CHINKY's POV
The music inside the bar was loud. My new friends and I went to a bar to celebrate. The bar offered many awesome drinks and tasty foods. It was kinda expensive but i was excluded in paying the bills, so, i can order whatever i want.
There were also many handsome and wealthy men inside with their lovely pairs. This is the first time I went inside a bar, the smell of liquors were all around but it wasn't stinky.
I am with Tanya, Evelyn, Sarah, Lair, Josa and Jowi, our team is complete except for Ms. Lucila, she didn't get along because she was busy with her family.
I was shocked with the entrance fee just a while ago, the male crew said it was five hundred pesos per head, and drinks weren't included yet.
"I would love to have juice because i don't drink alcholic beverages." I said to Tanya who had been ordering our drinks.
Because alcohol makes me uglier, when I drink and get drunk, I become — Goddess — char! I become a freak, just like what happened years ago. My classmates had invited me for a drink and to be part of their circle of friends, I had to drink the beer they were giving me, until I lost my sanity.
Back to the present, the rest of the group started to dance on the dance floor, leaving me, Tanya, Sarah and Evelyn alone at the table. The music was really loud. My heart seems to go along with the loud speaker.
"Hey Chinky, try this one." Tanya brought me a glass of drink.
"Nah, I don't drink alcoholic beverages." I smiled. I am quickly drunk with just a little percent of alcohol.
"Come on Chinky, just one shot. This is your welcome party, so, let's party party. " She insisted.
"Yes!" Evelyn added.
I really don't want to but just to give them some, I took that glass with me. This is free, all right, and I'll drink this as a thank you . One shot granted. And my eyes widened when i savoured the bitter taste of the beverage! My soul seemed to be separated from my body.
Oooh, heaven! Wait, this is an alcohol, not a drug. Argh! I began to feel dizzy.
"One more!" They said at once. Then handed the shot glass to me.
"Fine! This will be the last, okay?" I said before taking out the glass. I feel like I'm drunk even though I only drink two glasses. I was shaken. My head was so light. Is there an earthquake with magnitude of 10.5? I am so dizzy!
I excused myself and went to the comfort room because i felt nauseated and my head was spinning round and round. I vommited everything i have eaten a while ago.
It's like I could no longer open my eyes and felt so sleepy. My eyelids are falling off. When I arrived at our table, my companions were gone, I was in a dazed and looked around to find them.
I went to the dance floor to look for my friends but I couldn't see them. Where have they been? I went back to our table to wait for them.
"Excuse me ma'am, those who were with you earlier said that they were going home first." I heard the waiter approaching me.
"Is that so?" They didn't even wait for me, but they probably got drunk too, so they couldn't say goodbye to me. I was about to leave when the waiter stopped me.
"Five thousand eight hundred pesos, that's all your bill, ma'am." He said. I blinked again. What is that again? "Five thousand eight hundred pesos, that's your whole bill, Ma'am." Repeated by the waiter when I didn't answer right away.
Wait, does it charge on me? Suddenly my eyes widened. I feel like my mind is suddenly awake.
"Wait! A-Am I paying the bill?" No way! Is this a joke? Where can I get such amount at this time? I thought Tanya and the others would treat me?
"Just wait, my friends might come back, let's just wait." I said.
But I have a feeling that they will never come back. I swallowed hard. What will I do? I am a dead meat!
"Well, they said you will gonna pay for your bills. So, please pay, if you don't want me to call our Manager." The waiter scolded me.
I quickly opened my wallet and saw that I only got twenty peso bill. But what do I do now? Help!
It looks like a superhero is coming to help me, right? I was crying.
My eyes widened because of the idea that I might suddenly be taken here to dance as a GRO, in exchange for our drinks. No way! I love my pride.
"Look, there is a UFO!" As I pointed to the lamp.
The waiter also looked there, I was about to flee when two huge creatures suddenly intercepted me. They are bouncers. And at this rate, maybe they'll just hit me and I'll be dead.
"Is there a problem here?" Asked by the newcomer.
"Manager, this woman drank a lot and even invited her friends, and now she have no money to pay for the bill." The waiter told the manager.
No way! I didn't drink much nor did invite my friends, because they invited me. I could flip this waiter up, not knowing the whole story.
"Oh, Sir, I don't really have any money right now because my friends told me that they will exclude me in paying the bills, but they left me. "I said, but because of the loud music we had to shout the words.
"Miss, if you don't pay for your bills, you just have to explain this to the police officers in the precinct!" Said the Manager. And I'm going to be locked up? No way!
