WHEN A MAFIA BOSS MEETS STUPID GIRL

Chapter 80; Formal War

"Jezz, that was sobra for a show off." Ashley said as I come to approach them after playing piano on stage.

"But quite bold to make kanta, Asha ang galing galing mo!" Balak ko na sana magtampo but this girl never fail to boost my ego.

Sinalubong ako ng yakap ni Ashley.

"Congrats, Unnie!" Andrea greeted me as Travis gave a tight hug at I got shocked when he pulled me over and kissed my cheek.

"I knew it, Louie ikaw ang pinakatalented sa lahat." Saad ni Travis ng ilet go niya ako.

"If not for all of you guys, I will not have the courage to sing there." after composing myself isa isa ko silang pinasalamatan for being with me tonight.

"And of course, Xander for being so handsome tonight." Biro ko ng tapunan ng lingon si Xander.

Nagsmile lang siya at naginitiate ng toast for us.

"Cheers for a happy long night to go." Xander said as he raised his glass.

As if we are one team and without a que, we raised our glasses.

I have every reason to smile but not seeing him with us tonight make me sad inside.

"Aish! You're not suppose to cry tonight, Asha." Ashley said when she saw my face.

Pinilit kong ngumiti para itago ang kagustuhan kong makita si hambog.

"I think we're missing Torren, Louie .. nakita mo ba siya sa backstage?" tanong ni Celine

"God, Celine kahit kailan ka talaga. You're such a spoil for night!" Ashley rolled her eyes at her.

"Unnie, don't start a fight tonight, let's just enjoy." Pigil niyang sa dalawa ng akmang sasagot si Celine dito.

"Yeah, you're right." saad ni Ashley for surrendering to my glare. Oo, sinamaan ko siya ng tingin dahil alam ko namang hindi siya magpapatalo.

"Probably his with Belle." Casual kong sagot

"So what's next?" Tanong naman ni Thalia sa tabi ni Jin.

"In no time, we'll have to go back to prepare for the war?" Xander replied

"Excited na kong manalo ka tonight, Louie. Alam kong kayang kaya mong talunin si Belle." binigyan niya ko ng fighting hand sign habang naka-pout.

"Eh paano naman si Xander, Travis?" Travis gritted his teeth sa inis ng batukan siya ni Jin.

"Ano ba, Tanda! Bat ka ba nambabatok?!"

"Haha chill bro, paano si Louie lang ang pinagdadasal mong manalo, eh paano naman tong lover boy natin?" napangiti ako ng bigyan ng matalim na tingin ni Xander si Jin pagkatapos siyang tapikin nito sa balikat.

"Alam mo, Tanda given na yan. Either Xander or Torren lang yan." Napatango na lang ako kay Travis.

"So I guess, it's between Torren and Xander, right Louie?" singit ni Hiro aa tabi ni Ashley.

"Actually I don't really mind if we win or not. Gusto ko nalang matapos to." Walang interest kong sagot.

Sa totoo lang, kundi naman dahil sa makulit naming prof, hindi naman ako papayag na sumali dito. He just leave me no choice.

"Can you hear yourself, Asha?" Sinamaan ako ng tingin. "You'll let that Belle win? Come on, Asha! Hindi ko inimagine na sakanya ko ipapasa ang korona ko no! Over my dead gorgeous body!"

"What do you want me to do? Hindi naman ako ang judge dun." Tanong ko

"Arggh! Seriously? Are you really my friend?" Nagkibit balikat lang ako.
