Lahat ng Kabanata ng SALVATORE SALCEDO (The Black Sparrow Society): Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Their kisses were full of passion. Walang gustong bumitaw. The television helped them mask their moans. He couldn't get enough of her. When his lips left hers, Tor trailed kisses to her jaw down to her neck at nang hindi makatiis ay binuhat si Iris at isinubsob ang mukha sa dibdib nito. He sat down at the edge of the bed while she straddled him. She combed his hair with her fingers while her other hand clutched at his shirt. Tor was losing patience with her pajama top and one button came off. Iris didn't care about it. Bahagya pa itong lumiyad kaya sinuportahan niya ang likod. Iris touched the material of his shirt and her fingers curled. Tor planted a kiss on her collarbone while his hand grabbed her butt. Bahagyang umangat ang katawan ni Iris at napaawang ang mga labi pero nanatiling nakapikit ang mga mata. Tumayo si Iris at sinimulang tanggalin ang natitirang butones. "Open your eyes," bulong niya kay Iris pero umiling ito. Bahagya s'yang napangiti. He kissed her flat stomach

Hindi nagpapigil si Teo sa kagustuhan nitong ihatid s’ya sa coffee shop. On the way ay panay ang kwento nito kung saan sila pupunta sa kanilang honeymoon. They will stay in Manila for a night at mula roon ay tutungo sila sa airport para magpunta sa Maldives. Isang linggo sila roon at susulitin daw ni Teo ang maraming taon ng pananabik sa kaniya. “Aren’t you excited?” Ipinatong ni Teo ang kamay sa kaniyang hita. Bahagya niyang iniwas ang hita pero hindi natinag si Teo at pinisil pa ang hita niya. She got mad and slapped her hand. “Iris! What the fuck is wrong with you?!” Kumunot ang noo nito at nagtaas ng boses. Iginilid ni Teo ang sasakyan. Usually, someone would drive for him. Pero ngayon ay sila lang sa loob ng sasakyan at nakasunod ang bodyguards nito sa kanila sakay sa isa pang SUV.“Magmaneho ka lang at huwag kung ano-ano ang ginagawa mo.”“So you care for me?” He looked surprised and smiled at her. “Teo, can we just—“ Tinanggal ni Teo ang sariling seatbelt at hinalikan s’ya

Despite refusing the glam team, his father insisted. Pagod na s'yang makipagtalo kaya umayon na lang s'ya sa gusto nito. There's no escaping her fate now. Magiging asawa na s'ya ni Teo at hindi na s'ya umaasa na magiging maligaya pa s'ya balang araw. Hindi niya alam kung alin ba ang mas masakit? Ang pambababae ni Teo noon o ang kaalaman na ginamit s'ya ni Salvo para maghiganti sa kaniyang ama. She should not believe what Rosanna said to her. But it got too her and she can't dismiss it. Kapag naaalala niya ay kumukuyom ang kamao niya sa galit. What's wrong with people? They all existed in her life to use her. "Ma'am, okay lang po ba kayo? Ang tagal n'yo pong hindi kumukurap." She didn't realize that until she her eyes felt dry. She just nodded and blinked a couple of times. Habang ina-applyan s'ya ng make up ay may isang nag-aayos ng buhok niya. Balak sanang itaas ng mga ito ang buhok niya pero umayaw s'ya. Gusto lang niya itong ilugay at ayaw niya ng kahit anong hairspray. Beach wav

They arrived at Saunigan Island and the choppers left immediately after dropping them off. Iris didn't speak a word and barely look at him. Somehow, he knew she wouldn't be rude to his friends kaya nang iwan niya ito bitbit ang gamit nila ay hindi s'ya nagdalawang isip. Georgina and P are pregnant kaya mabagal talaga ang lakad ng mga ito. It was Reina who kept the pace with Iris. Umupo ang apat na babae sa patio at kaagad itong dinalhan ni Manang ng malamig na inumin. Tamang tama ito para sa mainit na panahon. He was up in the balcony when the guys joined him. Ale handed him a cold beer. "Mukhang nagkakasundo naman ang mga babae. Iris is smiling, look." Itinuro ito ni Lucian. "She's mad at me because Rosanna told her I was just playing her." Uminom s'ya ng beer at ibinalik ang tingin kay Iris. "And she believed her?" tanong ni Lucian. "I think so. Otherwise, why would she get mad?""Did she at least ask you to confirm?" Tumango s'ya. "And what did you say?" Isang kibit balikat a

She can’t believe Salvo would do that to her. Nang marinig niya ang mga yabag nito palayo ay saka lang s’ya nagmulat. He was no longer in the room at that point. Nakahinga s’ya ng maluwag. Dali-dali niyang ini-lock ang pinto, at kumuha ng bihisan bago nagpunta sa banyo para maligo.She dried her hair with a towel at isang simpleng cotton dress ang isinuot niya. The girls are asking her to play watch a movie and hangout. Kung hindi pa uminit ang araw kanina ay hindi sila aahon. Hindi na siya magtataka kung bukas ay sunog na ang balat niya. The whole place is incredible.Aaminin niya, masarap kasama sina Reina at ang tangkang pag-iwas ay hindi niya magawa. Mababait ang mga ito at masayahin. When she joined them at the entertainment room, ang tatlong babae lang ang naroon. Naupo s’ya sa isang bean bag. “Iris is here! Ate, bilisan mo na. Naiihi na rin ako.” P knocked on the bathroom door. Georgina answered with a muffled voice.“Upo ka na. I have popcorn and fruits. Kailangan pa rin ng
