Chapter 16.5: The One Who’s Dying Inside

AMBROSE

The presence of loud upbeat music was completely encouraging in the most unexpected moment. I haven’t been to a party for too long to forget what it feels like, but this vibe was utterly nostalgic. I don’t know why does it feel that way when there hasn’t been a year since I last attended a house party like this. It’s still too early for the real party to start but everyone’s already starting to catch the feel of the upcoming night. People started flooding minute after minute and I wondered why Marlon seemed to have invited everyone at school.

I was sitting at the couch and everyone who’s invited were already hyping up as the music continued playing in the background. I suddenly felt like I want to immerse myself along with the few people that I recognize. I saw Phil by the fridge and he was talking to this girl wearing a sky blue spaghetti strap and a red mini skirt.
