A Wife's Suffer

Chapter 20: Drunk

Kate's POV

           As I entered 'Haven,' the mixed scent of different drinks welcomed me matched with the loud sound and the crowd which seem to have gone wild.

Smoking is not allowed here and that's a good thing. Luxury bar kasi ito eh kaya ang may VIP card lang ang pwedeng makapasok.

I looked around the whole place. For party and wild people talaga ang ambiance ng lugar. Some are hugging and kissing. Some are even making out. Yeah. They make out in a public place like this.

                         Napatingin naman ako sa suot kong fitted black dress na long sleeves and about three inches above the knee. I paired it with silver stilettos and silver pouch.

Kakagaling ko pa lang kasi sa isang meeting and when I checked the time, it was almost ten in the evening. Sakto naman na napadaan ako dito sa Haven and realized na binigyan pala ako ni France ng card dito kaya pumasok nalang din ako.

I headed to the bar counter to order some drinks. Actually, it's my first time going to a bar. I'm not a party person kasi and siguro if mayroon akong maituturing na nightlife, siguro, it's when nag oovertime ako sa office.

                     "Good evening, Ms. Beautiful. What drink would you like me to prepare for you?" sabi sa akin ng bartender.

Itinuro ko nalang 'yung parang isang bottle na nakita ko. Hindi ko kasi mabasa kung ano 'yun eh and wala naman akong alam sa ganyan. Basta kung ano ang nakita ko, 'yun nalang ang itinuro ko.

                        Nilingon niya naman ako na parang gulat at hindi makapaniwala.

"Really, Miss? You want that one?" gulat na sabi niya.

Tumango lang ako.

                 "Okay. I'll serve your drinks in a while." He said at tumalikod na para iprepare ang drinks na inorder ko.

While waiting, inilibot ko ulit ang aking paningin. I just smiled bitterly.

Bakit ganun? Why are they here to party? Why are they here to enjoy? Samantalang ako, I'm here to get wasted.

                  Yes. Wala naman sigurong masama kung magpakalasing ako, diba? total nasa legal age na ako.

And wala namang mag – aalala eh.

                  "Here's your drink, Miss." Sabay lapag niya ng isang glass sa harap ko.

Nginitian ko lang siya at agad na ininom ang nasa harap ko. Gumuhit naman sa lalamunan ko ang lasa nito. Grabe, pakiramdam ko nahihilo na ako. To think na halos kalahati palang ang nainom ko.
