PENNY
I WOKE up when I heard my phone ringing from beside me. Kinusot-kusot ko ang mga mata ko at kinuha ang phone gamit ang isang kamay.
Madaling araw na nang matapos kami sa pag-iinom ni Clifford. Well, it was mostly me who drank since kailangan pa raw niyang umuwi dahil walang nagbabantay sa lola niya kung kayaʼt ako na ang umubos sa binili naming alak.
Itʼs a bad idea though since my head hurts like hell. Now I remember why I avoided drinking for the past few weeks.
Kahit parang pumipintig ang ulo ko, binuksan ko pa rin ang phone ko. My eyes almost widened in shock when I saw Cliffordʼs name on the notifications — I got a message from him!
Naramdaman kong bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko. Memories from last night flashed through my mind.
"Panakip butas. Pain reliever. Call it whatever you want. As long as it takes away the pain, then I'm up for it."
"Payag na ako."
"Friends?"
"With benefits. Just the benefits. No strings attached."
Mas lalong bumilis ang tibok ng puso ko. What happened last night slowly sank into me.
He agreed... He fucking agreed?!
Pasimple kong kinurot ang kamay ko at halos lumuwa ang mga mata ko nang makaramdam ako ng kirot.
Shit! Hindi ako nanaginip!
Weʼre really doing this?!
Tumingin ako sa phone ko at binuksan ang bagong message ni Clifford.
8:46 AM
Clifford:
gising kna ba?
goodmorning
Despite my aching head, hindi ko pa rin mapigilang mapangiti. I heaved a deep breath before typing my response.
