Sultry Shanti

4 No fun

Shanti POV

"Shot of tequilla, dear. And keep it coming." I shouted to the bartender as I scant the people dancing in Valkire Bar.

"So my queen, what do you want me to do?" Vic said to my ears as I looked everywhere for my target. A mischievous smile stretched my lips as I saw my target dancing with a man.

"You see that guy over there? I want you to punch him, pretend that your the girl's boyfriend. Itakbo mo si girl papuntang parking. Let's have our fun with her." I said and drink my shot of tequila straight, the bartenter placed another shot in front of me.

"What! You want me to cause trouble here? Baby, paano kapag gumanti ng suntok at masuntok ang pinakaiingatan kong mukha?" Ani Vic and I chuckled, oo nga pala model itong mokong na 'to, puhunan niya maganda niyang katawan at ang gwapo niyang mukha.

"Then dont get punched at!" Natatawang sagot ko. Napabuntong hininga si Vic sabay muling sinulyapan ang tinitignan ko rin sa dancefloor.

"Ano bang kasalanan nila sa'yo?" Nagkakamot ang ulong tanong ni Vic.

"Well, that bitch thought I'm flirting with his guy and pulled my hair. No one dares to hurt Shanti Almonte, so I punched her. To make my story short, I ended up in jail because of that stupid slut. So, Vicy Kinky, do as I asked and make it worth watching, dear." I said as I push him to the dance floor.

"Alright, alright I'll punch the guy and make a run with the girl, wait for us outside, okay?" Nakasimangot na sagot nito.

"I'll deal with her later, I wanna watch first. Make sure you introduce yourself to the guy okay? Tell him you're the boyfriend then punch him. And wait for me in the parking." Muling ulit ko sa gagawin na ikinatango lang ng ulo ni Vic sabay tungga ng alak sa kopita niya. Malakas na ibigsak niya ang walang lamang baso sa lamesa. Vic gathered all his strength then went straight to the guy.

I laughed so hard when I saw Vic throw three punches to the guy and hold the girl's hand and dragged her out. The sight is hilarious. Teary eyed, I headed outside for the finale.

"Hi bitch! Remember me?" I said as I saw Vic behind the girl, holding both her arms and clamping her mouth shut. I saw the girl's eyes widened with terror after recognizing me.

"You have the guts to come back here? You should have believed me when I told you I'll finish you off when I see that ugly face again!" kitang kita ko ang panginginig ng tuhod niya at animo'y gusto ng mabuwal kung hindi nga lang hawak siya ni Vic.

"On your knees!" Utos ko sa kanya na nanginginig naman niyang sinunod iyon. Then I slapped her really hard, my palm leaves a red mark on her cheek.

"Hoy! Tigil!" Malakas na sigaw na nagpatigil sa akin sa pagsampal sa kabilang pisngi ng babae sa harapan ko. Napalingon ako sa apat na taong tumatakbo papunta sa amin.

"Lagot na!" Kabadong ani Vic habang kalmado naman akong humarap sa mga nagtatakbuhang lalaki papunta sa akin. Nang makalapit ay napangiti pa ako sa pinakamatangkad na binata.

"Ikaw nanaman! Shanti, what the hell!" Ani ng matipunong binata sabay kamot sa ulo niya.

"Sabi ng bouncer ko may gumawa daw ng gulo kaya napatakbo ako dito! Ikaw lang pala Shanti! Goodness! Kelan ka ba magbabago?" Pagalit na ani Kuya Hunt sa akin. Nginitian ko lang siya ng ubod tamis.

"Kuya Hunt, I'm just teaching this girl a lesson." Painosenteng sagot ko.

"Help me please. Tumawag kayo ng pulis! Please sir!" Nanginginig pero nagmamakaawang ani ng babaeng nakaluhod. Tinignan ko siya ng masama na nagpatigil sa kanya sa pagsasalita.

Aktong lalapit ang tatlong bouncer na kasama nung matangkad na lalaki ng biglang pigilan sila nito.

"Shanti, you can't do this things in my turf, take your shît elsewhere." Ani Kuya Hunt. Kyle Hunter Davidson owns the Valkire bar. My father is also a friend of his father, so we go a long way back. Alam kong kilala din niya ako at kung ano ako.

