Chapter 1

A tiring day but it's all worth it for this young man named Dizen who's sitting down on the passenger seat, watching the street lights as they travelling back to their home and then the car stopped as the traffic lights are now red. Beside him is his best friend Celo who always keep him company whenever he's up to something especially about doing all the things included on his bucket list which is their current errand.

"Are we gonna rest for tomorrow or will run some another errand?" Celo asked, waiting for the lights turn to green.

"I have no idea what is happening in the company since I started to have a leave, maybe I'll go there tomorrow," Dizen replied, not giving a look to Celo.

"But your dad already know your condition and I guess he understands you, he loves you..." Celo paused before he continued, "besides, he can clearly manage the company so what are you worrying for?"

Dizen let out a sigh, "Okay, let me just check my bucket list and see what's next." He stayed silent for mere seconds and then he blurted, "Shit, it's almost done except for this one..." he gazed at Celo who just shrugged his shoulders, waiting for what he'll say next.

"Find a lover," Dizen said in his low-registered voice.

Celo just smirked and tsk-tsked, "Basic. Your a babe magnet, dude, you know it too." He paused, rolling the steering wheel, "We'll just go to a bar and you don't have to wait for ages, you just stand there for seconds and then you'll have a girl who will love you to death."

"I want a different one," he seriously replied.

Celo just chuckled, not convinced on what his best friend said, "You're so used to typical kind of girls and what do you want now? Cheap girls? Or some poor girls messing around the street like-- holy shit!"

Speaking of which, they bumped-- not on a car or truck but a girl or maybe just like what Celo is talking about a while ago-- some poor girl messing around the street.

"What the fuck? Do you even know how to use the brake?" Dizen fussed, all of his tiredness were seemed to be all gone now because of such great consternation happened on their way.

"Of course, Dizen, I know... I'm not dumb." Celo remained calm unlike Dizen who are more likely to have a panick attack whenever a circumstance came up.

"Just shut the fuck up Celo and check out if she's alive!" Dizen even pointed his index finger to the outside direction, almost screamed his lungs out of nervousness and keep praying to God that that girl is alive.

And the Lord seemed to grant his prayer immediately.

 "Woah! She's alive!" Celo hollered across the street and Dizen heard that magic word right after he rolled down the window of the car. "Unbelievable."

They watched the girl crawled to get the bottle of alcohol she was drinking earlier. What is she thinking then? Hoping there's still left on it and it's not empty? She stood up, not minding her dirty white dress or even the bruises and small wounds on her knees she got from the accident. She finally made her way into the car.

"Wait, what?" Dizen felt a sense of wonderment as he gazed at the girl approaching the backseat door.

Celo walked with quick steps to get back at the car as soon as possible before the lady make it.

"Why the hell is she doing here inside my car?" Dizen said unluckily, staring at the lady even if he told himself not to stare.

"Aren't you gonna shoo her away?" Celo asked, planning to fasten his seatbelt.

Dizen was silent for a good minute as he thought of what should be his response to his best friend but when he was able to come up to his senses, he threw a gaze to Cello and spoke up, "I think she's drunk, uh... I think... I can't let her go like that."

"Huh?" Celo's face is as crumpled as piece of paper, his brows are almost touching.

"Drive the car, Celo, we're causing traffic." Dizen commanded once he heard loud sound of horns coming from honking vehicles around them. 

"Are you sure, dude?" Celo gave him the look.

"Drive." Dizen answered him a head nod.

"I mean you don't even know her... or else..." Celo looked Dizen in the eyes and seemed to understand the thing, "okay, I get it now."

"Go." Dizen shook his head once more, rolling the windows up.

"You like that type, huh? You know it's a crime, bro." Celo said before he started the engine, teasing his best friend using his annoying facial expressions.

"Crime, my ass! Just drive shotgun so we can rest!" Dizen rolled his eyes after a quick fuss.

"It's kidnapping, bro." Celo chuckled, driving too fast but still keeping their safety.

