Chapter 9

Maria is sitting in her seat outside Robby's office, she has finally quit being a stripper and she wants to prove to herself that she can be more respectful in front of Robby. She needs 8million pesos to complete the remaining bank loan or get their house back.

Even against her will to accept the money it gives to her every time they have sex. Because she had accepted to herself that she wanted the man. "Excuse Miss?" She looked up and saw the man approaching her.

"Ohh Long time no see Ms. Cat Eyes." The man smiled at her, Maria looked surprised and shook hands with the man. "Sir Robby is currently on meeting, do you have anything to ask?" Maria asked here and picked up the Ipad. "I see, you don't seem to remember me. Do you remember the guy you punched inside the VIP casino room?" The man promised, Maria's eyes rolled as she remembered the man she had punched before. Three years ago and now he is facing it again.

This is the man who locked her inside the Vip Casino room and wanted to take a video of her while having sex. "You look better with your position, that's a new life?" He teased her and tightened his grip on her hand as he grabbed her and kissed her. "Mr. Dave Dela Cueva?" Robby emphatically mentioned the man's voice and it looked bad on Maria who sat down and typed. "Oh Mr. Robby! Good day! You have a beautiful secretary here. Maybe I can borrow her sometime for one night again?" The other employees looked at what the man said so Maria bowed down and tried to focus on what she was doing.

"Come inside my office." Robby's orders.

Dave walked into the office and had a pissed off look.

"I didn't know you had a hot secretary? Do you know she's an escort a stripper." The man told Robby and hung up the papers he was going to sign. This is his Finance Manager, he used to be his friend but since he dropped him regarding his use of different women, he no longer trusts him. It's good that Robby is good at keeping secrets, especially when these are really confidential about his life.

"Fuck your opinion Dave, get out!" He yelled at it and let the man out and laughed as he closed the door. "MARIA!" Maria was surprised to hear Robby's loud scream inside his office. Sh entered immediately and closed its door. "Why?" she asked a curious question here.

"When did you become that man ?!" It said angrily.

“Three years ago.” A question and answer.

"He's a dirtbag Robby, I didn't expect him to work here, I hate that guy. He followed me for a year until he stopped as well. Now that I've seen him again." When she complains here.

"Do you want me to kill him?" The man approached her and took her hand.

"What! What are you talking about" he was shocked when he asked.

"I know that guy, he'll drop me on my Parent once he finds out you're one of my girls." Robby said to him. Maria was surprised by what he said and backed away from Robby. What he said "One of the women" echoed in her mind.

"I mean my girls before I met you," he explained to her, knowing that she had slipped into what was said. "I'll go outside." Maria averted her eyes and went back to work.

She admitted that she was hurt by what he said. She hoped that it would like her but it was the man who slipped that she was not alone. Robby calls her on her cellphone but she doesn't answer .. "Why are you acting? You know she's a bitch, what is it, Maria, you're fine." He whispered to himself and continued typing. She saw his Mother Sophia approaching Robby's office. She struggled to get to work while she waited for five o'clock to get home immediately.

"Ms. Williams" said the lady to her. "Mom what are you doing?" Robby whispered obviously holding back his Mother. "May I  talk to you? Ah, we have a family dinner next Saturday? To get to know you better." Robby's mother shook hands with her and smiled, she knew her smile was different from hers. "Ah, oh sure Madam." The lady smiled at him and Robby, the lady left and saw him spray alcohol after holding her hand.

"Don't come." It said poorly. "He'll notice you more if I don't go Robby. I can handle myself." she struggled hard at it and put away his belongings when she saw it was time to go home. "Wait for me in the car park I'll take you home." The man whispered again. "No thanks, I can go home alone." she answered and she walked out of the office high up. Every day since she started working here, the employees here have been looking at her and talking about her.

Apart from the fact that people are used to doing this, she just keeps going. Maria took a taxi so that the man would not chase her. She peeked at her necklace inside the wallet and looked at her brother's face. "Just a little James, when I'm done redeeming our house we'll be able to find you." she whispered while talking about his brother's photo.

She reached the house and she saw a piece of flower stem at his gate. It's a different day to put flowers at her gate. "Who's going to put it on? Is it really Robby? Victor is impossible because we're just friends, especially since he doesn't feel like it after one week." He has already collected some flowers in the flower vase inside the house, he also doesn't throw away the withered ones because he squeezes them inside the book he is reading and lets them wither there.

