The bright light woke her up.
Tiara was feeling pissed. She always slept with her window curtains tightly closed and everyone knew that they shouldn’t mess up with her especially when she just woke up.
She immediately felt the nagging head ache and body soreness.
She slowly opened her eyes and noticed that she was in a strange place. It is clearly not her room. She massaged her temple and tried to remember the events from last night.
A moan escaped her lips because of nagging body pain when she tried to force her body up.Her recollection of last night is vague but she remembered feeling dizzy before she passed out.
Her hands moved on their own and started checking her body. Cold sweat coated her skin thinking of the worst things that might have happened. She was drugged once and she escaped it unscathed because Gael and his friends found her on time.
Party drugs are illegal but many still gets their hands into it. It is a growing problem in the party scenes these days and richer people are actually the ones who are into it. It is the main reason why Gael and his parents don’t want her to go to night parties alone.
Nobody is that lucky to escape twice right?
She has body pains but nothing was noticeable and alarming. She was still busy checking herself when the door opened somebody clear his throat.
‘You are finally awake,' Marco commented after putting the food tray in front of her.
She was dumbfounded.What is Marco doing here?
'Nasaan ako?’ naguguluhan niyang tanong dito.She doesn’t remember being with him last night. Her last recollection is being with Greig and his group. And feeling dizzy.
'When will you learn your lesson Tiara? If I haven’t seen you after sending Giselle, you might have been sexually abused by that drugged maniac!’ he hissed at her, disapproval was painted on his face.
Napalunok siya.She want to explain her side but she know that she will just be wasting her breath.
‘Where is Gael?’ she inquired in a husked voice. Gael must be pissed off. If his parents knew this they will definitely be doomed together.
'Gael was drunk and useless! How did you know that guy Tiara? I thought Gael already taught you not to accept opened drinks after that first time but look at where you are now! It was just matter of seconds before that bastard got his hands on you!’ he agrily shouted at her, umugong ang malakas na boses nito sa buong kwarto.‘Or is it what you wanted? You are always seeking for attention. Didn’t that guy give you the full attention you wanted but you thought you wanted out but it was too-'
'Shut up Marco,' she intervened. ‘I knew him from school, nothing more. And I never suspected na mangyayari to!’ she insisted.Greig was one of the nice guys girls often talk about at school. He was nice to her and she didn’t have any reason to suspect that he will do something like this.
‘You dressed the way you did and you’ll tell me na ganun lang?’ His finger pointed at her and to the barely there string holding her dress.‘Everyone saw how you flirted with him and we thought you are safe but you are lucky I was there before that bastard got his hands on you.’
What is wrong with her clothes?His girlfriend is wearing the same designs she does but he didn’t seem to have a problem with that. And what does he expect her to wear in the bar?
She looked at him in disbelief at tinapik niya ang kamay nito.‘You could have sent me home, I appreciated what you did and thank you but I don’t need to hear your lecture,’ naiinis na sagot niya dito.
Alam niya na mali siya and she don’t need the lecture to remind her of her foolishness.
