Hey guys I hope you enjoy reading this chapter!
In this part by the way guys it has been two months na since the first day of classes started ;)
Alex's POV
Wednesday na ngayon ang ikatlong araw nang pagtulong namin kay Walter he wanted everything to be perfect on the day he'll ask her if he can court her and one of the reasons why Andy came here a week early was because of this tutulong din sya kay Walter she did all her tasks in school in advance para makatulong sya kay Walter.
Nandito kami tambayan para di mahalata ni Angelica ang gingawa namin Andy always distracts her katulad noong Monday
FLASHBACK
Monday
Today is the first day of our meeting para sa OPLAN: A&W (ligaw edition) our classes just ended nandito na kami sa parking
"Hey guys" sabi ni Andy
"Uy Andy ba't ka nandito?"
"Oh I'm here to ask Angelica if she wants to accompany me to a fashion show tonight a famous designer here in Manila asked em to be their guest I could bring a friend din daw so Angelica how does that sound?" Andy asked Angelica
"I uhm guys okay lang ba?" halatang nag dadalawang isip na tanong ni Angelica
"Okay lang naman that maganda din since yan para girls bonding" sabi ni Leandro
END OF FLASH BACK
So ayun sumama talaga si ANgelica kay Andy today naman they were going to the grand opening of a cafe owned by Andy's batchmate
May advantages din naman pala talaga ang paggigng business woman nang pinsan ko
"So may venue na, and ballons" sabi ni Walter
"We only lack flowers, banner, and oh by the way kami na bahala sa music I can play the piano, si Leandro sa violin, at si Christian ang kakanta" malapit na talaga kaming matapos sa mga kailangan namin then we can start decorating
"Okay so sa flowers may kilala si Andy sa banner naman Andy and I can do it" Leandro said while playing a certain game on his phone
"Stacey can you design her dress?" tanong ni Walter
"Ba't ba hindi nalang sya ang gumawa nang lahat she knows alot of people naman diba" Stacey said in a bitchy tone
"Will you just fucking co-operate and stop being bitter?" naiirita na talga si Leandro kay Stacey
Stacey just rolled her eyes
"Fine so I'll design her dress mamaya then It'll be ready on Friday"
I started writing all the details and the important things we needed to do, umabot kami nang three hours since may project din kami na ginawa ni Leandro it was 9 in the evening when I saw Andy's car parked outside lumabas sya mula sa sasakyan nya at pumasok sa resto ko
"Close na kami wala nang pagkain" sabi ko tumatawa na ako deep inside pero I made my face look serious
"Alex ipagluto mo ako I want bacon and rice tapos cheese on toooop sigeeee na pleaseeee" parang bata talaga tong pinsan ko napailing nalang ako
"Ipagluto mo na yan ako din I want bacon and garlic rice with cheese on top samahan mo na din nang chocolate shake"
I rolled my eyes "Masusunod po kamahalan" pumunta na ako sa kitchen at nagsimulang mag luto
I finished cooking after 15 minutes
"O ito napo sir at ma'am may mocha frappe ka din Ate" I placed their food on the table
"Yeyyyy kain naaaaaa!" sigaw ni Andy at nagsimula na silang kumain ni Leandro ako naman I drank another bottle of mountain dew
"hinay hinay naman Andy, pinapabayaan ka ba ni Dalia doon sa NYC?" nagtatakang tanong ni Leandro napatawa naman ako sa tanong ni Leandro
"We always eat sa mga fancy resto minsan sa fastfood di na kami nagluluto that's why I miss the food Alex cooks as well as the food my mom cooks"
I know she's been through a lot sa New York noong first year nya nga doon everytime she called me she would breakdown she had many problems sa business nya, sa studies nya, and she also had a hard time adjusting to almost everything in New York aside from that her heart was broken by the first man she entrusted her heart with.
