Chapter 6 I can do it

Chapter 6

She's in the bar right now, but she was still occupied. Max leaves again co'z Angela was already here at naiinis siya habang inuulit na binabasa ang message nito.

Max

(Au, I have to meet Angela she's here to visit and she's going to stay at the mansion for the meantime)

At wala siyang planong umuwi nang bahay ngayon.

Nagpapanggap lang si Angela yun ang alam niya she hates her, wala siyang pakialam if Max told her na parang kapatid na nito si Angela she was jealous of her she's not going home.

She took her alcohol at tinungga.

"And he was expecting me to be there with them?!

Naiinis na nilapag niya ang baso sa mesa dahilan para mapabaling ang mga kasama niya sa kanya.

" Hey, Au are you ok? "

Bumaling sakanya si Winston habang natatawa

" She has her own problem"

Natatawa sagot naman ni Milly kay Winston.

But someone tapped her shoulder at pagbaling niya it was Ace, he look gloomy he really do love his ex girlfriend.

" Hey, bro you're here"sagot ni Winston at naupo sa tabi niya si Ace.

He look miserable.

Naiisip niya si Max dati when Angel was gone when she first saw him mukhang mas magaling lang magdala si Ace he looked so down ngunit nakakangiti ito at nakikisama unlike Max before.

She held Ace in his arms.

"Are you ok..?"

Ace force a smile halata parin ang sakit dito, but instead of replying Ace took the bottle of whiskey at nagsalin sa baso and drink from it

"It's so hard, Aurora I didn't know I-I mean I take her for granted akala ko mamahalin niya ako at sakin lang siya, no matter what I did.. but she told me she's tired.. she's tired of me., and now she's gone at.. at nagsisisi ako.."

Nangilid ang luha ni Ace and she gently tapped his back.

"Oh, Ace.. it's fine.. makaka move on karin--"

"No I can't, Milly I love her so much.."

Kita niya ang pagkagat labi ni Milly who also likes Ace.

At biglang tumayo ito at nag excuse nagkatinginan nalang sila ni Winston at Cheska.

Cheska stood up and follow Milly while she was left with the two men pagbalik ni Milly her eyes were swollen.

At hindi ito kumikibo but Milly kept on looking at Ace who was drinking himself ngunit habang lumalalim ang gabi they all became intoxicated.

Her phone kept on ringing tumatawag si Max ngunit wala siyang pakialam ngayon.

He is with Angela ,she feels paranoid hindi niya alam kung anong ginagawa ni Max ngayon of course kung nandon na sa mansyon si Angela he must entertain her,natawa siya nang pagak nanikip ang dibdib niya she hates that idea that Max was with Angela now,kaya magpapakasaya siya hanggang makalimutan niya si Max she has too uuwi din siya sa apartment niya ngayon.

Her phone didn't stop ringing.

"Aren't you going to answer your phone?"

Sita ni Cheska sakanya she sigh

"Yes, Au kanina pa yan tumutunog"

Sabat din ni Milly she sighed nang tumigil sa pagtunog ang cell phone niya kaya naman kinuha niya iyon at makitang tadtad na nang message at miscalls from Max.

Her phone rang again and this time ay sinagot na niya ito, baka magpunta si Max oras na hindi sagutin niya ang tawag.

"Why?"

Bungad niya.

("The hell Aurora, nasa bar kana naman?! Go home now!")

Utos nito and she stiff this isn't she expects akala niya ay tatanungin siya ni Max kung nasaang bar siya at ito mismo ang susundo sakanya.

"No.."

Sagot niya nang mahimasmasan sa naisip

("No? D*mnit go home now--")

"Then fetch me"

She responded nonchalantly

("I.. I can't Aurora, my jet lag si Angela and I can't just leave her--")

" Then this conversation is done Max,"

(" Stop being immature Aurora go home! ")

Ngunit tumawa kang siya nang pagak.

