Tahimik lamang si Rafael habang nag mamaneho.
What's wrong with this guy?i thought he want to talk to me about something that's why he asked me to get inside his car. "I thought you won't fetch me?," I asked. "Your dad called me earlier," He said instead of answering my question before he cleared his throat and losen up his neck tie. I rolled my eyes. That old man.Why call this guy instead of me?he really don't want me to kick this annoying guy's ass out of my house huh?So what.Whatever.So what if he won't call me?then i won't argue with him anymore about Rafael staying in our house.Just make sure they both won't regret in the end if Rafael will end up. "Hindi mo daw naipasa ang first sem mo, tinawagan sya ng teacher mo para i update-" "What!?" Hinarap ko siya habang naka kunot ang aking noo. He gave me a death glare because of my agressiveness. "I did not failed my sem!my teacher just said i have possibility to, she never said i failed my sem okay?i am not stupid to fail my sem!" This asshole might think i am idiot.He might look down at me. "Lower down your voice," He said calmly while driving. We are already entering the gate of our villa.Good thing we are already near our house because i badly wanna get out of this car.This man beside me is really suffocating me. "I did not failed the sem," I said clearly before i rolled my eyes and look outside the window. "Okay, pero pinakisuyuan ako ng Dad mo na mag hire ng tutor para sa' yo-" "No way!," Sigaw ko. "Jesus, your voice." He gave me an annoyed look before he glance at the road again. "I said i don't want a tutor, i am not stupid.My teacher just really hates me that's why she said i have high possibility to failed our first semester," I reasoned. He quietly listened to me. "Still,your dad asked me to find you a tutor." I rolled my eyes. "I don't need a tutor.Tutor is only for kids and stupid people," I said confidently. And that old man thinks i am stupid. "Nakapag hire na ako ng tutor mo, Stella.Your dad said if you will continue being stubborn then they will go home and he will be the one to teach you." My eyes widened and my jaw almost drop.Is he serious?are you kidding me?that old man is really feeling high! I did'nt talk and just get my phone to dial his number. The ring did'nt even last a second because he ended the incoming call that quick. "Bitch," I cursed and tried to call him again but this time, his phone did'nt ring.He shut down his phone!ugh!, that old man is really getting into my nerves! Do i really need to have a tutor?for what?He really thought i can't pass this sem?is he that scared? I leaned on my seat before i turned my face to Rafael who just licked his lower lips quietly. "Whatever," I murmured. He did'nt say anything.I don't know but i can feel his hard breathing.He seems tired. When we arrived home, i got out of his car quickly before i changed my clothes in my room and call Ava. "Ano na naman ang problema mo ngayon, mahal na reyna?," She chuckled. I laid myself on my bed before i told her everything that Rafael has said to me and she just literally laughed at me!what the freak? "Girl, may tanong ako sayo." She cleared her throat. "Don't you find him attractive?i mean,i am already blinded by his beauty and atittude.He's so cool," She said before she giggles. Hell no!he's definitely annoying.Yes he's handsome, especially when he's wearing corporate attire.At first look, he seems to be gentle and nice but his atittude?his behaviour is like an untamed wild animal.He don't even feel scared at me.I mean almost everyone around me felt scared whenever i show them my atittude, they could'nt even talk properly when i gave them my death glare.But this man?no, he's different.He's confident, and i hate that. "Pakiramdam ko kasi palagi na nyang nakukuha ang atensyon mo, bukambibig mo sya halos mag hapon kanina ah?," She chuckled again. Ofcourse i will talk about him all day to release my hatred!she gave