The Love Contract

Sa edad sa 20 ay solo ng tinataguyod ni Aena ang nakababatang kapatid na lalaki na kasalukuyan pa lamang na nag aaral ng elementarya, bata pa lamang kasi sila ng pumanaw ang kanilang ama at hindi nagtagal ay nagkasakit naman ang kaniyang ina ng kanser at dahil wala silang sapat na pera upang ipagamot ito ay hindi nagtagal ay binawian rin ito ng buhay. Hindi rin siya nakapagtapos ng pag aaral dahil kinailangan niyang magtrabaho para sa kanilang magkapatid dahil wala silang aasahan kundi ang sarili niya, wala silang kamag anak sa lugar na iyon. Napadpad siya sa Maynila at doon nagkaroon ng trabaho bilang isang kasambahay, ngunit paanong ang pagiging kasambahay ang makakapagpabago sa kaniyang buhay. Paano kung sa hindi inaasahang pagkakataon ay mahulog siya sa lalaking may karelasyon ng iba? Handa ba siyang makiapid sa ngalan ng pag-ibig?

Serena’s POV Matagal kong inakalang hawak lang ako ng kontrata—isang papel na pumirmi sa buhay ko, sa katawan ko, at sa kalayaan ko. Pero ngayong nakahiga ako sa tabi ni Damien, natatakpan ng init ng balat niya ang lahat ng sugat sa puso ko, alam kong mali ako. Hindi na kontrata ang nagbubuklod sa amin. Hindi na utang. Hindi na desperasyon. Ako mismo ang pumili sa kanya. Dahan-dahan niyang hinila ang kumot pababa, inilantad ang bawat bahagi ng katawan kong kanina pa nanginginig, hindi dahil sa takot kundi dahil sa pananabik. Mainit ang hininga niya sa leeg ko, at ang bawat halik na inilapat niya ay parang panata na hindi na niya ako bibitawan. “Wala nang papel na nagdidikta sa’yo, Serena,” bulong niya habang pinapadaanan ng labi ang balikat ko. “Ako na ang pipiliin mo. Ako na ang kailangan mo.” Napapikit ako, hinayaan ang katawan kong lunurin ng bawat haplos niya. Hindi na ito transaksyon. Hindi na ito kasunduan. Ito ay kagustuhan naming pareho. Nagtagpo ang mga labi namin, mas mariin, mas buo—parang wala nang bukas. Ang bawat paghinga niya ay naging akin, ang bawat ungol ko ay naging kanya. Hanggang sa wala nang natira kundi ang mga katawan naming nag-uusap, nagsasanib, nagtatakda ng bagong simula. At sa gitna ng dilim ng kwarto, habang pareho kaming nilalamon ng init at ng pagmamahal, alam kong wala nang atrasan. Ako si Serena Villareal. Hindi na bilang alipin ng kontrata, kundi bilang babaeng kusang nagpa-angkin, kusang nagmahal, at kusang nagpasakop—sa lalaking siya ring nagpalaya sa akin.

It was a beneficial relationship for the both of us. A loveless and contractual realtionship. But, why did I let myself to have this feeling? Since when did I have this feeling? Is it possible for my love to be returned? Is it possible for me to stay with you? I want to be with you even if it means betraying everyone, If I can stay with you by leaving everything behind... I'm willing to do it without any hesitation. If loving you means danger, then I would gladly offer my life just to be with you!
