Chapter 42

Italia Gwen Soler

NARINIG kong bumukas ang pinto ng washroom, napalingon ako dahil akala ko bumalik si Arvie. But I was wrong. Nagulat ako nang makita ko ang taong pumasok rito.

"Wendy...."

Nakita kaya niya si Arvie? Napalunok ako. Baka isipin niyang may pinaplano na naman kami na masama sa kanya.

"Bakit para kang nakakita ng multo, Italia?"

I took a deep breath at pormal na sinalubong ang kanyang mga titig. "W-why did you come here?"

She raised her eyebrows at my tone. "Do you have to be so formal? Like I need your permission to use the washroom?"

I shook my head, her mocking tone making me feel a little crazy. I was starting to lose it, I think. Dahil ito kay Arvie, hindi pa ako nakakahinga sa katatapos naming sagutan. At heto naman ngayon si Wendy, para tuloy akong pinupukpok ng matinding sakit sa dibdib kapag nakikita ko siya at kapag nararamdaman ko ang pangbabalewala niya sa akin.

"Of course, you can use the washroom anytime you want." saad ko. 

Bawat sabihin ko, kailangan kong ipunan ng determinasyon dahil baka manghina ang loob ko at mayakap ko siya bigla. Kanina ko pa pinaglalabanan ang kirot at pagkamiss ko sa kanya.

Yong panghuli ang nangingibabaw sa mga oras na ito. Miss na miss ko na siya, pero alam kong hindi na mahalaga sa kanya kung ano pa man ang nararamdaman ko.

"Are you okay?" tanong niya pero mukhang hindi naman talaga siya concern.

"Of course. And I need to leave, excuse me." saad ko dahil nakaharang siya sa pinto.

Pero imbis na tumabi siya, humakbang siya palapit sa akin at nagkadikit kami.

"I just want to prove something, Italia." Her lips brushed against my ear, her breath warm against my skin. "Just this once...."

Napakunot noo ako, pero hindi ako nakatuon sa sinabi niya kundi sa init na ibinibigay niya sa katawan ko.

She suddenly kissed me, her lips pressing hard against mine. I closed my eyes, surprised and a little hurt, because I knew I didn't matter to her anymore. But I couldn't stop myself. Something about her, her touch, her smell, felt both irresistible. Her kiss was demanding, and I found myself kissing her back, trying to figure out what was happening.

May natitira pa ba siyang pagmamahal sa akin?

Anong gusto niyang patunayan sa mga sandaling ito?

She pulled me closer, her hands warm on my back. She held me tight, and I could feel her fingers digging into my skin. Her tongue brushed against my lips, urging me to go further. I held her cheeks, we kissed deeper, and we lost in the heat of the moment. Everything else faded away, and all that mattered was the feel of her lips on mine, her perfume in my nose, and the heat coming from our entwined bodies.

We finally pulled away, breathless and flushed, but the taste of her kiss stayed with me. It was a kiss that somehow made my love for her stronger, a love as deep as the ocean.

"Why did you kiss me?" I asked. Ramdam ko ang pagiinit ng mukha ko, ang panginginig ng mga daliri ko.

"This was just to see if I still felt anything. I guess only the memories of you and me are left."

Hinihingal pa rin ako. Pumunta siya sa harapan ng salamin na parang walang nangyari.

"Liar!" I said. Nahintuan siya at napatingin sa akin.
