Aubrey's POV

✧ • — • ✧

Saturday // 11:49

The girl that kissed me blacked out all of the sudden so I led her to the back of the bar to lay her down in one of the rooms. As I carried her in a bridal position towards the bed. I couldn't help but notice how beautiful she looked asleep in my arms like a baby. My baby.

Mabigat nga lang, baby damulag ba naman.

I grunted as I laid her unconscious body down the bed before laying next to her, positioning her head to rest on my chest. The distinct noise coming from the bar could be heard in faint sounds as I combed her hair with my fingers.

This moment felt pure. Unlike ate Maeve, I actually wasn't the type to go to bars to find someone to hook up with. Would it be crazy if I told you that I never even had my first kiss? I simply go with ate Maeve at bars to assist her and party while I waited, but that was until I stumbled upon this girl of course. She took my first kiss.

Oo, 23 na ako pero wala pa akong first kiss. EVER!

Despite being lowkey bitter over the fact that the same girl that called me hello kitty stole my first kiss, I didn't have any regrets about tonight. I know I'm not an expert, but are kisses supposed to feel that...electrifying?

I closed my eyes as thoughts raced in my mind at the thought of the kiss we shared. I could feel my cheeks heating up as my heart starts to beat faster.

Sino ka ba talaga?

I wondered, caressing her cheeks when I suddenly received a notification from ate Maeve.

12:09 na pala? Tapos na siguro si ate kailangan ko na umalis.

I raised her head carefully to rest it against a pillow, trying not to wake her up kasi aalis na ako, but before I left, I gave her one last goodbye kiss.

It's been 3 days since we last met, and when ate Maeve invited me to go to the bar, I was ecstatic because I looked forward to seeing her again. Natatandaan ko pa yung sabi niyang hindi siya mahilig mag punta sa bar at nagkataon lang yun dahil iniwan siya. But I was hoping deep down that maybe, just maybe, makikita ko siya ulit.

I can treat her better than her ex that left her naman eh.

Maeve's POV

Tuesday // 11:23

Despite my schedule being free, me and Aubrey decided to go back to the bar with the main objective of finding the respective girls we wanted to find. But after almost 20 minutes of searching, I couldn't find Heather, kaya I decided to ask one of the employees if nandito siya.

"Hey." I called over one of the ladies who looked like they were just about to start their shifts.
"Yes ma'am?" She answered.
"Nandito ba si Heather?" I asked.
"Ah, wala po. During weekends lang po siya pumapasok." She replied. I nodded to acknowledge her answer before she excused herself to leave because she still had work to do.

Kaya pala hindi ko pa siya nakita dati. Hindi pala magkatugma yung schedules namin. Could it be fate that led me to you that Saturday night?

I bit my lip as I approached Aubrey who was ordering drinks. She look just as defeated as me.
"Whiskey pa rin ba?" She asked me with a faint smirk.
"Yeah." I chuckled.
"Good, kasi I already ordered it for you." She said before taking a sip of the glass of liquor she had in hand.
"So, did you find her?" I asked. Aubrey only shrugged.
"Not here din?" I sighed. "I couldn't find her either, weekends lang pala kasi shift non."

A part of me was disappointed na wala siya don. And as much as I wanted to stay at the bar, I found it pointless. Kung wala lang naman pala si Heather doon, at wala din akong ka transaction, what's the point of staying?

After downing a few glasses of liquor, we decided to make our way out nalang.

Maybe next time, our encounter would be as ecstatic as the night we felt eachother's touch, Heather.

I couldn't deny the fact that a part of me was disappointed. Aubrey was already in our limousine, nauna na siya dahil nahihilo na siya sa mga ininom niya. Napadami din ata kasi she's disappointed that she didn't see her love at first sight. But while I was making my way through the crowd, about to make my exit, someone intentionally bumped into me. I was mad at this gesture, of course.
"Tangina wala ka bang mata?" Napamura ako. But upon seeing who it was, my mood only worsened.

Yawa, bakit siya nandito?

I thought, cursing mentally.

"Oh ba't ganyan itsura mo? Did I starstruck you?" She said with a smirk.

"It's been a long time, Cadence." I glared at her.

She was no other than Cadence Mave Vergara. Ang tagapagmana ng Vergara Clan. Aka, my nemesis. Kung tutuusin, we were almost the same. The only difference is the fact that I'm better. And I always will be.

"Looking for a new toy?" She pouted as if to tease me.

Naknampucha kung kami lang siguro dalawa dito sa bar kanina ko pa 'to pinatay.

"Fuck off, Cadence." I furrowed my brows as I continued to glare with her.
"Aww, did I make Miss Maevey Arceta mad?" She frowned teasingly. I clenched my fist to resist the urge to start beating her up.

I felt relief when one of her bodyguards tapped her on the shoulder to signal that she still had business to tend.

"Looks like I gotta go. See you around, Maevey." Cadence said with a cocky smirked that left me fuming. With a scoff, I stormed out of that bar.

Lakas naman ng loob niya magpakita sa akin. Dadating din naman panahon niyo. Mapapatumba ko din ang Vergara Clan. At sa panahong yon, sisiguraduhin ko na luluhod ka sa harap ko, Cadence. And you will fucking beg for my mercy.
