(GUYS TYSM FOR 3K VIEWS THIS CHAPTER IS A SPEACIAL CHAPTER, I hope you guys will enjoy!☺️)

Jay-Jay's POV

"You."

After Ci-n said that, Yuri just stood up and left like he'd seen enough drama for the day.So now it was only the three of us — me, Keifer, and the crybaby himself.

"What do you mean 'me'?" I asked, pointing at myself.

"Oh come on, don't ask questions. Comfort me like Keifer does," Ci-n said, still wiping his tears dramatically.

This kid is seriously a crybaby. I literally just called him a weirdo and now he's crying like I ran over his dog.

"Fine!" I sighed and walked toward him. His whole face lit up like a Christmas tree — and then he hugged me. Like full-on hug.

"Jay! Let's hang out after school!" Ci-n said, still clinging onto me.

"No way, Aries and Kuya Angelo will kill me on sight."

"Grumpy family these days 🙄," Ci-n muttered.

Keifer burst out laughing so hard he almost dropped his phone.

"What? I'm just saying the truth!" Ci-n said, with zero hesitation. ZERO.

I swear I tried not to laugh, but I couldn't. The way he roasted my brother and cousin so casually just made my whole day.

"Anyway, Jay! Let's go to the cafeteria!" Ci-n said, already jumping in place like a literal kid.

"Okay," I said.

"My treat," Keifer said, and Ci-n actually jumped higher.

We headed to the cafeteria and joined the line. Of course, everyone's eyes immediately turned toward Keifer and Ci-n — like hello?? I'm literally here too?? Am I invisible?? 

Am I not as pretty or what?

We ordered shakes, snacks, and a bunch of random food we probably didn't need.

"Jay please, let's hang out after school!" Ci-n begged again, this time pulling the puppy eyes card.

"But what about Kuya Angelo and Aries?" I asked.

"I'll talk to them," Keifer interrupted, smirking like he just declared war.

I sighed. "Fine."

"YESSS!" Ci-n cheered and immediately started shoving fries in his mouth.

After lunch, we went back to the classroom. And like always — YES, AS ALWAYS — I understood nothing. Not even one word.

Finally, the last bell rang. FREEDOM!

"Jay! Let's go!" Ci-n said, practically dragging me.

That's when a genius idea popped into my head. Oh god, I'm such a intelligent person! 

I quickly grabbed my bag and called them out. "Guys! Let's go — but I'll pick the place."

Ci-n immediately agreed. "Okay sure!"

"Alright then, let's go," I said.

We reached the parking lot and hopped into Keifer's car.The ride was anything but quiet — Ci-n kept yapping non-stop, telling random stories about his PS5 and how he once fell off a chair while playing. I swear, my brain was melting.

Finally, we reached the destination.The mall.

Keifer looked around, confused. "Seriously? The mall?"

"Yup, I'm gonna turn you guys into girls!"

"WHAT—" Ci-n tried to escape, but I caught him by the hood. Oh, you already agreed, now you can't run Mr. Cry baby!

"Don't you wanna hang out?" I asked, raising a brow.

He froze for a second. "...Just make sure to make me pretty, okay?"

I nodded. "Deal."

Honestly, I never really liked shopping before… but right now? This was fun.

We walked into one of the clothing shops. My eyes instantly landed on a prom dress displayed on a mannequin. It was so pretty that I literally stopped walking.

Keifer noticed right away. "What? You want that?" he asked, pointing at it.

"N-no.." I said way too fast.

Instead, I grabbed two black off-shoulder dresses and handed them over. "Try these on."

They both groaned but went inside the fitting rooms.I waited outside… for five whole minutes.

What are they doing in there, a full musical rehearsal??

Finally, the doors opened — and oh. my. god.They looked gorgeous.

Like, both of them could've easily walked into a runway. They just needed wigs, heels, and a little makeup and bam, two new girlfriends unlocked.

"You guys look gorgeous!" I said, clapping dramatically.

Ci-n twirled around, almost tripping on the hem.Keifer smirked and looked at me.

"I thought you would've been much prettier in these dresses," he said casually.

I blinked.Hold on— WHAT?! 😳
