"Another shot please."
"Another four shots actually."
"Let's get wasted, bitches!" Rae cheerfully said.
"Geez guys, calm down, no one's having a drinking competition," I said to them and drank the liqour in my glass, "This is the first time we didn't drag you out so we're celebratin'!" Aish, these girls really.
We're here in a club, but we're in a private room, because obviously, there will be paparazzi.
"Whatever," I replied as I rolled my eyes, "I'll just be at the washroom," while heading my way there, I'm just thinking of one word, or one name. Issa.
After doing my business in the washroom, I washed my hands, of course, when someone tapped me on my shoulder. Paglingon ko, nakita ko ang isang babae. Simple lang siya, nakajeans at puting damit.
"Yes?" I asked her "U-uhm you d-dropped your wal-wallet," she stuttered and handed me 'my wallet' while her head hung low. I didn't bring any wallet.
"Pardon?" I asked while studying her.
"Y-you dropped your wallet, m-miss," she answered me, obviously faking her 'stuttering', "Oh, sorry. I didn't notice," I said and extended my arm cautiously to get it. "They're right, you're not just rude, but greedy, too," ngumisi siya at hinablot ang kamay kong 'di pa naaabot yung wallet then she shoved me to the wall with my arm behind my back. I'll admit, it kinda hurts but I'm used to it because my sister always did this to me when she was training me like years ago. 
"W-what do you mean?" I acted like I was scared. Gosh. "You're coming with me, Ms. Cervantes, you'll pay for what you did to my brother!" she shouted, "What?" 
"Don't play dumb now, I know you ordered your men to kill my brother," she stated. The hell? I didn't order anyone, I did it myself. "Tangina naman oh," I mumbled before I broke free from her grip on my arm and switched our positions. "Who sent you?" I said while tightening my grip on her arm behind her back as I pushed her harder to the wall, "Ha! I'm not telling you anything!" she tried to break free pero mas lalo ko lang diniinan, "Couz!"
"What are you doing here?"
"Hey! Aein! Help me!" The girl struggled, "You know this girl?" I asked my cousin.
"Yeah, sorry about this. I told her to follow you because, as you know, you're on top of our list," he explained, damn.
"What the hell, Laura!"
"I know! I'm sorry, okay? Alam mo naman kung ano ginagawa ko hindi ba?"
"Fine, whatever."
"Hello?! Aein?!" The girl still tried to break free but I still tightened my grip, "Shoot her."
"What?! What is she talking about Aein?!"
"We need her couz, and shut your mouth for the meantime Nica."
"And why would we need her?" I raised an eyebrow as I emphasized the word we.
"Make her sleep first," I did what I was told and she carried her after. Iginiya ko siya sa kung saan kami kanina, at binuksan ang pinto.
"Good thing you finally came," Kar said.
"I ran into someone and took care of some business," I replied, "Who? Oh, Laura, its you," Kar bitterly said. Here we go again. "Hi baby!" my whore of a cousin winked, "Who's that you're carrying?" Oops.
"Oh, that's the business. Laura, explain."
"You know that I'm undercover, right? She's my partner there, she's the younger sister of the guy that Shy here, eliminated," she started explaining, "We eventually became friends. Just friends, don't worry," dagdag niya nang titigan siya ni Kar. Pfft, under.
"Just friends? Kar, I don't believe him," Rae smirked and both me and Chlis just laughed, "Hey! She's just a friend, alright?" Laura defended herself, "Wait, wait, are you two together? Like together-together?" Chlis asked while doing gestures with her hands. I looked at my friend and my cousin. This should be good.
"No."
"Yes."
"What?" they exclaimed in unison. "I thought we're official already?" Laura asked Karla, "No, I said we will be, but not now. I'm still working on it, okay?" Karla explained, "But you said-" naputol naman ang sasabihin ng pinsan ko, "I know, I know. But we'll get there, okay? You'll be patient with me, right?" Laura just sighed before nodding.
"Okay, okay. Continue," I intervened bago pa mapunta sa kabilang mundo ang usapan.
"She kinda looks up to me so her father assigned me to train her, only the basics by the way, and be her partner. She's not that bad, she's just influenced by her parents and brother. We just have to make her understand, and make her side with us. The only problem is–"
"If she dies or go missing, her dad will definitely kill both of us," I interfered. "Yes", she answered.
"I don't even care, you take care of her," sabi ko katapos kong agawin ang alak mula kay Rae at ininom iyon. She didn't complain naman. "Should I inform your dad?," she asked, "You could, but I suggest you tell Ate Nash, and maybe take her to the place then."
"Okay, good enough," she agreed, "I'll be leaving now, don't drink too much girls. And can I borrow Karla for a while?" all of us turned our heads to Kar, as if asking for permission, she then sighed and took her bag after she stood up and fixed her outfit of the day, or should I say night. Lumapit naman ang magaling kong pinsan kay Karla at inakbayan siya tsaka iginaya palabas ng private room. "Use protection!" I heard Rae shouting, who's obviously drunk, and Chlis was cheering so I did, too. Akala ko ba night out namin 'to? "Girls!" Kar warned na nagpatawa na lang sa'min. "Oh, and Shy, I called some of my men and they'll be picking up Nica there," she pointed the girl, "And escort you back to your condo," dagdag niya. Paalis na sana sila nang may maalala ako, "Laura, why did she call you "Aein"?" I asked, she then turned around, "That's my codename, what I use when I'm with them," she answered. Napatango na lang ako.
