Chapter 5 - CHAPTER 5-A NIGHT OUT WITH FRIENDS

3 days after the leave

3 days after I took my leave ay bumalik na din ako sa pag tatrabaho.

"Ms. Ximenez?".  Pag lingon ko ay nasa tagiliran ko naka tayo si Trixie.

"Yes?". Tanong ko kaagad.

"I wanted to evite you on my birthday, everyone is coming so I hope you will come too".  Umalis din agad ito ng masabi saakin ang pakay niya.

If everyone is coming...I should.

At the party

"Cheers".  Trixie said as she raise her hand holding a glass of wine.

Her husband then stand up and stood by her side.

"Guys I want to thank all of you for taking care of my wife".  The look on his eyes looks so sincer it's as if he love her wife so badly.

Where can I get a man like that?

"To Mr. Gutierrez, I also wanted to thank you for hiring my wife and making her a regular in your office". Sambit pa nito.

"Your wife deserves it she's great at her job". Naka ngiting sagot ni Mr. Gutierrez.

I chug the beer that I was holding, crazy bastard that's who he was, nakaka init ng dugo sa tuwing nakikita ko ang lalaking iyon.

Nag patuloy kami sa pag iinom, nag sasayawan at halatang lasing na ang lahat.

Maka ilang oras din ang lumipas ay nauna ng magpa alam si Mr. Gutierrez sa kadahilanan na maagap pa ito bukas dahil sa meeting.

"Meeting ba talaga?". Bulong ko sa sarili ko.

At ilang minuto pa nga lang ang nakakalipas ay nag paalam na din si Marcus.

"Babe I'll go first I was so drunk I can't drive you home".  Pag papaalam nito saka humalik sa aking pisngi. Ngumiti lang ako at minasdan ang pag alis nito.

"Yeah you're so lucky". One of my co-worker said.

Lucky my foot, if I can only say it on everyone that he was cheating on me with Mr. Gutierrez they will probably be disgusted.

"Right, your boyfriend is so handsome and he looks so kind and caring". Sambit pa ng isa.

"If I were you I will marry him". Sabat bigla ni Trixie.

"He is a husband material". Dagdag pa nito sa statement nya.

"Well what can I do? He's not proposing yet". I said and just smiled.

1:00 a. m

The party finish exactly 1 am at medyo may tama na din ako ng alak.

Naka upo ako sa may gilid ng kalsada habang nag aabang ng taxi, sinasapo sapo ko ang ulo ko dahil sa sakit.

"Tangina napa sobra ata inom ko".

"Hindi lang ata Valeria kase napa sobra talaga". Napa lingon ako sa kinaroroonan ng boses at nakita ko si Lexi.

"You again?". Nag angat ako ng tingin at nakita ko na naka tabi ito sakin.

"I was also waiting for a taxi". Sambit nito.

"Really? or sinusundan mo lang ako?". What was I thinking and why would he do that.

"And if I was doing that what will you do?". Sandali akong natigilan sa sinabi nito.

"But why would you do that?". I asked.

"Who knows? Would you like to take a guess?". Tanong din ang isinagot nito sakin at hindi nalang ako umimik hanggang sa may dumaang taxi at sumakay na din lang kami.

Pagka dating na pagka dating ko sa bahay ay hindi na din ako nakapag hilamos o nakapag palit man lang ng damit dahil sa sobrang sakit ng ulo ko dala ng kalasingan ay naka tulog na din ako agad.

2:00 a. m

"Help me...please help, help me!".  Nagising akong hingal at may mabilis na tibok ng dibdib.

"I dream about my death again".  Simula ng maka balik ako sa taong pang kasalukuyan ay halos gabi-gabi kong napapanaginpan ang sarili kong pagka matay.

Bumangon ako agad at uminom ng tubig.

Hindi na din ako naka tulog at mag damag ng gising ng dahil sa nangyari.

Naisipan ko nalang din na manuod ng movies bilang pampalipas oras habang kumakain ng paborito kong snack which is big boy.

Simula pa man noon ay mahilig na ako sa Korean drama and that's what I'm watching now, Marry My Husband...ang weird pero sakto sya sa nangyari sakin ngayon she's also getting the same revenge as me na nag cheat ang asawa.

7:30 a. m

I prepared myself and pumasok na din sa work ko.

As usual I sat on my table at saktong pag upo ko naman ay lumapit sakin si Marcus, I lift my head as he placed a cup of coffee at my desk.

"Good luck today". He said, I smile but it immediately fades as I remember what I was here for.

He cheated on me, I need revenge that's what I need.

"Ms. Ximenez?". Napa lingon ako sa tagiliran ko ng marinig ko ang boses ni Monica.

"How was your feeling?". Napa taas kilay ko sa tanong nito.

"Well I'm fine why do you ask?". Tanong ko naman at nag umpisa na nga ang pag sasalita nito. Nakalimutan ko she's also talkative nga pala.

"Well, you were so drunk yesterday and you also almost throw up before you leave". I don't remember anything like that, I only remember leaving the party.

"Oh really, well I'm fine". Sambit ko at tumango lang ito saka ay binaling na ding muli amg atensyon nito sa kanyang ginagawa.

I didn't know I was that drunk.

10:22 a. m

I enter the women's lounge to go get some coffee to drink as I notice that someone was in there.

"Ms.Cooper, hi". I greet Lexi as I saw her drinking coffee, sitting at the bar.

"Don't you remember something?". Nag titimpla na ako ng kape ng tanungin ako ni Lexi dahilan para mapa lingon ako.

"Remember what?". I asked, as far as I know naka sabay ko lang sya maka uwi hindi kaya na sukahan ko sya?

Lumapit ito sakin saka kinuha ang tasang hawak ko at ini patong ito sa lababo...I was cornerd and was now leaning on the sink. I was confused, nervous, what did I do?
