"Here eat the soup that I brought you, I cooked it with love and effort. Kung ako ang asawa mo, I will not f*cking permit you to go out wearing just a robe, magkamatayan na basta huwag ka lang lumabas ng nakaganiyan. Swerte naman ni Lason—"

"Tyson, Erin. Tyson!" 

Ngumisi ito. "Lason gusto ko 'e, walang pakialaman sa gusto kong itawag sa asawa mo,"

Napahinga nalang siya ng malalim. "God help me, you're so makulit like Easter,"

"You're so conyo ngayon tuloy,"

Sinamaan niya ito ng tingin. "Sabi ko nga, kumain ka na baka sunduin ka pa ng asawa mo dito."

She just quitely eat the soup and it lessen her hangover, sobrang sarap din nito at mabango ang aroma kaya napapikit siya sa sarap sa bawat subo.

"Stop moaning, Mi Reina. You're making it hard for me to breath in a same place with you," hindi ito nakatingin sa kaniya at nakatanaw sa labas ng bintana. She can see his adam's apple moving up and down multiple times.

"Oh? You're turned on? How weak of you,"

Marahas itong napalingon sa kaniya. His face darken while staring at her face. "I'm not weak, will you stop putting that spoon in your mouth and put my friend in it instead?"

Nabilaukan siya sa sinabi nito. "See? Don't try me, I can break you even more than that,"

Nagising ang kaniyang pagkababae dahil sa magaspang nitong pananalita and tried to acted like she doesn't care about his dirty talk at all when her whole system is actually in chaos because of that. "T—Tumahik ka nga, huwag kang magulo. Kumakain ako,"

He smirks at hinawa ang buhok niyang humaharang sa mukha para makakain siya ng maayos. He was holding her hair while watching outside the window of his car. Napangisi siya sa ginagawa nito at namula dahil parang nasa p*rn videos lang ang ginagawa nito sa kaniya but the difference is she's eating the soup that has s chicken on it and not eating a hotdog of Erin.

"Iba pala ang epekto ng pagpunta ko, tumatawa ka ng mag-isa kahit walang kausap," nakangisi nitong saad.

"Will you shut up!" Inis niyang sabi habang sinasamaan ito ng tingin. T*ngina nakakahiya iyon sa parte niya. Erin just caught her laughing without a valid reason. F*ck that is embarrassing.

"Bakit nakayapak ka lang na pumunta dito?" Kunot-noong tanong nito at hinila ang kaniyang binti saka pinunasan ang talampakan na madumi. 

"H—Hoy, h—huwag mo nang punasan, nakakahiya!" Akmang aalisin niya ang mga binti na nakapatong sa kandungan nito when Erin gripped her ankles tighter to prevent her.

"Huwag matigas ang ulo, let me clean your feet. I have a spare slippers here,"

Her eyebrow raised when Erin put the fluffy slippers on her. "Gamit ng babae mo?" Mataray niyang tanong rito.

Erin look at her with a wide grin on his lips. "Hindi ah, ang mga babae ko hindi pa nakakasakay sa mga sasakyan ko and I don't care about them like how I care for you now."

Humalukipkip siya at hindi maiwasang makaramdam ng inis. "Talagang inamin mo pa talagang may mga babae ka ha?"

"Grabe, galit agad? I have reasons why I had lots of women before. Teka nagseselos ka ba? Huwag gano'n, gag*. Kinikilig ako." Nakanguso nitong sabi. "F*ck ugh!" Erin cupped his friend when she kicked it. Naiinis siya lalo rito dahil nagkaroon ito ng maraming babae. Sabagay sobrang gandang lalaki nito kaya talagang madami talagang babaeng magkakagusto rito and she hates that.

"Umalis ka na." Lumabas siya ng sasakyan at pumasok sa loob ng bahay. Nagtatakang nakatingin sa kaniya si Tyson na nasa living room parin habang nagkakape na.

"Why are you so mad? Did I do something wrong?" Her husband asked with a monotone voice but she just rolled her eyes at him and went to their room. Naligo siya ulit ng maayos at nagbihis dahil madami pa siyang dapat gawin, she's a fashion designer and she loves to draw dress and other type of clothes. Akala ng mga magulang niya that she's just Tyson's house wife but she's actually not. Nagt-trabaho siya dahil ayaw niyang umasa sa asawa. Hindi niya nga pinapakialaman ang pera nito kahit buwan buwan siyang inaabutan nito ng pera. Hinuhulog niya nalang iyon sa bank account ni Easter dahil lahat naman ng pera ni Tyson sa anak nila mapupunta.

