Let's Go For a Swim Sabay kaming naghapunan ni Alexander sa gabing iyon. Meg and Elle stayed in their room since they were still tired from the long travel they had. Sofia is energetic as always since her favorite sibling went home. Tahimik lang kaming kumakain sa hapag ng magbukas ng paksa si Tito Callixto. "Son, the Meyers are going to celebrate their Christmas with us this year." Imporma niya kay Zander. "Kakagaling lang nila this summer sa atin, pa." "Well, maybe they like staying with us. And their daughter seems very interested in you." I can feel Alexander's heated look towards his father. Nanatiling tahimik lang si Tita Alexandria at hindi na sumali pa sa usapan. "Do what you want, father." sagot ni Zander at huminto na sa pagkain. He drank his water from his glass and waited for me to finish my food. We went to the rooftop after that and stayed there watching the night sky full of stars while lying on the sun lounger. He's holding my hand while doing that. When I saw a
Leaving marks I didn’t feel any cold as his warm body covered mine. He kissed me all over my body, leaving marks in an area that I could cover with my clothing. I can feel his love bites under my breast and on my stomach. I can feel his hard thing puking in between my legs. It’s hard as steel. And I can feel excitement rushing through my veins. “Fuck.” malutong na mura ang lumabas na naman sa kanyang bibig. He is still kissing and licking my neck like a sweet candy. He then kissed me back on my lips torridly enough for me to only catch air to breathe. “Alexander..” I moaned his name over and over again. I can feel the gushing of liquid on my private part down there. I felt so high all of a sudden. I have never felt this emotion before. “Come for me, my sweet Hera.” Nanghihina ko siyang tiningnan after my long release. “I’m not yet done.” mahina niyang bulong. Nanlaki ang aking mata ng inilabas niya ang kanya mula sa pagkakatago sa kanyang munting suot. It is so hard and bi
Auburn Haired Girl Dumating na ang Meyer family sa mansion. Sinalubong sila nina Tita at Tito sa tanggapan. I haven't seen Thomas, only the girl and the old couple are here. The beautiful girl looked around like she was waiting for someone to come and greet her. Tita gives her cheek to cheek and a warm embrace but her eyes remain searching. Napadaan lang ako at tahimik na naglalakad para hindi makakuha ng atensyon. Alexander told me to come over at the tree house in the back of the mansion and I am heading there now. Pagpasok ko sa tree house ay nandun nga siya at nakaupo sa upuan na gawa sa Narra habang nagbabasa. "Hey," bati ko. I scanned all the books we have here and got a novel. I saw him reading the 'Art of War'. "Hi." bati niya sabay hila sa akin papalapit sa kanya. Napakandong tuloy ako sa mga hita niya. He put aside his book and embrace me. "You should continue reading, Zander." "Hmmm. I want to kiss you," he whispered. Kinurot ko ang kanyang tagiliran dahil umiral
Masaya kaming nag-uusap nina Meg at Elle habang bumiyahe papunta sa Centro. Meg shrieked in excitement when we finally arrived at the front door of the newly opened milk tea shop. "Let's go, gals." Yaya niya sa amin ni Elle. "Kuya, pakihintayin nalang kami or baka may gusto ka munang puntahan. Bumalik kana lang after an hour." bilin ni Elle kay Kuya Isko. I waved at Kuya Isko before Meg pulled me inside the shop. Dalawang mesa nalang ang bakante pagpasok namin. Agad naman na may sumalubong sa amin na babae pagkakita sa amin. "Diane!" magiliw na tawag ni Meg sabay beso-beso dito. She had a foreign features and she looks familiar to me kahit ngayon ko palang siya nakita. "Hi! Thanks for coming!" Iginiya niya kami sa pang-apatan na mesa. Meg introduced me to her. Well, she's kind! She had this friendly aura around her. Nagtawag siya ng serbidora para mabigyan kami ng menu. "Maiwan ko muna kayo. Order all you like, it's on me." she said as she gave us a wink. She went to the
Alexander slammed the door behind us right after we entered the tree house. He covered my mouth with his hand and leaned me on the wooden wall. Then he whispered as he put both of his hands on my waist holding me firmly. "I'm going to punish you now, my naughty Hera." He crashed his lips to mine. He bit my lips and sucked my tongue. Then his right hand went to my neck while still kissing my lips torridly. Then he stopped and looked at me. I stared at his red lips. I can't believe how soft it was. He licked his lips and attacked my lips once again. I bit my lips to stop my moan when Zander's lips traveled from my jaw down to my neck. "Zander.. someone might barge in.." "Shh. I will fire whoever it is." He didn't stop from what he was doing. His lips went to my shoulder blades as he slipped the strap of my dress revealing my bare shoulder. His hand went under my dress and played with my mounds. "Stop biting your lips, it might bleed. Moaned my name, my sweet.
