(FHS #5) Silverianne Villafranca only wanted one thing when she came to Filimon Heights - freedom. However, she got more than what she bargained for the moment she met the town's local rebel who comes with a crazy package.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to graduate this month, Ms. Villafranca."
Nakakapanghina. Iniisip ko pa lang ang magiging reaksyon nina Mommy at Daddy, nadudurog na ako. At ang pangarap kong internship... wala na.
Ginawa ko naman ang lahat pero bakit kulang pa rin? Did I get too distracted? Was I too dumb? Were my efforts not enough?
Puchangama, kahapon lang nag-away kami ni Jethro tapos ito naman ngayon.
"Hey, you're too pretty to be sad. Is there any way that I can help you?" Lumapit sa akin ang isang lalake pero hindi ko siya tinapunan ng ni isang segundong tingin. Patuloy lang ako sa pag-inom mula sa maliit na bote ng alak. I thought the loud music and strobe lights would somehow drown my sorrows out, but I was wrong.
"You can help by getting your ugly ass away from her. Shoo!" Ronie spat out fiercely from the other side of the counter. She's doing a much better job than I ever did here as a bartender.
When the guy left, natawa na lamang ako at pinunasan ang labi ko.
Sumandal si Ronie sa counter, humalumbaba habang nakatingin sa akin. "You are so full of surprises, Villafranca. I didn't take you for someone who clings to alcohol when shit hits the fan."
"Don't judge me, Ronelio. Ngayon lang 'to." I shrugged at nagpatuloy na lamang sa pag-inom.
Inagaw ni Ronie ang bote mula sa akin. Babawiin ko sana pero mabilis siyang umatras. "That's it. You've had enough."
"Boy problems?"
I heard the sound of a girl's voice beside me. Sabay kaming napatingin ni Ronie at nakita ang isang babaeng nakasuot ng manipis na sando at mini-skirt. She's just standing and leaning over at the counter, butt protruding and cleavage on full show for us. Aside from her revealing outfit, her face stood out to me as well. She looks like an angel with a flirty grin, add that she looks drunk as hell.
"What can I get you?" tanong agad ni Ronie sa babae.
"Your number." She winked at Ronie.
"911," Ronie quipped seductively, sticking her tongue out.
Tumawa ang babae at dumako ang tingin sa akin. Laking gulat ko nang bigla niyang itinaas ang gilid ng sando niya, sapat para makita namin ang tattoo na nasa ilalim lang ng left boob niya. Thank God she's wearing a bra otherwise we'd see her melon!
"Piece of advice, my girl." She grinned.
"I'm not getting a tattoo. Not my thing." Umiling na lamang ako at umiwas ng tingin.
"No! The phrase! Basahin mo!" she giggled in her drunken stupor.
Lumabas si Ronie mula sa pwesto niya at siya mismo ang nagbaba sa t-shirt ng babae. "Just tell us what the phrase is, drunkie. We don't want to see your boobies."
