Let's get drunk together and have some deep talks
.

Inabot n'ya sakin yung baso ng tubig at s'ya hawak ang isang can ng beer. Siraulo ba to?

"Are you serious?" Medyo naiinis kong saad at umupo s'ya sa tabi ko. "If you want me to talk about this give me the beer."

"Then get it." He dared so bago n'ya pa makuha sakin yon, I cheated by grabbing his chin and pull it close to me to kiss him quickly and after that I snatch that can of beer from him.

"Got it." I wink at him and drink the beer. "If you'll do that again, I will kiss that sweet evil mouth of yours, so better brace your pretty fvcking face." Nanggigil n'yang saad sakin at natawa lang ako.

"I'll tell you some shits but there are three things that I can't really tell you." I said and I rest my legs on his lap. "Are you really doing this to me? You're teasing me aren't you?"

"Do you want me to kick you?"

"No... Please proceed." He smiled at me and took a sip on the beer. "Ask me."

"Name?"

I gestured the number 1 at him "That's part of the things that I can't tell you."

"What?! Then what should I call you then?"

"You named me Cinderella and I liked it. Why? don't you like the name you named me?" I asked him at napa ngisi ito. "Papangalanan ba kita ng hindi maganda? Pero mas gusto ko tawagin ka sa pangalan mo."

Napa asik ako at ibinaba ang beer na dala ko saka tumayo. "You're already calling me on my name." I wink at him and walk away.

"W-Wait!? So that means..." he faced me at him as he said that happily at me and I chuckle. I pull away and was about to walk away again but he stopped me so napaasik na ko.

"Where are you going?"

"Let's get drunk together and have some deep talks." I said with a smile at napangiti na din s'ya. "Hindi naman pwedeng ako lang magpapakalasing dito at mag sshare ng mga bagay bagay diba?" I said and smiled even more.

"What the fvck is this?" Bigla n'yang sabi sabay dinutdot yung dimples ko. Fvck. Lumalabas lang dimples ko kapag napapasobra sa ngiti. I hold his hand and put it down then just walk in the kitchen.

Naglabas na ko ng mga stock ni chase na alak at habang isinasalin iyon sa isang malaking baso, naramdaman ko ang pag pulupot ng kamay n'ya sa bewang ko.

"Get off me." Medyo naiinis kong saad but he just rested his chin on my shoulder. I could feel his breath touching my skin that sends shiver down my spine.

Fvck this man at yung epekto n'ya sakin. "Sisikuhin kita." Banta ko at nung sisikuhin kona s'ya non agad n'yang nahawakan siko ko at tinignan ako.

"You always want to hurt me physically... I love it." He pecks on my cheeks and carried the drinks I made for us.

Sumunod na ko at bumalik kami sa pwesto namin kanina sa balcony. "Wait. It's cold." He stopped me when I was about to sit at bigla n'yang nilatag ang malaking comforter sa may sofa at pinaupo na ko agad kasunod n'ya saka binalot ko sarili ko sa comforter.

"Chase?"

"Hmm?" He hummed as he drink the beer he bought in at sumandal ako sa balikat n'ya. "Why were you obsessed with me? Honestly? I mean, based on the things you have told me about your past... You had a lot of girls and none of them stayed longer-

"I don't want them to stay. They were all just... the girls... I toyed with. And... When I met you... You were really different from others..." I smirk. I know, but I just want to have this deep conversations with him, okay? "Have you ever been in a relationship?" Chase asked so I looked at him and sigh.

"Yeah. but... it was very complicated... Pakitang tao lang s'ya sa una tas nung naging kami bigla nalang s'yang di nagparamdam." I said and half of it was true. Ang hindi lang ay yung hindi na s'ya nagparamdam kasi parati ko s'yang nakikita kaso busy s'ya sa pagiging siraulo around daddy and him.

"Chase tell me the truth..."

"About what?" He looks at me but I look away. "Is it true that... You came from prison?"

Nanahimik s'ya sandali at tanging narinig ko lang sa kanya ay ang kanyang pag inom sa alak kaya uminom lang din ako. "Hindi ba kapanipaniwala?" Natawa s'ya ng mahinhin so I slowly shook my head no.

