Chapter 32 - Housewarming Party and a Punch

Chapter Thirty Two
"Housewarming Party and A Punch"
Daniel Rouge Gustilyo's Point of View

It actually took me days of persuading Theo para payagan niya akong papuntahin dito ang mga kaibigan ko. After we did another round tonight, he finally let out a deep sigh and told me. "I'll let them come here." He gave up.

Bigla naman akong nasayahan sa sinabi nito sa akin

"But." Hinto nito sa akin na nakangisi. "In one condition." He added. Nag-iba ang modo ko dahil sa sinabi nito. Knowing Theo, you can't persuade him that easily, if he gives up may kapalit.

"Ano 'yun?"

"You stop talking with Eric."

I rolled my eyes at him.

"Well that's fair enough." Ani ko sa kaniya at inayos ang sariling natulog. He leaned in closer to me para halikan ako sa leeg pababa naman sa likod ko.

"You're not even complaining about it?" Tanong niya sa akin.

"Bakit? Ano bang gusto mo, magreklamo ako sa'yo kasi ayaw mong kausapin ko si Eric?" I asked him. Umiling lamang ito sa akin at kinagat ako sa leeg. "Theo naman." I pouted at him. "You know I don't like Eric right?"

He just closed his eyes then nodded at me. "Good. I hope you bear that in mind."

...

I was happy to tell Ringo and the rest about the news. Agad naman silang pumunta sa bahay pagkasunod na araw. Ringo, Eric, Dylan and Cedric brought some gifts meanwhile Romeo didn't. I know he doesn't like me that much, o ganito lang talaga ang ugali ni Romeo.

But I'm glad he showed up though!

Nagpalinga-linga sila sa loob ng bahay at tiningnan ang laman nito. They even brought some snacks with them para kainin ngayong gabi sa bahay.

"Nasaan si Theo?" Tanong bigla ni Cedric sa akin.

That guy hid inside his room. He doesn't mingle with people he doesn't know. But today, I'm going to push him to talk to them. Sila-sila lang naman ah? Ba't nahihiya pa siyang makisalamuha sa kanila?

Naupo sina Romeo, Eric at Dylan sa sala at si Cedric naman at Ringo ay naghanda ng pagkain. "Just cook whatever you want diyan." Ani ko sa kanila. "Hahanapin ko lang si Theo, nagmumokmok kasi sa kwarto niya." I rolled my eyes atsaka naglakad na patungo sa kwarto nito.

I knocked on his door. "Hey." Ani ko rito nang pinagbuksan na niya ako. "Ayaw mo bang makilala sila?"

He squinted his eyes on me. "I already know them." And he leaned in to the wall at pinulupot ang kaniyang mga kamay.

"It won't hurt to talk to them Theo." Banta ko sa kaniya.

"Just enjoy the party. I'm fine being here." Rinig ko ang pagtatampo sa boses nito. Para 'tong bata kaya pinasok ko ang sarili ko sa loob ng kwarto nito.

"Why are you so introvert?" I yelled out of frustration  at naupo sa higaan nito.

"I just don't like talking to people that will just leave me in the end."
