CHAPTER 6:THE NIGHT
***
FLASHBACK CONTINUATION...
IT WAS a typical birthday celebration of the Fuentes family for the triplets as they turned eighteen. Bukod sa mga kaklase nito ay nag-imbita rin ang mga kapatid nito ng ilang malalapit na tao sa kanila. Ginaganap ang selebrasyon sa isa sa hotel ng mga Fuentes.
"Happy birthday to you~" pag-awit ng mga tao sa paligid bago hinipan ng tatlo ang mga kandila sa mga cake nila.
"Thank you po sa lahat," Samara sweetly replied bago pumunta sa mesa ng mga kabarkada niyang kumakain na. Nagpasalamat din ang dalawang binatilyong sina Sebastian at Sander sa lahat ng nagpaunlak ng imbitasyon nila.
"Mom, I'll just be in my room. May conference call lang ako with Mr. Claremont," sabi ni Ysiquel, the eldest son and the CEO of Fuentes Corporation. May private rooms ang mag-anak dito sa hotel nila dahil malayo-layo rin kung uuwi pa sila gayong malalim na ang gabi.
"Can't that wait, son? Masyado ka nang busy sa work. Take a break din para naman ma-enjoy mo ang party," hiling ni Ysabelle sa panganay. Nasa 40's na niya ang babae pero hindi batid sa kanyang mas nakababatang hitsura. She was still beyond beautiful.
"Mom, it's a teens' party. I'm too old for this," he chuckled.
True enough. Puro mga estudyanteng mga kabarda ng kanyang mga kapatid ang naroroon. Mayroon ibang mga kaibigan ng pamilya nila ngunit mas marami rito ay mga pamilyado na at iniintindi ang kanilang mga supling o 'di kaya ay magkakasama ang mga magkakakilala.
"Are you saying I'm too old for this?" nakapamaywang at nakataas na kilay na tanong ng ina niya.
"Nope. You are never too old, mom. Kaya nga hooked up pa rin si dad sa 'yo all these years. Where is dad anyway?"
"Bolero ka talaga, Quel. Siguro kasama ng Ninang Cath mo. You know, break ng mga gangsters ngayon," bulong lang ang huling pahayag niya.
Sa kanilang magkakapatid, si Ysiquel lang ang nakaaalam tungkol dito—sa gangsters na pinamumunuan ng ama nila.
"Ahh... Makes sense."
"Stay ka na rin at mag-celebrate!" Nag-pout ang nanay niya at natawa siya.
"I'm already a bit tipsy, mom, and I need that investment from Claremont's kaya hayaan n'yo na 'ko. Just call me if you need anything. Sige, mom, sa hotel room ko muna ako." He kissed his mom's cheek and then walked towards the elevator.
Close sila ng mom niya simula pagkabata pero hindi siya isang mama's boy. He just treasures his family so much because of what happened in the past.
Ayaw na ayaw niyang makikitang iiyak ang kahit sino sa pamilya niya. Maybe it runs in the blood, like what his dad said when he was a kid. He was young, but his memory had been sharp since then. He was traumatized, but his parents were there all the way. Kaya nga lang, hindi na niya ito nalimutan. The memories were etched in his memories for the span of his lifetime.
"Shit, Sammy! Ang gwapo ng kuya mo!" Lumingon si Ysiquel to find a table of college girls all in a table.
"Waah! Tumingin siya rito!" sabi ng isa.
"Hi, kuya! Aalis ka na?" pasigaw na tanong ni Samara dahil may distansya sila.
"No. Sa room lang ako to finish some urgent work." He meant his VIP room in the hotel.
"Ah! O sige po. Don't stress so much! Love you!" Pasadya ni Samara na laksan ang pag-I love you niya sa kapatid para mainggit ang mga kasama.
At hindi siya binigo ng kapatid. He read her mind.
"Love you, too," sagot nito at pagkatapos ay narinig niyang nagtilian sa inggit ang mga kaibigan niya. Teenage girls are still kids, bulong ni Ysiquel sa sarili at sumakay na sa elevator. He wanted to finish his work.
IIANG ORAS na magmula nang magsimula ang party ay nakatayo naman si Rainne at hinihilot ang sentido sa isang tahimik na pasilyo. Magagawa nga ba nitong makauwi mag-isa? Paniguradong naghihintay na ang ina at lolo niya sa mansyon.
Bago pa ang party ng mga Fuentes ay may isa pa siyang pinuntahan at hindi siya pinayagang hindi iinom ng hard drinks doon bago umalis. And she regrets it big time right now.
"Miss? Ayos ka lamang ba?" Nanginig ang katawan ni Rainne sa boses na iyon. Lumingon siya at nakita ang nag-aalalang mukha ni Ysiquel. Ang lalaking matagal na niyang pinagpapantasyahan.
"A-ayos lang!" she chuckled in her own stuttering voice. This isn't how she imagined her second meeting with him would be.
But the same feelings she had during the first time were relinquished. With a fast heartbeat, a blush on her cheeks, and wobbly legs, Rainne knew she was in trouble.
Hindi niya napigilang titigan ang lalaking nasa harapan. Ysiquel was as intimidating as before pero lutang na lutang ang kagwapuhan nito sa suot nitong dark blue na business suit.
"Hindi ba ikaw 'yong nasa bahay last time?"
Tumango-tango si Rainne at saka naramdamang matutumba siya palikod sanhi ng mabilisang pagtango. Napapikit na lamang siya. Pero wala siyang narinig na pagbagsak.
