HEAVEN
“HEAVEN WAKE UP!” a familiar voice shouted while furiously banging my door
“I'm up, I'm up” I shouted as loud as I can, which is not that loud since I just woke up
I looked at the calendar then at the clock beside me. It was a damn holiday and they woke me up at seven o'clock!
After fixing myself, I went out of my room and eyed Brooke. She raised both of her hands saying she surrenders “Napagutusan lang ako!”
“Who!?” I asked, demanding for an answer
Stacey's door suddenly opened as she descended towards us all fixed up and ready to go. Where is she of to?
I saw Brooke pointed at Stacey and because of that, I glared at her. She raised her eyebrow with a questionable look on her face “What?”
“You fucking woke me up earlier than you are supposed to!” I roared furiously “It's a damn fucking holiday and you woke me up at 7!?”
She rolled her eyes “Damn, are you sure your not sobber?”
I groaned in frustration “Oo naman!”
“Really?” she mocked “Hindi ka na lasing?”
“No, and who's idea was it to drink last night?” I sarcastically asked
“Mine” she answered firmly “Dress up, we're going to Santiago's Sunshine”
I raised my eyebrow “Bakit tayo pupunta sa bar, not to mention na ang aga pa?”
“First of all, alas syete na ng gabi, you over slept you idiot” she borely answered
My eyes widened at her statement “GABI NA!?”
She rolled her eyes, again “Hindi, madaling-araw na”
“Whatever”

I don't know how, but we are in a fucking bar. I don't mind drinking, in fact I have a high alcohol tolerance but I avoid going to public bar's especially those who allows smoking.
“Why are why are we even here, Stacey” I asked “At diba underage kapa?”
“Shut it Heaven” she hissed “Nandito tayo because of three reasons”
“And that is?” I curiously asked
“One, because I'm meeting someone important. And no, not romantic kind of meeting” she said “Two, nandito ang suspek”
“And the third one is?” I asked, eyebrow raised
She chuckled meaningly “May lovelife na kayong tatlo at kahit ako ang pinakabata, I need a partner too you know?”
“Am I even talking to Stacey right now? Hindi ito si Yvonne?” I asked
Who knows that Stacey was abducted by am alien and then replaced by a carbon copy?
“I was kidding Heaven” she said and disappeared in the crowd
How convenient is that?
I sighed, I ordered a shot of tequila because I don't fucking have anything to do.
Later, I was accompanied by our drunk suspect slash target. Can't this night be any worse?
“Heaven, darling” he called but later then hiccuped
“Apollo, your drunk” I said “Where is your friends?”
He chuckled “Making out somewhere, why is that?”
“Where do you live?” I asked
“At ******** street, ###” he answered
I shook my head, that's too far. I can't drive him there.
“That's too far” I commented “Do you live with someone?”
He nodded “My sister”
I was about to get his phone from his pocket when he held my hand tightly “What the fuck Apollo?”
He chuckled. He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him.
We are few inches apart, he closed his eyes and pulled me closer.
I tried to struggle but his grip was to strong. He was about to kiss me, I hopelessly closed my eyes waiting for his lips to touch mine but instead I heard a loud thud.
I opened my eyes, only to see Apollo laying at the floor unconscious while Elliot was fuming mad.
Nobody noticed since the music was too loud and people were busy doing other stuff.
I grabbed his wrist and pulled him outside the bar.
“Thank you” I mumbled
He just smiled and messed my hair up “No problem, Heaven”
“Pero may mission ka pa, bakit ka nandito?” I curiously asked
“Nandito din ang target ko, pero nakita kita” he answered
I couldn't help but feel guilty, because of me he lost sight of his target “I-I'm sorry”
“For what?” he asked, obviously confused
“Because of me, nawala ang atensyon mo sa target” I answered while looking at the ground, avoiding eye contact
He again chuckled and messed up my hair again “That was nothing, hindi naman yun mawala at tsaka may bukas pa”
I didn't know what I was thinking, but I suddenly hugged him “Thank you, Elliot”
ELLIOT
I was caught off guard when she suddenly hugged me. I never expected for her to do that.
“Thank you, Elliott” bulong niya tamang-tama lang para marinig ko
Nanatili kaming ganyan hanggang sa makatulog siya yakap-yakap ako.
Umiling nalang ako at natawa, ang babaeng ito talaga.
Kinarga ko siya papunta sa kotse ko at pinaupo sa shotgun ride. Pumunta naman agad ako sa driver seat at nagmaneho.

Kumatok ako sa pinto ng dormitoryo nila habang karga-karga ko parin si Heaven. Nakakalimang katok na ako at nangangalay na ang kamay ko.
Biglang bumukas ang pinto at nakahinga ako ng maluwag. Nakita ko si Brooke at ng nakita niya ang walang-malay kong kasama ay agad niya akong pinapasok.
Ng inihiga ko ang babae sa kama niya, lumabas na ako.
Ng makarating ako sa labas ng sasakyan ko, parang may nakatingin sa'kin, I just shrugged it off at sumakay na sa kotse.
