I lost count of how many glasses I’ve already had, but one thing is for sure: I’m already wasted. My head’s spinning with the disco lights swirling wildly over where we were sitting.

“Are you still okay, dude?” Zade asked. He’s with a girl next to him who couldn’t seem to leave his side. I just avert my gaze every time they start making out. I’m used to this since I often hang out at bars during my free time.

It’s just the three of us at our table since Wat has been missing for a while. I have no idea where he went.

“I’m still good,” I replied, not really sure if it’s true. Well, as long as I can still open my eyes, I think I’m still fine.

I looked around the place. It’s too crowded, probably because it’s a weekday. Some are dancing on the dance floor, some are just drinking, and there are also others who are practically using the bar as a motel.

I sighed before taking a sip of the remaining alcohol in my glass.

“Hey, guys.”

I turned my attention to Wat, who had just arrived.

    “What?” he said in surprise, his eyebrows furrowed together.“It is exactly what you heard,” I said and turned away from him.I heard the long and heavy strides he took. Before I could even open the door to my bathroom, he had already caught my arm. I closed my eyes in annoyance and tried to control myself from bursting out.“Tell me I heard it wrong,” he demanded, his voice cold.“I’m sure I said it loud enough, so stop pretending. I don’t want this setup anymore. Leave,” I said, still facing away from him.“You don’t get to decide on your own, Noah. After ignoring me for two weeks, this is how you’re going to greet me? Why, huh? Do you have someone else? Have you found someone new? Are you fed up with me? Is that why you want to end this?” he said with a hint of mockery.I harshly pulled my arm away from him. I couldn’t control myself and turned to look at him. I threw him daggers.I huffed, my lips forming into a mocking smirk. “Is that how much of a jerk you are, Kayden?”“What?”

    I lightly pushed him away from me, just enough to create space between us. I lifted my gaze to his face. His eyes were dull, as if they were trying to say something.“W-What are you doing here?” I asked in a weak voice.Instead of answering, he just kept staring at me. His hand landed on my head, gently stroking my hair. Using his hand, he brushed my bangs upward. I couldn’t help but close my eyes, savoring his touch. His other hand was now on my waist. Damn, I miss his presence close to me.We’ve only been apart for two weeks, but it feels as if my body has been yearning for something for years already.“Kayden...” I muttered, trying to get his attention. “Why are you here?” I asked again.How did he find out where I was currently staying? Only my close friends knew about this house, but because it had been over a year since we left, I’m sure they wouldn’t think I’m still here.Aside from that, what is he doing here? Is he here to—damn, I might be reading too much into this. He’s goi

    I bit my lower lip, trying to hold back a smile as I read his messages. Damn it, why am I happy? I should still be mad at him!But wait... he was waiting for me? I read his message asking me to stop by the restaurant to buy dinner, but I didn’t come home last night. What did he eat then? Or did he even eat at all? Or maybe he just let himself go hungry again?My eyebrows furrowed at that thought. Why am I so mad? What do I care anyway? Even if he gets sick, I shouldn’t care. Yeah, right. I shouldn’t.I sat down on my bed in frustration and pulled my hair. I don’t know at what point in my life I missed the mark, and I’m starting to get confused like this. I feel so lost in my own thoughts. Am I going crazy? If being away from him already affects me this much, how much more when I have to live with him again under the same roof every day? I might completely lose my mind.I am starting to get terrified of where this confusion will lead me.I heaved a sigh before blocking his number. I’ll

    As expected, I woke up with a throbbing headache. I pounded my head because of the pain. Fuck hangover. Even though I was feeling dizzy, I still managed to leave my room and go downstairs. My eyes landed on the huge family picture of us hanging on the wall in the living room. We were all wearing formal attire and smiling in that picture. Our family is small, given that I am an only child, but we were so happy and content. There was never a day that our house was not filled with laughter and joy. I sighed heavily as grief started to kick in again. I miss how my life used to be. If I were given the chance to choose which phase of my life to live in, I would choose that time in my life when, even though I wasn’t as successful as I am now, I was the happiest at that moment. I roamed my eyes around the house, reminiscing about all the memories we have built here over the decades. I couldn’t help but feel nostalgic. It’s been over a year since I last visited. We never went back since we s

    I was caught off guard when he attacked me with a kiss. I moved my lips to match his movements. He cupped my face and slid his tongue into my mouth, sucking on it. His lips were soft, but I couldn’t find satisfaction. It felt like my body was yearning for someone else’s lips. His kisses slowly trailed down to my jawline and then to my neck. I moaned as his hot tongue licked and nipped at my skin. I shut my eyes tightly and tried to force myself to enjoy what he was doing, even though I felt guilty for some unknown reason. I knew to myself that something felt wrong. My body and heart were betraying me. I felt like I was committing an unforgivable crime. Damn it... What’s happening to me? Why am I thinking like this? This isn’t me! I touched his shoulder and pushed him slightly, just enough to level our faces again. He looked at me drunkenly. He was undoubtedly handsome, but I couldn’t find myself naturally attracted to him. I had to force myself, and that’s something I couldn’t
