chapter 1 The beggining

Chapter 1

“I don't want to get married. That's final!” Quaivan slammed his fist on the table as he heard what his parents said. He was pissed off the moment the word married came out from his father's mouth. 

Kaagad siyang humindi. Hindi siya makapapayag na pwersahin siya ng mga magulang na mag-asawa na. Lalo na sa babaeng hindi naman niya mahal. Ngunit hindi ito ang malalim na dahilan kung bakit ayaw ni Quiavan na magpakasal. Delikado ang trabaho niya. At ayaw niyang madamay ang pamilya at magiging pamilya niya kung mag-aasawa na siya.

"You are not getting any younger, Van-van—"

"F*ck that Van-van! Stop calling me that. I am not a baby anymore!" He annoyingly wave his hand towards his mother cutting up her words.

"Pero anak. . . We need an heir. Tama ang mama mo. Hindi ka na bumabata. Kailangan mo nang mag-asawa."

Quaivan moved his gaze to his father. Malumanay itong magsalita. Just like his mom. Sa kanilang magpamilya siya lang yata ang laging pagalit kung magsalita. Siya lang yata ang marunong magalit. 

But when it comes to work, as the country's highest paid surgeon, Quaivan is very gentle. He is warmth towards his patients. Isa iyon sa ugaling namana niya sa ama.

"You all asking me to get married yet you're calling me Van-van?" hindi makapaniwalang aniya. 

It's true that his parents still babies him. Pero hindi siya suwail at Mama's boy kumbaga. Quiavan stands on his own now. Mahal na mahal lang talaga niya ang magulang kaya ayaw niyang suwayin ang mga ito. 

Pero kapag kasal na ang usapan, he will broke the hell to decline them.

"Why we can't? You're still our baby," sagot ng ina niya.

Pasalampak na umupo sa swivel chair niya si Quiavan at humarap sa magulang. Nasa sariling opisina siya ng hospital ng ama. 

As the son of the owner of the hospital his position was raised to one of the board of director. Pero narating niya ang posisyon niya dahil na rin sa matindi niyang pagsisikap. His father just guided him.

Quiavan snorted at his mother. Kung maka-baby ito parang hindi siya thirty-two years old. 

Napailing na lang siya sa isiping iyon. Ayaw niyang sumama ang loob ng ina kung sakaling kontrahin niya ang sinabi nito.

"I still don't want to marry. I'll do it when I am ready."

His father sighed. Parang nawalan ito ng lakas na makipag-argumento.

"Son, our partner’s daughter will suits you. Kilala mo siya. Why don't you try? She's the type of girl that you want right?"

Quaivan looked at his father, eyes widening.

"What do you mean? Kilala ko siya? Anak ng business partner mo? Is it Miley?" seryosong tanong niya. Iisa lang ang business partner nito na kilala niya na may anak na dalaga.

If it is her, Miley, then the more Quiavan will declined. He likes Miley. Pero kung mapapahamak ito dahil sa klase ng trabaho niya mas gugustuhin niyang hindi sila magkatuluyan nito. If he wants he can get a substitute. A disposable woman.

An idea popped into his brain cells. This idea was once suggested by Kraven to one of their teammates. Napangisi siya ng lihim sa isiping iyon saka tumayo. Naglakad siya papunta sa bintana ng opisina at nakapamulsang tumingin sa labas ng gusali. Nakatalikod siya sa magulang dahil ayaw niyang makita ng mga ito ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya kung magsisinungaling siya. His parents knows him too well. Basang-basa siya ng mga ito kapag nagsisinungaling siya. 

As a doctor he needs to speak the truth. And Quiavan is not used to lying to his parents. His face will flush red if he will lie. Kaya sinigurado muna niyang hindi makita ng mga ito ang ekspresyon ng mukha niya bago siya magsalita.

"I can't marry, Miley, 'Pa. I already have someone I know. And I am dating her for quite some time now." Mababa ang boses na wika niya. Pinigilan niya ang sarili na huwag pumiyok. 

Narinig ni Quiavan ang mahinang tawa ng ama at ang impit na pagsigaw ng ina. Pinigilan niya ang sariling lumingon dahil ramdam niya ang pag-init ng mukha.

"Is it true, son? So, can we meet here?" his father asked with a hint of disbelief im his voice.

Alam ni Quiavan na mahirap paniwalain ang kanyang ama. As a retired military doctor, his father is sharp. Madali siyang mabubuko nito. Kaya agad siya nitong tinanong kung kailan niya ipapakilala ang babaeng dini-date niya.

"When can we meet her, Van-van?" his mother also inquired.

Mahinang napabuga ng hangin si Quiavan. Ang kamay na nakapamulsa sa doctor's robe niya ay mahigpit na nakakuyom.

"Soon." 

"Will be waiting for that, son. But we need the soonest. Baka hindi makapaghintay si kumpare at agarang itakda ang kasal niyo ni Miley." His father said firmly. 

Alam ni Quiavan na hindi naniniwala ang ama niya sa dahilan niya kaya't hanggat maaga pa ay kailangan na niyang maghanap ng babaeng magpapanggap na girlfriend niya.

