Furious and angry
That is what Ursula is feeling right now habang patuloy ang pagmamaneho niya.
Well that's the right thing to feel right?
She just caught her boyfriend in the arms of the other woman. But would she consider that cheating kahit na may pag- aalinlangan siyang nararamdaman? Kilala niya si Meg, kahit na alam niya na hindi talaga siya nito mahal in the right sense of the words, hindi naman ito yung tipong babastusin ang kung anuman ang meron sila.
And they are still yet a couple kahit pa nga ba hindi sila nagkaka unawaan nitong mga nakalipas na araw.
So she presume that it was Glayssa Montreal's doing still.
In the right sense of it all, alam na alam niya rin na ang Glayssa na iyon ang naghahabol sa boyfriend niya, napakadesperada talaga.
May hitsura naman pero bakit hinayaan ang sarili na magpakababa ng ganoon, and besides wala naman siyang alam na kasalanan dito, so why targeted her relationship with Meg?
It was so confusing and her mind is in fiasco right now. Alam niya that in this state of mind kahit na anong pagbibigay niya ng rasyunal na dahilan sa mga nangyari it will not change the fact that she caught her boyfriend in the arms of another woman, and she is not sure kung wala o meron nga bang nangyari sa dalawa dahil kahit si Meg ay hindi mapaliwanag ng maayos sa kanya ang eksenang nadatnan niya sa bahay nito.
She needed something to help her clear her mind of, and of course to temporary erase this shitty feeling that she is feeling right now.
She made a turn and headed for the club. Maaga pa but she definitely would get what she wanted right now.
Pagbaba niya ng sasakyan ay hindi niya napuna ang pagparada ng isa pang kotse, she was oblivious of the things that surround her. She headed straight to the door of the club and yanked it open.
True to her words masyado pa ngang maaga para sa regular na pagbubukas ng club, wala pang gaanong tao maliban sa mga empleyado and some of the familiar face na palaging present sa lugar na iyon, and since she is a VIP ay agad namang siyang pinayagang makapasok sa loob.
Dire-diretso sa bar ang dalaga at agad na humingi ng tequila. Shit she badly needed this one upang pakalmahin ang sarili niya. Any moment from now alam niyang sasabog siya not unless masayaran ng alak ang lalamunan niya.
" Mukhang ang laki ng problema mo ah," she heard someone talk beside her. Paglingon niya ay si Krum ang nabungaran niya, part timer bartender ng Cappussina. " Ang aga nating magwalwal,"
" Shitty problem, " she just muttered at inisang lagok ang alak. She doesn't mind if she got wasted, safe naman ang Cappussina and beside Krum is her cousin kaya alam niyang walang mangyayari sa kanyang masama.
Krum chuckled, " Let me guess, hmm probably you caught your guy cheating on you right, " he teased, not minding if he's hitting it right or not.
" Shut it cous, iwanan mo na nga ako dito at magtrabaho ka na, " taboy niya dito at ipinagpatuloy ang pag inom, while sinking deeply in her thoughts once again.
Narinig niya ang mahinang paghalakhak nito, " Whatever you say cous', sige na magpakalunod ka na okay, but whenever you feel that you can't take it anymore just go to your usual room here at magpahinga ka. Do not attempt to leave Cappussina unless you are sober, " he warned before leaving her to her peace.
"Yeah yeah, whatever" she mumbled at ipinagpatuloy ang pag inom ng alak na animoy tubig lang ito. She really wanted to get wasted.
Once again deep in her thoughts, muli na naman niyang naisip ang nangyari kanina, ang pagkakita niya kay Glayssa Montreal sa bahay ng boyfriend niya, Glayssa who looked thoroughly lavished base na rin sa anyo nito at ang boyfriend niya na kunwari ay walang alam sa mga nangyayari but truth be told ay nasarapan din.
But damn it! How about the fact that Glayssa Montreal is purposely selling herself to her boyfriend? Hindi nga ba at iilang beses na may nakarating sa kanyang balita na sige sige ang panunuyo at paghahabol na ginagawa nito upang mapansin lang ng kanyang kasintahan, and the fact aslo that Meg is very vocal on telling her that Glayssa's overtures were indeed true at na hindi naman nito ito binibigyan ng pansin dahil sabi nga nito he was very committed to her. So which is true? Ano ba ang dapat paniwalaan? Ang nakita niya o ang sinasabi ng kasintahan na hinbdi ito interesado sa Montreal na iyon.
Shit lang! Feeling niya tuloy kahit hindi pa naman gaano umeepekto sa kanya ang alak na iniinom ay parang lumulutang na sa sakit ang kanyang ulo.
She honestly don't know who and what to believe anymore. Dinere-deretso niyua ang paglagok ng alak at muling humingi ng panibagong serve sa bartender. On and on she drank until she feel that she is getting dumb, habang unti unti namang dumarami ang tao sa bar. She doesnt mind them of course dahil langong-lango na siya sa sariling lungkot na nadarama.
Right she is sad, but the irony of it she is far from being in pain.
Why is that so?
"Hey!" that voice almost woked her up from her reverie. " Must you drank that liquor like it is a water? Ganoon ka ba talaga nasaktan at hinahayaan mo ang sarili mo na malunod sa alak? Was it really worth it?"
"L-leave me alone, h-hindi ko kailangan ang mga lessons in life mo." she sneered at the person who had the guts to sat next to her. "isa pa bakit ako ang kailangan leksiyunan mo, dapat yung m-makati mong kapatid ang unahin mong pangaralan, hindi niyo kasi narendahan kaya ayan naging p-pakawala at m-maharot na," She really hated those words that is coming out of her mouth, pero hindi niya magawang pigilan ang sarili na masabi ang mga iyon out of anger.
" About that I am sorry in behalf of my sister. Alam kong hindi maganda ang ginawa ni Glayssa for putting up that little stunt, at aaminin ko na hindi ko pa alam kung ano ang eksaktong nangyari, but rest assured that I will not let this pass. Kahit kapatid ko pa ang sangkot dito, I will make sure that everything will be put back in its proper order." nakatiim-bagang na sabi ni Frank Montreal.
Tila naman nahimasmasan siya ng marinig ang mabigat na tinig nito. He looks calm but his eyes definitely held warning on it. And it's captivating her, parang may sinasabi ang mga mata nito sa kanya, and somehow its making her uneasy and something beyond that. Andoon na naman ang pamilyar na sensasyon na iyon na sa tuwina ay nadarama niya kapag malapit ito
"I-im s-sorry, hindi ko dapat na sinabi ang mga salitang iyon, that was below the belt," she murmured. Hindi niya kasi matagalan na makipagtagisan ng tingin dito. " Excuse me, I need to go," she said at pinilit ang sarili na hindi mabuway ng siya ay tumayo mula sa kinauupuan. She does'nt trust herself pagdating sa lalaking ito. She is drunk but she is still on her right mind at ayaw niyang makagawa ng isang bagay na alam niyang maaaring pagsisihan niya.
O pagsisisihan nga ba?
