CHAPTER 16 (2/2)

"Quite a few months now.."  she put some ice on her glass and pour some beer before sipping on it.

"How many siblings do you have?"

"I have a lot, six I think.  I'm the eldest daughter, my older brother has his own family now, so, I am the breadwinner."  she explained.

"You support the family of your brother too?"

"Not really, I'm just helping them."  she took another sip of her beer and munch some food.

"Is your mom and dad still together?"  he asked while munching on his food.

"No, they separated when I was six, so the rest of my siblings, aside from my older brother, are my half-brothers and sisters, weird isn't it?"  she told him, without looking at him or establishing eye contact.

"It must have been very hard for you."  he gulped the rest of his beer and took out a new one from the bag.

"Hey, do not drink too much, you might get drunk."  she advised while still eating the rest of her food.

"How does it feel when your parents separated, you're too young then.."

"I don't know, it's like what happened, what I did after that, seems normal, they are not really that close anyway so.. I can't say that it's really hard for me, though I really hope that they may still end up together, but.. it's like hoping for the crow to turn white."  she laughed lightly, he is just staring at her while opening the second can of beer.

"I am sorry.."

"You don't need to apologize, it happened for a very long time now, I'm used to it."

"Hmm.. do you have any questions for me??"

Erika looked at him and tilted her head.

"Hmm.. I want to ask something, but you may not answer it."

"Try me!"  he sipped his beer again.

"You might be offended, but I really wanted to know what happened, the.. scandal back in Jap~"

"It's not true..."  he stared at her with those panda eyes.

"I'm sorry for asking, I promise I won't disclose these things to any~"

"No need, I trust you.  Hmm.. I don't know how they come up with that.. but it's been hard for me and for us as well.  The incident in Hongkong is quite big too, Anna noona is drunk, well that's what I thought that's why I need to help her stand up and get her a cab, I haven't done anything with her, but you know how the media people thinks right?" he gulped the rest of his beer and get the third one.

"Yeah, I know, hey, that's your third can already, aren't you drunk?"  she pour the rest of the contents on her glass and gulped it as well.

"Not yet, that's my third can only, do you think I'm weak??" he laughed.

"I didn't say that, that will be enough, okay?  I never wanted to take of care of a drunk person, ever."

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine, you need to check yourself, YOU might get drunk!"

"I was never drunk,"  she then get her next can and poured some on her glass and gulped it.

"OH!!  Really, why don't we have a battle?  Let's check who can drink the most number of~"

"I won't do that, I only bought six, three for the both of us, we just wanted to drink a little not to lose ourselves." she said and she continued eating.  Seungri just laughed at her and continued eating and drinking as well.  Not long after, both of them finished their food and the cans of beer, Seungri stood up first and started clearing the table, he then noticed her..

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

What the hell?  Why am I dizzy?  I just drank 3 cans of beer, I know I can drink more, but why am I feeling like this?  I will try my best to show that I am not drunk.  Fuck, I can't believe I got drunk, I stood up from my seat slowly holding on to the back of the chair, I managed to stand up but the wave of giddiness struck me and everything went black.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

She said she never get drunk, what now?  She is lying on the floor, face front.  I can't help but laugh at her, but not in an insulting way.  I went near her and lift her up and carrier her on my back, she's tall and a bit chubby so I cannot carry her bridal style.  I placed her gently in the couch, I stared at her for a while.  I could feel something, my heart is beating mad and my cheeks are burning.  No, this can't happen, I only knew her for like, a day?  This is impossible.  I shook the thoughts away and proceed to the kitchen and cleared everything.  I wash the dishes and remove all the dirt on the table and on the floor.

I get back to the living room and saw her still lying on the couch in the same position.  No, I don't like her that way, she is not sexy, she's not even pretty, she's not my type.  She will be a very good friend though, I really find her nice and sweet.  I sat myself at the couch next to her as I watch her sleep.  I shook the thoughts away and without me knowing, I am in deep slumber.

MAY 24 2013

"I will go back???"  I almost shouted but managed to keep my voice down.

"Yeah, you need to, you may stay there for about a week, it will be longer, it's an emergency so you need to go there tonight."  my boss instructed.

"Tonight?  I was just there two days ago.. isn't it too early?  What exactly happened?"  I asked her, again.

"Nothing much, they just needed more people to work there, you'll get paid so no problem, you can go home now and fix your things, here's your ticket and the pocket money, have a safe flight!!"  she then stormed out of my office and slammed the door.

I scratched my head in annoyance, I should've stayed there and didn't go home, I just fooled myself and lost a lot of money.  Well, do I have any choice now?  I guess I just need to follow them.  I walked out of the office and dialed Kriselle's number.

"Hello unnie?"

"Kriselle?  Where are you?  Can you help me?  I need to pack up, I need to go back to Singapore tonight."

"Wae?  You just came back like 2 days ago??"  she answered.

"Yeah I know, they should've just let me stay there, are you coming or not?"

"I'll go, where are you now?"

"Let's meet at the mall near my dorm, arasseo?"

"Ne,~"  I turn off my phone and walked my way to the train station.
