She pulled me closer and brought her mouth to mine. I tasted her cherry balm and that familiar Victoria Secret Vanilla Scent. She wrapped her nape on my neck and I kissed her back slowly. I stopped when I was out of breath.

We are about to continue when my phone rang. It was my college bestfriend, Raya, calling.

"Next time" I whispered and kissed her cheeks. She gently slapped my ass, gave me a smack and winked at me.

Gosh I need to drink less to avoid making out with random strangers. Masyado na ako napapadalas sa mga bar. It's my third time this week.

I sighed. I'm so self destructive.

I answered the call and she told me na puntahan ko s'ya. I couldn't understand her so I decided to find her and I immediately saw her. She's sitting on one of the bar's benches.

"You sober? I need a drive" She is now tipsy. Inakbayan ko sya... it's hard to take care of your drunk friends.. that's why oftentimes I control my liquor intake. I'm always the friend who drives and takes care of them.

I dropped Raya off her house. She's still living with her parents kaya minsan, pumupunta ako sa kanila pag nagugutom at wala na akong oras mag-luto. Sobrang puno na kasi ng schedule ko dahil kailangan kong magpakabusy lagi.

I'm a survivor of ADHD, it was a mild one.. but I freak out when I'm not functioning.

I drove off to my house after successfully taking care of Raya. Thankfully there's no traffic. Madaling araw na at may pasok ako bukas ng tanghali. Tama nga ang sinabi ni Raya, napaka self destructive ko. Buti hindi naapektuhan ang grades ko.

Sinabunutan ko ang buhok ko nung naalala ko ang nangyari kagabi.

I made out with.... damn. I cannot believe I've done that.

I'm also a little tipsy but I was on the right mind. Konting hilo lang. I'm trying my best to stay in balance when I reached my floor. Kinakapa ko kung nasan ang susi ko habang naglalakad. I smiled when I found it. But my smile immediately wiped off when I saw.. that person.

Anong ginagawa n'ya dito? Bakit s'ya nag iintay sa pinto ko?

"You're just coming home now?" Tanong niya "It's 1 AM. I've been waiting here for a few hours. My battery even drained"

"What are you doing here?"

This person's face is the least thing I want to see tonight. I even got drunk because we made out last night and it was a big big big mistake. It's enough that I have a huge self-problem. Tapos ngayon dadagdag pa s'ya?

Hindi ako galit sa kan'ya. Galit ako sa sarili ko. At isa pa hindi ko alam kung pano siya haharapin sa nangyari kagabi.

Nag iwas s'ya ng tingin "May naiwan lang ako kagabi. Kukunin ko lang"

Tumango ako. Ano ba yung naiwan nya at nag intay pa siya sa bahay ko? Ang determined naman n'ya kung ganon. Tsaka isa pa, hindi ba siya na-awkward-an?

Binuksan ko ang bahay ko "Kunin mo na ang gusto mo kunin"

I temporarily closed the door kasi ramdam ko ang hangin na pumapasok sa condo ko. I sighed because we're on the same room again. Alone. Without any people.

"Why are you home so late? You're partying at the weekdays now?" Tanong niya

I sighed. I'm so tired.
