It Started With A Lie

Chapter 24

Raven's POV

   "I love you", paulit-ulit pa ding echo ng katagang yun ni Shannon kanina lang habang kumakain kami. Hindi ko maipaliwanag ang nararamdaman ko ng marinig ko yun. Para bang tumalon ang puso ko palabas ng ribcage at nagsasayaw sa sobrang saya. Oo, hindi ko na itatanggi pa, labis ang tuwa ko sa sinabi nyang mahal nya ako. Kahit puro sya kalokohan batid ko ang totoo sa loob nya yun.

Kita ko sa kislap ng mata at suyo ng pagtitig nya sakin na mahal nya talaga ako, at yun lang ang hinihintay ko, ang maramdamang sensero talaga sya sakin at hindi lang nangti-trip.

Halos hindi mapuknat ang ngiti sa labi ko, ng may magtanong sa kakaibang siglang nadarama ko, sinagot ko na lamang na masaya ako kasi naging matagumpay ang aming outreach program which is true din naman. Isa sa kaligayahan ko ang makapag turo sa mga bata may special needs man o wala. Biggest achievement para sakin yung maibahagi yung kaalaman ko at makapagbigay tulong sa kanila.

Nagkakasayahan na ang lahat, aside sa konting handang pagkain, may videoke din at habang nag kakantahan may alak silang iniinom, tuba daw yun kaya hindi nakakalasing. At hindi rin ako nakatanggi ng ialok sakin yung tuba. Chini-cheer pa ko kaya wala na kong nagawa kundi tunggain yung nasa baso na puno by the way.

"Bottoms up, bottoms up!" Isa si Shannon sa mga nangungunang many udyok. May palagay din ako na sya ang may pakana ng lahat kaya nakatikim sya sakin ng death glare.

Unang lapat ng tuba sa bibig akala ko mapait, hindi naman pala, medyo mananamis namis so nagawa ko syang ubusin ng walang aberya. Mayabang na ibinaba ko yung baso sa mesa ng masaid ang laman, smug akong tumingin kay Shannon at para bang sinasabing "I did it". Tumaas ang sulok ng labi nya at dahan dahang pumalakpak.. "I'm impressed. You're not as sissy as I thought you are naman pala".

Whuuuutt??? My nose flared up after hearing what she just said. Sinabayan pa ng "ohhhhhh"  ng mga nakapaligid samin.

"Ay Raven hinahamon ka oh, ipakita mo nga kung paano kang naging tumadora noon" si Lanie. Minasahe pa ako kunyare na para bang sinasabing  ako ang manok nya.

"Heh! Tigilan nyo nga ako. Pinagbigyan ko na kayo, ayos na yun. Maka tumadora ka dyan eh kung ikaw umiinom dyan. Maaga pa tayong babiyahe bukas pabalik ng Manila"..

"Psssh, I take it back, you are not just sissy, you're also a baby, tuba lang tinatanggihan mo? As if naman malalasing ka dito"..Si Shannon, habang smug na nakatingin sakin at nilalaro laro yung bote ng tuba..

I leaned closer to her, "Bitch, I don't care even if you call me the sissiest of all. And it's not that I can't drink but because I have a reputation to maintain. As teacher, I believe I have to act the way a respectable teacher should", I whispered between my  clenched teeth..

"Ohh really?" She said in a British accent..

After a few hours...

"Pour me some more! Di ako lashing! Whouush the shisshy now huh?!"

I don't know what happened but I heard my voice cracked and my words are getting more and more slurry. My hand feels numb as I grip the glass, demanding them to fill it with more tuba.  I feel weak too but I won't let them know, especially Shannon, I don't want to give her the satisfaction of teasing me a loser.

So here I am, pretending to be a pro. Kahit pa para nang umiikot ang paningin ko at pakiramdam ko masusuka na ko any moment ay mayabang ko pa ding pinapasalinan ng alak yung baso ko, at saka sabi nila hindi to nakakalasing??

"That's enough, lasing ka na..you've prove yourself. Hindi ka na sissy".

"N-noo, no, no", kumumpas kumpas pa ko habang umiiling, " uubushin natin lahat to, don't tell me hek, ikaw ang lashing kaya ayaw mo na??"

"I'm not drunk but for your sake, fine. I am drunk. I quit. You won". I heard her say.

"Huh! See? Whouush the sissy noow? Ughhh" I feel like vomiting so I covered​ my mouth with my hand..Parang mas bumilis pa ang ikot ng paligid, nalindol ba?

May naririnig akong bulungan. Hindi malinaw sa pandinig ko kung ano man yun but I was fast enough to answer back with "I love you too" before passing out..

Naalimpungatan ako sa malamig na bimpong dumadampi sa mukha ko. Dahan dahan kong iminulat ang mga mata ko at bumungad sa paningin ko ang mukha ni Shannon..

"So you love too me huh, since when?" Tanong nya ng makitang nagigising na ako.

"Huh?" Was all I can answer. Umiikot pa din paningin ko pero base sa nakikita ko, nasa inuukopang kubo na kami. Na hindi ko alam kung paano kami nakapunta.

"Say it again Raven, say it again" narinig ko na namang mahinang sabi nya..

Say what?

"Say it again. Say that you love me too please. Tell me that I'm not just imagining it when I heard you say it awhile ago." she plead.

I smiled at her, closed my eyes and whispered the words she was dying to hear, "I love you dimwit".

Next thing I knew, her wicked lips was devouring mine. Na conscious pa ko nung ipasok nya yung dila nya sa bibig ko, shocks baka bad breath na ko??

I jerked when I felt her hand kneeding my breast, ramdam ko pagmamadali sa kilos nya. Hindi pa nakontento, pinasok pa nya sa loob ng shirt ko yung kamay nya at doon dumama dama ng kung ano man (hahahaha shocks sorry na, natatawa po ang author sa sinusulat nya. Feeling perstym ulit gumawa ng spg hahaha)

Nung maramdaman kong parang ibinababa na nya yung pants ko, inawat ko na sya.

"What? Don't tell me ngayon ka pa aayaw? Andito na eh, Ito na oh, hawak ko na boobs mo!" Pinisil pisil pa nya talaga.  The hell?

"What? No, I'm diz-" she cut me off by kissing me really hard. She even changed our position, making me on top of her...

It was trying to break out from her chain locking kind of kiss. She was gripping my waist so tight I can't even move a muscle..

"If you're trying to get away, think again. I dreamt for this to happen for quite so long now and tonight is the night, kung aayaw ka well then, raping you is my last option" she said in between gasping.

Kung maiba sitwasyon, matatawa pa ko sa kanya. Para syang rapist talaga na hayok sa laman. Pero since hilong hilo na ko tinampal ko sya sa noo at nagpilit kumawala.

"Where do you think you're going? Come to mama, I'm gonna make you scream my name and impregnate you with my tongu-----fuuuuuck!"

I wiped the side of my mouth after puking,  I believe, every food I ate that day...

"That's what I'm trying to say".. my laughter roared in the solemnity of the night. Disgust was written all over her face..:-D
