Debby's POV
I took a glance at my wall clock, it's 01:54 am.
Napagpasyahan kong hindi na pumunta sa party. Ang gusto ko lang ngayon ay makalanghap ng sariwang hangin..
Lumabas ako sa bahay gamit ang bintana.
Now, wala akong kotse. Oh well, manghi-hiram na nga lang ako.
Nilibot ko ang aking mga mata kung sino man hihiraman ko ng kotse.
Luckily, may nahanap ako.
Wow ha, it 2:00 in the morning yet nasa harap siya ng bahay niya bukas ang ilaw at nagba-basa ng libro.
Nilapitan ko and asked.. "Hey neighbor." I smiled while my hands are in my pocket.
"H-hey,"
"This is a little bit embarrasing, but can I borrow your car?"
"Y-yeah. But, I can't let you use my car. I'll come with you." Yes. It's okay if he'll come. It's fun 'pag may kasama.
"W-where do you wanna go?" Tanong niya. Ayoko na sa party, maybe a place that is peaceful.
"May alam ka bang lugar kung saan tahimik at mahangin? I want to go there." I smiled at him. He blushed. Cutie!
At pumunta na kami sa garage at woah, his car is on fire! A freaking Audi! Life wtf, that's my dream car.
"Nice ride," Me, tryna act cool, but deep inside I wanna scream like 'whaaaaat the heck! Ang gaaaaanda ng kotse mo!'
"T-thanks.." At napakamot siya sa batok.
Pumasok na kami sa Audi.
He started to drive.

Nilanghap ko ang sariwang hangin habang nakapikit, iniisip na sana, maging peacful at masaya ang buhay ko.
Nasa isa kaming burol kung saan kitang-kita ang mga city night lights.. Kita ko yung subdivision namin, bahay ng ex-bestfriend ko, bahay ng ex-boyfriend ko, bahay na ex-kabarkadas ko. Puro ex ano?
Ang tanga ko kasi, how can I fall for their stupid tricks? Bakit ba kasi masyado ko sila pinagkatiwalaan, I'm became too attached that I didn't know they were stabbing me at my back.
Fuck! Screw them all.
"H-hey, you look sad."
"Wala, wala 'to.. Hey, may mga naka-gawa na ba sa'yo ng kasalanan to the point na gusto mo sila bigyan ng revenge?" Natigilan siya sa tanong ko at bumaling sa direksyon ko.
"Actually meron, may nakagawa na ng kasalanan sa akin pero di naman aabot sa point na gagantihan ko sila." He sipped his milk. Tinignan ko siya ng naka-kunot ang noo.
"What?" He asked innocently.
"Drinking milk at night looks so gay." Wala akong pake kung mao-offend siya or what. Gusto ko lang sabihin 'yun. Come on, mas cool kaya kung ang iniinom niya ay beer or energy drink o kaya soda.
He chuckled. "Nau-uhaw kasi ako and allergic ako sa mga beer at soft drinks, ayoko rin ng lasa ng mga energy drink." That tells.
"Well, I've got nothing to say."
We stayed silent for about half an hour.
"I forgot, what's your name?" I asked him.
"Edward." Maikli niyang sagot.
"Nice name. So you wanna go out?"
"O-out?"
"I-I mean out.. Somewhere fun.. Yeah." Shit.
"Ah okay." Tumayo siya at pinagpag ang pantalon niya saka tumingin ulit sa akin.
"Just follow what I say and it will be fun.."
He nodded and smiled.
To be continued...
