ThirtyThree-Watch Me!

Chapter Thirty Three

"Shake it up. move your butts. bump and grind girls, lets do this." tiffany shouted and start dancing sexily. natawa ako saka sinabayan sya.

"get up girls. the dance floor needs us!" i said smilling while dancing.

8pm at the embassy and here we are. going to parteey all night.

"Ven. nakadrugs ka ba?" Anton said seriously. napatigil ako sa pagsayaw saka tumawa ng malakas.

"Stupid! kung nakadrugs ako malamang kanina pa ko kinakaladkad ng mga spy ni daddy." i rolled my eyes while chuckling.

hindi naman tago sakin na pinababantayan ako ni daddy. Since last week may mga tauhan si Daddy sa palagid. but really. couldn't care less. magbantay sila magdamag.

"Oo nga no? eh bat ka ganyan? acting like some party animal bitch" okay. too tactless Anton. lumapit ako sa kanya saka umupo sa lap nya bago pinaikot yung braso ko sa leeg nya saka pinagdikit yung noo namin.

"you choose Loverboy. either you party with me or i'll kiss you right here right now and tell all the girls here you're available for dating." i said softly and kissed the corner of his lips. bigla ba namang tumayo kasama ako saka pinunasan yung lipstick mark.

"oo na. oo na. party all night na. kadiri ka Venice. eew! yuck! disguting! i never wanna imagine being kissed by a woman. for pete's sake. mas maganda pa ko sa inyo!" natawa kami ng malakas sa reaction ni Anton. see. takot masyado. haha

"way to go V!" Sammy shouted natawa ako bago sila niyayang sumayaw sa dancefloor.

we bump and grind with each other. si Alexis lagi sa gitna kasi takot sya sa lasing na sumasayaw.

nagsasayaw kami saka nagtatawanan nung may mabangga ako sa likod. i was about to say sorry when i had a full view of their face.

Lance and Margarette. kissing.

napatigil naman sila Anton saka tumingin sa tinitignan ko.

"Ohmygosh." Sammy

"Shit!" Tiffany

"What the hell!" Anton

"Oh no." Alexis said softly. si Andrea ayon nakatingin lang.

i smirked and stood infront of them. i pushed them away from each other saka dumaan sa gitna nila.

"excuse me." i said and smirked and walked pass them before going back to our table.

"what was that?" sabi ni Anton pagkaupong pagkaupo nya palang. umupo na rin sila.

"my husband and his mistress." i said smilling. kinuha ko yung martini sa table namin saka uminom.

"what the heck Venice! okay lang sayo un?" tiffany said half shouting. tumawa lang ako saka tumango.

"of course. 2 months and 2 weeks nalang maghihiwalay na kami. and besides. we have our own life now. wala na kong pakialam sa kanya o sa kanila man ni Margarette. he can live with the bitch for all i care." nginitian ko lang sila.

"this is what this is all about. nagagantihan kayo." Alexis said softly.

"of course not. kung magpapakasaya sya. dapat ako rin para patas. hindi ako magmumukmok para lang makita syang masaya sa kandungan ni Margarette. excuse me. i can do better than that." i rolled my eyes. umiling iling naman sila.

"this may sound cliché but didnt i say i told you so?" Andrea said softly. ngumiti lang ako.

"yeah. should have listened to you. but anyways. nandito ako para magcelebrate hindi magmukmok. so girls! lets party!" i shouted.

Andrea smiled and raised her Glass.

"To Venice's freedom. may she never let anyone hurt her again! cheers!" i smiled and raised my glasses too.

"Cheers!" i took my time drinking my martini. the girls keeps on giving me weird glances except for Andrea.

"here's for the boys who broke our heart. may they experience the hellish life we've been through because of them. may they rot in hell with the bitches they chose over us! Cheeers!" tinaas ko ulit yung baso kong kalalagay ko lang ng martini. tinitigan lang nila ako. "raise your glasses guys! celebrate with me! cheeers to every fvcking guy who wasted our love. for every wasted chances. wasted tears and wasted efforts. for every hellish years we experienced. cheeeeers!" inisang inom ko lang yung alak sa baso ko. naramdaman ko nalang pinunasan ni Alexis yung pisngi ko.

"are these tears of happiness?" Alexis said softly and touched my cheeks.

i smiled bitterly.

"Of course! i have every reason to be happy now! i'll be free as bird three months from now! dapat masaya ako eh! ang saya ko! pero bat ganto! bat ako nasasaktan sa nakita ko kanina! bat ako umiiyak!" i bursted out and cried.

niyakap naman agad ako ni Alexis. tumabi sakin si Anton saka niyakap.din ako. si Sammy naman saka si tiff hinawakan yung kamay ko. si Andrea nakatingin lang sakin.

"di ba dapat masaya ako. kasi eto naman yung gusto ko eh. eto yung gusto ko umpisa palang. di ba alam ko naman yung tungkol kay margarette. di ba alam ko naman na to. di ba dapat sanay na ko. bakit ako nasasaktan? bat ko nararamdaman to? bakit masakit?" i said in a broken voice. si Alexis umiiyak na rin.

"Ayoko nang maramdaman na mahina ako. ayoko nang maisip to. ayoko nang umiyak para sa taong hindi naman ako minahal. ayoko nang umiyak sa mga kasinungalingang sinabi nila. pagod na rin ako." i said sobbing. i know it looks pathetic. i broke down infront of them. but this has been a burden for me for two weeks now. seeing them too close and intimate gives me this feeling like something is piercing through my heart.

i've been great with modelling and everything but i failed as a wife. i cant even satisfy my husband with his needs. i've been successful with everything except having his heart.

"Tama na Girls. i dont wanna waste this tears." i wiped my tears and smiled at them.

"Let the party take it all away."

"wala na Lance. Lusaw na si Venice." Steven whispered in my ear. napatingin ako sa kanya saka umiling.

"sira ulo!" binatukan ko nga. kanina pa sya ganyan eh. "Ikaw naman. wagas ka makabantay kay Alexis." napatiim bagang si Steven. habang nakatingin sa pang labing limang lalaking lumapit kay Alexis.

"tigas ng ulo nyang babaing yan! lintek! nakakatuyo ng Dugo!" nanggigil na sabi nya.

"drop it pare. you dont own her. and you cant have her. not with Luminary around." i said and tapped his shoulder. tumango nalang sya.

"know what pare? i've been dying to ask this. anong nangyari sa inyo ni Venice?" he said with curiosity.

"its over pare. she's getting an annulment exactly 2 months and 2 weeks from now." i said softly and smiled. "i'll give her what she wants."

"that easy pare? waiting for 5 years then dissolving this marriage just a year after waiting that long? you're stupid pare. really stupid" he said and shook his head before drinking his scotch on the rocks.

"i know. but if this what she wants then so be it. i'll get by." i said softly and smiled and him.

"Laaance!" niyakap naman ako ng kakabalik lang na si Margarette. ngumiti lang ako.

"Finally! you're all mine." she said softly and hugged me tighter.
