HG 3: Slave of Darkness

13 ~ PILLS

"Let's go to my room."

Nagpatianod siya na parang malayang agos ng tubig sa ilog.

Isang kasambahay ang nasalubong nila sa hallway. Bumati ito sa kanila at napatingin sa magkahawak nilang kamay, bago dumeretso sa pupuntahan.

Zacariel's room is spacious. At the center of it is the king sized bed. The door on the balcony made her see the right side of the horse field outside. There are also some antique paintings on the neat wall.

He let go of her hand when she sat at the edge of his bed. He walked towards the night stand table and open the drawer. Pagkabalik sa kanya ay hawak na ang isang box ng pills. Umupo ito sa tabi niya at ibinigay sa kanya iyon.

"Thank you," she accepted it with a bit of uneasiness.

"I bought only one box because I want to know if you would like that brand or not."

"So we can always change the brand if ever I didn't like the side effects?"

"Yes."

"Kailangan ko lang ito kung palagi tayong magkikita," uminit ang pisngi niya nang manliit ang mga mata ng kasintahan.

Hindi man direkta, pero parang naintindihan kaagad nito na kapag magkikita sila, tiyak na may mangyayari sa pagitan nila. She expected it to happen, but it seemed like Zacariel is confused.

"Hmm, I got what you want to tell me, but I want to make myself clear about that, Yelena," he faced her and hold her hand.

"Huh?"

"Baby, this is not all about sex. This relationship is more than that."

Ngumuso siya at nag iwas ng tingin. Siya lang talaga yata ang nag-iisip ng tungkol doon?

"Look, just because I want to be with you, it doesn't mean I want to have sex with you. It's not that. Gusto kitang makasama kahit walang gano'n."

And here she is, thinking that whenever they are together and alone, they would have sex!

Yelena blushed, that made Zacariel groaned. Mabilis nitong natanto ang iniisip niya. Parang gusto niya na tuloy tumayo, tumakbo at magkulong sa silid niya dahil sa kahihiyan.

He chuckled huskily. "I hope you won't see me as a man who always like to have sex."

Mas lalong nag-init ang magkabilang pisngi nya. Siya talaga ang may problema sa kanilang dalawa dahil sa totoo lang, kapag mag isa na siya sa kama, naglalaro sa isipan niya ang maiinit na sandaling pinagsaluhan nila sa Maynila. And she's expecting that it would happen again.

Hindi na siya makatingin ng deretso kay Zacariel. She's guilty because she sees him as a man who is expert in bed and would have sex with her whenever they are alone.

"Naisip ko lang naman na posibleng may mangyari ulit sa atin kapag tayong dalawa lang."

"But if you don't want that, we won't do that."

"Talaga?"

Tumango ito na para bang sigurado na talaga sa desisyon na hanggat ayaw niya, hindi nila gagawin 'yon.

"At kapag gusto ko?"

Animo nahihirapan na napayuko ito at mariin na napapikit.

"Pero ayaw mo? Walang mangyayari?" patuloy niya.

"Dapat ay pareho nating gusto, Yelena."

When his eyes went back on her, she can't help but gulp. Tila ba bumalik ang init sa pagitan nila kanina habang naghahalikan at kaunting galaw lang, magliliyab ulit 'yon.
