Chapter 2: Restobar

Walter

The bell rang I gathered all my stuff at nilagay ko yun sa bag ko, I saw Angelica doing the same thing, di kami half day kasi we still needed to meet our other teachers.

"Angelica" tinawag ko sya

"Yes?" she answered

"Do you wanna eat lunch with us, kasama yung girlfriend ni Christian at yung mga kaibigan ng girfriend nya may restobar kasi si Alex just across the school?" I asked her

"Uhm, sige" she said

I smiled secretly

"Leandro, Chris, Lex is it okay if Angelica joins us for lunch?" I asked

"Yeah" Leandro said

"Yes, naman" Alex said "and by the way libre lunch natin ngayon since it's the first day" he continued

Christian just nodded

"Let's go" I told them

we went out of the classroom and saw Stacey, Gina, and Athena na nakikipag sagutan kay Jessy

"What the heck is your problem?!" sabi ni Stacey when Jessy pushed her

"You bitch and your alipores din, I told you to stay away from my Walter!" sabi ni Jessy

"How could WE stay from Walter maybe you forgot that MY boyfriend is friends with Walter and besides Walter is our friend since childhood, so better stay out of my way sl*t!" Stacey said

"You are who the heck wears those kind of clothes and make-up in your school, it dosen't mean your dad is the one of the board memebers you're gonna act like the queen bee of this school baka nakakalimutan mong mas malaki ang shares ng pamilya ko, rather than your families shares and don't call me a bitch cause you are how pathetic anak ka ng isa sa mga taong may shares in this school so act like one don't act like it! you're always making eksena here sa school be mature for once Jessy!" sabi ni Stacey

Stacey has a point though she was wearing a really short dress tinakot nya nanaman yung uto utong guard, geez di na talaga napapagkatiwalaan yung guards na hinire ng school.

"Maybe you forgot that Gina and Athena were my frends, they aren't your real friends Stacey kawawa ka naman they're just using you for your money" sabi pabalik ni Jessy

"WE WERE friends din baka nakakalimutan mo but Gina and Athena chose me over YOU," tinuro nya si Jessy "because of your filthy attitude Gina and Athena might not be wealthy as me pero they are real friends unlike you" sabi ni Stacey kay Jessy

"Stacey is right Jessy, simula noong naging part ng board ang papa mo you changed bigtime" sabi ni Athena

"Tama na yan guys naghihintay na sila Alex sa atin and besides SHE'S not worth of our time" sabi ni Gina

"You maybe wealthy now but YOU lost us" sabi ni Stacey and bumped Jessy's shoulder and walked to us

"That's my baby" Christian said and smirked

"Babyyyy" Stacey said and hugged Christian tightly

"And wait who is this new gal?" Stacey asked

"She's Angelica, our new classmate she's Uncle Jester's daughter the new vice pres of this school" I said and smiled

"Hi I'm Stacey Co Ty, I'm the girlfriend of Christian" Stacey said

"Gina Ferrer" Gina said

"Athena Perez, I'm the cousin of Leandro" Athena said and smiled

"I'm Angelica Shane Roa Gonzales, you can call me Angelica" I said

Nakita kong bumulong si Chistian kay Stacey

Christian Ngo's Point of View

I haven't inroduced myself that much yet so I am Christian Chan Ngo, I am 19 I love reading, I play the piano, and I play basketball also pag may oras ako

I've been friends with Alex, and Stacey since nung mga bata pa kami the our parents introduced us to Walter and Leandro nung grade 3 kami and we met Athena and Gina nung grade 7 kami and ever since all of us met we were inseprable.

"There's something with Walter it's the first day of school and first time kong nakitang ganyan yan si Walter, he's not just being friendly baby alam ko paano makipagkaibgan ang isang Walter Arkinson, I think he has something for that girl don't you think baby?" I whisered to Stacey while hugging her

"Me also baby it's weird you know naman na kilala natin si Walter eversince mga bata pa tayo" she whispered

"Let's just observe them baka naman he's just being friendly" I whispered to her

Stacey nodded

"Ba't ba kayo nagbubulungan dyan?" tanong ni Alex

"It's none of your business Alex" Stacey said

"Tara na guys we're famished, right baby" sabi ko sa kanila para di na sila magtanong kung anong binulong ko kay Stacey kanina

Di na sila nag tanong we all went to Alex's restobar

Garcia's Restobar

Angelica Shane Roa Gonzales' Point of View

I haven't introduced myself properly yet I am Angelica Shane Roa Gonzales 19, I love reading and singing.

We went inside Alex's restobar and went up the 3rd and last floor, Alex opened the door and I saw a big room with instruments, couches, a mini recording studio, it had a couple pictures of Walter, Leandro, Alex, Christian and Stacey nung mga bata pa sila I saw a picture of them din when they graduated 10th Grade including Gina and Athena na din.

Alex opened a sliding door that led us to the terrace, pag bukas ang agad kong nakita ay isang table where 10 people could sit, a couple of ceiling fans, a book shelf, a billiard table, at kita talaga yung whole city

*/ insert Ms. Author nasa higher part kasi ng city ang Thaddeus Arkinson University pati na rin ang Restobar ni Alex

"Christian and Stacey kayo na magkatabi alam naman namin na yun gusto nyong dalawa" sabi ni Alex

"Since I think na mas magkakasundo kayo Walter and Angelica kayo na din magkatabi" sabi ni Alex

Me and Walter just nodded di naman pwedeng magreklamo ako since bago lang naman nila akong nakilala and si Alex pa may ari na restobar na toh nakakahiya naman kung maging choosy pa ako.

