2021-09-12 19:18:49Inalis niya ang hawak sa brasong nakapulupot sa kaniyang bewang. Hinawakan niya ang kamay na nakatakip sa bibig niya at sinubukan alisin iyon. Kingsley noticed that and slowly let go of her.
Hinila ni Artia palayo ang kamay na nakatakip sa bibig niya at kahit pa hindi na iyon nakatakip sa bibig niya hindi parin iyon binitawan. Lumingon siya sa likod upang makita ang mukha ng lalaking hawak-hawak siya.
It's really Kingsley. Gumaan ang pakiramdam niya ang nabawasa ang takot. Kumalma na ang kaninang naninigas na katawan.
"Kingsley," sambit nito sa mahinang boses. Hindi makapaniwala na ang binata nga ang nakikita ngayon.
Humigpit ang hawak ni Artia sa kamay ni Kingsley. Ilang sandaling nagtitigan lang sila. They don't know if its just because of their situation but something feels strange with their hearts. It felt alive and safe.
Her eyes are teary and her lips pouting. L

"What?" He asked surprised."Your plan isn't gonna work! You'll only get yourself at risk. You're just surrendering yourself!"His jaw tightened. Bumuntong hininga bago nagsalita."I'm doing this for you. Hindi ba't importante sayo ang phone mo?""Yes. But I will not let you risk your life for me!" Sagot nito kaagad.Napapitlag silang pareho nang makarinig ng kabog. Mga nahuhulog na bagay sa pagkalkal ng mga magnanakaw.Artia eyes looked at the door. Afraid it might be opened anytime and they'll ger caught. Weirdly, Kingsleys eyes are glued on her face. Intently staring at her beauty. Natulala ito sa ganda ng dalaga.Magulo ang mahabang itim niyang buhok pero kahit ganoon ay hindi ito nakabawas sa ganda ng dalaga.Nang ibalik na ng dalaga ang tingin sa kaniya ay mabilis siyang umiwas ng tingin. Kunwari ay tumingin siya sa ilaw malapit sa ulo ni Artia."I can't just stand he

Third P POVTinawag ni Conrad ang anak upang kamustahin at kausapin tungkol sa nangyari. This is the first time robbers successfully break inside their house. There are guards on the front gate of this subdivision and there are also two guards ensuring the security of their house.Nakapagtakang napasok ng mga ito ang bahay nila.Kingsley glance at Artia who's now embracing her mother tightly. Bakas parin ang shock sa mukha nito. Lumayo sila upang makapagusap ng maayos, siniguradong walang makakarinig sa pag-uusapan.Nakatalikod si Conrad sa mag-ina, si Kingsley naman ay nakikita parin ang dalaga."Alam mo ang itatanong ko." He said tough.Bukod kay Kingsley, alam din ni Conrad na ang may pakana sa pang ambush sa kanya at ang pagkawala ng isang milyon ay pakana ng dalaga. But he's angry with that, in fact he's amazed. Nagmana daw ito sa kaniyang ama."It's not her." Mabilis na sagot ni Kingsley sa am

Third P POV"Saan ka matutulog apo?" Tanong ni Manang Belinda sa alaga.Umahon sa pagkakasandal sa pader na salamin si Kingsley upang magbigay galang sa kausap."Sa baba na po. Ako na po ang mag-aayos sa kwarto ko. Tamad pa ako ngayon kaya bukas nalang." Sambit niya.Tumango ang matanda."Sa gitnang guest room natutulog si Artia. Ikaw na ang bahal kung saan ka matutulog. Baba na din ako at akoy matutulog na.""Is she sleeping?" Tanong niya bago makaalis ang matanda."Pinainom ko siya ng gatas, sana ay makatulong iyon para antukin siya." Sagot ng matanda saka muling nagpaalam at tuluyan ng umalis.Sumandal uli si Kingsley sa pader na salamin at ipinasok ang mga kamay sa bulsa. Hindi siya mapakali at hindi din dinadalaw ng antok. He can sleep in his room, but Artia's visiting his mind.Naiisip niya parin kung gaano takot ang dalaga kanina. At naiinis sa ina nito dahil hindi man lang sina

