CHAPTER ONE

🎶 Gorillaz, Clint Eastwood

The whole world is damned, and it's been years since I started hating this life I'm living. Oh, look, a corpse just tried to grab my ass. Fucking pervy zombie. I restrained the undead by tying her hands to a rusty pole. "Sayang ka, ang ganda mo pa man din." The zombie grunted, still trying to bite the tip of my hand. "Aww, look what you've done," I spat, as I was staring at my cola-flavored lollipop, lying on the floor, suckless. I traded one shot of whiskey for that. "Ba't ka kasi nagpakagat sa kanila, hija?"

"Arrow, stop playing with that thing and just kill it!" A man ordered. It was Draymond, the squad leader of the supply team. Hindi naman kasi ako dapat kasama dito kung 'di lang nakagat yung kasama namin kahapon kaya naman nila ito pinatay. OK naman akong maging isa sa mga ipinadala para mag-scavenge. Sanay naman na ako, eh. "Dalian mo!"

"You're not the boss of me; I will do whatever I want."

"If you weren't a girl, I'd beat the shit out of you."

"I wouldn't do that if I were you."

"Arrow, stop being mean." The woman speaking turns to Draymond. "You, walk it off." 'Yan nga pala ang pangalan ko. Arrow lang ang tawag sa akin ng mga kasamahan ko dahil ako ang master archer ng grupo namin. I don't like my real name anyway. "Ignore him. By the way, do you see any place where we can rest and you know..."

"Can't you wait 'til we get back?"

"I'm sorry, I feel horny whenever you come near, and I can't help it." This girl was my favorite sex buddy, not only because she's hot, but also very good in bed. I like the muffled sound she produces. "Besides, Faith and Bennett had enough of you last night." Shannon, this horny girl I'm with, brushed the hair on my face and nibbled my earlobe. "Halika na, Arrow, busy pa naman sila at nagawa naman na natin ang dapat nating gawin dito. They'll understand."

"But Draymond says it's not safe."

"There is no safe place, A, seriously?"

"Hindi lang kasi ako pamilyar sa lugar na 'to. I don't know the escape routes in this area." Bago pa ako makapagsalita ay ipinasok na ako ni Shannon sa loob ng isang building. Isang dating bodega yata ito ng bigas, at nakakuha na kami dito kanina ng supply. We can make it through another month. Hindi lang namin sinobrahan ang aming dala pabalik para kung sakaling lusubin kami ng mga zombie ay agad kaming makakatakas.

"Oh, yes, baby..."

"Shannon, release that. Quickly," I ordered her as I push two fingers in and out to her sensitive area. Supposedly. I can see that she's enjoying it so I added another one. "Dali na." Well, the truth is, I made it seem like we're doing the nasty but we're not. Pati thoughts ko binabase ko sa sitwasyon para naman magawa ko ng maayos ang aking trabaho. Ah, good take.

🎶 Boss Bitch, Doja Cat

"And cut!" Sigaw ng direktor. Agad ko namang itinulak palayo sa akin ang co-star kong babae. 'Wag niya akong artehan at alam naman niyang trabaho lang 'to. "Ang galing mo talaga, Quinn. It's a pleasure to work with such a talented actress." I know, right? Pasalamat nga 'tong mga 'to at pumayag ako sa role na ganito. Naiilang ako, pero napapayag din nila ako dahil sa dami ba naman ng demands at mga babaeng nato-tomboy sa'kin. "Ikaw na talaga ang biggest star ng bansa."
