that she wants to be partnered with a specific person.

They approached the group of boys that was clearly waiting for her. Napansin sila ng mga ito at nagsimulang sumuyo sa dalaga. Irritation is slowly taking over Deanne.

"Please, Ate Deanne."

"Di na kita kukulitin ulit pag ako pinili mo."

"I'll buy you everything you want."
