" I miss youuu" I answered Archi's call.

Damn, my head's pounding.

" Are you drunk?"

" No! Of course not!"

" You're drunk. Where's Patchouli? Or Titus?"

" Somewhere, making out!" I giggled. I heard Archi sighing. I gripped the railing so I wouldn't stumble upon people. The music's too loud, I couldn't even hear Archi.

" Baby, drink some water. You're drunk. I'll message Titus or Lyle."

" I miss youuu." I said softly.

" I miss you too, baby." he whispered back. I lean against the railing and bit my lower lip. God, I just missed Archi. It's just too hard without him.

" Come back home please..." I pleaded.

" So you're drinking because you missed me?" I can sense the teasing in his voice. I giggled.

" Kind of! But really, come home na! I want to hug and kiss you!"

" I might not come home this holidays." he sighed.

"W-what?"

" We've got some pending works to do, babe. It would take a lot of time to finish them before the new quarter starts."

" Kahit three days?"

" I'm sorry."

I bit my lower lip again. Miss na miss ko na si Archi pati ba naman pasko ipagkakait sa akin?

" Damn, I missed you."

" Siraulo." I barked. I heard him laughed on the other line. Even his voice, it's not the same anymore considering the months we were apart. Parang maraming nagbago.

" You're not drunk anymore?"

" Nawala pagkalasing ko just by hearing your voice." I giggled again. I could imagine Archi smirking and his brows rising.

" I wish I could go there." sabi ko sa kaniya. I stared at the flickering lights. The loud music died down a little. I saw my friends on the dancefloor having the time of their lives.

" I wish I could come home to you..." he whispered.

Damn these wishes.
