"Here na lang." Rei handed me an ivory colored dress. We're in one of their family's boutique looking for a dress for granmama's party. Bukas na kasi iyon. Isang linggo na rin ang nakalipas mula noong libing ni Shy.

Nai-kwento na sa'kin ni mamangs na uuwi raw iyong mga pinsan namin para sa birthday ni granmama. Pati nga yata si Promise e.

"Ano ba naman kasi. Lagi nalang 'no' ang sagot mo sa lahat ng isinukat ko. Magaganda naman lahat." Reklamo ko at napasalampak sa sofa.

"Kasi nga, I want something na may 'wow factor' the kind of dress that would make people take a second look!" She squealed. "You should look your best because I heard that, that brat is coming with Lincoln."

"E ano naman? Magjowa naman sila." Halos ibulong ko na ang huling sinabi ko dahil sa sobrang kapaitan ng pagkakasabi ko.

"Oh gosh! Don't pretend like your not nasasaktan kasi you know, I know you too well so yeah." She flipped her hair and turned her back. Naghanap ulit siya ng damit na pwede kong suotin.

Halos isang dosenang damit na yata ang naisukat ko pero ni isa ay walang nagustuhan si Rei.

It's either she would say it's too simple or it's too flashy. Minsan naman 'it's so not you'. Ako ang napapagod sa paulit-ulit na pagsusukat. Panay pa naman ang 'here' niya at 'try this' tulad ngayon.

"Here make sukat these. I swear this will fit you perfectly!" She squealed while handing me three dresses.

A simple body con navy blue colored dress, a red long sleeved sequined dress, and what caught my attention is a cream colored sweetheart cut dress. It had a low neckline and the length reached the floor. Iyon ang una kong sinukat.

"Ano pwede na?" I asked Rei who's back was at me. May kausap itong staff.

"O M Gosh, See!" Nanlaki ang mga mata nito.

"Bakit? Pangit ba? Kaya ayoko sa bestida e magsu-suit nalang ako." Ani ko, hindi rin naman ako komportable sa slit na meron ito. Tatalikod na sana parang magbihis nang hawakan ni Rei ang braso ko.

"Na-uh! First it's 'dress' not 'bestida' okay? and second, damn girl! You look A plus amazing!" Pumapalakpak pa ito na parang bata sa sobrang tuwa.

"Seryoso ka? Makikita na yata ang boobs ko sa damit na ito."

"Exactly! Show them what you've got! Not all girls may ganiyang boobs so put that in your mind, okay?" She pulled the dress down a little. Maagap ko naman ito hinawakan dahil pakiramdam ko ay hinuhubaran ako.

Hindi naman iyon malaki, sakto lang..

I am not a fan of dresses, napapasout lang ako kung kailangan talaga. But most of the time I go to events with my fine suits. Kahit sa opisina laging slacks ang sout ko at hindi pencil cut.

Ayoko rin kasing mabastos pero minsan dahil may mga taong sadyang bastos talaga kaya ayon nakakatikim ng sapak. Gago lang kasi. Hindi naman totoong hindi ka mababastos kung hindi ka magpapabastos. 'Pag may bastos mababastos ka talaga. The change shouldn't come from girls it should come from those perverted pigs who can't keep their hands to themselves.

"Baka naman mabastos na ako nito." I pulled the dress higher but I immediately stopped when I noticed the slit, that was also raising.

"Nope!" She said popping the 'P'. "I'm sure you'd punch them o kung hindi ikaw maybe your prince charming." She winked at me and giggled.

"Baliw ka ba?!" Pinanlakihan ko siya ng mga mata.

"Do I look baliw to you? I'm just helping you out." Lumapit siya sa akin na nakangisi. She held my breasts and that made me gasp. "Now show them your babies." She laughed while looking at my shocked expression.
