Against The Destiny

Chapter 19

#GrizaldeNineteen

"This doesn't taste bitter, ito na ang pinaka light."

Abot sa akin ni Jeremy sa isang shot na kulay pink.

"That's strawberry gin." He nodded at me, tinitigan ko ang hawak niya bago ito tanggapin.

"Loosen up, Lary!"

Kenea pat my shoulder, making me turn to her, namumula na ang pisngi nito. She's drunk already.

"We're here to make you forget your stress! The lights and crowd people won't make you forget about it, pero 'yan!" Nguso nito sa hawak ko. "Makakatulong 'yan ng very slight."

"Correct! But if you want, just drink this and you'll eventually pass out."

Inirapan ko si Jeremy na itinaas ang isang bote. Inamoy ko 'yan kanina, hindi ko pa naiinom ay nakakalasing na ang amoy.

"That's a hard liquor."

"That's the purpose! What do you want them to serve in this kind of place, gatas?!" Lumalaki ang mata ni Jeremy at mukhang kanina pa naiirita sa kaartehan ko.

Humaba ang nguso ko at muling tinitigan ang hawak ko bago ito inamoy, truth to Jeremy's words, this gin smells like strawberry.

"Go."

Jeremy chanted, I sighed and slowly sipped from it.

"Oh, diba? Sarap niyan, mahina lang."

I let the taste of the gin invade my taste buds and realize that it does really taste good, malamig siya sa pakiramdam.

"Girls!"

Nagulat ako sa pag tayo ni Kenea, it turns out that she's actually waving her hand to the group of girls in their revealing clothes.

Agad na umalis si Kenea sa table namin para puntahan ang grupo.

"That's her friends' from other school." Jeremy explained, which made me surprise. I never knew that Kenea is capable of having other friends.

Oo nga pala, ako lang ang hindi. I'm anti social, I'm introvert.

"Ikaw ba, meron din?"

I asked Jeremy, he nodded his head. Well, that's not surprising, nakakapanibago lang.

"Then you should try to find them, baka nasa paligid lang sila."

Natigilan si Jeremy mula sa pag inom, he slowly turn to me with confused look. I furrowed my head.

"Why?" I asked because he look weird staring at me.

"Are you jealous Hellary?"

I froze from where I'm sitting.

"W—what?"

Me? I'm not jealous!

"Oh, why am I even asking, tsk."

He suddenly leave his chair and sat beside me.

"I never expected that Hellary is the jealous type."

He teased, my cheeks instantly burned and push him away pero nag matigas ito at niyakap pa ang braso ko.

"I'm not jealous! Why would I be?!"

I could not stop myself but to feel embarass. I was just asking!

"Because you love us!"

He giggled and pinch my cheeks, making me groan and just let him do what he wants.

"You're so cute when you're jelly-jelly!"

"I'm not."

"Imagine the stone hearted Hellary got jelly! Wohoah!"
