Heraclyne

"Hey, sorry kung hindi ko nasagot 'yung tawag mo. I was just busy preparing for the party mamaya." Sagot ko nang i-accept ang call mula kay John Steph.

"It's okay. I just have to say something important."

"Okay, what is it?"

"Baka ma-late ako ng dating mamaya dahil there's an emergency with my family back at Australia."

"Oh... so, babalik ka pa sa Australia?"

"No, I have to deal with them virtually hindi rin kasi ako pwede umalis. Is it okay with you?"

"Of course."

"Really? That's great. I'll see you later, sorry again."

"Okay." Binaba niya ang tawag bago nagpaalam.

Pagkatapos ko makipag-usap kay John Steph, saka naman pumasok sa kwarto ko si Selena.

"Who are you talking to, Ate?"

"It's John Steph, 'yung kinuwento ko sa 'yo kahapon." Umupo ako sa kama bago sinimulan suotin ang aking stilettos.

"Are you guys together? He even ask you as his date tonight."

"No. We are not, Selena. He's a friend. And hindi rin naman yata siya makakapunta ngayon."

"Why is that?"

"I don't know, may emergency daw sa kanila."

"Ba't parang malungkot ka?"

"I'm not."

"If you say so," Umupo ito sa tabi ko bago nagsalita ulit. "So... ano nangyari rito no'ng wala kami?" She smirked.

"Nangyari?"

"Yep."

"Wala. At bakit sa tingin mo may mangyayari?" Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.

"Nothing. Bagal kumilos ni Quentin." May binulong ito pero hindi ko narinig.

"May sinasabi ka?"

"Wala. Anyways, hintayin ka nalang namin sa baba." I nodded at her at inayos na ang sarili.

I'm just wearing a red maxi dress na nagpalitaw talaga sa kurba ng katawan ko. I smirked, I feel so confident in red.

"Girl in red?" Mas mabilis pa sa electric fan akong napalingon sa taong nagsalita.

And there she is, leaning so confidently and alluringly on the door side, her hair is neatly combed, hands in her pocket, dressed in a black three piece suit with her neck tie hanging so low, and her infamous smirk is plastered on her attractive face.

I don't know what's so fascinating about her that she just captivated my attention so easily.

My breath became hitched when she walked slowly towards my direction, still holding eye contact with me.

Akala ko makakahinga na ako ng maluwag pero dahil sa paghapit niya sa beywang ko papalapit sa katawan niya parang dito palang mamamatay na yata ako.

"Are you seducing me, Ms. Heraclyne Delaney Wright?" I looked at her.

I don't know why my full name sounds so sexy coming from her mouth. But wait, how did she know my first na-

Mukhang nabasa niya yata 'yung nasa isip ko at agad niya akong sinagot."I have people." I rolled my eyes at her.

"And for your information, I'm not seducing you. Ikaw nga 'tong basta-basta nalang pumapasok sa kwarto ng amo mo tapos—"

Again, I didn't have time to finish my sentence when she cut me off but this time with her lips. And there goes the unknown feeling. Hindi na ako nagpakipot at mabilis na tinugunan ang mga halik niya.
