2106 Words
Xaviar cannot deny the handsomeness of Lucas; he nervously put the coffee on the table with his shaking hands. Lucas looked at Xaviar through the tinted Gucci glass—Lucas chuckled and Xaviar lose his focus, suddenly pour some drops of coffee near the diary of Lucas.
“OH!” the modulate shock of Lucas got Xaviar uneasy. “S-S-Sorry Luca—oh I mean Sir” Xaviar took a deep breath then, concentrate himself. He walked away from the table and go to his area while taking a glimpse sa ginagawa ni Lucas.
Grabeng kaba ang naramdaman ni Lucas sa muntikang pagdampi ng kape sa kaniyang diary. “Di ko alam ang gagawin kung matatapunan ka ng kapeng ito” naiiyak na sabi ni Lucas habang hinihimas ang pahina ng kaniyang diary sa ibabaw ng lamesa.
Xaviar worriedly go to the table of Lucas then offered a tissue to him. Ang amoy ng kape sa lamesa ay naka-agaw ng atensiyon ni Lucas at kinuha ang tissue sa kamay ni Xaviar. Nanlaki ang mata ni Lucas sa paghawak ni Xaviar sa kaniyang kamay.
Napaka-lambot ng kaniyang kamay at sakto ang laki. Napatulala nalang si Lucas habang pinunasan ang isang talsik ng kape sa ibabaw ng kaniyang diary. Di nakagalaw ng daliri si Lucas sa pag punas ni Xaviar dito at naiwan ang kaunting marka ng kape sa blangkong pahina.
“My fault I’m so sorry” Xaviar sincerely apologized to Lucas with his pleasing eyes and husky voice. Di makatingin si Lucas sa kaniyang mata at tuluyan nang umalis sa kaniyang harapan. The heartbeat in Lucas chest was pounding like crazy because of Xaviar.
He clenched his fist and get his pen beneath the table, open up his diary and stare on the blank page.
Lucas took a deep breath before holding his pen before stroking some letters. Kinakabahang nagnakaw ng tingin si Lucas kay Xaviar na nasa puwesto niya at sa kaniyang pagtingin ay saktong nagnakaw din ng sandali si Xaviar. Dahilan kung bakit inalis agad ni Lucas ang kaniyang titig dito.
Lucas blushed and turn his cheeks reddish in color; napalunok nalang si Lucas sa kaniyang nagawa at nagsulat sa kaniyang diary.
Dear Diary,
Ganito ba magsimula ang pagtingin mo sa isang tao? Yung tipong bakit sa dalawang iisang araw ko palang dito ay siya na agad ang nakikita ko? Nagkataon lang ba ito o sadyang tadhana na? Lord, I am not gay pero damn! He is so handsome for me.
Lucas closed the diary and picked up his phone to video call to Aura. Ilang saglit lang ay sumagot agad ito.
“Hey what is up?” Auro greeted him cheerfully
“Hey, I will go to triple A club this night”
“Triple A? diba sa kalakang manila yun? Paano ka makaka-uwi mamaya eh malayo ang bahay mo?”
“Don’t worry! I have a key here”
Lucas shows the key to Aura and happily smiled to the camera, Xaviar looked to Lucas and watched him smile. Xaviar felt some kind of unusual sensation inside his chest and turn his look away.
“Aura, I will show you something be quiet”
“What is it?”
Lucas turn the camera from front to back and zoom a little bit to Xaviar na naglilinis ng lamesa. Biglang natulala si Aura sa kaniyang nakikita sa camera.
“Who is that?!” Biglang napasigaw si Aura at nakakuha ng atensiyon ng mga tao paligid. Lucas froze on his chair and immediately turn the line off.
It is an awkward moment that makes Lucas chills from his backbone, kinuha niya ang kaniyang diary at humigop ng kape. Xaviar and the other staff looked at him. Mabuti nalang at meron siyang sunglasses at di halata ang kaniyang mata na sobrang napahiya.
“Oh my gosh Aura! Why did you shout?”
“Hey, Sorry ang gwapo kasi napasigaw ako. Btw what is his name?”
“I don’t know”
“Bakla ka! Baka mamaya pag-uwi mo ng Aklan may keme kana ha!”
“Baliw! Di tang mag nubyo no” (ayaw ko mag-boyfriend)
“sulitin mo na ang araw mo ngayon you will be back tomorrow. 5:00 pa naman flight mo diba?”
