9 o’clock in the evening was the
call time of his party. I was feeling uneasy the whole day. I can’t pin point
the reason of the uneasiness but I’ll try to remember some of the highlights of
the party.
Three days before the D-day, he
invited me to come to his “Thanksgiving Party”. I asked him what we should be
thankful for? He said he was finally promoted as staff. That’s actually good
news for him but not for me. Promotion for him means no movement for me but
that doesn’t really bother me. He’s my mentor anyways.
I asked him if I could bring in some
friends. With that I mean, I’m gonna invite Gracing and Matwa. He actually doesn’t like Gracing that much. So
I’m practically teasing him when I said that. To my surprise he agreed and what
is shocking is..he even invited her personally.
Two days before, he invited me
again and I refused. I said I’m gonna visit a friend in Guagua which is true
but it’s not an urgent matter. I’m just enjoying see him act out and he’s
really funny when he does that.
A day before, we didn’t talk that
much cause he has some visitor in the unit. But when I’m about to go home he
didn’t let me go until I said yes. To think of it, I shouldn’t be so conscious
with all the attention he is giving me. I guess I can’t blame myself if I
intentionally misinterpret what he says and he does.
When you like someone, you become
less rational.
D-day came. It was just last
night. I went to T’s house because we agreed that we will go together. I went
there late afternoon. We watched some Glee episodes and talked about stuffs.
She even had some diarrhea episodes, probably because she is really excited to
see one person in the party who happens to be not present.
We arrived at the venue right on
time. A saw him with his girls. He didn’t even say hi but I’m already used to
it. We do that all the time. That night I was really on a drinking mode. I’ve
been sober for quiet a while and I wasn’t able to drink it out the time I was
stress. I tried all the cocktails he prepared I don’t care about the people. I
was sort of researching so I can choose the best drink on Friday (Ex-Jalysis
VNs Parteh).
Now, T observed that he is giving
me all the prepared cocktails which is nothing to me. I realized it’s one way
of getting my attention. I wanna recall all the quick conversation we had but I
couldn’t cause I got a little bit tipsy but here are some.
He said, “makatats”. He means he was
touched that we were present. T said my legs are smooth and supple. He said “patouch”.
We were about to go home when he complemented about my figure. He said ‘’sexy
napin eh”.
Those few words are enough to complete my night. I don't want too much of him..just enough is OK. I’m uncomfortable of him acting
kind and everything but I appreciate it a lot. He’s not really like that with
everyone.
He’s an ass but he can be the best mentor. He’s a jerk but he will tell thing honestly. He’s sarcasm is through the roof but that’s his
way to let you understand things easily. He can either ruin or make your day.
He is one heck of an eccentric guy that people may hate and love at the same
time.
