Loey

"Why didn't you tell her to leave?"

"I did tell her that, but she chose to stay. I can't just drag her out of the van, right?"

Dred let out a deep sigh before he leaned against the chair. When he didn't say anything, I stood and got us some juices in the fridge here inside the studio. Good thing that Leigh filled my fridge yesterday. I'll be spending my time for a few days here. He will also come from time to time for the project that he's been working on with me.

Dred stared at me while I was drinking my juice. His lips were in a thin line as he watched me.

"Dude, I'm also not happy to be in this situation. I swear I wanted to curse Karlin and myself," I said, clenching my fist.

He let out another sigh. "She seems to like the situation, though."

I scoffed. "I don't know what she's up to. Though, I wouldn't be surprised if she already knew that this would happen. I guess I still don't know her after all those years."

Napapikit ako nang mariin. Mabuti na lang talaga na pumunta rito si Dredleigh, kahit alam ko na gusto niya akong sermonan kaya siya bumisita. Well, I deserve it anyway. The other members were mad at me because of what happened. We all know that there's nothing new with dating rumors, but I'm married. Also, they are worried about Primrose.

"Loey." I opened my eyes and looked at Dred. "We all know what she experienced while she's in a relationship with Liam. It must be hard for her to watch someone she loves to be linked to some other girls." Dred pursed his lips for a moment and looked away. "I know that you two are not in that kind of relationship...yet, but she's easy to read." He looked at me again. "You know what I'm saying, right?"

I nodded.

"I hope you'll give her the assurance she needed."

"Don't worry, Dred. I will."

Dred patted me before he left. I was really glad that he came.

Hindi ko alam kung ilang beses na akong umikot sa buong studio habang nag iisip. I kept thinking about what Dred said to me. To be honest, I still don't know how I will assure Primrose, especially when we're just married on paper. We both have our own reason why we chose to be in this kind of relationship.

I pulled my hair before I threw myself on the couch. If only I could deny the rumor so that she wouldn't be bothered about it, I would.

Sinubukan kong i-busy ang sarili ko sa mga dapat kong gawin, lalo na sa kantang inaayos ko para sa isang project. My eyes landed on the shredded papers on the floor. I tried to write a song earlier, but my mind was already in chaos. In the end, I sat in front of my desk and played some music on my computer before slouching. If there's something that could calm me that would be the music I love to listen to.

My body tensed. I clenched my fist as I listened to Baron.

"Fuck it, Loey! Do something about that bitch."

As soon as I ended the call, I walked outside to look for someone. I don't care how many times Baron cursed at me, the only thing that registered in my mind was the reason why he was mad. It was the fact that Karlin did something again.

When I saw the girl I was looking for, I immediately walked towards her, grabbed her on her shoulder, and dragged her into an empty and quiet corner.

"Why the fuck did you do that?" I asked.

She removed my hands from her and glared at me. "Wow what a gentle way to greet someone. Hello, Loey," she greeted with sarcasm. "The wife already visited me earlier, and now the husband."