" I will just wait for you here Max"

She can hear his frustrated sigh sa kabilang linya.

(" Ipapasundo kita kay Lance")

Nakuyom niya ang kamao, nagpupuyos ang damdamin niya ngayon he will just let her be with other men dahil lang kay Angela.

"I don't need Lance, I don't need another man Max, I need you now if you're choosing Angela over me then, fine I can choose my own man,you don't have to bother,

brother, baka bukas nalang ako uuwi"

Mapait niyang sabi she wanted him to choose at kung mas pipiliin nito si Angela ay wala na siyang pakialam ngayong gabi at magpapakasaya nalang siya

" So goodbye brother --"

(" Do'n you ever think about it Aurora I'm warning you! ")

" Aurora let's dance.! ''

It was Ace and he was already intoxicated...

"Ace! You're drunk makakasayaw kapaba?"

She held his arms nang muntik na itong matumba but Ace chuckled.

("Aurora! Aurora!")

"Yeah! Of course please,, I just wanted to leaned on you, hehe"

Nakaramdam siya nang awa dito.

"Ok, ok " hinawakan niya si Ace at pinaupo sa tabi niya because he was so drunk at siguradong hindi na nito kaya pang magsayaw.

("Aurora!")

She heard Max voice at napailing nalang siya..

"Ok, Max later. "

Paalam niya and she ended the call.

Nag aalala siya kay Ace, he was like a brother to her at kahit minsan ay hindi siya nito binastos kaya mas magaan ang loob niya dito and seeing him like this makes her heart breaks.

Samantalang si Milly ay lasing narin.

Sumandal si Ace sa balikat niya.

" Milly.. "

Agaw niya sa atensyon ni Milly na tila nagulat nang makita si Ace na halos nakatulog na.

" W-what..? "

Maang na tanong ni Milly.

" Come here! "

Tumayo naman si Milly at naupo sa gilid ni Ace she held Ace head at pinatong niya sa balikat ni Milly.

" Aurora! He will be mad if he knows --"

" He was drunk Milly, "

" He wanted to lean on you not me"

" I need to go to the bathroom"

Pagdadahilan niya at tumayo siya ngunit umungol si Ace at maya-maya'y niyakap si Milly kita niya ang paglaki nang mga mata ni Milly,at natawa siya sa reaksyon ni Milly she nodded and Milly grin para pumunta nang banyo and when she took her bag para i check ang cellphone ay wala na ulit tawag o message si Max.

Natawa siya nang pagak.

She was drunk at naiiyak siyang isipin na wala nang planong pumunta si Max dahil kay Angela.

"So he already choose.."

Mapakla siyang natawa but she can't help her tears from falling she took a tissue on her bag at pinunas ang mga mata.

She goes out the bathroom and when she glanced at their table Milly and Ace was still at their table at si Cheska at Winston ay nagsasayaw.

Milly asked her na iuwi nila si Ace pero hindi niya alam ang apartment ni Ace kaya nagpaalam sila kay Cheska at Winston.

Milly can't bring Ace to her apartment dahil nandon din ang kapatid nito kaya wala silang choice kundi dalhin si Ace sa hotel room.

"D*mn.. Ace you're so heavy!"

Reklamo niya dahil halos wala nang malay si Ace habang naka akbay sa kanila ni Milly ngunit nang lingunin niya si Milly she looks determine.

She has her heartbreaks now but she wanted to help Ace.

Pagdating sa tapat nang room ay siya ang nag swipe nang card sa pinto at nang bumukas ay nahirapan pa silang pasukin ang loob dahil sa tatlo sila ngunit she felt tired at pinagpapawisan na siya.

Binitawan niya si Ace at si Milly ang naghiga kay Ace sa kama, hindi na niya maiwasang hubarin ang jacket na suot niya.

"Gosh Ace! Nakakapagod !"

She was catching her breath.

