WARNING: MATURE CONTENTDahan-dahan kong minulat ang aking mga mata nang maramdaman ang presensya sa paligid. The darkness filled the room. Tanging ang maliwanag na buwan ang nagsisilbing ilaw ngayon. Dahan-dahan ang kilos kong bumangon. I looked around the room to find Accius. Lumipat ang tingin ko sa orasan. It's already midnight. Agad akong umalis sa kama at lumabas ng kuwarto. My mouth parted when I saw Accius coming out from his office. Alam kong papasok siya sa kuwarto kaya dali-dali akong bumalik sa kuwarto. Ang lakas ng kabog ng dibdib ko. Ramdam ko rin ang init ng aking mga mata sa matinding emosyon na naramdaman. It's not because of his presence or because I'm scared of him. It's because of him, wearing a long-sleeved polo and trousers that made me overthink. Alam ko agad na aalis siya. Pupuntahan niya kaya si Tiana? So she was maybe telling the truth. Am I not really enough for him? I can't disappoint my parents. If they know that Accius is losing his interest in me, I'm
WARNING:SPG"How dare you! You're really— Ugh! Useless! You're giving me a headache! Ang dali-dali na lang ng ginagawa mo, Sadie, hindi mo pa magawa ng tama?!" "Mom…" nanghihina kong sambit. "Shut up! I thought, I don't have to worry about you, playing your role. But you disappointed me again! How could you do that? Because you're not here in this mansion anymore, I won't know what you were doing?" she muttered. I can feel my hands trembling. "Mom. I-I am doing what you want. Why–" "Then why did you leave in his mansion without him knowing?! Do you know what he'll think?! He was disappointed for sure! You even left the country with a freaking boy! Unbelievable!" She let out a heavy sigh and shook her head in disappointment. She massaged her temple while sighing. "I'm sorry. He already forgave me, Mom. You don't have to worry about t-that… I took care of it already. We're okay, w-we're doing fine," my voice cracked. I sighed and wiped my tears. "Fine?! You're not sure about that!
"Come here, Hunter." I smiled at him and patted his head. I sat on the white chair and gave the tennis ball to him. Nakaupo lang siya sa gilid ng aking inuupuan at nakabantay sa akin. Ngumiti ako habang hinahaplos siya. I turned my gaze to the bright sky. From here on the veranda of the mansion, I can see Accius' mens guarding the mansion, especially me. I let out a heavy sigh and leaned on the backrest. Pinagsiklop ko ang aking mga kamay at tahimik na tinanaw ang tanawin. Nabaling ang atensyon ko kay Hunter ng marahan niyang kinagat ang dulo ng aking mahabang itim na dress na hanggang paa ang abot. "What's the matter?" I asked. Bahagya siyang yumuko. I caressed his head because that's what he wants. He closed his eyes and relaxed as I did that. We stayed there for a while before I decided to go back. Hunter headed to his place. Nagtungo naman ako sa aming kuwarto kung nasaan si Accius. Earlier, I was just staring at his perfect face while he's sleeping. Hindi ako gaanong nakatulog
“M-Mom...” Napailing ako at hinawakan ang aking naninikip na dibdib. I can’t breathe. I am trying to calm myself but I couldn’t. “Tinalikuran kami bigla ng malalaking taong negosyante. At ang meeting ng Daddy mo sa isang makapangyarihang negosyante ay hindi na sinipot ang Daddy mo. Imagine being with partner with those powerful people, mas malaki ang chance na lalaki ang ating kumpanya katulad nila. All of it was doing good like we had planned. But suddenly this happened. At first, we thought we are the one who’s in lack and no doing good...” she shook her head and glared at me. “But we realized, your husband is the one who introduced them to us. All of them were coming from him. So, he is also the boss of them. I bet he's the one who ordered them to drop us and leave us behind!” My mouth parted at what I heard. I was shocked and confused. I couldn’t even breathe properly. I shook my head and took a deep breath. “Mom...” I whimpered. I wanted to tell her that I couldn’t breathe
