Flashbacks
With a gloomy feeling, I gripped the shot glass hardly and drank the hard liquor straight. I again felt the burning sensation on my throat that made me gasp.
I felt someone move near me.
"AC, let's get you home."
Kahit medyo nahihilo ako, tumayo ako at hinarap ito.
"This early? Oh come on, Kiro. The night's still young!" I laughed. "I still wanna have some fun."
Maglalakad sana ako nang matapilok ako. Oh no, di pala ako natapilok. He saved me yet again. Maraming beses na akong malapit matapilok at nandoon siya palagi para alalayan ako.
"You're so sweet." I smiled.
Nakita kong napabuntong hininga siya at hinawakan ang bewang ko. Oh shit no! He's gonna carry me home!
"No! I don't want to go home yet!" Pag-aangal ko, pero hindi niya ako pinagbigyan.
"Whether you like it or not, I'm gonna take you home. You drank 7 shots, AC. For pete's sake, those contained hard liquors! When will you listen to me, you stubborn brat?" Singhal niya.
Para kaming tangang nag-aaway sa bar niya. Some even annoyingly look at our direction.
"I don't care! I wanna get wasted! Let me!" Sinubukan kong kumawala mula sa mahigpit na pagkakahawak niya sa bewang ko pero hindi ako makawala. He's just too strong!
Sumimangot ako at inirapan siya nang mapagod ako.
"Let me go!"
"Let me get you to your house first."
I clenched my fists. "Ayoko nga! I'll sleep in your room here!"
He has a room here because the bar only occupies 1st to 4th floor. He owned the whole 5th floor and made it his room just in case he couldn't get to his house. This building is up to 5th floor and apparently, he owns this building in whole.
"No. Mag-aalala si Tita Cherine." Pinalis niya ang mga ilang hibla ng buhok na napunta sa mukha ko at nilagay ito sa likod ng tenga ko.
Nanlaki ang mga mata ko.
I gulped. "S-she won't. M-mom's not here." I stuttered, still shocked of what he did.
Napatitig ako sa kanya.
My gaze travelled from his magnetizing attractive eyes, his pointed nose, chiseled jaw to his plumpy kissable lips.
"Kiro, just once. Just this once."
His forehead creased. "What?"
"Let me escape."
Nilapit ko ang mukha ko sa kanya. I felt his hot breath and even his body becoming stoic.
Just when my lips are about to reach his, a strong arm grasped my wrist.
My eyes widened when I saw a familiar face. Ang blur ng paningin ko but his face really seems familiar.
"Who are you?" Tanong ko pero hindi niya ako pinansin. Nakatingin lang siya kay Kiro.
I felt goosebumps all over my body as my vision slowly became clear. As I start getting sober, my heartbeat's pace fastened. Hindi ko alam kung ilang lunok ang nagawa ko nang makita kung sino ang nakahawak ng mahigpit sa pulso ko.
Unknowingly, I muttered his name. "Chaos."
I felt my body become weak.
Damn. No. He shouldn't see me in this state. He shouldn't see me weak.
