Hue #18

Mirn’s POV

Before I could catch my breath, he shoved me onto the bed, pinning me down with his weight. His hands gripped my wrists, holding them above my head as he leaned in, his face inches from mine. I turned my head, trying to avoid his lips, but he forced a rough kiss onto me.

“Get off me!” I screamed, struggling beneath him, kicking my legs and writhing to break free. His grip tightened, and he used one hand to hold both of my wrists, freeing his other hand to roam over my body. The more I fought, the more he seemed to enjoy it, his eyes gleaming with a twisted satisfaction.

“You think you can just walk away?” he hissed between kisses, his breath hot against my skin. “You’re mine now, Meredith, and your dear Gavion will not be able to save you.”

“Well, too bad because I don’t need saving!” I pulled all my strength and managed to twist one wrist free and clawed at his face, leaving red scratches across his cheek. He growled in pain but didn’t relent, only pressing harder against me.

“You bitch!” he spat, grabbing my wrist again and slamming it back onto the bed. 

Damn it! Masyado siyang malakas. How am I going to get away from him?

“Aaaaah! Help! Gavion!” I screamed. “Someone helped me—hmmm!” He covered my mouth with his palm.

“Hmm!” I still tried to push him with everything I could. But I just couldn’t… my body is trying to leave me especially when he pulled out a knife and pressed it in my throat.

“Careful, darling. One wrong move and I will slit your throat. You don’t want that, don’t you?” He smirked. 

“Why are you doing this?” I pleaded, tears streaming down my face. Nanlalabo na rin ang paningin ko. “W-what do you want? I didn’t do anything to you. Gavion! Help!”

He chuckled devilishly. “Sure, mate, you didn’t. Gavion did, and you’re the closest I have to his downfall.” He sniffed me as his lips trailed around my neck.

“No, please.. “ My voice was weak as I pleaded harder. “Please, please. Don’t do this. Ah! Help me—hmm!”

Walang epekto. He clearly was on drugs and it seemed to me that he wasn’t even aware of what he was doing. Anong gagawin ko? Hindi pwede… 

“M…mealor… we can still talk about this. W-what do you want? No!” I shouted when he started ripping my clothes. My hands were still tied up over my head and as soon as he dropped the knife on the side, he punched my stomach and positioned himself on top of me.

I coughed blood. 

“Nice body, Meredith…” He whispered as his hands roamed around my body. Naalis na niya ang hook ng bra ko.

I shouted and kicked my feet when his mouth cupped my breast but was cut off when he pressed his palms in my mouth and punched me again. 

“Gavion…” That was all I could say as my visions blurry from tears. “Gavion… please…”

***

My whole body hurts when I wake up. It was a blurry sight and for a second I thought I saw my best friend Ashley standing beside me. Is she crying…?

“Ash…” I whispered. 

Am I dying? Is that why I could see her? Sinusundo na ba niya ako? Sasama na ba ako sa kanya? 

“Ashley…I missed you…”

I wasn’t sure how long I was calling her name before I finally realized I was having a lucid dream. Nakalimutan ko na nga lang kung ano pero alam ko na kinausap ako ni Ashley.
