"This time hindi mo na makakalimutan?" Natatawa naman ito dahilan para magtaka siya. "Papaano ko makakalimutan kung nandito na nga ako at sinusundo ka?" Napakunot ang noo niya. "My gosh, Maddy! Hindi mo ba alam na lunch time na?" Umiling siya dahilan para mapasapo ito sa noo. "Past twelve na po para alam niyo." Napatingin siya sa relong pambising at nakitang twelve fifteen na nga. Hindi niya namalayan ang oras dahil busy kasi siya lalo na't kararating lang ng ibang mga bulaklak ngayon.

Ang hirap maging maganda talaga. Uminom ako ng kaunti habang iginagala ang paningin sa kabuuan ng club. Nagkalat sa loob ang mga nagme-make out.

Midnight Me Time CASSANDRA POV “Alejandro, you owe me an explanation.” Introduction ko sa kanya ng magkasarili kami. Medyo tipsy na kaming dalawa dahil nagkaroon ng inuman sa bonfire.

Sina Tito at si Yuna ay nasa table lang nakatingin sa amin. "~Kissed me like you wanna be loved You wanna be loved You wanna be loved This feels like falling in love Falling in love Yeah we're falling in love~" Natapos ang kanta. Aalis na sana kami nina Eun-ji nang biglang tumunog ang putok ng fireworks sa itaas. Tumunog din ang napakalaking wall clock nila sa loob, tanda na 10 minutes from now, magtu-twelve midnight na.
