The Pregnancy Contract

Chapter B.1

Chapter B.1

Humikab ako tapos ay kinuha ko ang tweezer. Then, I plucked the hair in my left underarm. Grabe, antok na antok pa ako pero maaga akong ginising ni Fireus. Sinuntok ko nga siya sa mukha niya kanina. He was disturbing me from my beautiful sleep. This was his fault for making me so tired last night na ginusto ko naman! Hays!

"Hey there, sexy!"

Napalingon ako sa pintuan ng banyo. I drew a seductive smile when I found a alluring brute, leaning in the door frame of my bathroom.

"Hey there, handsome!" I winked tapos ay ipinagpatuloy ko ang pagbubunot ng buhok sa kili-kili ko.

Well, I wasn't that perfect woman na makinis ang kili-kili 'di tulad ng ibang babae. I admit naiinggit ako sa mga babaeng makinis ang kili-kili. Pero nakakatawa ha.

I could feel Fireus' stares. Nakasimangot akong tumingin sa kanya. "Bakit?"

"Nothing." Umiling siya.

"Wag mo nga kong titigan. Naiilang ako sa pagtitig mo," umismid ako. I wasn't used to Fireus looking at me intently.

"What? Naiilang ka? Seriously?" Natatawa na siya at ang lawak na ng ngisi niya.

I rolled my eyes. "Whatever."

Minsan nagugulat pa rin ako because medyo magkasundo na kami ni Fireus unlike before na magkaaway kami. Always na nagbabangayan kami ng mga walang kwentang bagay because of him.

I just met him in his coffee shop and he accidentally natapunan niya ako ng milktea.

I was so mad before at nauwi kami sa pagsisigawan.

I'd already punched him before dahil bwinisit niya ang araw ko on that time.

"'You want me to help you, Cejay?"

Weird ko siyang tiningnan as I put down my arm dahil kanina pa ako nangangalay na nakatingin sa salamin. "Hindi ka ba natu-turn off sa ginagawa kong 'to?"

"Hindi. Bakit naman ako matu-turn off? You look cute. I'm glad na pinapakita mo talaga ang true color mo sa akin," he said.

"You sure?" tanong ko ng hindi kapani-paniwala.

"Oo nga. Ang kulit mo. Gusto mo ako pa ang bubunot ng mga niyan para sa'yo." Lumapit siya sa akin then he encircled his arm on my waist. Napaungol ako nang dumampi ang mga labi niya sa leeg ko. Nakaramdam ako ng kilabot dahil sa ginawa niya.

"Fireus..." I slowly closed my eyes and felt his teeth softly biting my neck. Ito na naman po siya!

"Wearing just only your undergarments is very much appealing to my sight, Cejay. Alam mo ba 'yon?" nakakakilabot na bulong niya.

"Ano na naman 'yang proposal mo sa akin?" taas-kilay kong tanong, hinuhulaan ko na agad kung ano ang ikikilos at sasabihin ni Fireus.

Sa tinanong kong 'yon, he drew a smirk. At pabigla niya akong isinandal sa pader ng banyo. Umangat ang sulok ng labi ko, trying not to smile.

Aggressive.

"I'll pluck all the hairs in your underarm but in one condition."

"What is it?"

"I want my reward."

"And what is it?"

"Not 'what is it'. Who is it?" Napangiti ako sa sinabi niya.

"Who is it, then?" tanong ko and slowly, pumulupot ang mga braso ko sa leeg niya, encouraging him to answer me.

"You, of course. I want my dessert," he whispered in his husky voice.

Ngumisi ako at hinaplos ang gwapo niyang mukha. "Umaga palang ho, mister. How come you want your dessert, huh?"

Napasinghap ako when he lifted my leg and circled it to his waist. Sa ginawa niyang 'yon, nilapat niya ang harap niya mismong sa pagitan ng dalawang hita ko. Gods, I could feel how awake he is! Eh, nasa teasing stage pa kami! Fireus!

"Shall we start?" He gently pinched my side, causing goose bumps cringed me.

Isang malaking pagkakamali ang pagtingin sa mga mata ni Fireus. Because when my eyes landed on his, I was hypnotized and lost from it. Parang hinigop niya ang kaluluwa ko na siyang pagkakaroon niya to control me with all his will.

Kumapit ako sa kanyang leeg ng kinuha niya ang isa pang binti ko at pinulupot sa bewang niya then cups my butt with his hand. When he walks out in the bathroom, namalayan ko na lang na we were kissing so wild that we couldn't get enough to each other.

We're as if hungry and thirsty at the same time. And kissing is our only option to full ourselves.

He grinded his front when he laid me on bed. I forwarded my hips to feel his hardness. Bago ko pa tanggalin ang boxer shorts niya, he stopped kissing me at pinisil niya ang tagiliran ko, paakyat papunta sa braso ko at may kinuha siya sa palad ko.

