Chapter 2

“Girl, where are you? You're so slow, Where already here, I'm with Zari. ” Mitch said on the other line.

"I'm on the way" I replied "I'll hung up."

I turned off the call and put the phone on the table. The group decided celebrate my birthday at the bar owned by Mitch's fiancee.

This is the reason why I want my older brother to go home, today is my birthday, I'm thirty now and for others this is the day that you will go beyond the 'supposed' calendar.

I'm wearing a black fitted dress, it's also shows my back and my cleavage almost exposed. I partnered it with 4inches black high heels and a maroon lip stick.

"Gorgeous." I complimented myself while looking in the mirror. I looked so pretty and wild, Love it.

I picked up my Gucci sling bag placed on the bed and my car key. I exited the bedroom and went to the garage. Manang wanted to prepare a Party but I refused. I just told her to cook something so we could eat together later.

I looked at my wrist watch and sighed, it’s exactly Twelve midnight now, Dec 10. I always celebrate my birthday with Manang and my friends, I never celebrate my birthdays with my family. I didn't even celebrate my 18th birthday.

"On the way!? but it took you 30mins to come here, you're joking, girl?" I laughed at what Zari said. I arrived at the bar and we are in the VIP room now.

"Yeah. But let's just give her a break, she's always late. You know? Filipino time! ” Mitch rolled her eyes at me, so I did the same to her, after that we both laughed.

"It's my birthday, so please don't preach to me today!" I told them and sat down.

They already ordered some liquor. I saw that they were ready. We continued to talk at the same time drinking.

“I was planning to introduce my Fiancé to you, but he's so so so busy. I'm sad! ” Mitch said and pout.

She was already drunk, we only had ten shots and she’ already drunk. Zari was tipsy and I am not because I have high tolerance.

"I'm so mad to him, he's so busy… .." She said

“Why? Does he have a mistress?" Zari teased her to make her more sad, I just laughed at them too.

This is where the quarrel between the two begins, Mitch is a talkative type of girl while Zari is a bitch and I am the one who balance our friendship.

“No! I know the reason, but he still needs to give me time. I am jealous of that freaking wedding! ”

That's when I laughed even more because of what Mitch said, his fiancé is taking care of their wedding now because he doesn't want Mitch to get tired. Psh!

Zari just laughed at her and started drinking again, Mitch just kept complaining to us until she fell asleep. Zari, on the other hand, is still Stable like me but she is more tipsy than me.

"Yes please. She's already sleeping, You need to fetch her, we won't be able to drive her home later. We’re already tipsy.” Zari said to the person she was talking to, while Mitch and I looked at each other. He's talking to Mitch’s fiancé now.

Mitch is now lying on the couch and she’s using my thigh as a pillow while I am caressing her hair. Zari dropped the call and smiled at me.

“He’s on the way, let's just wait for him. Then my husband also texted me, he said he would pick me up as well. ” Zari said, she even smiled at me and looking at me to say ‘Sorry’, I just smiled at her to said 'it's okay'.

It’s already 3am when Mitch’s fiancé arrived. Zari and I even laughed when we saw him wearing his pajamas. It looks like he has just woken up and his hair is also very messy, just a few minutes later Zari’s husband came to picked up Zari, She even asked me if I wanted to come home but I just refused.

I sighed, before we could hardly go home and just fell asleep drunk but now someone is fetching them. I'm happy for them, they found a man that will love them. So maybe that’s the reason why I don’t easily get drunk because no one will pick me up.

I went out to the VIP room to socialize outside, it's my day so I want to enjoy.

I'm not going to get drunk, I just need to forget my problem and drinking is one of my solutions to forget my problem. Even just a few hours.

"One vodka please." I told the bartender as I sat down on the bar stools.

He immediately gave it to me, when he gave it I immediately took it and drank it, I ordered another one until it became five. I feel like someone is looking at me or maybe it’s just an illusion.

I could hear the rhythm of the song and the people dancing, some were shouting because of the fun they were feeling and others were just smiling while dancing. There are also a circle of friends sitting and having fun, and others were flirting.

We have different reasons why we are here, most of them are here to have fun and forget their problems, just like me.

"Hey, pretty lady."

I stopped observing my surroundings when someone approached me. I looked at him wearing my bitch face, He looked like a womanizer.

"Wants some drink?" he asked, he also sat next to me. I rolled my eyes at him.

