Mark was scheduled to get married next month. He told two of his best friends, John and Ryan, to prepare a stag party for him. One night, they decided to all meet up and discuss what kind of bachelor’s party to organize.
First to arrive at the restaurant was John. Seeing that Mark and Ryan were not yet there, he took a table ordered a beer and lit up a stick of smoke. John was in his late 30’s, tanned with a stocky built. Although he was only 5’5 tall, he had a powerful frame since he used to be a gym rat a decade earlier.
Next to arrive was Ryan. Upon entering the restaurant, he went straight to Mark’s table, gave him a high five and ordered the waitress to get him another beer. Ryan, in his mid-30’s, was a little bit taller than John. Fair skinned and with a beer belly, he was more of a talker while Mark was more of the silent type.
Last to arrive was Mark. Upon seeing their soon-to-be-married friend, both raised their hands. Mark was as old as Ryan. He was around 5’8 and skinny built with graying hair. But amongst the three, he was the best looking. Good looking is an overstatement since on any given day, nobody would notice them if you were to judge them by their looks. For what they lacked in the looks department, they made up for it in street smarts and charm.
“Mga bro, kamusta na ‘yung stag party natin?” asked Mark after taking a seat.
“Kaya nga pinatawag ko kayo dito e. Para pag usapan natin.” answered Ryan. John, who was clueless on what they were to talk about, took a swig from his beer.
“Basta gusto kong stag party, yung kakaibang stag party ha.” Declared Mark. “Yung tipong bachelor’s party pero unlike any other that we’ve been to. Preferably ‘wag mga bayaran yung mga babae. Kaya ba?”
“Hahaha. Mukhang gusto mong maging memorable itong last night mo ah. Do you have any concept in mind? Any theme for THE last party of your bachelor life?” asked Ryan. “Let us know so we could prepare.”
“Wala naman. Basta tayo lang tatlo andun ok na. Maybe rent a place, buy a little food and drinks. Basta bahala na kayo. Request ko lang is….sana yung mga babes na ma-invite nyo are young and fun types ok? Ayoko yung mga pinupulot sa Q.Ave., or may mga bilibil or may mga naak na. Hahaha.”
Ryan glanced at Mark. Mark smiled to himself for he knew what kind of party they were planning to hold. The trio drank until midnight, exchanged stories and swapped jokes.
For the next few days, John and Ryan prowled the streets Metro Manila. Both spent time hanging out in places where they knew pretty young things went to such as malls, cafes and restos. Spending a lot of time drinking lattes, drinking beer and eating out can be hazardous to one’s health and exhausting to the wallet. They met a lot of girls but most if not all lacked one thing in particular, their child-like attitude to have fun. So on one particular day, they decided to hang out at a video arcade in one of the malls in the metro. Why not try their luck there?
Scanning the arcade premises, John motioned to Ryan two kolehiyalas, in white nursing uniforms, playing air hockey. Both guys positioned themselves at the side of the table so they had a very clear view of how they were playing the game.
“Bro, ok ‘to. Mukhang masayahing mga bata.” whispered John as they were thrilled to see the two girls having fun.
“Teka. Diyan ka muna, bantayan mo sila ha. Bibili lang ako ng mga tokens panglaro.” Said Ryan as he went to the booth.
Both girls were studying in a nearby nursing school and it was probably their lunchtime that they decided to go to the arcade. The girl on the left, a Scarlett Johanssesn look-a-like, stood around 5’4, tisay complexion and had long black hair with brown streaks. Judging from how her uniform hugged her body, she had a perfect 36-26-36 whistle bait figure. It didn’t help that whenever she took a shot at the puck, her boobs would bounce.
The girl on the right was a little bit taller, around 5’6, morena and slim. She resembled a younger version of Sam Pinto. She had long legs and wearing heels even made her look taller. Whenever she bent over forward to throw the puck back, her body didn’t show any traces of fat or excess curves.
Fortunately it was a lunchtime at the middle of the week. There were not too many people in the arcade at the time. Watching both girls ought to make any male person perspire. But more than their physical actions, there was one thing about them that stood out: they were having fun and didn’t care if they were acting like kids!
After their game, Ryan approached the two girls. “ Hi. Ang galling naman nyo maglaro. Gusto nyo pustahan tayo? If manalo kayo, treat naming kayong dalawa sa Starbucks.”
“E what if kayo naman ang manalo, anong gagawin nyo sa amin kuya?” said the Scarlett look-a-like.
“If matalo kayo, eh di you both have to go with us. Joke. Hehehe.” Answered Ryan with a grin.
Ryan is a guy with a very gifted personality. He may not look much but his smile is disarming in a boyish kinda way. The two girls looked at both guys before whispering to one another and letting out a hearty giggle.
“Siga kuya. Game!” said the Sam Pinto look-a-like. The game was close with each side leading by a point one time or another but in the end, the men won over the girls.
Although the two girls lost the game, all four made high fives as if they were childhood playmates.
