On the brink of insanity (On-going)

1

I was eating my breakfast here at the school's cafeteria. Yes i skip my class! Because i feel like i'm going to starve to death if i never put some food on my poor stomach. Plus, my head hurts too, fuck alcohol! Did i really drunk a lot ba kagabi? I can't barely remember, basta i talked to my dad then i got a hard time on answering my worksheets on chem so kinuha ko yung one bottle of black label. And i got this hangover. How pitiful i am!

I was about to drink a water, to dozed off a little what i'm feeling, when someone sit in front of my table. I expect this, no other than, Hazel. But i just ignored her, i don't have time to start a commotion. I want to enjoy my food.

"Jeez! You bitch! Bakit mukha kang zombie ha? Hindi ka rin nagrereply sa text and calls ko, i do worry about you earlier. Ano na naman ba problema mo at nagskip  ka ng first class, aber?," She slum the table then. And here i am being scolded by Hazel, my friend, she really used to acted up as if she's my mom.

I rolled my eyes and put off my utensils. "I lost my appetite." Then i stand up and get my things from the chair, when Hazel got a grip on my one hand and move closer to me.

"Naknang! Uminom ka ba? Why the hell your body reeks alcohol?," pinakawalan niya ako bigla and she pinched her nose like she's trying to avoid my smell. "Dumbass!" bulong pa nito pero narinig ko naman.

I let out a laughed on her reaction.  "Do i really stinks so bad, my friend? Oh, I'm sorry! I missed to take a bath kasi kanina since i will be late on school if i do that routine pa, haha." I smiled wide.

"Tanga ka ba girl? Bakit ka pumasok ng hindi pa ligo at may tama ng alak?" at sinapok niya ako.

I gave her a death glare, because she just hit me. Such a violent friend! "Awtss! Ano't sinapok mo ako? My head hurts, you know, tapos dinagdagan mo pa, pshh!," mataray kong wika.

"Ayaw mo nun? Edi double dead ka kapag nagkataon, hehe", tapos ay kinuha nito bigla ang aking bag, then tumingin sa akin. "Tara, ang arte mo! I know a place. You need to sober up!,"at hinila na nga ako nito.

Nagpunta kami sa RJB House dito sa may Ermita. Buti nga nakalabas kami ng school, kasi kaclose ni Hazel yung guard. Konti lang din nilakad namin, kasi malapit naman ito sa Adamson kung saan kami nag-aaral. Finally, makakain na ulit ako ng lomi, mga ilang linggo na rin akong hindi napapagawi para kumain dito ihh.

Humanap ako ng isa sa mga bakanteng lugar, at umupo na rin makatapos. Tinitingan ko si Hazel mula sa counter na mukhang naorder na nga. I gulped my own saliva. I'm really starting to crave kasi alam kong sobrang sasarap ng pagkain dito plus marami pa. Solb na solb talaga!

After 10 minutes, dumating na rin si Hazel. Natatakam na agad ako sa mga pagkaing dala nito mula sa hawak na tray. Slurp!!

Nilapag na nito sa mesa iyon. "Oh, ayan senorita! Mainit na sabaw, nang ang alak sa iyong utak ay malusaw."

I pretended that i didn't heard what she said. Bahala siya dyan! Mas gusto ko ngayong malantakan ang lomi kaysa makipag-usap pa.

Sunod sunod ang naging pagsubo ko nun, kahit sobrang init talaga. Feeling ko nga namanhid na rin dila ko sa pagkakapaso. Bahala na kung magmukhang patay gutom pero effective naman ito para mahulasan ako.

"Letsugas ka! Dahan dahan lang ang pagkain baka mabilaukan ka, para kang hindi pinapakain sa inyo e," nakatitig na sabi sa akin ni Hazel.

Hinawakan ko naman ang sulyaw para higupin ang natitirang sabaw.
"Luhmehh." I uttered after i finish to sip the broth, i hold my tummy as i felt satisfied and full.
