The Unchosen Wife (Book II) Mature Content/Rated 18

Wasted

"Cheer up, Addi. Your whole class is so proud they got you as the top student yet your here frowning" wika ni Warren na katabi nitong nakasandal sa railings ng corridor sa labas ng classroom nila.

"I just...don't feel like celebrating today" mapakla itong ngumiti at umiwas din agad ng tingin.

"Ilang araw ka ng ganyan. Malamya kang kausap, lageng tulala, walang imik at malalim ang iniisip. You are investing too much pain to them."

What he is saying is true. Luging lugi siya sa investment na iyon pero patuloy pa rin siya. Is she being denial? How can it be called as denial when Levi is still shipping on her. He can still feel his love pero, nararamdaman lang niya yun kapag naaalala siya nito.

"Sana matauhan na ako noh? Kailan ko kaya siya pakakawalan?" she said with a straight face.

"I told you to use me. I can help you more than you think."

"Kahit na wala ka namang mapapala sa akin?"

May parang kumurot sa puso ni Warren. He been through lots of heartbreaks but Addi hits different.

"Yeah. I am not expecting a bounce back. I just want to help you, pain free."

"Yeah. I want to be pain free, kahit isang araw lang"

"Saan tayo?"
"Walking distance lang dito"
"Sure ka pwedeng mag inuman doon?"
"Pwede daw basta minimun of 5 people kayong pupunta."

Tila isang magandang ideya ang katagang inuman sa mga tenga ni Addi. Ngumisi siya at nilingon ang mga kaklaseng nag-uusap sa loob.

"Hey! Guys! Sasama ako!"

Halos mapuno ang isang samyupsalan sa sami nilang andoon kaya napilitang mag early close ang manager dahil hindi na nila kaya pang mag-asikaso ng ibang customers.

The sizzling sound of the meats their cooking and rest of the unaudible coversations of her classmates from the other tables filled her ears. She has to focus on them. Siya ang nagboluntaryong sumama at ginusto niya ito. Kailangan niyo munang kalimutan sina Levi at Cali, kahit ngayon lang. She wants to enjoy and get drunked, like what happened on Tami's birthday.

"Dai, hindi ako makapaniwalang sasama ka, tingnan mo halos buong klase natin ang andito" Tami giggled. Sumama na rin si Warren sa kanila and just like Tami, he is excited but in a different way. He is excited to start ruining their marriage, and he will start it now.

"Oo nga, ang saya. Ang ingay" she answered with a smile. The more noise, the better. She wants distraction.

Sinimulan ng ihatid ng mga crew ang order nilang ilang bote ng Soju.

"What does it taste?" she curiously asked habang binabasa ang label ng bote.

"Umiinom ka ba, Addi?" tanong ng kaklase niyang Aliyah ba nasa harap lang niya. Debale sa isang mahabang mesa kung saan sila nakaupo, walaong tao silang andoon. Ganun din sa lima pang mesa na mga kaklase din niya ang pumuno'ng nagsiupo.

"My second time, today kaya hindi ko pa natitikman ito"

"That tastes nasty with just that alone, we can request to have it mixed some extras for that to taste good." Yelly suggested with a seductive smile. Kanina niya pa ito napapansing pasulyap sulyap sa kanya, baka nga ay totoo ang sinasabi ng kaklase nitong si Shunn na katabi lang din niya.

"I love that." the moment she smiled at him ay sabay ding pag-akbay sa kanya ni Warren, pertaining to the guys infront that he is with her. "What do you think, Warren?"

"If that's what makes you stay her until dawn then let's do that"

"Til dawn? They are open until 10" Tami corrected him.
