SMS #1: Eros in Taboo (Book 1) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 27

~Same~

I feel normal and live normal with my parents in New York. Nagkaroon kaagad ako ng mga kaibigan sa unang araw pa lamang sa NYU. It was so easy to gain friends, most especially that the people here are so active in building up conversations.

I always put the biggest smile on me when I'm in school and when I'm in front of my parents. Ngunit sa bawat pagpasok ko sa aking bagong silid ay agad kong natutukoy kung anong kulang at kung ano ang nararamdaman kong hindi ko natutukoy kapag nakikita ako ng maraming tao.

I miss my Kuya Priapus. I can't handle the pain of missing him and being away from him. Maybe I should try harder to forget this feeling. Maybe it's not enough. I want to feel something new. Masyado na akong na i-immune sa pakiramdam na ito. I don't want to feel this anymore.

"Three shots again, please," I said smirking at the bartender. Halos ilang buwan na rin at masyado akong komportable sa paglabas at pagpunta sa mga bar bawat gabi. I treated this as my comfort and peace of the place.

I love the deafening music, the cheering, and shouting of people, the dancefloor, and the drinks.

Mas lalong umingay ang loob ng bar nang tumunog ang panibagong tugtog. Lumingon ako sa dance floor habang tinungga ang vodka. I can't believe we are here in Las Vegas! I've witnessed almost all in just three nights. No wonder this place was called the City of Sin!

I can see a lot of activities here that involved clubbing, gambling, and even sex-related activities! Kaya masyado akong bantay sarado ng kaibigan ko.

We started bar hopping at ten in the evening. Hanggang sa tumigil kami sa isang bar dito. The disco lights became dimmer and fast. Lalong nasigawan ang mga tao nang lumabas muli ang usok sa kung saan.

Napangiti ako nang matanaw si Rachel, she's also a Pinay and she has this chinky eyes. Kasama nito si Larke na boyfriend niya. Larke is half Scottish and American and a varsity player in American football.

"Hey, you okay?" tanong ni Rachel nang sumampa sa katabi kong stool. Tumango ako at ngumisi kay Larke nang hapitin niya pa lalo si Rachel palapit sa kaniya bago ito hinalikan sa leeg.

"You've been drinking, where is Chaos?" Larke asked me as he continued dropping little kisses on Rachel's neck.

Nagkibit ako ng balikat bago tumawa. I licked my lips and showing them my other shots of vodka.

"I can manage myself," I said before I drink it straight.

Umiling-iling ang dalawa sa akin bago nagngitian sa isa't-isa, then-poof!

They started kissing each other.

I rolled my eyes before I drink my other last shot. Saktong pagkababa ko ng baso sa bar counter ay siyang naramdaman ko ang brasong pumulupot sa aking beywang. Iginilid ko ng husto ang aking leeg ng magsimula siyang dampian ako ng halik.

I giggled and raised one brow when Rachel and Larke staring at me. I bit my lips seductively to the two of them as they look at us, their forehead creased and Rachel was eyeing me with her famous, are-you-serious look.

Hindi ko na pinansin si Rachel ng maramdaman kong hinalikan niya ako sa aking tainga bago ako binati.

"Hey, you should stop drinking, Aeliana," he whispered in my ears. Napaigtad ako ng kaunti dahil sa hatid nitong kiliti. His husky voice makes me goosebumps.

Naramdaman kong umayos ito sa pagkakatayo sa aking likuran bago niya binati ang dalawang nakamasid lamang sa amin. At ang pagsulputan pa ng kasama namin. Tyler and Jessica. Tyler is a Fil-Am and Jessica? Well, she just raised her eyebrow when she saw me with her famous blonde-bitchy-cheerleader look.
