Yours Forever (COMPLETED)

Forever 20

Alden is holding his breath. The moment is like a magical scene from a fantasy movie. Unti-unting napalingon sa kanya ang babae. Shocked is understatement tp describe what he was feeling right now. He is petrified. Totally and deadly petrified!

Para siyang nakakita ng multo. Hindi lang kaboses ng kanyang asawa ang kumakanta kanina, ngayong kaharap na niya ito ay gusto niyang sugurin ito ng yakap. She is exactly her wife. She aged a little yet her beauty blossomed to maturity. Ikinurap-kurap niya ang kanyang mga mata. He is half hoping na sana ay mali ang kanyang nakikita.

But Maine is really in his front. Gusto niya itong yakapin at hagkan until they will be both catching their breaths. Gusto niya itong lapitan at sabihin kung gaano siya nangungulila dito. "M-maine." he uttered softly.

The woman is just staring at him innocently. She smiled and her gaze passed through him. That was when he realized that this is not his wife. Hindi pamilyar sa kanya ang ngiti nito. At ang tingin nito ay walang pagmamahal. Curiosity is written in her face and that gives him a very painful outcome.

"Yes sir?" came the voice of his wife. A voice that is too different. A voice that has no love nor warmth. A voice that is very unfamiliar.

She is not her wife. She is not Maine. That realization trampled the hope inside him. Isa lang ang nasa isip niya, sino ang babaeng ito? His wife's doppelganger? Hindi niya matanggap iyon. Nag-iisa lang ang kanyang asawa sa buong mundo. Bigla siyang nanlumo.

"May kailangan po ba kayo?" muli nitong sabi. This time her voice is little bit softer yet it is still foreign to him. "Guest ka ba ng Verdant. Kung isa kang guest, ako nga pala si Kerry Anne."

Ngumiti ito and it pained him more. Hindi sa kanyang asawa ang mga ngiti nito. Pero posible bang may magkamukhang tao sa mundo na hindi naman magkamag-anak? Wala naman siyang knowledge kung may kakambal si Maine. At wala talaga dahil maging ang kanyang asawa at mga biyenan ay walang sinabing may kakambal ang asawa niya.

"Ahh." he uttered. Now, he is trembling and he can not control his body. "Ako nga pala si Alden. And I am a guest at the hotel."

"Alden?" bigkas nito ng kanyang pangalan. A gesture that his late wife would never do. Maine always calls his by endearment such as baby, honey, sweetheart, sugar and every sweet words that turns him on everytime. Although, there is an excitement in Kerry Anne's voice, it is not enough for him to infer that this is his wife. At mas lalo siyang nainis sa kanyang sarili. He has mistaken somebody for his dead wife. Bakit ba kasi ayaw ng kanyang isip na tanggapin na patay na si Maine.

"Alden Richards?" muling ulit ni Kerry Anne. Napalapit na ito sa kanya. And her scent is very familiar. It is so Maine-ish. Kaamoy nito ang asawa niya. A scent that captivated his senses and soul. Sinaway na niya ang kanyang sarili. Ayaw na niyang gumawa ng iba pang comparison. Siya lamang ang umaasa.

"Ikaw ang kaibigan nina Menard at Harry." masiglang sabi ni Kerry Anne at inilahad ang kamay nito. Tinanggap niya iyon. Muli siyang natigilan. Para talaga siyang nakahawak sa kamay ng kanyang asawa. "Ako si Kerry Anne. Menard's mother. It was nice to finally meet you."

Bago pa man siya makapagsalita ay mabilis na hinila ni Kerry Anne ang kamay nito. He found himself speaking. "It is such a pleasure to too finally meet you too Mrs. Kendrick."

"Just call me Kerry Anne." mabilis na awat nito sa kanya. "So, bakit ka napadpad dito?"

"Ahh." he replied. Mabikis na nakapagproseso ang kanyang utak at sinabi ang nasa laman nun. "I took a walk hanggang sa makarating ako dito. Sorry for interfering you."

"No need to say sorry. Ok lang naman sa akin iyon. Do you want me to walk you back to the mansion?"

"Ah, sure. I would love that."

Sinamahan nga siya ni Kerry Anne pabalik. Nagsimula ma itong magkuwento tungkol kay Menard. She even thanked him for the blood donation he made to her son a year ago. Tahimik at pangiti-ngiti lamang siya. Talagang napakaawkward ang kanyang situation. He does not like the idea of talking with his late wife's doppelganger.

Hinayaan niya itong mauna sa paglakad. Napakasexy nito sa suot nito. It was really the dress that he bought a year ago. Talagang bumagay kay Kerry Anne. Her son is really right when he told him that his mother is sexy.

Kahit meron na itong asawa't anak ay napakasexy nito. The dress reveals that her curves are on the right places. Right there, in the broad daylight, he felt her pants tightened. Does his friend's wife turning him on? He would not want to show his shameful body reaction to this lady. He released a deep sigh and tried to compose himself bago pa man siya malingon ng babae at makita ang malaking bukol sa kanyang harapan. Nabawasan ang epekto ni Kerry Anne sa kanya pero hindi pa rin tumitigil ang kanyang katawan sa pagrespond sa attraction na nasa kanyang harapan.

He silently cursed more when Kerry Anne brought out the topic about her dress. Muling nanumbalik ang init sa kanyang katawan. Nagpapasalamat si Kerry Anne sa kanya dahil sa dress na iyon. Buti na lang at nakarating na sila loob ng Verdant. Binati sila nina Daphne at Robert. Pasimple siyang napalapit sa counter at nagawa niyang itago ang bukol sa suot niyang short sa kahoy na katawan ng front desk.

Nakahinga siya ng maluwag nang magpaalam si Kerry Anne na bumalik sa kabila. Nagawa pa niyang nakipagkuwentuhan sa dalawang staffs bago pa man siya umakyat sa kanyang silid at nagbabad sa ilalim ng cold shower.