QUAIVAN was leaning on his chair with a glass of whiskey on his hand. Nasa isang famous s*x-club siya ngayon kasama si Kraven, his teammate and buddy. Ito ang nagbigay sa kanya ng idea na maghanap ng paupahang girlfriend. Ito rin ang nag-introduce sa kanya sa naturang club.

"Do you think your idea will work? Baka naman isang araw pa lang na magsisimula ang pagpapanggap niya, mabuko na kaagad siya," Quiavan asked after finishing the whiskey on his glass. His eyes were fixed on the stage where girls are sitting on the high chair as they wait for the auctioneer to start the bidding.

"Trust me, buddy. Hindi basta-basta ang mga babae rito. Hindi ito tatawaging high end s*x-club kung pipitsugin ang mga babae nila. And they offer free one night service, saan ka pa?" nakangising sagot ni Kraven.

Napailing si Quiavan. Tama ang kaibigan. Hindi basta-basta ang club na pinasok nila. They paid a huge amount of money for the entrance and VIP member. And the girls that were on the high chair on the high flatform were all gorgeous and sexy. Halos lahat ay may ibubuga, pero may isang babaeng natipuhan ang binata. Kanina pa nakasunod ang mata niya rito habang malambot ang katawan nitong sumasayaw sa stage. Bawat kembot ng katawan nito ay sinasaulo ni Quiavan. 

The image of the girl was dazzling that he can't take his eyes off. Isang beses nang nagtama ang mata nila ng dalaga ng ‘di sinasadyang mapadako ang tingin nito sa kinaroroonan niya. Pero katulad ng gamu-gamo ay parang napapasong iniwas kaagad nito ang tingin.

"Seems like you already found someone you likes. Prepare your pocket, bud. She's the star of the night today." 

Nilingon ni Quiavan si Kraven na nasa katapat na upuan. May katabi na itong dalawang babae sa magkabilaang gilid. Dahil pabilog ang upuan ay medyo nakatalikod ito sa stage kaya siguro basang-basa nito kung saan siya nakatingin. Sinalinan niyang muli ng whiskey ang walang lamang baso saka inisang-lagok ang alak bago sinagot ang kaibigan.

"Money is  not a problem, buddy. I will get what I want tonight. And show my father that I have my own girlfriend to marry." Quiavan aswered with voice of seriousness.

"Thats the fighting spirit, bud. Make sure you make use of it later." 

Before Quiavan can answer, the auctioneer started to bid the first woman that was sitting in front. There were actually eight of the woman on the stage. And the ranges was placed from the front to the back. Ang ikawalo ang siyang pinaka-espesyal sa lahat. Ang pinaka-huling babae na nakaupo sa pinaka-likurang upuan. Pero dahil mas mataas ang upuan nito ay kitang-kita pa rin ang pigura nito.

The biddings for the first seven girls were intense. Dahil lahat ng babaeng inu-auction ay may ibubuga. Pero ni hindi nagpakita ng interest si Quiavan. Hinihintay niya ang pinakahuli.

And the bidding for that woman starts when the auctioneer spoke.

“Distinguished gentlemen. The bidding for our star of the night will start now. You can put your tab on the tablet in your front to state your bid.”

Quiavan took the tablet that the auctioneer was telling. Isa iyong malapad na screen at may nakalagay na mga presyo kung magkano ang ibi-bid. Mahigpit niya iyong hinawakan habang hinihintay ang pagtawag ng auctioneer.

“The bid will start at 100thousand pesos.”

Hindi agad nag-bid si Quiavan pagkasabi ng auctioneer sa presyo. He will wait. He will wait for those interested with the woman. He will wait for everyone else that think that they can outshine him. He will make their hopes high and then suddenly crush it.

The glint on his eyes was sharp and deadly and it didn't escape Kraven’s sharp eyes.

“You really picked your interest well, man,” tudyo nito.

Sinulyapan lang ito ni Quiavan at muling ibinaling ang tingin sa flatform. There were only two people bidding for the woman and the price was already rocketed to 10million pesos. Quiavan type a number on his tablet screen.

The auctioneer smile widens as he saw the amount written on his own tablet.

“Number sixteen for fifteen million pesos!” 

The wide room that was in chaos because of the bidding suddenly quieted down. Lahat ng naroon lalo na ang mga kasali sa bidding ay hinanap kung sino ang huling nag-bid. Pero binalewala ito ni Quiavan. His eyes were concentrated on the woman that was only left alone on the flatform. 

Kahit ang babae ay nakatitig din sa kanya. May kung anong emosyon ang nag-flash sa mga mata nito. Kitang-kita iyon ni Quiavan dahil nakatutok sa babae ang spotlight.

“You really got it bad, man.” Kraven chuckled when he heard how much he bid.

“Pleasure your own. Don't mind me.” 

“Sixteen million for number forty-five. Anyone?” The auctioneer shouted once again. 

Quiavan gritted his teeth as he looked at the bald old man who was bidding at number forty-five. Twisting his knuckles he type in another amount on his tablet.

“Twenty million for number sixteen. Twenty million! Our star for night was popular today.”

