LOVE ME AGAIN

Chapter 10: GET EVEN

'Z-zach.' I never though that it would be this painful.

'Shit you're-' akmang tatayo siya ngunit mahigpit ko siyang niyakap.. No, stay!

'Zach no.. please!' Pagsusumamo ko.

'Fuck! Alli this is going to hurt..' I just desperately nodded at him like I'm begging for him to take me to his world of lust. He started to shower me with kisses as he move slowly inside me, I felt like i'm crushed down there.. I can feel the pain in his every move but I just cant be contented with how he carefully treat me so I welcome his every thrust even if it hurts like hell. 'Fuck.. shit! Stop it Alli..' but I never listened, I kept on welcoming him with all the strength left in me, ilang ulit ko siyang narinig na nagmura hanggang sa naramdaman ko ang paghigpit ng kapit niya sa kama at ang pagbilis ng bawat galaw niya sa loob ko. I can't helped bit moan with his move. His every thrust fills my hunger for him. This time he's movong faster and harder until I can feel the unfamiliar feeling growing again in my belly and it's tickling me down there..

'Zach!!' I almost scream his name as I felt that I reached my first orgasm.

'Oh God.. Alli.. ahhh' I gently closed my eyes as I felt him stiffen on top of me.. 'I miss you..' bulong niya bago siya bumaling sa tabi ko, he pulled me closer to him at ginawa kong unan ang bisig niya. 'Sleep..' he demanded and I obeyed politely as my eyes automatically shut down and I'm just dead to the world.

I woke up because of the ray of sunlight that hit my face. Sinubukan kong bumangon pero bumagsak din ako pabalik sa kama ng maramdaman ang pagsakit ng katawan ko lalo na sa may bandang binti. Wala na si Zach sa tabi ko pero sout ko ang white longsleeve niyang sout kagabi at sout ko na rin ang lace thong panty ko. Pinilit kong tumayo at tinignan ang sarili sa salamin, maluwag sakin at parang mini dress na ang polo niya. Magulo ang buhok ko kaya sinuklay ko gamit ang mga kamay ko. I bit my lower lip when I rememberes what happened last night, God I made myself blush. Dahan dahan kong pinihit ang door know at ng mapagtantong tahimik naman ay nagtiptoe ako palabas.

'Hi' muntik na akong mapamura sa gulat pero mas nagulat ako ng malingunan ko sa may sofa ang may katangkarang babae na nakapony tail ang itim at shiny nitong buhok, she's wearing a black peplum blouse and bandage skirt. Simple but pretty. Sino na naman to?

Tumikhim ako bago nag ayos ng tayo at hinarap siya. 'And you are?' Nakangiting tanong ko kahit nagwawala na naman ang puso ko. Is she the?

'Trina Marseiles, Zach's assistant.' The assistant? Really? Ganito kaganda at kasexy? Really Zach?

'Oh I'm Alli.. Alliyah Esquibelle.' Lumapit ako at naglahad ng kamay. Nakakahiya, wala pa akong toothbrush or hilamos manlang.

'Oh I see.. the 'Miss Esquibelle' hindi ko makuha kung bakit may diin ang Miss Esquibelle at bakit ito nakangisi sakin. 'It's nice to finally meet you' tinanggap niya ang kamay ko at magtatanong pa sana ako ng biglang lumabas si Zach sa kabilang kwarto na huhulaan ko ay office iya dito sa condo na may dalang papers. He's wearing a white plain v-neck shirt and khaki short. Natigilan ito ng makita ako kaya agad akong bumitaw sa pagkaka-handshake kay Trina.

'You're awake.' He stared at me from head to foot kaya naging uneasy tuloy ako. 'By the ways she's-'

'It's okay, nagkakilala na kami ng fiancée mo. Don't bother' pasimpleng bumalik sa pagkakaupo si Trina at inayos ang mga dalang papeles. At ease siya kay Zach ha and she knows me, probably because she's the assistant and she knows about our deal. 'So I brought all the papers about the new project and-'

'Just leave it there Trina. Ako ng bahala. You may go'

'Oh.. okay! So i'll see you in the office then' tumango lang si Zach ngunit hindi inaalis ang titig niya sakin. Tumayo na ulit si Trina at kinuha ang sling nag sa tabi niya. 'It's nice meeting you Alli pero mauna na ako sa inyo' nakangiti nitong baling sakin. Dire-diretso itong naglakad palabas ng condo.