Nahihilo ako sa sensasyon nang pakawalan niya ang labi ko. When I open my eyes, I found Fireus' lips swollen. Dahan-dahan niyang itinaas ang braso ko at inilagay sa ulunan ko. "Stay put," matigas na utos niya.

"S-Sure..." Wala sa sariling sagot ko. I felt myself disoriented from the kiss. Butterflies kept on fluttering on my stomach when he nibbled my neck.

Static electricity flowed from my skin when his lips touched my skin.

"Kapag natapos kong bunutan ang nasa kanang kili-kili mo, I want to taste this." I gasped when he cupped my breasts. Grabe, ramdam na ramdam ko ang init ng palad niya kahit nakasuot pa rin ako ng brassiere.

Tango lang ang tanging nasagot ko. Because honestly, I don't know what should I answer. Tameme pa rin ako sa ginawa niya. And he did what he said. Siya ang nagbunot for me.

I was glaring him ng sobrang sama. Kasi naman while he is busy plucking the hairs on my underarm, he was grinding in front on the apex of my thighs. Nakapulupot pa rin kasi ang mga binti ko sa bewang niya.

I could feel his hot fresh breath fanning over my face while he is so focus plucking the hairs on my underarm. Hindi ko napigilang haplusin ang gwapo niyang mukha. I caressed his nose, his forehead, his cheeks, and his lips. Kung sakaling buntis na ako one of these days, I wonder kung mamamana ng anak ko ang ganitong features ni Fireus. Or is it mine that he or she is going to inherit.

I don't care kung girl or boy ang baby ko. As long as I have a child... a child comes from my womb, ayos na ako doon.

I gasped at napatingin kay Fireus. My eyes widened. Why is he already sucking my n****e?!

Di ko napigilang umungol at iliyad ang ulo ko. Damn! He's so really damn good.

And the rest of our morning went up to something... Basta alam niyo na yun kung anong ginawa namin.

"s**t!" I heard Fireus mutter under his breath habang busy siyang manood ng tv sa sala ko.

"Bakit?" taas-kilay kong tanong ng mapadaan ako sa pwesto niya. We were both dressed up after taking some... exercise?

I sat up right beside him at nakinood sa tv. May pupuntahan daw kasi kaming dalawa. Hindi niya ako pinansin but his eyes were focused in the tv monitor. I focus, too my attention to the tv. Isang balita ang kanyang pinapanood.

Isang reporter ang nasa isang race car field. Nagtaka ako kung bakit mukhang gabi ang background nung nasa likod ng reporter. Then I realized, recorded na pala.

"... They are back! Femme Fatales is back! We know Femme Fatales! They are the notorious five female race car drivers. Is this the chance that Arrieta Clan wants to duel with them? Did they have returned to accept the challenge? Or just want to unwind? Arrieta Clan, Femme Fatales is here! What are you going to do?"

"Femme Fatales?" I knotted my forehead. What a beautiful name for a group! It sounds dangerous.

The reporter started to walk and approached five people who were wearing different color of suits—red, blue, green, yellow, and violet—and helmets match with the color of their suits. He mouthed in the camera, 'Femme Fatales'.

He cleared his throat. 'Yong isa doon na naka-red suit na may suot na helmet sa kanyang ulo ang lumingon sa ginawa ng reporter.

"f**k! Innocent McKay!" Nagtatakang nilingon ko si Fireus nang magmura siya. What's up to this guy, huh?

Nang nilingon ko ang tv, I examined the person na mukhang iinterviewhin ng reporter. I could see the curves of the person's body. That person has boobs meaning is it a woman or a gay?

"Miss Innocent McKay, I'm Finnie from News Zone. What's the reason why five of you came back? Are you here to accept the challenge Arrieta Clan proposed to your group in drag racing?"

Nakakunot ang noo ko nang sinilip ko si Fireus. I remember earlier he mentioned 'Innocent McKay'. So, kilala niya 'yong nasa tv na babaeng naka-helmet na mukhang she has no plan to remove it?

I frowned from the thought he knows that person whose name is 'Innocent'.

Nagtagal ang tingin ko doon sa nagngangalang 'Innocent'. I simply clenched my fist.

"We are not here accepting their challenge. I still say the same though. I am declining it."

I watched Fireus' moves. His jaw clenched.

"Why, Innocent? What's the reason?"

"They are just boastful. That's all!"

"What would you like to say to them? The Arrieta Clan, I mean."

She silenced then cleared her throat. I waited for her to speak.

"For me... you are all losers."

Natahimik 'yong reporter nang makaalis na si Innocent. The reporter was about to speak nang biglang mag-black out 'yong tv. "What... The..." I glared to Fireus nang pinatay niya ang tv.

"What's your relationship with that Innocent McKay?" I stood up and crossed my arms, facing Fireus.

Nilingon niya ako at tumaas ang kilay niya. "Hindi ko alam ang sinasabi mo."

