"Merlyn!" I really need to drink fuck.

"Yes, Kat?" She asked.

"I need a freaking beer right now," she just rolled her eyes on me.

"Really? That's how you gonna deal with your problems?" Argh, bakit nga ba ito ang kinuha kong sekretarya?

"Can you please shut up? Please, I really need one. God bakit ba bestfriend ko ang secretary ko," I rolled my eyes in frustration.

"Oh, sorry, eto na bibili na. Pero 'di kita masasamahang uminom ha? Hindi kasi ako boss dito e, madami akong kailangang reports. Baka naman madam, 'wag ka ding palalasing ng todo ha?" Paalala nito sa akin. Oh God, sino bang nalalasing sa konting beer?

Binilhan ako ng anim na beer in a can ni Merlyn. Inubos ko itong lahat at t'yaka umiyak. Hindi naman ganoon kalakas ang tama sa'kin pero, siguro ganito talaga kapag may pinagdadaanan.

"Why do you need to leave me? You know I'm not that strong dad," bulong ko sa aking sarili.

Maya maya pa ay lumabas na ako sa aking firm. Pasakay na ako sa aking sasakyan nang bigla akong mahilo. Shit, it's just 6 beers why?

Mahuhulog na sana ako sa lapag nang biglang may umalo sa akin. Ah, that scent. I know, it's him. It's Fucking Paul Adam Mauricio D. Lee. My freaking crush since I was in freaking grade 4.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm just—"

"You're drunk." May diin sa kan'yang pagkakasabi.

"No, it's just 6 beer," I honestly told him. "And for fuck's sake you know that I'm high tolerance when it comes to alcohol,"

"Oh, is that so? Okay, ihahatid kita," napakunot ang aking noo sa kan'yang sinabi.

"Ihahatid?"

"Yeah, hindi ka pwedeng magdrive ng lasing," he told me rolling his eyes.

"Paano kung ayoko?" Hamon ko rito.

"Gugustuhin mo." May diin ang pagkakasabi n'ya nito.

Hindi ko na alam kung ano ang eksaktong pangyayari, ngunit bigla nalang akong nasa kan'yang sasakyan. Nakaupo s'ya sa driver's seat at tinatanong kung saan ako umuuwi.

"Okay, huling tanong kona ito. Where do you live now?" He asked.

"I... really don't know," I honestly said.

"What?" Hindi makapaniwalang tanong nito. "You're Khraeaveaenne Athena Tala K. Madriaga for pete's sake. Sabihin mo na't para makapagpahinga ka na,"

"I honestly don't know, I usually slept on my office. Sometimes in Merlyn's condo, but Merlyn is out of town. She visits her mother. And now, I just want to party out there and feel free for everything because it suffocates me,"

"Oh, let's go. To our old condo," he said with finality. "Wala ka palang tinitirhan bakit mo pa ibinigay sa'min ang bahay ng daddy mo?" Tanong nito.

"Dahil kayo ang nakatira doon," sagot ko.

"Uh-huh, sa yaman mong 'yan wala ka talagang bahay?"

"What? Oh my God, anong gagawin ko sa bahay? E, ni hindi nga ako umuuwi dahil wala din naman akong uuwian," paliwanag ko rito.

"Mm 'kay,"

Silence filled our way to our 'old condo'. I suddenly miss my father. Guilty and regrets filled my mind every single second. Sana pala binigyan muna kita ng apo dy, 'yan pa naman hiling mo sa akin.

"Hey, Adam, may girlfriend ka?" I suddenly asked.

"Wala, why?" Casual n'yang sagot.

"Pakasalan mo'ko," I said.

"Ayokong magpakasal sa lasing," sagot nito.

"Seryoso ako," sagot ko rito.

"Why me?"

"Why not you?"