"Yes, Kuya Hunt." I sweetly replied na ikinailing ng ulo nito sa akin. Tumingin siya sa babaeng nakaluhod.

"Whatever you did, I suggest you ask her to forgive you. Even if you call the police, they can't help you." Payo ni Kuya Hunt sa babae na lalong nagpalakas ng iyak nito.

"Shanti, not here!" Mariin lang ani Kuya Hunt at mabilis din siyang umalis.

"Whew! Akala ko lagot na tayo! Ano ba kasing balak mo sa babaeng ito?!" Ani Vic habang hawak pa din niya sa braso ang babaeng nakaluhod.

"Hmmm... I can't decide. Let's take her somewhere first. Let's have our fun with her elsewhere, iyong walang istorbo." Excited na aniko. Kita ko ang pagkindat ni Vic. Alam kong sinasakyan lang niya ang pananakot ko sa babae.

"Please! Huwag po! Sorry po! Sorry po! Saktan niyo na lang po ako dito. Huwag niyo lang po akong kidnap-in! Maawa na po kayo." Umiiyak ng anas ng babae. Alam kong nagtagumpay na akong takutin siya. Nakabawi na ako sa pagpapakulong niya sa akin. And that's enough for me. I was about to help her stand ng biglang may malakas na boses ang nagpagulat sa akin. Muli kong nabitawan ang umiiyak na babae.

"What the hell are you doing Shanti!" Sigaw ng nasa likod ko. Kilalang kilala ko ang boses na yun.

Bwisit naman oh!Bakit ba andaming istorbo?!

Hinarap ko ang pinagmulan ng boses at ngumiti ng peke. Muli kong itinayo ang babae sabay akbay sa kanya.

"Hi Xavior, we we're just talking. She's a friend of mine, 'di ba?" Aniko pa sa babaeng halos maihi na sa cheap na dress nito, natatakot itong tumango.

"Are you kidnapping the girl?!" Galit na bulyaw ni Xavior

"What are you talking about! I told you we're just..." di ko na natapos ang sasabihin ko ng hatakin ni Xavior ang braso ng babae at ilayo sa akin.

"Go home. You are crossing influential people here so you better not talk about what happened. Don't make it worst on you. Now go!" Mahinahong sabi nito sa babae na nagmamadaling tumango at nagtatakbo palayo sa amin. Lawyers really know how to scare potential plaintiffs.

"There goes our fun!" I said in my most sarcastic voice and I heard Vic chuckled. Xavior gave Vic a stern look which unsettled him. Kaya naman agad siyang naglipat ng tingin sa akin. His eyes asking who the hell is the guy staring at him to death. I only smiled at Vic questioning eyes, not wanting to introduce Xavior to him.

"So my queen, if there's nothing else, can we go back to the bar now? I feel like I need a drink." Vic said as he closes his car door and offer me his arm. I grab it grinning at him.

"Let's go." I replied. Lalagpasan na sana namin si Xavior ng bigla nitong hatakin ang braso ko dahilan para mapatigil kami. Una kong tinignan ang mahigpit na hawak ni Xavior sa braso ko pataas sa lalaking may gawa non.

"Does making another person suffer your kind of fun?!" His voice laced with hatred and sarcasm. Lalong nanlisik ang mata ni Xavior ng matamis ko siyang ngitian.

"Yup. So be careful not to be on my bad side, Montalban." I said sweetly then pushed his hand away. Agad ko ding hinatak si Vic na animo'y napako sa pagkakatayo.

"Holyshįt! Who the hell was that?! I think I almost peed my pants! That guy is intimidating as hell." Vic blabbered as we entered the Valkire bar again. He sounded drunk but I fully agreed on what he said. Xavior can be really intimidating that I have to admit to myself that even I felt nervous when he's around.

"Ignore him." Aniko na lang kay Vic sabay abot sa kanya ng baso ng tequila na nakangiting inabot sa akin kanina ng barista. Pero kahit ganon ang sinabi ko ay hindi ko napigilan ang mata ko na lingunin ang entrance ng bar. As if on que, Xavior manifested on the entrance door. He entered the bar like he owned the place. Girls instantly looked at him with their flirtatious smile as he walked past them. My eyes rolled in annoyance. Then I disappointedly sighed, tonight will be no fun at all.
