GAME OF SEDUCTION

Chapter 2 (The Girlfriend)

Pasado alas otso na ng gabi at heto pa rin si Dionne sa ospital at halos mamuti na ang mga mata sa pag hihintay na dumating ang pesteng si Doctor Blaze na mukhang wala naman yata talagang balak na siputin siya para sa kanilang date.

“Thirty minutes… I will wait for thirty minutes and if he still didn’t show up then I am out of here.”

Bulong niya sa sarili dahilan para mapairap ang kailbigan niyang si Anya.

“Baka naman kasi talaga nag hihintay ka lang sa wala Dionne? Aba, harapan nang sinabi sa iyo nung tao na hindi ka niya gusto, pero heto ka pa rin at asang-asa na sisiputin ka nga ng lalaking iyon.”

Sermon pa sa kanya ni Anya na hindi naman niya nakuhang pansinin at tahimik na lamang na nag isip.

Baka nga tama si Anya?

Baka nga sa halip na pinagmumukha niyang tanga ang sarili sa pag hihintay sa doctor Blaze na iyon na mukhang wala naman talaga yatang balak na siputinsiya ay dapat nasa bahay na lamang siya at nag papahinga?

Bakit ba naman kasi ganito, minsan na nga lamang siyang magka interest sa isang lalaki ay ganito pa.

“Fine, let’s go home.”

Sa wakas ay pag aaya niya sa kaibigan saka padabog na nauna nang tumayo.

May tama rin naman kahit paano ang hudas na doctor na iyon, maayos na nga ang kanyang paa ngayon.

May kirot na lamang ng kaunti ngunit hindi na katulad ng kagabi.

Handa na sana siyang mag lakad palabas ng ospital na iyon nang matigilan rin lang nang sa wakas ay makita niya si Blaze, naka suot ito ng tuxedo at tila may hinaanap.

“He came after all…”

Dionne whispered with joy, handa na sana siyang lapitan ang lalaki nang agad na mawala ang malaki niyang ngiti nang makitang may isang babaeng lumapit dito, naka suot ng kulay pulang dress ang babae at lalo lamang nag pakunot sa noo niya nang nang makitang ikinawit nito ang kamay sa braso ni Blaze, hindi pa nakuntento at kitang-kita niya pa ang pag lapat ng mga labi nito sa isa’t-isa.

“That jerk has a girlfriend?”

Wala sa sariling bulong ni Dionne.

“Looks like it, wow… she looks pretty..”

Mapang asar na sabi ni Anya habang tumatango pa.

“She looks fat, how the hell would you know that whoever that woman is, was pretty? You can only see her fat ass.”

Inis na sabi Dionne.

“Fat asses are good, I heard doctors likes women with fat asses more.”

Malokong sabi pa ni Anya na lalo lamang nag pa init sa ulo ni Dionne.

“Yeah, whatever. This stupid doctor Blaze has a girlfriend, big deal. Let’s go to my favourite club.”

She said dismissively, what she said only maid Anya giggle and hurried outside that hospital.

--

At the club.

Dionne sipped superb martini from a crystal shot glass and cast an idle glance at the club’s dance floor.

Most men are busy flirting with some bitches, others are busy looking around with all the hopes of finding ‘single’ women off the corner.

As the way Dionne views it, men at the club where she chose to hang out tonight are acting like some wild animals ready to hunt their preys, much to Dionne’s disgust.

“Hey, wanna dance?”

Dionne rolled her eyes almost instantly when she felt the guy’s arms around her waist, Kenneth…

She wasn’t sure if that is indeed his name.

Hindi naman kasi siya interesadong makilala ito, bukod kasi sa hindi naman ito ang tipo niyang lalaki ay pinilit lamang naman itong isama ng mga kasamahan niya matapos tawagan ni Anya ang mga ito na naroon sila sa club na iyon para may ka-partner daw siya nang makita nanaman nila ito sa isang sulok ng club na iyon katulad ng mga nakaraang gabi.

