Whims of a Vixen

XAVIER

My forehead creased when the operator said that  the other line is unattended. I've been trying to reach her countless of times but she's not answering. When I called our house number, Nana Dencia said that my wife already left with Jemma and Kuya Pido.

Kanina pa iyon. Hindi ako mapakali. The drive on the way to their house takes roughly thirty minutes.

I sighed and swifly combed my hair with my hands. Maybe she just got shy because she said she loves me earlier. Or maybe she's just making me miss her more.

Tinitigan ko ang wallpaper ko. It's a picture of us. My worry got casted away in an instant. It was me kissing her forehead while she cutely frowns at the camera.

She was beautiful. There's something about her that makes my insides flutter everytime. I thought she was just going to be another phase in my life- the one that eventually fades in the picture- but I was wrong.

Hindi ko alam kung kailan ko natanggap sa sarili ko. Basta isang araw, naramdaman ko na lang na nagwawala ang dibdib ko sa tuwing kasama ko siya.

The first time I saw her was the time she's dancing on the pole at her cousin's bar. She was grinding her hips very sensually and I just couldn't take my eyes off her. I could feel my heart beating loudly in rythm with the music. I knew right there and then that I am fucking doomed. I am completely floored the first time I saw her.

Mula nang gabing iyon ay natagpuan ko na lamang ang sarili kong pabalik-balik sa kung saan ko siya unang nasilayan. Hindi naman ako nabigong hanapin siya dahil lagi siyang naroon. Inoobserbahan ko lang pero hindi ko magawang kausapin o lapitan.

"She's off limits, Montoya. That's my cousin." Binatukan ako ni Harris kaya natapon ang alak na laman ng baso ko.

"Mukhang hindi naman. I always see her flirting with random men-"

"For free drinks! I invite her here everyday para mas malaki ang kitain ko." Humalakhak ang loko.

My eyes wandered again to find her. I mentally shook my head when I saw her laughing with a man. Off limits my ass.

She looks like a fucking concubine. And I think she'd go perfectly with a king like me. Her lips were seductively curved and her face looked so sultry. I want to get near her and snatch her from that guy but I didn't dare because I remembered what Harris said. She's not worth any effort. Baka abutin pa ng buwan bago ko siya maikama.

She clearly isn't my type. I always go for tall babes with banging bodies, preferably models. At si Bridge, malayo siya sa mga tipo ko. She's like a delicate flower that would break in half if I dare to touch her. Even with the rebelling vibe she gives off, she still looks innocent with her majestically beautiful cat eyes.

"Ano 'to?" Lumabas siya ng kuwarto ko hawak ang fleshlight. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. Sa pagkakaalam ko, itinago ko iyon sa dulo ng closet.

"Where the heck did you get that?!"

She giggled. "Grabe! Ito ba alternative mo kapag wala ako? Grabe, ha!"

I hardly hold my laughter whenever I am with her. She's unfiltered and that was a refreshment for me. She's got wits. She is patient with me. She is crazy and I love it.

"Ako na naghanda ng luggage mo habang naliligo ka. Kumain ka na, nakaluto na ako ng breakfast. Matagal-tagal tayong 'di magkikita kaya dito ako matutulog mamaya." She said while washing something on the sink.

"I didn't call you here."

"So? Gusto ko lang naman magpunta." Inirapan niya ako ng pagkatindi-tindi.
