I groaned when my head felt like splitting with hang over. I can't even count how many shots I've drunk but all I can remember was when I danced after drinking alcohol. I should take note that I'm not a good drinker nor a good dancer. When I tried to get up, I pinched my nose bridge and groaned. "Curse you, Aloysius!" I angrily said. I will not drink any beverages Alois will give me in the future. I tried to remember when did I got home and who brought me here. I can remember my conversation with Alois that if ever I can't drive, he would drive me back home.

"Hmm." Nanatili akong nakahalukipkip at nakatingin kay Tanya habang tinitingnan niya ang mga litrato. Hindi na mapigilan ang umangat ng isang kilay ko habang tinitingnan ang buntis kong kaibigan na titigan ang mga litrato habang hinihimas niya ang kaniyang tiyan. 

Nezha Marleigh Sanchez I heard heels clicking on the floor board inside my office. I continued to work on my new design in my studio but when the clicking stopped, a hand slammed on my table. "Nezha Marleigh Sanchez!" Matinis na boses ni Hansel ang dumagundong sa studio ko na maging ang mga staff ko ay napapitlag. Hindi ako nag-angat ng tingin sa kaniya at patuloy lamang sa ginagawa ko. "Oh, you're back, fine and still walking." I heard her exasperated sigh. She's so done with me and my snark remarks. "Ano itong nalaman ko na bumalik ka na naman sa pagiging workaholic mo? Tanya told me you are not answering her calls and you did not even go home for almost a week!" Ibinaba ko ang mga pangkulay na gamit ko at nagpangalumbaba sa harapan niya. I scanned her body and smirked. Muli na naman niyang kinalabog ang lamesa. "Nezha! Anong nginingisi-ngisi mo riyan?" I just shrugged at her and picked my color pencils and continued t

Nezha Marleigh Sanchez I woke up with the sound of waves and the heat of the sun. Nang imulat ko ang aking mga mata ay bumungad sa akin si Kalisto na nakaupo sa isang upuan at nakaharap sa dagat nang may hawak na libro. He's wearing a gray bathrobe and I wonder how I got here when all I can recall was when I'm sitting on the sand. Tumayo ako sa higaan at kinuha ang bathrobe na nasa gilid ng kama. I covered myself because I'm still wearing the summer dress I wore yesterday and it was actually thin that someone could see my bando underneath. Umupo ako sa katapat na upuan at nagpangalumbaba. I tapped my fingers on the table yet he still didn't notice that I'm beside him. He's wearing earphones while reading the book he was holding. No wonder why he didn't notice me, he was too engrossed on what he was reading. Dinampot ko ang orange juice na nasa lamesa at sumimsim doon. I brought the orange juice inside and checked my phon

Kalisto Rivera   "Stay with me."   I know she's already drunk as of this moment and I shouldn't take advantage of her vulnerability but her damn voice plead for me to stay. Marahan niyang hinawakan ang braso ko. Huminga ako nang malalim at pilit na kinaklaro ang isipan ko. I should not take advantage of her at this moment. She walked inside the bathroom, still holding my arm, her soft hands slid down to my wrist, down to my hand. My breaths hitched. Her touch sent an indescribable current in my system.   "Stay with me, Kalisto."   I stood frozen on my track when she called my name. The last time she was drunk, she called another man's name and that woke me up from kissing her senselessly. Her eyes are already drooping and it looked like she would fall asleep anytime, her face up to her collarbone were flushed red and she cannot walk straight. She really has a low alcohol tolerance ye