" What to do next Au? "

Napalingon siya kay Milly at natawa siya kagaya niya Milly look haggard sa pagod sa pag alalay kay Ace but something in Milly makes her smile.

" Milly please take care of him, I still needs to go home"

"You mean you're not going to stay until he wakes up?! What if magising siya at ako ang makita niya? He will be mad"

Tila hindi makapaniwalang tanong ni Milly at natawa naman siya dito

" Mil, Lasing lang si Ace but I'm sure he will appreciate what you've done when he wakes up"

"Are-Are you sure?"

"Of course, Ace was nice sabi ko nga sayo I know him since college"

"Oh, ok . Then.. ano bang gagawin ko?"

"Haha ok, let's removed his clothes at pagkatapos take a towel at punasan mo siya, and I will leave him to you"

Kita niya ang paglunok nito, but Milly nodded with full of determination.

"Ok let's do it!"

Tinulungan niya si Milly na tanggalan nang t-shirt si Ace, but Milly do almost of the job, at pagkatapos ay nagpunta ito sa banyo para sa bimpo na ihihilamos kay Ace.

But someone knocked at the door at nagtataka siyang dahil sunod-sunod ang katok, hindi naman siguro ganito ang mga bellboy, she walked towards the door ngunit pagbukas niya ay bumungad si Max, he looked enraged he scanned her body naka sleeveless nalang siya at basa pa siya nang pawis.

"M-Max? Why are you --"

But Max grabbed her arms and shove her at napatitig ito sa kama and she soon realized the situation at nanlalaki ang mata niya.

Max eyes was on fire at nakuyom nito ang kamao.

"I will going to kill this motherf*cker..!" He groans at nakaramdam siya nang takot at agad itong pinigilan nang lampasan siya nito

"Max! Wait! Let me explain!"

Ngunit tuloy-tuloy si Max, but Milly got out of the bathroom at nagulat nang makita si Max.

"Max.. why are.."

Max stopped and frown napatingin ito sa bimpo at planganita na dala ni Milly he glanced at her questionably.

"Aurora explain"

"Yeah, dito namin siya dinala because we didn't know where he lives, and I'm going to leave before you came"

She responded flatly.

Milly start to explain with her at tila nahimasmasan si Max, Ace groans at tumagilid ito nang higa dahilan para mapabaling sila dito.

Max sighed and faced Milly.

"So Milly, take care of him aalis na kami ni Aurora"

Paalam nito kay Milly, and Milly just nodded Max grabbed her wrist at pulled her out of that hotel room hanggang makalabas na sila sa hotel.

Ngunit nang makarating sila sa parking ay inagaw niya ang kamay niya sa pagkakahawak dito na mukhang hindi napaghandaan ni Max at marahas na napalingon ito sakanya.

"How did you find me?"

Max chuckled sarcastically.

"I have so many ways to find you Aurora"

Makahulugang sabi nito and her eyes narrowed.

But Max pinched her face.

"You're not aware, of what I feel when I saw you enter that hotel Aurora"

Nagsalubong ang kilay nito and soon his expression changed and he slightly smiled.

"I'm going to kill that b*stard--"

But she cover his mouth to stop him from talking ngunit tinanggal lang ni Max ang kamay niya and Max stares at her intently.

"You're not going out with another man Aurora, tandaan mo yan"

May pagbabantang sabi nito but she just chuckled hindi niya maitago ang kasiyahan embes na sumagot at pinalibot ang kamay sa batok ni Max, and Max look surprised.

" I'm not going to go out with other men Max,--"

" Hey, you're drunk let's go home--"

"Go home? I'm not going back home Max, lalo na nandon si Angel..la, so I'm going to my apartment"

Binitawan niya ito and stared at him intently gusto niyang makita ang magiging reaksyon nito but his reaction was blank.

Gusto niyang marinig dito na paaalisin nito si Angela and he will still chose her like he does ngayon.

But Max shook his head.

"No Au, let's go home you're staying there with me and Angela, kadarating niya lang ngayon and what's with your attitude?"

