Kase

    
"Napaka tulog mantika mo naman! Bro get up!" Malakas na sabi nito sa kanya habang pinipilit siya nitong ibangon sa pag kakahiga.

"I'm tired bro."

"Buong araw kana nakahiga! Birthday ko naman Kase, you said you'll come."

I get up groaning. "Ang aga aga pa Victor. Gabi pa mag sisimula yung party mo! Can I just sleep in peace?"

"Alam mo kakabalik mo lang nag iinarte kana."

Hindi niya pinansin ang sinabi nito. Victor is his old friend. He's used to him being this annoying at ten in the morning.

"Hindi yun ganun. It was hell there and you know that."

"Alam ko hindi ako tanga."

He points out. I want to roll my eyes at him. He never change.

"What matters now is my party. Kailangan mong pumunta. This is the perfect time! You just came back and you need to unwind after dealing with God knows what."

Pinag timpla niya ang sarili ng kape para pansamantalang gisingin ang kanyang diwa. Pagod pa ang kanyang katawan dahil kakabalik niya lang, dalawang araw palang nakakalipas. After three fucking long years. A lot happened. I let out a sigh after remembering it again. I was safe, just some broken bones but I'm fine, unlike my sister. She was so fearless like she's ready to die on that same day. She ended up at the hospital with a gun shut! But not fatal She's okay now. I hope.. and we still don't know How she's pregnant without us knowing. Like how?? I know! When and where? Parang sasakit ang ulo niya sa kakaisip. Everyone is fine including mom. Dad's with her. Not everyone knows and we have to keep it in private. After what happen I dout Dad will let him go back to working again.

"How are you and girlfriends?" I look at him.

"How are you and girl thing," I point out to my reply. We kind of.. on the same boat.

"Well.. I asked first,"

I don't want to think of it. She's the first thing I want to see when I came back actually. But she doesn't live there anymore. I don't know what to say if I ever see her again...

Hello after three years?

"Wala na akong balita sa kanya after I left. She doesn't live on her apartment anymore."

"Marami pa namang babae jan. You can have all the fish in the sea if you want Kase."

"I'm not that same guy Victor."

Cassandra is different. She made me change my self.. for her.

"Okay. Anyway, You need to come and Mag dala ka ng regalo."

He left after saying that. Talagang nang istorbo lang ang isang yon. I shake my head, It's glad to be back.

...

I sip on my black cold espresso while waiting outside my condominium apartment. It was my second coffee for that day. My body is just tired to be functioning, I need something strong to keep me awake.

I was looking at my watch when a black and white range rover stop at my front.

"Since when did I became your uber Charle Kase?!"

"You have just arrive in time,"

She rolled her eyes, "Get inside bago pako mainis sa mukha mo."

"It was good to see you too Lai," Sabi niya pag ka upo sa loob ng kotche nito.
