The night before me and Elio travelled to Laguna I was invited by Levy for a drink together with his friends.
"Hey, Andrei do you think you can make it tonight. Sunod ka naman dito sa Chill Top sa may Lacson."
"Sorry Levy, I am preparing my stuff for tomorrow pa eh".
"Come on just tonight, kung ano man yang lakad mo for sure matutuloy yan but this you can't miss it. Please?"
"Alright, hahabol ako tapusin ko lang ang pag impake."
Para hindi malaman ni Levy na sasama ako kay Elio sa Laguna pumunta ako sa alok niya. Humabol ako sa gimik nila kahit alam ko na maaga pa ang biyahe namin bukas.
"Andrei, you made it . Alam ko na hindi mo ako bibiguin. How is my baby?"
"Baby ka dyan! Okay lang ako Levy. Ikaw how are you?"
"Ito miss ka, ilang linggo mo na rin akong hindi kinakausap".
Iba talaga ang tama sa akin ng alcohol. Naka ilang glass palang ako naiihi na ako.
"Excuse me! Nasaan ang restroom?", I asked the waiter
"Go straight and turn left po Sir"
Sa ilang baso na nainom ko medyo tipsy na ako. Nahihilo at ramdam ko na hindi na tuwid ang paglakad ko.
Inside the restroom, I bumped into someone.
"What the hell? Lasing ka ba?"
"Sorry, hindi kita nakita!" I said
"Andrei? Ikaw ba yan? Akala ko ....
Of all people bakit si Cody pa. Ayoko na ituloy pa ni Cody ang sasabihin niya kaya para pigilan siya hinila ko siya sa bakanteng cubicle.
I kissed him so he won't talk at all
Akala ko tutulakin nya ako sa ginawa ko.
But he did not
Cody and I had a scene inside that tiny cubicle
a hot one.
It was another night filled of mistakes.
2 am na nang makauwi ako.
"Shit 5:30 na ... late na ako!"
Dahil sa kalasingan nalate na ako ng gising.
Elio had 36 missed calls from me.
Nasa lobby na pala ng dorm si Elio kanina pa , nakakahiya.
I asked Elio na dadaan muna ako sa 7-11 to get a cold drink medyo nahihilo pa rin kasi ako.
It was a long ride dahil sa haba ng traffic. But thank God that we have arrived safely.
Wow ! Elio is like the son of a King.
No doubt na kayang-kaya niya tuparin ang pangako niyang 20,000 pesos na weekly allowance sa akin noon.
His family were very nice and welcoming lalo na ang Mommy niya.
The next day Elio toured me sa kanilang farm.
Dinala niya ako sa may ilog kung saan "His Safe Place" kung kanyang tawagin.
Napakasariwa ng hangin at napaka tahimik.
A 2-day Laguna escapade was not enough but we need to go home before Monday dahil may exams kami.
But the night before we go home Elio and I had a little moment.
It was a fun night
Dama ko na masaya ako .
Masaya ako sa kung anong meron kami ni Elio.
Hindi ko alam kung ano ang mararamdaman ko na ngayong mahal na ako ni Elio.
Katulad ng plano namin ni Cody matagumpay ko na napaibig si Elio.
Pero may mali sa nararamdaman ko
Bakit parang pati ako tinamaan na kay Elio
Totoo nga ang sabi nila na don't play with feelings dahil no one can ever control it.
In my case, I just want a revenge from Elio but what is happening was the opposite .
I am falling for him.
Mahal ko na si Elio.
