Queen Meets The Social Climbers
Nakaupo nalang kaming tatlo nila Celine and Alyssa in a bench while watching Aaron and Gab compete and try all the scariest rides there is at the amusement park.
Alyssa: Seriously guys, not one of them ever invited us to join.
Celine: Eh pano? Can you see them? They're in the heat of the moment. Parang tanga lang. Parang silang dalawa ang nag de-date.
Akhi: I know right? *sigh*
A while after I saw Cherry and Mackhoy pass us by so I called for them and nakita nila kaming tatlo so lumapit sila.
Cherry: Bessy! Andito karin pala!
Akhi: *stood up to greet her* Hi bessy. *stern voice*
Cherry: Ba't parang di ka masaya?
Akhi: *Sigh* It's a long story but before anything else, I'd like to introduce you to two of my new friends. *pointing at them* This is Alyssa and Celine.
Both of them stood up and when Cherry saw their outfits tumaas ang kilay nya.
Cherry: Oh hi. I'm Cherry. Akhi's bestfriend. *Eye roll*
Alyssa: Hi! Nice to meet-
Before she could finish nakita nya ang suot na shoes ni Cherry. She was wearing the exact same shoes a day before.
Alyssa: Where did you get that?
Cherry: Oh this? Haha gift sakin ng boyfriend ko. It's quite expensive. *sabay extend ng legs nya*
Alyssa: Celine, this is unacceptable!
Nakita naman ni Celine ang white blazer ni Cherry and she also has one that looks the same. So lumapit sya kay Cherry and she looked at her from head to toe.
Celine: *raised an eyebrow* Hindi na masama. I'm Celine nga pala. Hmmp! *sabay flip ng hair and lakad pabalik and then pose*
*Tarayan portion*
Cherry: Oh. Haha san mo naman napulot mga bago mong friends, I mean oh! san mo na meet?
Alyssa: Excuse me?! San banda sa imahe ng babaeng ito ang bestfriend mo Akhi?
Celine: Hay nako Lyssa chill. Alam mo naman we're like the trendiest women in the whole amusement park so naturally may mga ingeterang susulpot sa paligid.
Cherry: Yeah I know right? Sometimes nasa paligid, minsan kayo. Hahaha!
Celine: Minsan kami, madalas, ikaw. Hahaha! *Sabay appear kay Alyssa*
Cherry: Me? Yes I know MAGANDA ako. hahaha
Alyssa: Oh nagkalat na talaga ang mga bingi sa mundo ano Celine? Hahaha
Cherry: Yeszz I knerrr parang make up mo lang girl. Nagkalat. Hahaha
Kumunot ang noo ni Alyssa then she talked back
Alyssa: Nagkalat man ang make up ko sa paningin mo, maganda parin ako.
Cherry: Maganda ka man sa palagay mo, palagay mo lang yon. Ahahaha!
Celine: At pag hindi ka pa tumigil dyan, palagay ko malalagyan ng itim na eye shadow yang isang mata mo mula sa kamao ko!
Cherry: Subukan mong gawin yan, hindi lang eye shadow ang aabutin mo sakin, may blush on at lipstick ka pa! Maco-contour pa yang ilong mo magmumukhang basag.
Alyssa: Push mo yan day!
Akhi: Hepppp!!! Stooooopppp!!?!! Itigil nyo yan! Nakaka stress kayo ha?!
Then natigilan sila. Nagkatinginan lang kami for a moment. Nagsalita si Mhackoy
Mhackoy: You guys just met pero parang ang bigat ng dugo nyo sa isa't isa. This is an amusement park utang na loob this is not the place to cat fight.
Then napahiya silang tatlo.
Cherry: Hmmmp! Tama ka Mackhoy. This is a place to have fun. Not a place to dump some trash. Dapat nakalagay sa entrance "bawal magkalat dito" para walang pumasok na mukhang basura. Hahaha
Alyssa: Yeszz kaya dapat hindi ka nakapasok.
Celine: May pa expensive expensive pang nalalaman, yung akin nga sa ukay ko lang nabili. Chosera.
Cherry: Excuse me?! I don't buy clothes sa mga ka cheapang ukay ukay na yan.
Alyssa: Ha? Hindi ba? Akala ko nga manikin ka mula sa ukay ukay store hahaha.
Nagbuntong hininga si Cherry and then she spoke
Cherry: Tara na nga Mackhoy. Baka mahawa ako ng kabaduyan dito. *Sabay irap sa kanilang dalawa.*
Celine: Oh baduy daw Lyssa? Hahaha
Alyssa: Kakaloka ang ate mo. Sya nga yung mukhang matanda dito! bwahaha badudels.