So ganito ang sitting arrangement namin

Leandro

Christian Athena

Stacey Alex

Gina Ako

Vacant seat Walter

Vacant Seat

"Walter why are we the only people here sa 3rd floor and bakit parang tambayan toh?" tanong ko kay Walter

"Tayo lang talaga dito kasi kahit yung family ni Alex di nakakapasok dito, haven kasi namin magbabarkada minsan we sleepover here din sometimes dito kami nag aaral tuwing may exams din" paliwanag sa akin ni Walter

"Oh kaya pala tayo lang nandito" sabi ko

Walter nodded

Alex gave each one of us a menu,

"I'll have Pork Adobo" sabi ni Leandro

"Same lang din kay Leandro" sabi ni Athena

"I'll have Carbonara with no bacon and Honey glazed chicken, baby how about you?" tanong ni Stacey kay Christian

"I'll have Buffalo Wings" sabi ni Christian

"I'll have Beef Steak" Gina said

"I'll have pork sinigang, how about you Angelica?" Walter asked me

"I'll have Tuna Ceasar Salad and Carbonara with Mojos" I said

Alex said it to the intercom, we all chatted while waiting for our food

"So guys what course do you plan to take for college?" Stacey asked

"Business Management kami ni Alex" Leandro said

"I'll take Business Management and Culinary classes" sabi ni Walter

"Engineering" sabi ni Christian

"Architecture" sabi naman ni Stacey

"Education" sabi ni Gina

"Interior Design" sabi ni Athena

"I'll take Business Management" I said

"Why are you gonna take Culinary classes Walter, you're like so magaling magluto already" Stacey said

"I just wanna learn more about cooking and since ako magmamana most of our businesses which are Restaurants and Hotels, I plan to put up my own resto as well" sabi ni Walter

The food came, we ate and went back to our classrooms, magkatabi na kami ni Walter sa quadrangle kasi may film showing ang school, for the whole week of school wala kaming classes, programmes, activities lang ang meron so eto kami ngayon sa quadrangle ng Arkinson University.

"Laro tayo ng 21 questions Angelica, I'll ask you some questions and ask me too" Walter said

"Okay, sure sinong una?" I asked

"You go first" Walter said

"Any siblings?" I asked

"Yep, a younger brother"Walter said

"Oh, that's nice what's his name and how old is he?" I said

"He's 12 and his name is Markus, and don't worry I won't include your additional questions to our game, now let's continue" Walter said

"Sing a song any song" he said

"Okay" I said and started singing "Shallow" by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper

Tell me something, boy

Aren't you tired tryin' to fill that void

Or do you need more?

Ain't it hard keeping so hard core

Walter

The way she sang was just so marvelous, she sang like an angel.

This is the first time I've felt this way towards a woman, soon this will come to an end, I am just feeling this way because we have the same vibe, that's right we just have similarities that's it.

I'm falling

In all the good times....I find myself

Longing for change

And in the bad times I fear myself

I'm off the deep end, watch as I dive in

I'll never meet the ground

Crash through the surface, where they can't hurt us

We're far from the shallow now

I sang with her in the next part

In the shallow. shallow

In the shallow. shallow

In the shallow. shallow

We're far from the shallow now

We ended the song together

"wow you are talented" I said

"Thanks, and so are you" she said

"Next question" she said

I nodded

"What is the most embaracing happening in your life?" she asked

"Damn! I think it was when I almost slipped during Christian's sister's engagement part good thing Leandro being the eldest among us all caught my arm and made me stand still, I had some champagne and I was tipsy" I said

"Ahahahahaha, seriously" she said

"Yep, ufortunately" I said

We asked more than 21 questions it was 5 in the evening and I'm with Leandro, Alex, Gina, Athena, and Angelica who was now part of the group, we are in the basement currently waiting for Stacey and Christian they were at the faculty because Stacey was asked if she could help the teacher with some paper works, after 25 minutes of waiting we saw Christian and Stacey coming out from the elevator and walking towards us.

"So let's just hang out tomorrow, Stacey isn't feeling that well" Christian said

Nauna na sila ni Stacey

"I gotta go din I've got to deal with some business with my dad also" Leandro said

"Lemme guess, tito has been pushing you to Mindy" Alex said

"AGAIN?!" sabay sabay naming sinabi, well except for Angelica

"What's her surname" Angelica asked

"Mindy Martinez" Leandro said

"That evil witch" Angelica said

"She was a friend of mine from St.Matthews, I was a bit of nerd before, and she beame very diffrent and she became one of my bullies, my arm got fractured because of her silly slime pranks, I got gum in my hair, and since I am allergic to peanuts she added them in my sandwhich" she said

"Damn, that sucks" Alex said

"she and her family just wants kuya Leandro and tito Max's money" Athena said

"May point ka Athena, I heard she was and is dating someone already, si ano nga pangalan nun Walter?" tanong ni Alex sa akin

"Miguel San Pedro" I said

"Yun nga" sabi ni Alex

"tara na nga baka pagalitan na naman ako nang magaling kong tatay, Athena sakay na, ikaw din Gina sakay ka na same subdivision lang naman tayo" sabi ni Leandro

"Ako din guys sasamahan ko pa si mommy papunta kay lola" sabi naman ni Alex

Nagpaalam na sila at kami nalang ni Angelica natira, she had a car as well.

"So kita nalang tayo bukas" sabi ko sa kanya

"Yup, nga pala san tayo bukas sa quad or sa classroom?" tanong nya

"Sa quad tayo bukas we are gonna sign up for clubs tomorrow" sabi ko

"oh okay thanks see ya tomorrow Walter" she said while smiling and she opened her Aston Martin V12 Vantage S car and went in

I waved at her before going inside my car.

Damn this is not good.
