There are already a lot of people here at the bar. All of them is drinking and they're having fun with their partners.
"Hey babe, happy birthday." One of my girls greeted me then she give me a smack kiss. She also give me a gift.
"Thank you." I said then I wink at her.
He shuddered.
Here's what I've been waiting for.
Andrea.
Her face was so bad when she entered the bar. It's very noisy inside. I really played the music loud for her.
"Here." She said and threw me the gift she was holding. She really threw it away and she didn't even give it to me with a manner way.
"I didn't expect this but thanks." I said with a sarcastic voice.
"It's not from me. It's from Andrei. He wants me to give you that because he can't go today."
Why did I expect something from her?
"Please say thank you to him for me." I said.
"Why don't you say it yourself?" She said rudely.
"Can't you just tell him?" I asked.
"Call him and say thank you. Don't order me around. You have a phone and a mouth. Tell him yourself and don't boss me around" She said. "Where's Lexa?"
She's so irritated because of the noise. This is what I expect. She looked around and she looked for Lexa.
"Just find them. I don't know where they are And most of all I'm not a person that you should asked for missing people."
"Are they missing? Not really tss. I can't just find them inside here. They're not missing." She rolled her eyes at me then she walked away.
Be annoyed Andrea. You'll make me happy in that way. That can only be your gift to me. That's the gift that I want.
I followed her gaze as she walked and looked for Tristan. They are on the rooftop I guess. I didn't just say that to Andrea because I wanted to make it difficult for her.
Andrea
Where is Lexa? I've been looking for those since I get here but I can't find them.
Sh*t!
I've been so irritated ever since I enter this bar.
The sounds are very loud. The noise in this bar is exceptional. This is the only bar that I've been through that has this so loud noise.
I've only been to a bar twice and it's not that noisy. There are also a lot of people here. He seems to have invited all the students to the school.
There were people dancing and drinking. You will also see someone kissing here and there. They didn't even hide so people wouldn't see them.
I approached the DJ who was arranging the music to asked him a favor.
"CAN YOU WEAKEN THE SOUND A LITTLE ?!" I asked out loud.
I shout because we can't understand each other if I just use my normal voice.
"I CAN'T, THE BIRTHDAY CELEBRANT IS THE ONE WHO ORDERED TO INCREASE THE VOLUME!" He replied.
The ladder was the one who asked for this. He really wants me to be irritated. Let's be patient Alistair but I won't let you be happy even if it's your birthday today.
“What ?!” “Shout of the woman I collided with. I'm the one who got spilled by her drink but she's still have the gut to be mad at me? I can't believe this woman.
I just ignored it and just kept walking. Maybe I'll get into a fight here if I say something to that freak.
It's irritating tonight. Why do I have to go here? I walk while wiping the t-shirt I’m wearing. Is it the amount of alcohol that can be thrown at me? It stinks! I smell wine in my ass. I can't drive now because I saw a checkpoint earlier on my way here.
It may be difficult for me to cope. Why does it have to be alcohol? It should have been juice or anything not just alcohol.
Damn!
Alistair
I don't know why do I have to be here. I should be on the bar with my girls. They are the ones who thought of having a party at the hotel, they should be the ones to take care of it.
I still want to see Andrea's annoyed face all night while having my girls around me.
"Mom, how long do I have to be here?" I asked my mom.
I've been here for almost 50 minutes. It's almost 9 pm but I'm still here.
"Just wait a little longer." Mom said.
"'Just wait a little longer' You've been saying that for almost 18 times, mom"
"Because you've been asking that question for almost 18 times."
Aishh!
"Oh Mr. Muños, how have you been?" Mom greeted the old man who just came in.
"Fine, Happy birthday son."
I just give him a bored look and leave. I just talk to dad. Dad will let me leave because it's my birthday.
"Hey dad."
"Hey son, what's wrong?" My dad asks.
I gave him a bored look. I roam my eyes around. I hope he understands what I mean by this.
"Can I go now? I should be enjoying my birthday, right? But look at this, this is not fun. It's boring here. I should be with my friends on the bar." My complaint.
