Little White of Secrets (Metro Series #2)

Beginning

How do we fall inlove... and how we could ratify and say that it is already? Paano natin malalaman na iyon na nga... na ito na nga? Isn't it when you're having this kind of intense or even a little deep affection towards someone, masasabi mo kaya na ito na nga ba? Would we really know it by ourselves when the right one comes... or not? And... if it a yes, how?

How could we authenticate it? How could we make sure that kind of things and emotion? Paano tayo makakasigurado at kailan natin malalaman kung ito na nga?

Is it when you're in the midst of passivation and silence, you could literally hear your pounding heart? Is it when you have given a little chances to take a glimpse of it, there's a feeling something quiver and fly into rage within you, o sabihin na lang natin sa simpleng salita na ito 'yong pakiramdam na parang may nagwawala na mga paru-paro sa tiyan mo as of the moment.

Is it? Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! He's here... he's here! I panicked inside my mind. Gusto ko nga lang sabunutan ang sarili pagkatapos. Ofcourse he's really here because this is his goddamn house for god sake, Addie Lane!

I licked my lips as I roamed my eyes around inside the house. Tahimik na at iilang ilaw na lang ang nakasindi. From where I am standing, madilim na. Nilingon ko ang kaliwa kung saan pa ang may ilaw, it's their dining kitchen. Sa tapat ko ay ang hagdan nila. The whole living room is only filled of calmness, taliwas sa nararamdaman ko ngayon.

Someone moaned echoed in the whole area. Natauhan ako at napalunok. Nilingon ko ang akay-akay kong si Draia. She closed her eyes tightly as she hold on to me for a balance. You could say that she's really having a hard time to open her eyes.

"Parang babaliktad sikmura ko! Pwe!" reklamo niya.

Inayos ko ang nakapalupot kong braso sa kanya para maalalayan siya lalo. She breath hardly as I smell the alcohol coming from her. Umirap ako. She's really look wasted! Pawis na pawis pa! Lasinggera.

"I will carry you upstairs, okay?" sabi ko.

She only nodded. Still eyes are closed.

"Alright! Let's go, Ads!" she hysterically laughed.

I guide her as she step up. Muntik nang madulas kaya ako na lang ang kumaladkad pataas. "Thank you for taking care of me my dear friend!" she giggled.

I heavily sighed. As if I am her nanny everytime she gets drunk. Basang basa pa siya ng pawis. For the past past years that we've been friend, ganito na palagi ang eksena. Magyaya-ya siya at maglalasing.

The ending would always be my moment. Taga ligpit ng lasing na si Draia. Though, hindi naman ako lang, palagi. There's always Yao, Kit and Avier who will always carry her sometimes at the parking, o diretso na agad dito sa kanila.

"Dito kana matulog, ha! Baka patayin ako ni Kit pag umuwi ka pa ngayon!" sabi niya na tila hindi ko siya naririnig. Para kasing nagrereklamo at sumisigaw pa.

"Faster, you bitch!" I told her.

Tiningala ko ang ikalawang palapag nila. Ilang hakbang pa pero ang bigat na nito! Tumawa siya sa sinabi ko. Kasi naman! Minura ko na lang ang hingal. Buti na lang talaga si Yao ang nag bit-bit sa kaniya kanina papasok sa topdown ko. Mamamatay yata ako sa kunsomisyon pagdating dito, eh!

I already saw the hallway of their second floor. Gusto kong lumingon sa kaliwa kung saan ang diretso at ang pinakadulo na kwarto pero hindi ko ginawa. My eyes only flocked to the white door that has an ancient gold line design to each point. Magka-iba sa plain lang na pinto sa dulo na tinutukoy ko.

My heart pounded like a hammer. Despite of it, I managed to go inside a room without looking left.

"Ads, ha! Sleep here!" Draia said those with a hiccup every words. Nakadapa at nakapikit siyang gumapang sa kanyang queen size bed neverminding her clothes.
