Chantall

"Are you ready? Kanina ka pa?" Simon went inside the lodging room that I occupied first, I have a lot of things na dinala, especially the gifts.

"How's he?" I asked him while I'm putting my hair into a messy bun. I am wearing a beige skirt and a white tank top, and a pair of flats.

He laughed and opened the box of cakes that I made.

"Ohhh! This looks good. I hope the taste too." he commented on my cake so I rolled my eyes. Judgerist agad eh.

"Of course, I baked that. Don't you trust my magic hands?" I told him and he laughed at me while shaking his head.

"By the way, Sandro is so mad. I can't face him right now because he's so scary. And he's in his room for the whole afternoon, he did not join us in the dinner. He's sulking. And mas nagalit pa siya when you're ignoring his calls and messages knowing that you're active." he told me so I laughed, omg! Hahahahahah! I can clearly imagine his face, mad and irritated. His cheeks pa naman is so chubby.

"Wow! You're happy? While me, Vinny and Dad are scared. Such a bully girlfriend. Oh, what's this?" he said pero tumatawa pa din ako, he opened the gift bag and he get the box and opened it.

"Holy sh*t?! A Patek Philippe? Seriously? Did you bought this to him?! How much is this?" he asked me so I sat on the couch.

"12. And he said he want that watch so I bought him one. And dapat mas ginalit ninyo para sulit ang 12 ko, 'no." I told him, he carefully put back the watch box on the gift bag.

"Wow! Sandro is so lucky to have you as a girlfriend. What more as wife diba? Baka you'll buy him a limo of a Ferrari." i made a face on him. Grabe, ginawa naman akong sugar mommy nito. My phone rang and it's Sandro's number and Simon and I stared at each other. I get myself together and cleared my throat before I answer the call.

"Manahimik ka, Simon ha. Don't laugh or else, we'll fail." I told him, he nodded his head and covered his mouth with his hands. Natatawa agad eh, pati ako natawa.

"Ehem? Yes, Love? Napatawag ka? I'm in the dressing room." I answered him casually. I kicked Simon softly telling na lumayo siya sa akin, he's laughing agad eh.

"It's already 11." he answered pitifully on the other line and it made me want to laugh. His voice kasi, sobrang kawawa.

"I know, I have a shoot right now."

"Don't you want to have a countdown with me? It's my birthday after an hour."

"I'm sorry, wait. I gotta go." I said and ended the call.

Simon laughed so loud and so do I. Oh God! Kawawa naman si Sandwo. Hahahahahah!

"What if totohanin natin yung di pagpansin sa kaniya until Monday?" I jokingly asked Simon so he immediately shake his head to me that made me laugh. See, he's scared of his brother,

"No. No way! He's so scary. As in. I swear, so No. The way he knocked on my door a while ago, I can feel his anger. Hahahahahah!" he told me so I raised my eyebrows because of curiosity.

"Spill! What happened? What did you do?" I asked him and he laughed,

"I just walked out on the dining without any excuse, he hates that. I did it in purpose of course. He then went on my room and knocked at my door like he's breaking it, plus his tone. Oh God! I'm trembling because of fear. That's why I would never do that again." I clapped my hands because of what he did. Wow! Great job! Pwede na mag-artista ang Simon niyo.

"Let's go, it's already 11:30. We should be on the kitchen before 12, and Tita Liz will call him about what he did a while ago. That's her alibi." I told Simon and I get my small backpack and I bring the cake and the 3 bags of gifts and Simon is the one who bring the 2 boxes of cake. 

I payed the room that I stayed Muna and have a picture because they asked me,. They helped me with my belongings and put it inside Simon's car.

"I'm so nervous, I hope this is successful, kung Hindi, lagot tayo kay Tito Bong.  Wala siyang maiupload, hahahahaha!" I told Simon and he started the engine at umalis na.

Sandro

It's already 11:30 and no one greeted me, as in. No one, kahit sina Matt pa.

"Ay! It's just 11:30 palang pala. It's not my birthday, yet." I told to myself and covered my face with my pillow. I'm so frustrated because Chantall is busy, the people in this house has an issue together, and even in the HQ. Matt isn't answering my call also,

Or baka sinusurprise lang nila ako, I know them.  I know this family. Okay fine, I'll act like I am so surprise later, I'll prepare my tears. I stood up and find my eyedrops and went in front of the mirror.

I put an eyedrops on my both eye and made it fall down like a tear

"Surprise!" I said as I mimicked Mom's voice.

"Mom! Dad! Oh God! What's this? Mom. I thought you forgot about my birthday." I acted Infront of my mirror at ipinikit ng mariin ang mata ko para mas tumulo ang eyedrops na inilagay ko.

"No, not like that. Ganito nalang." I told to myself.  It's so lame if ganun yung expression ko.