He laughed a little and tap my shoulder.
"Have fun with your friends."
"Thanks dad." I said then I leave.
Great idea really that dad I talked to. I've been stuck there for 1 hour. I wasted 1 hour for nothing.
I could hear the music from the inside to the outside of the bar.
Andrea's face could definitely not be painted anymore. As I was walking down the hallway into the bar something suddenly bumped to me.
WTF?
We were out of balance and fell down. I feel something soft on my lips. What the? It's her lips.
Andrea Damn it! Annoying! "I'm going!" I say goodbye before leaving the house. Damn. It's so early but there's a traffic already. You can even hear car horns now. This damn people, they see that there's a traffic and they're still horning. They're just making noise. The cars won't move even if they horn. Tss. "Good morning class." Our teacher greeted us so we stood up to greet him as well. "Get your books and open it on page 168. Answer the activity no. 3 copy and answer. No one will come out of you and answer quietly. When I find out that someone came out and yelled, you'll be zero in every quiz. Do you all understand? " "Yes, sir." Everyone's answer. I pulled out my book and started answering. We were all silent while answering. Sir Vasco will really give us a zero when he threatens me like that. Sir Vasco is our English teacher. He was kind but strict.&nbs
We left the school together and went to the abandoned building, they say. There is a place like this here near our school that I don't notice every time I go in. It is on the left side of the school. The place is dark and smelly. The smell stinks. Broken rocks and irons were scattered. We took out our phones to serve as our lights. "Moonlight!" "Andrea!" "Andrea!" "Moonlight!" We called her again and again but no one answered us. I thought of just calling her again to make our search easier. We hear the ring of a phone to our left and there also comes a little light. We approached the source of the sound and there we saw Andrea. She was unconsciously sitting on the cold cement. Her head was down and his hands and feet were tied. "Andrea! Andrea!" Raia and Alexa try to wake him up but she doesn't respond. Asher touched
Jake Is this really a woman? Her punches are so strong. "You're a jerk, you're really sensual. You can see me wearing make-up even if it's not a pageant. And you're teasing you every day, aren't you still satisfied?" "When and how can I see you with make-up on, aber? You really don't want that." "At graduation." "Really? You're going to put on make-up at graduation?" I can't believe this. Of all things, make-up is the most disliked by temper tantrum. "Even if I don't want to, I'm sure Shan will force me. Tss." Only Shan can put make-up to her. "Why did you take me with your foolishness, Jake?" Crimson asked. "You didn't say anything at the teacher before, why are you telling me that now?" "I didn't say anything earlier because I knew my moaning had no destination. I'll just waste my saliva for nothing" He replied. "Yo
Andrea "HAHAHA did you see that, Andrea? She's really annoyed." Raia said laughing. These two are really crazy. They pissed Blaine off. Blaine, on the other hand, was pissed off. You can see that she is insulted on her face. Who wouldn't be offended by what these two said? "Yeah, the look in her face is really funny." Lexa said. "Crazy girls." I said. "I just don't know what will happen to you if she targeted you." I told them. The two did not scared. They still continue to laugh. I think they are crazy. No, let me rephrase it. They are really crazy. "She can't touch us. You know that we are the daughters of two big companies. She can't lay a finger on us." Lexa's confident answer. It is difficult to resist such rich people. You'll maybe died tomorrow or the other day. No one knows your destiny if you touch such rich people. "She can't fight face to face so she's kidnapping you.
Andrea Today is the pageant day. They were so excited to see me on stage rampaging. This is why I strive for practice even though it is hard I endured it for them. Now, I just saw them so happy again. It's been so long since I last saw them this happy. The smile on their faces doesn't fade. They were all excited and can't wait to see me on stage. My sacrifices and tired days aren't wasted. "Are you ready?" Mom asked me. I gave her a confident smile before answering. "I'm so ready." I answered. "Let's go!" Andrei said cheerfully. In the van we rode to school. Alexa and the other were already there when we arrived. Everything that I will use for the pageant is also ready. As I expected Shan was my make-up artist. Ladder's sister is the hairstylist. She offered to be my hairstylist so I didn't refused. Shan told her about the pageant and she offered me to be my hairstylist.
