SEMESTER BREAK
Today was the day.
December 14.
I swear...everytime this day comes near..it's like I can't breathe. Like I'm suffocating.
And now...here I am.
I'm here drinking another glass of alcohol. Because I don't wanna feel anything today. I don't want to remember anything about today. Pang ilang baso ko na ba 'to?
I don't even know what time it is. I wasn't even supposed to go out today. But for some reason eh nilabas ako nitong mga paa ko at sabi ay iinom daw sa bar. So go!
Umilaw ang cellphone ko ulet na naka patong sa table, beside my glass.
Paris calling....
Tinignan ko lang ito ulet. I let it ring. She'll probably pick me up if I answer the phone. Eh ayoko. Gusto ko uminom.
"So what's a pretty girl like you drinking out here alone?" Tanong nung bartender. "Boy problems?"
"Nah..." I shake my head.
"hmm...ayun usually reason ng mga ganyan dito eh."
"Well not me."
"Right. Well let me know if you want another glass"
He's cute. Dark hair, medyo dark ang aura, tall. Kinda my type.
"Macallan. Neat."
Someone sat beside me. Pero hindi ko na ito tinignan. Naka tingin lang ako sa baso ko.
"Coming right up!" Sabi ni kuyang bartender. Huminto ito sa harap ko kaya tumingala na ako. He points at my glass. "Another round?"
Ay oo nga paubos na inumin ko.
Pinag isipan ko muna for a few seconds before moving the glass towards him. "You know what...hell yeah. Go. Punuin mo kuya."
Tumawa naman ito "Dahan-dahan..."
Tahimik lang akong naupo dito habang hinihintay sya. Then he comes back with two glasses.
Grabe tinotoo nga 'yung puno. Shot puno eh.
Medyo nahihilo na nga ako eh.
"Kuya isang bote na." Tawag ko— ay..wala pala sya. Sige kabalik.
And once again...my phone buzzes.
Paris calling...
Ano ba naman 'tong babaeng 'to? Over sa clingy!
Again...I let it ring. I know she's worried pero kaya ko naman ang sarili ko. Nahihilo man ako, but I can go home just fine, i'm sure. Or i'll let that cute bartender guy take me home.
I laughed at that thought.
"Aren't you gonna answer that?" The girl beside me spoke.
"Nahh."
"Well she seemed pretty eager to talk to you"
Lumabas nanaman ulit ang pangalan nya sa phone ko. Tumatawag ulit. Seriously?
I groaned at kinuha na cellphone ko. Hindi ko pa din ito sinagot. Nag dnd ako hehe...
"Peace." I muttered as I tossed my phone back on the table.
"That's cold." The girl beside me commented.
I let out a small laugh. "You have no idea."
That's when I finally looked at her.
