"Go ahead!! Enjoy muna kayo dyan! I'm okay. You listen to your Mom na baka pagalitan ka pa." I smiled shortly.
"Babawi ako, Cal. Merry Christmas ulit, pakisabi rin kay Tita! I miss you..."
"I miss you more. Kain ka marami, ah? Byeee!" I waved good bye.
"Ikaw rin. Ingat kayo dyan! Sa susunod na pasko, magkasama na tayo." He said before hanging up. I sighed deeply before going downstairs to eat.
"Merry Christmas, nak!" Mommy said.
"Merry Christmas, Ma." I kissed her cheek. Ang lungkot din pala kapag dalawa lang kayo 'no? Ang tahimik saka wala masyadong ingay.
"Kain na tayo." she said before sitting down in front of me.
I'm a bit sad, 'di ko alam kung bakit. Lecheng hormones.
Gab called me and she greeted me 'Merry Chistmas' as well. She asked me if she can sleepover here in our house. Of course I agreed. Wala na nga kaming kasama tatanggi pa ba 'ko?
She told me she'll be here in less than an hour so I cleaned my room and asked permission to my Mom. She always says yes to Gab.
Kakatapos ko lang maglinis nung may kumatok sa aking pinto.
"Hi siz! I have a gift for you!" she said while handing me a paper bag.
"Hala ano 'to?" I smiled while opening the gift slowly.
"Ano ka ba sana 'di ka na nag abala. Hmm, ano kaya 'to- PINK GIN?!" tawa siya ng tawa saakin.
"Siraulo ka 'pag nalaman 'to ni Mommy patay ako 'don. Inaka pink gin amp."
"Basic lang 'yan. Hindi naman nakakalasing ang pink gin, eh."
"Malaan ko sayo mamaya kapag nalasing ka papainom ko sayo suka mo."
"Omg! I'm so excited hahahaha! Walang malalasing, ah!" she proudly said.
"Try me." pag hahamon ko sakanya.
We started drinking a few shots and ang daldal na ng kasama ko.
"Alam mo kasi, we always lose the people we love..."
"Pinagsasabi mo? Sabi ko anong course mo sa college people we love ka dyan." natatawa kong sabi habang pinagmamasdan siyang nakatungo lang.
"When you love someone...you don't open your heart...you open up your legs HAHAHAHA"
"Matulog ka na bwisit ka ang dugyot!"
"Where's my phone? Can you call Alonzo, please?" she said while pouting.
"Lasing ka na kamo HAHAHAHAHA!" I said before giving her another shot.
"No, Cali! I was drunk? Never. Shut up, you give me my phone I'll call my boyfriend!"
"Ex-boyfriend, dumb ass." I gave her the phone and said, "Don't do something you might regret tomorrow!" I warned her.
"Matagal na akong may regrets, this is the right time to do it!!" she said while browsing her contacts.
"Alright, walang sisihan bukas, ha?" I chuckled.