'Let's eat' hindi na sana ako susunod dahil gusto ko ng umuwi dahil sa nararamdaman kong hiya 'Alli! Do you want me to carry you in the kitchen?' Ngumuso lang ako pero sumunod din agad sa kanya, tahimik lang akong kumakain. 'Let's meet lolo and mommy tonight'

Natigilan ako at lumingon sa kanya, tonight? 'Akala ko sa weekend pa'

'That's what I thought but they're already back in the country last night.' Bakit parang may diin ang last night niya, pinamulahan tuloy ako sa sinabi nito. 'Alli?'

'O-okay. Zach I need to go home'

'Ihahatid na kita'

'No, it's okay. I can just get a cab'

'Really? Wearing your dress last night? No alli and drink this' may inabot siyang tablet sakin. 'I know you're feeling sore so take that.'
Hindi ko alam kung anong magiging reaksyon ko sa sinabi niya pero tumalima pa rin naman ako sa utos nito.

Tahimik lang ako sa sasakyan hanggang sa dumating na kami sa condo ko. Hindi ko na siya pinababa dahil alam kong late na rin siya sa trabaho niya. Wala si Shane at Ara dahil nagsimula na ang trabaho nila, their vacation is over kaya heto ako at nakatulala lang sa kawalan. Feeling the pain of what happened last night. I gave in to him, I gave in to someone who broke my heart, to someone who made me doubt every guy's intention, made me lost my faith in love.. I gave in to someone that I used to love, I gave in to someone because my father needs him.. who am I kidding? I gave in to him because I needed him, I needed his warmth and his attention.. I needed him because I missed him.. it's not the alcohol that made me gave in, it's my heart that betrayed me.. again.

Naligo ako dahil pupuntahan ko si daddy sa kompanya. He wants to talk to me and I knew exactly what it's all about.

'So you've met him?' Pormal na tanong nito.

'Of all people dad?  Sa kanya ka talaga humingi ng tulong?' I arched my brow and tried to keep myself calm. 'You know exactly why we broke up right?'

'Your past should belong in your past Alliyah especially that we need him to secure our company's future.'

'At my expense? Really dad?' I can taste the bitterness in my mouth as I utter those words.

'Why? Would you rather want to sell you mama's-'

'Stop bringing that up because thats the only reason why i'm still here but you could have at least warned me about him dad. You could have at least prepared me for the worst'

'Why Alli? I thought you've moved on?' Parang may bumara sa lalamunan ko sa sinabi ni daddy 'now all you need to do is marry him, it's only a year hija don't worry he's true to his words, he'd let you go when the business is fine' let me go? Parang may latigong tumama sa puso ko. Ganun ganun nalang? Gagamitin niya lang ako para sa negosyo niya? Tapos ano? Ako na naman ang masasaktan sa bandang huli? No!  I wont lose this battle again, I wont risk my heart without anything in return. If I'll lose myself in the process of saving our business I'll make sure that she'll also feel the terror of losing me.

'You what??' Gulat na tanong ni Ara sakin, nakipagkita ako sa kanya sa isang restaurant dahil sa bigat ng nararamdaman ko.

Bumuntong hininga lang ako dahil sa sumikip ang dibdib ko sa ginawang pag-amin. 'We'll be married anyway.' I tried to smile bitterly to show that I am not affected.

'For the sake of business, yes pero kasali ba sa deal niyo ang virginity mo?' Umupo si Ara sa tabi ko at nagsalin rin ng wine sa kopita, nilaguk ko agad ang wine at nagsalin ulit. 'Come on Alli? What is it? What are you thinking?'

'I want to get even Ara!' Napasandal si Ara sa upuan niya at mataman akong tinitigan.

'What do you mean?'

'If he'll use me then I'll do the same thing.. mag-gamitan na kung mag-gamitan pero ayokong ako ang talunan. Wala akong nagawa nung niloko niya ako but now that we both need each other then this will be my time to get even'

'Alli.. a-are you sure? What if you'll fall again this time? What if-'

'No Ara.. it wont be me this time..'
Bakas ang pagkalito sa mukha ni Ara. 'It will be him.. i'll make him fall for me and his love will be my revenge.'
