Before this horrible COVID all went down, I did have one last good fuck. Well, it wasn’t THAT good. But since it’s been more than 70 days without sex, it’s the best I’ve had so far. Mahirap talaga kung wala kang jowa no? Sana all may ka-live in na titi-este, lalakeng maaasahan. Hahaha!
Anyway, let’s go back to the original plan I had.
Work had been tough, as it always has been. Working in a BPO has its perks, but it comes at a huge price in the form of constant stress. You have money for partying and booze, but what’s the use if you can’t spend it ‘coz you’re too tired? You got an HMO, but you need that shit ‘coz you’re always getting sick. Kaloka, mga mamser. But I digress.
That stress comes along with so many things, so many cravings; food, alcohol, lots of dick. Mabuti na lang walang may gustong syotain ako dahil di rin ako makaka-commit tulad ng mga teammates ko. After every shift, inuman. Kanya-kanya silang partner up, kanya-kanyang kantutan. It kinda got tiring at some point, especially entering 2020. I’d been in the industry since I graduated, and since I was already in my late 20s, mukhang nagkakaroon nako ng awakening. Charot lang. Grabe naman.
One morning after shift last January, I was just lying on my bed rethinking my life decisions. I was scrolling through Facebook, staring blankly at my phone when a notification popped up.
It was Max.
“Hey, Ash. Musta naman? Shift done?”
He’d remembered the time of my shift, and we were in constant communication since I “accidentally” ditched him last time. We never got to meet up, but I enjoyed talking to him. Aside from all the naughtiness, he’s really smart, witty, and though he isn’t the ideal guy physically, I like the way he looked. Like I said, mukhang mabango na mabango naman talaga.
“Yooooo! Yeah, stress as always. Ikaw musta work mo?”
He rarely talked about his job, but with the way he interacted with me the first time we met, and the way we’ve communicated constantly, I could tell that he was well-educated. Honestly, kinikilig ako kapag nagmemessage siya. It’s like something I’d expect every day.
“Weekend na ah. Got plans? Gym as always? I saw your videos. Napusuan ko na, Ma’am. Hot. Hehehe!”
One more thing. He ALWAYS views my IG and FB stories, walang palya. Umabot na yata sa puntong sinisiguro ko na maganda ang angles para matuwa naman siya.
“Thanks, cutie. Alam ko namang number 1 fan ka eh. LOL Anyway, wala pa namang plans. Walang nag-aaya. Kakalungot.”, I replied.
“Tara, Morato. Para makalabas na tayo. Di ka sumipot last time eh. Baka naman pwede ka ngayon? Hahaha!”, he replied, almost immediately.
It was a stressful beginning of the year, and I owed this sweet guy. Also, I owed myself a good fucking. I didn’t care if he wasn’t good. I know I am. Basta matikman ko na siya.
“G ako for coffee. Treat mo naman diba, Sir? Hahaha! JK”
“Oo naman. Makakatanggi pa ba ako eh naunahan mo ako? Sige, bukas ng gabi, mga 7?”
“Oks oks. Dadaan lang akong Centris coz I need to pick up something from my officemate. May shift kasi siya. Otherwise, I’m good to go!”
“You got it. See you then, Ash!”
It was set. Finally, magkikita na kami ulit after so long. I must admit, I was excited.
I decided to keep it casual. It was pretty chilly at the time, so I wore my oversized grey hoodie, but made sure to wear the shortest black cotton shorts I had. No denim today, we want things to be easy, if you know what I mean. I wore one of my lucky white Hardwell rave sandos underneath, but decided to go braless dahil naka-hoodie naman ako. Slipped on my navy blue New Balance 247s, sprayed some perfume, and left the house.
I went to the 7-11 downstairs from my office, bought a drink, and waited at one of the benches inside.
“Yo, Ash! Wag kang masyadong nag-iisip baka sumakit ulo mo nyan! Hahaha!”
It was Dave, a guy from our helpdesk who owned a vape shop and a tattoo parlor. I quit smoking some time ago, and decided to vape instead. He’s kind of my “contraband” supplier. Solid friend. Lots of tatts.
“Tangina mo, di porket laging nasa gym tanga na. Hahaha! Yung RPM 40 nasaan na?”
“Kalma, ma’am eto na.”
He sat on the space to my right, opened up his satchel, and took out the vape pod I was looking to buy from him.
“Ayan, perfect yan. May libreng juice at warranty pa. Kalikutin mo if you want. Wag mo lang hipakin dito at baka mapulis tayo.”
“Sabi ko nga, hindi ako tanga, diba?”, I said, gently hitting him on the arm as I too…
