CHAPTER SEVEN

THEY checked-in at the hotel near the shooting range in Bulacan. It was a good decision though. Because they wanted to practice early. Kung sa Alabang pa manggagaling, maraming oras ang masasayang dahil sa byahe.

They ate late dinner on the road. Para pagdating sa hotel, maliligo nalang at magpapahinga.

Valeska didn't think that they would have sex that night because he's probably tired from work then he travelled to Pampanga just to pick her. He doesn't want her to ride on a bus or van. She can imagine the disagreement on his face when she told him that she's going to use public transportation going to Manila.

Sakto naman na habang hindi sila magkasama ni Rashid, dinatnan siya sa buwan na 'yon. That night is also the right time to take her first pill.

Valeska is done taking a shower and with her night routine. Nasa harap niya ng salamin at pinagmamasdan ang sarili habang nakasuot ng puting roba.

People always admired her physical appearance. Parang wala naman siyang nakasalamuha na napangitan sa kanya. Lahat nang lumalabas sa bibig ng mga nakakita o nakaharap niya, ay pawang magaganda.

Ang mga papuri sa pisikal niyang anyo ang isa sa nagtutulak sa kanya na huwag niyang sayangin ang buhay niya kahit pa mahirap 'yon.

She has a fierce beauty; bold and stunning. Her foxy-eyes were her best asset that she always received compliments how expressive and mesmerising they were. Her perfectly proportioned lips were natural. One thing she doesn't like having it is people used to judge or think that she did some filler, but she didn't. She never had surgery in any part of her face and body. She's all natural.

Maaaring perpekto siya sa paningin ng iba o kaya'y pinapangarap ng kababaihan ang klase ng ganda na mayroon siya, pero lingid sa kaalaman ng mga ito, minsan siya nang isinumpa ang ganda na mayro'n siya.

She has her own weaknesses and flaws. She has her own struggles and difficulties. She wasn't perfectly made. Her beauty didn't save her from troubles and dangers. Instead, it put her in her own grave.

Valeska gently caressed her face through her reflection on the mirror.

"I am not mad at you," she whispered with a small smile.

The sides of her eyes watered and she doesn't want to stop that. She wants her emotions to be free.

"I promise, I won't let anyone hurt you again. I'll save you. You won't be in the dark anymore. Because... I'll save you." She promised to the woman in front of her.

Valeska jumped a bit when she heard a light knock on the door.

Parang napaso na inalis niya ang kamay sa harap ng salamin at napakurap. Nasapo niya ang dibdib dahil sa biglang kaba na dumagan do'n.

She composed herself before she opened the door.

Rashid's worried and handsome face welcomed her. Nang makita siya nito, naglaho ang kaninang pag-aalala.

"It took you so long inside," he said, then looked above her shoulder as if somebody was inside with her.

Kunot-noo na sinundan niya ang tingin nito. Tapos ay muling ibinalik dito ang maang na mga mata niya. The way he intently stares at her was like a fire that burns her skin.

"I did my night routine and blow dried my hair," she gave him an apologetic smile for keeping him wait.

He's on his boxer shorts only. He's so confident walking around and topless. It made her think that he's already comfortable having her around him.