“Yes, I will go at 2 PM the traffic is so annoying. Out na ako”
”Pakilala mo ako sa kaniya ha! Bakla ka”
Lucas turned off his data then close his messenger. Lucas is not active on f*******: as he is always seeing fake news and trolls all over the application. He stands up and exactly five in the afternoon, he leaves the starbucks then got to his condominium in six sharp.
It was an exhausting day for Lucas so he get himself some sleep. After an hour of his sleep, he wears a new shirt right in his bag then eat some pizza that he ordered buy from a restaurant nearby. He looks at himself at the mirror.
Taking some picture and post on his i********: account gaining some whooping thousands of likes in just some minutes. Sikat si Lucas sa mga babae lalo na kinakabaliwan siya, pero may isang nag hohold back sa kaniya.
He is shy na malaman ng iba ang tungkol sa kaniyang loslos. Lucas was a brave man pero pagdating sa kaniyang sakit ay bumabahag ang kaniyang buntot.
“Am I gay? Or bi?” he confusingly asked himself.
He bit his fingers thinking if he is one of the bisexuals. “No, bibigyan ko pa ng apo si Mom” he chuckled at sinara na ang pinto.
He gets himself a grab taxi to go to Triple A club, upon arrival the security was strict and surely rich people goes to this bar.
The blinding lights around the dance floor, ang nakakabinging tunog na halos pumutok na ang eardrums sa sobrang lakas at amoy ng mga alak na halo-halo ang taning nararamdaman ni Lucas sa kaniyang pag-iisa.
He grab his phone at nagpost sa kaniyang story sa i********:.
Triple A everyone!
Aura messaged him at binuksan niya agad ito.
“Bukas club tayo ulit”
“Oh sure no problem”
“I will just hang-out with random people here”
Lucas scrolled on his i********: account and search for something specific.
What is his surename? Xaviar?
Lucas search Xaviar at ang daming lumabas na mga artista and even some caviar eggs on his i********:. Lucas was pissed off then turn off his phone. Lucas sighed then goes to the bar to buy a Blue Hawaii for his drink tonight; it was a sick night at ang music pa ay parang pang-adik.
“Hey, can I seat with you?” isang boses ang narinig ni Lucas kaniyang tabi at may babaeng lumutang. “Hello, have a drink” sabi ni Lucas sa babae at tinawag ang waiter.
“Same as his” utos ng babae sa kaniya at gumawa ang waiter nito saka ibinigay.
“Cheers”
“By the way, still schooling?” The woman asked Lucas at tumango lang ito sabay ng paghigop ng alak.
“What year are you now… ahh let me guess; hmmm—are you a third year?”
“Yes” Lucas responded and they both chuckled.
“San ka nag aaral ngayon?” Another question escaped from the mouth of the woman.
“U.P College of Medicine” Lucas replied humble to the woman at napa-wow ito sa kaniya.
“Cheers for your school! Hey! Alam mo bang malapit lang dito yan isang sakayan lang nandun kana. Goodluck from your course. If you mind you want to join us?”
“Us?” Lucas asked in confusion
Tinuro ng babae ang isang couch na merong tatlong tao nan aka-upo at nag kukwentuhan. The woman grabbed Lucas at sumunod lang ito sa kaniya.
“Look what I got Girls!” sigaw ng isang babae sa tatlong naka-upo at nanlaki ang mga mata nila sa pagkakita kay Lucas.
“A golden fish in the pond!” sigaw ng isang babae pero ang kaniyang sigaw ay parang normal lang na salita dahil sa lakas ng tunog.
Pina-upo ng isang babae si Lucas at inabutan ng isang sliced lime. Inabot naman ito ni Lucas at kinuha ang sumunod na tequila sa mababang volume na nakalagay sa shot glass.
Tumingin mula si Lucas sa mga mukha ng apat na babae at nung namukhaan na niya ito ay ininom niya ng diretsiyo ang tequila at sinipsip ang lime kasama ng asin.
“WOOOHH!” Sigaw ng isang babae at nilagyan niya ng tequila ang baso ng bawat isa.
“For this handsome man.. sino kanga ulit?” nalilito niyang tanong
“Lucas po”
“TO LUCAS! CHEERS!”
Sumasabay sa napakalakas na tunog ang kanilang sigaw sa mahigit isang oras na inuman. Hanggang niyaya na nila si Lucas sa dance floor.
“EVERYBODY FOR THE NEXT DOCTOR OF OUR COUNTRY! LUCAS!” halos mapaos ang babae sa kaniyang kakasigaw at naka-agaw ito ng atensiyon ng madaming tao sa paligid. Tinulak ng babae na meron nang tama si Lucas sa gitna ng dancefloor at sumayaw sila sa bawat indak ng tugtog.