He sat down first to rest and he saw the book The Alchemist. "I'm in chapter one. I can't even finish this book." He was so busy and tired. At work and Robby who works for him when it wants to take over his body anytime in his house. He also sat for a few hours and read the book. "Huh?" He saw a picture of Victor stuck inside the book. "What is this? Rat scare?" He laughed and looked at the man holding the black dog. Victor still has long hair here and his mustache and beard are not yet fuzzy. "Infairenes huh? You're handsome here."

he looked at the back of the photo and saw a written and letter -looking woman.

To my brother, one shot picture with our pet Beck! I know you want to become an Author someday. May God and this book guide you and don't stop chasing your dreams!

~ J.W.S

"J.W.S? Same initials with my brother? Jame's initials are Victor's brother? There's no letter S for smith. When will I be able to find you James!" He stood up and looked at the newspapers he had paid for to spread his missing brother. But no one replied to him except for the cheap comoany he only published it. He returned the book to the room and finally took a shower. He heard some knocks on his door, because the dogs were also barking so he was let out of his bathroom.

"What's that? It's late?" He saw the man in corporate attire on the young man's side. "Maybe Robby," he mirrored first before opening the door. He turned on a towel and opened the door. "What?" When he is cursed, he pretends. "MMMH!" When he struggles with his mouth covered.

"MMMH !!" The man closed the door and carried her inside her room. He tied his hand and put a handkerchief over his mouth .. "Only in the Company will I see you again Maria." The man pulled her leg and tied it to the other end of the bed. The towel covering her dress was removed. "Dave please !! Stop!" He disobeyed here

Hirap siyang mag salita at hindi gaano maintindihan dahil may panyo siya sa bibig. "TULONG PLEASE!! Please!!" Sigaw niya at hinahalikan ng lalaki ang binti niya papunta sa maselang parte. "Mmmh I miss your pussy baby." Mariin na pinasok nito ang daliri sa maselang parte. "Please! DAVE! STOP!" Umiyak si Maria dahil kahit anong pag hingi ng tulong niya, walang tutulong sakaniya bukod sa walang kapit bahay na kumakausap sakaniya at lahat nito ay galit sakaniya dahil alam nilang mababang klase siya ng babae na pupwedeng manira ng pamilya.

"TULONG!ohhh DAVE!" Walang tigil ang lalaki sa pag likot ng mga daliri nito. "You want my dick inside you? I know you and Robby, may relasyon kayo right?" Tanong nito habang hinahalikan ang dibdib niya. "Tulungan niyo ako!" Pag iyak niya dahil khait bayarang babae siya ayaw niyang mabastos ng ganito. "FUCK You!" Nagulat si Dave ng makaramdam ng suntok at sinakal siya ng lalaking walang santo na pag bugbog sakaniya.

Nakita niyang umiiyak si Maria habang nakatali at walang saplot. "DO NOT  TOUCH JULIET!" Sigaw ng lalaki at tumakbo si Dave takot na takot lumabas ng bahay

"Victor, help me." Mahinang sinabi ni Maria. Kinuha ni Victor ang kumot at tinakip sa katawan nito bago niya alisin ang tali nito sa paa, kamay at bibig. Yumakap ito sa lalaki ng sobrang higpit. "I'm scared. Please don't leave me alone here." Pag hagulgol nito."victor natatakot ako." Saad ulit nito at siniksik ang sarili sa bisig ng lalaki.

"I'm here, don't cry. Wala ng pupwedeng manakit sayo o gumawa pa ng masama," akmang hihiwalay si Victor sa pag kakayakap niya dito pero ayaw siyang bitiwan ni Maria. "Please, dito kalang." Pakikiusap uli ng dalaga. "I'll close the door at ichecheck yung bintana mo o kahit saan pa na pupwede ka niya ulit looban." Sinabi nito pero hindi siya binitiwan ni Maria.

