When Womanhater meets Manhater (Completed)

CHAPTER 4

CHAPTER 4

Vince woke up with a smile on his face. He remembered the beautiful woman he had been with last night. She was the first woman he had ever been with, and he was sure of that. He couldn't help but smile at the thought. She looked like an angel sleeping next to him, and he couldn't resist removing the strands of hair that were covering her beautiful face. In the short time that he spent with her during his vacation at his new resort, she made him happy without him even realizing it. Maybe it was the right time for him to love again. From the moment he saw her by the rocks, he already loved her. But he was afraid of getting hurt again. This time, he was ready to take the risk of getting hurt and being happy with her. He kissed her forehead before getting up from the bed to take a shower.

Nagmulat ng mga mata si Mecey kanina pa siya gising at nasisiyahan siya sa paraan ng pagtitig nito sa mukha nya at paghalik sa noo nya. Isa iyon sa pangarap niya kapag nagkaboyfriend sya kahit pa sabihing manhater siya pangarap niya rin ang tratuhing isang babae. Unfortunately, hindi niya boyfriend ang binata at nasasaktan siya sa isiping babalik na sila sa realidad. Isang araw nalang siya dito sa resort at babalik na siya sa Maynila. Hindi parin nagsisink-in sa utak niya na ipinagkaloob niya sa binata ang pagkababae niya na iningatan niya ng maraming taon. Ni sa hinagap hindi nya inisip na dito sya mavivirginized at sa womanhater pa. Alam nyang hindi siya mahal ni Vince dahil ayaw na nitong magmahal ng babae. Nasasaktan siya sa isiping hindi siya kailanman mamahalin ng lalaking umangkin sa kanya kagabi. Napakalayo ng agwat nila sa buhay. Mahirap lang siya samantalang ito mayaman at galit sa mga babaeng katulad nya. Kaya paano sya mamahalin nito? Hindi niya alam na may luhang pumatak sa mga mata nya. Bumangon siya at nakita niya ang ebidensya sa bedsheet. Napangiti sya ng mapait.

'Kung mahal lang ako ng lalaking pinagkatiwalaan ko kagabi di sana'y ako na ang napakasayang babae sa buong mundo. Kahit ilang araw palang tayong nagkakilala Vince nagkaroon kana ng pitak sa pihikan kong puso. Pero hindi ako umaasa na mamahalin mo rin ako. Masaya na ako na ikaw ang unang lalaki sa buhay ko' sabi ng isip niya.

Dinampot nya ang mga damit sa sahig na siyang pagbukas ng pintuan ng banyo. Napatulala siya sa nakitang kahubdan ni Vince kaya napatakip siya ng mata. Hindi niya napansin na wala pa siyang saplot sa katawan kaya nag-init na naman si Vince.

"Waaaah! Magbihis ka nga! Hindi purke may nangyari na sa atin basta ka nalang maglalakad sa harapan ko na parang si Adan!" napahagalpak ng tawa si Vince at hindi pinansin ang sinabi ng dalaga. Niyakap niya ito at nagdikit ang hubad nilang katawan.

"You know what? Ang cute mo kapag namumula....Hey Baby! Look at me! Hindi ka ba nagagwapuhan sa akin?" Natatawang inaalis ni Vince ang mga damit sa kamay ni Mecey. Mas lalo itong natawa nang makita kung gaano kapula ang mukha nito.

"HAHAHAHA!"

"STOP LAUGHING! WILL YOU?"

"Why? I'm just happy seeing your face as red as a tomato. Hahahaha! Opz! Nag-alert on ang buddy ko." Nanlaki ang mga mata niya nang hindi sinasadyang mapatingin sa baba ng katawan ng binata.

"VINCE!!" Siniil sya nito ng halik sa labi at muling pinagsaluhan ang kakaibang kaligayahan na ngayon lang niya naramdaman.

Alas tres na ng hapon ng matapos ang pagniniig nila. She slowly removed the brassiere that was hanging on her stomach. When the young man did not wake up, she took her clothes and quickly put them on. As long as she could control her emotions and turn away from her love, she would leave the resort if that was the right thing to do. She would not be able to handle it if he left her and gave her a check so she would stop pursuing him. Knowing him, there was a deep reason why he avoided women. The few moments they shared together were enough. She would bring it back to Manila. She took her suitcase and carefully closed the door. She saw her Bez in front of the door with a meaningful smile, but it was short-lived when she saw the suitcase she was carrying.

"Are you leaving? Akala ko ba sabay tayong uuwi ng Maynila?" Hindi maiwasang tanong ng Bez nya. Hinila nya ito sa bench at pinaupo.

"I'm sorry Bez, but I have to go. I have to let him go, you know what I mean. You're not a saint to think that nothing happened between us all night and day locked up in the room." Her voice trembled, and she bit her lower lip.

"I understand, but there is one thing I need to make sure of... Do you love him?" She looked into her friend's eyes with a hint of concern. She wouldn't hold back; her Bez knew her too well, and they never kept secrets from each other.

"Y-yes, but I'm leaving not because I don't love him, but because I can't bear him turning away from me and showing me that he will never love me. We both know he's a woman-hater, and it's highly unlikely that he will pursue me. It was just the alcohol that made something happen between us last night." She sobbed and tried to hold back her emotions. Her friend hugged her tightly, and the pain she felt somewhat eased. Kinuha nya ang maleta, ipinahatid sya ng isang driver ni Bea sa station ng Bus. Ayaw nya rin kasi magpahatid pa papuntang maynila.

"Mag-iingat ka sa pag-uwi. Gusto sana kitang samahang umuwi kaso nakapangako na ako sa event organizer na----" maluha-luhang sambit nito sa kanya.

Niyakap niya ito saka sila nag-iyakan.

"Okay lang Bez, mas kailangan ka nila doon. Magkikita pa naman tayo sa Manila diba?" Tumango nalang ito at ngumiti sa kanya.

"Oo na. Sige na. Baka maiwan ka pa ng bus." Niyakap siya ulit nito ng mahigpit at pinahid ang luhang lumandas sa pisngi nito.

"Tumahan na nga tayo. Kung makangawa ka Bez parang hindi na ulit tayo magkikita a." Nagtawanan nalang silang dalawa. Kinuha na niya at maleta saka sumakay ng bus

'Paalam Vince, paalam mahal ko' sigaw ng isip nya. Hilam ang luha ng sumakay siya sa bus at sa kahuli-hulihang pagkakataon sinulyapan niya ang islang napakaliit nalang sa paningin niya.
