Lahat ng Kabanata ng Love Made In Summer : Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

From chandeliers and wines to neon lights and vodkas. The once formal atmosphere is now turned into a party with booming music and people dancing with people. Brye was nowhere to be found, he was pulled away by Karlos earlier, letting me and Luke party around with the others. Still, all the countless drinks that I consumed didn’t make me forget what my brain had told me. Everything was spinning, the lights blinded my eyes, Luke was handing me another drink and we were dancing, and yet I can’t stop thinking. “Ingina, lamo ba” I wheezed, inhaling a huge amount of oxygen and slumping my arm on Luke. “Oh ano nanaman yon” he responded back with an amused grin on his face. I didn’t care about his phone at the moment nor thought that he might be filming me but all I wanted to do was tell him what had happened that time. “Kaze, nakaraaaan, nagluto ako, ako, kami ng coookiz” I slurred, trying to get all the words out of my mouth. “Tapos anong nangyare”, “nagluto ako diba, diba, andon din si a

I stared at the air while Brye worked around my kitchen. This morning, Brye was beside me when I woke up, typing furiously on his phone. It took a while for him to notice that I was awake and when he did, he smiled before greeting a good morning. I only let out a hum and stared at him as I tried to rack my brain about the events last night. And I did remember them since I was half sober last night, I think. And I’ve been wishing that I shouldn't have racked my brain because everything that happened last night flooded my brain. I’ve been trying to pretend that nothing happened while Brye made something, more like heating some food from my fridge actually. “Head still hurts?” he asks, pulling me away from my trance. I shook my head, “just, I feel like floating, yun lang” I told him, a small smile forming on my lips. Brye lets out a chuckle, “you kinda drank a lot last night, you and Luke were pretty knocked out last night nung nakita namin kayo ni Karlos” he chuckled while placing the fo

I was unable to speak nor to form any words. I stared at Dan while he anticipated my answer. “Too much ba? It’s fine if you don’t answer ngayon, I can wait naman” he nervously chuckled and I woke up from the trance. “Ha? I mean, okay lang Dan, I mean wait lang let me get my sense lang ha” I closed my eyes, trying to get my shit back again and tried to process his words. I look up at him. “Okay ka lang ba? Hindi ka naman nauntog kaninang umaga?” I frown at him, not really believing his words. He laughs at my words, trying not to spill his drink. He shakes his head, “I woke up fine, Ly” he tells me, and I frown. “Dan, well, I don’t know what to say yet but I guess oo, pwede natin itry, pwede naman” I shrug, “wait nga holy shit, I really don’t know what to say, I’m not prepared for this, bakit ka naman ganyan” I let out a shaky sigh and he laughs. I felt him hold my hand and rub the back of my hand. “It’s fine, I think I overwhelmed you, sorry, pero now that you’re near, parang di na ko

Clinking champagne glasses and the smell of expensive perfumes made Brye almost empty his insides. He’s in a yacht, surrounded by people he doesn’t want to be with. Not to mention that he was running away from Go since this event had started. Brye wants to be home and he doesn’t want to be here. “Your face looked like you’d be happy to jump from here and swim to the shore and go home” Michael appears beside him. “That’s right, give me more ideas like that Faustino” he replies, raising his glass a little before chugging down the contents and placing it somewhere. Michael laughs at his friend. “You know pwede ka naman na umalis ngayon, but your family is probably gonna tear that ear off if you did,” he tells his friend who looks like he is mourning. Brye looked at the night sky. The moon was present and it looked beautiful. He wonders if Lili is also looking at the moon right now. It’s bright and it’s big. “Lili loves the moon looking like that” he mutters under his breath while starin

Two in the morning. There’s a mug of coffee that hasn’t been emptied. It was two hours since the last call was made. A video call to be exact. Dan called two hours ago to say good night and to tell me that he’d pick me up again, this time we’d have dinner again but with Kari and EJ. It has been two hours as well with studying numbers and letters and solving word problems and there’s already a pile of papers stacked on the floor.It was already two in the morning when a message popped out from my tab.Mike:>: Awake? Care for a late-night walk? I frowned at the text but agreed to the walk. I groaned and stretched my back and arms. ‘Maybe a walk would help in clearing my head, kanina pa ako nag-aaral so deserve ko naman magpahinga kahit saglit diba’, I smile at my thoughts before grabbing the jacket and waited for Michael at the lobby of the building, still on his suit. I saw his car and smiled as soon as I entered his car. “Hi, I thought may party kayo?” I asked him while he took a U-tu
