TLH Special Chapter
Xera Thompson

“Are you sure you’re gonna drive alone?” This is Cielo on the phone.

“Yeah, don’t worry about me Ciel. I’m a big girl now.” Bahagya pa akong napangiti sa pag-baby sa’kin ng kakambal ko, to think magka edad lang kami. Of course we’re twins.

I am here alone in the bar tonight. After the scene earlier with Zy, I’m quiet sad. Ayoko mang ipahalata, but it really hurts. Ciel’s still not quite aware of what’s happening between Zy and me, she just knew that I have a thing with Zy. Ayoko lang mag alala pa sya masyado and I don’t think it’s necessary for her to know the details, especially now that we’re…uhm…over. Because technically, we haven’t started in the first place. I never had her heart. And that’s it, that’s why I am here, drinking alone.

“Xera, I can pick you up later. Just tell me where you are, I’ll go there…” Ciel’s voice is so sweet when it comes to me. Funny how she bully and throw pranks at me for almost every time, but for a sister, she’s so perfect when it comes to protecting me.

“Ciel, promise I’ll be fine. I’ll bring myself home later. Don’t worry too much. Gosh, you really are babying me.” I chuckled and I heard she her sigh on the other line.

“Alright then, please come home not later than 12 midnight.”

“What? Ciel I am not your baby Cinderellla!”

“Oops, that’s final.” She said. Gosh, daig pa si Mama. Samantalang sya swerte na kung umuwi sya ng 5am. Minsan nga hindi na sya nakakauwi the whole night.

“Fine mother! Just make sure I’ll see you at home too. Baka naman mamaya ikaw ang wala sa bahay.” We’re talking about our condo unit. We have agreed on one rule bringing any take home guys or gals at home is prohibited. Maybe that’s the reason Cielo always chooses to spend the night outside. Hindi kasi mapigilan ang makipag one night stand sa kung sino ang matipuhan nya.

She chuckled on the other line. “Alright baby.” Oh yeah, she calls me baby and I call her ‘baby’ too sometimes when I am in the mood. “Don’t drink too much and drive home safely.”

After two hours of drinking cocktails and turning down a dozen of guys, I decided to go outside. Maaga pa para umuwi, gusto ko pang magpahangin at mapag isa. I sit on my car hood while looking at ramdom strangers walking along the streets. May mga magkasintahan na nag uusap sa tabi tabi, at sa madidilim na bahagi ng lugar. May mga nag aabang ng masasakyan pauwi, may mga kumakain sa restaurants sa kabilang kalsada.

Napatingala nalang ako kahit walang mga bituin sa langit. Parang tangang napatawa kapag kuwan. Natatawa ako dahil para akong nagdadasal ngayon.

“What’s wrong with me?” I asked looking at the dark sky above. “Bakit hindi nila ako pinipili…” At malungkot akong napayuko. Somehow, I know this won’t be permanent. Makikita ko rin ang taong para sa’kin. But tonight, I think I need to go home.

Tumayo ako mula sa pagkakaupo sa hood at hinanap ang susi ng kotse sa bag na dala ko. Abala sa paghahanap at muling napangiti ng makita ko iyon.

Nasa tapat na ako ng pintuan ng sasakyan ng may bumangga sa’kin dahilan para mabitiwan ang susi na aking hawak.

“Damn!” Pag minamalas ka nga naman. Mukhang napunta sa ilalim ng car yung susi tapos nasa dress ako, ang pangit naman kung tutuwad ako para kuhanin ko iyon.

“Xera…” I heard a familiar voice.

Napatingin ako sa pinag mulan ng tinig. “Grey? Oh you’re here.”

Ofcourse I know her. Sila ng kakambal nyang si Gabrielle. Alam na alam ko rin kung sino si Grey at sino si Gab sa kanila. Bakit? Coz I have a thing with Grey too. I know right, I have a thing with difficult people. Zy for being hard headed and babaero. Grey for being crazy, I mean, literally, she is crazy.
