Sheena's POV




My friends and I got into the University we dreamed about. Masaya naman ako with my College life pero ibang iba na pala talaga compared to High School. Ang daming requirements, ang daming quizzes, ang daming kailangang isipin, at ang daming maaasim sa campus. 




Through countless promises that we'll not end up getting into an accident and ending up in the hospital, my  dad finally gave me my car and I got my license too. No more teenage sneaking out and illegal driving late at night for me and for my friends. 




Speaking of driving, Colet is the one driving my car while I am sitting nervously in the passenger seat, Maloi and Mikha in the backseat with Gwen and I's cat, Nael. Today is Stacey and Gweneth's graduation day and of course, being the proudest girlfriend that I am, I have a little surprise for her. 




Disappointment gnawed at me. Sobrang lala ng traffic sa Manila, swertehan nalang kapag nakarating kami on time. Ang tagal naman kasi maligo ni Maloi, kinailangan pa namin siyang antayin. I yearned to be there, cheering my sunshine girl on, celebrating her years of hard work. 




"Col, bilisan mo naman!" I protested while fixing my hair. I glanced at my friends at the backseat, only to see Mikha sleeping again and Maloi writing something. 




Nagulat ako nang biglang itabi ni Colet 'yong sasakyan ko. She turned off the engine and looked at me with her sharp eyes. "Oh! Bumaba ka diyan at ikaw ang magdrive. Ang aga aga pinapainit mo lalo ulo ko. Kung hindi ka sana reklamo nang reklamo, hindi lumalala traffic ng Pinas!" she said. 




Nagising pa si Mikha dahil sa sinabi ni Colet. I heard small giggles at the back. 




"Ah .. ano, Col, ikaw nalang. Sabi ko nga I'll keep my mouth shut na." I said with a low voice. 




Napindot na naman si Anger. 




I was focusing on the road when someone poked me. When I looked at the person, I saw Maloi smiling sheepishly. "Do you think Gwen will like your surprise?" she asked. 




"I don't know. I literally bought the biggest bouquet in the flower shop, ewan ko nalang kung hindi siya matuwa. Center of attraction siya sa gagawin ko." pagmamayabang ko pa sa kanila.