"She looks different and I think she's the fulfillment of my bucket list. I'll just asked her about it tomorrow," Dizen sighed, leaning his head on the seat which the upper portion is made of leather.

"Good idea, you should discuss it with her tomorrow... but wait, are you gonna sleep with her?" Celo gave him a glimpse, minding the road.

Dizen replied but he began stuttering, "I-I don't know... I don't think--"

"Yeah, don't think 'cause how about me?" Celo interjected, "Don't say you'll let me sleep on the floor or on the sofa? Fuck you if you do."

"We'll see." Dizen snickered, secretly gazing at the back to see the condition of the girl. Celo just shook his head as he saw what Dizen doing on his peripheral view, he just let him observe the girl and he keep himself busy driving. 

Celo can't stop thinking what Dizen saw with that random girl, he looked again at the lady for a short time and then he saw nothing special on her plus she annoyed him by her constant moans and groans, she might got a low tolerance in alcohol.

Celo sighed, erasing all the thoughts running at the back of his head. The conversation between him and Dizen finally ended when they began to keep quieat. Celo just focused all of his attention on driving the car. He seemed tired but wasn't able to close his eyes until they finally arrived on their place. He pressed his foot on the brake so the car stopped at the front of their gate, waiting for the guard to open it. He drove the car inside when the gate finally opened and now it is being closed by their security guard again.

Once they reached the garage, squeezing and pulling out the key, Celo gave Dizen a look.

"Wake her up, man." 

"Oh, right..." Dizen get out of the car, hurrying to open the backseat door. 

Celo followed him, "You sure about this, huh?" he asked, watching his friend waking up the girl.

But once he couldn't wake up the girl though he tapped and shook her body for several times, he decided to carry her on his arms and when he turned to face Celo: "Yeah, I think I'll like her," he surely said.

"Poor girl." Celo whispered, trailing behind Dizen.

After some footsteps, they are now in front of the main door and from there, three maids are waiting. 

"Good evening, sir." The girl in the middle greeted, who seemed to be the youngest among the three.

"Good evening," Dizen replied back, drawing a cheap smile on his lips. He looked at the girl he's carrying on his arms when the maids noticed her but he didn't got bothered by those stares instead he just threw a question when he gazed back to the three, "Is dad here?"

"He's sleeping on his room, sir." The other maid on the left answered, she's like in her 40's but her posture made her even look ten years younger.

"Okay, excuse me." Dizen started to walk away when the three moved and give him way, Celo is still wordless and just following Dizen footsteps but he almost bumped on his friend's back when he stopped and turned his back to face the maids, "Hey, just don't tell dad that I--"

"Oh, sure, sir!" The three maids answered, plastering a wide grin as it is an assurance that everything is safe and they won't tell any thing about what they saw, "Our lips are zipped, sir!" they said it in chorus.

"Thanks, you have some extra tips from me." Dizen winked as he couldn't give them a thumbs up because he's carrying the girl and she's getting heavier the longer he carry her. "Let's go, Celo." 

The three maids couldn't stop themselves from giggling and twittering about that extra tip they will get sooner from mister Dizen. He is not just the son of their boss but he's known by them as a man who is true in his words so there's no way he's just kidding. Not to mention that he is a gallant and chivalrous person when it comes to money.

"Open it," Dizen meant the door so Celo did.

It's just a matter of few steps and he will finally put down the weak body of that drunk girl. 

"Did I hit her that hard?" Celo asked himself, watching his friend adjusting the dishevelled sheets.

"You really dare to ask that, huh?" Dizen clapped his palms up and down, turning face-to-face with Celo, "Can she answer you right now?"

"No, she can't. She's unconscious." Celo's fast response, making some little shoulder shrugs.

"Right. So probably you hurt her that bad, tomorrow if she demands about her wounds, we'll take her to the hospital." Dizen turned his back right after he said those words, he's rehashing the pillow to fit it into the head of that sleeping lady.

"Are you mad? Why do you sound like you're his father?" Celo talked behind his back and then he was astonished totally when Dizen faced him, "The fuck, Dizen? What happened to you?"

