Stacie's POV

"Urgh" what just happened? My head is pounding and my body is aching. Inikot ko paningin sa paligid, this familiar room. How did I get here? Where's Liv? After a few minutes, I decided to stand and I put on the first clothes I saw and as I went out of the room.

"How are you feeling" biglang tanong niya

"Ay. Pucha!" Npatalon ako sa gulat bigla na lang kasing sumulpot sa likuran ko

"Any hangover?"

"Yeah, like I got run over," I said while massaging my head

"You should've told me that you were taking something last night, where did you get it?" Taas kilay niyang tanong. Pero, what the hell is she saying?

"Ano bang pinagsasabi mo?" Puno pagtatakang tanong ko

"Well, i think you took something last night. Like drugs?" Nanlaki naman ang mata ko sa sinabi niya

"What?! Of course not!" Hindi ko maiwasang mapataas ang boses

"Are you sure?"

"Oh my God. Are you asking me that?!" Naiirita na ko. What does she think of me?

"Sorry, I didn't mean to sound like that. You were wasted last night"

"The last thing I remember is when we were dancing and then I went to the bar to get some drinks"

"Sh*t. I think someone slipped something in your drink" she said

"Oh my God. Do I need to see a doctor?" Tarantang tanong ko, since this is the first it happened to me

"No. F*ck that, f*ckng bastard. I saw a guy that was next to you, I'm such an idiot. I didn't bother since he was trying to help you daw. God, he could've done something to you! I will f*ckng kill him" I can feel her rage, but before she can do anything that she will regret I grab her hand

"Liv, stop. I'm fine you see? Nothing happened" I said calmly

"Yes, nothing happened dahil I was there on time. What if hindi mo ko kasama or I didn't see your situation? He could've done inappropriate to you!" Galit niyang turan. Dapat nga ako magalit dahil sa ginawa sakin, but she's saying it like she's blaming me dahil sa nangyari.

"Stop it. You're not my mother nor my bodyguard. You're not even my-" i said pero hindi natapos dahil nagsalita siya

"Not your what Stacie? What am I to you then?" She said while crossing her arms. I don't care if she's my boss

"You're not my princess charming. I'm not a little princess that needs your saving. I can save myself."

"It doesn't matter," she said

"Yeah, it doesn't" I finally said and walked out.

"Where are you going?"

"Getting dressed, I'm going home," I said plainly, I didn't want to argue anymore

"Stacie, I'm sorry I shouted," she said softly. Hinarap ko naman siya

"I don't care. I don't like this being an alpha possessive, whatever you call it. I don't belong to you or anyone"

"Stacie," I didn't bother to look at her anymore at sinuot ang mga damit ko

"Bye" I went straight out of her room without taking a glance at her
Pagkasakay ko nang taxi, I realise and admit that I overreacted, but thinking of someone drugging me, scared me. I felt like I was losing control of my life. I know it wasn't her fault and I am to blame for what happened to me. I should have been more careful, It just that didn't expect that it would happen to me.
