"Do you need help? I feel guilty. I should help you."


He tried to reach for my arms but I moved away from him. I slightly lifted my head up because he was taller than me. But as I shifted my eyes to my back, I got alarmed when I saw the guy from the bathroom earlier so I went to the guy's back and made him my shield.


"Don't come near me."


Na-alarma rin yung lalake at hindi na humakbang pa dahil sa banta ko. Nakita kong lumingon sa likuran ko iyang lalake na ginawa kong shield na kasalukuyang naka-kunot ang noo.


"Do you know each other?" he asked.


"No!"


"Yes."


I scoffed when I heard the guy say "yes". The audacity of this freaking stranger. Hindi niya ata alam na minor pa ako.


"Do you know him?" The guy glared at me and whispered. Tinignan ko siya sa mata at mabilis akong umiling.


The side of his lips pursed and nodded.


"Hindi ka pala niya kilala, Lance. At mukhang lasing ka na. You should probably rest or better yet..., go home bro. She's coming with me."


He went to my side and held my elbow. My other hand is still on my touching head because I can still feel the pain in it. Did it bruise? I hope not.


I look at the other guy and gave him death glares. Akala mo kung sinong gwapo.


Pinapasok ako ng lalakeng nagka-sala sa akin at nang tumingala ako sa harapan, namataan ko si Fia na nakayuko ang ulo at nakatayo sa harap ng isang room.


"Twinny!"


Agad kong nakuha ang atensyon niya at tumakbo ako papalapit sa kaniya at niyakap siya.


"You said nasa labas ka! Bakit nandito ka sa loob?" Kumalas ako sa pagkakayakap sa kaniya at hinarap siya.


"Nasa labas nga ako. See..." she said then pointed out the sliding door.


"Labas."


I gave her an unusual look while my mouth parted. I don't know if she was being sarcastic or what so I just shook my head while caressing my forehead.


"What happened to your forehead?" I glared at her as she looked at me with her brows furrowed.


"Patingin nga..."


Inalis niya ang kamay ko sa paghawak nito at maiging tinignan.