"What on earth! Obviously, you can tell," Dizen with some sticky white thingy on his face that really smells so bad Celo didn't even want to smell it in his whole life.

"Yeah, you're so damn unlucky." Celo began to snicker, watching his poor friend with his dirty face and clothes.

"This girl! Ugh! How dare you puked on me?" Dizen yelled back at the girl who's now murmuring something and wiping her messy mouth.

He turned to face his friend and ordered him, "Celo, get out of this room!"

"Why?" Celo's brows are almost united, "Are you gonna revenge her while she's powerless?"

"What the? Go downstairs and tell the maids to clean her, clean my room and clean your dirty mind! Now!" He emphasized each of words to make his friend understand it.

"Harsh." Celo is kinda hurt but that ain't for sure.

"Did you hear me?" Dizen asked again with his eyes big, wider than his normal eye size.

"Okay, take a shower, you stinks! Gross!" Celo still managed to tease her friend before running down the stairs.

Dizen walked back towards the girl on his bed as soon as Celo was so out of his sight, "Of course, I stinks and that's because of..." he slowly stepped his feet, observing every details he sees, "...you."

He was not aware that he's been gaping at the girl for some good minutes to the point that his senses gone away cause he could not even hear those loud knocks from the door.

"Sir?" The youngest maid called out him but Dizen was not back to his senses.

"Sir?" The younger maid but the guy still on his fancies to the girl sleeping on his bed so the three looked at each other and nodded to each other. Well now they know what to do just to catch the attention of their boss.

"Sir Dizen!" they said in chorus with enough volume to make Dizen back to his senses.

"Oh! Come here, come here." Dizen's words once he noticed and heard the three. He explained what they will do and right after he instructed the three, he decided to go to the bathroom.

"I will take a bath. I'll leave it to you guys," he turned his back and walked away.

"Yes, sir." The maids started to clean the room and the floor where some of the puke scattered down.

As Dizen making his way to the bathroom, he noticed Celo standing at the door, leaning his elbow to the corner of the open door so he approached his friend and told him to, "Close your eyes, don't peek at her!"

Celo just looked at him and confidently answered back,"It's a no-no for me, bro... she's not my type, she's all yours. Plug her into your lungs!"

Dizen just nod his head and raised his eyebrow, "Maybe shutting the door is a good idea."

He slammed the door. He almost got Celo's face but when he realized he forgot something to tell, he reopened the door, "Go to the salas, wait for me there."

"Why would I?" Celo rebounded.

"Why wouldn't you?" Dizen with his little patience left.

"Don't tell me we'll sleep on the sofa and you will let her sleep in your room? Oh, come on, Dizen, I would be really jealous of that girl." Celo still managed to have some nonsense argument with his best friend.

"Like I care," Dizen rolled his eyes.

"What the fuck did you say? Do you forgot your best friend? Do you... forgot about..." Celo paused when he threw his eyes to the other door, "...the guest room! Yeah, the guest room, hehe!"

Dizen stopped, looking at the closed door of the guest room. Later on his eyes widened and a wide grin came out from his mouth, he faced Celo and said, "Nice idea! You got healthy brain cells, huh?"

"Because... it's right in front of your bed room, yay!" Celo continuously moving his brows up and down, smiling like a happy kid. Why wouldn't he be happy anyways, he almost forgot the time when he slept on that guest room... that luxurious and beautiful guest room rather.

"Yes bitch so go inside the guest room and clean it," Dizen said before he slammed the door and make his way towards the comfort room.

He gave a glimpsed to the maids who is still busy cleaning the sheets and the floor, smiling while continuing to make his way into the bath room. He finally got inside it and he's still good mood. He is kind of full energy even it is past nine o'clock in the evening where a man should be helpless and lame because of a tiring day and rest is the only thing who could bring back the energy. 

We don't know why is he like well recharged when he encountered that girl almost a half an hour ago. Well it is not the right time to question his self, maybe it is too early so that he's is just vibing right now, feeling the warm water he chose to have in his shower. 

There is only one thing running inside of his mind right now-- he's interested to that peculiar lady.
