Today's Sunday means Gary's not here pero yung dalawang pulis ay narito. Tuwing Linggo, wala siya sa bahay ayon na rin sa napagkasunduan. Tahimik sa bahay and boredom is now eating me. I get up and decided to go to a bar named Peirasmós, a greek word means temptation.
I was about to ride my Ducati Scrambler when I remember Gary's voice talking about a bullet proof car. In the end, I picked my Audi A4 Quattro. As I drive the car, I can sense that there is a car following me then I remembered na sumunod pala sa akin yung dalawang pulis. Hinayaan ko na lang sila.

The smell of this bar is different from others. Pati yung ambiance niya, napaka-fresh. Hindi ganun kaingay ang loob ng bar dahil puro mga taong nag-uusap lang, no kissing, no flirting, no playing. Lagi akong pumupunta dito if I want to drink with a peace of mind. Sa second floor naman matatagpuan ang maingay na mundo ng isang bar. You can see there the wild dancers on the dance floor, people looking something fun and other stuffs.
"One shot of Jack Daniel's please." kaagad ko naman 'yun kinuha nang inabot niya. I look around and a guy caught my attention. Gary.
"Uy Boss!" tawag pansin niya sa akin at lumapit dito sa counter. Tinanguan ko lang siya at nagrequest pa ng isang shot.
"One shot of tequilla, please." He said. "Pumunta ka na ba sa taas?" tanong nung bartender. I looked at him then to Gary. Umiling ito.
"No plans." Tumawa naman ang kausap. "There are lot of girls waiting for you up there, G."
"Don't mention it, Eitch." Ano ito? Tawagan ng Initials? Call sign eh?
"Boss, what brings you here? Baka mamaya mamedia ka." Wow! Talaga lang ha? Akala ko kasi pader na ako dito eh.
"The bar's private. No medias." I simply answered. He nodded. I looked at the bartender named H.
"Boss? You're working for him G?" He asked with a curious tone. "Yeah. I'm his bodyguard?" Gary answered.
"A what? Seriously, Gary?" then he laughed. I frowned. "Any problem with that?" I asked.
"I'm sorry for that Mr. Shin, hindi lang ako makaget-over. A cum laude HRM student named Gary Martinez is just a bodyguard! Hindi naman sa minamaliit ko ang trabaho niya, hindi lang talaga ako makapaniwala." Cum Laude?
"You're a Cum Laude?" Sa pagkakatanda ko, wala iyon sa resume niya.
"Don't look at me like that Boss. Yes, I graduated as a cum laude at hindi ko na siya nilagay sa resume ko kasi alam kong hindi mo ako tatanggapin as a bodyguard. Besides, I hate paper works." he explained. Just... wow. I have a brainy bodyguard.
"Kahit na. I could give you a job better than a bodyguard." I'm pissed. Nagsinungaling siya sa akin and I don't fucking know why kung bakit ganito ako makareact. Its Gary's fault!
"Boss-" the emcee of the bar cutted him.
"And for the last song, may we request for G to sing us a song together with the one and only, the divine of the night, Beatrice!"
"Oy G! Kanta ka daw kasama si Hot Chick! Hahaha." Doon ko lang narealize na si Gary pala ang tinawag na kakanta. "Shut up, Fucktard."
"Boss, excuse lang ha. May you enjoy the night, see you around!" The people inside this floor cheered Gary and that girl with the sluttest dress ever, Beatrice. Umakyat sila sa stage, the girl whispered something to Gary that made him laughed. I mentally rolled my eyes. Kakanta na nga lang, maglalandian pa. Argh! What the hell is happening to me?! Bakit ganito yung nararamdaman ko. No. Naaasar lang ako dahil nagsinungaling si Gary. That's it.
I might never be your knight in shining armour I might never be the one you take home to mother And I might never be the one who brings you flowers But I can be the one, be the one tonight
Gary is very cute with his bass guitar. Wait? Did I just say cute? Seriously Keji?!
"One more shot, please." pagtingin ko sa bartender iba na iyon. It's a girl. "Here, Sir." she smiled seductively. Binalik ko na lang ang tingin ko sa stage at pinapanood sila. They are facing each other as they feel the song. Mas dumami naman ang tao dito sa floor. It seems like they are all enjoying the song, except for me.
If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do Then baby, I'm perfect Baby, I'm perfect for you And if you like midnight driving with the windows down And if you like going places we can't even pronounce If you like to do whatever you've been dreaming about Then baby, you're perfect Baby, you're perfect So let's start right now
Everyone gave them around of applause, except me. I mentally rolled my eyes as I watch them. Beatrice hugged Gary so tight, no. They are hugging each other in front of all people.
"Kiiiiissss!!" people shouted. Bagong kasal lang? Gary just laughed but Beatrice pulled him and give him a kiss. It lasted about 5 seconds. Yes, nabilang ko. Fuck myself! What the hell is happening to me?! I ordered again another shot.
"Miss, isa pa. Miss?" tiningnan ko siya at napakunot ang noo ko nang makita siyang nakatulala at nakatungin sa stage. Tumingin ako doon at nagulat sa nakita. I think, I just witnessed the real world war 3.
"You fucking slut! Gary is mine!" sigaw nung babaeng nananabunot ngayon kay Beatrice. Inaawat lang naman sila ni Gary pero mukhang hindi niya kayang pigilan. He looks very irritated.
"You bitch! Mas mahal pa sa buhay mo ang pagpapaayos ko sa buhok ko! I'll kill you!" I know Gary is cute. Argh. Yeah, he is. Pero hindi ko naman akalain na may mga babaeng kayang magpatayan para lamang sa isang lalaki. Pathetic.
"Two of you, stop!" Gary shouted pero hindi siya pinansin ng dalawa. Maya-maya pa'y may mga lumapit ng bouncer ang dalawa. The guy named H came to the stage,laughing. May sinabi si Gary sa kaniya na mas nagpatawa dito. Really? What's with Gary?
Teka lang, Gary has a girlfriend!