Sa mga sumunod na araw ay nanatili lang ako sa aking kwarto upang hindi ko makasagupa si Victoria. Yes. Ako na ang iiwas para sa ikakatahimik niya. I don't want any complications especially when it could be avoided. I respect her feelings to Alexander. And since they are already arranged to each other, I'll give space for them while she's here staying. Hindi masyadong mahirap sa akin ang gawin ito dahil sa simula pa lang, alam kong hindi ako ang nararapat na babae kay Zander. I know my place but I went overboard this time. Nagpadala ako sa aking nararamdaman sa kanya na saglit kong nakalimutan ang totoong sitwasyon ko. Nakikitira lang ako sa kanila. And with that, I am grateful. Nagbasa lang ako ng aklat sa loob ng aking kwarto at bago ako lumabas ay palage kong tinitingnan muna kung nasa paligid ba si Victoria o kaya si Zander. Yes. I am avoiding them both. Napatingin ako sa aking pintuan ng may kumatok ng marahan. I ignored it and continued reading my book but a knock occu
And because of that incident I accidentally saw, my mind boils in annoyance every time I saw Alexander. He tried hard to get my attention and tried the most possible way to talk to me but every time he attempted, I'd walk away and pretend I didn't know what he wanted. Mamayang gabi ang Christmas Eve and I haven't bought anything yet for Christmas presents. I went upstairs and knocked on Meg's room. "Come in!" sigaw niya mula sa loob. "Hi!" bati ko sa kanya. "Helena!" sigaw ni Meg sabay lapit sa akin. She's just playing with her phone while lying on her bed. "Pupunta kayo sa Centro ngayon?" I ask her, "I guess so. Do you want to come?" Masaya niyang sabi. I nodded. "Then, let's go!" Yaya niya sabay hila sa akin papunta sa kwarto ni Elle. Agad namang nagbukas ng pinto si Elle ng kumatok kami ng isang beses. We went downstairs and there we saw Victoria. She's following Alexander like a damn stalker. "Hey, brother! You got yourself a weird tail!" Elle comme
"Oh no! The dragon Alexander is here." mahinang sabi ni Meg sa kinakabahang tono.Alexander's stride is so fast that the few meters distance we had, is nothing. Hindi agad nakaalis sina Meg at Elle dahil sa bilis at biglaang pagdating niya.He hold my arms firmly and put me behind him covering me from the guy's stares. Then, he looked at the guy face to face."What do you want?" nanghahamon niyang tanong dito. The guy looked at him confusedly."Stop him, Hera." agarang sabi ni Elle.Natataranta kong hinawakan ang braso ni Alexander. Tiningnan niya ako at sinamantala ko ang pagkakataong iyon at hinila siya palabas ng mall kung saan naka-park ang kanyang sasakyan. Good thing at nagpahila naman! "Hera is her name!" sigaw ni Elle sabay hila kay Meg palabas ng mall. They both laughed when Zander turned to them and gave them an annoyed look.Hindi ko na nilingon pa ang kinaroroonan ng lalaki.Binuksan ni Alexander ang pintuan sa passenger seat at pinasakay ako. I saw Meg and Elle waving th
Dmitri glanced at Alexander and raised his hands while grinning, Alexander was giving him a death glare. I rolled my eyes and held Alexander’s arm.“See you, Dmitri.” nakangiti kong paalam sa kanya dahil tinatawag na siya ng kanyang mga kasamahan. He smiled and nodded. A frowning Alexander faced me. I laughed and pinched his cheeks. So cute.“Stop being grumpy, love.” I tease him. I saw how his lips formed into a smile. He snaked his arm on my waist and pulled me for a seat. “Gosh, Alexander. We're having fun here. Bumalik ka nga doon sa mga kasama mo,” sabi ni Meg na ngayon ay umiinom na naman.“No,” maiksing sagot ni Alexander. He put his chin on my shoulder habang nakapulupot pa rin ang kanyang kamay sa aking bewang. “You're so clingy,” Meg commented. “I'll just get back to dance. Enjoy.” Alexander grinned at what Meg said. Meg rolled her eyes as she sashayed to the dance floor.“Were you having fun?” Tanong ni Zander. Tumango ako. I looked at the people who surrounded us. They
