When feelings are too hard to explain, people find solace in alcohol. But will it be enough to drown out all the thoughts you have for someone?
Will it be enough to define the peculiar beating of your heart for that someone who's brain beats opposite of how your heart does?
After shift, magkasabay na kami ni Travis na naghintay kina Joanne. There were no end of shift huddles dahil na rin sa may lakad din sina Sari.

Confusion sucks the life out of all of us. It gives us something to think about. Something to ponder on.But when it's about a certain attraction you have for someone, should it be taken differently? Or should you just let it go and pretend that things are just the same as they will always be?I decided to take Joanne home along with her flat mate na hindi pa masyadong tinatablan ng nainom namin. I knew that I might become the designated driver so I chose not to drink too much."Naku, sabi naman kasing wag masyadong uminom. Lagot ako nito pag di nagising mamaya.""Just give her some aspirin. I'm sure she'll be okay.""Thank you Aus

Romance uses sexual intimacy to create or amplify closeness and mutual fulfillment. It's been proven and tested by many.But how do you keep up to the demands of romance when you know that intimacy warrants a form of exclusivity?"Alright." inilapag ko ang bowl na may lamang Pares at mami.Lumamig na ang sabaw na tinake out namin so I decided on heating it up.Sari was sitting in one of the chairs around the dining table wearing the long sleeve polo shirt I wore last night.I wanted her to wear something else, but she insisted on wearing this one.

Fronts. They all serve their purpose. Sometimes, it's convenient. But most of the times, is super inconvenient. But when it serves it's purpose, don't you just want to keep using them as is, not knowing how much it could potentially hurt them?"Pare, napapadalas na yata lunch out ninyo ni Joanne ah? Baka naman magkaseryosohan na 'yan?" I smiled as Travis started to drink from his own bottle. We were in his house's garage, simply spending our time together. Sari and her friends are out for a management team building, kaya tambay lang kami noong araw na 'yun. When we don't have anywhere that were invited in, madalas na kami ng dalawa ang magkasama. "So, how are you and Sari anyways?" "What do you mean?" my brows arched as I stared back at him. "Well, pare, pwedeng-pwede kayong magpanggap na walang nangyayari. And you can also keep pretending that Joanne interests you. But nothing ever compares to how you look at Sari. Yung mga nakaw na tingin ninyong dalawa sa isa't-isa, the

Business as usual. The whole cliché that giant businesses instill in the minds of its constituents. But like the business industry, business as usual also happens in real life. "Team, our current standing is not what I would call as ideal. Were at the bottom three out of fifteen teams in this account. I know you may think that this is not important but there's a lot at stake. If we manage to raise our scores, we'll have the ability to choose the schedules we prefer the moment that we bid for shifts. You'd have the best option for day-offs. There's also an incentive scheme for the team with the highest attained scores for this month. Some cash we can use for team buildings and all that. If you are interested, I can definitely help you where you need to be."Joanne raised her hand."Yes." Sari looked at her, in her poker face."TL, what do we do to achieve those scores?""Well, there are five different KPI's you all need to pass. Attendance, surveys, adjustments, repeat calls and of co

Revenge sex. Revenge sex is for the shallow minds. You do it, and you are doomed. Its been two weeks since I've last talked to her. After the incident in that coaching room, we've never talked again.I had to spend my time thinking of where things possibly went wrong.Travis on the other hand seems to be having the best time of his life with Melai.Tila tuko ang dalawa na hindi mo na mapaghihiwalay.Me on the other hand, I'm left alone like I didn't really have friends at all.Maliban na lamang kay Stacy na tuwina ay nakikiusyoso sa akin.She seems to be the only one who's neutral pati na rin si J.The team's performance skyrocketed on the next few days. All I could do is cooperate. Most of the times ay iwas na iwas si Sari sa akin. She'd coach almost everyone in the team except me. And when I make mistakes, she gets irritated and mad about it. A total conflict of interest. I get frustrated most of the time with how I am not coached or when I am not given the right feedback to

Why do people look up to the ceiling when they're tired, bored or regretting?Sa kisame ba nahahanap ang sagot sa lahat ng katanungan mo?I am literally staring at the ceiling while Joanne is sound asleep. Her legs wrapped around my hips.The reality of it all started crashing on me. I had sex with someone I didn't really had any intentions of doing it with.I swiftly got out of the bed and silently put on my boxers and my shirt. I didn't even bother putting on my pants. Its my house anyway.I took the time to drag my feet into the living room and took a jug of water. Tila uhaw na uhaw kong tinungga ang kalahati nga laman nito. Halos isang litrong container din 'yun.I leaned on the countertop and cursed at myself.Why did I do this?Maya-maya lang ay narinig ko ang pag-ring ng doorbell.I silently opened the door, still thinking of what just happened.Pagbukas ko ay bumungad ang mukha ni Jeremiah na may bitbit na plastic bags. I assumed they were alcohol."Dude!"Not too far from the

The consequences of stupidity is often instantaneous. And often times, these consequences determine how much of an asshole you really are. "Hey, thank you for waiting." Joanne's eyes would lit up like stars every time she sees me. Its been a month now na halos madalas na kaming magkasama ni Joanne. Some people in the office think that we're an item. I didn't want to disappoint her so I chose to ride with it. Sari has not talked to me nor has she reached out. Simply put, that night might have just been the end of it. "Austin?" malambing niyang sinambit ang pangalan ko. "Yes?" Bigla ay nagbago ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya. She bowed her head down and played with her fingers before she looked up at me again. "Wag na lang. Ihatid mo nalang ako pauwi."Then I realized I must have looked angry again. Travis has told me this before. Tila daw pasan ko ang mundo ever since I haven't talked with Sari. "I'm sorry. I'm just too stressed out lately." "It's okay. I understand. Iuwi mo

Obsession can be a petty thing to some.But for others, it changes the game to a whole 360.Halos tatlong oras din kaming bumiyahe bago namin narating ang private resort na binook namin. Halos dumidilim na din ang langit. The resort had three pools, one is an infinity that is looking out on a wonderful ocean view.Hindi kalakihan ng resort pero tamang-tama na para sa buong team. In general it fits any team building plans. There's a kitchen were we could cook our own food. There's two barkada rooms that we planned to utilize separately for Boys and Girls and three private cottages. One will be used by Sari, the other by Melai and one by J and Stacy who decided to stay together in a room. Of course, I will be crashing with the boys. As soon as we arrived, everyone get settled. The girls were in their room already sorting out their places. There were just a few of us boys so kung alin man ang mapili, yun na yun. Travis and I are in the same bunk bed. As soon as everyone was settled,
