Bomb Tamer's Revival

Kabanata 03

"D-D-Dia...nne..."

Shit. This can't be happening, right? This can't be...

She's wearing a black turtle neck with a brown coat partnered with a black slacks. Her hair is now black and straight.

"D-Deo..."

My shoulder dropped the moment he mentioned my name. I sighed and reached for a pillow on the couch, which I then threw at him.

"Bobo mong gumanap!" inis kong sabi sa kanya.

Everyone in the room laughed in response to what I said, but Jordan almost fell to the floor, laughing hard. In an effort to slow my heart palpitations, I picked up my drink from the table and drank it. He got me there.

"It's just a prank, Deo," Jordan said while laughing so hard.

"A failed prank," I said, almost rolling my eyes.

"You can't say it failed. Kinabahan ka," tumatawang sabi rin ni Kent sa kanya.

Walang gana ko silang tinignan lahat. And Claust, who disguised himself as Dianne right now, got a death glare from me. Claust Imperial is Yshi's friend and Koichi's favorite member in the club. He specializes in disguising; it is his forte.

"How's my disguise? Do you like it?" he asked me as he slammed his body on the sofa.

"Who thought of this kind of prank?" I said, irritably.

"It's Koichi," Claust answered as he removed the silicon mask he was using. "I told him yesterday that I have a new choker device."

Saka niya bahagyang binaba ang turtle neck niyang suot para ipakita ang choker na gamit niya na nasa leeg niya ngayon. Inside that choker is a voice changer.

"Then he got this crazy idea to surprise you. He asked me to disguise myself as your girlfriend, Ate Dianne—"

"Former," I corrected him.

"Oh, sorry for that," he smirked. "I disguised as her to surprise you."

"He's really surprised," Nick grinned.

"Sayang hindi ko nakuhanan iyong itsura ng mukha mo!" tumatawa ring sabi ni Jordan.

"So, you knew this thing?" I asked them.

"Ah-huh!" si Jordan.

"Koichi informed me before leaving Meijico Park earlier. I told them as well," Razi said and smirked.

"Well, I have no idea! I thought that was true though," Akhi said, brows are furrowed.

"I'll just go to the bathroom to change," paalam sa amin ni Claust dahil nga nakapambabae pa siyang suot. May kung ano pa siyang pinindot sa damit niya dahilan para mawalan ng kurba ang katawan niya maging ang dibdib na pangbabae.

"He's this good," Akhi said in a low voice.

"Aren't you irritated when you're disguised as a woman?" Ryle curiously asked him.

"No, why would I be? I'm used to this," Claust answered and walked towards the comfort room to change.

Isa namang malalim na buntong-hininga ang pinakawalan ko nang makaalis na si Claust. The scene earlier gave me chills. I thought it was really Dianne. But when Claust spoke even though he was using a voice changer, I immediately recognized that it wasn't her. I know her a lot even the way she speaks, I memorized it all. So, they can't fool me easily. But if that's really Dianne earlier... I don't know what to do.

"You know what? I really don't have a say to your love towards Dianne. See? Nakilala mo agad na hindi si Dianne iyong kanina," sabi ni Jordan at kita ko ang pagkamangha niya roon.
