"I'm never drinking again." I murmured before vomiting my intestine out for the nth time. I woke up feeling so nauseated so I went straight here.

Isang oras na ata ako dito. Parang mabibiyak ang ulo ko sa sakit. Just what did I drink last night?

When I got a little better, I forced myself to stand and drink water. I was about to go back to bed when my Mom knocked. "Vienne, hija? Are you awake?"

I opened the door. "Oh my god, Vienne! You look like a mess!"

"Yeah, I've been throwing up, Ma."

"That's what you get for getting yourself too drunk!" I went to my bed and closed my eyes. My headache is not getting any better.

"Don't forget to thank and apologize to Cole for the trouble. What do I do with you?"

Cole...

Napadilat ako.

"Did Cole brought me here? How?"

"He carried you, of course! You were dead!"

Napapikit ako nang mariin sa sinabi ni Mama. "You gave him a hard time! Ayaw mong pakawalan yung damit tapos sinukahan mo pa!" Pagalit ni Mama.

Agad kong nasapo ang noo ko. Great. Just great, Erica Vienne.

"Go take a rest and I'll get you medicines for your hangover." She fixed my blanket before leaving. I dozed off after a while.

I was just watching Cole surf. It was our surfing activity. Again, it's just me and Cole. Hindi ko alam kung bakit pa ito sinali ni Mama sa plano. Pwede namang mag-enjoy kami dito sa Amanpulo without any activities.

"Hindi niyo po ba talaga susubukan, Ma'am?"

Ngumiti ako ng tipid bago umiling. "Manonood nalang po ako."

"Masaya naman po, Ma'am. Tignan niyo po si Sir, oh?" Turo niya pa kay Cole.

Cole, wearing only his khaki beach shorts, is riding his surf board smoothly. He rides it like a pro. Surfing must be one of his hobbies. He seems like a very athletic person— if we're gonna base it on his physique. His muscles are on the right places. The amount of melanin in his body made him look more manly.

"Am I entertaining you, Ms. Pharmacist?" He asked— obviously teasing me.

Oh, he's right here.

When did he get here?

Inirapan ko siya. Pinili niya akong tabihan. Do I talk to him now? What do I say? Fuck.

"So, how bad was your hangover?"

I cleared my throat and started playing with my fingers. He just had to open that conversation, huh.

"I threw up the whole morning, so it was fine, I guess." I sarcastically answered that made him chuckle while pushing his wet hair back.

"Uhm..." Fuck, how do I start? "I heard what I did..."

"U-huh..." I can feel his stare. Why is he staring?

"I'm sorry, I passed out." I cleared my throat again. I need water. "D-Did I say something stupid?"

He didn't say anything for a whole minute, so I decided to look at him. He was just staring at me with his playful grin, probably contemplating whether to answer my question already or tease me first. I almost rolled my eyes at that thought.

He ruffled my hair. "Don't get yourself too drunk."

"That was the first time." Pagtatanggol ko sa sarili ko.
