Pumunta si Cedrick sa bar kung nasaan si Mike. Tinext siya nito kaya naman agad niya itong pinuntahan. He also heard something odd is happening between his friend and that girl named Cassandra. Kilala niya ang kaibigan kaya alam niya kung kailan ito may mabigat na problema.
It has been many days, no, weeks na ganito si Mike. He has been drinking almost every night after school. Pati ang performance niya as captain of their team apektado na rin
"ano pare, new hobby?" he muttered as he sat, facing him. This bar is just one of the businesses that Mike's family owned kaya naman kahit anong oras pwede sila dito.
Mike just ignored his presence and continued on drinking his liquors. Nakisabay na rin siya.
"hinahanap ka ni Cassandra, may project daw kayo, Case Study ata 'yun" sabi niya ulit pero deadma pa rin siya kay Mike.
"pare, narinig mo ako? hinahanap ka ni--"
"wala akong pakialam sa kanya" he cutted his words. Cedrick just shrugged. 'Mukhang may LQ nga sila'. He thought to himself.
"nagaway ba kayo?" tanong niya na naman. For the third time, hindi na naman siya pinansin ni Mike. Suddenly, two flirtatious girls came to them. Each sat on their laps.
"hi baby, I miss you so much. Bakit ngayon ka lang pumunta dito? Baka may iba ka na?" one of the girls said erratically on Mike as her hands roamed around his body.
"naku, kapag nakita 'yan ni Cassandra , siguradong magagalit siya" pagpaparinig naman ni Cedrick. They both seemed oblivious with the girls.
"baby, who's that Cassandra? girlfriend mo ba siya?" the girl asked caressing his cheeks. Hindi pa rin ito pinapansin ni Mike.
"girlfriend niya" sabat naman ni Cedrick. He noticed that caught his attention. He glared at him.
"baby? is that true?" sabi muli ng babae na parang bata na nagtatampo at naiinis.
"hindi" He lamely answered and took a shot.
"hindi? o hindi pa?" Cedrick again teased with a mocking grin.
"hindi! at hinding hindi mangyayari" sagot pa ni Mike. Hurt, frustration and madness were evidence in his voice.
"bakit naman?"
"she has her man"
"I see. Kaya ka pala nagkakaganyan" He whispered slowly sipping his drink. He deathly glared at him kaya naman tumayo na siya.
"Tara na, pare. Itulog mo nalang yan."
"Mauna ka na. uubusin ko muna 'to."
" tara na. May practice pa rin bukas. "
"I'm fine." Pagmamatigas pa rin ni Mike. Wala na siyang nagawa kundi ihabilin nalang muna sa mga staffs ng bar ang kaibigan.

That woman on his lap just continued on trailing kisses on his face and neck. He niether stopped her nor responded to her.
Kanina pa siya nandito sa bar pero hindi pa rin siya nalalasing. Nakarating na't nakaalis si Cedrick wala pa ring epekto ang mga alak na iniinom niya. Now, she crossed in his mind again. The girl he wants to forget kahit ngayong gabi lang.
"let's go?" the girl said. He frowned.
"oh c'mon honey, have you forgotten already what we used to do before? hmm?" and nibbled his earlobe.
"I will make you forget everything tonight" and kissed his lips. Hindi pa rin siya nagre-respond.
"so this is what makes you busy, huh." rinig niya and he surely knows who is the owner of that voice. He immediately pushed the girl on his lap and looked at the woman who is now standing infront of him, arms crossed on her chest with an eyebrow raising. Parang siyang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig nang magtama ang paningin nila.
