I opened my eyes and found out that I'm with no one. The curtains are fixed on the sides of the glass doors are widely open, letting the fresh morning air touch my skin. If I am here on different time and mood, I will be very refreshed and calm.
I fixed the comforter that's covering my naked body. It is probably late in the morning, I am hungry but the pain tingles more.
Hayop na ‘yon. Mabaog sana siya!
No one could blame me for cursing him. Kahit saang anggulo ang tignan, he r***d me. But when Yu-Rhi again hugged me tightly last night while caressing my hair, it somewhat made me really fall into a deep sleep.
May towel na nakakalat kaya naman kinuha ko na 'yon at pinantakip sa katawan ko. Then I went to the bathroom hoping he was just kidding about the bathroom being visible from the outside, and wow! Glass walls pa rin.
Halatang manyak ang may ari ng buong bahay na 'to.
Para lang akong nasa hallway na may dalawang glass doors sa kaliwa at isa pa sa dulo. Binuksan ko ang isang glass door at nandoon ang toilet bowl at isang glass sink. Glass walls din naman pero medyo blurry siya. Kung sana ganito din naman sa labas eh mas maayos sana. I went out and opened the other glass door. So this is a walk in closet.
Lumabas na ako at dumeretso sa isang siliding door sa pinakadulo. And I was pretty amazed by the large glass Jacuzzi and rain shower on top of it. Maganda ang view sa labas dahil nga glass walls… even the ceiling here.
I might want to enjoy the bath.
…
"What took you so long?" The demon asked me while I'm taking the stairs down.
"Pakialam mo?" Pagtataray ko sa kanya.
He's actually sitting on the dining and I hate myself for finding him very sexy.
Marami na ring pagkain at open ang karamihan sa glass walls kaya naman naihahangin ang mga puting kurtina.
He laughed. "Buntis kana ba at ganyan kana? Masyado atang maaga."
Agad namang uminit ang ulo ko at naibato ko sa kanya ang isa sa mga flipflops ko pero agad niyang nasalo. Bwisit!
Padabog akong lumapit sa kanya at kinuha yun. Isa pang kinabwibwisitan ko, ang kinuha niyang mga damit ko ay puro two piece lang at maninipis na tops. O di kaya mga summer dresses! Ngayon nga ay naka-red two piece ako at see-through na white long sleeve na hanggang tuhod ang haba. Punyeta!
Ngumiti lang siya at lumapit sa 'kin. "What do you want?" He asked and he pulled a chair for me.
Umupo naman ako doon pero busangot pa rin ang mukha ko. Nakakainis siya! I hate him. Really, I do.
"You want that?" He gently asked and pointed the pancake.
"Hindi ako baldado." Matigas kong sabi. "Isa pa, kung ginagawa mo 'to para bumawi, I'll never forgive you, jerk." Then I get some foods on my own. Hindi na rin siya nagsalita at bumalik na sa upuan niya.
I know I'm rude but what does he expects? Na makukuha niya ang loob ko sa mga ginagawa niya? Mapeste siya!
"Look..." he started. "I'm sorry for everything. I know this isn't easy for you but I'm making it up to you."
I stopped eating and looked at him with a blank expression. "And you think it's that easy? Kahit pa iharap mo sa 'kin lahat ng gusto ko, hindi kita mapapatawad. At hindi kita mamahalin. So don't expect na ituturing kitang asawa."
He was shocked because of the sharpness of my words but he just nodded. I don't know but I feel a little guiltiness when I saw sadness or maybe pain in his eyes. But hell no! He deserves it all!
"Tell me..." I said while chewing some cake. "Ano ba talagang rason at s*x slave mo 'ko ngayon?" Still not looking at him.
I can see through my peripheral vision though that he stopped eating as well.
"Do you feel like it?"
I rolled my eyes and looked at him. "Ano sa tingin mo? OO! Kung nalilibugan ka, basta ka nalang gagapang o susunggab diyan."
"You aren't that cold and rude... aren't you?"
"Eh ano ba dapat?!" I said and stood up! "Dapat pa ba 'kong magpasalamat?"
"Ayaw mo ba ng ganitong buhay? You have everything and you can have anything here with me." Malambing lang ang boses niya as usual, pero parang may hinanakit. But I do not give a damn about it.
"I'd rather have nothing than to be with you." I said cold-heartedly.
"Can't you just be nice to me?" He said and stood up. "'Cause me, I know one day I'll love you." He sincerely added.
God! Bakit ba parang nasasaktan siya ng sobra sa mga sinasabi ko?
I smirked. "I don't care."
He nodded sadly and spoke. "Okay."
"So ano na... ano ba talaga’ng rason?"
He sighed and sat down. "For me to have more money."
Hell!
"What?" I asked in disbelief and took my seat too.
"My dad. He wants us to have our family first before giving us our shares." He said and straight looked into my eyes. "And I need that money for my mafia and business."
"So ginamit mo lang ako!" I shouted frustratingly.
Fuck it! So kaya pala ang bilis bilis ng lahat.
"I know. But I wanna save you from your life too. And in fact, hindi malayong mahalin kita."
"Mahalin?! Gago! Mahalin sa kama! Mas gugustuhin ko nalang maging mag-isa sa buhay kaysa makasama ka."
Kung hindi pa nabasa ang kamao kong nakayukom ng luha ko, hindi ko malalamang umiiyak ako.
He stood and approached me but I hurriedly moved away from him. "'Wag mo 'kong hawakan." I firmly said and so he just looked down.
"Bakit hindi ka nalang naghanap ng mas magaling sa kama kaysa sa 'kin?!"
"Honey no. Sa dami ng flings ko, it's you I wanna be tied to. And I just don't know why."
Flings?! Flings oh wow god damn it!
"Eh dahil baka ako nalang ang hindi pa sagsag sa mga babae mo."
"You really think of me that way?" He asked.
And there it goes again... his eyes with pain. He is indeed a good actor.
"Eh ano? Santo?" I bitterly asked.
"Why don't you just try to be nice at me and lov-"
"Hinding hindi kita mamahalin."
He closed his eyes and sat on the chair. "I... I get it."
I went nearer to him. "You know what... you're nothing but a jerk."
He looked at me and sighed. "Stop. I'm hurting."
Hurting? Alam ba niya salitang 'yon?
"Totoo naman!" I shouted. "Gago ka! Sinira mo lang ako eh." I said and slapped him hard. Namumula yung pisngi niya pero hindi siya umiimik. Hindi ba siya magagalit manlang sa 'kin?! "Wala kang kwenta Yu-Rhi." I almost whispered. "Sana naman, inisip mo muna na hindi ako yung babaeng pakikitaan lang ng mabuting ginawa, magpapatawad na. I'm tough. At tanga ka para piliin ako na asawa mo!"
He stood and held my hands. "Please stop it. Just continue your br-"
Binawi ko yung kamay ko at isinampal ko sa kanya. "I HATE YOU YOUNG MAN."
He looked at me and with my surprise... I saw how a tear rolled down from his left eye. Tumalikod na 'ko at nagsimulang maglakad papunta sa hagdan.
"You just sounded like dad. And it damn hurts a lot." I heard him say that made me stop from walking.
Bakit gano’n? Ramdam ko yung sakit ng pagkakasabi niya.
I turned my head to his direction but I just saw him taking his way out of the house. I just can't believe the words he said. He even cried! Did I just go beyond the belt? God! I feel guilty. But no! He deerves it all! Do not be deceived by his innocent face Brie! Can you not?!
