Ren's Pleasure

Chapter Three

Ren.

            "Girl!"

            "Y-Yes?" I looked at Lizzy with shocked eyes.

            "Okay ka lang ba? Kanina ka pa tulala."

            I don't know if I'm okay. I am looking forward for tonight. I am excited. Pero paano kung ibang tao iyon at kaboses lang niya? Malaki ang chance na posibleng iba iyon.

            "I-I'm fine. Nag-iisip lang ako ng new concept ng ipe-paint ko."

            "Wow, engrossed ka talaga sa pagpa-painting ah."

            Hay. Lizzy. Kung alam mo lang.

            Sana naitanong ko man lang ang pangalan niya. Hindi na sana ako nanghuhula-hula pa ngayon. It's already 1 PM. And really, I can't wait for 8 PM. But I need to focus on my work first. Or else, baka sesantihin ako.

***

            It's thirty minutes before 8PM and I still can't decide which pair of undies should I wear. Should I wear something sexy? Something sultry? Or something girly? Hindi ko alam kung ano ang susuotin. It was like I am on a date and can't decide which dress I should wear.

            I am no classy girl. Simpleng babae lang ako na may pangarap sa buhay – ang yumaman at maiahon ang pamilya ko sa hirap. But with this, I can earn money plus I can enjoy myself.

            I stick on wearing my lacy pink bra and thong undies. I feel a hundred times sexier than my usual self, hoping that the guy would be Clyde.

            Pero malabo. How come would he call if he didn't need to call anyone because he already has a girlfriend? By the looks of it, sobrang sweet nila sa coffee shop and it makes my co-employees get jealous and wishing they could meet a man as sweet as him.

            As that realization strikes, I lose hope. I covered myself with a silk robe and wait for my client of the day while I watch a TV show.

            I was shocked after hearing my phone rang. I looked at the time and it's already 8 PM. Huminga muna ako ng malalim bago sagutin ng tawag. "H-Hello."

            "Hi. I'm in front of your door now."

            "O-Okay. I'll be there." I hurriedly went to the door. "Good luck for tonight, Ren." I cheered myself up before opening the door.

            I met the eyes of a man wearing eyeglasses, ruggedly handsome with his quite messy hair, a gray t-shirt, and jeans. He smiled. "Hi."

            I opened my mouth. I think I'm going to faint.

           "H-Hi. C-Come in..." I opened my door wide to let him in. I can't believe it! It was Clyde. It was really him!

           I smelled his perfume as he stepped inside my apartment and look at me as I lock the door. He smiled.

            "Y-You can sit down. Water? Juice?"

            "Any would do," Clyde's eyes are roaming around my place.

            I hurriedly went to the kitchen and get a glass of juice. With shaking hands, I gave him the glass. "H-Here."

            My God. I still can believe it. Clyde, the man who makes me shiver at the middle of the day just by looking at him is at my place. Currently enjoying the interior of my apartment.
