"Is it normal to wait for a text from someone you had sex with?" I asked while touching the tip of my shot glass.

Naubo si Sameera at si Sena naman ay nanlalaki ang mata nang tumingin sa akin. Nasa Intoxicant kami ngayon gaya ng nakaugalian kapag Freakday. Parties, clubbing, drinking and of course, I'm hoping to see him here.

"You had sex? With whom? A girl?" Sameera asked in curiosity. Lumagok at tinaasan ako ng kilay para maghintay sa aking sagot.

"No, I mean in some movies. Naisip ko lang. Why would a girl wait for his call if it's only a one-night stand?" tanong ko para hindi mahalata na para sa akin talaga iyon.

Alexandro and I didn't have sex, but why do I feel that we should talk about what happened? It's been one week! I know it's nothing serious. We are only having fun, providing each other's needs when sex hormones are calling, but it feels like I need some clarification on why we did that.

I can't erase it in my head. I can't even kiss my current girlfriend because I'm thinking about his lips. I can't even finger myself because his touch is all I want! Fuck.

Liking him doesn't mean I am destined for a relationship with him, right? Sometimes it is just a physical attraction, and other times it is just in-the-moment passion.

"She has feelings for him. Kasi kung wala naman, pakialam niya pa ba pagkatapos ng sex? No strings attached. That's all," sagot ni Sameera at ipinagsalin ako. Ininom ko iyon at kahit sanay na, gumuhit pa rin ang init sa lalamunan ko.

"Yup. If she's waiting, it means she's expecting something more than the sex they had like labels, serious relationship or maybe another sex..." dugtong ni Sena at ibinaling na lamang muli ang atensyon sa paligid.

Maybe, she's searching for someone to flirt tonight. Dapat ganoon rin ako dahil kakabreak lang namin kahapon ng girlfriend ko pero wala na naman akong gana.

"With a true one-night stand, you can expect silence the next day. If he is texting you, then it has already turned into something more. He has made the first move," Sameera said and winked at me.

"Or else, if he made you breakfast the following day and drive you personally in your home. Guys won't waste their efforts on someone they aren't interested in," sambit naman ni Sena at kumaway dahil may nakitang kakilala.

Natawa ako dahil parang may karanasan naman sila sa one-night stand. Well, I don't know if they had. We are all virgins, last time I checked. Mukha lang kaming hayok sa sex, but we know how to preserve and put boundaries.

It's not that I'm expecting or... maybe I am. Hindi ko alam! Nakakalito. I don't know why I'm still thinking about it and why I am holding on to what we did. Napalunok ako habang nakatitig sa huling mensahe ko sa kanya. I asked him if he got home safe but he didn't reply.

Hanggang sa lumipas ang araw, umaasa ako na makakausap siya pero hindi. Practice lang sa graduation ang inaatupag ko sa school sa mga natitirang araw. Mauuna ako kina Sena dahil maaga naman lagi kami sa ibang school. I'm busy with the preparations but I can make time if he wants us to talk!

Kung palang naibigay ko sa kanya, talagang kamumuhian ko siya dahil pagkatapos niyang kuhanin, walang paramdam man lang kung sakali.

Tell your goodnight to the light and close your eyes
There's a better place for you than to stay awake
You'll get closer to a paradise of dreamers in love
You'll get better like heaven has done something
