Surprise

Cole's POV

"Yzabel?" Gulat na sabi ko.

"Cole? You're Cole right? Miho's friend?" Tanong niya kaya tumango ako.

"Yea, uhmm what are you doing here? I mean the last time na nakapagusap kami ni Miho is yung breakup nyo" sabi ko.

"She stayed in Japan, while Im here. Trying my best to heal" sabi niya.

"At talagang dito mo napili magheal??" Tanong ko sakanya sabay tawa ng mahina.

"No.. no.. besides napalapit na rin kayo saken and I hope walang ilangan you know akwardness" she said.

"No worries. Walang ganun" I smiled at her.

"Thank You Cole" she said.

"Drink??" I asked and she nodded kaya umupo kami dito sa counter.

"So saan ka nagsstay? May kakilala ka ba??" I asked.

"Sa hotel. Kakauwi ko palang naman" she said.

"Crazy idea. You want to stay on my house? I mean may guest room naman ako sa bahay and pretty much magisa lang ako dun" I suggest.

"Cole nakakahiya na" she said. I hold her hand to gave assurance na its okay.

"Its fine. Besides like you said noh naging malapit kana samin" I said.

"Thank you" nahihiya niyang sabi.

"Magisa ka lang ba? Baka gusto mo dun sa VIP lounge kasama samin nila ate Abby" I said.

"Ohh.. they're here also?" She asked.

"Yeah dinadamayan namin si ate Lara" I said and she looked confused.

"Dinadamayan? Sonething happened?" She asked on our way up.

"Well I didnt know if you heard but.. ate Brei died a year ago" panimula ko and she stopped and held my arm tight.

"What?! Really?! How?!" She looks confused and shock at the same time.

"Engine failure" maikli kong sabi.

"Condolence.." malumanay nyang sabi.

"Wag mo saken sabihin yan, kay ate Lara" I said and opened the door.

"Guys!! We have a guest!" I said kaya natigil sila sa mga ginagawa nila.

"Yzabel???" Sabay sabay nilang sabi.

"Uhm Hi? Okay lang ba makigulo sainyo?" Nahihiyang sabi niya.

"Oo naman noh! Tara upo ka!" Alok ni ate Abby.

"Thank you" she said at umupo sa tabi ko.

"Here" nagbukas ako ng isang bote at iniabot sakanya.

"Thank you coley" she said and smiled.

"So.. Yzabel. How's things between  you and Miho??" Ate Abby asked.

"Were good naman po its been long and we stayed as friends po" she said.

"Artista ka din pala noh? Like Dana?" Ecka said.

"Yes po. But not as big as ate Dana" she said.

"Pareho din yun" sabi ko kaya tumawa siya.

"Yzabel lika kanta tayo!!" Pag aya ni ate Alice.

"Nako ate nakakahiya" sabi nya.

"Ikaw pa nahiya samin! Wag kana mahiya!! Tara!!" Pagaya ni Gabb.

"Sige na! One song lang" sabi ko.

"Fine!" Sabi niya.

She got up and take the microphone from ate Alice, she choose a song "Style" by Taylor Swift. As she begun to sang I got nervous for a reason I didn't know.
