Just One Reason

Chapter 10.

"Did you really study in St. Benilde?"

It was already a week since we had an understanding. Araw araw ako'ng sinusundo ni Mikael sa trabaho. The first time he did, my co workers swooned at asked me questions the next day.

I just tell them trivial things.

Although napag usapan namin na we'll take it slow, naisip ko rin na hindi pa siguro muna ako magtatanong ng kung ano. I enjoyed our first week together.

On the third day, imbes na mag dinner sa labas ay pinakilala ko sya kay Mamsi na umuwi ng maaga para ipagluto kami ng dinner.

Uncomfortable at first. I did not have any guy that I brought home before para ipakilala kay Mamsi. Isa pa, kahit alam ko na mabait si Mamsi, mahirap pa rin mahulaan kung magugustihan nya ba si Mikael o hindi.

I was so relieved when they clicked.

And now, I'll be staying a night here in his suite this weekend.

Umorder kami ng pizza at ilang beer in can ang nakalatag sa glass coffee table ng living room ng suite nya. I was just wearing his shirt with just my undies.

"Curious now?" Nakangisi na tanong nya as he emerged from the kitchen holding a bowl of fried chicken and mojos.

He sat next to me at the sofa and pulled me in his arms matapos nya mailapag ang bowl.

"Yep!" Tipid na sagot ko.

"Yeah, I really did graduate there." Parang bored na sagot nya. "You might ask why I have an accent and why I am rich?" Yumuko sya at yumingin sa akin.

Ngumisi ako at tumango.

He chuckled. "My mom's staying in Luxembourg. She's been working there since time I don' t remember. When I graduated two years ago, lumipat ako doon."

Tumango tango ako. "Taga doon si Irina?" I deliberately opened a topic about her. I wanna talk about her. Gusto ko marinig ano pa pwede masabi ni Mikael tungkol sa kanya.

Umiwas sya bigla ng tingin. I saw his adam's apple moved and he glued his eyes on the tv screen. "Yeah, she's from there. We met there and sabay kaming umuwi dito sa Pilipinas two months ago."

"Why?" I am pushing it.

"Well, she wanted to pursue her dream, she's into music and she can't do it there. Medyo may alam na rin naman sya about Philippines, she researched. She even learned some words and phrases bago pa kami makauwi."

Tumango tango ako.

"She's very pretty." Wala sa loob na sabi ko. Nag focus na ang din ako sa tv screen.

Yinuko ako ni Mikael, pinilit ko ngumiti para hindi sya mag isip ng kung ano.

"Jealous?" Taas kilay na tanong nya.

I laughed. "Of course not!" Tapos malakas ako na tumawa.

"Good, then." Kibit balikat na sabi nya.

We passed our time watching movies while having pizza, mojos, friend chicken and beers. Inantok na ako and Mikael positioned me into him. Kinandong nya ako paharap. Naka maong pants sya and well, I'm just on my underwear on my bottom.

I hugged him and let my head reast on his shoulder.

"Alas onse na. Gusto mo na matulog?" He caressed my back.

Umiling lang ako. Inaantok na ako, pero ayoko pa matapos ang gabi na 'to.

Imbes na sumagot ay naramdaman ko na lang ang isang kamay nya na pinapasok nya sa loob ng suot kong shirt. It reached one of my breast and he squeezed it. Hindi lang ako nag rereact.

He licked the other side of my neck at napapitlag ako.

"Kael!" Saway ko.

Tumawa sya.

He grabbed the remote and turnes off the tv. Naramdaman ko na lang na umangat ako when he stood up. He cupped my butt at naglakad papasok sa kwarto while giving me wet kisses on my neck.

I groaned.

Inilapag nya ako sa kama, tapos naghubad sya ng tshirt at pantalon before he joined me in the bed. He got on top of me grinning, then lowered his self and kissed me.

I closed my eyes, felt the burning sensation his mouth has been giving me. His hands now successfully playing with my breasts. Inangat nya na ang bra ko, naka angat na rin ang tshirt na suot ko.

He parted our lips para matanggal na ang tshirt ko. He threw it somewhere. Tinanggal nya na rin ang pagkaka hook ng bra ko at tinapon rin iyon kung saan.

"I miss this." Anas nya while kissing me again.

Hindi ako sumagot.

His arousal in his boxers is already poking me. Ipinilupot ko ang mga paa ko sa bewang nya. His musky scent is all over the place. I can't get enough of him.

He sucked my n****e and his hand found my core. Ipinasok nya ang kamay nya sa panty ko and started playing with my clit.

Napabiling ako. "Ahhh K-Kael.."

He was sucking, playing and teasing with my breasts. Ramdam ko ang gigil nya. I played with his hair. Tinititigan nya ako habang ginagawa nya ang lahat ng iyon. I was so damn turned on.

