Well, it took us long enough. After almost three months of college life, Nadya, Diana and I finally had an official get-together.
None of us has changed at all. We're still the procrastinating girls who so easily get caught up in our own worlds.
I missed them.
It's different somehow. I've made new friends and some of them I hope to become even better friends with. But there's something about spending your formative years together that strengthens a bond.
We met at SM Megamall. I was picked up from my boarding house last Friday by Mommy Oma and Ninang Mae and was spending the weekend in the Makati apartment. Mostly playing Wii Motion and Sonic the Hedgehog and the Black Knight. But I'm getting side-tracked. Anyway, I had to ride the MRT from Makati with Ninang Mae. Meaning, I was made to go there early. Earlier than them.
I immediately sent them text messages saying where I was and asking where they were. They were still at their respective places of origin, they both said. So I wandered the whole of SM Megamall on my own, browsing store merchandise but never buying anything. I stayed longest in front of the Bio Research pet store, contemplating the possibility of secretly keeping a pet into my room. I wanted to save at least one of the furry creatures from their miserable, confined existences. But they didn't have anteaters, which are what I would have most use for.
I went to Cinderella, a small department store, and sifted through the sale items of Naf Naf, a French brand whose designs I appreciate. That was where Diana and I ended up meeting. Nadya arrived as I finished trying on a short dress that would have looked great with wedges.
We went straight to Cara Mia, Amici's in-house gelato shop whose name means "my love" in Italian. We each ordered one slice of different gelato cakes, Spumoni Surprise for Nadya and Choco Sans Rival for yours truly. I forgot Diana's order, although, no doubt, it will be on the receipt which I have kept, seeing as it was attached to the credit card slip which I must keep for the record.
We talked of subjects with no real importance but which are always considered those things that friends must share with each other. We went to Timezone and took pictures played games (I learned that I rock at Pinball!!!) and pretty soon we realized that our time together had to come to an end to soon. On the way to the MRT, we passed by Shangri-la Plaza, where I bought Machiavelli chocolates at Rustan's Department Store. We talked more and eventually rode the MRT to our respective destinations together.