Muling napa irap si Dionne nang maalala ang rason kung bakit nila kasama ang peste at ubod ng hambog na lalaking ito.

Did they really think that she was unaware of the subtle manipulative matchmaking?

It is too much of a coincidence that this annoying and overly full of himself guy had been a fellow guest at several night clubs she and her co-racers visited in the past four weeks.

Hindi manhid si Dionne para hindi mahalatang gustong-gusto siya ng lalaking ito, well kung hindi lamang ito masyadong mayabang at presko ay papasa na rin ito sa taste niya, makisig ang lalaki at sa itsura pa lang nito ay halatang may pera.

But he could still be his parents ‘baby boy’ for all she knows.

Having a boyfriend wasn’t on Dionne’s agenda, nor was she willing to drift into a meaningless relationship.

She was happy being single, being flirty, being free and she has no inclination to change her status quo.

Mabilis ang pag ragasa ng inis sa buong sistema ni Dionne nang maramdaman ang pag higpit ng pagkaka yakap ng lalaki sa kanyang baywang, she knew that if this won’t stop this instance she will be more than happy to hit him straight to his annoyingly boastful face.

Tempted to break his arms off, Dionne tried the best she could to calm herself up a bit saka pa simpleng tinangal ang pagkakayakap nito sa kanya.

“No thank you, can’t you see I’m drinking?”

Mataray na sabi niya rito na siya naman nitong ikina-ngisi, much to her annoyance.

“Huwag ka nang pakipot baby, I know you like me. We can have a dancing lesson at my place if you want.”

The nerve??? How dare he think that she was a kind of woman who will automatically agree to be bed by some guys?

Anger rose to her body and down her spine, whatever this one kind of a diabolical game this annoying and seemingly stupid guy in front of her is trying to play, she wanted to shout right in to his face that she is so damn not interested.

Dionne forced a smile, a very sweet smile that she could master and slowly faced the guy.

Kita niya ang ngiting tagumpay sa mukha nito ngunit sisiguruhin niyang mapapalitan iyon agad ng pagka dismaya oras na mag salita siya.

Alam niyang iniisip ng lalaking ito na makukuha siya nito sa simpleng pag aaya ng ‘dance lesson’ na alam na alam niyang s*x ang ibig sabihin sa bahay nito.

“Kenneth, right?”

Dionne said rather than asked.

Agad na napa ngiti ang lalaki saka tumango, she fights the urge to roll her eyes at him as she’s trying the hardest she could to remain calm.

“You are incredibly handsome, Kenneth. Your huge muscles and glowing skin screams power that will probably make you… irresistible. In bed maybe?”

Seryosong sabi niya na pinilit pang landian ang sariling boses, lalo lamang namang lumawak ang mayabang na ngiti ng lalaki na lalo niya lamang ikinainis.

If only this stupid Kenneth knew how much she wanted to punch him hard on the face para mabawasan ang yabang nito ewan niya lang kung magagawa pa nitong ngumiti ng ganon.

“But…”

Agad na sabi ni Dionne nang makitang mag sasalita sana ang lalaki, inunahan niya na dahil alam niya namang puro kayabangan at pambabastos lamang naman ang lalabas sa bibig nito.

“Your attitude stinks. I hate to break it to you but I don’t like you. You are maybe good looking all right, but that doesn’t give you the right to be overbearing. You are annoying as hell and it will give me an absolute pleasure to hit you with this shot glass.”

Naka ngiti pa rin ngunit seryosong sabi ni Dionne, napa tanga naman ang lalaki at halatang hindi na alam ang isasagot.

Dionne smiled to herself as victory ring in her head.

She saw a not so attractive guy walking passed through them at mas lalo lamang lumaki ang suot niyang ngiti nang may maisip pang gawing kalokohan.

“Oh hey would you look at that, I just saw a guy who happened to catch my interest. If you’ll excuse me pretty boy, I have a dance lesson’ to attend to.”

With that, Dionne left Kenneth with a still shocked expression.

