Chapter 1

Solaria's POV

Nasa kwarto ako ngayon, feeling bored as fuck! Last night, my dad was very angry about what I did. Nireport ba naman na tumakas ako? Buti nalang di niya sinumbong yung nawitness niyang ginawa ko kasama yung lalaki kagabi. My dad did not attempt to ground me, kasi kapag grounded ako useless pa rin yun, tatakas pa rin ako kaya hindi niya na ginawa yun.

Tinignan ko ang taong may salarin sa nangyari kagabi, nasa loob ko siya ng kwarto ko because daddy ordered him to. Hindi daw ako pwede mawala sa paningin niya kaya pinahintulotan siya ni daddy na bantayan ako mula sa loob ng kwarto ko. He was just standing behind the door like a freaking statue, wala siyang pinapapasok unless kung kinakailangan. I rolled my eyes and decided na mag tingin nalang ng vids sa ipad ko, dumapa ako sa kama while watching videos on my ipad. Umabot sa punto na I was watching a rated-18 video, isa siyang clip ng sikat na movie. Suddenly, a crazy idea came into my mind, I looked at Zachary and smirked. Humanda ka sa akin ngayon.

I got up and went up to him. "Hey, asshole! I need to take a shower. You need to get out," he was raising a brow while looking at me. "Ano? Gusto mong tignan akong maghubad dito? Or do I need to kiss you in order for you to obey me?" I asked him boldly, tumikhim siya saglit to compose himself.

"May walk-in closet po kayo na konektado sa bathroom niyo po, young lady. Pwede po kayo maghubad doon, inihabilin ng daddy niyo na hindi po pwede mawala po kayo sa panigin ko." I rolled my eyes at his remark.

"So ayaw mong lumabas?"

"Ayaw."

"Okay, then don't regret the decision you made." he was confused, but before he could reply I kissed. Hard. He was shocked especially when I was moving my lips into his. Nung nataohan siya sa ginagawa ko sa kanya, hinawakan niya ako sa braso at inilayo niya ako. Hindi naman masyadong mahigpit, in fact he was very gentle nung inilayo niya ako sa kanya.

"What the heck are you even doing?!" he asked out of disbelief.

"Sabi mo hindi ka lalabas diba? Kaya hinalikan kita para lumabasa ka, or pwede rin ikaw nalang maghubad sa saplot ko, kung gusto mo?" he let go as soon as I said that, he took a deep breath. And look at me intently.

"Okay, fine, lalabas na ako. Pero please huwag kang tumakas." he was begging. I smiled sweetly, umiling lang siya at lumabas na siya ng kwarto. Damn, he's lips are fucking soft. As soon as he got out, I took a shower and put on some clothes and went out of the room. Hindi nakatingin sa akin si Zach, sumunod lang siya sa akin papuntang kusina.

I prepared some juice and foods. Some of my friends are coming, I called them over kasi na bored na talaga ako. I asked one of my maids na dalhin sa garden, nagtungo na din ako dun pagkatapos kong ihanda ang pagkain. As usual nandoon si Zach, sunod pa rin siya ng sunod. Para siyang aso, I just didn't mind him. A few minutes later, my friends, Chandria and Cleona arrived.

"Hey, Solar! We miss you girl!" Cleona greeted me with so much excitement. I smiled and even hugged and kissed them on the cheeks, I asked them to sit. "I assume that you got yourself into trouble, kaya pinatawag mo na naman kami ni Chandria." I softly laughed.

"Parang di ka pa sanay, Cleo. Kulang na nga lang gawin niya to on a daily basis eh." she took a bite of the macaroons I prepared. "I also think we don't have to guess what happened, kasi may nangyari sa pag iinoman niya kagabi, tama ba ako, Solaria?" I just nodded to Chandria, damn they know me so fucking well!

"But it was fun you know, not until someone ruined it." I looked at Zach who was standing in front of us. "Naputol, hindi kami napunta sa exciting part because of him." the girls laughed. What's so funny?