"W-wow? I don't know what to say. Thank you Mommy, Thank you Daddy. Kaya pala hindi niyo ako pinansin dahil may surp-- the hell!" I said as I saw my Mom on my peripheral vision, Infront of my door and looking at me unbelievably, like I did something wrong.

"M-mom? Kanina ka pa dito?" I asked her and kept the eye drops on my back, she shake his head.

"What are you doing?" she asked so I stared at my feet and shrugged.

"You're crazy. By the way, we have to talk. I don't want how you act a while ago." she said, napapikit ako ng mariin. Wow? Ako pa? Ako pa talaga? Hindi sina Simon? I sighed and sumunod na sa kaniya. But I'm excited, okay? For sure they are surprising me downstairs. Wag pahalata Sandro.

We went on the kitchen and I am checking the surroundings if they are there,

"Who are you looking for? Simon's in his room, Vinny is sleeping, your Dad is in the HQ. Sit." she commanded, lawyer Liza is here. I sat in the chair facing her and sighed.

"You're not surprising me? It's my birthday na, Mom." I told her so she stared at me.

"It's still not may 3 minutes pa before your birthday. And besides the people of Ilocos will prepare a celebration for you tomorrow." I stared at her and she stared at me back, I sighed.

"I know you, Mom. Hahahahaha!" I told her and laughed but she's stare having that straight face so I guess.

"And the way you yell here, I hated that a while ago. In front of the foods pa talaga, Sandro?" I rolled my eyes, here we go again. Panganay mode on.

"Mom, Vincent and Simon did the worst. They walked out without excuse. You know I hate that." irita kong saad dito, I did the right thing but at the end, ako pa din ang mali.

"Whatever, go to my office. Get my papers and bring it here." She said and padabog akong tumayo.

"Ferdinand Alexander!" she said in a warning tone. I went upstairs.

"That doesn't mean I'm old, they won't celebrate and appreciate my birthday. Tsk."

I opened the room and turned on the light.

"Happy birthday, Tito Sandro!" I was taken a back of their shriek. I stared at all of them, Dad is here, Simon and Vincent, the helpers.

"Hahahahahah! Sabi ko na nga ba eh. Your prank and surprise is so lame. Boring!" I told them and I laughed but to be honest, I want to cry. Oh God! They made me mad and irritated for a day for like this.

"Ah? Lame? Ganun? Okay fine!" my eyes widen when I saw Chantall going towards me from the back of Pops and Vincent

"Love! You're here!" I said cheerfully and went on her to hug her. Muntik pa nga mahulog yung cake na dala niya so Simon get it.

"Hindi! Lame eh. Lame? Boring? Sana hindi nalang kita sinurprise." nagtatampong saad nito, I laughed because I know she's joking, I'm already used to her humor.

"Hala ka! Ayan kasi Sandro." Daddy said and nakisawsaw na din ang dalawa.

"Tita, sinabihan niya ng lame yung surprise ko." nilingon ko and pinto and I saw Mom, there, Standing. Smiling.

"See, masama ugali." panggatong din ni Mommy so Vincent and Simon laughed.

"Mom! Grabe ka naman." I told her and she laughed.

"I'm just joking, Son. Happy birthday! You're old." I gasped some air because they are all telling me that I'm old.

"Huwag niyo na po'ng ipamukha sa akin Mom." saad ko, and stared at Chantall who's staring at me also.

"Wag mo ko tignan ha. Sinabihan mong lame at boring yung effort ko, I stayed until 4am for your cake and tiniis ko na hindi ka kausapin for the whole day, tapos ganiyan ka." she acted

"Lagot ka Sandro. Hala ka." sabi ni Vinny so I hugged Chantall tight and kissed her forehead, I chuckled.

"I'm just joking, Love. I am so surprised and so grateful that you're here. I thought you're in LA. Thank you so much for making my birthday more memorable. I love you. Don't tampo na." I told her and I kissed her lips.

"Corny." Dad reacted and pumunta na kay Mommy.

"So gross. Get a room." Sinegundahan ni Simon.

"Hahahahah! Baba na kayo, we'll eat. I made a simple Midnight foods. Baba na kayo ha." Mom said and they all went out, they get the boxes of cakes and closed the door.

"Happy birthday again, Love." she said and I smiled at her,

"I'll request for a gift." I teased her so she get my arms on her waist.

"Hoy! I have a lot of gifts to you." I just smiled at her and she rolled her eyes. She knows what I mean, hahahahah! I'm just teasing and joking around.

"Sandro ha. Kakain pa tayo sa baba." she said.

"I'll eat my appetizer first." I winked at her and she laughed.

"Just a quickie." I whispered and inupo ito sa table ni Mommy.
