"Then?"

"Using one of my aircrafts will allow him to know where the hell on earth I'm heading to. I'll use Marco's aircraft on my way to Samar."

Tumango si Bailey. "Ganito na lang. Let Gemma pretend that she's you. Dito siya mananatili sa bahay habang ikaw ay pupuntang Samar. I know your husband. He's putting secret cameras on your office to monitor you the whole time. It's way safer if she'll stay here."

Napangiti naman ako sa turan ng pinsan ko. "That's exactly what I want to happen."

"Kapag nakuha mo na ang marriage contract niyo, anong gagawin mo?" tanong ni uncle.

Bumuga ako ng marahas na hangin. "Wala pa akong plano. For now, my goal is to find that marriage contract I had."

"What if wala na doon?" anas ni Marco. "What if he already placed it into somewhere?"

"Let's just hope I can find it there." Napahawak ako sa likod ng aking ulo nang sumakit ang tahi ko. "For now, I think those revelations is enough for today. G-gusto ko munang magpahinga."

Tumango agad silang tatlo. Uncle volunteered to give me one of their house's room but I refused. Gusto ko munang bisitahin ang kompanya namin.

"Ihahatid na kita," Marco said.

Tumango ako dito at nagpaalam na ako sa mag-ama. Inalalayan naman ako ni Marco hanggang sa makapasok ako sa kanyang sasakyan.

"Sigurado ka na ba sa pinaplano mo?" he asked as he maneuvered the car away from uncle's residence.

Tumango ako dito at prenteng umupo. "Though I still can't understand some things, I can proceed to my plans without knowing them."

"You mean, your husband's explanation," pagtutumbok nito sa iniiisip ko. "I really think Lace has his reasons."

I scoffed and closed my eyes. Pinatunog niya naman ang stereo para kahit papano ay may mag-ingay sa loob ng sasakyan.

Before I doze to sleep, I heard the music played. My chest tightened and my heart bleed. Tears rolled down my closed eyes while listening to the song.

Nagising ako sa mahinang pag-uga ni Marco sa balikat ko. Tumingin agad ako sa labas ng bintana at mahinang nagpasalamat.

"Want me to escort you inside?" he offered and I shook my head.

"No need, Marco. Thank you. Mauuna na ako."

Agad akong lumabas ng sasakyan at pumasok sa loob ng building. The guard greeted me in delight same as the other employees which I just responded with a nod and tight smile.

Dumiretso ako sa elevator at pinindot ang top floor kung saan naroroon ang opisina ng Chairman. I'm in the mood to play games with him. And who knows nandoon din si mommy.

I run my fingers through my hair carefully. Ayokong bumukas ang tahi ko. The doctor said it would take a month before it'll turn into scar and my hair to start growing.

The elevator opened and I stormed out of the place. Agad na tumayo ang temporaryong sekretarya ni Leslie at binati ako. Hindi ko ito pinansin at pumasok agad sa loob ng opisina ni Leslie.

Naabutan ko siyang busy sa pagpiperma ng mga dokumento habang panay naman ang pag-ring ng phone niya.

"Jen, go to Financial Department. I want to talk to their head right now," he said; not bothering to lift his gaze to see if the person who entered his office is his secretary or nah.

Nang mapansin niya sigurong hindi ako gumalaw ay nag-angat ito ng tingin. I saw him stilled while looking at me.

"Kitty..."

I bit the inside of my cheeks to rein my anger and burst of emotions. Pinilit ko ang sariling ngumiti at magpanggap. I smiled widely and closed the door behind me. Ini-lock ko pa ito at matamis na ngumiti.

I saw him eyed me from head to toe. I'm wearing a three inches above the knee stripped pencil skirt and a spaghetti strap blouse. Ito lang kasi ang nahagilap ko sa closet kanina kaya ito na ang pinili ko bago ako nagtungo sa penthouse ni Marco.

"Hey, dad." I smiled and walked towards his office table. Nilapag ko ang aking phone sa mesa at naglakad patungo sa likuran ng upuan niya. My hand touched his shoulders and gently squeezed it. I felt him stilled. "You're stressing yourself again."

Good God, pigilan ko ako baka masakal ko ang lalaking 'to.

"You should be resting, Kitty," mariing saad nito.

I hummed and moved the back rest of his chair to make him face me. Walang pag-aalinlangan akong umupo sa kanyang kandungan paharap sa kanya. Mabilis naman ang mga kamay nitong pinalibot sa bewang ko para suportahan ang balanse ko.

Ganito 'yun... ganitong-ganito ang nasaksihan ko sa opisina niya noon.

My arms wrapped around his neck and I dramatically rested my forehead on his shoulders and nuzzled on his neck. Mas naramdaman ko na natigilan ito sa reaksiyon ko.

"I want to rest but I want to cuddle," I muttered. "I went to Marco and he said I should obtain my father's permissions. You know, your daughter—"

Napasinghap ako nang bigla nitong diniin ang balakang ko sa kanya kaya't ramdam na ramdam ko ang namumukol na kaibigan niya. Nalislis naman paangat ang suot kong pencil skirt kaya't alam kong litaw na litaw na ang pang-upo ko.

I can feel his calloused hand caressed my butt cheeks in a sensual way. "Why the fuck you want to cuddle?"

I shrugged. I moved my hips and I felt the interaction of our clothed private parts. Muli ko itong ginawa na nagpadaing sa 'kin ng mahina.

"I want to cuddle," I murmured. "Let's cuddle, daddy. I promise this time I'll play with you."

Inalis nito ang mukha ko sa kanyang leeg at tinignan ako ng mata sa mata. Fury ignited my chest while watching the man who broke my heart filled his eyes with raw lust.

"What do you mean?" he asked in a very deep voice.

I bit my lips and moved my hips again. "You said you played me without me knowing it was a game." Yumukod ako sa kanyang tenga at kinagat ang earlobe nito. "But now, I can be your playmate."

"What?" he asked; catching his breath.

I giggled and let desire fill me in. I continue grinding my hips on his as I felt him getting more and more aroused. Diniin ko ang aking mukha sa kanyang leeg at kinagat ito.

I bit, nipped, and sucked a skin on his neck where it could be seen easily even if he's wearing a shirt with collar. Mas bumilis rin ang galaw ng balakang ko dahilan para mahawakan nito ang bewang ko.

"Fuck, Kitty. Stop it."

Umiling ako dito. "Ohh..."

I find it pleasurable even without our body touching each other's skin. Hindi ako tumigil kahit panay ang pagpipigil niya.

I guided his hand to fondle my breast. Hinihingal na ako ngunit hindi ako tumigil lalo na't nararamdaman ko na naman ang naramdaman ko walong taon na ang nakakalipas.

"Ahh..." I moaned loudly as felt myself released juices I never thought I could release. "That was good."

"Damn, baby," I felt him looked up the ceiling and exhaled. "Don't be a temptress."

Hindi ko ito pinakinggan. I held his jaw and captured his lips for an ardent kiss.

Someone knocked on the door. "Sir. Nandito po ang asawa niyo."

Sa sinabi ng sekretarya, nakagat ko ng mariin ang labi niya. I heard him groaned before I finally pulled away.

Tangina mo, Leslie. Ako ang asawa mo.

I bit my lip and took a deep breath.

Sayang lang at hindi kami naabutan ni Mommy sa ganoong sitwasyon. I want her to know how deja vu feels like.

Kalma, Keith. Masasampal mo rin sila ng marriage contract.
