Wounded Memories (La Union Series #1)

23

Hapon na nung sinundo ako ni Ayna sa bahay. I will be living with her for the whole month. Pumayag naman agad sila mom dahil alam naman nilang magiging maayos kaming dalawa.

The apartment she's renting when we were college was already sold to someone. She had to find another one around San Juan.

"Sino naghatid saatin kagabi?"

I curiously asked her while she's driving. Hanggang ngayon ay palaisipan pa din saakin kung sinong naghatid saakin sa bahay.

Sa sobrang kalasingan ay hindi ko na maalala. I just woke up earlier lying in my bed. I remember talking to some stranger last night. Even with the thought that he's just a stranger, I felt a weird connection. I couldn't figure it out.

"H-indi ko na din maalala.. nag pass out din ako"

Before going to her new apartment we decided to buy our supplies in the market. Madaming tao pero nagawa pa din naming makabili ng mga kakailanganin namin sa buong buwan.

"Ako na magbabayad," Ayna offered.

Before she could even give her card I already slid mine in the cashier's hand. Ayna pinched my waist while pouting her lips.

"It's all mine.. ako naman makikitira sa'yo" I laughed.

She rolled her eyes, "Then akin na yung drinks natin"

Hinayaan ko lang siyang bumili ng mga alak sa 7/11. I waited for her inside the car. May isang lalaki na tumulong para mabuhat niya yung dalawang karton ng alak.

When she's finally inside the car, I started asking her questions like why did she bought a lot of liquor. It's still too early.

"I invited some friends. You wouldn't mind naman diba?"

I nodded my head, "Sinong friends?"

"Mga classmates ko before. Don't worry pupunta din sila Kevs so you won't feel alone" she assured me.

Dalawa kaming nagpasok nung mga boxes at iba pang supplies. It was heavy but we still managed to carry it.

Her new apartment is bigger than the old one. It has an infinity pool and a garden. Madami nang mono block chair sa may pool side nung napadaan kami.

"You planned this?"

She winked at me, "You wanted to be wasted. Then let's be wasted together!"

Iniwan ko na muna siya sa kusina para maiayos ko na yung mga gamit ko sa isang guest room, katabi nung kuwarto niya.

Puti lang ang kulay ng pader at napapalibutan yun ng mga gamit na gawa sa wooden material. May sarili din akong banyo at cabinet.

After fixing my things, I went to the comfort room to take a shower. I just changed into a white maong shorts and a red off shoulder cinch top.

Linugay ko lang yung buhok at nagspray ng pabango. I took my phone with me before walking out of my room.

Nakarinig na ako ng ibang boses nung pababa ako. Kararating lang nila Kevin at Krissa habang sina Lysa, Gail at Moses ay on the way palang daw.

"Where's the red cups? Yung mga pingpong balls?" tanong ni Gail.

Ayna pointed the hanging cabinet above the sink. Agad itong lumapit dun para mahanap yung mga gamit na kakailanganin namin.

"Madami ba tayo?" takang tanong ko kay Ayna nung makita siyang naglalabas pa ng extra'ng upuan.
