• Everything Will Be Fine

Thing about that made made me hurt a little. Maybe I have a crush on him that those thoughts made something inside me hurt. Just crush. That will not affect our friendship. I don't want to interfere in their relationship. They welcome me wholeheartedly then who am I to ruined it?

Our plan to go to Cheska's house continued. It is in a village that is familiar to me but I do not remember anymore. Maybe I've been here before or something I visited?

"Ethan's house is close to Cheska's. Maybe we should just go to him first." Chelsea said while we're in the van that is owned by Zaine. His family has a driver and we just go together to Cheska's. Zaine was in the front seat while the three of us were in the back.

" Let's go to Ethan first." Zaine said to the driver. When the car stopped at a house full of glass windows, I realized that whoever is living here is surely a rich person.

Someone came out of the gate and we looked there. Ethan was walking towards the van now so Zaine went outside to meet him. They even made hand gestures that only they understand. They are really close.

When Zaine entered, the door next to me suddenly opened because I was at the end part of it. I looked at Ethan who just gave a smile and glanced at the others, Cheska and Chelsea.

"Hey." He said and got in. We sat side by side because we probably didn't want to be alone in the back. We will be crowded here.

"How are you?" I asked. I even turned to him without answering. I noticed that he was using earphones so he did not answer. He looked at me when he realized I was looking at him.

"Oh!" He removed the earpod from his ear and smiled at me. What is wrong with him now? "What were you saying?"

"Nothing." Its reddish lips curved even more. Looks like another Ethan is the person I am talking to right now. I guess he's a playboy based from his looks.

"I'm fine though. It's just strange that someone ask me that." He said and made a smile. I just nodded when I realized he heard it. Cheska who was next to me turned to him.

"What no one asks? We always greet you." Cheska almost shouted that made us chuckled.

"Tsk, it's different. You're..." He didn't finish it and just chose to listen to the music he was listening to earlier.

Strange.

I just shrugged at Cheska when I saw her arch a brow at him. Even I, could not understand what he said. We reached down a simple house. It is also somewhat similar in size to Ethan. This is more simple that them. I wonder if her parents are here. She had mentioned before that they had arrived.

Upon entering, we were immediately greeted by a lady who I think is already aged 40 above. She is not the one I expected thqt would wear elegant dresses . It is simple to see often in provincial people. Grandma was wearing the same like hers.

"Mother Rosy." We made a polite gestures one by one

to her. She generously invited us to the dinner table.

"Sit down kids," she said. "Just get what you want to eat. It's good that you got here."

"Thank you, grandma." We answered in unison.

"I'm going to ask. Who is this beautiful woman next to Ethan?"

"Jane, grandma." I heard Cheska answered. I looked up and gave them a forced smile.

"Thank you that you came hija," she said smiling.

" Thank you too, Grandma Rosy."

"Oh, just eat here whatever you wants, okay? I will just assist the others. Maybe there will be more visitors will come." We all nodded and greeted her again a happy birthday.

I can't choose from the dishes served. I like it all. There are rice, Adobo, Menudo, Noodles, Biko, Lumpia and others are food served.

"What do you want Jane?" I heard Ethan asked. next to me. He's a gentleman, huh?

"Ah..." I was speechless when he put soem rice on the plate. I was a little surprised by what he did.

"Ah," I asked shyly but he was still holding the spoon. Itnseems like he's waiting for my answer. "Adobo will do."

"All right." He nodded and served a food for me. I thank him which he just nodded before we continued eating.

When I finished I looked at Chelsea who was just smiling at us. She might saw what Ethan did. Immediately one of my eyebrows rose which made them laugh.

"That's just the way it is," Zaine said when he saw my reaction. My cheeks also turned slightly red because of my reaction. I simply nodded to him and started eating.

"Nathan and Luke can't come because their older brothers are with them." said Chelsea who was laughing as she's the person next to me.

"They're such idiots." Clifford shook his head while eating. I just noticed that he's sitting away from Chelsea. This one is also quite new. They always sits beside each other. Their argument might be that serious.

"Tsk, maybe they need something like that," Zaine laughed. They seem to trip their friends too much when they are ordered. " You all know that they are scared when it comes to their siblings."

"Nathan is a good boy but Luke, I don't know. There's no reason he will decline when it's not about food." Chelsea replied making me smile.

"Luke must have regretted not being with us. The importance of food." Ethan responded. They just laughed. I noticed that Cheska was just smiling next to Zaine. She was laughing but I noticed that something was bothering her. Maybe because of her mother.

Her eyes seems like about to cry as she looks at one of us. She suddenly glance at me. I smiled at her to assure her that everything will be fine.