Artia's POV"No! Ba't naman ako iiyak? Mukha ba akong umiyak?"Nilagok ko ng isahan ang beer na inuunti-unti ko kanina. Lumunok ako ng laway pagkatapos. Bakit niya natanong kung umiyak ako? Namaga ba ang mata ko? Halata ba sa mukha ko na kakagaling ko lang umiyak?Hindi ako makatingin sa kaniya. Nangangambang mabasa niya sa mata ko na nagsisinungaling ako.Tumayo ako ng mabilis."Hindi kapa ba aakyat? Matutulog na ako." Mabilis kong sabi at ipinatong sa lababo ang baso bago naglakad paalis. Nakita ko siyang tumayo na din at iniligpit ang pagkain.Binagalan ko ang paglakad ko para maabutan niya ako. Medyo madilim na sa buong bahay. Nakapatay na ang ilang ilaw at napakatahimik na, baka mamaya multo naman ang makasalubong ko hindi na magnanakaw.Walang umimik sa amin hanggang sa makarating na ako sa tapat ng kwarto. Hinawakan ko ang door handle pero hindi iyon pinihit. Tinignan ko siya sa g

Artia's POV "Why? I mean what? May ibibigay ka?" Dumaan ako sa hagdan dahil hindi ko kayang iangat ang sarili ko papanik. Nakatingin siya sa mga upuan hindi makatingin sa akin. Just like the last time he saw me swimming here wearing only my underwear. Tawang tawa ako sa kaniya noon dahil nakatingala siya. Nasa harapan na niya ako, tumutulo pa ang tubig mula sa katawan ko. He looked at me in the eyes then took out something from his pocket. I frozed when I what that thing is. I immediately recognized that it is a phone and that freakin' phone case is so familiar to me. My eyes turned wide as the headlights. My mouth dropped open and I felt freakin' cold and my heart is pounding so damn hard. "Paanong..." hindi ko matuloy-tuloy ang sasabihin. Hindi ako makapaniwala sa nakikita. Paanong hawak niya ngayon ang phone ko? How the hell did he get it? Kasama ito sa mga ninakaw! Bakit nasa kaniya? "Naibalik kagabi ang lahat ng kinuha nila sa bahay.

Artia's POVIsang maleta ang damit na dinala ko, may ilang paper bags din na napuno at itong box ng wine na yakap yakap ko ngayon. Mas inuna ko itong dinala kaysa sa mga damit ko. Nakasalubong agad sa akin si Manang. Kunot ang noong nakatingin sa kahon na dala ko. Base sa reaksyon niya mukhang alam niyang brand ng alak ang nakasulat.Sabi niya sa siguro sa isip niya, maglalasing nanaman ang babaitang ito. Natawa ako doon. Hinintay ko siyang magkomento pero wala akong narinig mula sa kaniya. Tinulungan nila ako sa pagbubuhat ng iba pang gamit.May napansin akong iba, mula noong napasukan ng magnanakaw ang bahay, mula kahapon ay wala akong nakikitang ibang maids kundi si manang at ang dalawa pang mukhang mas bata. Hindi ko alam kung anong edad nila, pero parang kaedaran ko? O mas bata pa sa akin? Ang ilang maids na dati ay nakikita ko hindi ko pa nakita mula kahapon.Baka naman nakaday off lang? O sa laki ng bahay ay hindi ko lang sila nak

"Did you check your things Artia? Naibalik ba lahat ng gamit mo?" Tumango ako bago sumubo ng steak. We are now having dinner. May paguusapan daw. Dumating na kanina ang mga gamit na kinuha ng mga magnanakaw. Dapat ay naibalik na pala sa mismong gabing iyon pero sinigurado muna nina Conrad na kumpleto ang lahat kaya dinala pa iyon sa pulis."Where were you when the robbers get in?" Napatigil ako sa pagnguya sa tanong ni mama. Nanlaki ng kaunti ang mata ko. Napansin ko rin ang pagtigil sa pagkain ni Kingsley. Nagtama ang mga mata namin."Uhm..." hindi kaagad ako nakaisip ng palusot. Hindi pa nga ako nakakasagot may next question na agad."And you were only in your bathrobe. Naliligo ka noong dumating ang mga magnanakaw?"Umiling ako. Mas inunang sagutin iyon."Kakatapos ko lang maligo. Nagpapatuyo ako ng buhok nang marinig kong may nabasag. Nakita ko po sila sa second floor kaya..." what I did next is went inside

