Delicate Rainbow

It was three in the morning when I suddenly woke up from a deep sleep. The rain was so heavy that it seemed like there was a war in the sky. I looked out my little window, I saw Rainier. Suddenly I thought 'It's redundant, I saw Rain in the heavy rain. But who could he be waiting for?' I couldn't help but be surprised because he was with someone. I lay down again and texted Rain, he said he was waiting for a jeep going to Spain.

I just teased a little "Do you have a booking?", he didn't answer. Rain is 23 years old, has a slender body that is always wearing glasses, and is inclined to style his shoulder-length hair, like a modern hippie. Rain is smart, sometimes talking to himself; often tired and lacks sleep, but never run out of good words that will wake you up to reality. He works in a US advertising firm in the same building I work in Greenhills.

"HEY! I'm not like you. Ha-ha," he said and squealed. I inquired, and he said he just got a massage. Monday morning, I couldn't sleep.

*Tick* Oops! My GFF (Gay Foundation Friend, or simply thick foundation) messaged me. Oscar at work, Oca at home, Osang when teased, and Miss O is what he likes to call her. The queen of selfies and filters; updated with all the gossip in showbiz and the office. Valedictorian in high school, Cum Laude in college. My co-worker, a marketing assistant at a makeup line.

"Gays, where are you?" Message I received in our FB group chat. Everyone has seen, I guess they look busy, the day has just started everyone still sleeping? " Oscar showed a picture of an event we were going to "Goddess of Beauty 2016".

*Tick* *Tick* *Tick*--- There the gays are awake.

"Friends, we can't go there. Someone will be left outside. " Rain teased.

"Ah, that's it? You're always teasing my appearance! I'm one of the organizers of the event, you know! Ha-ha" answered Oscar.

"You're in a good mood my friend, you're still in school." Vincent, who we consider to be our queen mother, is always teasing us. The oldest in the group, he doesn't want that; for him, you have to feel younger even as you get older. "Age is just a number, well, I'm proud to say I'm one of the Titas of Manila. Dawn Zulueta feels. Good, right? " One of the lines Vincent dropped.

Vincent is in his mid-30's and still looks like he's in his late 20's, he has a baby face. He is a manager of an insurance company, Saint Peter Life Plans. Has his own house and car, and has a small business left to his mother so that he can have daily entertainment and at the same time earn money. He's one of those successful gay men you don't just bump into because he's aggressive but has a heart.

I was just wondering where the other three were because we were supposed to meet at lunchtime. Yael could not be contacted, it seems that the phone was turned off; Ben just posted a picture on IG of what he ate and Ian has just seen zoned us out and didn't even reply to the messages.

Suddenly, someone shouted on the other side of the road, "Gino! Bestfriend!"
