DIRTY SECRET

CHAPTER 29

Hindi ko mapigilan ang masamid dahil sa kinakain ko nang marinig ko ang sinabi ni Elli. Pinanlakihan ko siya ng mata. What is this?!

"Gusto mo ng pakasalan ang anak ko?" i heard daddy asked

"Opo. Payagan niyo po sana kameng makasal. Mahal na mahal ko po si Carol. Kahit po palagi niya kong iniiwan."

Napatitig lang ako sa kanya. Does he really mean that? Does he really love me? Nakakaiyak naman..

"B-baka naman nabibigla ka lang hijo." mommy said

"Sigurado po ako sa desisyon ko." he replied

Pati sina ate at kuya ay nakatitig lang samen.

"Well, that's great. Sa tingin ko naman ay panahon na para magsettle si Carol e. Hindi na ako tututol sa kasal niyo." my father replied

"P-pero honey--"

"Sa tingin ko naman ay mabuting bata itong si Elli at hindi niya sasaktan si Carol. You're dead if you hurt my daughter." paninigurado ni Daddy sa kanya

"Hindi ko po siya sasaktan." he said

"Mabuti kung ganun hijo, kung ganun ipapaubaya ko na sayo ang anak ko."

Nagngitian lang sila at nagpatuloy sa pagkain. Ako naman ay parang tuod na hindi na nakasubo.

"Here sweetie. Eat this." sinubuan ako ni Elli ng dla namin na fettucine. Nahihiya man ay tinaggap ko na iyon. Anu bang tumatakbo sa isip niya at sinabi niya yun?

Natapos ang pagkain at tinulungan ko si Mommy na magligpit. Gusto niya sana akong kausapin pero hindi na ko nagsalita pa at dumiretso na lang sa kwarto ko dati. It felt so lonely when I was here, ang kwartong ito ang naging saksi ng lahat ng luha ko.

Maya maya ay naramdaman kong bumukas ang pinto. Pumasok si Elli.

"Are you okay?" he asked

"I should be the one asking that." i replied and he chuckled. Niyakap niya ko mula sa likuran.

"What the hell are you doing Elli?" tanong ko sa nahihirapan na tinig

"Niyayakap ka, hindi ba obvious?" he plainly said

"Hindi ba kayo nag-usap ng mommy mo?"

"Nag-usap."

"Anong pinagusapan niyo?"

"Everything." kumawala ako sa kanyang yakap kahit na gustong gusto ko pang maramdaman an kanyang init

"Elli, diretsahin mo na nga ako." i said

"She told me everything about you. Everything about your family, about what happen and the mystery behind my father's death."

Nanatili akong nakatitig sa kanya. Natatakot ako. Sa totoo lang, takot na takot ako. Natatakot akong mawala sya sa paningin ko kapag narinig ko ang mga sasanihin niya. However, i expect this to happen but not this so soon.

"I wanted to tell you this, whoever you are, it may be Carol or Maca, i wont let go of this hand." he said as he entwinged our fingers "..I grew up forcing happiness to my life at hanggang ngayon, ganun pa rin ako. I know, i am forcing myself to enter in your life when in fact, i dont even have a chance to stand for it. But this time, just for this time, I wanted to be brave and take you with me. Sapat na sigurong maging kabayaran ang pagkawala ni Daddy para maging maligaya ako."

"Elli--"

"I know, i am too selfish. Mom gave me almost everything since my dad died. Me and my brother grew up without any father but our mom," umiling siya at saka nagpatuloy sa pagsasalita "..hindi siya nagkulang ng pagmamahal. I saw how strong she is and I admire her so much. Kaya naman lahat ng sabihin niya ay ginawa namin magkapatid until I met you. Gusto kong akin ka lang, gusto kong makuha ka sa sarili kong paraan. Gusto kong mapatunayan sa sarili ko that im capable of loving you. Nasanay akong binibigay ni mommy ang lahat but when she told me to avoid you, i just cant. Hindi ko kayang iwasan ka. Hindi ko kayang hindi ka mahalin."

"But my father killed your dad--"

"I know. I know that. But for pete's sake, that's our parents issue. Kung yun ang dahilan bakit mo ko nilalayuan, wag mo ng tangkain dahil wala akong balak bitiwan ka." naiyak ako sa sinabi niya kaya hindi na rin ako nakapagsalita. "Dont get me wrong, hindi ako naghahabol pero kung ikaw ang hahabulin ko, I am willing to run after you. I am willing to chase you in anyway you want, hanggang sa maisipan mong wag ng tumakbo at manatili na lang saken. Pero sana dalian mo lang mainlove dahil nakakapagod ang isipan ka gabi gabi, araw araw, oras oras, minu minuto. I cant help falling in love with you Maca. How could I ever forget someone who gave me a blowjob on a car and that happen on our very first day." he said while grinning

Nahampas ko tuloy siya sa dibdib.

"Never kong ginawa yun noh!"

"Oh! You dont remember? Hindi ko nga alam bakit bigla ka na lang naging hyper e hindi naman tayo uminom." nagtatakang tanong niya and that trigger me to tell him the truth

"Actually, i was drug. Akala ko gamot ko yung napulot ko sa may bathroom nun. Yun pala sex drugs. Nagtataka nga ako, paanong nagkaron ng ganun dun. Grabe lang talaga."

"Drug? You were drugs. Kailangan kong magpasalamat sa naglagay nun dun. Dahil sa kanya, nagawa mo ang bagay na hindi ko inaasahan." he grinned at me and I know what he mean by those wicked smile.

"Elli..."

"Mmm?" he hum as he nuzzled my neck

"A-ayaw saken ng mama mo."

"Pag nalaman ng daddy mo, magugustuhan niya kaya ako?" he asked instead

"I dont think so. We remind them so much in the past." i honestly replied

"Edi kung ganun, wag na natin hintayin ang blessing nila. Magpakasal na tayo tapos magpakalayo layo." he said while planting kisses on my collar bone. God! It send me so much thrill!

"Can you leave your mother behind?" i asked

"Are you willing to leave with me?" he asked instead and i felt his hand caressing my tummy and slowly going down.

"W-we dont know what would happen next. Hindi natin hawak ang kapalaran." i replied then I felt his hand teasing what's in between my thigh.

"My mentor once told me that life is a game and you have to play well. Lets just enjoy the moment." he kissed me on my temple and I could feel the warm breeze from the window touching my skin.

"E-elli.." i said hoarsely

"You make it sound like you're begging. Geez.. im turn on, carol!"

"I-its your fault! You're k-kissing me on my n-nape and your hand t-touches everywhere." mahina kong sabi

"That's because, whenever you're near, I cant help myself having a boner" he took a deep breath and kiss me. Damn those lips! Its very good on kissing! It taste so sweet!

"B-baka marinig tayo sa labas Elli." i said when he broke the kiss

"Yeah I know. Matulog na tayo. Promise. Yayakap lang ako." he replied and gently push me to the bed while nuzzling my neck.

"K-kala ko ba matutulog na tayo."

"I cant help it, itong bestfriend mo, nasanay na tumitigas pag kasama ka." he murmured against my ear

"Elli!" mahina ko siyang tinapik sa braso at agad naman siyang umayos ng higa ngunit nakayakap pa rin siya sa bewang ko

"Bukas umuwi ka na sa condo mo. Doon tayo magtutuos." he said and gave me a very quick kiss before he close his eyes.
