The Secret Tutor

13

Hindi magawang mag salita ni Marie habang tinutunton nila ang daan pabalik sa dorm ni Luke. Tinawagan na nito si Hunter na tumambay sa dorm nila ni Chloe. Alam ni Marie na galit ito. Lalo nasa kanya. Hindi niya sinabi kay Luke ang ginawa ni Justin noon sa kanya at kung bakit hiniwalayan niya ito. And she know she will be facing the consequences of her action. 

Nang makapasok sa kwarto at nilock ni Luke ang pinto at isinandal si Marie sa pinto. Sinunggaban nito ang mga labi niya. And it was a different kiss than before. It was harsh and painful. A punishment for her. At hindi magawang magalit ni Marie lalo pa't ramdam niya ang panginginig ng katawan ni Luke sa galit. Sa huli ay pinilit niyang sabayan ito sa paghalik. Accepting the punishment she truly deserve. 

Luke pick her up and deposit her on the bed. He continue kissing her. On her lips. Face. Ear. Jaw. Neck. Luke's losing his control pero walang nararamdamang kaba si Marie. Dahil alam niyang hindi siya pipilitan ni Luke kung ayaw niya. He will not hurt her.

Nang parehas silang kapusin ng hininga ay pinagdikit ni Luke ang noo nila at itunoon ang ilang segundo sa paghinga ng normal. Nanatiling nakapikit si Marie at ninanamnam ang mainit na paghinga ni Luke sa mukha niya. 

'Damn you, Marie.' saad nito sa pagitan ng paghinga. 'Pano mo nagawang ilihim yun sa akin. You had opportunities to tell me the truth, pero sa halip sa itinago mo. Kailangan ko pang malaman kay Justin kung paano ka niya binaboy noon, and look at what happen. I lost control, Marie.'

Niyakap ni Marie si Luke at umiling. Naramdaman niya ang pamamasa ng pisngi sa mga luhang nagsimulang pumatak mula sa mga mata niya. 

'I'm sorry Luke. ' walang ibang masabi si Marie. 

Luke brace his arms on the side of her face. Binuksan ni Marie ang mga mata nang maramdaman ang titig ni Luke. She saw the hurt and anger on his face. Marie place her hands on his cheeks. 

'I'm sorry Luke.'

'You should've told me Marie. '

'Alam ko Luke.  Kahit na matagal na kaming tapos ni Justin ay pakiramdam ko ay hawak niya pa rin ako. Na may kontrol pa rin siya sa buhay ko. And I think not telling you means I can forget it easily. And I forgot it Luke for the mean time. I love the way you look at me. The way you hold me, without wanting to hurt me.The way you look at me with so much desire and no hidden agenda. I love how I felt safe and secure with you look. '

'You can't forgot it by just hiding the truth. You can rely on me Marie.I will help you to forgot everything. I can't undo the things Justine done, but I can change you memories of it.That when I wrap my hand around your neck you will not remember Justin's hand but mine. And it will accompany by the knowledge that I want you Marie. Lusting you. Loving you.' Luke whisper in his bedroom voice. 

Namula ang mukha ni Marie sa narinig. There's no doubt left in Marie's head of Luke's wanting her  when his hard erection presses on her belly. 

'When I touch you body...' Luke roam his hand on her clothe cover body. '...you remember how much I worship this body. And I will never ever hurt it. Pain it. But instead take care  of it and love everything about you.' Luke put a kiss on her stomach before climbing up and kiss Marie on her lips. 'I love you.'

Marie hug Luke just to hide her tears on him. She was moved by his words. Hindi niya maalala kung anong kabutihan ang ginawa niya para makatanggap nang isang lalaking magmamahal sa kanya ng ganito. She was lucky to have him. 

'I love you, Luke. You're one of the best thing that happen to me.' 

Luke lay on the grass and made Marie's thigh as his pillow. Pagod siya hindi dahil sa prasktis. Katatapus lang ng exam niya and he want to unwind and forget the past days na puro pag-aaral ang ginawa nila ni Marie.