Artia's POV"When will be the wedding?" I asked, trying not to sound unhappy.She licked her lips. Is she tensed with my question? Bakit parang kinabahan siya na hindi komportable at may kung ano pang hindi ko mahinuha sa reaksyon ni mama."Well," she said hanging, licked her lips again."We haven't set a specific date yet.""Pero kailan niyo po gusto?" tanong ko kaagad wala pang dalawang segundo matapos siyang magsalita."Sa lalong madaling panahon sana, iha." napataas ako ng kilay nang si Conrad ang sumagot sa tanong ko. Binaling ko sa kaniya ang tingin ko."Pero pareho kaming busy ng mama mo sa ating mga negosyo, kaya... medyo matatagalan pa. And we want it to be perfect, kaya paghahandaan namin ng husto ang kasal."I just flashed my half smile. They want it to be perfect? Let's see if matutuloy nga ba ang kasal niyo."I'm done eating. Aakyat na po ako sa kwarto ko. I need to fix lot of things in my

-----fast forward----- ***Artia's POV*** "How about you two? Hindi niyo pa ba naiisipang magpakasal? You're on your right age naman. Maaari na kayong magpakasal." "Honestly, I've thought about that. Matagal na kayong magkasintahan, alam kong mauuwi kayong dalawa sa kasalan. Why don't you start planning about it?" Keep remembering it Artia. Keep thinking about it. About their conversation earlier on your dinner. Hindi kapa ba natatauhan? Even your mother and his father are pushing the two to get married. Hindi pa ba sampal sa iyo iyon? You should stop now, before you drown yourself you might not be able to save yourself. Nalulunod kana sa sarili mong patibong. Your great f*cking plan won't work. Ang tagal tagal na pero wala pang improvement ang plan mo. Ang sarili molang ang sinasaktan mo at isinusugal dito. Don't you think its time to back out? Now is the time to change your mind. Wake up, Artia! None of your plan will
Sultry Scheme Chapter 89
Artia's POV Kinabahan ako, akala ko may nagwawala na. Akala ko sinadya ni KIngsley na basagin ang mga bote dahil sa ginagawa namin ni Iulian. But why would he do that? Mukhang wala naman silang pake kahit pa magsex kami dito ni Iulian. Sila nga naghahalikan din kanina. The wine from the broken bottle is spilled on the floor and flow down to the water pool. Some broken glasses fell down in the pool also. What happened became clear to me when I saw a cat near the bottles. Mukhang tumalon ito at iyon ang mga natamaan. Kingsley doesn't own a cat. Kanino kaya ang orange na pusang ito at bakit nandito? THe cat looked like the famous cat in the movie. I forgot the cats name. Mahihirapan akong alalahanin iyon lalo na't lasing. My eyes glance at the two. Courtney slightly in panic moving away from the pool. And then Kingsley, eyes blanked looking at us. When our eyes met he immediately looked away, turned around and left the pool too. I blinked

***Artia's POV*** I couldn't fall asleep why I decided to take a bath. After taking a bath I just wore a thin silk of dress and sat on the floor facing the mirror and resting my back against the table placed in the middle of my walk in closet. I stared at my own reflection in the mirror. From my face, to my body and back to my face. My lips trembled, and my eyes started to sting. I have the face. I have the body. But I have no one. Unlike Courtney, she have friends, she have Iulian and Kingsley beside her for years. She have Kingsley who's loving her. I bit my lips hoping I could stop it from trembling. Now I know the answer to my questions earlier. The kiss I shared with Iulian felt empty. I've kissed many guys, and the truth, it all felt empty. Ako lang itong naglalagay ng meaning at emosyon doon. Sa paraang iyon, nababawasan ang kalungkutang nararamdaman ko. Something really changed, because now I know and have realized that all those

***Artia's POV***Our lips touched and dance together. Just like the music being played, it was slow at first but then coped up with a steady pace. His lips are tender and warm just like Kingsley's lips but it didn't made the butterflies in my stomach fly. I was the one who cut the kiss.I stared at his lips, didn't want to stare at his eyes so he wouldn't see I was distracted while we are kissing. I'm confuse. Why do I feel like something is missing? Why didn't it felt good? Its not because he's not a good kisser, but I didn't enjoyed like how I enjoyed the kisses of Kingsley.Isinantabi ko muna ang mga katanungan na iyon. I should say something. Iulian might get offended with my reaction."Walang magagalit?" I tried to joke. I felt relieved when he chuckled."Sayo? Walang magagalit?" tanong niya pabalik may ngisi sa labi. Umiling ako at itinago ang pasimpling paglunok ng laway.I hope meron. Sana may magalit at sana ay si Kingsley iy

