*********************

The dimly lit bar buzzed with the murmur of conversations and the clinking of glasses. I sat alone at a corner table, drinking a whiskey, lost in my thoughts as the amber liquid reflected the soft glow of the overhead lights. It had been a long week, and I needed this moment of solitude to unwind.

As I gazed into the swirling depths of my drink, I sensed a presence beside me. Then I saw a man standing there, watching me.

"Mind if I join you?" he asked, his voice are seductive and it made me feel good.

A rush of relief washed over me at the sight of him. "Please," I replied, gesturing to the empty chair across from me. "I could use the company."

"May problema ba?" he asked pero umiling lang ako.

"Some sort of family problem" I said "You know someone in our house is a cheater and a liar. " halos umiyak na ako sa harapan nya.

The bartender approached, and the man ordered a beer before turning back to me. "Anything in particular on your mind?" he asked "You know just to make your problem fade" he added

I just laughed "Hindi naman nawawala ang problema" I said

"But you can forget it for a while" he said smiling "Sometimes, you just need a moment to unwind."

At one point, Oliver leaned closer, his voice dropping to a whisper, i already felt his breath . "You know," he began, his eyes sparkling with a playful glint, "I know something na makakapag pawala ng problema mo" he said while drinking his beer.

"And what is it?" i asked trying to act normal as his lips are now close to my ears.

"Let's make a deal" he stated "I'll make you the happiest person ever this night, and for return you'll be my slave" he said, his voice are now husky.

Parang may kung ano sa boses nya na hinahatak ako palapit sa kanya, bumaba ang mga tingin ko sa labi nya na pulang pula, when he noticed na nakatingin ako roon ay pinasadahan nya ito ng kanyang dila.

Napalunok ako saka umiwas ng tingin, "What do you mean?" i asked

"Let's be a fuck buddy" he said, halos maluwa ko ang iniinom ko.

I composed myself and try not to act so bad, i was shocked pero nang tumawa sya ay nawala ang gulat ko. "Why? Don't tell me takot ka?" mayabang na sabi nya.

I can sense his eagerness sa way pa lang nya ng pagsasalita, nang medyo lumiwanag sa pwesto namin ay doon ko mas naaninag ang mukha nya. He had a very warming smile that could brighten the darkest of days but also a dangerous one, his eyes a shade of hazel that seemed to sparkle with warmth and mischief. His hair, tousled just so, gave him an air of casual sophistication that complemented his easygoing demeanor.

I couldn't help but notice the way his shirt hugged his shoulders, emphasizing the lean strength of his frame. He had a presence about him-a magnetic allure that seemed to captivate everyone around him, myself included.

"See! Attacked ka na nga agad" natatawang sabi nya. "So ano? Be my fuck buddy" he said again.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit nya ako tinatanong ng ganon, pero may kakaiba sa kanya na nagugustuhan ko-hindi ko alam ang nangyari at bakit napapayag nya ako sa gusto nya. Well! It's just a fubu right? Wala naman mawawala sa akin.
