EXPECTING TWENTY

"CRESCENT MOON, always remind me of you. You're unreachable for me, and you're perfect on your own pace" he said, hindi agad ako nakapag salita. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang sasabihin ko! "You don't need to say anything, thank you for the gift. I like it so much!" he said.

I just nodded at him, feeling ko biglang lumiit ang space sa gitna naming dalawa! Hindi ko alam kung naka-destined ba o ano pero biglang bumagal ang ikot ng ferris wheel! Biglang gusto ko na lang pabilisin ang takbo nito!

"Ang ganda!" sabi ni Charm ng makababa kami, kami ata ang huling naka baba ng Ferris Wheel. Lumayo na agad ako kay Ashton at lumapit kanila Kenchie. After namin doon ay naisipan namin na kumain na lang ng dinner bago umuwi.

Sila na din ang pumili ng kakainan namin, ng makarating doon ay nakapatay na ang ilaw. Akala ko ay sarado na pero ng maka-pasok kami ay biglang bumukas ang ilaw. "Happy birthday!" all of us we're surprised!

Hindi lang si Ashton pati kami, Charlotte went to Ashton and give him a hug. Of course! The girlfriend will be here! At hindi ko din alam na masakit pa rin pala! Nakita ko ang paglingon sa akin ng mga kaibigan namin.

"Kailan ka pa naka-uwi?" tanong ni Ashton, kahit si Sapphire na katabi ay umalis doon. "Kaninang umaga lang, Tita told me your out with your friends. I was about to follow you in Sky ranch but I saw your stories and your with your friends" sabi ni Charlotte.

Humanap na kami ng pwesto naming magka-kaibigan at nakahiwalay ang pwesto nila Ashton at Charlotte sa amin. Pinagdugtong na lang namin ang mga lamesa para magkakasama kaming lahat maliban sa dalawa.

"Finley!" Charlotte greeted me and went to me, I don't want to be rude so I smiled at her too. "Congratulations! I saw your post, and you we're amazing!" Charlotte said, I gave her a small smile.

"Thank you" I said.

Pati ang mga kaibigan namin ay naka masid lang sa amin. Naka-upo na sila, hindi ako maka-upo dahil naka kapit si Charlotte sa braso ko. "Ahm, join with us Fin. I want to catch some things with you, can you?" sabi ni Charlotte at inaya ako na doon umupo sa pwesto nila Ashton.

Nang lingunin ko yun ay nandoon na si Ashton naka-upo, nandoon ang cake na dala ni Charlotte para sa kanya. At halata namang for two lang yun, ayaw kong maki-singit sa kanila at mag mukhang tanga na nasasaktan doon!

But I don't know how to refuse Charlotte's offer, ayaw ko naman na maging rude pag umayaw ako. "Charlotte, Isha will be joining us. And besides, it was Ashton's day. Mas okay kung mag spent time kayo together, yung wala kayong kasamang iba. So? I suggest, sa amin na lang si Isha" Kenchie said.

Charlotte look at my friends and back to me, I gave her a smile. Hindi ko alam kung awkward smile ba yun or ano? Charlotte slowly letting go of my arms. "Okay, usap na lang tayo later?" sabi niya, tumango naman ako.

Umupo na ako sa tabi ni Kenchie at nakita ko naman na pumunta na si Charlotte sa pwesto niya. All of our friends was looking at me, I gave them an assuring smile that I am okay.

"I didn't like her" biglang sabi ni Sapphire ng kumakain na kami, siya lang ang nag-open ng topic tungkol sa dalawa. Sinamaan niya pa ng tingin ang pwesto ng dalawa, kaya nilingon ko yun.

I saw them talking while having romantic dinner, the cake was in the middle of their table. Charlotte was firm while eating her dinner, looks like they are talking something serious.

"Oh? Baka mapatay mo?" biro ni Francho kay Sapphire, binalik ko na lang ang tingin sa kinakain ko. "I just don't like her, I know and I'm sorry for saying this words..." sabi ni Sapphire at binalingan ako. She held my hand like her words are for me.
