The party started. I changed my outfit and I just wear a dress. I went downstairs and everybody is enjoying the music of City Lights Band. They are so cool and good.

I went to the table where Chi and my other classmates was. "Happy birthday!" they all greeted and I smiled. "Thank you. Did you enjoyed?" I asked and almost everybody nodded. "Your debut is well planned. We are so happy to be part of your special day." Marleigh said and I just smiled. Nagpaalam na ako dahil marami pa akong bisitang aasikasuhin. Everybody wants to take a picture with me. I didn't know who will be the first to approach.

After picture taking I went on Bon's place. He is with his brothers and Ryssi and Devon. "Hi" I wave my hands and they all looked at me. Their tables have a lot of foods and wine. "Thank you for coming." I said. "Come here." Eion said and patted the chair beside him.

I sit there and look at him. He comb his fingers through my hair. "Grey, what's your gift to my girl?" Eion asked to kuya Grey. I bit my lip for the term he used. My girl 👉❤️👈

"We combined for one gift." Kuya Grey said pointing at Bon. My forehead creased when Bon held a mini box to me. The box was color black and has a red ribbon. "Here. Sana magustuhan mo. We can't think of any gift to you. Sorry." Bon said and I quickly shook my head. "No it's fine. I know how to appreciate efforts." I said and look at Eion.

"Remember? 'Yung card nga na binigay niya sa'akin isang statement lang ang saya ko na." I said and Eion rolled his eyes. "Guess what's inside." Kuya Grey said. I look at the box and shake it. "It's a box, so maybe accessory?" I unsurely said and they both laugh. "Oh my G! Don't tell me this is a diamond necklace?!" I said and they both shrugged.

"Quit guessing. Just opened the fucking box!" Eion angrily said. "What's wrong with you?" I asked smiling but he just rolled his eyes. I removed the ribbon in the box and slowly opened it. My jaw drop and quickly put my hands in my mouth. "I-It's a key." I said looking at Bon and kuya Grey.

"Did you liked it?" kuya Grey asked. "Key for what? Eion's heart?" I said laughing but deep inside I'm shaking.

"It's just a. . .

a penthouse key ." Bon said and my eyes widen. "No, no. I can't take it." I said and push the box to him. He said it's just a penthouse key. Penthouse lang? Lang? "Nakapangalan na 'yon sayo." kuya Grey said and I sighed. "Take it Aziel. They are son's of billionares, it's just a twenty five cent's to them." Eion said and my shoulder fell down.

"I thought you know how to appreciate efforts?" kuya Grey said and I feel embarrassed. I bit my lip and held a deep breath. I get the box. I look up to stop myself from crying. "Are you mad?" Bon asked and give me a tissue. I shook my head.

"No." I answer and their forehead creased. "With or without gift, I appreciate it. And you give me this. . . this is too much huh. You're spoiling me. I just didn't expect that you all come to my life" I said. I was so shocked when Eion cupped my face and force me look at him. I gulped when he get a tissue and wiped my tears. "Stop crying." he uttered.

"Yeah. Stop crying because Eion's surprise is more than this." kuya Grey said and I automatically glanced at Eion. He just shrugged. OMG! I'm so curious! Kuya Grey said it's more than this. I was really wondering.

"Cheers for legality!" Bon said and raised a glass of wine.

Most of us drink but Eion the "whatsoever killjoy" just take a one shot. I don't know why but kuya Grey said na umiinom naman daw siya. He's just watching us enjoying the liquor.  I glanced at him and he just raised an eyebrow. "Sungit" I said and he flickered his fingers to my forehead. "You're drunk. Stop that." he said and grab the glass of wine to my hands. I pout at him and just watched him drink the liquor in the glass.
