Umakyat kaagad ako sa taas at dumiretso sa kuwarto ni Troy upang silipin ang lagay nito. I'm really worried about him. Naabutan ko si Nanay Violetta na ginagamut ang sugat sa mukha nito. Marahil ay siya na lang ang gising sa mga kasambahay namin sa mga oras na 'to. Ugali na kasi ni Nanay Violetta na hintayin ako hanggang sa aking pag-uwi saka siya matutulog."Oh anak, nandito ka na pala."I stared at Troy and found that he got bruises at kasalanan ko kung bakit nagkakaganito siya ngayon."Susmaryusep! Tignan mo itong Kuya mo at nakipagbasag-ulo na naman daw. Naku! Siguradong sermon na naman ang matatanggap niya bukas pagdating ng mga magulang ninyo."Yeh, I remember na bukas pala uuwi sila Daddy mula Macau."Siya nga pala, kumain ka na ba? Sandali at ipaghahanda kita." "Kumain na ho ako, Nay." I didn't mean to lie. Sadyang hindi lang talaga ako nagugutom. After all what happened today? I doubt that I could feel the emptiness of my stomach."Gano'n ba, anak? O siya matulog ka na at p

All manners of distress outcomes are running through my mind as Rev disappeared from my sight. Troy jogs along a course leading to the door and locked it up. I cast a sidelong glance at him when he stares at me with tenderness. Umahon ako mula sa aking kinauupuan at tinungo ang mini refrigerator. I'm looking for a cold water to chill my nerves down pero nagbago ang isip ko nang nakita ko ang brandy sa loob ng shelf. I did not bother to get a glass and I just take a shot straight from the bottle. Troy caught me in that very state. I flinch when he steals the bottle from my hand. “Dammit, Averie. Stop acting like a sicko, will you?” His teeth were gritting. I manage to stare at him emotionless.“Get out and leave me alone!” Malamig kong saad. His expression softens as he approach me. Umurong ako ulit. “I said, leave me alone! Don't you have enough sense of hearing with you? My God, Troy!”“Wrong. I'm just not that overwrought with your actions. Stop pushing me away, princess. Stop

After we discussed the contract ay nagkaroon pa kami ng chikahan sa loob ng conference room. What I didn't know ay medyo madaldal pala itong si Natalie and I find it amusing. Kaya naman ay madali silang nagkasundo ni Claudia na isa ring madaldal.Halos silang dalawa lang naman ang nag-uusap habang ako ay lihim na pinagkakaabalahan ang cellphone ko. I'm texting Troy dahil hindi na ito bumalik sa conference room.Nababahala ako baka nainis iyon sa pinag-uusapan namin kanina.“Oy, ikuwento mo naman kung saan mo nakilala si Troy? Well knowing him, hindi naman iyon nakikipagkaibigan sa mga babae kaya big deal sa 'kin nang malaman kong close pala kayo.” Nagkaroon ako ng interes sa bagong paksang binuksan ni Claudia. Nakita ko ang pagliwanag ng mukha ni Natalie at excited naman itong nagkuwento. “Actually schoolmate ko siya dati noong college.” Kumikinang ang mga mata nito na tila kinikilig habang niri-reminisce ang nakaraan.They were schoolmate in college? I'm clueless. Matagal na pala si

Just like in the most case, Troy does the undressing in my behalf. He unzips the lengthy zipper at the back of my dress without breaking the passionate kiss we're sharing. I do not want to let go of his lips, too. Nang napagtagumpayan niyang alisin ang aking saplot ay wala itong sinayang na segundo at agad na sinunggaban ang ngayong nakabalandra kong mga dibdib. Para siyang nauuhaw na sanggol na baliw na baliw na pinakahihigop ang magkabilaan kong ѷtong. Inarko ko ang aking gulugod sa labis na sensasyong nadarama habang pilit pinagsasawaan ng bibig ni Troy ang aking dibdib. He's kneading and sucking it like there's no next time.“Oh god, Troy...” I moan aloud, my skin feels like burning as I was clutching my hands onto his bold shoulder for a support. Dahil kung hindi ko gagawin iyon ay baka matumba ako sa kinatayuyuan ko ngayon.He releases my tits and brings his lips against mine once again as he guided me to rest my bottom on the edge of the spacial air bed. He does remove my pan

Horrified.That's all I am feeling at this very moment. Slowly, I feel the irregular introductory rate of air into my lungs. I totally run out of words as I stare at Trayce fearfully.“Trayce...” Troy trails calmly. Holy smokes! How can he still remains calm after our very own cousin, Trayce caught us?I look at Trayce again. Well, I can not pull my eyes off him, and my tonsure prickles knowing that I couldn't figure out those expressions I'm expecting he will have. Like Troy, he's also quite untroubled. What the effing hell is happening? Bakit ang kakalmado ng dalawa? My mouth gape at him. I know it's too late for this. Trayce tilts his head a bit. “Trayvon's coming up this way. I didn't mean to intrude into your privy moment but you should get out now and find another time to run on.”What the fūck? “Trayce... H–how do you...” I stammered stupidly. Shock printed clearly in my dying voice. I glance at Troy as he holds my waist firmly. What's with these people?May alam ba si Tr

My mind is telling me to quit staring at them but my eyes were trailing me to their direction. Seeing them together is like a torture— a deadly torture. Kaya ba hindi na niya ako nahintay kanina kasi pinuntahan niya iyong si Natalie para sunduin? I tried to muster up the courage to not feel hurt but it is do difficult to deal with it. Parang ipinapamukha ngayon sa 'kin ng mundo na deserve ko ang masaktan. Tama nga naman. Nararapat lang sa akin itong sakit. Now all I could see is my worst nightmare after having the best dream of my life— being with him in the dark.Hindi ko namalayan na humigpit na pala ang pagkakahawak ko sa 'king kopita until I felt a warm hand touching mine. I lift my gaze only to see that it was Trayce. Hindi ko napansin na nasa likod ko na pala 'to. He is blankly staring at my goblet. “Keep your mind in your drink. You might spill it, Averie.” “Oh I'm s—sorry.” I nearly stammered. Mabilis ko na lang na inubos ang laman nitong alak nang bitawan ni Trayce ang k
