Toxic

Nanginginig ang aking mga kamay habang sinusubukan kong tawagan ang cellphone ni Dylan. I'm trying my best not to cry because of anger. I want to burst out but I'm stopping myself!

Na post iyong video and pictures ko online. Everyone saw it. They stained my name. My family's name!

All i need is Dylan but now i think they also destroyed what we have!

"Dylan," I cursed when he declined the call for the nth time. "Fuck... fuck... fuck..."

When he declined it again, I immediately threw my phone out of frustration.

"What did i do?" I shut my eyes tightly as i pulled my hair.

I don't know what to do, where to go and who to talk. I don't know...

I tried to remember what happened last night. Nakipag usap ako kay Lorence, nag inuman kami. I was only on my second shot when i lost my senses. He said it's just a cuervo but why does it hits so hard?

Mataas ang tolerance ko pag dating sa alak. I've been partying for years, sobrang imposible na mawalan agad ako ng malay sa dalawang shot ng cuervo! And it's very impossible that i kissed someone willingly while I'm in relationship....

Is there a possible that he... drugged me? Him and his friends? But how?

At anong sinabi ni Dylan? Is he back? Nakita na kaya nya iyong video? Well, I guess yes! Base on his recent text! He said i hurt him. He said he can't take it. What will he do? What will i do? hindi ko naman alam kung paano nangyari yung gano'n... fuck.

"Ayhin,"

Pinunasan ko ang kaunting luhang lumandas sa akin ng tingalain ko ang pintuan ng hotel room. Doon sumalubong sa akin si Gwynette at si Kylla na parehong nahinto ng makita ako sa lapag.

"Hey, Aye..." Agad na lumapit sa akin si Gwynette at niyakap ako.

"Gwy..." I croaked. "Si Dylan,"

"Shh. Kumain ka na ba?"

I shook my head. Kailangan ko ng umalis. I want to see Dylan or else I'm gonna burst here with unanswered questions in my head.

"Kailangan kong puntahan si Dylan, Gwy."

"Ayhin—"

"I need to see him, please. Kailangan ko si Dylan..." I pleaded as i look at her eyes.

Ayokong umuwi sa bahay dahil hindi ko pa kayang harapin sina papa. They will only scold me and I don't need that now. I want Dylan. I need to see him and explain my side because I know he's hurting!

Sinong hindi masasaktan pag nakitang mong may kahalikang iba ang girlfriend mo?! And that picture in the lobby, kung sino man ang nakakita noon ay iniisip nang may nangyari sa amin ni Lorence!

"I'll drive." Nilingon ko si Kylla. "Sige na. Mag ayos kana Ayhin,"

"But—" Naputol si Gwynette dahil agad agad akong tumayo doon.

Kinuha ko lang ang dala dala kong bag dahil iyon lang naman ang gamit ko. I don't even care if i leave the hotel with a wasted face like this. Walang suklay at suot suot pa ang damit kagabi, wala na akong pakeelam.
