fire underneath
When we get angry, we shout with florid faces. We tend to speak hurtful words out of anger upon people, who we think, gave us the reason of our disappointment and the pain we received. Nonetheless, it is definitely wise if we direct our anger towards problems and not to people.
"Who threw cube ices on me!?"
But I don't think no man is able to be wiser when its mind is like a haywire, being erratic from the alcohol he or she drank.
"I just bought this dress!"
Just like this wild-eyed blonde socialite who promptly stood up with eyes wide open.
"Qui? Who did it!?"
Nilapitan ko siya at dahan-dahang hinila palabas. "Stop making a scene, Patricia. Everyone's watching." I whispered.
"Ah, ikaw ba 'yon?" Her tone changed and went back to normal as she place a few wet strands behind her ear. Napairap ako at tumango.
She then laughed forcefully. "Crap! Oo nga pala. I'm so sorreh." Tipsy, she made a peace sign to those people who kept on staring at her as I straddle her away.
Ilang saglit pa ay hinila siya ni Ford mula sa akin at binuhat sa kanyang balikat na parang isang sako ng bigas.
"What the!? Put me down- you wrench!" Malikot na pinag-papalo ni Pat ang likod niya. I just sighed and ran towards the exit of their house where Khael's waiting near Pat's car.
Hinagis ko ang susi na sinalo naman niya at binuksan ang pinto sa backseat. Nakasunod lang sa likod ko ang dalawa. Just like any other scene you see in the neighborhood, lumabas ang mga bisita habang nakatingin sa amin na parang mga chismosa. I even saw that Vincent Dujardin holding the glass of jug I used a while ago filled with iced water.
This girl spoiled herself too much for some party.
"I said put me down!"
"Shh! Kinulang ka ba sa yelo o ano?" Ani ni Ford at ipinasok ang nagwawalang kaibigan ko sa loob.
Sinara ko pintong iyon at umikot sa shot gun seat para maiwasan ang tingin ng mga tao. Agad na pinatunog ni Khael ang makina upang makaalis na kami rito.
"Where now?" Tanong ni Khael sa tabi ko. I just looked at him, not sure what to answer. Sunod ay tinignan ko si Pat na nanahimik na sa likod.
"Ano ang address ng toy store?" I asked her.
"Just pass that hill. Why am I here? Who's driving?" Saad niya nang mapansin na nasa backseat siya. Hindi man lang siya nag-abalang ayusin ang buhok na nakaharang sa mukha niya.