“Stop it.” Inangat ko na ang strap ng aking dress at nilingon siya. He’s looking at me intently, but his hand was still on me. “Accius, can you even tell me kung nasaan ko galing kanina? I was thinking about you the whole time. You always leave like that. Alam ko naman na hindi dapat ako nakikialam sa ginagawa mo pero…” I sighed and did not continue. I shook my head and got up from the bed. “I… I’ll just get some fresh air. I feel suffocated.” Nagtungo ako sa balcony ng aming kuwarto. I looked at my shaking hands. I bit my lower lip to stop my tears from falling. Hindi ko ininda ang lamig na bumabalot sa aking katawan dahil sa hangin at lamig ng labas. Naramdaman ko na lang ang roba kong binalot ang aking nilalamig na katawan. I turned at Accius who put his black silk robe on me. Habang siya ay topless at walang suot na roba dahil sinuot niya sa akin ang kaniya. He hugged me from the back and gently kissed my shoulder. Napapikit ako nang higpitan niya pa lalo ang kaniyang pagkayaka
I flinched when he rubbed my cl*t with his middle finger. His other hand was on my belly. He leaned down and kissed my tummy while staring at me. I gasped and bit my lower lip because of the sensation. Nagbaba ang tingin ko sa kaniya at sinuklay ang kaniyang magulong buhok gamit ang aking daliri. "I'm tired…" I mumbled. Pinag dikit ko ang nanghihina kong mga hita. I can feel his arousal, still hard like steel. "I want more of you," he said huskily. Isang oras pa ang lumipad bago niya ako binitawan. I am so tired that I couldn't move my body. "How's your body?" Accius asked, entering our room while holding a tray of fruits. I smiled a bit and leaned on the backrest of my seat. He kissed my forehead and put the tray on the round table that was in front of me here in the balcony. Umupo siya sa tabi ko at kinuha ang tinidor. He feeds me, every feed of him will follow with a kiss on my lips. Napangiti ako at mahinang natawa. “I feel like a sick wife,” I said, chuckling softly. He smil
“Yes po, Madame. H-Hindi ni’yo po ba alam?” tanong niya. She was a bit shocked that I did not know about that. I sighed. Guiltiness filled me. I didn’t even think about that. “What does he do on his birthday?” She sadly smiled. “Wala po talaga siyang ginagawa tuwing kaarawan niya. Nasa loob lang po siya ng kuwarto na ‘yon buong araw. Doon lang po siya nagpapahinga. Hindi ko nga po alam kung bakit tuwing kaarawan niya ay naroon siya. May mga araw naman po na umaalis siya pero bumabalik din po siya agad,” she paused, thinking about something.“Is he not spending his days with his friends?” I asked. “Hindi po. May isang beses po na pinuntahan siya ng mga kaibigan niyang galing pang ibang bansa at nagtungo dito para sa kaniya pero hindi niya po pinapasok. Ang sabi niya ay may pupuntahan daw po siyang importante.”“Really? Ano naman ang pinuntahan niya para gawin ‘yon sa mga kaibigan niya?” “Ang natatandaan ko po ay sinabi niyang may pupuntahan po siyang… graduation?” she said, unsure
“Mom… C-Can you please enlighten me? What’s really happening? W-Why do you want me to leave this place?” “Sadie. Just listen to me! It is for your sake! I will explain it to you once you are here,” she said. Sa pananalita niya ay parang nagmamadali siya. Ang aniyang boses ay parang bumubulong. Sumulyap ako sa pintuan at agad na nagtungo sa walk-in closet ko. “M-Mom… I” I held my hand that was holding my phone because it was shaking so bad. Huminga ako ng malalim at handa nang sabihin sa ina ang nakita kanina. “What— I’ll end the call now. Your father is here.”“Mom–” I sighed and bit my lower lip. Napahilamos na lang ako sa mukha at pabagsak na umupo sa single couch. "Doll." Napatayo ako nang marinig ang marahang boses ni Accius. He sounds so gentle. "Doll, please. I love you so much. I'm not going to do anything that will hurt you. I'll apologize if I kept a secret from you. I'll kneel if I need to.""Please, Wife. Open the door. I'm begging you," his voice cracked. Para akong m
