Excuse Me, Ma'am Wesley

Stacy

I kept on coming back sa office ni Lewis, in hopes of meeting Wesley again. Pero hindi ko ito naabutan palagi. Also, it seems like she's avoiding me purposely. I tried to shrug the sad feeling off, but I also can't help it. I blame myself at what happened. It's my fault naman, this was all my choice.

I'm out in a bar again, drinking my ass off because I'm hurt. Kanina, before I got home, I saw a snap from Lewis that showed me a picture of her, Welsey, and the same woman Wesley went out with noon sa bar. She was holding Wesley's shoulder, closer than I could ever be. Nagtanong ako kay Lewis if she know what's the real score between them, and she just told me that they went out a few times-on a not-friendly-date. It made me sick to my stomach, and it also made me want to bawl my eyes out.

I went and ordered more drinks. Not minding the fact that I'm alone, I'm the one driving, and I don't know what's happening in my surroundings anymore. I just have to get all the sad feelings out, but it's hard for me to open up to anyone without a drink on my system. I need to get intoxicated, I can't shrug off the hurt I felt.

After an hour, or two, I finally felt the world spinning. I tried to get up but when I did, I lost balance and ended up on the table which resulted for it to fall. All the glasses fell into the ground, along with me. I felt a sting on my arm and the next thing I know, people are rushing to help me. I didn't mind what they have to say. I just know that I'm too hurt to function right now. One of the waitress help me get up, as she called for someone to look at my arm. The room was spinning already, I can hardly hear them talking. I don't know what's going to happen because my eyes were dropping. The last thing I heard was them shouting that I need to get stitches immediately, and it all went black.

Nagising ako dahil sa ingay ng mga tao sa paligid ko. I slowly opened my eyes, and squinted it a few times as I adjust it into the bright lights. I noticed two figure standing behind the curtain and when it finally opened, I'm surprised to find Lewis and Wesley, with the latter on her pajamas pa. When they noticed that I'm awake, mabilis silang pumunta sa tabi ko and immediately bombarded me with questions.

"What the fuck happened?" I heard my friend ask.

"Ayos ka lang ba?" asked Wesley.

"Bakit ka naglasing?" "What happened to you?" "Bakit ang daming sugat ng kamay mo?" "Gosh, look at you. "

"Can you get me water, please?" I answered, my voice croaking. Stupid alcohol aftermath.

"I'll buy you muna," sagot ni Lewis at dali-dali itong umalis. Naiwan kaming dalawa ni Wesley na nakatingin sa isa't-isa.

"So..."

I raised my brow at her. "Hmm?"

"Lasing ka?"

I shrugged. "A bit? I think I've sobered up na. What time is it?"

"Uhh, five na."

I saw her face and it came back to me. I was drinking my ass off because I was so jealous of her and that woman. I can't help but feel irritated, "Five what? Answer it completely nga, there's morning and afternoon don't make me guess it."

"AM. Ang sungit mo naman? Ganyan ba talaga after mag swimming sa bubog?"

I immediately realized my words kaya napa iling ako. "I'm sorry. Just..." I'm still jealous, Wesley.
