Always Been You

Twenty eight (part two)

Doomed

"Congratulations!"  Palakpalakan ang lahat.

"I know you're gonna make it son."  I can see pride in Daddy's eyes. He tagged along with my sister and mom just to witness my recognition.  He never failed me in attending special occasions like this.  I was warmth with how they loved me unconditionally.  That's makes me tamed this time.  Yun ang sinasabi ko.

This calls for a celebration of freedom from a very serious condition and welcoming a more heavy responsibility ahead of me, I suppose.  I drew a deep breath.

"Thank you anak."  mom seems emotional this time.  I don't know.  Maybe she is just being so overwhelmed of my great performance here in spite of being brat sometimes.

"No sweat mom!" iniliyad ko pa ang dibdib  habang nagmamayabang siyang sinagot.  Tawa ng tawa si mommy sa tinuran ko at hinampas ako sa braso.  I hugged her.  "I love you mom." I suddenly burst out.  ngayon ko lang na realize how I missed my mother  all the years I am away from them.

I was instructed to attend a conference in California.  Well, here we go.  This might be a part of my life from now on.  so, let's get it on!

The conference was well attended by managing directors all over the world  with a theme "Modern Medicine: A Challenge to Great Opportunity in Health Wellness".  It aims to guide the medical administrative level and medical doctors in providing an advance preemptive medical care to a more complicated illnesses.

The conference is so timely and I felt it is suitable for me as I am about to embark a new role.

"So the hottest doctor is in town huh?" her blond hair freely on her upper torso.  it shine through the tiny lights moving around.  I am now on my second serve of scotch on the rocks.  I brought the contents through my mouth in one gulp without leaving my eyes on her.  Amusement played on her eyes as she stared at me in awe.

"Anna, what a surprise!" its the model I hanged out with, Annalie.

She just swayed her body towards me in her signature moves.  I shook my head mischievously.  Ah. This girl can be into this trouble.  

"Let's just say, I can smell you from here?  How was that?" she playfully laughed while pinching on my arms.  Maya't maya humingi na rin ito ng maiinom.  Pinabigyan ko siya sa bartenderng martini.  Napansin ko rin ang panay kuha nito ng alak pagkatapos maubos ang nauna kong order para sa kanya.

Mataas ang alcohol tolerance nito kaya hindi kaagad tinamaan pagkatapos makaubos na ilang baso ng alak.  Napailing na lang ako.  Could be possible that her work as model get her used to drinking the same?

We talked on random topics like we used to.  Nakakaaliw kausap ang babaeng ito.  She can be flirt, yes, but I cannot deny her of being a good company after how many years of being together.

We end up in her hotel room.  She is the usual aggressive type especially when it comes to bed.  Well, most of women I banged are like her.  Feisty and real fuck.  I am always pleasured in her own ways which I liked her so much about.  She never failed to impress me.  Her hunger for me is so evident in the ways she worshipped my body.  "I go mad about you Paolo.  You are mine, all mine." I was elated as she sucked me whole.  Fuck this woman! 

She went on top of me and moved deliriously.  I came in no time.  That was hot!

I immediately went out of her room, my flight will be early tomorrow.  She has this uncontrollable appetite in bed.  Sabihin ba naman na dahil daw sa akin kaya naging ganoon siya.  Well... can't blame her.  This brought about by the good genes I got.

I took a connecting flight from California to Philippines.  Magkasabay pa kami ni Annalie sa eroplano pauwi.  Coincidence eh.

Kanina pa kami dito sa parking lot.  I am making ways and means for her to go home.  Gusto ba naman sumama sa akin.  I don't want her this clingy to me.  Yun ang pinaka kinaiinisan ko sa mga babae nalilink sa akin.  Napailing na lang ako lalo na nung makita kong si Josef na lang ang nakaantabay sa akin sa labas ng sasakyan.  He looked anxious.   Alam kong nasa loob na ang nobya nito.

After matanggap ni Annalie ang tawag galing sa mommy nito ay nagpatinaod na rin itong pahatid sa sasakyan na kanina pa nakaantabay sa kanya.  "I'll be missing you Pao." halos maiiyak na sabi pa nito sa akin.  Women!  "Yeah, I know.  You go ahead." at pinasok ko na ito.  Pero she clung to me and gave me a deepest kiss na halos ma vacuum na niya ang labi ko.  Damn this woman!

Nagmadali naman akong pumunta sa sasakyan ni Josef.  "Shotgun seat man!" turo sa unahang pinto katabi niya.  "Sorry about that dude." sabi ko habang ikinakabit ang seatbelt ko.  nakakahiya naman sa girlfriend nito.  Gumawa pa talaga si Annalie ng eksena.

I turned to greet her but was stunned when I saw someone I longed for all my life is now sitting beside her... si Laurice.  "Hi... K-kaye."  nanatiling nakapako kay Laurice ang mga mata ko at ang pagbati kay Kaye ay halos hindi ko na maibigkas.  

I was suddenly deprived of oxygen.  I saw her facing the car window.  She looks so ravishing and more exquisite than the last time I saw her.  Glendale lifestyle definitely suits her.  "Hi your face." I heard her friend answered in monotonus tone.  Humalakhak naman ang nobyo nitong katabi ko at nakatuon sa daan ang atensyon.  Pasalamat ito na wala ako sa sariling wisyo ngayon.

The both of them are least of my concern now.  Bigla akong nablangko.  I don't know how to compose myself!  I walked like a zombie.  Hindi ko na nga napansin na nakarating na pala ako sa unit ko.  I ran through my hair.  Napasabunot ako. Fuck this!  I gulped a glass of whisky I got.  Ibinato ko ang baso sa pader.  I'm totally doomed.
