His Redemption

9- The Walk

Hirvi:

A wavy brown hair, ah, yes.,

I gently stroked the paint brush on the canvas board as I vividly visioned my masterpiece in my bloody mind. She's quiet..devious and goddamn angelic at the same time!

Damn her curves! Conveying her impeccable body through my skills is really..weird! This is so f**king weird!

Painting Aleya Buenavesta while washing along the river bank was way too..entertaining!

Ah, damn it! That was the first time that I went through that river and the place was indeed magnificent---the beauty of nature that I used to love here in Bulacan.

It was the lovely nature that I considered first for painting—hell yes. It just happened that she was there, too!

I could still the rampage of my blood raging against that woman for her outrageous attitude—damn that stupid maid!

I planned it through! I deliberately brought her laundry—para pahirapan siya pero sa huli ay ako lang ang nahirapan at napahiya!

Done.. She's done! I breathe as I saw how breathtaking my masterpiece was. Damn, right? She was so alive-so real! Totoong-totoo katulad ng ipinapakita nitong ugali araw-araw. And I spent hours painting this sh*t..

Donno what's f***** wrong in my mind right now! She's way too alarming—her wild yet beautiful damn eyes, her tanned-sweet skin glowing under the heat of sun, and f**k her dress, wasn't it a dress or what?

Whatever! Para siyang nagsuot ng isang basahan pero para lang siyang naging isang modelo na nag-photoshoot sa ilog. Damn it Hirvi!

And a loud knock intercepted my reverie from that woman—glad I was being intercepted. I stood up and opened my gallery room's door. There she was!

The woman who annoys me the most—Aleya Buenavista!

I hastily locked the door and slammed it close. I don't want to see her face—not right now that I left my canvass on the side of my bed, damn it!

And I don't wanna let that irritating woman see it and presumed things. The river was the highlight of this canvass, nothing more!

But why it seemed that I was like guilty against my own verdict? Damn it! Foolish, let me say! Saka siya nagsalita sa labas na mas ikina-irita ko pa.

"Hoy, seniorito Hirvi—baka mamatay ka diyan sa gutom kung ayaw mo akong papasukin!" Mamatay? Tsk!

I smirked without uttering a word as I hurriedly cleaned all the mess most especially this canvass of her—no, I mean the river, damn it. I held it instantly and headed towards my huge wooden cabinet and pushed it to open. Habang malalakas naman ang katok ni Aleya sa labas—naiinis naman talaga ako sa ugali ng 'sang to. Siya na 'ata ang mas makulat kaysa sa mommy ko at mas mausisa kaysa sa daddy ko! Lahat ng bagay sa buhay ko—pinakapakialaman at sinusumbong.

That's why I hate her! Certainly am!

Malakas kung isinara ang cabinet saka hinubad ang t-shirt kong puno ng mga mantsa at isinukbit ko sa balikat. There, I heard the vibratating sound coming from my starve stomach—I really forgot about the time and it's already past eight in the evening.

"Seniorito Hirvi! Hoy! Kumain ka na at baka ka mamatay--!"

"Shut up, will you?! Kanina ka pa, ah?"
