12

She dropped me off our house after spending the whole afternoon with each other.

"So I guess, I'll see you next year?" Sadness is visible in her eyes.

"Tell me if you want to see me, We'll meet or you can come over." I smiled at her trying to cheer her up.

"Are you sure?" Her face lit with what I just said. I nodded and smiled at her. She attacked me with a kiss on the cheek and a hug before waving at me.

"You really enjoyed your time together, I see." I jumped out of surprise when I heard my father's voice. I held my chest and exhaled heavily.

"Dad, you almost gave me a heart attack." I said and he just laughed.

"Hi, sweetie. You're home early today." I looked at the time. It's a quarter before eight in the evening.

"We're tired from the party." I kissed them both and went upstairs. I changed my clothes quickly and headed downstairs.

We talked and laughed at the living room. It has been ages since we did a family bonding like this. After messing around, we ate dinner and went to bed.

I rolled in my bed with my blanket around me causing me to look like a kimbap.

My phone started vibrating causing for me to squirm in the bed and eventually fall off.

"Yuri!" The door opened and revealed my mom.

"Oh, hey mom." I smiled at her and she just shook her head when she saw me. She helped me get out of the blanket roll. I grabbed my phone and looked at the caller's id. It's Vin. I answered it and asked her why.

"I just missed your voice, that's all." I felt my cheeks heated because of what she said.

"We were literally together just a few moments ago." I chuckled a bit.

"I miss your voice already. Sing me a song." I laughed at her antics.

"You know you could've ask me to record a song for you." She whined and told me that she want to hear it directly.

"Fine, I'll sing." She went silent after I told her that. I started to hum.

"Sing! sing! sing!" She cheered like a kid.

"Okay, okay." I coughed a little and started to sing. I watched close her eyes while listening to my voice. After a few minutes, I heard her soft snores. I watched her sleep and took some screenshot of it. She's so adorable, I can't.

"Here. Something to munch and drink while staring at Vin's face." I blushed when I heard what my father said. He brought a tray full of foods for me and a bucket of drinks too.

"Thanks, dad." I shyly smiled at him. He chuckled and ruffled my hair.

"Don't stay up too late." He said and closed the door of my room.

I looked at the tray, it's filled with bags of chips and some sort of nuts. I opened a bag of chips and peeked at the bucket. My eyes widen when I saw what my dad brought for me. It's full of low alcohol yet alcoholic drinks. I opened a bottle and started drinking. I was staring right at her while drinking. I spent two hours staring at her while drinking and munching.

"Here are another buckets." I almost jumped from my swivel chair when I heard my father's voice.

"Are you trying to get me drunk, dad?" I asked in disbelief.

"Drink until you fell asleep. Then, when you wake up you'll know how many bottles of this can make you pass out."

"Oh my God, dad. Are you serious?"

"You don't want it?"

"I want it of course." I smiled at him and raised the bottle before drinking it bottom's up. He closed the door after he shot me with his finger gun. My father is very weird, I know.

"Hey." I turned to my phone when I heard a groggy voice. She's awake.

"Oh, why did you wake up?" I asked her while opening another bottle.

"I felt some—holy guacamolé! Are you drinking alcohol?!" She exclaimed as she saw me chug from the bottle.

"Uh, yeah?" I said and drank again.

"You're allowed?!" I nodded and told her that my father was the one who gave this to me.

"How many bottles have you finished?!" She asked again.

"Uh..." I bent down and counted the bottles on the floor. "I...I drank 6 bottles already. Don't worry it got low alcohol content. Probably 6% to 7% only." I continued.

"Are you feeling dizzy right now?"

"Nope, but I feel like peeing. Wait a second, I'll go to the bathroom." I went to the bathroom and peed. "I'm back." I said and chugged again.

"Is that the last bottle?" I shook my head as an answer.

"I got like...11 bottles more." I answered her.

"You'll drink all of it?!" I laughed at her silliness.

"No, you silly. When I start to feel dizzy I'll sleep but right now it's like I'm drinking a bitter-flavored water." I answered and munched again after chugging.

"Did you get drunk before?" I asked her.

"I never tasted alcohol. My mom let me but I don't want to." I was kinda shocked though she looked like a happy-go-lucky kid and she's friends with Jay, I never anticipated that she haven't tasted alcohol yet.

"You wanna drink sometimes?" I asked her or more like invited her.

"Yeah, sure. In your place?" I nodded.

"My father allowed me to drink but told me not to get wasted at bars or clubs. So basically, I'll drink at home. They'll take care of me when I get drunk—"

"Open your door. I'm outside your house." My eyes widen with what she said.

"What?!" She flipped the cam and our house's exterior appeared.

"Wait for me there." I rushed downstairs and saw my parents watching the television.

"Oh, you drank it all?" My mom asked me. I shook my head at her and opened the door and went outside to open the gate.

"Thanks. I told my mom I'll stay for the night and will be back tomorrow afternoon." She showed me her bag and we went inside the house. She's wearing a pair of pink sweat suit, a pink cap and a pair of pink Jordan shoes.

"Oh, hi Vin. I saw you sleeping just a few hours ago." My dad greeted her. She bowed at them and followed me to my room.

"I thought y'all asleep? Anyways, she's staying for the night. We'll get wasted in my room." I said to my parents and they simply said 'have fun!'

She dropped her bag and her cap at the couch and joined me in drinking. I opened a bottle for her and we started to chat about everything.

It's past midnight and my father brought two buckets in my room just a few minutes ago. We are already on our last bucket and I'm totally sober. But Vin, well she's kind of sober too though her eyes are almost closing. I told her that she can sleep but she insisted that she'll accompany me. We finished all the buckets of alcohol after almost three more hours. I tucked her to my bed and set the air-condition at lowest temperature in case she's feeling hot because of the alcohol. I cleaned the mess we made at the floor and laid beside her. This is one of a heck of a night to remember.