"Oh really, huh? Tss." I flipped my hair tapos ay nilagpasan ko na siya.

"Wait! Are you jealous?"

I ignored him and continue walking to my room.

"Cejay!"

Lumingon ako. Tiningnan ko siya ng masama. "If I caught you flirting with her, papatayin kita! The contract will be breached!" Umismid ako at pumasok sa kwarto. I shut the door forcibly.

Ang kapal ng mukha niya! Grabe! I can't believe that I am acting like this! I look like a s**t!

I flinched when he hugged me from behind. Ni hindi ko napansin na binuksan niya pala ang pintuan ng kwarto ko.

"I am not breaching our contract!" tiim-bagang sabi niya sa akin.

Bumitiw ako sa pagkakayakap sa kanya even though I want to stay in his arms. I could feel the warmth and home inside of him.

"Then, tell me, you idiot!" Lumayo ako sa pagkakayakap sa kanya and looked him in the eye. He sighed in frustration. Parang may gusto siyang sabihin but he wants to tell me. Napailing na lang ako sa inakto niya. If he doesn't want to tell me, then do it.

I was about to step back when he pulled back my hand. Tapos ay dahan-dahan niya akong inakay paupo sa kama ko. I looked at him weirdly. Tumingin ako sa gwapo niyang mukha at hinintay siyang magsalita.

"Cejay, I'm not just an owner of coffee shop just like what you think," panimula niya. "I'm also a race car driver."

Mas lalo akong naguluhan sa sinabi niya. I don't understand why he said it. Ano ngayon kung race car driver siya? Is that a big issue regardless ba doon sa nagngangalang 'Innocent McKay'?

"So?"

"What I am trying to say... that Innocent McKay and the rest of her team, Femme Fatales... They are our opponents. Kalaban namin silang lima ng mga kapatid ko sa race car driving."

"H-Hindi ko maintindihan. I don't understand the shits you are saying. Diretsuhin mo nga ko, Fireus. Do you have a relationship or affair with that woman? Kung mayroon, alam mo naman ang nakasaad sa kontrata ko," seryosong saad ko.

"I'm not having an affair with her! Sinabi ko na sa'yo, she is one of my opponents ONLY!"

I snorted. "You're so affected that she said that you're all losers." Sarcasm was all over on my voice. I did smirk.

Tinitigan niya ako ng masama. Now what? Affected siya. I'm right. I just c****d my brow and challenged him to say something.

"I tell you, I'm not having an affair with her. Hindi ko siya gusto nor pinagnanasaan, Cejay. I don't like her being so boastful. We proposed an agreement na kung lalabanan nila kami ng one on one sa drag racing, kung sino man matalo, never shall show themselves in the car racing ever. Kaso, ayaw tanggapin ng mga Femme Fatales ang alok namin ng kapatid ko. I so wanted to end their boastful stage kaso hindi nangyayari ang aim namin ng mga kapatid ko because Innocent McKay won't accept our proposal. Believe me, Cejay. She's not one of my women I bedded with. And never will I allow it that she will become one. I can't trust her. Ni hindi ko nga siya kilala because she hides her face through wearing helmet. I honour my word. I honour your contract. Marunong akong sumunod sa mga kontrata. If you doubt me, then stop the hell out, Cejay."

Natahimik ako. His voice is stern like he is trying to make me believe that he is telling the truth.

I examined his face. Truth is, I believe him. I'm just testing him. Akala ko bibigay agad siya. He proves me wrong.

"Okay." I smiled. "Don't worry, I believe you, Fireus." Hinaplos ko ang mukha niya. "Calm down, okay?" sabi ko habang patuloy ko lang hinahaplos ang mukha niya. He leaned in my touch and closes his eyes.

Slowly, his arms enveloping me inside of his body, feeling the warmth of his. Then, I realized he was totally hugging me. Nakasiksik na ang ulo niya sa leeg ko. I felt him sniffing me, inhaling my scent.

I chuckled. "Fireus..."

"Maybe, you should meet my siblings," he said. Dahan-dahan siyang lumayo sa akin and he looked at me.

"What?" natatawa kong tanong. "Are you serious?" Was he really serious?

"Yes." Tumango siya. "Ipapakilala kita sa kanila. Shall we?" Ni hindi pa nga ako pumapayag, hinila na niya ako paalis sa room ko. I just let him to drag me out of my condo. At least, wala akong work ngayon. Maybe, I could spend more time with Fireus.

Naaawa ako sa kanya dahil nagtapat siya sa akin kagabi. Tigang na tigang daw siya.

Funny, isn't it?

But kinakabahan ako.

I'm about to meet his siblings. Ano na lang sasabihin ko kapag nagtanong sila kung ano ang relationship namin ni Fireus? Should I say, he is my s*x partner? Bedmate? That he is under of my contract?

Hala! Ano na?! Ano na?!