Binuksan niya ang mga mata niya at nakita ang napakalapit na mukha ni Ysiquel sa kanya. He saved her from falling on her ass... again. That would have hurt.
"Seriously? Lagi ka ba talagang matutumba kapag magkikita tayo?"
Tinulungan niya itong tumayo nang maayos. Babalik na sana ito sa party ng mga kapatid dahil maagang natapos ang kanyang meeting nang matagumpay. He wanted to celebrate kahit siya lamang.
Dumapo ang mga mata ni Rainne sa labi ni Ysiquel. It was so close and so red. Napakagat labi si Rainne. They seem to be inviting her to do something about it.
Maybe it was brought upon by the alcohol? Or maybe she's just in a dream? Either way, there's one thing on her mind right now.
Walang kasagot-sagot ay binalot ni Rainne ang mga braso sa leeg ng binata at pinaglapat ang mga labi nila. Hindi niya alam saan siya humugot ng lakas ng loob para gawin iyon.
'Blame it on your kissable lips, Ysiquel. They called for me' Ayon na lang ang sinabi niya sa sarili.
Nagulat si Ysiquel sa ginawa ng dalaga at hindi siya nag-respond. It was so wrong in all forms.
"Ysiquel..." she mumbled.
"Lasing ka na. Ipahahatid na kita pauwi."
Akmang hihilahin na ni Ysiquel si Rainne but she caught him off guard again. She crashed her lips back into his lips.
But this time, nagsimulang makaramdam ng kakaibang init si Ysiquel nang maramdaman ang erotikong paghaplos ng mga kamay nito sa buhok niya at ang mala-propesyonal na paghalik nito. He responded deep into her. He was drunk to her kisses and he can't deny liking those lips against his.
Their tongues battled and their moans resonated in the hallway. Tinulak ni Ysiquel patungo sa may pader ang dalaga at marahang inipit para maiparamdam ang pag-init ng kanyang buong katawan. Rainne felt it and she was getting more excited by the second.
Bumaba ang kamay ni Ysiquel sa pang-upo ni Rainne at binuhat siya. Pinulupot ni Rainne ang mga binti sa baywang ni Ysiquel upang hindi mahulog. But that closeness made her feel everything from his stomach downwards.
They continued kissing and entered Ysiquel's hotel room. Ni hindi nga alam ni Rainne na nakatuloy na sila sa isang silid. Nag-awtomatikong lock ito at tuloy-tuloy lang si Ysiquel sa paglalakad at paghalik sa dalaga habang hinahaplos ang likod nito at pilit pinalalalim ang halik.
"Ysiquel..." she groaned, letting him devour her neck. He thought it was sexy how she called out his name.
"Fuck..."
"It's Rainne, Ysiquel. C-call me... Rainne," she chuckled under heavy breaths. Alam niyang hindi siya kilala ni Ysiquel pero siya, matagal na niya itong kilala at gusto.
"I want you. I want you now, Rainne." His voice was husky and deep. Animo'y hirap na hirap at malulunod.
He crashed his lips again into hers for another blissful and out-of-this-world kiss. Hinaplos nito ang balingkinitang katawan ng dalaga at tinanggal ang pagkakabutones ng uniporme. He scooped her breasts with both hands, and she moaned from the foreign pleasure. He wanted more of her and didn't hesitate to fondle her breasts.
Rainne was completely unaware of what was physically happening at that point. Ni hindi nito namalayang wala na siyang saplot dahil nakapapasong init na lamang ang bumabalot sa kanyang katawan. Nag-aapoy ang kanyang pakiramdam dahil sa mga haplos ni Ysiquel.
"M-more..." she begged as she arched her exposed body.
Panandaliang hinubad ni Ysiquel ang kanyang damit bago sumampa sa kama at hinaplos ang katawan ni Rainne pataas sa leeg nito hanggang sa makarating sa kanyang mapulang labi.
Napakagat-labi si Rainne sa nakikita at naglakas loob na hawakan ang katawan ni Ysiquel... at hindi siya pinigilan nito. It was her first time to feel a man up close like that and her touches were unknowingly making him lust for her more. Hinayaan lang siya ng binata at bumalik ang mga labing selyado sa isa't isa.
Batid ni Rainne na hindi tama ang ginagawa nila at dapat na silang tumigil. Nasa huwisyo pa rin siya pero binabalot talaga siya ng kakaibang init. It must have been the alcohol in her system controlling her lust.
But why does it seem so... right? Why did it feel so right that she didn't want to stop?
Rainne was stuck in her own wonderland until a force entered her folds, and she whimpered in pain.
"Ahh..." she cried.
"Shh... It's okay." Hinalikan ni Ysiquel ang lumuluhang mga mata ng dalaga at saka bumalik sa pag-ulos ng katawan.
He was in heaven right that instant, and there was no way he would stop. Having to touch and kiss a goddess' body, he was celebrating he was her first. And long has he forgotten about his celebration plans after securing the Claremont Group?
Alam niyang hindi tama ang ginagawa nila at dapat tumigil na siya kanina pa pero inunahan na siya ng pangangailangan niya bilang isang lalaki. It's been a crazy long time since he became aggressive on bed.
Unti-unti, nadagdagan ng sarap ang sakit na bumalot sa kanya. She wanted more. She needed more. And she decided to follow what her body dictated—him.
Sa gabing iyon, opisyal na nagsimula ang lahat para sa kanilang dalawa... Ang memorya ng unang gabing pinagsaluhan nila.