meaning to those?i can't believe her.If only she could feel how much i am annoyed whenever Rafael started to talk.I would be happy if he could be just silent. "You are crazy," I said before i rolled my eyes. She chuckled and continue talking about Rafael.She continously tease me and ofcourse i need to be defensive with this crazy girl i am talking to. I was thinking to call Clara but i doubt she can have chit chats to me since she's doing school works with her group mates right now. When the call ended, i went out of my room while holding my cellphone. While walking down the stairs, my eyes landed on Rafael who's sitting on our sofa while his macbook is on his lap.He already changed his clothes.He's now wearing a black and white puma short and a black printed oversized shirt.He also have eyeglass on him. "I was about to call you," He said without even glancing at me that made me swallow. "May binili akong lasagna kanina, nasa kusina.Kainin mo," He said when i am already downstairs. I raised one of my eyebrows before i crossed my arms and confidently walk infront of him. "What are you doing?," I asked because he's too focused on his macbook. "Work, why?," He asked. I rolled my eyes and ignore him since he does'nt even glance at me.I just walked to the kitchen and ate the lasagna alone. "Stella," Nanny Rosa called my name when i'm already done eating. "Yes?" "Tumawag kanina si sir Armando, sinabi niya na maaari kaming umuwi sa bahay namin at mag pahinga muna sa trabaho.Lahat ng katulong dito ay nag si uwian na at ako nalang ang natira kaya kung may kailangan ka tawagin mo lang ako, okay?" My forehead creased, confused. I tilted my head while thinking. I just noticed how Dad is giving a lot of orders to everyone while he's not here.This is not the first time that they left out of the country but this is the first time he sent home our maids.Even our one and only trusted driver.What's wrong with him?is he sick?or is he just really stupid? "Okay." I shrugged my shoulders and did not ask. I walked out of the kitchen and was about to go back to my room when i saw Rafael too focused on what he's doing. I secretly smirked before i walked to him and open the television infront of us. Look who's peacefully living alone in his own world. I could sense in my peripheral vision his stares at me while i am sitting beside him and looking infront of the television. "Seriously?," He asked. I paused and look at him innocently. He's looking at me intently. "Why?is it bad to watch tv nowadays?if you don't want to work while someone is disturbing you then you can go home.I just wanna watch tv, this is our house so i can do whatever i want and you have no say with everything i'll do." I breathe after i said those words. He stared at my both eyes.Like he's amused and can't believe of what i said. After a seconds, he shrugged both of his shoulders before he closed his mac book and put it on our mini glass table. He leaned on the sofa and crossed his legs. "Let's watch then," He said that made my jaw dropped. I thought he was kidding but he started to watch the television as if something interesting is happening. I bit my lowerlip out of annoyance. Ugh!see?he's really worst than me! I looked at him angrily before i stood up and left him without a word. That guy!i will kill him! I went back to my room and throw all of my pillows to realese my anger. What the freak is wrong with him!Yes he is handsome and hot but he is also worst!his atittude is the worst atittude i've saw and witnessed!i hope their business will rot in hell! When morning came, we ate again together.This time, he's not talking, he's just staring at his phone and typing while eating.I don't know but i could feel my hatred again whenever he's doing something while i am with him. I dropped my spoon on the floor that made him look at it. I thought he will get it for me but he just look at me and creased his forehead. "You done?," He