Rest In Peace, My Love (PolArm/BigArm)

Six (6)

Day by day, I tried my best to move on and forget about him. My routine everyday is working, come home and sleep. I try to live my life the same as before I met Pol. Know it's gonna be hard but I have to try.  

"Ai Arm. Join us at the bar tonight. Don't act like an old man who just stay at home and doing nothing. Can you stop being like this? That asshole will not come back to you. He probably got  married to that girl.", I was stunned when Tay mentioned Pol name but I act like I didn't heard him.

"Too lazy.", I shortly replied.

"Hey. You're not working tomorrow. Why not having drinks with me tonight? Please... Na na?"

Tay keep begging me and making a cute face. I rolled my eyes and finally agreed. Maybe I should try to go out sometimes. As we reached the bar Tay hold my hand and drag me along to a table which some of his friends already arrived. They pour some of the alcohol into a small glass and give it to me.

"Sorry, I'm late."

I lifted my head to see a guy with a ponytail come approached our table. He's also looking at me.

What? Is there something on my face?

"Hey, Big. It's okay. Come sit.", Tay said.

The guy smiled and casually sit besides me. I don't know why but there's another empty seats next to their other friend but why he chose to sit besides me?

Tay and his friends are talking and laughing. I didn't talk at all and just keep drinking the alcohol. Suddenly the guy name Big talked to me.

"I'm Big. What's your name?"

I looked at him and pointed at myself. He smiled and nodded.

"Arm."

He repeated my name. "Nice name."

Is he trying to flirt me? I slightly smile.

"We've met before. Remember?"

We did? I was confused.

He chuckled when I showed him my confused expression. "We did. We ran into each other at the university long time ago."

I tried to recall. "Oh! It was you."

"Yes.", He said.

"Sorry. I didn't recognize it was you."

"It's okay. Now you know."

I slightly nodded. He just kept staring at me. I know but I just ignore him. 

Suddenly my phone buzzed. Unknown number.

'Hye, Arm. How are you? I hope you're okay. Did you find a new boyfriend? I hope you did. I would be so worried if you didn't. Take care na. I love you.'

I hold my fist tightly. I deleted the message from him. I know it's Pol. Who else if it's not him. Shut off my phone and pour another alcohol into my glass. I'm so mad right now. How dare him to say that to me? After he dumped me? How could him?

After another glass, I took another one. Tay and Big already looking at me with their worried face.

"Arm. That's too much.", Tay said.

"Right. Take it easy.", Big said after that.

"It's okay. I can take it.", I replied.

I don't know how many glasses I have. All I remember was me got drunk then passed out. When I wake up I'm already in my bed.

"You've woke up?", Tay came in with a bowl of congee and a cup of warm tea. He put it on the table besides my bed.

My head suddenly feel spinning. Of course it's hurt alot. Damn it! I was really wasted last night wasn't I?