Nakuha niya pang tumawa ng may pang asar nang ma isip na hindi marahil nito matangap na hindi umubra ang karisma at kayabangan nito sa isang katulad ng Chantria Dionne Monteverde.

“Hey, let’s dance!”

Dionne said almost shouting as the guy she saw earlier throwing her an amused look.

She was ready to snatch him by the arm and make him as an excuse and her one ultimate reason to make that annoying Kenneth’s life miserable.

Walang wala ang lalaking ito sa Kenneth na iyon kung itsura at itsura lang din ang pag uusapan ngunit wala siyang pakealam doon.

Maisip niya pa lang na nag pupuyos na sa galit at inis ang mayabang na Kenneth na iyon sa pag iisip na sa isang pangit na lalaki kumpara dito niya mas piniling sumama ay masayang masaya na siya.

Well hindi naman sobrang pangit ng lalaki, may itsura din naman ito kahit paano ngunit hindi ito ang tipo niya.

'And who is your type then? That Doctor Blaze Elix Blancflor na harapan kang sinabiha ng hindi ka gusto at hindi lang iyon, may girlfriend pa pala ang loko?'

A tiny voice taunted.

Lalo lamang namang nag init ang kanyang ulo nang maalala ang ginawang pang i-indian sa kanya ng Blaze na iyon.

She even left him her phone number and reminded him to send her a message kung hindi ito makaka attend sa date nila pero ni isang blankong mensahe ay wala siyang natangap mula rito.

Dionne rolled her eyes at the thought and faced the guy in front of her.

“Ah miss, hindi kasi ako pwede eh. Baka kasi magalit ang girlfriend ko.”

Magalang na sabi nito, and Dionne can’t help it but to let one eyebrow raise.

How dare he turn her down when he should be thankful that she asked him?

She's Chantria Dionne Monteverde, she was the talk of town for all she cares.

And she knew exactly why, she’s beautiful, smart, sexy that even women will be envious every time they saw her walk.

She was mean, flirtatious, a brat and she knew that everyone knows it, her attitude stinks maybe more than anyone could imagine, she knew that people hates her for it and she loves it.

Kilala siya ng lahat bilang si Dionne na maganda at matalino nga pero masama ang ugali.

Imposibleng hindi siya kilala ng lalaking ito.

Dionne rolled her eyes at the guy saka nag salita.

“I don’t give a damn about your girlfriend or whoever that is. If I say let’s dance. Let’s dance.”

Seryosong sabi niya saka walang pakealam na hinila sa kamay ang lalaki patungong dance floor.

Ilang minuto na rin siyang nag sasayaw at pawisan na siya, ang lalaking kaninang ayaw pang sumama ay sarap na sarap at enjoy na enjoy nang sumasayaw ngayon kasama siya.

Mukha ngang nakalimutan na nito ang sinasabing girlfriend dahil ganon na lamang kung enjoy-in nito ang pag giling kasabay niya.

With margarita shot in hand, Dionne danced her heart out to every beat of the loud music, she never even bothered how sweaty she was or how other guys joined them on the dance floor.

Sumasabay sa malakas na musika ang pag tapon ng kanyang balakang na hawak hawak ngayon ng lalaking pakipot pa kanina.

Ramdam niya rin ang sadyang pag dikit-dikit ng p*********i nito sa kanyang pwetan ngunit wala siyang pakealam doon.

Oh she just knew how to give these guys the taste of their own medicines after she's done playing with them.

She doesn’t care at all because that’s what Dionne does.

Sa pag sasayaw ay tanaw ni Dionne ang isang babaeng papalapit, galit ang tingin na ipinupukol nito sa kanya at alam niyang siya ang sadya nito dahil sa bilis nitong mag lakad pa punta sa direksyon nila ng kasama niyang lalaki.

Dionne smirks when she thought about the reason why the seemingly mad woman is now walking through her direction. She figured almost instantly that she was the said ‘girlfriend’ of the guy she snatched earlier.

