I guess it's 7:00 in the evening, and here we are, nakatambay sa tabing dagat habang nasa ilalim ng ningning ng buwan. Mas maliwanag pa nga ito kumpara sa ilaw.

Iginala ko ang aking mga mata at ngayon ko lang napagmasdan ang ganda kung nasaan kami ngayon.

May ilang cafe na madadaanan bago ka makapunta sa tabing dagat, there was also a souvenir store and a lot of food chains.

Nakahilera lahat 'yon at may ilang bahagdan pababa bago ka makapunta sa tabing dagat.

Pero pagbaba mo ay may ilang nagtitinda ng mga keychains, may food stalls din at mga drinks. Ang ganda rito, lalo na kanina noong may sunset.

At ngayong gabi, mas lalo pa itong gumanda. The pine trees have lights around their bodies. The pathway we walked onto is spectacular, kasi may ilaw rin sa gilid nito. Akala ko nga totoong flowers ang nandoon but I was wrong — it was a solar-led flower, including tulips, sunflowers, roses, and others that I'm not familiar with. Mas kaaya-ayang pagmasdan.

I smiled, sobrang ganda. I want to roam around.

"Oy! baka matunaw!" Tala jokingly shouted and I was confused kaya nilingon ko sila.

I saw Katniss looking at me.

"Yung yelo kasi, tara shot na," sabat naman ni Nix.

"Is it allowed here? The alcohol, I mean," sabi ko at inayos ang upo dahil naka short lang ako.

"Of course it is, umiinom ka ba?" Tanong ni Katniss while her eyes are settled on me.

Sino ba ang aayaw sa alak, hello? Aminin man o hindi kahit wala ka pa sa legal age nag-iinom ka na. But it doesn't mean you have the right to do whatever you want.

You need to be mindful even we had freedom.

"I tried to, pero ayoko." I said.

"She shouldn't, we shouldn't. I'll get some juice." Sorin said at tumayo para pumunta sa malapit na stalls para bumili.

"Can you get me an iced coffee too? Thank you, Sorin." I'm thinking about trying to drink again but I don't want to break my lola's trust.

"Tama 'yan, you could also get some snacks. " Yuryne said at tumungga ng isang baso. Siniko nalang ito ni Katniss.

That girl is unbelievable, unang shot puno agad.

Tumango naman si Katniss. I wonder if may problema si Yuryne, looking at her parang laging galit sa mundo.

We drank, we sang, and we enjoyed the night all along.

"Don't try those alchol." Sabi ni Katniss at mukhang may pag-aalala ang mukha.

Hindi ko akalain na maganda rin pala ang boses ni Katniss, I was amazed. Her voice was slightly deeper compared to mine. Pero hindi ako magaling kumanta, galing galingan lang.

Tinignan ko ang paligid at kami nalang ata ang natitirang tao rito it was quarter to 11.

"Saan ka pupunta, Sea?" It was Yuryne, and Katniss gaze suddenly fell in my direction.

"Wiwi lang," I picked up Katniss' cardigan and wore it. Three sets of the Bar Pink, 1 vodka, and now alfonso. The heck.

"Walwal now, sira atay nila later," pabulong kong sabi habang tinatahak ang daan papunta sa comfort room.

Si Sorin at Tala ay nauna na sakanilang kwarto, habang si Surea ay nandon pa kasama si Serius, Nix, Yuryne, and Katniss.

"Hindi na ako magstay ng ganitong oras." Hindi ko na maituloy ang sinasabi ko sa sarili ko dahil sa kaaa uniting takot na nararamdaman. I heard a small laugh or guni-guni ko lang?