asked. My eyebrows met each other for some reason that i, myself, don't know either. I stood up angrily before i marched to the lounge and get my bag on the sofa. "Stella!," He called my name. Stella my ass! I went out of our house and directly went inside of his car. He followed me and carefully open the door of his car before he put on his seat belt and start the engine. "Anong problema mo?," He asked when he started to drive before he look at me. "Just drive," I said. I rolled my eyes and he did'nt talk. I look at the stereo of his car and play a music. He did'nt say a word and just let me do what i want to do. "Mag kakaron ng party next two weeks sa bahay.Anniversary ng company namin at duon mag cecelebrate, darating din ang mga company members." "And?," I asked. "I already asked permission to your dad." "So what?" "I just want you to be aware.You might be possessed by demons that day so i am asking you not to have tantrums when my friends are there." I gave him my death glare. "Possess yourself, stupid." I murmured. I heard him chuckled that made me stunned for a moment because that's the first time i heard him laughing in a little. "Susunduin ulit kita mamaya.Susubukan kong hindi ma late," He said. I look at him. "Why will you be late?," I asked. His adams apple moved when he swallowed. "I have to meet someone after my work." Whatever.Then meet everyone. "I'll ride taxi if you're late," I declared. "Gaya ng sinabi ko, gagawin ko ang best ko para hindi ma late," He sighed. I did not talk until we arrived outside the university. I unlocked the seatbelt but it did'nt work so i tried harder. "Hey,carefull," He remind me. "Carefull." I copied his tone before i rolled out my eyes and hardly unlock the belt but it seems to have a problem that's why it did'nt work. "Jesus," He whispered before he removed his belt and came closer to me. "Let me, sisirain mo ang sasakyan ko." He said before he removed my hands on the belt gently. I could smell his manly perfume that seems to be addicting for everyone, even to me. He removed the seat belt and sat properly. "Take care," He said before i got out of his car but i ignore him and just closed the door of his car. I noticed that his car did'nt move until i enter the inside of our university. "Stellaaaaa" Ava hugged me tight when i entered our room. I frowned. "What's wrong?," I asked. She giggled. "Sabi sakin ni Clara sa call kanina hindi daw sya makakapasok, may sakit daw sya e." "And,what is it?," I asked her once again. Maybe she went home late yesterday? "May gwapong transferee sa section natin today-" "Wait,hang on!," I cutted her sentence because she's talking way too fast. "I said there will be transferee here today." "A boy?," I asked and he nodded happily. "And i heard,he's handsome." Ofcourse,her happy pill is every handsome guys.When our wicked prof came, she asked for silence to introduce the new student who's just outside our room and has'nt show his face to us yet."No, hijo.Halika, huwag kang mahiya," Our prof said.I heard a chuckle from the guy outside."Alright," He said before he walked in that made everyone turn their head on him because of his stromg charisma that is overflowing.He is tall,wearing an eye glass,and handsome as hell,especially he's wearing our university's uniform that literally fits him.He has a long ash gray hair that made him unique."God, unang kita ko palang sa kaniya alam ko nang siya talaga ang naka takda para sa akin," Ava murmured while staring at the guy infront of us, like craving little girl of something she badly wants.I could see her shining eyes twinkled and almost dropping while roaming all around the body of the handsome man."Seriously,Ava?," I asked in a low tone before i chuckled."Good morning,everyone.I am Dos Nathaniel Siveros.It's nice meeting you all."I star
