I remained silent as Lucas drove his car to Steve's place. May pa-pool party raw ang kolokoy na 'yon kaya pala hindi siya umattend sa prom.
"Hanggang anong oras ka pinayagan ng magulang mo sa labas?" I looked at Lucas when he asked me that. Mom knows about Montalban University's program, and she allowed me till eleven p.m but my Dad... Well, he doesn't care.
"Eleven," I answered. "Are there girls the same age as mine in that place?" I asked him this time, I was curious. What if hindi naman pala ako pwede roon? O kaya naman wala naman akong kilala roon? Edi na out of place lang ako!
"Are you afraid now?" balik tanong niya naman habang nakatutok ang mga mata sa daan. I was about to answer him but he adds more that made me blush. "I'm with you, you're not going to be out of
Hanggang ngayon ay Hindi ko pa rin alam kung matatawa ba ako o maiinis sa pagkaing dinala sa akin ni Lilac sa opisina. To the point na nag effort pa siya roon, nag-aksaya lang siya ng oras! Those hotdogs that she cooked were sweet! Too sweet na kulang na lang ay mamaga ang ngipin ko! While the egg was salty, isang kilong asin yata ang nilagay niya! Ganoon pa man ay kinain ko pa rin, bawal kasing magtapon ng grasya, kaya kahit katapon-tapon 'yon ay pinagtiyagaan ko pa rin. I take off my tuxedo and lay on the couch to gather some rest. Napakaraming trabaho ang inasikaso ko sa kumpanya, it was tiring. Habang lumalaki kasi ang Moris Hotel and Restaurant dumarami rin ang tumatangkilik dito. Lumalaki ang kumpanya, dumarami ang empleyedo. But what made me felt tired more? Was the fact that I was thinking about Lilac the whole day, fuck! And speaking of th
"Lucas open the door!" I shout, stamping my feet in annoyance. "Open it, Lucas! Let's talk, we need to talk... Lucas!" Pakiramdam ko'y mapapatid na ang litid ko sa leeg kasisigaw mula sa labas ng pinto ng kwarto ni Lucas. I was just asking him if he's willing to help me now. Aminado akong wala talaga akong gaanong source at investors na kilala upang mag invest sa kumpanya namin. That is why I need Lucas's help. But my heartless handsome husband just walked out on me, the hell!"Luc-""Ano ba?! Ang ingay ingay mo, hindi ako makapag-asikaso ng maayos ng dahil sa kasisigaw mo. I told you I'm tired right?! For goodness sake Lyka, let me rest for a while pwede?!"Daig ko pa ang pinutulan ng dila at natameme na lang talaga. Mula noon hanggang ngayon h
"Dad no!" I shout in frustration. "Hindi pa ako pwedeng magpakasal, I was just seventeen!" Pagpipilit ko.Dad just grab my hand and forced me to go inside the car. My mother was just quiet. Ni hindi ko man lang siya narinig na nagsalita at pigilan si Daddy sa gusto nitong mangyari. Mas lalong titindi ang galit sa akin ni Lucas pagnagkataong matuloy ang pesteng kasal na sinasabi nila."Mom, I didn't do anything! Naniniwala ka sa akin diba? Wala akong ginawang masama. Hindi ko rin alam kung pa-""Enough Lyka! Shut up will you?!" Nasapo niya ang noo niya bago umiiling na tumingin sa akin. "That's what you got for not thinking about our family's reputation!" galit niya pang sabi.Nanahimik na lang ako sa tabi niya habang impit na lumuluha. Wala na rin naman akong magagawa. They don't want to conside
I feel shy when I am almost naked. The only clothes left on my body were my underwears. I breathe in and out then walk in front of Lucas. I look at his eyes and was about to remove my bra when suddenly he hold my waist and pulled me in between his legs. "You look afraid... Tell me, am I scary?" he asked, gently caressing my waist. "I-i... I felt n-nervous," I answered honestly. He smirks and made me sit on his lap. "Then I'll do it for you, let me take it off... I'm tired of this bullshit Lyka, for once let's act like a husband and wife who loves each other." I got shocked and was about to stand up but he suppressed me by encircling his arms around me. He kissed my lips while removing my bra. My knees were shaking and can't move, I feel like I'm going to faint any moment.
"Bro that's enough! Langya lasing ka na, ihahatid na kita!" I raised my right hand to Steve and wave it, saying no! I can still drink! This is called celebration, I'm a newlywed for fuck sake!"May problema ka ba? You're wasted, man!" giit niya pa, halatang napipikon na. "Why would I feel problematic?" I asked him. Lumapit ako sa kaniya ng bahagya bago bumulong. "I'll tell you a secret, I'm a married man now! Hear that?! I'm fucking married!" I shout, not minding those customers who looking at us with full of curiosity in their eyes.I was about to stand up but I felt dizzy. Kaagad din akong napaupo at yuyuko na lang sana sa mesa upang magpahinga. But Steve grab my arm and force me to stand up."Halika na, iuuwi na kita! Fuck! Daig pa natin ang mag shota dito nakakahiya! Napakagwapo ko at macho para maging
When the door closed and Lilac's out, I let myself fall on my bed. Arms on my forehead, staring at the white ceiling and thinking about the past. Just how the fuck did I fall in love with Lilac? With that crazy little witch, blue-eyed brat named Lilac... Oh lemme rephrase it, Lyka nga pala! She'll get angry if someone call's her by her first name. Except me of course, I can call her Lilac or Lyka siya pa rin naman 'yon! Sadyang may sayad lang siya at naiirita kapag tinawag siyang Lilac, kahit ako'y hindi ko alam kung bakit. Maybe because her Father was named Red, her brother was Azul and she's Lilac. Kaunting kulay na lang ang kailangan, papasa na silang 'rainbow family'.I smiled because of that silly thought. But thinking about what just had happened a while ago made me think about our past. Until now, I felt guilty about what have I done to her seven years ago. Siguro'y hanggang ngayon dala niya pa rin ang takot na iyon at ang g
"Lucas bro! Sikat na sikat ka ah!"Gustong gusto ko ng sapakin ang pagmumukha ng tukmol na Steve na ito dahil sa napakagandang bungad niya sa akin! Sukat ba namang natutuwa pa dahil kaming dalawa lang naman ni Lilac ang headline dito sa Montalban!"Balita ko, paglilinisin ng cafeteria misis mo dahil sa issue... Kawawa naman, 'di mo ba kinausap si tita tungkol doon? Kayong may-ari nitong school ah!" pag-iimporma niya pa.Ano namang magagawa ko tungkol sa punishment ni Lilac? Kitang si Mama nga ang may gusto no'n."Buti nga siya cafeteria lang, eh ako kubeta!" galit na sambit ko naman. My mother was kind and understanding yes, but she never tolerates those wrongdoings. Kaya nga pati ako na anak niya ay may parusa rin kahit na wala n
"Lucas!"I stopped as I hear someone calling for my name. But when I turn around, I saw Vina smiling from ear to ear."What?" I sighed, not in the mood to talk to her."Your face was all over the social media." She vowed her head as if she was hurt. "So ahm... Is that true? M-may nangyari ba sa inyo ni Lilac?" kuryosong tanong niya habang mariin na nakatitig sa akin."I have the right to remain silent," I answer then leave her without any explanation.Wala naman akong dapat na ipaliwanag at sabihin sa kaniya, after all, hindi ko naman siya girlfriend.As I enter the cafeteria, I saw Steve eating with his current girlfriend. Umupo na lang din ako sa katab