Cherry: Oh no b*tch you do not cross that line!
Celine: Ay si lola nagalit? Hahaha
Alyssa: Sorry hindi kami napatol sa senior citizen! hahaha!
Cherry: Ahuh?! Senior citizen pala ha?
Ayun hindi na napigilan nanabunot na si Cherry at lumaban naman yung dalawa pero inawat namin sila ni Mackhoy. Sobrang punong puno na ako ng stress kaya napasigaw ako.
Akhi: Tama na!!!!!!!
Then natigilan sila at napatingin samin lahat ng tao sa paligid.
Akhi: Kung makapag away kayo parang wala kayong pinag aralan ha? Hindi nyo ba alam na may pinagdadaanan ako ngayon tapos ganyan pa kayo?! Like right now, I need some friends to comfort me! But if you're gonna be like this, I'd rather be alone!
Then nag walkout ako. I just had to get away from all of them.
Cherry: Bessy...!! *sabay tingin sa dalawang babae* Kasalanan nyo 'to eh!
Alyssa: Heller? The fault is mutual.
Celine: You're the bestfriend. You should've known he's got a big problem right now at isinantabi ang katarayan mo.
Mhackoy: Seriously?? If you guys are going to continue this, I'm just going to follow Akhi.
Then he did as he said.
Cherry: *sigh* Okay let's stop this bullshit.
Alyssa: Agreed!
Cherry: I just wanna know, anu bang nangyari dito?
Celine: Since pare pareho na tayong nag cool down, let's take a seat at ikukwento namin sa'yo mga kaganapan kanina.
Alyssa: Ay nako day maloloka ka.
And just like that, nagkasundo silang tatlo. I know right? I have that kind of effect on people. I draw them closer and make an even bigger circle of friends.

*Me somewhere in the amusement park with a few people*
Hindi ko na napigilan, naiyak nalang ako sa isang tabi. Remembering how upset Gab was and how Aaron is trying to ruin everything. It's just too much. Then someone tapped on my shoulder.
Mackhoy: Hey there.
Akhi: *sniff sniff* Oh Mhackoy. Pasensya na. Asan silang tatlo?
Mackhoy: I left them there. Pati ako nastress sa pinaggagawa nila. But enough about them or me. Are you okay?
Akhi: Can you tell? *sabay harap sa kanya*
Mackhoy: *sigh* well, sorry for asking. You're obviously not okay. Come with me. Let's sit somewhere on the grassy part right there overlooking the lake.
We did so. Magkatabi kami ni Mackhoy. I cried on his shoulder at inakbayan nya ako.
Akhi: Mackhoy I'm sorry about this.
Mackhoy: No worries. You know I'm always here for you. Right?
Akhi: Thanks.
Then he leaned his head over mine.
Mackhoy: You know I regret ever giving up on you so early. I mean actually I still have a chance noon. But I was too afraid to take a risk. If I had known your relationship with Gab would give you so much trouble, kung alam ko lang na paiiyakin ka nya ever since Audrey came around, Siguro hindi kita isinuko sa kanya.
Akhi: Mackhoy, matagal na yun and I think you made the right decision. I chose this. I love him and he loves me. This time kase it's my fault.
Mackhoy: Yeah. Just for the record, I love you too but I guess hanggang friends nalang talaga tayo kase mahal na mahal mo si Gab.
Akhi: How I wish madali lang magpalit ng feelings pero hindi eh. Thinking about it, I would have preferred to be with you. Then again I couldn't imagine my life now without Gab.
Mackhoy: *sigh* Love nga naman. Really mysterious and strange. I still haven't grasp the whole meaning of it. Anyway, care to tell me what happened?
Then I filled him in on all of the things that happened the past week about how Aaron messed up things for me at ang eksena kanina but I skipped the locker room thingy.
---
*Back at Cherry and the fashionistas*
Alyssa: So that's what happened kanina. Kakaloka diba?
Cherry: My gosh I mean Gab shouldn't have reacted like that. Para naman syang bata.
Celine: Inexplain ko na nga sa kanya, Image mga ganern kaso sabi nya kesyo "I almost died blah blah blah" nakaka antok.
Cherry: First time kase nagka third party sa side ni Akhi.
Alyssa: Wait, "sa side ni Akhi"? You mean nagkaron na ng third party sa side ni Gab?
Cherry: Well kinda. I was a big part of the solution so they have me to thank for.
Celine: You mean another guy?
Cherry: No! Woman. Babae from Gab's past.
Alyssa: Ayyy okay. Medyo may phobia na kami sa mga gwapong lalaki eh parang halos lahat sila mga bading.
