Lawrence's POV

It's raining. I was driving through a street with no lamppost nor any waiting shed when I saw silhouette of a girl walking slowly and her head down. I quickly rolled down my window to check if she was okay.

"Miss! Are you okay? Do you wanna get a ride home?" I yelled at her while I was driving my car at a very low speed.

"Ayos lang. Wala na 'rin namang kwenta 'tong buhay ko eh." She replied with a depressed tone.

I shrugged and was about to get out of the place but suddenly, the girl collapsed. I quickly got out of the car to help her.

"Miss? Miss wake up!" I said. But she remained unconscious. I was about to carry her to my car when I suddenly heard her whisper.

"Wag mo 'kong iwan please maawa ka." She said while holding my wrist tightly.

I suddenly felt that she's really scared, and that there's something inside me that doesn't want to leave her here.

"Oo di kita iiwan." I said then carried her to my car.

I drove to my place and quickly called my friend.

"Hello, Rose? Can you please come over? I need you here."

"Sure, baby. I'll be there in no time."

"And can you also please bring some clothes?"

"Uhh. Okay?"

"Thank you." I quickly said and was about to hang up when she asked a question.

"Teka, aanhin mo naman damit ko? Susuotin mo?"

"Hindi isasakal ko sayo. Can you just hurry up?" I said then hung up. I bet she rolled her eyes when I said that.

I was walking back and forth when I heard someone knocking on my door.

"So? Why did you want me to come here? Do you wanna have some fun?" She said in a flirtatious tone. I knew that she had feelings for me but I already made it clear that friendship is the only thing that I can give her.

"Yeah right, Rose. I want you to change that girl's clothes."

"Eew! Sino yan? Mukhang basang sisiw!"

"Just make sure na pagbalik ko maayos na siya." Bilin ko sakanya at pumunta na sa pinto. I don't really like explaining things.

I left them and went to a convenience store nearby to buy some food.

*****

Papasok na ako ng condo ko nang may marinig akong nagsisigawan.

"Ano ba! Wag ka nga muna kasing umalis! Pasalamat ka nga tinulungan ka pa!" I heard a familiar voice shouting. It must be Rose.

"Eh bakit ba?! Wala naman akong sinabi na dalhin niyo 'ko dito eh!"

I quickly opened the door to see that my suspicions were correct.

"Ano ba! Magsitigil nga kayo! Miss pwede bang maupo ka muna at kakausapin ka namin?" I said with full authority.

"Ano ba! Magsitigil nga kayo! Miss pwede bang maupo ka muna at kakausapin ka namin?"

Someone said near the door. I quickly got up to see who that is and was shocked to see the guy who stopped the car for me in the middle of the road. It was blurry, but I remember pieces of the scene.

"Anong ginagawa mo dito? Paano ako napunta dito?" I asked him.

"You collapsed. I helped you and brought you here at my place." He said in a calm manner.