"Mag bihis ka muna sige. Halika." Sinamahan siya ng lalaki at tumalikod para makapag damit siya ng maayos. Naisip niya ang katawan nitong nakita niya for the first time. Pag tapos yumakap si Maria sakaniya mula sa likuran, "Dito kana muna please." Pakikiusap nito at humihikbi, humarap si Victor sakaniya at pinunasan ang luha niya. "Isasara ko yung pinto maupo ka dito. "Sasama ako. Baka nandito pa siya." Sinabi nito at hinawakan ang laylayan ng tshirt niya. Naawa siya sa itsura nito na ang gulo ng buhok at halatang kakaligo lang, nakita niya din ang bakas ng kagat sa braso nito.

Kasama niya ang babae hanggang sa pag lock ng gate, pinto at bintana. Para itong bata na nakahawak sa laylayan ng Tshirt niya. "Matulog kana sa kwarto mo, dito nalang ako sa sala. Teka kumain kanaba?" Umiling lang ito. Napansin niya ang mga bulaklak na binibigay niya dito ay wala ng petals at nakalbo ang sunflower, tanging mga stems nalang ang nandoon.

"I will cook?" Tanong niya dito, hindi sumagot ang babae at sumunod lang sakaniya kung nasaan siya. Nakayuko padin ito at ayaw ipakita ang mukha, kahit left and right ang pag lalakad niya nakasunod padin ito. Ginawa nalang niya ng sandwich ang babae dahil gabi narin. "Kumain kana." Sinabi nito pero umiyak lang. "hey, don't cry nandirito na ako." Tinabihan niya ito ng mas malapit at tinap ang likod. "He was a nightmare! I met him last three years ago, ganito din nag ginawa niya saakin, sapilitan sa loob ng VIP room pag tapos gusto niyang videohan nag ginagawa namin. Nerd siya, hindi ko alam kung he's into drugs kaya ganiyan siya mag isip. Natatakot ako baka balikan nanaman niya ako." Takot na sinabi nito.

"Saan ba kayo nag kita niyan ulit?" Tanong ni Victor dito. "Sa office, kung saan ako nag tatrabaho kay Robby." Saad nito. "Bakit hindi ka protektahan ng boyfriend mo? Ang yaman niya bakit hindi kaman lang niya tulungang mag lipat ng mas higher ang security. Ano bang klaseng boyfri--" hindi natuloy ang sinabi nito ng pinutol ni Maria. "Hindi ko siya boyfriend, wala kaming relasyon." Sinabi nito at tumingin sa lalaki.

"Kahit na, palagi ka niyang pinupuntahan dito pag tapos simpleng pag proteka hindi niya magawa?" Galit na sinabi ni Victor.

"Bakit alam mong lagi siyang nandito?" Pag tatanong ni Maria sakaniya. "Ah, eh kasi madalas akong napapadaan dito." Pag sisinungaling niya, hindi lang alam ni Maria na palagi siyang pinupuntahan ng binata. "Ah ganon ba, salamat buti dumating ka.kung hindi nababoy na niya ako, kahit pokpok ako Ayoko naman na ganon ang itrato saakin. Ayoko ng ganon kahit alam king imposible na ang may rumespeto saakin." Malungkot na sinabi nito.

"May respeto ako sayo." Diretsong sinabi ni Victor sakaniya, mata sa mata. Ngunit naunang nag iwas tingin si Victor. "Gusto ko sanang ipabasa sayo yung hanggang chapter five kong nagawa, para malimutan mo rin yong nangyari kanina." Pag iwas sa topic nito. "Ah sige, babasahin ko. Oo nga pala may ibibigay ako sayo" hinatak niya ang lalaki para samahan siyang pumasok sa kwarto. Kinuha niya ang litrato nitong naka ipit sa libro. "Naiwan mo yata sa loob ng Book." Saad nito. "Ohh thanks! Hinahanap ko ito, nandito pala." Pag ngiti niya dito pero matamlay padin ang itsura nito. "Kapatid mo ang may bigay niyan?" Saad nito. "Actually libro niya yang binigay ko sayo, dahil gusto kolang ishare din sayo yung storya kaya binigay kona," sinabi nito at nagulat si Maria.

"Won't he look for it? He might get angry?" Mary asked him. "No, this photo is important, this was our last photo when we were still happy. By the way, eat that." When he is here. "I don't want to, I just want to rest," the woman said and sat on the bed. "All right, I'll sleep outside." When the man said goodbye and closed his door.