"Don't tell me you almost had sex, with someone you didn't know? Girl you're upgrading!" Cleona said while laughing, natawa na din ng kaunti si Dria sa amin.

"I guess he went to get the wild princess at that time. Could you tell us the whole thing?" I rolled my eyes and told them everything that happened last night. "Girl, seriously? You actually need to control. Yes we're at a legal age, but seriously, you might get yourself in danger at this point." Chandria said with a concerned voice.

"Argh! Girl, I just wanted a breather, okay? Ang higpit kasi ni daddy masyado eh," pagmamaktol ko sa kanila. "I know he is only thinking about my safety, because we're rich. But grabe naman, I mean look," I pointed at Zachary. "He is going to guard me 24/7, and that means he ain't leaving my room not even for a fucking second." sinandal ko ang likuran ko sa sandalan at nag crossed arms.

"Yes we know, Solar. Our dads have been best friends since their teenage days and became rich together, but we never complained to the guards who are constantly eyeing us 24/7. Well, not as fucked up yours, but yeah, we're good. Just slow down the parties, eventually your dad will be less strict." I looked at both of them, they always make sense. But I just can't help it getting pissed like this.

The girls decided to go home after staying in our house for 3 hours. "See you at school tomorrow, Solar!" I waved at the girls good bye as their cars drove away. After that wonderful time, nagpunta ako sa kwarto para gawin ang mga school works ko, actually tapos na ang karamihan ginawa ko to lahat after ko ma-received lahat ng to. Isa nalang ang hindi ko pa natapos, it was a reflective essay at masyadong madaming words ang required kaya hindi ko siya natapos agad.

When I finished my school work, I decided to go downstairs to eat. I was peacefully eating alone when dad arrived sa dining hall.

"Hello, love!" Dad greeted me and kissed me on my cheeks. Umupo din siya sa table and inasikaso din siya ng mga maids, nagsimula na din siyang kumain. "I hope hindi mo na naman tinakasan si Zachary ngayong araw, what you did last night nearly kill me." I rolled my eyes at him.

"Dad, ang oa naman. Kill talaga? Besides I was just having fun, may mali ba dun?" Uminom ako mg tubig pagkatapos kong sabihin yun.

"Yes! Kill talaga and there is nothing wrong about 'having fun', it's just that alam mo naman na ikaw nalang ang meron ako, Solar. After your mom died I promised myself that I won't let anything happen to you. I love you and you are my only memory of your mother, sana naman maintindihan mo." yumuko ako when he mentioned mom. My mom got assassinated when I was 6, kaya sobrang higpit na ni daddy sakin ever since. He was so traumatized and in so much pain, he was there when my mom died. Kaya siguro halos mabaliw na rin siya kaka-protekta sa akin kasi ayaw niya mangyari din yun sa akin.

"I know that, I'm sorry. But I hope that you can move on already, if mom sees you right now, she isn't happy about your state." I got up and went upstairs leaving dad in there. Papasok na sana ako ng kwarto pero huminto ako at humarap kay Zach. "Maglilinis ako ng katawan kaya dito ka lang." I ordered at pumasok na sa kwarto, hinubad ko na din ang damit ko at pumasok sa bathroom para makapag-shower. After taking a shower and blow drying my hair nag bihis na din ako ng night gown. Lumabas ako ng walk-in closet at buti nalang hindi ko nakita si Zach sa loob ng kwarto ko, I crawled into my bed at humiga na. Nakatitig ako sa kisame ngayon, staring at the glow in the dark atmosphere na nakadikit sa kisame ko.

I know that he was just protecting me, but sometimes it was too much. Sana naman ma realize niya na yun, naramdaman ko nalang na bumigat ang mata ko at hinayaan ang sariling makatulog. I need energy, lalo na tomorrow sa school. It will be a long day ahead...

Naalimpungatan ako cause I felt someone caressing my hair and fixed my blanket, but hindi ko inimulat ang mata ko kasi inaantok pa talaga ako. All of a sudden, the person kissed my forehead and said something before I dozed off again.

"Goodnight, my Solaria."
