WISH

MY FIRST KISS happened when I was 13.

Gabi noon nang maisipan namin ni Blaise na gumawa na naman ng kalokohan. We're indeed partners in crime.

We sneaked inside my Dad's wine room. Meron kasi isang room sa mansion namin kung saan nakalagay ang iba't-ibang klase ng wine and other alcoholic drinks from different countries.

"Woah, I can't believe we got in!" the fourteen-year-old Blaise cheerfully whispered.

"Sshh!" I shushed him, placing my index finger on his lips.

To be able to get inside, you have to type a serial of numbers first, it was like a passcode but more complicated. Dahil na rin sa training and natural skills, we were able to hack the code.

"This place is awesome!" I said, rasing my thumbs up as Blaise assessed the bottles one by one. He was carrying a small flashlight with him since we didn't turn on the lights dahil we might get caught.

The place was enormous, and the ceiling was so high it would be impossible to reach it. I silently gaped at the ceiling dahil may mga sparkling stars ang nandoon.

I requested  na palagyan ang lahat ng ceiling sa mansion ng glow in the dark stars because I like forming random constellations when I was younger but I didn't expect na pati rito ay gano'n rin.

"Let's try this, kid." Blaise whispered, raising a bottle of wine in front of my face.

"Hm, Mom and even Walter never permitted me to drink alcohol," I smirked. "I want to taste it!"

Blaise sat down and leaned on the shelf of wine. I did the same beside him.

Kinuha ko ang beret ko at kinuha ang maliit na shot glass na kinuha ko kanina sa kitchen.

"Let's tryyyy!" I squealed. "You try it first though!"

Blaise nodded his head and poured down the wine in the shot glass. "This wine is from France."

I can't help but let out a laugh. "Bonsoir!"

Blaise grabbed the shot glass and smirked before drinking the wine. He finished it with one shot!

"Ohhhh! Feisty!" he commented. "This one is awesome! The best wine I've ever tasted!"

I rolled my eyes heavenwards. "That's the first wine you've ever tasted. Tito Blair won't let you drink wine as well!"

He cracked a laugh and ruffled my hair. "Right."

Nilagyan niya ulit ng wine ang shot glass at pinuno 'yon. He then handed it to me with a smirk.

"Your turn, kid."

Inabot ko naman ang shot glass and heaved a heavy sigh before drinking it. I looked up at the ceiling and smiled upon seeing the twinkling stars.

"Here we go!" I screamed and drank the wine.

I can hear Blaise cheering on me habang inuubos ko ang laman ng shot glass. When I finally finished, I felt my head spin around.

"H-Hey! Kid! Are you alright?" Blaise asked, concern was visible on his face.

I lightly slapped my temple but I felt nauseous still. I suddenly had the urge to laugh like some kind of lunatic.

"HE-HE-HE!" I chuckled, pinching Blaise's cheek.

Airplane's eyes grew wide. "Hey, are you drunk?! Shit, you sure do have a low tolerance in alcohol!"
