ALAS-DIES NANG makarating kami sa bar. Kasama ko si Apollo, katulad ng dati. Pagkapasok namin ay nakita agad namin sina Rafa kaya pumunta na kami roon sa couch.

Alonzo is already sitting on the couch when we arrived. Sayang-saya ang buhay ni gago habang sumisimsim ng alak sa baso.

“Tagal niyo, pucha. Nakaubos na kami ng isang bote, oh.” Ani Lonzo at saka itinuro ang isang bote ng Cuervo sa table.

Rafa rolled her eyes at him. “Ikaw naman uminom ng kalahati, eh! Are you that thirsty, huh?!”

Humalakhak kami dahil sa sinabi ni Rafa. When our eyes met, I gave her a teasing smile. Hindi niya ata kasama ngayon ‘yong boylet niya.

“Tama na nga ‘yan, shot na uy! Bawal ang bagal-bagal dito!” Pagsingit ni Fita.

Wala na kaming nagawa, naupo na kaming lahat sa sofa. Himala nga, ang aga nina Spica at Fita ngayon. Madalas ay silang dalawa ang nahuhuling dumating.

“’Wag ka masyadong uminom, ah. Ihahatid mo pa ‘ko,” sabi ko kay Apollo nang siya na ang mags-shot. Tinanguan niya lang ako.

Hindi naman talaga siya naglalasing, pinaalalahanan ko lang ngayon kasi baka makalimot, eh. Nagpatuloy lang kami sa gano'n.

Nang medyo makarami ay nag-aya na si Fita sa dance floor. At dahil magkatabi kami ay ako ang unang niyang nahatak. Nagpahatak naman ako.

Nagsayaw kami ni Fita sa gitna. ‘Di pa man din nagtatagal ay may lumapit na saamin na mga kakilala. Nahiwalay ako kay Fita.

I just found myself dancing with a new bunch of people. They're all familiar so I didn't mind. I even recognized one of them. Cheerleader sa DLSU.

“Oh, hi Adi!” Bati ng kasama no'ng cheerleader.

“Hi!” hindi ko siya kilala.

“I'm Elsie, by the way,”

“Oh, nice to meet you Elsie,” I greeted back. I noticed that the crowd I'm in is their circle.

Nag-sayaw ako kasama sila habang nag-uusap narin. I didn't follow wgat happened next. Nakita ko nalang ang sarili ko na nasa bandang gilid na ng dance floor, a friend of Elsie gave me a red cup which I accepted.

She leaned closer to me to say something. Malakas kasi ang music kaya hindi kami magkarinigan. “I'm Hera,”

“Adi, thanks for this,” itinaas ko ang cup na ibinigay niya saakin. She just smiled at me, hindi parin inilalayo ang sarili saakin.

I can sense this. My radar is always on for situations like this. I smirked. She started dancing while her body is still close to mine.

Nakisakay lang ako at sumayaw na rin habang hawak ang red cup. I don't really mind if she's flirting with me. I mean, situations like this happens sometimes.

The crowd became wilder when the DJ played another hoe anthem. Naging dahilan iyon para mas mapalapit sa'kin si Hera.

I gulped when I realized that her face is inches closer to me. She smirked at me while looking at my lips. I know what she wants.

She began to close the space between our faces. I closed my eyes when she suddenly cupped my face and kissed my lips.

I held her shoulder because her kiss was so intense. She moved her lips that made me respond to her kisses.
