NOTICE ME

PROLOGUE

"Damn that guy! Damn him!" sabi ko sabay lagok muli ng Bacardi

Hindi ko mapigilan ang inis na nadarama.

"Aly! Itigil mo na nga yan!" pigil naman nya na nilayo ang bote ng alak sakin

Sinamaan ko lang sya ng tingin. How can he be this grinch?

"Ibalik mo nga yan!" nakanunot noo ko namang sabi habang nagdadalawa na sya sa paningin ko

"You're drunk, Aly. Tama na." pigil nyang muli atsaka ako marahang tinulak paupo

"Stop okay? Stop drinking because you're already drunk. Stop drinking because of that jerk and most especially... please, Aly, stop begging for that guy's attention." mababakasan ang kaseryosohan mula sa baritono nyang boses maging sa mga titig na ipinupukol nya sakin.

"I don't know. I don't know how." I said while shaking my head

"You don't know because you don't want to know, Aly. Makinig ka, if that guy don't want you then so be it... don't want him too. You don't need to beg for one person's attention when you can have everyone else's." he said while looking directly into my eyes

He's eyes are in plain seriousness that I've never seen ever since I met him. Not until tonight. But everything he said just slip out of my head.

Because I don't want to stop. I don't want to stop asking him to notice me.
