The flickering neon lights dominated the whole room. Sinubukan ko silang hanapin sa kumpulan ng tao at nang mahagilap ko ang mahabang table kung saan may limang nagtatawanan, napangiti ako.
Wearing a only a oversized sweater over my two-piece swimsuit, I joined them. Mabilis akong umupo sa tabi ni Olivia na mukhang pawis pa.
I pointed her with a confused look while glancing at the two couples in front of me.
"Halos sabay lang kayo. May inasikaso rin 'yan sa bagong libro na ilalabas ng team nila sa isang project kaya late," Oshlov initiated to answer me.
"Galing ka sa—" Bago pa maipagpatuloy ni Stephen ang sasabihin niya ay tumango na ako saka ngumisi nang makita ko kun
End! Thank you for supporting my story. I hope you enjoyed it. Gems/reviews are highly appreciated! <3
“What if Beast is a lady and she met somebody’s Prince Charming?” PINK NEON LIGHTS that swayed in every single doom in the smokey cube room, the soothing smell of the strong liquors mixed with head-turning perfumes—it’secstasy. Eight in the evening and for a graduating college girl, probably, you should be doing your home works or stressing yourself thinking about your thesis but... that’s nothertype of routine. That’s notIbiza Blessed Bartolomebecause she preferred to stay in this place to change the cruel agonies into desired fantasies. She was oozing with sex appeal. She grooved and walked as if she was the queen to be respected, feared, and honored. Everyone could say that, indeed, she was a neck breaker as she wore her leather boots, denim skirt, pink sports bra and see-through cardigan. “That’s it? Th
“Wake up, little monster.” I wrinkled my nose as I felt something tickling my nostrils while I was still half asleep. I somehow smelled that thing and it pretty sucks, smells like nature.“Go away, Oshi. I want to sleep more. It wasn’t spring to wake me up with that vibe,” I snorted. Imbis na tumigil ang loka-loka kong pinsan, mas kinalikot niya pa ako gamit ang bagay na iyon. Amoy lupa na hindi ko maintindihan kaya naman wala na akong nagawa kung hindi dumilat.Bumungad sa umaga ko ang nakangiti kong pinsan. Ang lawak-lawak noon at pakiramdam ko, ikapupunit iyon ng labi niya. Halatang nagpapa-cute siya na parang anghel pero imbis na haleluya ang background song, chant na ‘p.i.’ ang naririnig ko. Was there a black emo angel? But I could refer her as one...“Why are you staring at me? Are you turning gay?”“You look like a smirking demon, not a smiling angel, babe,” I commented as I
My eyes were closed as I felt every beat of the first verse. Trying to loosen up and release all the negativity of my freaking life, I tried to feel the water up until my neck. The pool area was dim so the reflection of the arctic blue tiles filled the room because of the lights under me.I swayed my arms to make waves so I smiled. I looked down and check my suit, bandeau style top and thin-stringed bottoms, while mimicking the song “Strip” by Little Mix on my Playlist. “If you got little boobs, love it. If you got a big ass, grab it. If you got nothing big, rock it. It's your life, go get it, if you want it,” I sang and swayed my hips this time.
“Shit,” I moaned as I heard my phone ringing. I opened my eyes. Nabuhay ang dugo ko, like I was obliged to sing “The National Manthem” by Little Mix. “Don’t break your promise. Thou shall be faithful and honest.” Damn. If a doctor told me that I only have thirty-two seconds in my life, I would definitely listen to this perfect song.“Yes, hello. What do you need in the morning?” I answered the phone without checking who called me but instead of a furious replied, I received a sexy chuckle.“Blessed
"Oh, you know her name!" Oshlov declared in a sarcastic way, na parang may ipinapahiwatig siya.Cydeo shrugged. "Yes. Madalas siyang usapan sa College of Commerce, specifically my blockmates, kaya hindi ko rin maiwasang makinig. Sorry if that offended you," he reasoned out. His voice made my knees weak. It was husky baritone which got me distracted. Napatingin ulit ako sa labi niya sabay balik sa mga mata niya. Damn, I was seeing an angel.Mezka giggled which caught my attention. "You're a campus crush pala. Before naririnig ko na yata ang names mo sa guy friends ko sa student council. You're a chic daw and now that I see you na, I proved that surreal. You are gorgeous nga talaga," she said with an excited voice. Nailang ako sa compliment na binigay niya kaya hindi ko alam kung paanong ngiti ang gagawin ko. "Anyway, paniguradong k
I excused myself from my friends who were all drunk and wasted. I felt like my urinary bladder would explode any moment kaya naman patakbo na ang lakad ko at nilalampasan ang mga nagsasayawan sa buong bar.Nakakabingi, magulo, siksikan, mausok, amoy-alak at maraming 'di kaaya-ayang pangyayari ang nasa loob ng lugar na tinuturing kong tambayan. This was where I felt comfortable. Dito ko nailalabas kung sino talaga ako.Having nasty bad things around you was not an issue, it was how you let it affect you and how you would deal with it. Ang hirap kasi sa tao, masyadong ma-issue at judgmental. They kept on looking what's outside. Minsan kung sino pa yung mukhang santo, sila pa yung hindi mo aasahang demonyo. Yeah, right. Been there, done that.Napabuga ako ng hininga nang mailabas ko
"What's the use of being here if you're on your ear piece, Ibiza?" Nabigla ako nang tanggalin ni Oshlov ang headset ko dahilan para mapataas ang tingin ko sa kanya, technically, sa lahat ng tao sa table. There were all looking at me."What?" I asked and looked at her. "What?" I repeated and immediately shifted the tab. Pinapanuod ko ang isang event kung saan naglalakad sa runway si Cydeo pero nang silipin 'yon ni Oshlov, nasa music na 'to kung saan nagpe-play ang "Only You" by Little Mix.Nakita ko ang pagdududa sa mga mata ng demonyo kong pinsan kaya inagaw niya ang left ear piece ko since she was on my right. Pinakinggan niya rin 'to na para bang kahina-hinala ang pinakikinggan kong kanta.Bago pa mag-chorus ay tinanggal niya na rin 'yon at ibinalibag sa 'kin na hindi ko alam k
Two days of having a secret-on relationship with Cydeo felt exciting. Para kaming mga bata na nagre-rebelde sa mga tao. Us against the world but in reality, it was me against Mezka lang talaga.Naging maganda naman ang takbo ng mga pag-uusap namin ni Cydeo. Habang tumatagal, mas nakikilala ko siya. I was starting to unlike him now. Nakikita ko yung flaws at imperfections niya na agad kong tinanggap because all of them were reasonable and that made him, normal and reachable. With that though, hindi ko na siya gusto kasi unti-unti nang nagiging totoo yung nararamdaman konglove.I sighed after closing the laptop I just used a while ago. Naiayos ko na ang orders at natanggap ko na ang mga bayad. Malamang sa malamang, asikasuhin ko na rin ang pagpapadala ng mga natirang branded bags sa stock ko. Ayaw ko ng nagtatambak ng
