The Cloaked Truth Series #3: In The Middle [Completed]

002.

The mad howling wind echoed in my ears whilst i was standing outside my car eyeing the huge sign of Rouge Bar. Flicking the tip of the lighter, i started to put up a fire on the small stick of cigars that's on my mouth. I heaved a sigh.

Where is that cluck? When the cigars starts producing smokes i immediately putted the lighter inside my jean's pocket and walked across the streets.

I was blinded by the lights when i entered the bar, i almost choke on my own breath with the carbon smell of mixed cigarettes and liqours. It was full of chaos. People going crazy for being drunk. I smirked.

Nahagilap ng mala-abo 'kong mga mata si Hayden na tumatawa habang may babaeng nakakandong sa mga hita nito. Hindi ako nagdalawang isip na muling ihakbang ang mga paa ko sa kinaroroonan nito. Kasama niya ang dalawa pang ibang lalaki.

One of them seems familiar, so i'm keeping an eye on him. He doesn't seem like a civillian.

"Rohan, dude!" Hayden exclaimed, i only gave him a right eyebrow lift.

"Long time no see,"

"Long time no see, Hayden." I replied back. Idinapo ko naman ang mga tingin ko sa dalawang lalaking matatalim din ang tingin sa akin atsaka naupo sa couch katabi si Hayden.

I poured myself a mohito on a wine glass. Sumimsim ako roon at bumuntong hininga.

"What do we have here?" i uttered.

"Oh, this is Dashiel and this is Raven." Pagpapakilala sa akin ni Hayden ng dalawa niyang kasama. I cleared my throat.

"Priamos, Priamos Rohan. Nice meeting you." I said with a baritone tone of voice they just nodded as a reply.

Makalipas ang ilang minuto ay hindi ako lumikha ng kahit anong imik except for them. Hayden's voice is too loud that i wanted to get out of here.

They were talking about their personal life which i can't really tell them what's mine. Nakatungo lamang ako habang nakikinig sa kanila at paminsan-minsan pa ay sumisimsim ng alak sa babasaging baso na hawak ko.

May mga babae ring lumalapit sa akin but, i didn't care that much since i came here not for fun but to drink.

I ended up saying harsh words to them just to go away from me. I don't really have women on my list as a priority. I only think about myself.

True, i'm a selfish person, heartless and whatsoever. I only care about me.

"Dude, we need to go. Priam, nice meeting you again." The man, Raven, said.