“FOR LUCAS EVERYONE!” Sigaw ng isang lalaki na may dalang wine at pinaputok sa dancefloor, it is dangerous as it will cause an accident but they don’t bother to think about pre-cautions.
The wine goes to the open mouth of random people especially to Lucas. The sweet taste of Champagne originated from Champagne region of Europe cost some silver but the man just wasted it on the dance floor.
“DANCE EVERYBODY!” sigaw ng isang babae at nagsihataw ang kanilang mga katawan sa musika ng DJ.
Lucas dance like there was no tomorrow, despite he will have a flight. May lumapit na babae sa kaniya at sinayawan siya ng todo. Her but touched the crotch of Lucas and it makes him blush, Lucas holds the tummy of the girl and sway to the beat.
It was making him hard, di na inda ng mga tao ang kabastusang nangyayari sa dance floor dahil lasing na ang iba; hanggang mas diniin ng babae ang pagdikit dito. The cuts of her butt aroused Lucas and it already makes him pre-c*m.
Hinatak ni Lucas ang babae sa dancefloor at sumayaw ng husto, ilang saglit lang ay iba na ang pakiramdam ni Lucas. Hinila siya ng babae sa isang tabi na wala halos tao hanggang hinawakan ang kaniyang mukha.
“Do you want a kiss?” The girl asked exhausting from the dance floor.
“Why not?” Lucas replied with his naughty voice.
Lucas torrid the girl and the body sensation was arousing that the girl put her hand on the zipper of Lucas, nakakapa niya ang isang napaka-tigas na alaga nito.
“Not here, just a kiss right?” Lucas asked sarcastically to the girl. The girl smiled between their kisses at kinagat ang ibabang labi ni Lucas.
“Careful my lips are precious to bite” Lucas chuckled and slit his tongue inside the mouth of the girl.
Hinatak ng babae si Lucas at sa nahihilong pakiramdam sumunod lang ito sa kaniya. Only to find out na ang babaeng naka-halikan niya ay ang kasama ng babaeng humatak sa kaniya sa bar. The girl’s age is similar to him; Lucas looked carefully to her at isang napaka-gandang babae ang kaniyang nakikita.
“You are beautiful” sabi ni Lucas sa nalalasing na boses.
“May tama kana yata, lakas mo uminom ng tequila kanina” natatawang sagot ng babae sa kaniya at kumuha ng isang shotglass at kaunting tequila. It is already Nine in the evening but Lucas does not bother, hanggang ang baso ni Lucas ay hinaluan ng babae ng isang drug na nakalagay sa kaniyang mahabang kuko.
The girl smiled at him and offered a glass of tequila to Lucas. Dahil na din sa magugulong ilaw at naduduling na paningin di napansin ni Lucas ang powder na nakahalo sa kaniyang inumin at tinunga ito hanggang sa walang matirang patak sa shotglass.
“CHEERS AGAIN!” Sigaw ng babae kay Lucas pero umayaw na ito di dahil sa di na niya kaya kundi sa paningin niyang nagdadalawa na. Ang amoy ng alak at ang sigaw ng mga tao na sumasayaw ay nagbibigay ng sakit ng ulo kay Lucas.
“I-I-Will go h-home” Nauutal na tugon ni Lucas.
Inalalayan ng babae si Lucas pababa ng hagdan at nakakaya pa ni Lucas na maglakad.
“It is okay, kaya kong umuwi I will just get a grab” utos ni Lucas at iniwan siya ng babae sa labas kasama ng guard.
He get his phone and get a grab taxi approaching to his direction. The driver texted that he has a passenger and same as his destination. The blurred eyesight of Lucas makes him agree to the driver. Lucas cannot hear what the guard is saying to him and even see them; the drug was taking over his body.
Hanggang dumating na ang grab taxi at di nakikita ni Lucas ang pinto hanggang may lumabas na lalaki mula sa passenger seat at inalalayan siyang sumakay. Lucas cannot see the man that is helping him instead just go inside and sleep.
“Hey, Hey! Are you Okay?” Sinampal sampal ni Xaviar ang mukha ni Lucas at nagtanong ang driver kung paano makaka-uwi ang lalaking kasama niya.
“Kuya, sa lugar ko nalang kilala ko ho ito” Utos ni Xaviar at nagsalita si Lucas.
“At the Crane Condominium please” sabi nito at tumuyan nang nakatulog sa balikat ni Xaviar.
Crane Condominium? Do not tell me you are on that place too?