"Really? May kasalanan ba ako? I don't want to be with someone who's taking you away from me Max, I'm a trouble maker remember? And I can't promise na hindi ko siya papatulan if ever"

"Au, Angela is a nice woman makakasundo mo siya, like I did"

"No, whatever you say Max, hindi aki uuwi doon, go home I can go back to my apartment on my own --"

"Stop testing my patience Aurora,"

" I will at mauubos talaga ang pasensiya mo Max pag pinilit mo"

But Max held her wrist and pulled her mahigpit ang hawak nito sa pulsuhan niya, she tried to protest and pulled her hands ngunit kinaladkad na siya nito hanggang makasakay sa sasakyan nito

" Max! Let me go! "

" No I won't Aurora"

" Max--let go! "

Ngunit nabuksan nito ang pinto nang sasakyan nito at agad siyang isinalya sa loob sinarhan ang pinto at lumigid.

Pagkapasok ay agad nitong pinsibad ang sasakyan while she was on the other side habang nakasimangot hindi pwedeng makasama niya si Angela hindi siya papayag.

Isa lang sa kanila ang dapat mag stay.

Si Angela o siya, at kung mas pipiliin ito ni Max ay mapipilitan siyang gumawa nang paraan para mamili si Max.

Their car stop at the mansion's garage and when she heard the door click open ay agad niyang hinawakan ang pinto but Max was faster than her bago pa siya makalabas ay agad nitong naagapan ang braso niya.

"I know what you're thinking Aurora, so beat me"

He spits sarcastically she tried to pulled her hands ngunit mas malakas ito her patience is running out because of him.

She then face him and smirk dahilan para magsalubong ang kilay ni Max but in a second she grabbed his collar and pull him and crashed her lips on him, she can feel how Max stiffed for a moment, she tried to deepened her kiss.

But she felt drawn by her own kiss, she didn't know how basta she sucks lis lips and just like before Max didn't respond to her kiss kaya naman binitawan niya ito and push him he was still dumbfounded na mukhang hindi parin nag sink in sa utak ang ginawa niya.

It was so embarrassing until this time Max, didn't see her as a woman.

'.. I hate you Max I'm done!. '

She held the door at nagmamadaling lumabas.

"Aurora!"

She heard him call for her name but she just ignored him aalis na siya sa bahay na ito and this is the last time magpapakalayo-layo muna siya kay Max.

'.. my situation is tiring!.. '

She march hanggang sa pathway papunta sa gate, but someone grabbed her arms.

",get off Max! I hate you! I don't want to see you ever again!"

She yelled at him galit na galit siya dito but instead of replying Max encircled his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.

She feels like her heart stop beating nang makitang titig na titig si Max sakanya.

"No one, teach you how to kiss until now..,"

And Max chuckled at nakaramdam siya nang insulto sa sinabi nito she tried to push him.

"Yeah I'm aware Max,"

Patuya niyang sagot dito that makes him smiles widely.

"Let me go now Max"

Malamig niyang tugon dito ngunit lalo lang humigpit ang yakap nito sakanya.

"And where do you think you're going hm, baby girl?"

"Stop calling me babygirl Max! Let me go, I'm going back at the bar, and I will look for someone who can teach me how to kiss and have s*x"

Patuya niyang sagot dito hindi na niya maiwasang nagngit-ngit lako na nang tumawa lang ito.

"Y-you!!"

Nagpupuyos niyang sabi but Max cupped her jaw.

"You don't have to go back to that bar, I can do it.."

He whispered sexily while licking his lips.

"You what?!"

Ngunit nagulat siya nang bigla itong yumuko but in a second her body lift in the air, at walang pakundangang pinatong siya ni Max sa balikat nito.

"M-Max! Put me down!"

"Shh..! Lower your voice you're not planning on waking them all.. right? "

She knows Max was just joking, sa sinabi nito ng she was so sure of it
