Enzo's POV

May mga bagay talagang hindi inaasahan, may mga bagay na mabibigla ka na lang at may mga bagay na hindi mo inaakala.

Akala ko iyon na ang huling pagkakataon na makikita ko siya pero nagkamali ako, grabe ang pagkabaliw ko sa kaniya.

Ganito ba talaga kapag nahulog ka na?

Hindi ko inaasahan na makikita at makikilala ko siya. Nabigla ako nang muli kaming magkita at ang inaakala ko'y hindi ko na makikita? Ayun nililigawan ko na ngayon.

I'm staring at her right now, reminiscing where it all started.

Flashback

"Mom! I don't want to go!" iritang sabi ko kay Mommy. She's forcing me to come with them in a party.

I know it's all for business so why bother to come? I don't even care what is it and what kind of party is it.

"Your friends will be there!" aniya pa.

"Mom, I just don't really want to go"

"Malay mo naman anak, doon mo na makilala ang the one mo!" pamimilit niya pa rin na parang bata.

"Mommy! I don't care! I don't have time for that!" asik ko.

"Sus! Kunwari pa!" aniya. She stood up and let a heavy sigh "If you're not coming with us you're grounded. 500 allowance, no cars, no night outs with Naftali, Brent and Josh! You're not allowed to go outside of this room, your breakfast, lunch, dinner wi--"

"Okay fine!" nawawalang pag-asa'ng sambit ko. She giggled. "Okay, honey. We'll wait for you downstairs. You can wear whatever you want" she said before she left.

Padabog akong pumasok sa bathroom at naligo.

End of Flashback

"Oh tapos, ano nangyari?" natatawang tanong ni Ayumi. I was telling her right now what is happened years ago.

I continued telling her the story.

Flashback

I'm just wearing a pastel blue shirt partnered with my white pants and white shoes, I also wear a denim jacket.

"You're so handsome, anak!" bati ni Mommy. I rolled my eyes.

"Naku, ang sungit naman talaga ng kapatid ko" Ate Erica pinch my right cheek for me to look at her madly.

"Alam mo, pumapangit ka kapag nagsusungit ka!" aniya pa.

"Kaya wala kang boyfriend dahil sa ugali mo eh" pang-aasar ko.

"Shut up! Respect your ate!" maarteng aniya. I just let a little chuckle. When we're on our way to place that I don't know, I'm just scrolling to my feed.

Naftali: Yo, bros! We're at Perez Residence, for sure they invited you all?

I stopped scrolling when Naftali's message pop-up.

Brent: Actually, we're on our way there.

Joshua: We're parking the car now.

Nasundan iyon ng message ni Brent at Joshua. I typed a message and sent it to them.

Me: We're on our way too, maybe? I don't know.

Brent: what?!

Me: My parents are talking about party something, but I didn't bother to ask what kind of party is it.

Joshua: wala ka talagang pake

I just rolled my eyes and turn off my phone. Maya-maya lang ay nakarating na kami sa magarbo at magandang bahay.

But I must say, sa isang magandang Mansion. This is so big! It's full of class. White and cream lang ang color ng bahay pero hindi nagmumukhang plain.

Hindi katulad ng iba na akala mo ay walang nakatirang ibang tao.

Pagpasok namin ay maingay at maraming tao agad ang sumalubong sa amin. "Yo bro!" umakbay ka agad si Naftali sa akin nang makita niya ako.

Maya-maya pa ay dumating na sina Josh, nakaupo na kami ngayon at inaantay na lang na magstart ang paty.

Ate Erica was here with us, same as sa mga kapatid nina Brent. In the other table was our parents.

Habang nag-iintay I saw a couple in the table beside us, they were talking and I think Ate Erica knows some of them because I saw that she was talking to a guy earlier na kasama nila ngayon sa table na iyon.

They're pretty and  they looks rich but only one caught my attention.

"Oh really?" Ayumi commented.

"Yeah, and it was you." I answered.

"Oh, okay continue" she said. I sigh.

She looks soft, she's pretty and her charisma is different from the other girls. The way she laugh it's so cute.

"And I didn't notice that I was smiling while looking at you that time." I said.

She giggled. "Grabe, I didn't know na gan'yan pala talaga ang epekto ko sa'yo ah!" aniya pa habang tumatawa.

I chuckle a bit. "Okay, continue" she insist.

"Hey" sumama ang timpla ng mukha ko nang may lumapit na lalaki sa kaniya, he kissed Ayumi in the forehead and he encircled his arms to her waist.

"Yo, bro. what's your problem?" I look at Brent, I just shrugged. The party started. I was about to go to the bathroom nang may makabangga ako.

"Oh, I'm sorry!" she exclaimed. "No, it's okay" nasabi ko. Inangat niya ang tingin niya at ngumiti siya ng napakatamis.

Parang tumigil ang mundo ko sa ngiti niya, napatitig ako sa kaniyang mata na kumikinang, napaka ganda niya sa malapitan.

"Oh, hi. You are from Martinez Family right?" she talk with class and she talk like a businesswoman.

"Ah yeah, you are?" kunwaring sambit ko.

"I'm Ayumi Perez, from Perez Family." she smiled, she even offered her hand to me. I accept it in a nice way.

Her hand was too soft, parang nakakahiyang hawakan. "Hope you're having fun. Nice to meet you, ah?" she said.

"En-"

"Ayumi!" naputol ang sasabihin ko nang may babaeng tumawag sa kaniya, napabitaw ako sa hand shake namin.

Maganda rin ang babaeng tumawag sa kaniya pero mas maganda pa rin siya para sa akin. "Sophie, wait!" she said.

"It was nice to meet you" baling nito sa'kin bago nagmadaling sumama sa kaibigan niya siguro o pinsan. I don't know.

"Ah so ikaw pala 'yung nakabangga ko no'n?" aniya.

"Yap" sagot ko.

"Buti natandaan mo pa ako 'no? Ako kasi hindi na" tawa pa niya.

"Sino ba namang makakalimot sa ganda mong 'yan?" I smirk.

"Sus! Bolero!" asik niya kaya naman ay sabay kaming natawa.

"Okay, continue" aniya ulit.

"Bro, anong nangyari bakit gan'yan ang ngiti mo?" bungad ni Josh sa akin.

"Wala naman" sambit ko at bumalik na sa pagiging poker face, pero ang kaloob-looba ko ay masaya.

Ayumi Perez.. What a nice name, bagay sa kaniya ang apelyido ko hehe..
