Chapter Forty two

KILLANI WOKE UP feeling a bit dizzy, now that was a first time. For her at least, her friends didn't get drunk tho sakaniya lang umepekto ang Soju. Drinking wasn't even a part of her plan at the first place but being with those bitches for how many years she should've known that alcohol will never disappear.

She looked around then quickly realized that she's in Gab's room, kung may isang parte ng bahay na palaging hindi umiiba ito 'yun. Ewan niya sa babaeng 'yun adik siguro sa pag gawa ng make over sa sariling bahay, kinuha ng dalaga ang cellphone saka tinignan kung anong oras na ba.

12:59

Well, it's still early, pwede pa siyang pumunta sa kompanya nito. She has to check about what's going on inside her company, kaya naman ay bumangon na ito saka tumungo sa kubeta. Wala siyang planong pumunta muna sa bahay dahil siguradong gising na ang dalawang 'yun.

After showering, she immediately went inside Gab's walk-in-closet. Hindi naman 'yun madamot sa damit kaya okay lang naman, plus, she used to stay here before whenever she doesn't feel like going home because of ano nga Didrik.

Pagkalabas niya sa kwarto ng kaibigan ay kaagad niya naman itong nakita sa salas na kaharap ang laptop. "Busy?" Tanong nito.

Gabrielle's gaze went to her then back to her laptop. "Not really. You're not planning on going home, aren't you?"

See? She knows her very well.

"Not until this afternoon, I have work kasi." Simpleng sagot niya bago kinuha ang isang toast sa lamesa na ginawa siguro ng kaibigan kanina.

"You need a ride? I can drop you off."

"Well, sino ba ko para tumanggi? Ikaw naman talaga ang driver ko simula noon."

"Tangina mo."

Napatawa si Killani dahil sa sinabi ng kaibigan, she once again looked around then realized that they're the only people there. Nasaan na ang dalawang 'yun?

"If you're wondering why Airelle and Gleisey aren't here, well nagkaroon ng emergency shoot si Gleisey like what the fuck how can that possibly be existing? Paano pag lasing pala 'yun? Anyway, si Airelle naman ay may trabaho sa part-time job nito sa isang coffee shop."

"Ano ba talaga ang trabaho ng isang 'yun?"

Gabrielle chuckled. "Dora sa umaga, sirena sa gabi. If you know what I mean." Killani can't help but to also laugh, that's their inner joke.

"E ikaw? Wala kang trabaho?"

"This is it, Killani." Gab pointed at her laptop. "Doing my commission."

Gabrielle has been doing commissions since when they're in high school, she really does loves drawing anime characters. Dahil marami ring na hook sa anime, her skills in drawing weren't wasted. That was her source of savings, it's honestly genius.

"Gab, you know that I can feature your works sa company ko. Para mabigyan ka ng mas malaking exposure."

To be frank, that was her plan but the only problem is that Gab doesn't seem interested.

"Shy type ako, ayoko niyan."

"Hindi ko alam kung nagsasabi ka ng totoo e." Killani said, but Gab just shrugged her shoulders. "Whatever, sabihan mo lang ako pag gusto mo na. I mean, I'm just like one call away."

"Sure, ready ka nang umalis? You can order lunch naman doon diba?"

"Yep, let's go." Sabay na silang tumayo at kaagad namang kinuha ni Gab ang susi ng sasakyan nito.
