CLOSE CALL

CHAPTER 1

"I don't believe in love, I believed in fucking."

It's weekend and I planned on just staying inside my apartment instead of going to school.

I want to relax my mind and body from hardships that my part time job and studies caused.

Queer as folk, truly a red flag series.

I'm currently watching bl series on TV while eating chips and drinking a lot of Coke. When I say a lot, I meant a whole case of it.

I'm in a middle of a deep emotion when my phone rang all of a sudden. I rolled my eyes and paused the series before answering it.

"What Jade?" I make sure that I sounded really annoyed.

"Chill, I just want to inform you that we're having a nights out at Tyler's house. He texted me saying that shit again." I breathe hard in despair.

Tyler always does this, kapag tumatawag siya samin o mostly saakin ay hindi niya talaga malilimutang i mention ang ex niyang wala namang pakialam sakanya.

"He's so blind." I said and continue eating chips.

"Yeah yeah. Got to go, may lakad pako and don't forget to bring foods, alam mo namang matakaw yun."

"Ano niya ko? Nanay? Kapal niya ah." I heard him laughed like there's no tomorrow.

"Yeah, whatever. Bye."

I put the phone away at pinagpatuloy ang panonood.

This part of the series hits really hard on me, the top always make out with another guy he met at the gay bar called "Babylon."

While the bottom keeps on coming back to him just because they had a one night stand together. He believes that it's "love" but the top says otherwise.

It took me around 4 hours to finish the 1st season and it's currently 6 PM in the evening.

I took a bath, change clothes and put skincare on before going out to buy some foods to bring at Tyler's so called slumber party.

Since it's already dark and cold outside, I decided to wear yellow hoddie. I can't catch cold because I had a lot of things to do.

Kumuha ako ng push cart at naglibot sa grocery store para maghanap ng kung anong pwede kainin.

V-Cut is one of my favorite chips so I bought lots of it. Same with coke.

My brain is battling wether to buy an Ice Cream or not. Baka kasi tunaw na pagdating sakanila, pahirapan pa namang makasakay ngayun dahil gabi na.

"If I were you, I will buy those who had a multiple flavors." I looked at the man in front of me while picking a flavor.

Kunot noo ko siyang tinignan.

Why is he here?

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, bagay na madalas kung gawin sa kung sino
lalong lalo na sa mga taong hindi ko kilala.

"Why are you here? It's so not you to be in this kind of establishment, I mean, it's cheap right?" I said sarcastically then continue what I'm doing.

I don't want to be near him.

I saw him smirked in my peripheral view.

"Just passing by." He said.

Sa huli ay yung vanilla flavor ang napili kong bilhin.

I breathe hard then turn my head to him. As always I got stunned by how flawless his face is, but it's just it, no more.

"I need to go." I said then walk away to pay.
