BETRAYAL

Chapter Eighteen

ATTENTION: RAW. UNEDITED. I DON'T PLAN TO EDIT THIS SO BEAR WITH TYPOS AND ERRORS.

ILANG saglit lamang nilang nasilayan ang kahubdan ni Trina bago namatay ang mga ilaw at pawang kadiliman ang namayani ng ilang segundo bago uli lumiwanag ang silid.

Wala na si Trina sa harapan nila. Pumailanlang sa silid ang isang mabagal at katamtamang lakas ng tugtugin ng musika. Siya ring paglabas nang dalawang dancer kanina, nakadamit na ang mga ito ng mas disente subalit kaakit-akit pa ring pananamit.

Binati sila nang mga babae at nagpakilala, Lilac at Rose raw ang pangalan nila. Lumapit sila sa mini bar at saka naman sila binigyan ng drinks ni Rex na na naroon at gamay na nagtimpla ng inumin para sa lahat.

Aries started flirting with the girls but showed more interest to Lilac. Rose went and sits down beside Duke who's on the couch enjoying his beer. Rex on the other hand keeps glancing at Julian who hasn't spoken since the performance was over. And Julian...Julian just keeps his eyes at the door where Kat would possibly come out from in a few.

Rex could see the intensity in his eyes. This is the only time that he saw Julian reacted to anything, especially to a prostitute whom he dislikes so much. He knows how much he's disgusted of them but tonight...tonight was different, there is something about him tonight, and it started when he took the necktie off of Trina's eyes.

And the moment they're waiting finally happened, Trina came out wearing a long and silky white dress with a low and deep cut neckline almost revealing her nipples, showing the heart shape birthmark on her right breast. There is also a long slit at the left side of the dress revealing her white silky and smooth legs up to her thigh. They could hear each other gasping for air at her entrance. It's almost like a goddess of beauty just descended to their room and got the honor to see her in flesh.

"Fuck..." Aries blurted out.

Sumipol naman si Duke habang matiim ang mga titig sa katawan at dibdib nito.

Rex darted his eyes to Julian and was confused at his reaction. Ngayon lang talaga niya nakita ang ganitong klase na Julian. Tila ito nasasaktan, nagagalit, hindi mapakali at halos...umiyak? He's really confusing him.

Ibinalik niya ang tingin kay Trina, ito ang ganda na hindi mo makikita kung saan-saan. Kahit sa showbiz at magazine, kakaiba ang angking alindog ng babaeng ito. Mapang-akit, misteryosa at mapanghalina. Maging ang katawan nito na animo sinadyang ikorte para sa kaisipan ng mga lalaking ganid sa laman. Dahil maging siya na bihirang humanga sa kagandahan ay nabighani rin nito.

"Trina, here" tawag ni Lilac na maupo sa sa tabi nito.

"I'd really like to take and hide you right now but the man of the night is Julian so it's only right for you to sit with him." pauna ni Aries na halos maglaway na sa katawan ni Trina.

Walang reaksiyon na humakbang ito palapit kay Julian. Tila bato ang napakaganda nitong mukha na walang kakayahang gumalaw o kumibot man lang. Naupo ito sa harap ni Julian habang si Julian ay hindi iniaalis ang panignin dito. Hindi pa rin ito umiimik.

Pagkuwa'y tumayo si Julian at saka tumigas ang mukha. "Follow me." aya nito kay Trina at nagpatiuna sa isang kuwarto na nasa palapag na iyon.

Gustong sumabog ng dibdib ni Julian sa sobrang pagkagulat at hindi maintindihang kirot sa kanyang dibdib. Naisara na niya ang pinto subalit nanatiling nakaharap doon habang ang likod ay nasa kama kung saan na nakaupo si Kat.
