Being hurt and broken is already given when you're in love. When you love someone, you can't dodge the storm that brings pain no matter how you try.

I didn't expect Jayde to be my storm. She gave me sunshine in span of two years, and she left me in the state of calamity when she decided to broke our relationship.

Jayde was the storm I didn't expect to come and destroy me. She hit me, and now I can't seem to recover how her storm damage me.

"Mag bar kaya tayo?" Biglang yaya ni Lily.

It's been two weeks since Jayde and I broke up. And during that two weeks, I'm lost. Mabuti na lang at puno ang schedule ko sa loob ng dalawang linggo kaya nagkaroon ako ng pagkakataong pagurin ang sarili.

During the day, I used my body to work until it became exhausted. I want to hit my bed immediately when I go home, because I refuse to think of Jayde before I sleep. Mas lalo lang akong madudurog.

Hindi naging madali sa akin ang nangyari, minsan kapag may nakikita akong nakakapagpapaalala sa kanya sa akin, agad akong naiiyak.

I didn't even want to walk or past any streets that reminds me of her. I didn't even want to visit the place where our memories exist. Ang hirap lang kasi halos 'ata ng daan at lugar, kahit maliit na bagay, siya ang naaalala ko.

"Bar?" Wala sa huwisyo kong tanong kay Lily.

Kumunot ang noo niya, and then she sigh.

"Yes, Reeve, bar. Since we don't have work tomorrow, let's be drunk tonight."

Pumayag ako sa alok ni Lily. Nang sumapit nga ang gabi ay pumunta kami sa isang sikat na bar. May security kaming kasama pero 'di sila nakikita.

Maybe it's good to drink.

Marami ang bumati sa amin pagkapasok. Tahanan pala ito ng mga artista dahil ang dami kong nakikitang pamilyar na mukha.

Si Lily na ang nag order para sa aming dalawa. Hinayaan ko na siyang mamili kung anong iinumin namin. She seems to know what are the good drinks here.

I sat on the couch and vibe on the music that was playing.

"It's rare to see you here," si Marky na biglang sumulpot sa harapan ko.

Ngumiti ako sa kanya.

"Hi, Marky," I greeted. "What's bring you here? Hindi na ba kayo busy?"

Umupo siya sa tabi ko habang hawak ang shot glass na may whiskey.

"My classmates and friends decided to hangout to celebrate because we survived the exam."

Does he mean, Jayde is here too?

Does it mean that Jayde also passed the exam? If that's the case, then I'm glad.

Hindi ako umimik dahil takot ako na magtanong.

"I heard about what happened," he said in a low voice.

Agad akong napabaling sa kanya.

I chuckled. "Don't look at me like that. I don't need your pity."

Marahan siyang tumawa.

"I almost punch her. Kung hindi lang siya babae," saad niya. "But, I know she has her reasons. You know her, right? Do you think she's capable of doing such things to you without any reasons?"

Agad siyang tumayo pagkatapos niyang sinabi 'yon. Hindi na ako hinintay na makapagsalita.

Dumating na rin si Lily dala dala ang inumin namin. Agad kong nilagok ang baso ng whisky.
