" Hellooooooo! How may I help you?" sagot sa kabilang linya ng kaibigan kong tinawagan ko ngayon lang.

" Anj, free ka ngayon?" mahinang boses na tanong ko.

" Uhmmm, wait lang. I'll check my schedule pa."

Narinig ko ang malalim na paghinga ani Angela habang naririnig ko ang pag-click sa mouse ng computer niya sa kabilang linya. Maybe she's checking her online schedule?

" Ally! I'm sorry, I have dinner meeting with a VIP client tonight! " She said. " How about bukas?"

" Ohh, it's okay." I said.

" How about bukas? Free ako after 7PM!" she offered.

" Ano ka ba.. It's okay, I just feel like drinking tonight. Coz you know, malaya na ako... ulit."

" How about bukas nga? Let's drink bukas?" she's insisting...

"But Anj, I have to work tomorrow na agad." I laugh after saying that. Napapa-conyo tuloy ako sakanya.

"Hmmmm. Okay! I'm really sorry, Ally. I'll make it up to you next time ha?"

"May utang ka na sakin then." biro ko habang tumatawa.

"Oo na! Sorry talaga!" sabi niya at natawa din. "Oh wait! Why don't you ask Franz pala?  Maybe she's available? But if she can't come din, just make sure you get home safe ha?" pahabol niya.

" Conyo ka talaga no? Hahaha" pang aasar ko, not minding what she just told me.

I already know that Franz is busy right now 'coz of  Law school. She needs to maintain her GPA. That brainy friend of mine.

"Ano ba! Basta mag-ingat ka please? And don't wear your little black dress if you don't want any attention!" medyo demanding na sabi niya.

I laugh, "I know that now, Angela. But thanks anyway, magkukulong lang naman ako sa VIP room tonight."

"What? You'll stay sa VIP room lang? That sounds so boring naman of you. First time yata na you'll just stay inside that room?!" She said, medyo hysterical.

"Just this once. " I calmly said.

"Okay, whatever! I'll hang up now, I am medyo in a hurry, e! Love you, Ally!"

"Love you, too." pagkasabi ko ay pinatay na niya ang tawag.

Inihagis ko sa kama ang phone ko at dumiretso sa banyo para maligo..

After taking a bath.. I started to blow dry my hair using my lange hair dryer. Sobrang haba na ng buhok ko, halos umabot na hanggang balakang sa sobrang haba. May kakapalan din, kaya tuwing naliligo ako, ang dami kong nagagamit na shampoo and conditioner. Lalo na ang nasasayang na oras kapag nagpapatuyo ng buhok.

"Why men great 'til they gotta be great?

Woo

I just took a DNA test, turns out I'm 100% that bitch"

That's my alarm clock. It's now 7 in the evening.

That's Truth Hurt by Lizzo. Sinabayan ko ang kanta habang nagpapatuyo ng buhok.

"Why men great 'til they gotta be great?
Don't text me, tell it straight to my face
Best friend sat me down in the salon chair
Shampoo press, get you out of my hair
Fresh photos with the bomb lighting
New man on the Minnesota Vikings
Truth hurts, needed something more exciting
Bom bom bi dom bi dum bum bay"

It took me like 35 minutes to dry my freakin' hair.

Sinuklay ko ito pataas tsaka itinali pa-pony tail. Even when my hair's up umaabot pa rin ang dulo nito sa bewang ko. I think I need a trim..