I cutely wave my hand at Alexander who is frowning now. It's Saturday and we are going to the Zenith Club. Pero hindi ako sasabay sa kanya. Meg and Elle insisted that I should go with them and I agreed. Magkikita na lang kami ni Zander mamaya. “Bye, bro.” Nang-aasar na paalam ni Elle. Alexander glared at her and never said a word instead he looked at me with puppy eyes. “Yuck! Stop that Alexander,” saway ni Meg. “Tss. You two are annoying. Come, my baby, I want a hug.” Alexander said as he opened his arms wide for an embrace. I chuckled, went to him, and hugged him. “I'll wait for you there,” he said. “Hmm. Susunod kami,” sagot ko sabay bitaw sa yakap niya. He kissed my forehead before he went inside his car and drove. “Finally! Alexander is so dramatic.” sabi ni Elle sabay hawak sa aking kamay. “Let's go and change!” Excited niyang sabi. Meg gave me a short black dress with a slit on its side. My back is bare but good thing it has a sleeve. I wore black knee-high boots. Elle did
Sinamahan ako ni Alexander sa pagpunta sa PRC upang mag-file ng aking application sa exam. Nasa loob ng mall ang kanilang opisina. I greeted the security personnel before I went inside the office together with Alexander. I waited for my name to be called after I submitted the form. Mahigpit tatlumpung minuto rin bago ako matapos sa pag-process nito. Nakaupo lang si Alexander at tahimik na hinintay ako. I can't help but glanced at him once a while. He looked so good even by just simply sitting on a waiting lounge. Nagulat ako ng may mga nakakakilala sa kanya. Others were even taking a photo with him and they're giggling. Even here in Metro, he's popular. “Wanna go see a movie?” Tanong ni Alexander ng makalabas na kami sa opisina ng PRC. We're walking side by side and heading to a escalator. “Hmm. I wanna go see a bookstore,” sagot ko. He looked at me and laughed. Kinuha niya ang aking kamay at ipinagdaop ang aming mga palad. “Alright, Your Highness.” Umirap ako sa kanya at hinil
Luckily, I had a good sleep even though it was my first time here. I got off in my bed when I saw in the wall clock that it was already seven in the morning. I went to the bathroom to take a quick shower. Hinayaan ko lang ang aking mga damit sa aking maleta dahil natulog na ako agad kagabi pagkatapos maglinis ng katawan kaya ngayon ay hinalungkat ko ito at kinuha ang mga reading materials at inilagay sa study table. Hindi ko na hinintay si Alexander na dumating kagabi dahil sa pagod. Hindi pa ako sanay sa mahahabang oras na biyahe kaya siguro nakatulog ako kaagad. Nagsuot ako ng white short sleeve dress at sneakers. Magpa-file ako ngayon ng application for board exam. Magta-taxi na lang siguro ako papunta doon dahil baka abala si Alexander ngayon. I ponytailed my hair after I blow dried it. I put on light makeup and a lip tint. Suot ko rin ang necklace na binigay ni Alexander sa akin. Dala ko sa aking bisig ang aking mga documents na nakalagay sa isang plastic envelope at lumaba
A week had passed. Nasa Metro na si Alexander at abala sa expansion ng kanilang negosyo. Ako naman ay abala sa paghahanda sa aking board exam. Si Dmitri at Rico pumunta na kahapon sa Metro para sa kanilang review. Si Trixie naman ay nagsimula na sa kanyang training sa kanilang plantation. Halos nasa kwarto lang ako buong araw. I take my review seriously. Goal ko ang maging isa sa topnotchers kaya puspusan ang aking pag-aaral at pagre-review. Alexander and I call each other every night to talk and to know our whereabouts every day. Nakikinig lang ako sa kanyang mga kwento kasi wala naman akong masyadong ganap dito sa mansion maliban sa pag-aaral. He's really busy and sometimes, I told him to take a rest already but he always wanted to talk to me before we went to sleep. Meg and Elle went back to the Metro a week after Alexander left. Meg will go to Paris to take a crash course in Fashion designing after her summer vacation while Elle will proceed for medical course. Si Sofia naman a
