The Only Exception

Song 4: Skyscraper

“Well, I’m on my way. See you at the Antidote in 10 minutes.” I said and hung up without waiting for their replies.

*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*+*

We’ve been having fun for hours now. Guys constantly hitting on us. Especially me. But we always manage to drive them away, pretending we were lesbians and sometimes acting like freaks just to creep them out. (>v<) Yeah. We’re weird and we’re proud.

Mom was right. Spending time with my friends really took my mind off of all the things that have been swirling in it for the last couple of days. Everything was going so well. Well, before the biggest jerk in the whole wide world and his stupid crew walked towards us. (-_____-)

I turned around, ready to walk away when he grabbed my wrist and spun me around to face him.

“Denise, baby. Let’s talk. Please.” He said.

“Nice try Jiro. Let me go.” I said, shaking off his grip on me.

“NO! I WON’T LET YOU GO! IT’S NOT OVER!” He yelled, gripping on my wrist tighter.

“Oh, watch me.” I said and kneed him where the sun doesn’t does’nt shine; where it hurts the most. If you know what I mean. (~~,) And just like a mad man, I dashed out the bar doors.

Akala ko nakatakas na ako. Joke lang pala. (-_____-) Naabutan ako eh. (-_______-) That stupid son of a bitch. Dinala pa pala niya ang mga goons ng dad niya. Andun kasi yung mga goons sa loob eh, pinipigilan yung mga kaibigan ko. Well, it’s not like they’d be able to put that much of a fight against those goons anyway.

Kasama ngayon ni Jiro sina Asher at Eli, mga kabarkada niya. Anung ginagawa nila? Oh, nothing. Just chilling out, holding me back.

“LET.ME.GO!” I spat every word with so much venom.

“No. We need to talk.” He said.
