Always, My Jade

Calmness (11)

"Hey" bati ni Jade

Gulat pa rin si Althea at tulala.

"Bakit andito ka?"

"Ah, I'm sorry dko pala nasabi sa'yo, Ahm ito ang business ko"

"Oo nga pala nabanggit ni Batchi. I'm sorry. I mean ...Ang ibig kong sabihin kasi late na---"

"---ah akala mo wala na ako, nasabi na rin ba sayo ni Batchi na maaga akong umuuwi?may binalikan lang ako dito"

May binalikan, ano o sino?Althea thought but she just nodded and was about to say something when Jade looked down to examine her leg.

"What happened diyan?saglit kunin ko yong first aid kit" referring to the swollen leg.

"Wag na, I'm fine. D naman masakit."

"Kaya pala you're limping, hindi masakit?" nakangiting tanong sa kanya.

"S-sorry, ok lang naman talaga"

She held Althea's face at napailing, she went outside to get the first aid kit. As soon as Jade's gone, she took the water and drunk it in one shot. Kanina pa siya naiinitan at d mapakali ng dumating si Jade tapos hinawakan nanaman ang mukha niya.

She needs to get out of the room as fast as she can cause she can't trust herself now that she's drunk.

She got up made a few steps when the door swung open and Jade coming in with the first aid kit.

"Where are you going?"

"Ahm, W-washroom?"

"Althea, you know this room in every corner for how long? Don't tell me hindi mo alam kung saan and washroom?!" Kunot noong tanong ni Jade.

"Ah right, this way p-pla."

"Sit down." Utos ni Jade

"M-mag washroom lang ako."

Jade sternly looked at her.

"M-mamya na lang"- Althea

"What happened here?"-Jade

"Ahm mabilis kasi lakad ko, tumabi naman lahat ng sinabihan ko ng "excuse me" pero hindi tumabi yong Mesa kaya binangga ako, kantong kanto kaya medyo natapyasan lang naman balat ko ng konti."- Althea

Ganito ba to pag lasing, lakas ng tama kausap ni Jade sa sarili pero nakangiti at napansin yon ni Althea.

Kalma Althea, don't get too serious baka hindi ka makapag pigil, sa isip ni Althea.

"Nagsawa ka na ba sa drinks namin dito at sa ibang bar ka na uminom. Tubig lang ba ang masarap dito sa amin?"-Jade habang ginagamot si Althea at sabay tingin sa basong wala ng laman.

Napalunok lang si Althea, dahil ba sa tanong niya o sa ginagawa nito sa kanya. Every time Jade touches her, parang may nagwawala sa buong katawan niya.

"S-sorry, hindi naman sa ganon---"

"There ok ka na."

"Thank you again "

"Alam mo mula pa kanina "thank you at sorry"lang naririnig ko sayo at nauutal ka pa talaga"

"I Ahm...m-maybe because I'm wasted and can't think straight?"

Natawa si Jade "is that so, akala ko I'm turning you on"

"What?!"

"Nothing, forget it"

"So how's Batchi, mukhang galit siya"

"Galit talaga siya"

"You want to talk about it?"
