Watering Hole, Ortigas Center - is Jessica’s favorite drinking spot. It was one Saturday night when she was enjoying drinking her San Mig Light and smoking her cigarette while listening to the band, when she caught a glimpse of a familiar masculine figure on one of the tables in front of her. She made her way to the crowd to look again. That tall, white complexion, Chinese-eyed guy was her ex-boyfriend Paolo, who dumped her, thirteen years ago. She was 19 then, so naïve and innocent and a heartbreaker is one person she would hardly forget.
When she realized that, she found the same pain inside her, just looking at the guy from a far gave her that familiar lump in her throat that if she swallow, she will definitely burst into tears. Dolly, her bestfriend came over and asked her about the expression on her face, she told her about it and her friend started to tease her and encourage her to say Hi! But, Jessica no matter how strong she can be, her weakness is seeing the one guy who gave her pain that cost her all her life to bear and forget. She was on her fourth bottle when her friend Dolly pushed her on the crowd and she bumped into Paolo.
“Dolly! What the heck!” She said irritatingly and turned around to apologize to the person she bumped into.
She looked up and saw that familiar face smiling at her, and all she could utter was “Sorry”.
Paolo said, “it’s fine, were almost leaving anyway besides it just a little beer on my sleeve, so no harm done.”
So, she just smiled and shrugged her shoulders and turned around to leave him.
“Jessica Benitez, my Idol, your moves might have changed but not your eyes.” He said touching her arm.
She pulled all her courage to smile and be calm and turned back to face him, then she said excitedly,
“I thought I’ve seen that face from somewhere, Paolo Jimenez. What’s up?!”
they exchanged hugs, shared some more beer and made an update of the years that has gone by and from that day on… every Saturday they spent time together just drinking, sharing stories and being sweet like the old days. If you see them together, you wouldn’t have any hint that he left her for another girl thirteen year ago.
It was Dolly’s birthday party, Paolo and Jessica attended as a couple. They fooled everyone that they were really a couple except for the Dolly of course. They spent the whole night being sweet to each other and drinking until they drop. The party ended around two in the morning, leaving Dolly her boyfriend Craig, Paolo and Jessica. Paolo was asleep on one of the leathered couch and the waitress was watching Jessica while she was intently watching his face searching for answers to all her questions or rather to her question… why did you left me for her? When she felt someone was looking, she looked around she saw the waitress and Dolly looking at her, they were both thinking that she wanted to kiss him.
“go girl, kiss him, he wouldn’t mind I’m sure.” Dolly said laughing.
“That’s true, besides he seemed so drunk.” Said the waitress.
So, she did. Jessica kissed Paolo on the lips and the slightest touch of her lip to his he answered back and the kiss grew deep… until she pushed him ‘cause she needed to breathe for some air.
He looked at her and said, “Jess, let’s go home.”
They ended up at his pad, the waitress was right, Paolo was so drunk that Jessica had to help him to his pad and settle him into his bed. She took a beer from his fridge and light a cigarette and just walk back and forth at the foot of her bed while constantly looking at his face. Thinking if she will just leave him like that or stay. After her beer and smoke, she decided to stay.
She looked for a towel from the closet, found a shorts and a shirt from Paolo’s clothes that would fit her and went inside the shower. She likes taking shower with no lights so she did. Thinking that Paolo was asleep and he was so drunk that he will not woke up in the next hour, she left the door unlock went under the shower and enjoyed the warmth of the water. She was enjoying it so much and was capturing every feeling that the warm water is giving her that she didn’t notice any sound until the bathroom door opens and Paolo went under the shower with her naked. She was caught off guard, she couldn’t move, she couldn’t say anything. He took the soap from her hand and ran it from her neck… to her shoulder…to her breast. He moved closer, leaned and kissed her eyes, nose, cheek and her lips … a rather long and lingering kiss… he moaned and called her name… “Jess…”
Upon hearing her name she opened her eyes and when she saw his face, everything just came back to her mind… she pushed him a little just to stop him and said “I’m done”.
She took the towel from the rails and went out of the bathroom. She was all dressed up and was smoking while seating on the bed when Paolo went out of shower. He puts on his clothes took a cigarette from the table and sat beside her.
Jessica asked, “why did you left me for her?”
Paolo just looked straight to her eyes but kept quiet seems like saying “your guess is as good as mine.”
“Because if it was all about Sex, big mistake! Huge! During those times Pao, all you need to do was asked, because I loved you so much that I was ready to give you everything if you asked for it.”
She stood up and went out of his place and his life… for good. `