***THIRD P POV***"I feel better with you, next to me."It's strange, how he can remember the words she said. Kingsley looked away and turned his attention to his girlfriend. He didn't want to start a conversation with Artia now that Courtney, Iulian and their other friends are next to them.He just had an argument with his girlfriend, he doesn't want her to have another reason to argue with. Courtney might get jealous. Artia didn't talkedtoo since she really doesn't have anything to say. She stretch a small smile to Courtney, she smiled back but she know she's not really okay that she's here.She chitchat with Iulian and sometimes with the other guys whose name she can't remember. Well, she's not really interested, her mind is clouded with the couple next to her and the trauma Rom left to her.She's thirsty but she don't have the spirit to drink the glasses of alcohol served in front of her. She didn't voice it out. At kahit pa gustuhin man
Sultry Scheme Chapter 85
Kingsleys POV"Bukod sa gusto kitang kasama, wala na akong ibang kaibigan.""Look out for, Artia.""I lost everyone. My Dad's dead. I have no more friends."I closed my eyes tightly hoping I get to focus and stop remembering her voices and those words she said and what her mother said to me too. It keeps visting my mind. I can't stop thinking about it.[Why do you have to take her with you?] I looked out of the window for a second. I can feel her staring at me, listening to my conversation with Courtney on the phone."We already talked about this." No matter how much I lower my voice she can still hear me. I glance at her and her face says it. She's asking if we are arguing.[Yes, we talked about it but I want us to talk about it again. I thought it will just be for a while. Don't tell me she'll come with us sa lahat ng lakad natin.]"Mamaya natin ito pag-usapan."[Fine! Let's just meet there. Hin

Artia's POV "What?" He asked stern now back to being suplado. It was only for a short moment but it was gold for me. Him laughing together with me. Staring at my eyes not to others. Finally he laughed with me. I can't hide the smile formed in my lips. I shook my head and looked away, not wanting him to see that I was too happy just seeing him laughing with me. My heart still feels like its floating in the air above the clouds. Butterflies inside my stomach flying around. Giving the feeling that I haven't felt for years now. "Nothing." I answered. He noticed I was staring at him for a long time why he asked me what. I admit I stared at him so intently. It was too obvious. I should've been careful so he wouldn't get back to being stern so quickly. "I feel sorry to Iulian. I didn't know it tasted so salty. Ang dami niyang kinain," mahinang sambit ko habang nilalaro gamit ang kutsara ang sinangag na niluto ko. Buti nalang pala at hindi si Kingsl

Artia's POV "I just want to say sorry too, about what I said yesterday. No woman wants to be disrespected and molested. Sorry." Parang naisama ko sa paglunok ko ang dila ko dahil hindi ako nakapagsalita. Parang lalabas na din yata sa d****b ko ang puso ko sa lakas ng tibok nito. Dang! What is wrong with me? Bakit ganito makapagreact ang puso ko sa ginawa niya? When I recovered I smiled sweetly at him and said, "Babe, its okay." I bit my lips after talking. Dang! Baka magalit ulit sa akin dahil sa pagtawag ko sa kaniya ng babe. Hindi ko naman sinasadya! It just slip out of my tongue. "You're forgiven." I said my voice automatically turned husky. Our eyes wandered at each other for a while before he looked away and walked. Akala ko ay aalis na siya pero napangiti ulit nang makita siyang sumandal sa may bar counter. I giggled and open the fridge to look at the sandwhich he made for me. Ngiting-ngiti ako habang tinitignan iyon at
Sultry Scheme Chapter 82
Artia's POV "You two already kissed." Mula kanina ay hindi na ako tinantanan ng batang ito. She keeps on asking the same question over and over again everytime she sees me-- no she's following me. "Why are you so eager to know if we did kissed or not?" Gaya ngayon, sinusundan niya ako kahit saan ako magpunta. Kanina ay may kinausap kami ni Kingsley why we left her for a while. Pagkatapos doon ay naghiwalay kami ni Kingsley. I don't know where he went to and if he talked to someone but now I can see him and I'm walking towards his direction. "I heard the other girl is Kuya Kingsleys girlfriend. So if you two already kissed, maybe you seduced him to kiss you. Or you stole a kiss from him since you like him." Tumigil ako sa paglalakad at binalingan ang batang nakasunod sa likod ko. "I like him?" I asked. Parang sure na sure sa sinasabi niya. "Yeah. I can see it in the way you look at him
