"No, thanks I'll just have my breakfast outside" ilang araw na siyang gan'yan, nilulutuan ako ng breakfast at dinner pero madalas ko itong tanggihan "Please, even just for today?" he pleaded. I massaged my temple before going to the table. I saw a common breakfast food so I look at him when he sat in front of me.

"I know what I prepared today is different to what I usually cook every morning. I just want us to talk about how are lives going with a very simple breakfast. I like you. No, I want you rather. Autumn, I know what I did to you is so rude and unfathomable but I was just so jealous to Aaron and so mad when I dropped you to exklusiv" what the hell is he saying? Nagalit siya noong hinatid ako sana ay hindi siya nag presenta na ihatid ako at anong selos kay Aaron? Si Lyn ang gusto no'n. Wala namang nakaka selos sa aming dalawa, hindi pa nga kami seloso na siya tapos gano'n siya magalit sa'kin, paano nalang kung kami na? "Then you shouldn't have asked me to get inside of your car" sagot ko sabay subo ng bacon.

"I didn't know that you were going to party" I scoff, can't believe to what he just said "So, if I told you that I'm gonna party that time, hindi mo ako isasabay? You'll let me wait for a taxi in the middle of the night?"

"No, of course. I would still do what I did that time. I'm just mad because after you making me feel that you like me, you will flirt with Aaron and go party" I laugh when I remembere what he said to me that night, it all make sense now. I stood up after I ate and put my dishes on the sink to take a bath.

I brought all my things with me because I'm going to Savi's place. We decided to have an overnight, we can't do a girl's night out due to Rei's condition. I miss hanging out with them!

"What's wrong?" he asked. This is our last day in NYC and my flight tomorrow is exactly 8 am so I can't go back here just to get my things. I wanna answer him that but I chose not to. Even though I can see that he doesn't like what I'm doing he still helped me carrying my things and put it in the compartment of the taxi. "take care" he said before I can finally get inside of the taxi.

While heading to Savi's apartment I'm thinking if I should say yes to Khaly. Do I still like him? I'm not sure if I still do or maybe I'm just mad at him so I can't accept the fact the I love him.

"Oh my god!!! I love the idea!!!" Savi, shouted out of excitement. She stopped jumping when Jace entered the room with pizzas and beer cans. "Oh, wait I'll just get the gallon of juice for Rei, in the fridge" she excused herself to get the juice she bought for Rei.

Jace laugh her ass out when she saw 3 different gallons of juices that Savi bought for Rei. Savi is the most thoughtful among all of us so as what we expected, she would really consider giving you choices kaya tatlo ang binili niya para may choices si Rei.

Nag simula na mag patugtog ng party music si Savi pero kumontra naman agad si Jace "Ano Savannah walang pa-awat? Partyng party? Di ka nag sasawa halos 1-week straight ka nag paparty walang kasawaan?" kaya napatigil si Savi sa pag papatugtog. Si Jace talaga yung party girl sa amin lahat pero siya rin ang pinaka hands on "Wow! The great Jazel Grace is talking. Baka you forgot na I'm with you in that 1-week straight party? You talk like you didn't enjoy the guys, there ha?"

"Hinanapan din naman kita nung lasing kana ah?" kaya naman napangiwi si Savi na parang nandidiri sa ginawa ni Jace, they are always like that even when we're still in highschool. They will go to a nightclub illegally since, we're all still minor that time then, the next day ikekwento nila yung mga pinag gagawa nila.

"Wait, wait what's with the reaction Savannah? Ano ba ang nang yari?" Tanong ni Rei habang tumatawa. Habang nag tuturuan ang dalawa kung sinong mag ke kwento ay tumayo ako at kumuha ng Smirnoff, sinabay ko narin ang baso at juice para kay Rei.

"So, this is what happened that night. I was just drinking smoothly while Jace is already on the dance shaking her ass, and when she saw me watching her, she walks towards me then chug the four roses that I don't know where niya kinuha. She made me chug it too, so I did it many times it's masarap kase" she stop talking to laugh a bit.