Pilya ang mga ngiting mas hinusayan niya pa ang pag giling saka pilit na umikot para harapin ang lalaking enjoy na enjoy sa pag kiskis ng p*********i nito sa matambok niyang pang upo.

Matamis ang ngiting sinalubong niya ng tingin ang lalaki saka walang pag dadalawang isip niya itong hinila sa batok at siniil ng halik sa labi.

Halos mag diwang sa tuwa si Dionne nang agad naman itong tumugon.

Katulad ng inaasahan ay isang mabigat na kamay ang malakas na humila sa buhok niya, saglit siyang napa pikit sa sakit nang pakiramdam niya ay halos matangal ang kanyang anit.

“Malandi ka!”

Gigil na sabi nito sa kanya saka binitawan ang kanyang buhok, hindi pa ito na kuntento at akma pa siyang sasampalin ngunit mas mabilis siya.

Isang malakas na sampal ang agad niyang ibinigay dito saka niya ito buong lakas na itinulak.

Nagawa niya pang tumawa nang bumagsak ito sa sahig ng dance floor.

“No wonder your boyfriend instantly forgotten about you after I asked him to dance with me, pangit ka na nga wala ka pang class.”

Mataray niyang sabi saka ito inirapan bago iniwan.

"Wow I never thought that you were this... War freaky type of woman, Dionne."

Agad na napa tigil sa pag lalakad si Dionne nang salubungin siya ng taong hindi niya inaasahan.

His face was serious and his lips was pressed in to a thin line but what bothers her the most was the sight of his dark eyes.

Agad siyang napa irap saka ito pinasadahan ng tingin mula ulo hangang paa.

"Wow, I never thought you were this... formal, doctor Blaze Elix Blancaflor."

She commented, he was wearing a black tuxedo paired with a white under shirt and a red bow tie.

She could say that Blaze got dummped by his girlfriend, the woman she saw in the hospital tonight.

Dionne smirked as she saw him clenched his jaw.

Marahil ay napahiya ito sa sinabi niya at hindi naman iyon pinag sisihan ni Dionne.

Sino ba naman ang matinong tao na pupunta sa ganitong klaseng night club ng naka tuxedo?

Muli niya pang inirapan ang gwapong doctor saka kumilos para sana talikuran na ito.

Dionne doesn't have any intentions of staying there with him doing nothing but play a boring staring game.

Isa pa, she doesn't have any reason to still accomodate him after he showed all the audacity to reject her.

Hindi niya ugaling mag aksaya ng oras sa taong una pa lang ay nag pakita na ng pagka disgusto sa kanya lalo pa at siya ang naunang kumilos para mag papansin dito.

Doctor Blaze Elix Blancaflor wasn't an exception no matter how good looking he is.

Hindi pa man nakaka hakbang palayo si Dionne ay nahawakan na siya nito sa braso, nalipat ang tingin niya sa mga kamay nito saka inangat ang tamad na tingin para salubungin ang tila nakiki-usap nitong mga mata.

"Come with me, Dionne."

Blaze said without preamble.

He didn't even gave her a chance to answer and grabbed her by the arm and pulled her outsode of that club.

"Ano ba? saan ba tayo pupunta? And whoever the hell gave you the right to grab me like that?"

Inis na reklamo niya, aba hindi pa yata siya nakaka move on sa nalamang may girlfriend na ito.

"Shut up, just come with me."

"Ay anong shut up shut up? Shut up mo mukha mo! I asked you for a date last night and you had the audacity to tell me that you don't like me and now you are pulling me like that and-"

Hindi na natuloy ni Dionne ang sasabihin nang walang sabi siyang hilahin ni Blaze at halikan sa labi.

Mabilis lamang ang halik na iyon ngunit sapat na upang manahimik siya.

"See? It' not so hard to be quite."

Sabi nito.

"Just come with me."

"O-okay..."

wala sa sariling sagot ni Dionne saka kusa nang nag pahila kay Blaze palapit sa sasakyan nito.