Hindi ako iniimikan at kinakausap ni Rafael, hindi manlang nya ako tinitingnan.Anong problema sa lalaking ito?.We went inside and we both changed our wet clothes first before we went to the lounge where Dos is sitting and silently waiting for us.I sat beside Rafael.Dos started to talk to him and told him everything happened today.He's talkative when he's talking to his older brother."Hindi ko inakala na sya nga ang anak ni tito Armando, hindi naman sila mag kamuka kahit konti," Dos said while glancing at me."But i knew she'll be this pretty," He shrugged his shoulders and smiled at me.I smiled back at him.Nany Rosa came and gave us foods on the mini glass table."Huhugasan ko lang ang mga pinggan, tawagin nyo nalang ako kapag may kailangan kayo," She said before she leave us.I nodded and look back to Dos."Hindi mo naulit sa' kin na ngayong araw ka mag tatransfer sa university nila," Rafael said."Eat," I told Dos.Nakita ko kung paano mangunot ang noo ni Rafael at saka niya ako
"Alright, someone kissed me.But we did not make out," He sighed and glanced at me.See?he kissed someone!and it looks like he enjoyed it!just look at his image right now.He literally enjoyed kissing with other girls.And to whoever that woman is, she's so flirt!how can she suck Rafael's lips and turn it into cherry's color."Why are you so mad?i thought you don't like me?hmm?," He asked and off the engine of his car in the middle of the road wherein no other cars are passing by right now.What the fuck?He leaned his back on his seat before he faced me and stare at my face as if he's observing what will be my next move be.My breathing became heavy."I never said i don't like you!-""Kung ganoon ay gusto mo ako?"My eyes widened and i saw his lips rose."O-ofcourse not!," My voice raised.What the fuck is he thinking?that i like him?hell no!never.I will never like a man who kiss other girls.He chuckled."You're giving me a mixed signals," He conclude.I am trying hard to avoid his star
TagalogI don't understand why but i noticed that Rafael is slowly being nice to me.Not that nice but still, he's trying to adjust with my decisions or wants.After what happened between i and Janine, he tried to assure me that everything will be fine, that he will talk to her and i won't be able to see her again.He assured me that he will be my tutor and about my hair, he will bring me to salon.And there, here we are today, inside the famous salon, treating my damaged hair because of Janine while Rafael is just sitting on the prepared sofa and scrolling through his phone.I don't know why he forced me to come with him.I told him yesterday that i will just go here alone since i knew he's busy with his works, but he did'nt agreed.He still came here with me.I am sure he still have a lot of works to do.Why is he still here?After the hairstylist did my hair, Rafael asked me if i want to eat something."Don't you have work?," I asked instead while staring at his eyes.I have my sunglass o
Ginawa ko ang sinabi ni Rafael, kapag mag kasama kaming dalawa ay nag tatagalog ako kahit na hindi ako gaanong ka confident sa accent ko."You're cute," He seriously said while driving and straightly looking at the road.It was'nt hard ofcourse.As i've said, marunong naman talaga akong mag tagalog at tanging accent lang ang pinoproblema ko.So far, okay naman ang nagiging outcome dahil hindi ako pinag tatawanan o inaasar ni Rafael.Kakagaling ko lang sa university at sinundo na ako ni Rafael.Hapon na at nasabi nya sa akin na mamayang gabi daw magaganap ang event sa bahay namin, nakapag set up na din daw at mag papa pool party din sila."Rafael, i need a new set of liptint," I sighed when i remembered that thing.It's traffic though, what can i do?, my mind is bored."I'll buy you a lot tomorrow, i just don't have enough time to change clothes for the event tonight," He said.Tumango lamang ako.Nakauwi na kami at kaagad ko siyang iniwan para mag bihis.Simpleng white spaghetti strap lang