"Kael!" I screamed when his two fingers finally made it's way inside me. "Ah! f**k!"

He kept his phase. His lips went up again and found my lips. He sucked my tongue anf lower lip like there's no tomorrow. He's on a roll.

He sat and took his fingers off me. I looked at him, and he on me as I saw him licked his two fingers that he inserted inside me. Pakiramdam ko ay tumaas lalo ang temperature ng katawan ko. I feel so freaking hot and bothered.

I sat up and prompt him to strip his boxers. Hinila ko ang garter non. Imbes ay nakangisi sya na lumayo ng bahagya sa akin.

"Someone's excited." Pang aasar nya.

I pouted. "Bilis na." All my inhibitions are gone, sobrang comfortable ako kay Mikael it added to the things I am more scared about him.

He chuckled. Tumayo sya mula sa kama at nagkusa na hubarin ang boxer nya. Then he stripped mine.

"Honey, on top." Mahinang sabi nya as he lay next to me.

I was confused at first. Nakatingin lang ako sa raging erection nya at napalunok ako. Hinila nya ang kamay ko ang guided me on top of him. Kinakabahan pa ako noong una.

"It's okay." He assured me.

I slowly sat into him, guiding his manhood inside me. I moaned as I felt how he slowly filled me in. I paused as I let him adjust inside me.

"You look so damn hot like that." Parang wala sa sarili na sabi ni Mikael habang nakatitig sa akin.

I felt the heat on my cheeks as he put his hands on my waist and motioned me to move. Nilagay ko ang mga kamay ko sa dibdib nya and I started to pump in and out of him.

"So tight! Ohhhh!" I felt his body tensed in every move I make.

I bit my lower lip of too much pleasure. Kitang kita ko kung paano nagugustuhan ni Mikael ang ginagawa ko. It made me more passionate in what I do.

"F-Faster.. Oh f**k, please faster!" He pleaded with closed eyes.

His throbbing manhood kept on hitting me on the right spot at ramdam ko na sa puson ko ang kasunod na mangyayari.

"Ohhh! Damn! Stop! Stop!" Maya maya ay sabi nya.

Nagtataka na tumigil ako.

"May mali ba?"

Umupo sya at natatawa na naman na umiling. "No, you did good. Here. My turn." He guided me to lay and he positioned his self in between me. "I could have come in no time if you did not stop." Mahinang paliwanag nya bago biglang umulos.

"Ohhhh! What the hell!" I hissed at him.

Ngumuso lang sya at nagsimula na namang gumalaw. Nakakapit ako sa mga braso nya na nas gilid ko. His broad chest, six pack abs and hot tattooes made me feel more desire.

He he lowered his self and we kissed. Magkayakap kami habang gumagalaw sya. Napasigaw na lang ako when I reached my peak and he's still moving.

"Ohhhh! f**k. What! Ah!" Pakiramdam ko mauubusan ako ng hininga sa ginagawa nya.

My nails dug into his skin. I just came and he's still moving fast, para akong mawawalan ng ulirat.

"Ohhh s**t. I'm coming!" Hiyaw nya bago bumagon and pulled his self on me. He stroked his self and came to my stomach.

The familiar heat came and I moaned too.

"Fuck." He cursed under his breathe.

His hair dishelved and he still looked so damn gogrgeous. May ilang butil ng pawis sa noo nya. Nagtama ang mga mata namin as we were both catching our breathe. Bigla kaming natawa.

I touch the liquid on my stomach and spread it all over. He closed his eyes and groaned bago sya bumangon. He came back with tissues and cleaned me.

Agad nya akong yinakap when he joined me again on the bed. Noon pa lang ako ulit nakaramdam ng hiya. Umiwas ako ng tingin sa kanya but he just held me close. We're still both naked under the sheet.

"Thank you for that mind blowing orgasm, Honey." Bulong nya, then gave me a kiss on the forehead.

"We're quits then." Mahinang sagot ko.

Tumawa sya tapos ibinaon ang ulo sa leeg ko.

"Wag ka muna agad umuwi bukas. Hmm?"

I smiled secretly. Naglalambing ba sya?

"May pupuntahan ako bukas ng hapon." I promised Neil na sasamahan ko sya since nag aya si Beth at ang asawa nya na mag lunch kami bukas.

Inangat nya ang ulo nya at kunot noo na nagtanong. "Where? Why?"

"Nagpapasama lang si Neil." Kibit balikat na sagot ko. "Ikaw, don't you want to find a work here? Teka, kailan ka babalik sa Lexembourg then?"

Napatigil sya saglit, parang kahit sya hindi pa naiisip yon. "I.. I don't know."

Hindi na lang ako sumagot.

"Sige. Tulog na tayo." Sabi ko na lang.

