“Fuck,” I groaned in silence, pulling my hair down till it hurt me.

Gusto kong umiyak sa katangahan ko. Gusto kong ipabugbog ang sarili ko sa kanto. Gusto kong pagsasampalin ang mukha ko hanggang sa mamaga ito. Kalbuhin ko na lang kaya ang sarili ko?

“I am the worst,” I mumbled, feeling so madly bad.

I bit my lower lip before gazing on the right side of my bedroom. It is dark and cold. Well, I feel cold because I am not wearing a thing! I pulled the sheet to cover my upper body. Then, I look at the man that's lying beside me, sleeping tightly on the left side of my bed.

“Agh!” I groaned, facing ahead as I palm my face, closing my eyes hard.

Ang sarap kong sakalin. Ang sarap niyang sakalin!

“What the heck am I doing?” I questioned myself before sighing to calm down a bit. “Anong oras na ba?”

I looked at the digital clock that's on the bedside table and it says that it is three fourteen in the morning.

“Damn,” I muttered, getting on to my feet.

I decided to take an early bath and readied myself for work. Before leaving the room, I faced him, wanting to seriously hit him hard on the head or to just cover his face with a pillow. God! Help me! I am so mad at him. I am so mad at myself for letting it happen again! Ano bang nangyari? Paano na naman ba kami napunta sa ganito?

“Fuck you, Jacob,” I cussed before leaving.

A las cuatro y media pa lang nang makasakay ako sa sasakyan ko. Walang traffic kaya mabilis kong narating ang building ng company. I was about to drive into the parking lot but the fact that it feels so empty, quiet and gloomy made me back off. It's just ten to five in the morning. I am not saying that there is no person that's already in it, but the employees that are, have no cars. I mean, don't get me wrong, I am not criticizing, I am just telling you that the employees with cars are arriving later than those who have none, as they needed to commute to get here. Ano bang sinasabi ko? Ang point ko lang naman is, oo na, natatakot nga ako! Ang dami ko pang sinasabi eh. Mamaya na nga ako papasok, kakain na lang muna ako.

“That piece of shit,” I muttered in anger.

Gosh! God, help me forget that bastard even just for a short while. Upon remembering what had just happened last night, it definitely is giving me a headache, goosebumps — a heartache. I just... can't believe him.

“Oh, I can't believe me, goodness! I cannot believe myself! Ugh!” I groaned inside my car before stopping by the parking lot of a fast-food restaurant, grumping obviously like a kid. “I am so pissed off of him!”

Lahat yata ng pagdadabog ay nagawa ko na hanggang sa makapasok ako sa loob ng makakainan ko. Hanggang sa pag-order ko ay nadala ko ang kainisan ko sa baklang iyon, nasungitan ko tuloy si ate na tumanggap ng order ko. I chose a breakfast meal and a coffee. Ewan ko ba sa sarili ko at pati ba naman sa bilog na bilog, makinis at maputing itlog ay inis na inis ako at ang sama ng tingin ko. Kakainin na nga lang, nabwiset pa ako. Parang gusto ko na lang magwala sa sobrang pangit ng simula ng araw ko eh.

“Ang itlog, kinakain, hindi sinasamaan ng tingin o sinisimangutan.”

My furrowed eyebrows had automatically vanished when this woman spoke, sitting on the seat in front of me with her own meal.

“What are you doing here?” I inquired, not minding what she said.

“I saw your car parked outside and I assumed that you might need a company,” sabi nito sabay subo sa pagkain niya.