"Ba't ka ganyan maka tingin pffft parang naytime iiyak ka na HAHAHAHA" tumawa si Andy nang tumawa hanggang sa nabulunan sya binigyan naman sya ni Leandro nang tubig at sinermonan sya "Yan kasi tawa nang tawa habang kumakain kaya ayan nabulunan ka"
"Ihhhh si Alex naman kasi eh parang timang tumitingin sa akin parang iiyak anytime!" tumawa na naman si Andy
"I just pity you insan alam ko naman na halos isang taon kang umiiyak while we skype" napatigil naman sa pagkain si Andy at Leandro
"Nah its been two years I'm fine" nag-iwas nang tingin si Andy
"Are you really fine?" Andy instantly changed the topic "I'm now close with Angelica she's really simple and my guts tell me that she has feelings for Walter din"
"How can you say na she has feelings for Walter?" tanong ko
"Soooo earlier"
Flashback
"So sa apat sino ang pinaka close mo at ang unang nakilala mo?" Angelica and I are currently here in a coffee shop we just finished shoppping for bags and books we bought some tops, bottoms, and make up pero mas madami pa din ang bags at books na binili namin I really like her she's simple tapos wala syang arte we both love bags and books din
"Walter sya ang pinakaunang nakilala ko and I'm also close with him nung first day nga inaway ako nang isang babaeng obsessed sa kanya" natawa naman ako sa sinabi nya
"typical Walter Mr. Friendship talaga yun and madaming may gusto dun kasi napaka Mr. Friendship he's snob with maarte girls" nag high five naman kami
"So is he courting you?" tanong ko I shouldn't be obvious so yun nalang ang tinanong ko I drank my mocha frape
"Nope we're just friends my parents asked the same question and I hear my dad saying "sayang" when I said no dad wanted a son pero di na pwede since mama can't have a baby anymore dahil baka mamatay daw sya I'm a miracle baby kasi baka that's why he's really fond with Walter he's a great guy din naman and by the way can I ask a question?"
"Oo naman basta wag lang tungkol sa Math ha" nagbibirong sabi ko pero it was kinda true din naman I hated Math for me Math is a Mental Abuse To Humans
"HAHAHA baliw anyways how did you know na may gusto ka na pala kay Christian before? Uhm nevermind I should have never asked that" nagulat naman ako sa tanong nya
"Ano ka ba okay lang naman so you asked me how I knew I liked Christian diba? she nodded my heart would go wild when he did sweet things for me like driving me home, driving me to my appointments, bringing me food especially matcha milktea favorite ko yun eh kaya di talaga ako maka tanggi tapos aside from that he courted me for five or six months din before everyday may surprise sya minsan chocolates nilalagay nya sa desk ko tapos maypa note pa minsan may kasaman bulaklak na pinitas nya sa garden nang school, there was this one time nga he made this- I showed her my necklace its a half heart resin necklace that he made yung left side na sa kanya habang itong right naman na sa akin he geave this to me and it was that time that I said yes to him kaya simple lang I knew I liked him since my heart would always go wild when he came near me, pero honestly I don't know basta alam ko lang na I was willing to risk everything for him" everything I said was true I sighed to be honest masakit pa din I forgive him pero hindi ko pa din makalimutan ang ginawa nyang kagaguhan
"I think I really like Walter" tulala na si Angelica nagulat naman ako Walter is really a lucky bastard
"Sigurado ka na ba?" I asked her
"Yep I just made sure syempre I couldn't ask my mom she would ask why I'm asking 'bout those stuff so I asked you sigurdo na talaga ako woah I can't believe I like Walter"
End of Flashback
"So yeah she said that so therefore I conclude hindi mahihirapan si Walter sa OPLAN A&W her parents adore him and she likes him ghod I'm so excited malapit na ang friday so I also planned na magpapa fireworks ako if she says yes" Andy was done eating gulat na gulat naman kami ni Leandro sa sinabi nya
"We gotta tell Walter" Andy grabbed Leandro's phne
"Nope you can't tell him pahirapan nyo naman ang kaibigan nyo" she rolled her eyes
"Fine I wanna get him back for punching me remind me to buy you matcha milktea and sour cream fries on friday smarty" sabi ni Leandro
"YEYYYY MILKTEA AND FRIES!!!!!!!!" nagtatalon si Andy halatang sobrang excited napailing naman si Leandro but I noticed he was smiling
"Si Stacey at Angelica ang pagsamahin mo bukas Andy and I will prepare the venue tomorrow the teacher on friday that I'll be absent I did the ppt and the research kanina kasi puro ka ML so you'll do the presentation I'll buy her milktea and fries as well dahil baka kapag hindi ko binilhan yun she'll throw a tantrum alam mo na naman yung pinsansan mong yon she looks tough sa ibang tao pero she's a a child trapped in a woman's body" tumatawa na sabi ni Leandro
"Noted I'll text Stacey" I did she sent a reply after a minute with a letter "k"
I cleaned my resto si Leandro na ang nag hatid kay Andy pauwi I actually sense somethin fishy sa dalawang yun I went home and slept
End of Alex's POV
FRIDAY
Leandro's POV
