How do you fall in love?
Harder than a bullet could hit you
How do we fall apart?
Faster than a hairpin trigger

I was pretty sure I don't have a sex video.

Eros and I, we're a wild couple but never have we ever thought of filming ourselves having sex. That's fucked up! If anything, baka pa sexy photos ang lumabas mula sa 'min. We have a lot of that, but never a fucking sex video.

Kaya hindi ko na pinagtuunan ng pansin ang text. Hindi ko na rin sinabi kay Eros dahil wala namang kwenta.

We're nearing the final stage of the album making now. Photoshoots at apat na music video pa ang kailangang tapusin. We also have a release date. Napagdesisyunan iyon matapos magrecord at maarrange ng mga kanta. Maglalabas din kami ng teaser soon. The album will come out on April and it's just February right now.

Nag-aaway pa kami ni Eros dahil nakausap ko na naman si Sky Quezon. Apparently, he has also interned in Dekada at sa kanya rin nanggaling yung graphic design ng album cover namin. We talked once and I told Eros about it. But the motherfucker turned sour on me.

Just like right now. I was having a peaceful lunch in a diner just outside Dekada when Sky Quezon appeared. Said he was around to get something at the company, then he saw me and decided to approach. Alangan namang tabuyin ko? May itatanong din naman ako tungkol sa cover design ng album kaya pinaunlakan ko na ang pakikipag-usap.

Ang kaso, may nakatayo sa labas ng diner. Galit ang mga mata at nakapasok sa loob ng bulsa ang mga kamay, titig parang hindi ako yung mundo niya. Kung bakit siya nandyan at kung paano niya ako nakita mula sa glass wall gayong nasa sulok ako ng diner ay hindi ko alam.

When he got satisfied throwing me a hard stare, his eyes snapped at the man I was with and gave him a murderous look. Poor Sky was oblivious that someone out there was already killing him inside his mind. Kaya naman bago pa makahakbang papasok si Eros sa kinaroroonan namin ay nagpaalam na ako't tumayo, leaving my not-even-half eaten meal on the table.

My boyfriend had a stern expression as I approached. Hindi niya tinanggal ang tingin sa akin hanggang sa nasa harapan niya na ako. "You didn't text me," bukas ko ng usapan.

But he only tipped his head to the right, dictating me to go first and he'd follow behind. Nangunot ang noo ko at sumunod na lang para hindi na mag-away. Eros when mad is sarcastic as fuck. Mabilis akong mapikon kapag gano'n kaya as much as I can, hindi ko pinapatulan ang galit niya.

I tried to hold his hand when we entered Dekada but he walked past me and pressed the elevator button.

Alright.

I heaved a deep breath.

"Kumain ka na ba?" I asked.

"Pakialam mo?"

My lips parted. Uminit ang pisngi ko sa namumuong inis lalo na nang pumasok siya sa elevator matapos akong matahin patagilid. I glared at him as I entered the elevator as well. Prente niyang pinindot ang close button habang iniignora ang mga titig ko kaya tuluyan na akong nainis.

"Tinatanong kita nang maayos! Stop giving me the attitude!"

"Oh, were you asking me?" He acted surprised. "Thought you're rehearsing what you'd say to that guy you were sitting with. Who's he again?"

"I didn't go there with him-"

"Ah, your ex. How could I forget?" He smiled sweetly.

"Stop cutting me off!"