"Okay, now go bago pa ako mabitter," I shooed them and they left na. "So what will we do with her?" Chlis asked, referring to the girl, "I'll just move her to the couch over there and we'll have fun, of course, while waiting for Laura's men," I explained. Napatingin ako sa puwesto ni Rae, at nakita ko ang gaga na sunod sunod ang inom. Jusko, she's a mess pa naman when she's drunk. "Don't worry about her, I'll take care of her while you take care of Laura's colleague," I nodded at what she said. After I settled the girl at the couch, Chlis suddenly spoke, "Valentine," I was confused at first, "Valentine is the meaning of Aein," she continued. "How'd you know?"
"It's Korean."
"Oh, that's Laura's second name, Valentine. Laura Valentine Rossi," I explained, napatango na lang siya at nagpatuloy sa pag-inom, tinabihan ko naman siya at sinabayan. 
We continued drinking while talking lang hanggang sa may kumatok sa room namin. Pagtingin ko, nakilala ko naman kung sino. Mga tauhan ni Laura. Pinapasok ko naman sila at sinabi kung ano gagawin nila. Ginawa naman sila at sumusunod naman sila ng maayos. Binuhat ng isa sa kanila yung babae, while both Chlis and I helped each other to help Rae. While heading out, nagpaiwan yung dalawa sa tauhan ni Laura ang protected the three of us from people who are barfing, puking, dancing, anyone you see in typical clubs. When we reached the parking, I saw that the other two men were waiting for us at Rae's car. Kinuha ko naman ang susi mula sa buls ni Rae at lumapit sa sasakyan para buksan, what else would I do? Key it? Maybe, but not for now. Pagkabukas ko, binuksan ko ang backseat para dun ilagay si Rae at yung babaeng nagngangalang Nica. 
"You guys can go now," I said to Laura's men, "We were ordered to escort you until you get to your condo, miss," the guy in front said. Napatango na lang ako, "So we'll be driving first?" "Yes, miss," they answered in unison. They're well-disciplined, what can I say, Laura has a bad temper. That's why its a mystery to me kung paano niya nakakayang mag-antay kay Karla, not that I don't like Karla, nakakashock lang.
"Okay, drive safe you guys," I reminded them before opening the car door to the driver's seat, ako magdrdrive kasi ako yung kaunti lang nainom, mas maraming nainom si Chlis kesa sakin. But I stopped when I say Chlis in my seat. "Chlis, move over," I nudged her, "No, I'll drive, I'm sober," I sighed, "C'mon, you drank alcohol. Its safer if I drive alright?" I argued. "I know I drank alcohol, but I can still think straight. Remember when the four of us got drunk? I got all four of us home safely, and remember the last time you took the wheel? You almost crashed, so no. I'll be driving," she countered. Wala na akong nasabi at sa shotgun seat na lang umupo. Pagkapasok ko sa kotse, I glanced at the two women at the backseat. Maayos naman lagay nila kaya hinayaan ko na, at nagsimula nang magdrive si Chlis. Ano na kaya ginagawa nila Karla?
When we got home, the guys assisted us with the two women. I let Rae sleep in my bed while Nica occupy hers. After we got everything settled, tumabi na ako kay Rae. 
"What a long day," I mumbled, "I hope nothing goes wrong tomorrow," I said before closing my eyes. 
"Bitch, wake up," I groaned at whoever is speaking right now. "Shyrvielle!" I didn't budge, "If you don't come down any second, I'll be eating your food," I just groaned in response. 'Di na nagsalita kung sino man yung nagsasalita kanina, that's when I opened my eyes. "Anong oras na ba?" I glanced at the clock at my bedside table, "9:57? Too early," I mumbled before stretching the shit out of my muscles. I did my morning routine first, which consists of stretching, groaning, tossing and turning in my bed, washing my face and fix my hair. Pagkababa ko, nakita ko naman sila na nagkakagulo sa harap ng TV. 
"Give me the remote!"
"No! You chose what to watch last night, now I get to choose what to watch!"
"Quit it, you two!" 
"No! Just give me that goddamn remote!"
Reasse, Karla and Chlisté. The three crackheads. "Jeez, if I knew that you three will be this chaotic every morning, I should've moved out when you guys did. Too early for a Sunday to be this noisy, you know?" I said once I got to the bottom of the staircase. They looked at each other and continued fighting, the audacity of these wenches. 'Di ko na lang sila pinansin at dumiretso na sa kusina para kumain, or magluto kung wala mang pagkain na makakain. "Laura?" 
"Oh hey couz, good morning," she greeted. Laura and the girl, Nica, is having breakfast at my kitchen. Sabihin niyo lang kung lagi ba akong magkakaroon ng bisita dito araw araw kasi maghahanda ako lagi. "What time did you get here?"
"Quarter to 8 I think? I had to wake up early because of Sofia," she groaned. Sofia is Karla, that girl has a long name, Karla Sofia Isabella Leon Garcia. Her Mexican accent makes it sound better than it is though. "And what is she doing here?" I asked, pertaining to her colleague, "You brought her here, remember?" I looked at Laura seriously, "I already calmed her down, I explained everything to her, and I'll be taking her with me later, I was just waiting for you," she said before gulping, "Okay," after I said that, I headed towards the fridge and searched for something to eat. "So what's your plan?" napatingin naman ang pinsan ko sa'kin.
"I'll take her to Ynaush's place, and do what I should do," she said and signaled that she shouldn't say anything confidential because of this girl, "Alright."
"You'll kill me, right?" 
"I would, if you wouldn't behave. So if I were you? Don't do the same mistake your brother did," I firmly said before turning my back on them. Mag-oorder na lang ako ng pagkain.
