Alice's Pov
"Cole talaga!!" She shouted angrily.
"Kalma. Kiss lang naman 'yon." I says. It doesn't matter anyways.
"Kahit na! Alam mo ba 'yang cole na iyan? Siya yung sumubo sa pinagkainan ni coleen! 'Di mo ba alam kung gaano kahalaga sa akin iyon?! Tapos, kukuhanin ng cole na iyan yung first kiss ng baby coleen ko?" Pag-eeskandalo niya.
"Damn that cole, I'll make him pay!" She says as she slammed her table.
"Chill ka lang, si coleen lang naman 'yan." Rans gazed furiously at abby which made abby bit her lower lip.
"Anong gagawin mo? Susuntukin mo si cole?" I asked sarcastically.
Rans got an idea of what i said.
Crap, goodluck cole. Latom.
"Chill rans. Bata pa naman si coleen, 'di mo dapat pinoproblema yung first kiss niya." Rans rapidly gazed furiously at abby.
Kawawang abelaine.
"Come on rans, wag mo hayaang lamunin ka ng galit mo, 'di ka na bata." I preach her.
"Pero... Ugh! Fine! I guess I'll will remember this day. Pero 'di pa kami tapos ni rans." She clenched her fist. Abby laugh a bit.
I just eat my lunch. And laugh with them.

"Sheki, wala si sheki." Sela coldly replied.
"Alam mo ba kung saan ko mahahanap si sheki?" I asked.
"Sa bahay, diyan sa street na iyan. May makikita kang blue na bahay, then sa dulo ng kanto no'n kumanan ka. Tapos diretso ka lang kapag naka-20 streets ka na, liko ka pakaliwa. Then sunod, pagka-kaliwa mo, liko ka sa kanan. Sa unang eskinita ha? Tapos bilang ka ulit ng 5 eskinita. Liko ka sa kaliwa. Tapos kapag may nakita kang bahay na may kulang pulang gate yun na yun." She says while doing hand gestures.
I nodded at her as a response.
I rent a bike just to save money. I need to save money 'cos i have a kid. A childish kid, maarte pa sa pagkain.
I memorized all the direction to sheki's house.
I see many red gates. Which one is sheki's house?
I remembered something... In the dream. Maybe i can find clues to the island, the dream island.
When i was thinking i forgot that im in the middle of the road so i parked my bike in the side of the road.
All i see was yellow flower. Sheki have flowers on her hair when we first meet so maybe.... She loves flowers?
I looked at the houses one by one. At sa lahat ng may red gate, yung nasa kanan na iyon na may mga orchids at mga tanim.
I guess its the right house.
I pull my bike all over to the house, i knocked on the gate 3 times befor saying 'tao po!'
A young girl walk outside to come for me. And i guesse, she's 7 years old.
"Sino po.... Kayo?" The girl shyly asked, i smiled at her before i speak.
"Im ate alice, andiyan ba si ate sheki mo?" I genuinely smiled at her, medyo lumiwanag naman ang mukha nito kaya nakahinga ako ng maluwag.
"At the bathroom, pasok ka po." The girl smiled at me.
"Kaibigan ka po ba niya po?" She asked politely.
"Nope, not really. But were closed," i replied. He smiled at me before he talk.
"Should i get you some drinks?" She asked.
"Ah.. Hindi na, btw what's your name?" I asked.
"Im shayde! Pronounced as shey-di!" She cheerfully said. .
What a weird name...
"Why shayde? May meaning ba yang pangalan mo?" I asked.
"I don't know either, but my mom's name is sheena and my dad's name is russ," she answered.
Medyo nalito ako dun ah, anong connect ba't naging shayde?
"Uh, is your sister done?" I ask.
"Why can just stood up and go to the bathroom and guess what's the answer?" My face suddenly turned red. She just laugh and leave.
"Grabe naman yung batang 'yon. Wew." I let out a heavy breath and put some powders on.
30 minutes later,
I heard some footstep coming to me. I lean to front and startled when i see sheki is in front of me.
She's seating in the couch wearing white blouse paired with maong pants.
"Saan ka pupunta?" I curiously asked.
"I have a meet-up with my family this week, kasama ko si shayde. Kung gusto... Sama ka?" She asked while scratching his neck.
"Sure, saan ba?" Tanong ko.
"Sa maynila, sama ka?"
"Sure,"