I went to the garage, only to see Rafael and the girl who glared at me earlier getting out of it.Kaagad nag sink in sa akin ang nakita ko kaya naman natawa nalang ako at saka nag lakad pabalik sa loob ng bahay.Sigurado akong hindi nila ako nakita dahil busy sila sa pakikipag usap sa isa't isa, lalo na ang babaeng naka two piece at abot tenga ang ngiti habang sabay silang nag lalakad ni Rafael.Pag balik ko sa dinaanan ko kanina ay wala na duon ang dalawang kaibigan ng kasama ni Rafael kaya naman dire diretso akong lumakad pabalik sa kwarto ko at duon nag kulong.Damn it!Anong ginawa nila duon?bakit sila mag kasama?imposibleng wala silang ginawa kahit na mag kasama sila lalo pa at naka suot ang babaeng 'yon ng two piece!Naramdaman kong nangilid ang luha ko dahil sa inis.Ipinag babato ko ang unan ko at saka ako naupo sa sahig at sumubsob sa edges ng kama ko para duon umiyak.I don't know what's happening to me, i don't know why i'm crying.Ang alam ko lang ay sobrang naiinis ako sa tat
I could'nt believe what happened, it was way too fast for me that my brain could'nt even process everything.Lahat ng nangyari, hindi ko inasahan.Ni isa ay wala akong inasahan na magaganap, nagising nalang ako na katabi ko na si Rafael habang sya ay naka yakap sa akin at naka siksik ang muka sa leeg ko.Kumurap kurap ako at nakitang wala syang saplot pang itaas.The fuck??I raised my hand and touch the skin of his back.It's real!hubad?!"Oh my god, Rafael," I groaned before i tried to hold his shoulders and push him away from me but he did'nt move and just remained his face on my neck."Hmm..," He moaned.Naramdaman ko ang pag dampi ng labi nya sa aking leeg.Naramdaman ko ang pag bilis ng tibok ng puso ko."Rafael, wake up," I said as i tap his gently shoulder.Hindi sya kumibo kaya naman pinakiramdaman ko sya at hindi ako umimik.I want to hug him, gusto ko syang pang gigilan.Hindi ko alam kung bakit pero may kilig akong nararamdaman habang naka yakap sya sa akin.Ilang segundo ang
Sinabi ko lahat kay Rafael ang sinabi at ginawa ng dalawang kaibigan ni Arcella kagabi sa akin.Walang labis at walang sobra ang kwento ko dahil buong pangyayari ang sinabi ko sa kaniya kaya naman natahimik ako bigla nang makita ang pag dilim ng muka nya."I'm gonna talk to them," Nakakatindig balahibo na sambit nito saka ako binitawan sa pisngi at akmang aalis na.Nanlaki ang mga mata ko saka ko kinuha ang kaniyang kamay."Rafael, wag na.Hayaan mo na sila, nag papaliwanag lang naman ako sayo kung bakit ako umiyak kagabi," Kunot noong sabi ko.Ayokong kausapin ni Rafael ang tatlo dahil iisipin lalo ni Arcella na napaka isip bata ko at nag sumbong pa ako kay Rafael.As if i wanted to tell him those things."Let them?, Stella you don't know how i almost kill myself when i saw you sitting on the floor and crying on your bed!," His voice raised.I shook my head."Rafael, just listen to me.I don't want you to talk to them about it.Now let's end this topic or i'll go home," I said.Tinapunan
"Wife, what are you cooking?" Tanong ni Rafael at saka ko naramdaman ang mainit na pag yakap niya mula sa aking likuran.Naramdaman ko pa ang mainit niyang balat kaya naman nasigurado kong wala siyang damit pang itaas."Rafael, put on your clothes.You might get cold," Sambit ko habang nag luluto ng chicken curry.It's been five years and months.Ikinasal kami ni Rafael bago pa man ako manganak sa kambal.That was unexpected but the result turns out fine."Mom, Dad," Nang marinig ko iyon ay kaagad kaming napa lingon ni Rafael sa may pintuan kung saan kakapasok lamang ng mga anak namin ni Rafael.Kumalas sa akin si Rafael at saka nilapitan ang dalawa.Francis Jerome Aragon Siveros , and Sakura Danaya Aragon Siveros.That's their name.Ang pangalan ng lalaki naming anak ay si Dad ang nag bigay at ang pangalan naman ng babae naming anak ay si Lincoln ang nag bigay.They are already four years old now at mag bibirthday na next month."Jiro," I smiled at my son before i came near him to give him