"Not interested." I said, he laughed because of what I said. I was so bored.

he's smiling at me, he has thick eyebrows, long eyelashes, a pointed nose, and his eyes is not blue and it's not normal gray either, it's Sterling Gray.pinkish lips his face is perfect, I'm jealous.

He chuckled, oh god! Why did you make such a handsome creature!? I looked at him head to toe. He's wearing a pants and a plain black t-shirt. He looked so simple but at the same time expensive. But he really has a womanizer look.

“Hmm…” he said and laughed softly. "Wow you're stunning."

he compliments me, he's looking at me, head to toe. He moves his head slowly, as if he is memorizing every part of my face. His gaze stopped on my face, I also saw his adams apple moving up and down.

'he looks so hot!'

I wonder if he has a girlfriend, maybe not. What kind of boyfriend would go to the bar and offer a drink to a beautiful woman like me?!

"Staring is rude and." He suddenly said, reason for me to look away from him. "You looked miserable."

I looked at him because of what he said and suddenly laughed, me !? Miserable !? Gosh did he freaking look in the mirror before coming here and said that thing to me? He looks more miserable than me, with the simplicity of his clothes, it seems like he came here all of a sudden and he really didn't prepare because of his messy hair. But that's made him looked hotter. He looks so hot, I think I'm sweating.

"You’re handsome." I said and looked away, he was stunned and seemed to be processing what I said. I heard his chuckle that made me smile a little, is that an Achievement?

"You're honest, I like honest women."

“So you like me?”

I asked a serious question but I also wanted to laugh when I saw him stopped drinking. He seemed surprised by what I said, he was very surprised. Isn't he used to be with a straight forward women?

He looked at me in awe, after that he smiled at me. It seems like he is so amazed to me, I feel like I'm the smartest person in the world.

He smiled as he put the shot glass to the counter and stared at me, he slowly leaned his face closer to mine so I was a little nervous. His face was getting closer and closer and it seemed like it was too slow, I closed my eyes thinking that he would kiss me but I was wrong.

"Maybe." He whispered softly in my ear "and don't close your eyes, I'm not going to kiss you" he said laughing.

I immediately opened my eyes in embarrassment, he laughed and removed his face from my ear and looked at me. I am now his happy pill.

Although I was embarrassed, I took courage, I didn't want to look stupid on my birthday. I slowly raised my hand and placed my index finger on his lips.

I gently caressed it, from his lips to his cheek. I slowly slapped his cheek three times, He just stares at me and lets me do what I want with his face.

"I wonder what your lips taste like." I told him using my flirty voice.

He still didn't move and he looked like he was just a statue there. I don’t know where I get my courage to say those things.

Yes, I've had various flings but they all made the first move and I didn't. Looks like vodka hit me.

He smirked "I wonder what your body tastes like." He mimicked me.

I looked at him, I saw him looking at my face, down to my neck and his gaze stopped on my breast. I could see the lust in his eyes.

Instead of being distracted by the way he stared at me, I wanted more to flirt with him. I stood up ams gently held his face down to his shoulder. I put my face close to his ear.

"Wanna give it a try?" I asked him seductively.

He didn't answer but he also stood up from his seat, so we were now in the middle of two Bar stools, making his body much closer to mine.

I can feel my breast pressing his chest. He wraps his left arm around my waist to pull me closer to his body, While his right hand is gently holding my hair, down to my face, until his hand stops on my neck. I could also feel his left hand slowly touching my Ass.

I looked around because maybe someone could see what his nimble hands were doing, it's a good thing that the people here have their own world.

"But not here" I told him that made him laughed.

“I know”

He removed his hand on me and took the wallet out of his pocket, he took out a few money and put it on the counter.

He grabbed my hand and suddenly pulled me out.

We are now in his car, he is driving and I don't know where we are going. I thought we were going straight to the hotel but we already passed a lot of hotel.

He was running too fast as if he has important thing to do. I was just sitting and staring at the lights of the building we were passing, I was still trying to glance at the sky but I was having a hard time to do so.

For me, it's better to look at the sky every night. Every morning most people are blind in different ways, we become blind to the truth, love and in our own being. It is as if the sun's rays are blinding us.

The car stopped at a house, it's a bungalow type of house. He got out of the car and opened the door for me . When i got down, we immediately went inside.

As we went inside I saw the beautiful design of the house, it’s so clean and bright. It was very simple to look at but very beautiful to the eye.

“So What are we going to try? ” He asked like an innocent child, I just gave him a very flirty smile.