"W-Why?"

Shit. Wrong question. Now I have to deal with this. "I-ugh, I just can't believe that..."

Ugh so dumb xey. Tahimik kaming pareho ng ilang minuto at napapikit ako nung nagsalita na s'ya. "I'm sorry."

"Then all you told me about that is wrong?" He sighs. "You know I understand if you can't let that thing out but I don't want you to make things up. You could choose any of these option... You come out clean or tell me that you can't tell me those things. Just don't make things up... It's kind of upsetting..."

Fvck and how dare you Xey to tell him that even if you're like that person to him? You're cruel xey. Very.

"I'm sorry... If I'll tell you about it then you'll be disappointed."

"I was already disappointed at you, at first, but look at us." I look at him and we both chuckled.

Nagsi inom ulit kami ng alak at pagkatapos non nagsalita nalang ng kusa si chase. "I was a victim of hazing at my... Military school." Napaubo ako nung iniinom kona ang baso ng alak ko.

"That's the most unforgettable... Dark past of mines so... Sorry I didn't have a chance to come out clean... It still stings." He even managed to smile in front of me as he drink up and after that he puts down his drink.

"Does your parents knew about this? When was this?" I asked at napahiga nalang s'ya sa sofa. "They knew this thing when I came back from that school after they saw my body which is full of tattoos. I asked a friend of mines to do it for me to cover the scars I get from that school. Because everytime I could see that scars it keeps on recalling. And I never wanted that to happen again..." natahimik muna s'ya at ako pucha hindi ko napansing naubos kona alak ko kaya yung sa kanya naman ang ininom ko.

"So... A friend of mines from that school gave me... T-That... Drug for me to escape that memories... I thought it won't work but fvck it feels good... even tho I know it's bad... And I ended doing some bullshits just to have my revenge at the people who did that to me..."

Fvck. Mapapatulala ka nalang sa kanya sa mga nasasabi n'ya eh.

"I even asked my father to support me and fvck I did everything to make it happen. And yeah, he did support me at my shit as I met his assistant Alejandro. The man I could trust on in this cruel world. Alejandro is like my brother and at the same time my best friend... He never kept shits from me. Alejandro was the guy who does everything just to make shit alright. He even warns me every single day from the shits we're doing but fvck... I never listened... Till... My parents died... And blame Alejandro for that..." He sighs deeply.

"It seems like you keep on blaming someone else from that incident because you couldn't look for the real person who did that..." I added.

"How can you sure about that?"

"If you'll just hear what you've said about your best friend Alejandro... It doesn't look like you really wanted to blame him."

"Why? Can't a man like him do bad shits like that?"

"Why? Do you also think your man Alejandro would do a shit to break you and from what I've heard from you about him, he's the one who leads you away from danger but you told me that you fvcked up so that shitty situation happened? So how could you now think of him do that after he works from you for a lot of years. Did he even betrayed you when shit changed mostly at the time you and your father changed everything good to bad ones?" Napatulala lang s'ya saakin at kaya napabuntong hininga ako at nagulat s'ya nung humiga ako sa taas n'ya. "Damn I knew Alejandro tells you shits. I didn't even mentioned some of the phrases you told me." He murmured so I smirk.

Wala s'yang nagawa maya-maya kundi yakapin nalang ako. "Maybe it's time for you to learn how to accept and understand things first before you plant anger about it... If anger eats you, sometimes we could not control it. And I don't want you and Alejandro end up become enemies just because of the misunderstandings." I caresses his chest and he hugged me tighter.

"I never listened to a woman... But I would obey what you said. Thank you. I'm sorry that I am in denial all this fvcking time... Thanks for pointing it out for me... " He kissed my forehead and I smiled.

"Just remember that I would be always here if you need someone. I'll stay by your side starting now." I looked up at him at umupo s'ya ng ayos kaya gumapang ako sa kanya at umupo sa kandungan n'ya.

"W-What do you mean?"

"You've stayed enough but I keep on leaving for no exact reason and I think it's done for me being a coward and just follow my heart. I'll take what it takes just to make sure that I'll stay by your side no matter what." I hold his face and lean forward to give him a peck.

