Chapter Nine

__________

I just fixed my room and chill a bit until evening comes, saktong dinner nang bumaba si Trevor, wala si Tito at si Mommy lang ang narito bukod sa amin ni Trevor. Ilan sa mga maids namin ay wala dahil day off nila. Tumulong ako sa pagluto kaya medyo napabilis ang paghahanda.

Si Mommy ang nakikipag-usap kay Trevor na puro about sa business. Habang nasa kalagitnaan kami ng pagkain ay dumating si Pierre na galing daw sa bahay ng kaibigan niya. Maya-maya pa ay dumating na rin si William.

Mas lalong umingay sa hapag dahil kay William na puro tanong kay Trevor. Mukhang nag-eenjoy naman si Trevor dahil pareho silang maraming nasasabi ni William.

"Oh, right! Esther will go out with me tonight, would you like to come with us?" tanong ni Trevor kay William.

Agad na umiling si William. "I'm sorry, I have things to do."

"How about next time?"

"Sure."

Matapos kaming kumain ay naghanda na ako nang sabihin ni Trevor na gusto na niyang lumabas.

Hindi ko alam pero kahit sa pagpasok ko sa sasakyan namin ay sinisilip ko ang cellphone ko. Trevor wanted to drive so I let him. Gumamit siya ng GPS papunta sa isang bar na gusto niya daw puntahan.

"I browsed some places around here online and they said that the bar is popular," Trevor said.

I smiled and nodded. "Yes, though I haven't been there yet."

"Really? Why? It's just around here."

"I don't know. I used to drink beers from the convenience store."

A smile appears on my lips as I remember who I am with every time I'm drinking. The place is maybe cheap but the memories are expensive.

"Is that so? You should try something new. I'll take care of you if you get drunk, don't worry I can hold my drink and I'll not do something stupid," he said and winked. "Clyde will surely kill me. I might not be able to leave this country," he chuckles.

Trevor can make me comfortable. Masyadong magaan ang pakiramdam ko sa kanya na kaya ko siyang pagkatiwalaan sa mga sinabi niyang iyon. It's just that, my first impression about him was that he's a nice guy, a gentleman and that's true.

Nang makarating kami sa bar ay agad kaming kumuha ng table at umorder ng drinks at foods.

Maraming tao at madalas mga magbabarkada na nagsasaya. Nasa gilid na table ang kinuha namin.

"I already bet that you wouldn't like the clubs so I think the bar will do since I want to drink," Trevor said.

"Uh, yeah, since I turned 18 I haven't been in clubs or bars like this," sabi ko dahilan para tumaas ang kilay niya.

"Why? Your parents don't allow you?"

I shook my head. "No, I don't actually know why I didn't think about clubbing. Maybe I should try next time," I smiled.

"I'll be staying here for a month, wanna try some clubs together? With your brothers, of course."

Hindi ko napigilang hindi mapangiti, hindi masamang ideya iyon. Kahit papaano ay gusto ko rin na makasama ang mga magkakapatid na iyon pero ayon lang nga at hindi kami lahat nagkakasundo pero ayos si Clyde. Pero lagi siyang busy kaya mukhang mahirap ayain.

"If we can convince Clyde," I chuckled.

Humalkhak rin si Trevor. "Oh, yeah, he's pretty busy, so it will be hard to get his ass out of his office. But I'll take care of it." He then winked at me.
