HOPE DE GUZMAN

I woke up in an uncomfortable position. I heard a jazz music, I also smelled meat.

Nakakunot ang noo ko nang dahan-dahan kong buksan ang aking mga mata. Nang i-angat ko ang ulo ko ay may nakita akong isang gwapong lalaki sa harapan ko. He's resting his elbows at the table full of dishes, and he smiling directly at me.

"My goddess, I'm Seungcheol. And I am your date for tonight," Napakunot ang noo ko.

Bumalik ako sa huwisyo nang matandaan ko ang nangyari! I tried to move but then I realized that I was tightly tied up in a chair. Ni hindi ko magalaw ang sarili ko dahil sa higpit ng pagkatali!

Mas nagulat ako nang makita kong iba na rin ang suot ko ngayon! It's a white silk dress with slit on the sides and gold details. Anong kagaguhan 'to!?

"You look like a goddess, so I dressed you up like one. My Hera, I am your Zeus," he smiled, revealing his deep dimples, and making his healthy gums appear.

"Pakawalan mo ako!" I protested.

"We're dating, we should enjoy the food first and try to get to know each other," he pouted.

Joke time ba 'to? Ako parang sasali sa isang contest dahil sa suot ko tapos siya parang aattend sa prom!? He's wearing a black suit and tie, as if we're really dating. Kinikilabutan ako, ganito ba talaga siya!?

"But since it's your first time to date, it's my pleasure to guide you. Lalo na't hindi mo magagalaw ang sarili mo ngayon. I will be your hands, I will control you, babe," he bit his lower lip before sitting next to me.

"Alisin mo ako rito! Kahit kailan hindi ako makikipagdate sa kagaya mo!" I exclaimed.

He chuckled, "As if naman may choice ka? Sawa na akong magpaubaya. As much as I can get all I want, I will grab it. It's just unfortunate that as of now, you're all that I wanted," I avoided his hands as he tried to touch my face.

"Layuan mo ako! Kadiri ka! Ang baboy mo!" dinuraan ko siya sa sobrang inis.

He just laughed, "Ang cute mo. Kailan ko ba puwedeng i-schedule ang kasal natin?" He checked his phone while wiping my spit on his suit.

"Choi Seungcheol!"

"Hindi ka ba hinihingal kapag binabanggit mo ang buong pangalan ko? Pabor naman sa'king tawagin mo rin akong babe," he chuckled.

I was catching my breath, finding ways to remove myself from being tied. He looked at me, "Let's eat," he told me.

"Tanga ka ba!? Nakatali ako rito tapos papakainin mo ako? Pakawalan mo ako bobo?!" pagmamatapang ko, pero kinurot niya lang ang pisngi ko.

"I was wrong no'ng sabihin kong magkaparehas kayo. Masyado kang matapang para ikumpara ko sa kaniya," sino ba siya!? Kingina niya!

"I fear strong girls, but I also like them. I want to tame bad girls who don't obey their daddies," I got chills when he started to brush my hair with his fingers.

"Kung magpapakasal ako sa'yo ngayon, paano ang iba?" he smirked.

"Walang magpapakasal sa'yo kasi gago ka! Pakawalan mo ako isa!"

He laughed, pero bakas ang pagkainsulto ko sa kaniya. Na-offend siya, huh! Deserve! Ayaw na ayaw ko sa mga lalaking feeling makukuha nila ang lahat ng gusto nila nang sapilitan. Nag-iinit ang ulo ko dahil sa lalaking 'to!

"Bakit ba ang tapang mo?" he asked.

"Kasi mahina ka! Ambisyoso! Delusyonado! Feeling mo lahat makukuha mo! Easy to get! Low quality!" I continued to insult him, he just nodded and accepted all my words.

"Tapos ka na? Kumain na tayo," he smiled.

"Hindi ako kakain kasama ka! Nandidiri ako sa'yo--" I stopped talking when he suddenly grabbed a knife and pointed it directly to my neck.

"Masyado ka nang maraming nasasabi, gusto mo bang tanggalin ko 'yang lalamunan mo?" he threatened me with his cold husky voice.

I gulped, he just smiled at me again, "Since nakatali ka, dahil alam kong pipiglas ka sa'kin, ako nalang ang magsusubo ng pagkain sa'yo,"

"Ayaw ko--" I immediatwly stopped protesting when I felt the knife touching my skin.

"I am good at slitting throats of pigs. Don't make me do it on my future wife," his voice even turned darker!

Nagsimula na siyang maghiwa ng karne, "Para kang nanganganak na baboy. Napakadaldal mo, ang dami mong sinasabi," he pouted habang tinitinidor ang karneng hiniwa niya.

"Nasasaktan mo ako dahil sa sobrang talim ng mga salita mo. Madali akong masaktan sa mga naririnig ko," he sulked.

"Nganga, kainin mo 'to," dahil sa takot na baka diinan niya pa ang pagkalapat ng kutsilyo sa leeg ko, ngumanga ako.

He looked satisfied, he smiled while looking at me, I looked away, "How's it? First time kong magluto para sa babaeng papakasalan ko," he giggled.

Okay naman ang luto niya, pero hindi ko magawang ma-enjoy dahil sa nakatutok na kutsilyo sa leeg ko! Nang ilunok ko ay sinubuan niya pa ako ng marami, hanggang sa maubos ko na ang pagkaing hinain niya para sa akin.

"Oh 'di ba? Ang tahimik kapag sumusunod ka lang sa'kin. 'Wag ka nang pumalag. I am a good guy, I swear. Just don't mess with me, I will make you feel like you're living in hell once you protest," he smiled.

"You are too independent, it makes me want to protect you. You don't have to worry about things," he told me while wiping the dirt on the corner of my lips.

"I've been rooting on your journey since then. I want to be with you, help you in raising your sister alone, I want to be the one who will help you in your struggles. I knew them all," he cupped my cheeks for me to face him.

"I can be that Cherry you met on internet, I will gladly hear your rants and thoughts. I can be your date, I am fully committed to marry you," he smiled.

"But babe, I can also be your nightmare. I don't want you to protest, I am a sensitive man. Just don't make your husband mad,"

"I've been a bad guy in other's life. I don't want to be bad on our own story. Just don't trigger me, please. I've been acting nice since the day that I knew you," he leaned closer to my face.

I want to move away, pero nakatali ako! At kung gagalaw-galaw ako ay baka ako na mismo ang sumaksak sa sarili ko!

"I won't be the loser here. I will make you mine," he smirked before kissing my lips deeply.

I shivered, I don't know what to react, I haven't kiss anyone yet! I want to move away, but I can't!

"I love you," he smiled as he let go of the kiss.

Hindi ko maintindihan ang nararamdaman ko, natatakot ako, nangangamba, naiinis, naiiyak!

He's a creepy guy, I have escape from his terrifying desires. I have to get rid of his so called love!