Alistair That girl is really proud of herself. She likes her personality because everyone hates it. That girl was really weird. Who would like that kind of thing? She should change it because everyone hates it. She shouldn't be proud of it. The same question has been asked to me. "My intelligence." I answered. "Why?" The judge asked. "I won't be fooled by anyone because I have it." I answered. The judges nodded. I think they are satisfied on my answer. They are now deciding the winner. I don't care if I win or not. I'll consider this as one of my experience in my high school life. This is the first time that I did this kind of thing. Modeling, reciting a saying and dancing in front of the crowd. I didn't even imagine that I'll be able to do this. And I won't do this again. This is tiring and this is just a waste of time. I will never ever do this again.&nbs
James Hindi ko alam kung bakit ayaw ni Blaine dito kay Smith eh. Mukhang mabait naman siya na medyo... medyo sira ulo. Medyo lang naman. Ayaw ko na sana na kalabanin si Smith kaso nilakihan ni Blaine 'yung bayad sa 'kin eh. Wala tuloy akong nagawa. Kailangan ko ring kumita ng pera. Nakita namin kung pa'nong tinulungan ni Smith ang isang bata. Marunong din pala 'tong ngumiti tsk. Humanap kami ng magandang tiyempo bago bumaba ng sasakyan. Kinuha ko ang dos por dos na dala ko bago bumaba. Hindi ko kaya kung gagamitan ko lang ng panyong may pampatulog si Smith. Ginawa ko na 'yun dati noong nakaraan pero nakalaban siya. Nakatalikod siya sa 'min habang sumasakay siya sa 'min kaya nagkaroon kami ng pagkakataon upang lapitan siya. Dahan dahan kaming naglakad para hindi siya makahalata. Bumwelo ako bago ihampas sa kaniya ang
Andrei "Nandito na 'ko." Sabay sabay kaming lumapit sa kaniya nung marinig namin siya. "Anak." Tawag sa kaniya ni mama saka siya niyakap. Naguguluhan siya dahil sa biglang pagyakap sa kaniya ni mama pero kahit na ganun ay niyakap din niya ito pabalik. "Bakit?" Takang tanong niya. Humiwalay sa yakap si mama saka siya pinaghahampas sa balikat. Bagay lang sa kaniya 'yun. Halos mamatay matay kami sa pag-aalala dito. "Ahh ahh ahh 'ma, sandali." Daing niya. Pilit niyang sinasangga ang mga palo ni mama pero hindi niya magawa. Nag-iingat kasi siya dahil baka masaktan niya ito. "Bata ka. Kung sa'n sa'n ka nagpupupunta. Hindi ka man lang nagpapaalam." Saad ni mama habang patuloy na hinahampas si ate. "'Ma, tama na." Inawat na ni kuya Andrew si mama kasi hindi titigil 'yan
Andrea"Oh, Moonlight. Kamusta?" Bati ni Ash."Ayus naman." Sagot ko.We do a fist bump and hug each other afterwards. Ganito kami magbatian, eh.Siya ang nakaisip ng kalokohan na 'to. Cool daw sabi niya eh alam ko namang tyansing lang siya, tss."Napadalaw ka yata?""Bakit kasi hindi ka pumasok?" Asar na tanong ko.Hindi sana ako pupunta dito sa bahay nila kung pumasok lang siya."Si Blaine kasi. Aalis sila mamaya kasama ang lolo at lola niya. Pupunta daw ng States kaya sinusulit namin ang araw hanggang tanghali." Sagot niya.Aalis din sila Blaine. Sana naman ay hindi ko kasabay sa eroplano 'yon. Baka magkaaway pa kami dahil nagpunta 'ko dito. Ayaw mag eskandalo sa loob ng eroplano."Bakit ka nga napadaan?" Tanong niya pa."Magpapaalam sana ako. Aalis na din kami mamaya,