Celine: And I'm guessing, yung kasama mo kanina? Was it Mackhoy? Paminta din yon ano?
Cherry: Actually yes. He's my cousin.
Alyssa: Sheeettt... Anu na nangyayari sa mundo.
Celine: Lyssa kung sumusuko ka na, humanap ka nalang ng pangit.
Alyssa: Over my dead body. Mas mabuti pang tumandang dalaga than to live a lifetime with an ugly guy.
Cherry: Nako girls what matters is what's on the inside. Aanhin mo ang gwapong puro sakit nang ulo ang ibinibigay sa'yo?
Celine: May hugot 'te?
Cherry: Actually medyo hindi kami good terms ni boyfie ngayon.
Alyssa: Oh that's sad. Well anyway, you mentioned binili ni bf mes ang shoes mo. Where exactly?
Cherry: Ah, sa ibang bansa. When he came home from france iniregalo nya sakin.
Celine: Ay syalan mayaman ang bf.
Alyssa: Pasensya ka na talaga kanina. Kase I have the same exact looking shoes and nabili ko lang sya sa ukay ukay for 450 pesos.
Cherry: Talaga? Ang mura naman?
Celine: I know right? Kahit yang blazer mo meron ako.
Cherry: Na iintriga ako sa ukay ukay na yan ha. It seems like they're selling good stuff.
Alyssa: Ahay nako I'm telling you it's paradise. Kung gusto mo sasamahan ka namin minsan.
Cherry: Umm... I'm not sure. I've never been to those places before.
Celine: Nako! Don't worry about the people around shopping there. Wapakels ang mga iyon at kung sakaling may pesteng judgemental na halamang dagat, kaming bahala sa'yo.
Cherry: Okay. Maybe I'll try it.
Just then natapos narin si Aaron at Gab sa paligsahan nila at lumapit kina Lyssa na hinihingal.
Gab: Che! Andito ka pala. Asan na si Akhi?
Cherry: The nerve Gab! Aaway awayin mo sya then magtataka ka kung mawawala sya? Go and find him!
At ginawa nga ni Gab.
Aaron: You must be Akhi's bestfriend?
Cherry: Yes at naikuwento ka na sakin ni Rocel so if you think I'd be nice, then you have to re evaluate your definition of "nice".
Celine: Nevermind her Aaron. Let's just all go and find Akhi.
At ayun everyone is now looking for me. Halos sabay na nakita ng grupo nila Cherry at ni Gab ang kinaroroonan namin ni Mackhoy. Nakita nilang nakasandal ako kay Mackhoy crying at nakayakap naman sya sakin.
Cherry: Gab, I know my cousin. He's just probably comforting Akhi.
Gab: I know. Samahan nyo nalang sya pauwi.
Then he walked away.
Cherry: Where do you think you're going?
Gab: Isn't it obvious? I'm going home!
Cherry: Without Akhi? Habang meron pa kayong misunderstanding?
Gab: Cherry, It's probably for the best. I also need some time for myself.
He continued walking away just in time na lumingon ako and I saw that he was. I worried so I stood up fast and walked towards cherry.
Akhi: Oh my gosh bessy why did he walk away? Nagselos ba sya kay Mac?
Cherry: No! thank goodness no. Pero gusto daw muna nya mapag isa.
Then I looked down and looking so sad.
Cherry: Hey bessy everything will be fine. I'm sorry nga pala sa eksena namin kanina.
Celine: Yes sorry.
Alyssa: Sorry.
Cherry: Pero friendships na kami ngayon. Come on let's take you home.
Sinamahan na ako ng girls pauwi. Aaron and Mackhoy remained there standing. Then Mackhoy spoke to Aaron.
Mackhoy: You know unlike you, I have given Akhi the freedom to choose what he wants. I did not force myself into him.
Aaron: Haha yeah right. Look where it got you?
Mackhoy: Careful with your words mate! Hindi mo ko kilala.
Aaron: And so do you! You don't know me so don't preach.
Mackhoy: I'll be keeping an eye on you. I gave up on Akhi para suportahan silang dalawa ni Gab and the likes of you are not the ones who'd ruin them.
Aaron: Hahaha I ain't ruining anything. In fact, the feeling might even be mutual.
Mackhoy: Haha. You're delirious. What exactly do you mean by that?
Then he showed Mackhoy that picture of me and him kissing tongue to tongue.
Mackhoy: The f****?????
Aaron: Haha I know right? I guess I'm going home now. See you soon. Hahaha
Mackhoy was left there in disbelief. He's dumbfounded.
