" Threaten"

Sa pagpatak ng mabibigat na butil ng luha, kasabay ng pagbuhos ng langit. Sumasabay sa alon at bugso ng pakiramdam ko.

"It's raining." I mumble in his chest.

Nakahawak lang siya sa likod ko. His shirt is starting to get wet and also mine.

"I know..." he breathe out. "We need to go inside." He assist me to the club.

We know multiple times before JM open the door. She looks more grumpy like a nan.

"What is it Kylo?" Masama ang titig niya, nang lumipat sa akin lumapad ang ngiti. "Well, well... looks who's here."

I cleared my throat and hide at his side body. I slowly bow my head and bit my lip.

"Why are you hiding?" He asked.

I just shake my head. Mahigpit akong nakahawak sa siko niya, pilit na tinatago ang sarili.

"We're going to stay here for a while. I left my car somewhere far." Dagdag niya.

JM raised her brow and squint her eyes at Kylo. "Talaga ba?"

"Shut up, JM"

Sisilipin ko sana ang mukha niya kaso naglakad na papasok. JM wink at me and wiggle her brows. She looks more drunk now, and wasted.

"Come here, Alivia." He tapped the chair beside him. Lumunok muna ako at dinama muna kung anong nangyayari sa pakiramdam ko.

"Alivia, you're wet! Come here now." He sound desperate while holding a handkerchief.

JM went to the bar again and made a drink for herself. I walked slowly to Kylo and pretend that I am not affected.

"You guys ,make my mind green." She said in a weird way.

Kylo's hand went to my head and wipe the wet part of my hair. His touches make my body react in a different way. It's simple yet it is comforting.

"You need to sleep, You're drunk JM." He stopped for a while. I look back at him. I think they are using their eyes to signal something.

Lumalaki ang mata ni JM and katawan naman ni Kylo ay hindi 'man lang gumagalaw. But his cheekbones are moving.

Hinablot ko ang panyo sa kamay niya at siya naman ang pinunasan ko. His body stilled and slowly turned his head on me.

Our eyes met and I look deeply into his eyes and I wish he could tell me what's on his head right now. His lips are pressed hard and he is looking down at his hands.

"Bye lovebirds." Kumaway ng madami si JM bago gumapang papunta sa office niya.

He pulled my hand to continue what I'm doing. We were both silent but I know we both have this unknown connection.

"How are you?" I asked him while brushing his hair through my hands. He lean his head to the side and feel the warmth of my hands.

"I am okay." Sumilay ang kaonting ngiti sa labi niya. Nakakahilo bigla, para akong nalulunod, nalalasing.

"You're not." I whispered and my hand went to his cheek to brush it lightly.

His eyes slowly closed and let a heavy sighed. My eyes are fixed to his small movements.

"I'm drunk, very drunk."

I licked my lips and put my hands on my lap. "Mukha naman hindi ka lasing kanina? "

Pinakita niya ang maliit na bote ng alak. Kasya sa loob ng jacket niya?

"Lasing na lasing na ako." Tumawa siya nang may kakaibang kahulugan na hindi ko maintindihan.
