I entered the bar confidently. The loud music makes me dance to the beat slighty. I wave my hand after seeing my friends looking at my direction. Agad akong lumapit sa kanila.

"Hayme!" I shouted, greeting my dearest bestfriend.

"The fuck Ari! It's Jaime! Jeymi!" He snorted— emphasizing the correct pronunciation of his name.

"Whatever Hayme!" I said not minding his whines. "Hi Kira! Ameena! Joyce!" I said before sitting beside Hayme.

"You look awesome girl!" Puri ni Kira. I wink at her and smile.

"As always." Mayabang kong sabi.

"I'm awesomer." Jaime joined in.

"Shut the fuck up Hayme." I hissed.

"Inggit." Aniya. I rolled my eyes.

"I'm not. Ikaw na awesomer." I said before drinking the margarita in the table.

My face crumbled at the taste. Hindi parin ako sanay sa lasa ng alcohol.

"Why do you wanna hang out?" Joyce asked.

I shrugged and smirk. "What do you think?"

I know they know why. After years of friendship they know me.

"Oversleep ka na naman no? You didn't attend your class kanina." Ameena said, slightly laughing.

"Kailan ba hindi nag-oversleep iyan?" Jaime said, teasing me. I just rolled my eyes and keep my mouth shut.

"Anyways, mom wants to invite you in our house." I look at Joyce, nagtataka.

"Why? May occasion ba?" takang tanong ni Ameena. Joyce shook her head.

"Uh. No. No. No. Gusto niya lang tayo ipagluto." I smiled widely at that.

"So sweet of Tita. Tell her I'll give her a kiss if I saw her." They all cringed.

"Iww." Hayme said, exaggerated.

"OA." I said before drinking my fourth glass of margarita. I have a high tolerance for alcohol so I'll be fine. Kuya Jers here also so I don't need to worry on how to go home.

I don't care! I love it!
I don't care! I love it! I love it!

I dance wildly on the dance floor. Not minding the people around me. My friends are nowhere to be found. I guess they're with their boylet now. Hayme stay at our seat. That gay really doesn't know how to enjoy.

He always stay at our seat when we are at the bar. I don't know why. Pero ang lagi niyang sinasabi sa amin ay responsibilidad niya kami bilang kalahating lalaki. Taga-bantay raw siya incase something bad happen.

I know he's keeping an eyes on us. Really. I always see it. Ang kalahating babaeng 'yon, sobrang swerte namin don.

Napahinto ako sa pagsasayaw ng may humapit sa bewang ko. I turn around and saw a smirking man at me. He thinks it makes him handsome? It's creepy.

I pushed his chest for space. Napangisi siya lalo. Ang creepy talaga. Ramdam ko ang biglaang pagpisil niya ang bewang ko kaya bahagyang nanlaki ang mga mata ko.

How dare this fucking slut man touch me?

Bago ko pa masapak ang lalaking nasa harapan ay may braso ng pumulupot sa balikat ko.

"Hands off, bro." Malamig na sabi ni Jaime. The man stiffened at agad na tinanggal ang kamay sa bewang ko.

"Peace bro." Sabi niya at agad na umalis.