"Why do I have to explain in the precinct, when i can explain everything to you?" I said. But the Manager seems annoyed. "Promise, I don't have that amount with me, can you just list it as a debt? I promise to pay it montly. " I couldn't help but think that way, I was in tears.
"What?" The Manager sarcastically laughed, including his huge bouncers and their monkey-looking waiter. My headache doubled.
I was so consumed with frustration that suddenly an idea popped into my mind. What if I pretented to be fainted? Maybe I can escape— naaaah, still no use because when I wake up I will surely see and still see them.
Why Tanya did this to me? I snorted. I'm really crying, promise! Nanay! I silently cried. I feel like this day has been so long for me. I don't even have jinx birth mark on my butt but why am I having a bad day?
"Wait, Sir, you might have a cellphone, I'll just make a call, I don't have any cellphone load right now, or if you like, just load up my number. "
Who would I call? I didn't have much friends or acquiantances who have much money. And I don't want to bother calling Nanay because of this. Hu-hu. I don't know what to do!
CHRYSLER's POV
The people behind me were noisy as hell! Are they keeping up with the loud music? Argh!
I don't know why all of a sudden I was listening to the noise behind me and curiously turned my back. Then I stopped drinking my beer when I met a familiar woman in front of four men. Looks like I really know that little girl with full bangs — Chinky?
Yeah! It's Chinky! What is she doing here at this time? It's eleven o'clock! She was obviously drunk because of the way she looked! But still, she really speaks like a giant person. Tsk.
I was curious, so I didn't even realize that I was walking closer to them, to find out what they were arguing about. And as I approached, I heard them talking about paying bills.
"I was just invited here and i don't have that kind of huge amount with me."Chinky said to the men she was talking to.
It looks like she was tricked by her colleagues. She had tears in her eyes. Oh, poor kid. I shook my head. Wait, why did I feel sorry for her? Yeah, right! I am kind to the poor.
"Jeric, Jeron, take that girl and bring her to the precinct!" Ordered by the man in suit to his bouncers, then they carried Chinky like a stray cat. I didn't realize I was moving to block them.
"Just a moment!" I held back.
Wait, and when did I become this woman's savior? Whereas she still owe me big time!
"And who are you?" The suit-wearing man asked.
Chinky was staring at me. Her eyes widened and blinked as if acknowledging who I was. Annoying! Doesn't my face look attractive and one of a kind?
This woman is really a trouble maker. And my conscience would not allow her to be imprisoned because it would be a bad publicity for my company.
"Oh, Mister Coffee thief!" She saluted on me.
Finally, she recognized me. But she's still calling me a Coffee thief! I told her not to call me that! Hey! Should I just leave this woman here?
I was shocked when she suddenly lost the grip of the bouncers and hid behind me.
"They want me to pay five thousand eight hudred pesos, I didn't even enjoy the drinks," she told me.
I sighed. In the first place, why did she come along with her colleagues when she didn't even know them much? Poor creature.
"Whatever!" I told her and then I turned to the bar manager. "Here's the payment of her bills including mine." I said. As I reached Seven thousand pesos to them, I pulled the woman out of the bar.
"You're my superhero!" She said happily. Then she hugged me tightly.
I was stunned for a moment of silence. I felt the electrifying thing that ran into my veins, so I pushed her right away. She almost fell down but i grabbed her hand fast before it was too late and when she stood well, i let her go. What was that strange feeling though?
"I did this because I don't want a bad publicity on my company and please don't dare to drink when you can't even drink." i preached.
But she was intoxicated with alcohol and couldn't understand my words. I heaved a sigh. I was heading to the parking lot where my car was, when I noticed that she was following me.
"Why are you following me?" I asked her.
I shook my head when I saw her knock down on the floor. Argh! My damn conscience wouldn't let me live if ever something happened to her.
Again and again, I shook my head in frustration. I carried her, put her on the passenger seat and fixed the seatbelt. Damn! If you were hit by a series of misfortunes, really! Tsk.
Wait, what's her home address? I turned to her to ask the address, but all i hear was a very loud snore from her. Oh my, she's dead asleep! Oh, man! I messed my hair. Where should I bring her?
"Hey! What is your home address?" I asked her while tapping her shoulder.
At each turn, her response was snoring. My bad luck! I rubbed my hand on my face, it's a NO CHOICE! Yeah, I've decided to take her home with me.
WHEN we got to the Condo parking lot, I took off my suit and wrapped it up to her, so that no one could see her. Why do I have to hide her? Annoying! This is the hardship of being good samaritan. I sighed.