Nasa coffeeshop na kaming apat at naghihintay sa aming order. Pansin ko ang mga bahagyang pagsulyap sa mesa namin ng ibang customers. Dmitri got our orders when our number was called. “I am going to miss you guys,” sabi ni Trixie ng inilapag na ni Dmitri ang aming orders. “Nami-miss din kita Trix. Magiging abala na tayong lahat next week,” sabi ko. “Well, let's keep in touch,” Dimitri said. I nodded. “Pagkatapos ko sa board exam ay magta-trabaho agad ako dahil kailangan kong mag-ipon,” si Rico naman ngayon. “Ang dami mo na sigurong ipon, Rico,” komento ko. Ever since I got to know him, he's hardworking and knows how to manage his money so well. Hindi ko siya nakikitang bumili ng kahit anong bagay at pansin ko ang pagiging masinop niya sa pera. “Hindi rin. Ilang taon pa siguro ang aabutin ko para maging financially free,” sagot niya. “Basta bro, yung sinasabi ko sayo. Don't let your money sleep in the bank. Invest it on something good, better invest it on stocks," payo ni Dmitr
I was daze after the kiss we have shared. Hindi ko magawang tumingin sa mga kasamahan namin pagkatapos ng halik. Someone fake a coughed and laughed na sinundan naman ng iba para mawala ang katahimikan. I glanced at Alexander at parang wala lang sa kanya, nagawa pa niyang iyakap ang kanyang kamay sa aking bewang. I tried to get off his arm but it was like steel. It holds firmly on my waist. I looked at him but he just raised his eyebrow. Kaya kahit nahihiya man ay hinayaan ko na lang. “Are you ashamed of me?” mahinang tanong niya sa akin. Agad akong umiling dahil hindi naman iyon ang rason. “Next!” Sigaw ni Meg na kaagad namang sinunod ni Elle. “Kanina pa kita gustong halikan upang ipakita sa kanila na hindi ka na pwede pang ligawan Hera dahil may boyfriend ka na. And that's me,” Alexander in his menacing voice. I can feel the curious stares directing at me. We continued playing until one in the morning. Hanggang sa umuwi na ang mga bisita. No one dared to ask a question about us. B
Malapit ng mag alas onse pero gising na gising pa rin ang diwa ng mga tao at nagkakatuwaan pa kami nina Meg at Elle kasama ang iba nilang kaibigan na taga dito sa bayan. Sumali na rin si Rico sa amin dahil iilan lang din naman kaming magkaka-edad na dumalo sa pagtitipon. Alexander was busy talking with older men especially those who were inclined in the business world together with Tito Callixto. While the older women were talking happily, enjoying their wine. Naglalaro kami ngayon ng spin the bottle at pinalibutan namin ang bilugang mesa. Si Elle ay may hawak ng bote at siya rin mismo ang nagpaikot nito. We cheered when the bottle pointed at the girl named Rose. Dare ang kanyang pinili at naghiyawan ang iba dahil sa excitement. Elle gave her the dare. “Kiss the most handsome tonight.” Nakangising sabi ni Elle. Nanlaki naman ang mata ni Rose at bahagyang sumilip sa kinaroroonan ni Alexander. “H-he’s busy!” Sabi niya. Tumaas ang kilay ni Elle at lumingon sa paligid. “Sino ba yang
Hinampas ko sa braso si Alexander. Umungol siya na wari ay nasaktan. Aba’t ang OA naman ng isang to. Napakahina nga lang ng hampas ko. Tiningnan ko siya ng masama pero ngumiti lang siya. Ayan na naman ang nakakatunaw niyang ngiti. Minsan na nga lang ngumingiti, nakakatunaw pa. “Bakit mo sinabi sa kanila na girlfriend muna ako?” Mahina kong tanong sa kanya. He stopped and faced me. Kaya napahinto rin tuloy ako. Then, he wore a serious face. “I didn't know we should make it a secret this whole time, Hera. We've been in a relationship for five years, and I didn't say anything about us. Bago ako umalis ay girlfriend na kita. Did you forget about it?” Nakataas kilay niyang tanong. I pouted and shook my head. “Paano kung malaman ng parents mo?” Tanong ko. This time, his eyebrows furrowed. Na para bang nagtataka siya kung bakit ko tinanong yun. “Takot kang malaman nila?” Tanong niya. Tumango ako. Takot din ako para sa aking sarili, Alexander. Hindi ko pa rin maisip na ako ang narara