"Our company will release our newest car design," Rafael said in a tone with full of authority while talking to his one investor.Humikab ako habang naka upo sa kaniyang swivel chair at nag suswipe lamang sa aking cellphone.I can't, it's so boring here.Kaya lang naman ako pumunta dito ay dahil gusto kong makasama si Rafael.Natapos ang meeting nila sa loob ng halos isa at kalahating oras kaya naman muntik na akong makatulog sa aking kinauupuan.It's just so boring here.I really can't."Do you want to go home?" Rafael asked while standing beside me and holding a cup of black coffee.Naka pamulsa siya habang humihigop dito at naka titig sa akin.I shook my head."Do you want to eat something?" He asked and i nodded."Name it," He loosen up his neck tie."I don't know it's name," Sambit ko saka ako bumuntong hininga at muling nag scroll sa aking cellphone.Kanina kasi habang nag i scroll ako sa instagram ay may nakita akong pagkain na post ng aking mutual pero hindi ko naman alam kung ano
kami ng kwarto at nadatnan namin ang lahat na nasa lounge at tahimik na nag uusap habang si Mommy ay tahan na pero namumula pa rin ang mga mata.Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala na s'ya na itong nasa harapan ko ngayon.Nakakatawa lang na kahit ilang taon na ang lumipas ay hindi ko pa rin nakalimutan ang hitsura n'ya."Stella," Kaagad na sambit ni Tita Jasmine at lahat sila ay natigilan nang makita ako.Napa tingin ako kay Mommy na naka upo sa sofa at naka titig sa akin habang nangungusap ang mga mata."I want to talk to you alone," Malamig na sambit ko at nakita ko naman ang kaagad n'yang pag tango at pag lunok bago s'ya tumayo.Bumaling ako kay Rafael na nasa likuran ko lamang at naka titig din pala sa akin."Rafael, stay here," Sambit ko saka ko s'ya pinakitaan ng ngiti para hindi na s'ya mag alala sa akin."I'll wait here, baby," He nodded before he caressed my elbow.Nauna na akong lumabas kung saan alam kong walang magiging tao maliban sa aming dalawa ni Mommy.Pin
Rafael and his family became more caring to me as if i am way too fragile to touch.Habang buntis din ako ay sa condo kami ni Rafael naka tira pero palagi rin namang nanduon ang pamilya namin dahil tuwang tuwa sila sa tiyan ko na unti unti nang lumalaki."Rafael, stop working," I said while staring at Rafael who's cleaning our bed.Kahit na buntis ako ay nag tatrabaho pa rin sya.Talagang hindi nya pinababayaan ang ipinamanang kumpanya ng angkan niya sa kaniya.Kahit naman na ganuon ay hindi pa rin siya nag kukulang sa pag bibigay ng oras sa akin dahil most of the time ay isinasama nya ako sa office."I need to work hard for our family, Stella," He said before he sat on the bed and raised his head to see me."Come here," Tapik nya sa kaniyang hita kaya naman bumuntong hininga ako at saka naupo roon.Umangat ang aking isang kamay patungo sa kaniyang dibdib at saka ko ito marahang hinaplos."But you're tired," Sambit ko.Hinawakan lamang niya ang tiyan ko na kahit tatlong buwan palang ay
Mainit ang ginawang pag tanggap sa akin ng pamilya ni Rafael.Masayang masaya si Tita Regine at gusto na kaagad iplano ang kasal naming dalawa ni Rafael."Mom, stop-""Dun din naman papunta iyon diba?mas mabuting mag pakasal na kayo!" Masayang sambit ni Tita Regine at hindi naman ako naka sagot."Mommy, hayaan mo na sila Kuya.Malay mo mag break pa sila diba?-""Dos naman," Natatawang sambit ni Tita Regine at nakita ko naman ang pag irap ni Rafael kay Dos.Ngumisi lang ako at saka ibinagsak ang isang kamay sa hita ni Rafael.Kaagad ko rin naman naramdaman ang pag haplos ng kamay nya na nasa aking likuran."Surely we'll end up being married to each other," Sambit ni Rafael kaya naman nag angat ako ng tingin sa kaniya at nakitang naka titig sya kay Dos."Huwag mo nang pakealaman si Rafael ngayon, Regine.Sigurado na ang anak natin," Tawa ng Dad ni Rafael.Pakiramdam ko ay may humaplos sa aking puso nang maramdaman kung gaano sya kasigurado sa akin.I'm also very sure about you, Rafael.Sa m
