Paramour - ViceRylle

Chapter 5 - The Date

Karylle gently took vice's arm and squeezed it. She felt the tension in their atmosphere. Napansin naman ito ni Vice.

"relax." He said. "I know, ang gwapo ko."

With that, sinapak ni K si Vice ng slight. "kapal."

Sa pagkakataong iyon, napansin ni Vice ang outfit ni Karylle. Wow, that cleavage. "you so look good."

"thanks." karylle said. "you too." She doesn't really know how to keep this conversation going. Awkward ang dating sa kaniya ng dinner na ito.

Relax K, after this, mawawala lahat 'to. Just go with him para matapos na.

When they reached for the gate, Terrence opened it at tinitigan silang dalawa na from head to foot.

"ma'am?" he said. "saan po kayo pupunta?"

Karylle was about to speak but Vice already did the job for her. "Sa party ng kaibigan namin."

Tinignan ni Karylle si Vice pero siniko lang siya nito at pinalabas na ng gate. Terrence was left speechless by the actions of the two. When they reached the car, Vice opened it for her to enter. Inside the car, Karylle can smell the expensive air freshener and the nicely designed interior. She looked at Vice as he entered the car after her.

"bakit mo yun ginawa?" She asked directly after sila makaupo sa kotse.

"ang alin?"

"you lied to Terrence." K said.

Oh so that's his name. "I have to. Gusto mo ba mabuking tayo ng asawa mo?"

"So natatakot ka na baka magsumbong ang guard namin?!" Sabi ni K na lumakas na ang boses sa loob ng kotse. "look, I only agreed for this date kasi gusto ko na tantanan mo ako. I asked permission from Yael pero hindi ko sinabi na ikaw. For sure kung sinabi ko—"

"see? You also lied. So let's stop pretending here." Vice snapped.

"I am not pretending! I don't want our marriage ruined so please lang, after this night, it's over."

"Yea right. Nasa realidad pala ako ngayon. I don't own her. Somebody else does." Vice cringed at the thought. He started driving in the silent night. "akala ko pa naman siya na talaga.. but Karylle just reminds me of her."

Nasa venue na si Vice kung saan magddate sila ng girlfriend niya na si Karen. Mga 10 minutes na siyang naghihintay pero hanggang ngayon wala pa ang dalaga. He messaged her and called her pero cannot be reached ito. Nagsisimula siyang mag-alala. "saan na kaya yun."

Karen is Vice's girlfriend. That night, ipapakilala na sana ni Vice sa ama ang jowa. 2 months pa lang sila pero buo na ang kompyansa ni Vice na s'ya na nga ang babaeng gusto n'yang pakasalan. Pati si Billy at Vhong ay kilala ang babae. Malapit si Karen sa barkada ni vice at lahat ng qualities na hinahanap n'ya sa isang babae ay meron ito. Or so he thought. Once in a blue moon lang kung magmahal si vice at hindi niya akalain na yun pala ang mangyayari. Si Karen ang dahilan kung bakit nadurog ang puso n'ya at ang dahilan kung bakit hanggang ngayon ay bato ito.

Babe calling...

Sinagot kaagad ito ni Vice.

"Karen where are you? Did you forget na ipapakilala kita kay papa today?"

"babe..."

"what?"

"I'm sorry... nasa airport ako ngayon.. I'm leaving."