AndreaAnniversary namin ni hagdan ngayon. Gusto niya na mag-celebrate kami kaya nagpaalam ako sa trabaho ko na hindi ako makakapasok ngayon.Pinagbigyan ko na si hagdan sa gusto niya dahil hindi na namin na ce-celebrate ang monthsary namin dahil busy ako sa trabaho.Pangbawi ko na rin sa kaniya dahil wala akong oras na naibibigay sa kaniya."Hindi ganiyan." Natatawang aniya."Pa'no ba?" Tanong ko.Naglakagay kasi kami ng icing sa cake na binake niya. Bonding na naming dalawa ito kaya imbes na bumili ng cake ay nagbake nalang siya.Ako ang nakatalaga sa decorations kaso hindi naman ako artistic kaya hindi ko alam kung pa'no ba gagawing decor dito."Ganito oh." Kinuha niya sa akin ang icing.Siya na ang naglagay ng icing sa cake dahil hindi ko talaga alam kung pa'no. Hirap ng walang alam sa arts kung 'di ma
AndreaBinabantayan ko si papa habang si mama ay naghahanap daw ng pagkakakitaan. Kailanman ay hindi ko naisip na aabot kami sa puntong 'to na maging si mama ay maghahanap ng trabaho.Masyado na kaming nagigipit. Hindi ko na alam kung pa'no pa kami aahon. Hindi ko na alam kung saan pa ako kukuha ng lakas ngayon.Halos wala na ngang pahinga si mama. Naaawa na ako sa kaniya. Wala akong magawa kung 'di ang maawa nalang.Bakit kasi ganito? Bakit kailangan na umabot sa ganito?Ano bang ginawa ko at pati pamilya ko dinamay nila? Laban ay laban. Bakit kapag natalo sila ay pamilya ko ang pinuntirya nila?"'Pa?" Napatayo ako sa kinauupuan ko dahil bigla nalang nag seizure si papa. "'Pa!""Nurse!" Pagtawag ko sa nurse."Anong nangyayari?" Tanong ng isang bantay."Tumawag kayo ng doctor! Bilis!" Utos ko.
ChanoHiling ni Queen na siya na ang lalaban sa lahat. Ewan nga lang namin kung ano ang nangyari at parang mainit ang ulo niya.Habang nag eensayo siya dito sa gym sa bahay nila Xander ay ang lakas ng pagkakatira niya sa lahat.Lahat ng suntok at sipa niya sa punching bag ay malalakas lahat. Parang may pinaghuhugutan siya ng galit."Ayus lang kaya si Queen?" Tanong ni Xander sa akin."Malay ko ba. May problema yata." Sagot ko.Alam naman namin na may problema talaga siya pero parang nadagdagan pa. Hindi naman kasi siya ganiyan, eh.Ano kayang nangyari sa kaniya at bigla siyang nagkaganiyan? May nangyari kaya kanina sa bahay ng mga Crimson o sa gymnasium?"Baka masira niya 'yung punching bag sa lakas ng pag atake niya." Bulong ni Xander sa akin kaya natawa ako."Kaya mo namang palitan 'yan at sa inyo naman
Andrea"'Ma, kamusta na si papa?" Tanong ko kay mama pagkabalik niya galing ospital.Hindi pa rin kasi nagigising si papa hanggang ngayon at nasa ICU pa rin. Sana nga ay magising na siya ngayon.Wala akong pake sa bills ng ospital ang kailangan ko ay magising si papa. Kahit na gaanong kalaki pa ang bayaran namin."Tulog pa rin, 'nak." Bakas ang lungkot sa boses ni mama habang sinasabi iyon.Hindi ko naman siya masisisi dahil asawa niya iyon. Mas matagal niyang kasama si papa kesa sa amin.Mas nahihirapan si mama kesa sa aming mga anak nila. Alam ko 'yon. Kaya wala akong magawa kung 'di ang yakapin nalang siya."Magiging okay din ang lahat, 'ma."Alam kong tinatatagan lang ni mama ang loob niya para sa amin. Gabi gabi kong naririnig si mama na nanalangin at umiiyak.Na trauma din siya sa nangyari sa kaniya
