Nixon's POV
----------------
Mawi, the Lead Guitarist in our band. Also the one who we usually run to when we need help in our lovelifes. Toby, Bassist/Guitarist in our band. He always thinks all of this is a competition, but sometimes it's a good thing because he does great performance in our band. Also he's helpful in our personal problems. Kyle, the one who sings in our band, also the "Puno't dulo" and the "Pasimuno" in everything. He always starts "band fights", and even "fist fights". That's also one reason why we are known in our school. I can't even figure out how his name is clean on my mom's sight. Next, Kurt, Rythm on our band, also the Joker in our band. That even though his jokes are not funny, his way of delivering it is the funniest. And lastly, me, the Drummer/Violinist in our band.

After the day we drinked
-----------------------------
8:47 A.M.
(Alarm ringing)
"TOBY YUNG ALARM!!!", Mawi said loudly while covering his face with a pillow.
Toby then turned of the alarm and said, "Abno kasi 'tong alarm ko, kahit saturday nag-aalarm."
Kyle, somehow grogy because of what happened last night asked, "Anong oras na?"
"8:47 palang, kaya manahimik ka na", Toby answered angrily.
"Ahh.", said Kyle while checking his phone.
SH*T!!!!!! NIXON GUMISING KA NA!!! SABI NG MAMA MO 9 A.M. NASA BAHAY KANA!!!, Kyle said quickly to me while shaking my shoulders.
"Huh? Patay...", I said while laying my back on the sofa.
~~~~~~~~~~
(9:18 A.M.)
"Maaa? Sorry.", I said as the door creeks open.
Then I saw my mother sitting with her morning coffee and said, "It's okay anak, inexpect ko naman na di ka makakarating on time. Tsaka 10 pa naman kita kailangan dito."
"Ma, tsaka nagsosorry din po ako kasi uminom po ako kahapon. Di ko na po alam kung anong gagawin. Ang sakit po kasi eh...", I responded and cried in front of her.
"Anak, kaya mo yan, okay? Makakamove on ka rin.", as she told me with her caring voice and wipes my eyes.
She then told me to sit down while she gets something. So as I sit down and waited for her, I WAS SURPRISED. She was walking towards me, carrying 2 shot glasses and a bottle of scotch. Who the heck is expecting that your mother will make you drink? So as she layed down those things, she then said, "Sige anak, start the story!"
~~~~~~~~~
After I told her all, she then asked me, "Anak, minahal mo ba talaga siya?".
"Di naman po ako magiging ganito kung hindi ko po siya minahal diba?", I reply.
"Sabagay... Sige na anak, pahinga ka na muna sa taas at may pupuntahan pa akong meeting. Kaya mo yan anak", she said as she stands up with the bottle of scotch.
"Okay po Ma. Thank you po ulit."

(Sunday, 7:34 P.M.)
As I was ironing my uniforms for the week when someone knocked at our door. It was Cresley... The best friend of Amber. Ugh I don't want to say that name. Anyways, as my sister let her in and as I turned off the iron, she then asked, "Oks ka lang? Tara, lakad tayo sa labas while we talk about it."
While we were walking outside, she told me, "Sa lahat ng times na nag-away kayo ni Amber, eto palang yung unang beses na kinampihan kita. Kaya wag ka nang malungkot. By the way, pogi rin yung bago niya." I then answered with a teary eye, "Ahh, talaga? Medjo nasaktan ako doon sa sinabi mo pero thank you, dahil ako yung rinamayan mo." She then replied, "Hay nako Abrenica, di ko rin alam kung bakit ka sinaktan at pinakawalan nung babaeng yun. Gwapo gwapo mo kaya." I then answered while giggling, "Ay crush mo nga pala ako." She replied, "Oo nga, di hamak naman na mas maganda ako sakanya tas siya pa yung pinili mo. Joke." Then we laughed.
After a while, she told me, "Nixon, seryoso na. Alam mo naman na nandito kami ng mga kaibigan mo para tulungan ka makapag-move on sa babaeng yun. Makakahanap ka rin ng iba, katulad ko. Chos! Taken na ako. Sareh." I then answered with a frown, "Hay... Siguro di na ako makakakita ng babaeng katulad niya. Natatakot nga akong pumasok tomorrow, di ko alam kung anong mangyayari..." She then said, "Wag kang mag-alala, just expect na paguusapan kayong dalawa sa school. And advice for you? Wag mo sakanya ipapakita na mahina ka nung simula ka nyang iniwan." I replied, "Sige, thank you. Its getting late na, baka ako pa yung mapagalitan ng poreber mo." She replied, "Sige na, you go home na and finish your uniforms. And lastly, never think na nagkulang ka sa relationship niyo, kasi nakita namin lahat na minahal mo siya ng sobra pa sa sobra. Okay? Byerz" I replied, "Okay, thanks ulit."