"Honey! Why are you breaking up with me? Diba you love me? You told me you love me!"

"I don't love you and I didn't tell you that. I told you I just want a release, I never said that I will commit with you. Parausan lang kita, don't demand something more of that. You knew at the first place that I'm already a married man yet you still seduce me, you just want my money right? Here, get this and go away. We're done, I don't want to see you again. You're so boring and loud to be with,"

"What? How could you treat me this way? I love you, Tyson!"

"Well—the feeling isn't mutual just go out in our house. You b*tch or else I'll call the security of this subdivision and pull you out the house kung magmamatigas ka pa,"

Dumaan siya sa nagbabangayang dalawa na parang wala lang ang mga ito sa kaniya. The woman's eyes widen as she look at her. Dapat lang na magulat ito dahil sobrang ganda niya kasya rito pero niloko parin siya ni Tyson. Nakakainis sa parte niya dahil walamg taste ang asawa. 

Hinarap niya si Tyson na gulat ang mukha, hindi siguro nito inaakalang dadaan siya sa gitna nila. 

"S—Sweetie, I'm cutting ties with her. I didn't know why she went here—"

"Oh please, Tyson. If you're going to cheat on me again. Pwede bang mas maganda naman saakin? Look at her, she's so cheap. Ilang layers kaya ng make up ang nilagay niyan sa mukha para magmukhang tao, trying hard nga lang maging mukhang tao dahil ang kinalabasan nagmukhang clown,"

"You b*tch—"

"Enough, Sera. Let's go, we need to clear this things out." Hinila ni Tyson ang nagwawalang babae na masama parin na nakatingin sa kaniya hanggang sa tuluyan nang nakalabas ang dalawa sa bahay.

Hindi nalang sana ito nagdamit kung luluwa na ang malaking dibdib nito sa suot na crop top. Nakikitaan na ng kaluluwa pero nagsusuot parin ng mga damit na maiksi sa kaniya. Halata namang sinadya nito na magsuot ng mga daring clothes para makahakot ng attention at isa na doon ang asawa niya na nabiktima sa cheap nitong style.

"Kung ako 'yan, hindi kita gaganiyanin."

"What the—Erin? But ka pumasok? Ang hilig mo talagang ipahamak ang sarili mo no? Umalis ka na nga rito bago pa may makakita sa 'yo." Kinakabahan niyang tinutulak ito pero hindi natinag ang binata at pinalibot lang ang braso sa maliit niyang bewang.

"Relax, the maids won't tell any word. Takot lang nila mawalan ng dila. I already bribe them with my money and they will update me if your husband isn't around para naman makapunta ako dito and spend time with you, how sweet of me diba?" Tinaas-baba pa nito ang kilay habang may mapaglarong ngisi sa mga labi.

"Nababaliw ka na talaga!"

His face become serious. "It's your fault, you made me crazy over you. Your husband is such a fool for replacing you with someone that isn't worth it to be love," malalim ang mga tingin nito na nakakapanghina ng kaniyang mga tuhod. Kung hindi lang siya hawak nito sa bewang baka kanina pa siya sumalampak sa marmol na sahig dahil sa bigat at intinsidad ng titig nito sa kaniya.

"Relax yourself, Mi Reina. We're just starting, don't be so anxious. We're not in the exciting part yet. Pwede naman kasing hiwalayan mo nalang ang asawa mo kasi nagloko naman pala. You can just come with me and ofcourse we'll bring Easter,"

Napasinghap siya. "H—How did you know the name of my daughter? I only told you about me and my husband's name, nothing more, nothing less."

Ngumisi ito. "You don't know me too much, Mi Reina. You really don't know me. I can do everything in just a snap of my fingers and I'm really curious about your daughter, that's why asked one of the maids and she told me about your child. She looks like you huh?" Nakatingin ito sa family portrait na nasa ibabaw ng fireplace. Silang tatlo iyon, Tyson, her and their daughter, Easter. 

"Dapat ako ang nasa tabi niyo diyan, hindi si Lason." Madilim ang mukha nito. 

"Tyso—"Natahimik siya dahil sa biglang paglapit ng mukha nito sa kaniyang mukha. She wanted to move away but he's holding her to keep her on place. 

"I don't care about his name, I only care of you and your daughter. Why settle for less if you deserve a better man like me?" Nakatulala siyang nakatitig rito.
