The Mafia's Sweetest Oblivion

CHAPTER SEVEN

VICTORIA

"Now let me take you to shower," malamig niyang utos at hinila ang aking pulso papunta sa banyo na nasa loob lamang ng kwarto. Halos marinig ko ang pagtibok ng puso ko dahil hindi ko alam kung ano ang mangyayari.

Hubo’t hubad na ako at ramdam ko ang pagdampi ng malamig na hangin sa aking balat. Isang mainit na luha ang kumawala sa aking mga mata na nahulog agad dahil wala ng natira sa sarili ko kung hindi tanging dignidad na lamang ngunit tila pati iyon ay mawawala na sa akin sa harap ng lalaking ito.

"Stand there," he said pointing me to the shower.

I immediately set my feet to where he was pointing. Nakayuko lamang ako habang nakatayo at yakap-yakap ang sarili dahil ayokong tumingin lamang sa kanyang mga mata. Nararamdaman kong papalapit siya ng papalapit sa akin at tila isang metro na lamang ang layo namin sa isa’t-isa. Nang buksan niya ang shower ay napabuntong-hininga ako nang tumama sa katawan ko ang mlaamig na tubig na unti-unting nagiging maligamgam. Basang-basa na ako at nangingilid na nag mga luha sa kaing mga mata.

Pinatay niya ang shower at inabot sa akin ang isang pulang lalagyan na naglalaman ng tila shampoo.

"For your hair," he says that there is no rage or anything.

Marahang piniga koi to at lumabas ang pulang likido at agad kong naamoy ang matamis na animo’y strawberry scent. Nang ilagay ko na ang shampoo sa aking buhok ay nasa harapan ko pa rin siya at pinapanood ako na para bang normal lang sa kan’ya ang lahat ngunit ako naman itong hindi halos makagalaw dahil sa mga titig niya. Doon ko lang din napansin na basing-basa na pala siya ngunit parang wala lang ito para sa kan’ya.

"Let me," wika niya at dahan-dahang siyang pumunta sa pwesto ko at na surpresa ako sa kan’yang inakto. Gamit ang kanyang mahahabang mga daliri na animo’y kandila ang hulma at malapad niyang mga kamay at siya na mismo ang nag-massage ng shampoo sa ulo ko.

Napaungol ako sa sarap ng pagkakagalaw ng mga daliri niya sa ulo ko na para bang nakakarelax at muntik na akong mabulunan dahil sa inakto ko. I looked at him and he seemed to hear nothing and just kept doing it. He turned on again the shower and I rinsed my hair after he washed my hair, he then turned off the shower.

"Go into the bathtub," he instructed and my eyes looked at the bathtub and I was ready to walk when I suddenly slipped because of the wetness of the floor. I closed my eyes and was ready to what will comes next when someone grabs my waist. I opened my eyes and saw pairs of eyes who seemed to be worried.

His eyes were soft and shows concern at the same time.

"Clumsy," wika niya na agad naming ikinapula ng pisngi ko at ramdam ko ang pagdaloy ng init sa aking mga tainga.

I gasped as he carries me like a bride. His touch sent shivers in my spine and tingles and at the same time lalo na at hubad ako. His one hand was close to my breasts at ‘di ko mapigilan ang ‘di mahiya ngunit tila wala na akong dapat na maitago sa kan’ya dahil nakita at nahawakan na niya sa akin lahat.

"Are you always like that?" tanong niya at kanina ko pa napapansin na panay ingles siya sa akin kaya napapaisip ako kung hindi ba siya marunong managalog o purong ingles lang talaga ang alam niya?

"L-like w-what Master?" pabalik kong tanong na nagkanda utal-utal pa.

"Blushing," he said, looking me in the eyes, and I was so relieved when he landed me in the bathtub to avoid his question and his gaze. "Stand," he added as I stood in the bathtub, and his gaze traveled through my body once more.

He took a sponge, lathered it with liquid soap, and began rubbing my arms, then my neck. His eyes were solemn, as if there was nothing more important to do.

"Hands up," he said sternly, which made my eyes widen. I raised my hands and looked at him.

"Higher," he continued and I quickly raised my hands. In the bath, I focused my attention on other things. I wanted to slap him right away, but I lack the necessary strength. No man has ever treated me this way, and he has no right to scold me, but I have no choice in this situation. As the sponge touched the side of my breast, I quipped. My n*****s were now hard and pinkish, and his eyes just stared at them as he went about his business. The sponge made its way down to my breast and then to my belly.

He knelt in front of me, and she was now facing mine, and I felt like a filthy woman. The sponge scrubs my bare legs; every move he makes me crazy, and I'm not sure why I'm reacting this way. His hands move up and down near me as he scrubs my legs until his hands reach the part where I nearly whimpered because he's driving me insane. I wanted to smack myself for believing that the man in front of me was touching every inch of my body.

He stood up and took a shower near the bathtub, a shower with a wide bandwidth. He turned on the shower and rubbed my body with it.

"Relax, you're not the only woman I've seen done up like this," he said as he rinsed my body.

Pagkasabi niya ng mga katagang iyon ay namula ang pisngi ko. Hindi ko alam kung bakit, pero kapag naririnig ko ang mga katagang iyon, parang sasabog ang puso ko. Tama, 'wag akng masyadong ambisyosa dahil hindi mapag-aalinlanganan ang mga babaeng 'yon kaysa sa akin. Gusto kong umiyak dahil nawala ang p********e ko.

Then he washed me and placed a white towel in front of me, which I did accept. I tightly wrap myself.

"Don't be so clumsy, you might break some things in here," he said sternly before walking in the door, but not before looking at me.

"You already have a dress and necessary items in your cabinet; let me know if you need anything else out there," she said as she walked away, leaving me behind.

I could hear the door open and close. I wasn't even aware I was crying. I can't take it anymore, so my feet lead me back to the bathroom and burst my tears.

"This is going to be my life, and I should be used to it," sabi ko sa sarili ko habang pinupunasan ang mga luha ko. "Hindi, hindi ito ang gusto ko; kailangan kong malaman kung paano makaalis dito," katwiran ko.