Alistair"They're here." Blake said looking at the entrance of the gymnasium.Napangiti ako ng makita ang tinutukoy niya. Sila Andrea kasama sila Lexa at Raia."Hi, girsl!" Bati ng teammates ko sa kanila.Kumaway sila Raia at Lexa samantalang si Andrea naman ay ngumiti lang ng bahagya sa kanila."How are you feeling?" I asked."Ayus lang." She replied and smiled at me."Pwedeng akin nalang 'yung isa?" Pabirong sabi ng isa sa mga teammates ko habang nakatingin kay Andrea ng nakangiti.Mabilis kong inilagay si Andrea sa gilid ko saka siya sinamaan ng tingin."Who are you smiling at?" Tanong ko sa kaniya."Syota mo ba 'yan?""Yeah. So get off your from her if you don't want me to take it out from you.""Brutal mo, dre."Nagtawanan lang kami d
AndreaNakapagbayad na sila sa ginawa nila sa pamilya ko. Pero hindi pa rin nawawala ang galit sa puso ko.Hanggang ngayon kasi ay hindi pa nagigising ang papa ko. Comatose pa rin siya at walang kasiguraduhan kung mabubuhay pa siya.Walang kasiguraduhan kung magigising pa ba siya. Walang kasiguraduhan ang lahat.Maaga akong umalis ng bahay namin. Hindi na ako kumain at dumeretso ako sa ospital para bantayan si papa.Nakalabas na din sila mama ng ospital kahapon at pinagpahinga muna namin siya sa bahay.Pagdating ko sa ospital ay dumeretso agad ako sa ICU kung nasa'n si papa."'Pa, gising na. Haba na ng tulog mo, eh. Baka naman gusto mo ng gumising. Uso 'yon pa." Saad ko. Hindi ko na naman tuloy napigilan ang mga luha ko na tumulo.Naaawa ako kay papa dahil hindi na siya humihinga sa sarili niya. Hindi na niya kayang huming
AndrelloDan Antonio. 'Yan ang pangalan ng g*gong sumira ng break ng sasakyan nila mama kaya naaksidente sila at namatay si lola.Sa t'wing naiisip ko si lola ay lalong umiinit ang dugo ko sa lalaking 'yon at nadagdagan ang galit ko.Sa isang warehouse daw naglalagi ang g*gong 'yon ngayon dahil napalayas siya sa bahay nila.Wala daw kasing ibang inatupag kung 'di ang maglakwatcha. Isang lumang warehouse na 'tong pinaglalagian niya. Kaunting panahon nalang siguro ay sira na 'to.As expected ay nandito siya ngayon at naninigarilyo. May alak din sa mesa niya pero walang baso. Tinutungga lang niya ang alak mula sa bote nito."Kamusta, kaibigan?" Saad niya ng mapansin ang presensya ko. "Ano ang maipaglilingkod ko sa iyo?"Tumungga muna siya ng alak at humithit ng sigarilyo bago tumayo at nakangising tumingin sa akin."Bibigyan
Andrea"Kung hayop ako, ano ka pa? Demonyong umahon mula sa impyerno?""'Wag na 'wag mong sasaktan ang pamilya ko kung ayaw mong saktan ko din ang kapatid mo." Mariing banta niya."Sino sa mga kapatid ko ang sasaktan mo?""'Yung bunso mong kapatid.""Ahh..." Kunwaring natatakot na sabi ko saka tumayo sa kina-uupuan ko."Hindi mo magagalaw 'yon dahil galit na galit din siya gaya ko. Wala kayong magagawa sa kaniya dahil mas magaling pa siya kesa sa inyo. At alam mo ba kung bakit hindi sumasagot ang mga co-leaders mo? Dahil ginagawa din niya kung ano ngayon ang ginagawa ko."Nanggigigil siyang tumingin sa 'kin. Matalim niya akong tinignan kaya sinamaan ko siya ng tingin."Dahil sa inyo, namatay ang lola ko. Dahil sa inyo, nanganib ang buhay ng mama at Tita ko. Dahil sa inyo, comatose ang papa ko. Dahil sa inyong mga g*go kayo
