CHAPTER 4: THE MORNING AFTER
Nagising si Jade dahil sa ingay na naririnig niya na mula sa labas, na akala mo'y mayroon pumasok. Hindi niya na dapat papansinin kung sino ang pumasok nang maala niyang siya lang pala mag-isa, kaya naman tuluyan na siyang bumangon at akmang aalis na sa kama ng mapagtanto niya na hindi niya pala kwarto iyon.
"Shocks, this is not my room. Nasaan ako?" She said while roaming her eyes around the bedroom, indeed this is not her room. Wala yung messy niyang table na puro paperworks, mga books na on-going niyang binabasa. It feels like she's in a hotel, a five-star... Wait, hotel? Mas lalo siyang kinabahan, kaya napatingin siya sa sarili niya.
She's doomed, this is not what she's wearing last night. She's panicking and dialed her friend's number, but they are not picking up. Her question right now is what happened last night?
Tahimik siyang sumilip sa labas ng kwarto. He saw a figure of a man, hindi niya ito makita dahil nakatalikod, but definetly he's a man. Kaya't sinara niya ulit ang kwarto. Napasubunot siya sa sarili niya. "Did we had one night stand last night?" she asked, and once again peek, napansin ng lalaki na gising na pala siya. "Ms. Son, you're awake." tila nagulat si Jade sa pagbati ng lalaki, pero mas nagulat siya sa kung sino ito...
It's Anthony Kim.
She's speechless, nakakahiya. They're in the same room, what's worst maybe they had one night stand. Nakakahiya, nakakasuka. She shakes her head in disbelief. "Ah, this can't be! this can't be!" she whispered.
"Good Morning, Ms. Son. The breakfast is ready" He said with all smiles. Baka kaya mabait 'to, dahil nga mayroon nangyari sa kanila? as she thought. "Good Morning," she said in a low tone. "Come, seat. Join me" He invited. She nod, kahit sa totoo lang para wala siyang gana. She wants her to ask what happened last night, pero at the same time parang ayaw na niya malaman, baka isuka niya ang sarili niya, sinong hindi? She just had one nightstand with the father of her student...
pero it's now or never, for her sake, for her peace of mind, she'll ask...
"Mr. Kim, may I ask hmm... what happened last night?" she asked. Anthony looked at her with disbelief. "You already forgot? what happened to us last night?" He said and smirked, mas lalo itong kinabahan dahil tila nang-aasar pa ito when he mention the word Us, she's doomed.
"Yes, I totally forgot. Did I do something horrible? nakakahiya?---"
"We had sex..." He said, and now she feels suffocated, she's having a hard time to breath and digesting everything, those three words made her mind blank.
What the hell?
"Just kidding... No, wala nangyari sa atin. I used a separate room, you can even check my room suite."
"What the hell?! So, walang nangyari sa atin?" She said. Anthony nod. "I was just kidding, okay? Hindi tayo magkakilala, we're not close, and also I respect you. I'm sorry if I pull off that joke, para ka kasing kabado." Anthony said.