Sinalubong ni Quiavan ang matalim na tingin ng matanda. Nginisihan niya ito. Ang isang nagbi-bid ay tumigil na sa pag-raise ng amount. 

“Twenty-five million! Twenty-five million for table number thirty-two! Mukhang mabenta ang isang 'to ha!” 

Quiavan gritted his teeth as he looked at the table number thirty-two. Pero dahil mataas ang sandalan ng sofa na kinauupuan nito ay nakatago ang hitsura nito. But Quiavan can feel that this one is not as easy as the bald man.

Hindi magpapadaig ang binata. He raised his bid and he smirked as he heard the auctioneer announcing his bid.

“Fifty million! Fifty million for table number sixteen! Anyone can bid higher?” The auctioneer was now getting agitated as the price rocketed to it's peak. Sinong hindi magiging excited? This is the first time that the girls that was auctioned raised up to fifty million pesos. A history for the first time in this s*x-club.

But once again the one that's fighting Quiavan for the bidding raised his amount. While the bald man who looks sullen at the corner, already stop his bidding.

“Sixty million pesos!” 

Dylan gritted his teeth as his knuckles clenched. He type-in again another amount. Mas mataas pa.

“Mukhang may makakalaban ka, bud!” Boses ni Kraven ang nagpataas ng tingin niya mula sa pagkakayuko at pagtitig sa monitor.

Bukod sa dalawang babae na nasa tabi ni Kraven wala na silang ibang kasama. Hindi nagpa-table ng babae si Quiavan dahil ang babaeng nasa stage lang ang interesado siya.

“F*ck him if he messed with me.” Quiavan sent the amount the same time the auctioneer speak.

“Seventy million pesos for table number sixteen. Mukhang may mainit na laban sa may hawak ng dalawang numerong ito. Meron pa bang sasali? May tataas pa sa seventy million?” 

A short pause came for a while. Habang nagmumuni-muni si Quiavan. Alam niyang may limit ang bidding ng kalaban niya. And he will take it from him. Para sa babaeng pinagka-interesan niya handa siyang gumastos.

“Seventy-five million!”

When Quiavan heard the amount he almost shows his teeth in triumph. His enemy reach his limit. Bibigyan pa ba niya ito ng pagkakataon? No way! 

Muli siyang nag-type ng amount sa monitor. And when the auctioneer spoke there was a loud gasped heard from the audience. The whole club suddenly went silent.

“One hundred million pesos! Going once?”

No one raised up.

“Going twice?”

“Goung thrice?”

“Congratulations seat number sixteen. You won the star of the night for one hundred million pesos.”

Quivan smiled in triumph. His fine lips form into a sweet yet wicked smile. Finally the deal for his father is sealed.

“Congrats, buddy! You won the star of the night. Make sure to enjoy the pleasure,” Kraven stated. Nakakaloko ang ngisi nito habang nakatingin sa kanya.

Bilang sagot ay itinaas ni Quiavan ang baso ng alak na hawak saka nakangising ininom ang laman niyon.

Pagkaraan ng ilang minuto ay nilapitan siya ng manager ng club. Nakangiti ito nang humarap sa kanya.

“Distinguished guest, your bid is here.” Pagkawika niyon ay itinulak nito paupo sa tabi niya ang babaeng napanalunan niya sa bidding.

Quaivan salute with two fingers to the manager but his eyes are staring deeply to the woman. Nang makita ito sa malapitan ay lalong tumiim ang tingin niya rito. 

She really looks like her!

“Have we meet before?” Iyon ang unang tanong niya.

“No.” 

Quivan's shook his head lightly. Baka hindi nga siya. It's been too long!

Hindi na siya nagpaligoy-ligoy pa. Kaagad niyang tinanong ang babae kung payag ito sa plano niya.

“Would you like to be my s*x-partner and fake girlfriend?” he asked seriously.

The woman smirked as she looked at him ridiculously. “You bid for 100 million only to ask me to be your fake girlfriend?”

Hindi kaagad nakasagot di Quiavan. Ang magandang mukha ng dalaga ay lalong naging maningning sa paningin niya nang ngumiti ito. F*ck! She really looks like her! Does he recognized me? Kaya kinakaila niya ako?

“Well, would you?” muling tanong ng binata na lalong tumiim ang titig dito.

Ngumiti ang babae na ikinaluwag ng loob ng binata. But his smile suddenly frozed when she spoke.

“No.”

“F*ck! What?”

“I declined. But your night will still be filled.” May inabot itong card sa kanya. “I will wait for you in the VIP room!” Kinindatan siya nito saka ito tuluyang tumayo at iniwan siyang nakatunganga.

“What the f*ck did just happened?” wala sa sariling bulong niya.

“She ditched you. She declined you. Now you need to find a way to shoo her. Or else you'll need to find another,” Kraven said. Tumawa pa ito ng nakakaloko. Ang dalawang babae sa tabi nito ay walang tigil sa paghaplos sa binata. 

“Damn! I won't accept that I paid for nothing. That woman will submit to me no matter what!” Quiavan gritted his teeth as he stood up and follow the woman to the VIP room.
