Rianne's POV
"Shit. I'm sorry."
Si Kio Salvatore, lampa? Heh. RusticXI's one of the most powerful all-men gang dito sa bansa, and he's their vice captain. Tapos, lampa? Tss. What is he doing here, anyway?
Dahil hindi naman ako nakaayos bilang Young Demonise dito sa school ay sure akong hindi niya ako nakilala.
Kinuha ko ang tissue sa bulsa ko at pinunas ito sa parte ng uniform kong natapunan niya. Dammit. Pati medyas ko ang lagkit. I need to remove them as soon as possible.
"Psh. It's alright," sabi ko.
"Mauna na ako. I really am sorry," aniya at nagmamadaling umalis na tila may hinahabol.
Ugh. Madapa ka sana.
"Wow. I always watch their gang fight videos on Youtube, pero ang gwapo pala talaga ni Kio sa personal?" I mentally facepalmed as soon as I heard Nasha.
"Didn't you say you'd wait for me in the car?" tanong ko at nagsimulang maglakad.
"Buti na lang pala ay hindi! Nakita ko pa si Kio," she giggled, even blushing.
"Nag-basketball lang boyfriend mo, pinagpalit mo na kaagad?"
She grimaced at me. "This is just me acknowledging someone's good-looking face!"
I just shook my head and let her say her excuses.
Habang dumadada siya ay iniabot ko na sa kanya ang pinakuha niyang notebook. "Should I even ask kung bakit mo pinakuha sa akin 'yan—"
Hindi ko pa natatapos ang sasabihin ko ay sumagot na siya.
"Nope. Don't even ask," aniya.
"Sabi ko nga."
Pagka-uwi, nakapag-ayos na ako't lahat nang tumunog ang nakaririnding ringtone ng phone ko. Kinuha ko ito at bumungad ang litrato ni Jillianne sa aking screen.
Jillianne Calling...
Hmm, I wonder what this is about. I answered the call to end the questions popping in my mind.
"What is it?"
"Ikatlo. We got leads regarding Lloyd's location," sagot nito sa akin.
Huh, that was fast. As expected from Julia and Jillianne. "Accuracy and feasibility of taking immediate action?"
"Confirmative and easy peasy. We can do it later at midnight," she beamed.
I smirked. "It's playtime, then."
"You betcha!" tawa niya. "Also pala, may 10:00 PM meeting daw sa GU bukas. Streets are saying attendance is required."
Huh?
"Kinda sketchy. Bakit daw?"
"Dunno. Are we going?"
"Tsk," sagot ko. "It seems we have no choice anyway."
"Great! See you later and tomorrow, then. Bye, bitch!" litaw sa kanyang boses ang kasabikan dahil sa pagpayag ko. Anong meron sa meeting at bakit gusto nilang pumunta?
I just set aside my thoughts and ended the call.

Nang sumapit ang alas dos ng umaga ay naghanda na ako. Messy bun and dark clothes to steer clear of attention... make-up and accessories... just the usual.
"Nash," pagtawag ko.
"Go on, Brooha. Just do your thing," she said and chuckled. Ni-hindi niya na ako nilingon pa't nagpatuloy lang siya sa kanyang pagbabasa.