Marahan at masuyo kong sinimulan ang pag halik kay Rafael hanggang sa maramdaman ko na rin ang pag ganti nya sa bawat halik ko na mas naka dagdag pa ng init sa aking katawan.His lips taste so good.So sweet for a man like him."Hmm" I moaned.Sumandal sya sa sofa at saka huminto sa pag halik sa akin kaya naman naiwan ang bibig ko na basa at naka awang.Halos mapa pikit ako nang marahan nyang halikan ang aking leeg at may kasama pang pag dila iyon kaya naman kinagat ko ang aking labi habang hinahaplos ang balikat niya."Hmm, Rafael," I moaned and i felt him stiffened before he whispered on my neck."Moan my name, baby."Patuloy nyang hinalikan ang aking leeg hanggang sa bumaba ito patungo sa aking collar bone.Mas humigpit ang pag kaka kapit ko sa balikat niya."R-Rafael..." Mahinang sambit ko kaya naman natigilan siya at saka nag angat ng tingin sa akin."Yes, my baby?" He asked softly.Pakiramdam ko ay sobrang pula na ng muka ko ngayon kaya naman napa lunok ako at napa titig sa mga k
Tahimik akong uminom ng tubig at saka ko dinampot ang table napkin para punasan ang bibig ko."You're drunk then?" Baling ko sa kaniya at kaagad naman syang umiling."I had four shots," Sambit nya at tumango naman ako.Pinag masdan ko lang sya na titigan ako.Mukang hindi naman sya kakain..."Ipaliligpit ko nalang ang mga 'to kung 'di ka kakain-""I'll eat," He cutted me.I swallowed hard.Dinampot nya ang fork at spoon saka tahimik na nag simulang kumain.Bumuntong hininga ako at nag patuloy nalang din sa pag kain.Mabilis lang kaming natapos dahil kaunti lang ang kinain ko habang sya naman ay parang pinilit lang ang sarili na kumain.He's quiet.Alam kong ako ang dahilan nuon kaya naman nang matapos na kami ay tumayo na ako."Let's talk outside, can we?" I asked.Tumango sya saka tumayo.Sabay kaming nag tungo sa labas kung saan mas tahimik.Hindi gaanong maliwanag.Kaming dalawa lang ang tao...Humarap ako sa kan'ya at nakita syang naka tayo lamang habang naka titig sa akin.Namumula ang
"Matagal ko ng kilala si Rafael dahil anak sya ng tita Regine mo at sa tuwing nakikita ko sya sa trabaho nya, naiisip ko na sya ang babagay sa iyo," Dad said.Nanatili akong naka titig sa kaniya at hindi umiimik.Hinahayaan ko lamang siya na mag salita kahit na hindi ko gaanong maintindihan kung ano ang mga pinag sasasabi niya."He's a very responsible man.A polite, well-mannered, smart, and powerful man like him, is the best man for you."My lips parted.Now, i'm slowly getting it...Could it be..."Sinadya kong umalis ng bansa para lamang mapakiusapan si Rafael noon na bantayan ka habang wala pa ako sa bahay.Iyon lamang ang tanging dahilan kung bakit nag tagal ako sa ibang bansa, para mabigyan ko kayo ng tamang oras ni Rafael at para lumambot ang puso mo sa kanya," Dad looked at me with a hope.I got it.Hindi ko kaagad napansin na ang bilis nya akong ipinag katiwala kay Rafael kahit na kung tutuosin ay pwede namang sa mga katulong na lang nya ako ihabilin o di kaya ay kay Lincoln.Ku
Rafael and I ended up together on his bed.Nothing happened, natulog lang kaming dalawa.I missed it.I missed sleeping with him.Hindi ko alam na ganuon ang mangyayari ng gabing iyon.Kahit papaano, pakiramdam ko ay nawala ang bigat na nararamdaman ko.Naalimpungatan ako nang maramdaman kong may humahalik sa leeg ko kaya naman marahan kong idinilat ang aking mga mata at natigilan nang makitang naka yakap sa akin ang topless na si Rafael habang naka subsob sa aking leeg at mayat maya ang pag halik duon.Nangunot ang noo ko ngunit walang salita na lumabas sa aking bibig.Kinabig ng kamay ko na nasa batok nya ang kaniyang ulo para mas ilapit sa akin at ramdam ko namang natigilan sya pero nang makabawi ay hinaplos haplos lang ang aking bewang.Geez, i'm still wearing a black puff sleeve and skirt.I'm glad i was able to sleep even if it's uncomfy."Rafael, i'll go home now," I said in a sleepy voice but he did'nt say a word.Marahan kong hinaplos ang kaniyang buhok at bumaba ang kamay ko patu
