The Perks of Loving a Faust (Perks Series #1)

I'm still upset and I hate this feeling. Is it my fault that I'm here? That I came with them? They should be thankful to me becuase if I didn't come with them there will be no bar for the both of them for tonight.

No bar means no girls. No girls means no fun! But what do I expect from them? They were my brothers. They were my shitty brothers at all. They weren't normal brothers, they were abnormals. And I don't really get Enero for being a stupid jerk earlier.

"Give me your best seller for the month," I said when the waiter looked at me as I sit on the counter bar. I didn't wait for him to ask me what would I get for this night.

Tutal, nagtalo naman kami ng magaling kong kapatid. Why would not I take this as an advantage? Of course, he wouldn't stop me from drinking and getting myself drunk all the way because first of all, we fought and he doesn't have his guts to approach me.

I knew January so well. I know that he wouldn't say the magic word to me. Not even for once, even if we fought like this. What do I expect? Boys is always boys. And they do not know how to say 'sorry'.

"Here's your Margarita ma'am," I nodded at the waiter as he puts the liquor in front of me.

I saw a blue liquid that is somehow looked like a shake, with a straw on it, a sliced of lemonade was on its glass mouth. It looks great and I think it tastes great.

Tumingin ako sa dance floor na ngayon ay nagsisimula nang mapuno. Its getting late at night and here, its getting wild. May mga babaeng sumasayaw na animo'y isang bayarang babae kung sumayaw. May iba naman na rock and roll ang dating. Well, I do not mind at all. They have their own lives. Its their own choice.

I take a sipped from my drink. As I taste the liquor, muntik na akong masuka. What the hell is this? This is their best seller of the month? This weren't tastes good. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang lasa. I couldn't even know what kind of taste is this one had.

I sighed as I take another sipped. Sa pagkakataon na 'to, sinubukan ko nang lunukin yung alak. Like the other liquors, gumuguhit sa lalamunan ko ang lasa ng alak na nainom ko. That is way better than my first try. Although, the taste sucks. Ang tapang!

Pagkakataon ko na 'to para malasing. This is my only chance to get wasted, to be happy and to forget those shitty things my brothers did to me. Oh boy, how I hate having them in my life!

"One more Margarita please, and your another best seller," I said as I emptied the glass of my Margarita.

Nakakaramdam na ako ng pagkahilo. Maybe because of that Margarita. Hindi ko alam kung gaano kalakas ang tama ng alak na 'yon, but I don't care at all. All I want is to get myself drunk for tonight.

"Margarita and Bloody Mary for you ma'am,"

I was about to drink my Margarita again when someone sat beside me. Nang tignan ko ito ay nakita ko ang isang lalaking sa tingin ko ay kasing-edaran ko lang.

He's looking at the waiter before he says, "Can I have the same drinks as her?" and pointed his fingers on me.

Who is this guy?

"Hi, being alone in a bar isn't right. And getting yourself drunk is totally not right." kumindat pa siya sa'kin matapos niyang sabihin 'yon.

I looked at him closely. Mayroon siyang kulay gray na buhok, in a faded cut. Which suits him because he have what? Like diamond skin? Kumikinang sa puti. Mayroon siyang makinis na kutis, matangos rin ang ilong niya, may magandang mata na may mahabang pilik mata, makapal ang kilay, tapos pink yung labi niya which makes me jealous because it looks nice. Tapos yung adam's apple niya, perfect!
