Colet's Pov
"Great work everyone, anyone up for xylo night? My treat." Chief Lauren said.
"Talaga chief treat mo?" Jho asked.
"Oo naman." Chief Lauren said.
It's friday night. Sometimes chief lauren or maloi treats us dinner or drink night. Sometimes every friday night ay parang tradition ng team with chief lauren, relaxing bonding na din.
"Hindi po ako sasama. I'll go home chief." I said.
"Himala nagbaback out si colet ng beer night." Justin said.
"I just want to rest early tonight. Treat ko nalang next time." I said.
They went to the bar xylo while i went home to my condo. I ordered food first then changed my clothes. My phone vibrated, nag-message si jho. Tinatanong niya kung okay lang ba ako.
Chat Conversation:
Me: Jho i'm okay.
Jho: You want some snacks? I can drop by after we're finish here.
Me: Nag-order na ako ng food. Just have fun with the others. Paki-bantayan na din si maloi.
Jho: Concern kay maloi pero wala ka naman dito.
Me: Treat kita breakfast bukas.
Jho: Yes boss babantayan ko siya.
Me: Bilis mag-yes pagdating sa libre talaga.
Jho: Syempre, libre mo eh.
I placed my phone on the table then i took out five cans of beer from the refrigerator. I just made the excuse that i'm tired but here i am going to drink by myself. After a few minutes, the food arrived. Trip ko uminom sa balcony habang tinitignan mga stars.
"Maloi is like a star, i can see her but i can't reach her." I said.
I already drank three beers when the doorbell rang. Binuksan ko yung pinto. Revealing the person i didn't expect to see. It's maloi, wait it's impossible especially i might already be drunk from the three beers.
"Ouch." I said.
She pinched my shoulder. Akala ko sumama siya kila jho. Tinignan ko phone ko, nag-chat si jho na umalis si maloi. Seryoso nasa harapan ko talaga siya.
"Umiinom ka, i thought you were resting." Maloi said.
She's outside the door but she still saw the can of beers on the table at the balcony. Lakas talaga ng mata niya.
"I was about to rest." I said.
She went inside my condo. She's been here before during college when i got sick and mikha asked her to take care of me. Nagulat din ako noon na naging mag-stepsisters na sila. Muntik na ako mag-selos na baka type ni maloi si mikha noon. We're now at the balcony and she's looking at me with a stern look. Can a black hole just pull me right now?
"Lately ang tahimik mo." Maloi said.
"Nagfofocus lang talaga ako sa work." I said.
"Liar, tatlong can ng beer na nainom mo nicolette. Kilalang-kilala kita." Maloi said.
Lagot nicolette na tawag sakin. Nung college ang magkakasama ay ako, jho, maloi at kaori.
FLASHBACK
"When will you confess to her?" Jho asked.
"Jho get back to your table." I said.
Currently, nasa laboratory room kami. We're doing a paraffin test. Naka-ready na ang pot na may natunaw na wax.
"Have you heard the news? May nagbigay ng rose bouquet kay maloi." Kaori said.
Sabay nila ako tinignan, they know i like maloi since high school.
"Hindi ako." I said.
"Then baka siya." Kaori said.
"Sino?" Jho asked.