"Are you telling me this because you're already drunk or-

I sealed him with a kiss again for a short moment then I pull away for a while. "Drunk or not. I meant what I told you." now a grin formed from his lips and was about to kiss me but I covered his mouth quickly.

"Get me some drink first. We're not yet finish." I said with a little chuckle and so he gave me that 'that's - unfair.' Look.

"Come on. Go get me a drink." I pat his shoulders and part myself away from him so he stood up and walk away while throwing me that tantrums.

Napatawa nalang ako sa gawi nito , napakuha ako sa phone ko dahil nakita ko na tumatawag si daddy ng ganong oras. Sinagot ko iyon at lumayo sa may pwesto kanina.

"Yes daddy?"

"Where are you?"

"At Sebastian Leonardo Chase Dean Aleistar Vicasente's Paradise resort here in Bahamas daddy. Why?" Natahimik si daddy sa kabilang linya. It's time for me to stop making plans and make things work out for me and chase.

"D-Daugh-

"Daddy... If... I'll gave your son a chance... Would things do great??"

"X-Xey..."

Daddy never called me at my First name and that means maybe he's serious right now. "Yes Mr. Javier?" Pangganti ko, alam kong lasing ako so I'm messing with him, but at the same time I need to be serious also because he's mentioning my first name.

"Sweetheart, you don't have to call me Mr. Javier just because you fell in love with my son. Actually I always wanted you to be married with my son and I thank God for that because it was happening! I called because I was worried about you! But since you are with my son, well I know you're safe with him. Just take care of my son-

"Daddy hold your horses. I need to go. Let's talk later he's here." I ended the call and faced back as I saw chase entering in with that tray of glasses with that 2 cases of drinks.

"I've thought about me going in a bar after I apologize to Leonardo, Why don't we just go in a bar nearby chase? That would be more fun!" I requested at pabagsak na lagay ni chase sa dala n'yang case sa lamesa at agad nang ipinako ang tingin nito saakin.

"Mas maganda kung tayong dalawa lang. Ayoko nang maging masaya ka dahil sa iba. Kaya gusto ko tayong dalwa nalang mag lasing. Tska tignan mo nga yang suot mo-

"Ano nanaman-

"Pakaganda ng suot mo baka mamaya sa sobrang confident mo sa mga pinagsusuot mo maagawan na ko ng iba." Tuloy n'ya at doon ako natawa. Siraulo talaga. Parang dati lang, he's always against my fashion.

"Sige, tara tayo nalang mag paparty dito." I ran at him and he grins. Automatic na s'yang ngumingiti kapag napapalapit ako sa kanya ah.

"Teka, Gusto ko pading malaman bat ka pala napadpad dito kaagad pagkatapos nating mag usap?" Nawala naman ngiti ko at umupo nalang sa sofa at tumabi si chase.

Panira ng plano ko sa pagyaya sa kanya sumayaw ano ba yan. Napa cross arms ako at humarap sa kanya. "Akala koba alam mona?"

"Cinderella magtatanong ba ko kung hindi ko alam?"

Inirapan ko s'ya. Nawawasak pride ko pag sumasagot s'ya "Nakwento kona sayo ah. Uulitin ko nanaman ba?"

"Ano ngaaa?" Parang batang angil nito saakin at humiga sa may kandungan ko. He's so cute when he's like this. So immature.

"Kase nga naffall na ko-

"So mahal moko?" Biglang tanong nito at umupo sa tabi ko at sobrang lapit nito saakin. "Nananapak ako kapag lasing chase." Banta ko dahil napipikon na ko sa pang aasar n'ya.

"So an-

"Higa ka nalang kwento ko nalang talambuhay ko diba eto gusto mo? Pero hindi mala Cinderella tulad sa fairy tales na nalalaman mo ha?" Pinwersa ko ang ulo n'ya na humiga sa kandungan ko kaya matawa-tawa pa s'yang humiga sa kandungan ko.

Kunwento ko sa kanya lahat habang naglalasing at pucha. That aftermath feeling.