I was on my way to Smarty's house it was 8:00 am alam kong tulog pa sya so I was planning to take her out for breakfast then I'll take her to the mall and buy her new books and bags tapos we'll go to the arcade then we could watch a movie eat fries and drink milktea tapos we'll go to the venue together kami kasi dalawa ang hahawak sa camera we would film everything Stacey made sure na may mic na naka attach sa dress ni Angelica nang di nya napapansin na may mic sa suot nya I arrived at Smarty's house pero nagulat ako nang nakita ko ang sasakyan ni Christian doon she's staying in her lolo's house pero si lolo I'm sure he'll be at work at this hour her lolo adores me we have a lot of similarities I went inside their house and saw Christian kneeling and hugging Andy while crying
"Andy please give me a chance I'm so sorry" umiiyak si Christian it was my first time seeing him do this
I never expected Christian to do this instead of confronting them I chose to hide behind the door of their living room
"Christian please tama na you have Stacey back already don't make things harder for me please pagod na pagod na ako" Andy tried getting Christian off her alam kong nasasaktan pa din sya and I want to do eveything just to take that pain
"Andy no please don't do this no no no please no" I couldn't take it I went to Christian and made him stand up
"Chris please just go please maawa ka naman kay Andy I know that this is hard for the both of you" Christian looked at me with pain in his eyes I asked one of their helps to accompany Christian outside
Andy was now crying I made her sit down "Leandro pagod na pagod na din ako I'm so tired of crying I just wanna escape kaya nga ako pumunta nang New York diba to escape from this pero it seems like fate keeps bringing me back here" I hugged her
"Would you want us to spend the day let's order milktea and fries tapos manood nalang tayo nang netflix here tapos we'll just go to the venue mamaya?" tanong ko sa kanya she just nodded
some people might think that I'm inlove with her pero the real reason behind my kindness towards Andy is because she's my niece may kapatid ang lolo nya he died last year and that brother of Andy's lolo happens to be my real dad and my aunt mama's ate is my real mom they're both dead she was a mistress actually she killed herself when I was six I actually didn't get mad at my parents for not telling me I knew they had their reasons
"I'm still not calling you tito, Leandro Tomas" napatawa naman ako she went up to take a bath while I was going to play xbox while waiting for her
When she finished taking a bath I ordered garlic parmesan chicken, pizza, and carbonara for our lunch when the food arrived we ate and watched its okay to not be okay we were currently on that episode when Soo ye jin went to the facility and tlked 'bout her story when Andy poked me I looked at her she had a big smile on her face
"What? You look creepy stop that" She really looked creepy parang batang kumakain nang tao sa horror movies
"Order milktea and frieeeeees you promiseeeeed" she whined like a kid
I looked at my phone kaya pala gutom na naman si madam it was already three and by five dapat nandoon na kami sa venue
"okay okay wait stop whining para kang bata its like I'm baby-sitting you" she giggled
"ihhhh order ka naaaaa" pangungulit nya
"kung di lang kita pamangkin matagal na kitang hinulog sa ilog" umiling nalang ko I ordered matcha milktea for her and taro for me tapos I ordered a bucket of fries
when our order came we watched again when it was 4:10 we stopped watching and prepared ourselves for the special event tonight
I was currently driving to the private beach resort of Andy's lolo good thing hindi traffic kaya in less than 10 minutes we arrived at the venue nandoon na si Alex, Stacey, and Christian pumunta na kami sa kanila and started to add more decoration while Alex prepared the food
Walter's POV

"Gago baliw HAHAHAHA tara na nga" hinila na nya ako papunta sa classroom natulala naman ako habang tumatakbo kami sa hallway naririnig ko na nga ang tibok nang puso ko damn nakakabading mang aminin pero while she's holding my hands kinikilig talaga ako
When we reached our classroom nandoon na si Alex at Christian, Alex was reading his presentation habang si Christian naman tulala pero Leandro wasn't around
"Anong nangyari dyan?" Angelica asked Alex

Our presentation went well and Mrs. Angeles is currently announcing the grades we got for our reporting
"Garcia & Matthews 98 minus 2 points kasi wala si Mr. Matthews so 96"
"Tangina naman oh" mura ni Ales
"Were you saying something Mr. Garcia" taas kilay na tanong ni Mrs. Angeles

I went to the main gate since she was there
"Kaninong party ba tayo pupunta? sabi kasi ni mommy may party daw tayong pupuntahan and I must be at home by 10 daw" she asked me
She looks so gorgeous she was wearing a red dress that was an inch or two below her knee yung lower part was made with lace with silk underneath tapos yung taas naman may sleeves it's so perfect may light make up din sya her hair's curled she looks so damn perfect
"Secret" I smiled and continued driving

I nervously asked her
She looks shocked
"Huy Angelica sumagot ka naman" Andy said using Leandro's mic they finished performing natatawang binawi naman ni Leandro ang mic
"Sure ka tinanong mo si daddy at mommy di ka natakot?" gulat na tanong nya
"Yep tito told me the decision was yours to make" I said my hands still nervously shaking
