Chapter 1
"It's over."
"No please.. I can't. Inigo don't do this to me." Bakit ba ang clingy ng mga babae? Psh. Hindi ba sila makaintindi ng IT'S OVER? Kailangan ba paulit ulit kong sabihin yan para maintindihan? Ano bobo lang? Hindi makaintindi?
"Please Inigo.." Lumapit ako dun sa babae na nakaluhod ngayon at nagmamakaawang wag ko siyang iwan.
"Woman, don't you understand the meaning of it's over? Kung hindi, tatagalugin ko para sa'yo. TAPOS. NA. TAYO. Understand? So get the hell out of here!" I shouted right at her face. Mukhang natakot naman siya at nagmadaling tumayo at tumakbo palabas ng bar.
"How pathetic." bulong ko.
"What's new? Lagi mo na lang ginagawa yan. Like every week?" sabi ng katabi ko.
"Wala e, iba talaga kapag gwapo na mayaman pa. Habulin talaga ng babae." I smirked and drink my beer.
"Ouch. Ang hangin dito pre!" sigaw ni Silver, siya yung katabi ko kanina. Well, that's my brother.
"Truth hurts." I shrugged. I'm Inigo Klein. I'm the youngest son of a well known business man here in New York, Arthur Klein. I'm just 21.
"Hey handsomes." napatingin kami sa mga babaeng papalapit sa amin.
I grinned. "Hi girls, wanna join us?" Silver asked. And they all sit beside us.
"So what brought you girls here?" Silver asked.
"Well, we just thought that you guys are lonely, so we're here to accompany you." Sabi nung babaeng katabi ni Drae. I looked at her from head to toe, she's hot but she's not my type.
"Well, that's right girls. Actually, our brother here just broke up with his girl so he's a little bit lonely." Silver said sabay tingin sa'kin ng nakakaloko.
"Awww that's sad. Don't worry we'll make you happy!" The other girl winked at me. Actually yung babae kanina is not really my girlfriend. I never had a girlfriend. Yung babae kanina ewan ko ba kung saang planeta niya nakuha yung information na girlfriend ko siya. Psh. I just do flings. I don't like being commited. Feeling ko nakakasakal. Those girls that I dated are just my flavor of the week. Yep, week. Hanggang isang linggo lang. At pag nagsawa na ako? Wala lang sasabihin ko lang na ayoko na. Like what I did to that clingy girl.
"Mukhang meron ka na namang flavor of the week bro a. Nice!" sigaw ni Silver sabay thumbs up.
"They're not my type." I said. Mukha namang nagulat si Silver sa sinagot ko.
"The fvck? Wala kang type ni isa sa kanila? But look at them bro! They're smoking hot! What's the problem? Wag mong sabihing in love ka kaya wala kang mapili at kaya mo dinump yung babae kanina?"
"No of course not. You know me Silver, I don't do love."
"Then why?"
"I'm just bored. Wala pa akong makitang interesting na babae."
"Sabagay, sawa ka na siguro sa mga hot kaya hinahanap mo siguro yung mga mukhang manang na ano? Hahaha!" tawa ng tawa si Silver. Psh para talagang bata.
"Aray! Makasapok naman wagas?" napatingin naman ako kay Drae na abala sa pagtingin sa phone niya. Psh sa business na naman yan.
"Ang ingay mo. Manahimik ka." Drae said without looking at Silver. Nakatuon pa rin sa phone niya.
"Ano ba 'yan Drae nasa bar tayo, hello? Tama na yang work. Relax relax din pag may time!" I said. Oh yeah, that's my eldest brother. Drae Klein. He's a workaholic. We have our own company pero mas ginusto niyang magtrabaho sa iba. Weird.
"Bakit ba? Wag na kayong makielam — hey stop that!" napatingin naman ako dun sa babaeng katabi niya, kinukulit niya kasi si Drae.
"Oh c'mon! Hayaan mo na siyang i- entertain ka Drae." Singit na naman ni Silver na busy sa pakikipaglandian sa katabi niyang babae.
"Okay I'm up!" tumayo na ako.
"Hey babe where are you going? I thought we're gonna have fun?" sabi nung babaeng katabi ko na mukhang payaso sa sobrang kapal ng make up. Atsaka maka- babe naman parang kami ah? Mga babae nga naman.
"Well, I got some important things to do. Maybe next time." I winked at her.
After that lumabas na ako ng bar at pumunta sa may parking lot. Sumandal ako sa may kotse ko and started to light up my cigarette. I look at the skies. Mukhang uulan pa ata a. And I was right, the rain started to fall.
Pumasok na ako ng kotse and when I'm about to leave I saw a girl she's dripping wet. She was shivering, mukhang naghihintay siya ng masasakyan. But I remember it's 3 am, impossibleng makakita siya ng masasakyan ng gantong oras.
But what the fvck I care? Buhay niya yan e. It's not mine. So why should I care? So I started driving, medyo nakakalayo na ako mula sa pinanggalingan ko. Pero bakit ganto nakokonsensya ba ako? Balikan ko kaya siya? Mas lalong lumakas ang ulan. For Pete's sake! Ugh.
I decided na bumalik na lang dahil alam kong hindi ako patutulugin ng konsensya ko. I was driving slowly, bumalik ako sa spot kung saan ko siya nakita but she's not there anymore. Maybe nakasakay na siya? Pero may nagtutulak sa'kin na ituloy pa yung paghahanap sa kanya. And suddenly I saw her. Nakahiga na siya sa kalsada. Nagmadali naman akong lumabas ng kotse ko at pinuntahan siya.
"Miss?" she's not responding.
I tried to shake her. "Miss?" Pero wala pa rin akong nakuhang response. So I deciced to carry her inside my car. Mabilis na pinaharurot ko ito papunta sa malapit na ospital. And after some minutes nakarating na rin kami. I carried her again at may mga sumalubong naman sa amin na mga nurses.
They were asking me questions but I can't seem to understand them. My attention was focused to that girl. Later on, tuluyan na siyang ipinasok sa ER.