Tumango sya and we closed our eyes.

We're on the same routine when the next week came. I was looking forward na makasama sya ulit this weekend pero nagsabi sya na may out of town schedule daw sya.

I did not pressed the issue, although na disappoint talaga ako. Pakunswelo na lang na before, palagi kong sinasabi kila Nella, Claire, Sasha lalo na kay Laurie kapag sinasabi nila na namimiss nila mga bf nila na ang o.a nila kasi, madalas naman sila magkasama, tapos napunta ako ngayon sa sitwasyon nila.

I stayed home the whole weekend. Pumasyal ako sa main branch ng Purple Vanity para tumulong tulong doon. Naka kwentuhan ko sila Queenie at Oyie habang may customer sila.

Since ngayon na lang naman ako ulit naka dalaw since nagka trabaho na ako.

"Eh ang boyfriend mo, kailan namin makikita at makakaliskisan?" Biglang tanong ni Oyie.

Natawa ako. "Sinabi ba sa inyo ni Mamsi?"

"Korak. Yummy naman sa pagkaka describe nya." Si Queenie naman iyon.

"Tsaka na siguro, medyp busy pa sya."

"Busy saan?" Agad na tanong ni Oyie.

Hindi ako nakasagot. Oo nga, saan busy si Mikael?

Agad ko'ng naisip na kasama nya na naman si Irina. The last time na nag out of town sya, nagkita kami sa Puerto Galera at kasama nya si Irina. I really can't get to stop thinking na hindi lang sila close.

"Hoy, babae! Hindi ka na naka sagot." Untah ni Queenie.

"Nag out of town sya this weekened. Kasama yata mga kaibigan nya." Mahinanv sagot ko.

I tried na iiba na ang topic. Nainis lang kasi ako.

Imbes na ipahinga ko na lang ang gabi ko dahil maaga ako bukas, inaya ko si Neil na mag chill out. Alas kwatro ng hapon nang sunduin nya ako sa amin, isasama nya raw ako sa favorite resort nya.

He's supposed to go to that resort tonight at balak nya mag stay ng dalawang araw for relaxation. Pero ihahatid nya raw ako mamaya.

I tried to make myself jolly as usual para hindi nya mapansin na inis ako, baka magtanong pa sya.

We arrived at the resort. Doon nya nabanggit na nang malaman daw ni Beth na kasama nya ako dito, na excite daw sya.

"Let's take pictures then." Suggestion ko.

Malamang na papalakpak sa tuwa si Beth sa concept na naisip ko.

I was holding the camera in front of the mirror and i let Neil hug me from behind.

"This is uncomfortable but let' s do this." Bahagyang naka ngiti na sabi ni Neil.

Natawa na lang ako.

Maliligo na sana kami kaya naka two piece at fishnet na lang ako while Neil's on his boardshort. I took two images. Isa ang nakatingin kami pareho sa salamin, at isa ay tumatawa kami.

"Oh, i upload mo na para matuwa naman si Beth." Natatawa na inabot ko ang camera.

Naiiling naman na natatawa si Neil. "My friends would think I gone straight." Inilapag nya sa kama ng cottage namin ang camera. "And they can't blame me because they will see you and your body to die for." Nakatitig sa akin na sabi nya.

I giggled. "Stop right there, baka bigla na lang kita hilahin sa kama." Pilya na sabi ko.

Humalakhak sya. "You turn me on, don't worry."

Sabay kaming natawa at hinila ko na sya sa pool.

We enjoyed the night. Alas diyes nya ako hinatid at nagpa kita lang sya kay Mamsi bago sya bumalik sa resort.

The next morning, halos maubos ko ang lunch break ko kaka comment at kakatawa habang sinasagot ko ang mga comments nila Nella sa pictures namin ni Neil. They were all shocked to see it.

Neil uploaded our photo around 1am at pati mga kakilala nya ay nag comment na din.

Naisipan ko rin mag playful status. Since una, di ko pa naman ulit friend si Mikael and I don't think he would mind dahil alam nya naman na bakla si Neil.

I posted I MISS YOU ALREADY and tagged Neil before I resumed my work.

Mikael said na Wednesday pa sya makakabalik at ewan ko, hindi na ako umasa ng phone call or even message from him pero na disappoint na naman ako.

My reaction whenever my friends won't stop texting their men is very clear. Naiinis ako sa kanila lalo na at halos araw araw rin naman sila nagkikita sa campus. But with Mikael, isa o dalawang message lang naman sana.

I know, it's not a romantic relationship for him, pero pakiramdam ko hulog na hulog na ako sa kanya. I can't tell what I actually feel, pero nandoon yung longing na sana, naisip nya pa rin ako kahit hindi kami magkasama.

Linunok ko na ang pride ko at ako ang unang nag send ng message then turned my phone off.