"When she knows that I'm already drunk, she gave me shots of Jagger bomb and various drink. She really intended to make me drunk so it would be easy for her to give me a guy" Savi explained. Jace's face turned into red I don't know if it's because of the alcohol intake or lacking of oxygen, she's laughing so hard and I don't get why the fuck she's laughing. It's making me more curious

Binigay niya sa akin ang cellphone niya dahil hindi siya maka salita kakatawa, kaya kinuha ko 'to at pinlay ang video naka open na pag abot niya. It's Savannah making out. So, what's funny here? I'm already used to see her making out here and there. Pinag patuloy ko manood ng pakikipag halikan ni Savi at ng makita ko yung itsura ng guy alam ko na ba't natatawa si Jace kaya nakitawa narin ako. She's making out with a nerd looking guy, and it's not her type!

Buong gabi kaming nag tawanan, bumili pa sila ng hard drinks. Ayaw ko na nga sana uminom dahil maaga pa ang flight ko pero pinilit nila ako. "Bilisan niyo maiiwan na ako ng eroplano!!" pag mamadali ko sakanila dahil mga nag tutooth brush at nag haharutan pa. 'Di na sila nakaligo dahil 7:00 na dapat 30 mins before ando'n na ako, gano'n ako tuwing may flight gusto ko 1hr before andoon na. 'Di narin ako nakapag ayos masyado kaya naka sweatpants at over size na damit nalang ako.

"Simple ng japorms pero malaking 'Balenciaga' naka print sa shirt" pang aasar ni Jace na nag tatali ng buhok niya mas straight pa sa buhok ni Jessie J. "Divisoria lang 'to tanga!" sigaw ko kaya nag tawanan ang tatlo, alam nila na nahihiya akong inaasar ako about sa wealth ng family because I don't really want to brag about it. Hinatid nila ako sa airport habang mga naka pajama pa.

Tinawag na lahat lahat ang flight number namin pero 'di ko pa nakikita si Khaly, bahala nga siya kung malate siya. Mayaman naman 'yon kaya mag arkila ng eroplano. Pag pasok ko ay nilagay ko na sa taas ang back pack ko tapos ay sinuot ang wayfarers at neck pillow ko.

Nagising ako para mag cr pero nung asa cr na'ko ay occupied ito kaya nag hintay ako, nagulat ako nang makitang si Khaly ang nasa loob. Yumuko siya pag labas at nag lakad na pabalik ng seat niya. Problema niya? Parang kahapon lang ang lakas pa ng loob n'ya na asar asarin ako ah?

"Did I do something wrong?" tanong niya pag kaupo ko, umling lang ako bilang sagot dahil ayokong mag salita baka bad breath ako. Buong biyahe ay hindi na kami nag usap pag katapos no'n.

"Thank you for calling Swift fiber. This Autumn. How may I help you today?" sagot ko habang tinetext si Khaly, may importante kase akong sasabihin sakaniya.

Me:

Ms. Chelsey told me to tell you to message me if you are going to work to day or you're on your way here.

I lied because I don't know if I should ask him to tell me if he's already here, he might get the wrong idea.

"Sorry, I didn't get that. Could you repeat what you said, ma'am?" I asked the costumer because I didn't understand what she said.

"Has the price of your internet plan increased?"

"Recently, no. In fact we haven't change our rate for 3 years, now" hindi ko talaga sure kung 3 years pero kase nag babasa ako ng reply ni Khaly tapos sakto na naisip ko yung number 3 kaya ayon na lang.

Na stress ako sa caller na 'yon ang daming tanong nung tiningnan ko yung account exact amount lang naman pala yung binabayaran niya.

Naka ilang call narin ang nareceive ko nang nag text sa'kin si Khaly.

Khaly:

Please, tell Ms. Chelsea that I'm already inside the building now.

Inistop ko muna mag receive ng call at minadaling pumasok sa office ni Khaly. Natataranta ako, parang to na yata ang longest 2 minutes of my life!