He just looked around before closing his eyes. "Robby, I hope you're the one here" he whispered while hugging the pillow. "Case impossible, you'll like me more than sex." Victor, on the other hand, was just staring at the celing while lying down. "Does he have an idea that I'm the one giving the flowers?" He sighed and what happened to the girl earlier went through his brain again. "I don't want to see a woman cry. Maybe I like many girls to have one night stand with me, but this kind of fragile woman. They don't desevre to be treated like this, tho she works like that." He talked to himself and closed his eyes to sleep.

It was three o'clock in the morning and Maria was still not asleep. She was still nervous that the man might come back to her. He got up after a quick bath, and slowly left the room. He saw the man resting his head with both hands raised and feet raised. He approached it and knelt down to look at the sleeping man with his pillow and placed it on the floor next to the sofa so that he could sleep next to Victor.

He heard its breath so quietly, he forced himself to sleep until it was already asleep. The man was startled to hear some growls and sobs. "Help" she whispered and she saw Maria lying on the floor. He got up and lifted it to lie on the sofa and he lay down on the floor. "Fuck" he was surprised as the woman fell on his body and hugged. "It's just your movement to sleep." He grabbed her hair and just let Maria hug him while he didn't hold her back.

Maria woke up at noon, it was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon and now she was awake. He felt the soft thing on his lips and when he opened it he was looking into the eyes of Victor who was also staring at him.

Their lips were touching, Maria stood up and stared at Victor staring at her. "I'am so-" the man kissed her slowly and without force.

He followed her kiss as if ordering her to obey him.

He laid her down and the man sat on her. She grabbed the man's soft hair and his kiss went even deeper wanting to enter her mouth. He felt her tongue go with him. His kiss went down to her neck but the man didn't touch her on the part of her body he just kissed her. "Mhh, Maria Juliet." She moaned as Maria herself took her hand to place it on the woman's chest. Mary was obsessed with the man's kiss.

Kiss that robby doesn't do with her, or like the other man she's slept with. "Ohhh gosh Vic." Mary growled when she felt his warm palm on the lower part of it, she was the one who ordered the man where to hold her.

"Ohhh myy, yes." It gasped as the man manipulated his body. He wanted to like what it was doing, different and he felt the heat more.

She took off her silk shorts and the man went to the delicate part.

"You are so beautiful Juliet." The man whispered as he kissed her part high and low, "ohh Yes. Vic, oh god!" He got so caught up in himself that he no longer knew how to react to what it was doing. Maria got up as she took off her pants while the man kissed her chest. He looked at the lower part of it and held the delicate part of the man with his eyes closed while looking for his leg, "Oh shit," he bit his lip when he saw the man's part.

She swallowed as he pulled her so that the man could hug her. She positioned herself on the man who was going crazy in her chest. "Ohhh god!" He raised himself again to feel that the end of the man had just begun. The man held both of her hips and there they met each other. "Mmh, Victor." Mary growled at the man's thigh.

*** RING ***

Next, the sound of the cellphone stopped the two of them. They looked at each other and seemed to have been poured cold water to wake up to the relationship. Victor dodged first, he reached for Maria's dmait and he fixed it. "Fuck this not good." The man whispered. "What?" Maria asked. "I can't, I'm sorry." Buntal ng lalaki sakaniya. Maria got dressed nicely and held Victor's hand.

"I don't have money Maria. I can't give you everything, I can't have you. I can't buy you. I'am not the right man for you. Pleaae forgive me I'am so sorry, "The man averted his eyes and quickly left the house.

It was as if it had pierced her heart to hear this from the man. "What does he mean? He sits on the sofa and thinks about what the man said." He likes me? More than friends more than my past? What's that? We make out a snake. Aaah! "He pulled himself together and to his surprise Robby appeared at the door." Why didn't you come in !? "he asked angrily. He was still angry, and he didn't even greet her about what happened to him kagabe," I'am not feeling well Robby, go home first. "He got up and entered the room, he followed her and stood beside him." Don't go right to our Family Dinner, my Parents will insult you. "The man told him

"I'm used to it, I'm not rude to refuse a big man. Go home Robby, maybe someone will see you here at the pokpok house." He lay down and turned to the man, "What's wrong with you? I'm paying you right, aren't I?" He said. "Yeah you're paying for a whore like me, please I'm just not in the mood to have sex."
