Revenge of the Ex Wife (2022 Revise) Uncomplete

Chapter Sixteen

(SPG ahead)

...This is all entire Julian's POV.

Kaka uwi ko lang ng bahay galing sa school at naririnig ko na naman ang away ng parents ko. My Mum kept bugging my Dad about the will eh bedridden pa lang naman si Dad at hindi naman mamatay, I asked her actually about it, insensitive kasi, they are not the lovey dovey couple pero mag asawa pa rin sila.

''Kung hindi ako maninigurado, pamamalimos sa kalsada ang aabutin mo Julian, this is for you son, all I'm doing is for you.''

And that made me shut up, hindi ko alam kung saan ang paninindigan ko bilang anak nila, school made me forget these complicated things for a while kaya mas madalas nasa university ako kaysa sa bahay.

''Hala patay! Sorry.''

Namalayan ko na lang na may nakabanggaan pala ako habang papaakyat ako sa silid, tiningnan ko ang babae, half of her face was covered by her hair.

''Sino ka?'' Tanong ko, hindi naman siya naka maid unform at saka kilala ko naman lahat ng kasambahay namin.

''Ako yung bagong personal maid ni Sir Alfonso, ako si Ysabelle Sir Julian.''

Tumaas ang kilay ko. ''You know me?''

''Eh Sir Julian naman ang laki kaya ng litrato ninyo sa dingding saka lagi din kayong bukangbibig ni Don Alfonso.'' Sagot niya habang tumawa siya ng bahagya.

Yet somehow, that little smile made my cheeks hot. My heart was beating an unknown rhythm, so I looked away. Napa isip ako, did he just lost my mind? How could he act so childish? Pero natagpuan ko nalang ang sarili ko lagi siyang kinakausap tuwing uuwi ako ng bahay, everything about her is refreshing.

Until one day, I got home that night, I remembered kasama ko sina Nick, Luis at Kate dahil graduation party namin sa college.
Hindi na ako nagpaalam pa sa tatlo na umuwi ako.

The smell of other people's perfume made me sick. I knew I was not simply drunk, may naglagay ng drugs sa inumin ko na hindi ko namalayan. It was so hot and uncomfortable.

Tulog na ang mga tao sa bahay, bukas ng umaga pa din makaka uwi si Mom dahil out of town, mag isa kong inakyat ang sarili ko sa kwarto hanggang sa nawalan ako ng balanse sa railings ng hagdan mabuti nalang at nasalo ako ni Ysabelle.

''Why are you still here?'' Tanong ko, isang buwan na rin buhat ng mamatay si Dad kaya umalis na rin siya sa bahay.

''Binalikan ko kasi ang naiwan kong gamit pero napa haba ang usapan namin ni Aling Layla kaya nakitabi nalng ako sa kanya pagtulog, mamayang umaga na ako uuwi, mabuti na lang at nauhaw ako kaya nakita kita.''

Inalalayan niya ako hanggang sa makapasok na kame sa kwarto ko. The whole time I was silent, she wasn't even aware of our close proximity. My nose was close to her neck. I don't know why I find her scent so enticing.

Pinaupo niya ako sa kama, the bright moon illuminated through the windows, ang liwanag niya sa paningin ko, small size face, thick mouth, thin waist, gentle and charming disposition. Ysabelle was wearing a white dress, she seemed frail like a newborn flower that needed protection,  marami na akong nakitang magaganda but tonight, Ysabelle's beauty became profoundly clear to me; it was like she was carved perfectly for my taste.
 

''Gusto mo ng tubig?'' Tanong niya.

Tiningnan ko siya ulit, somehow when I looked into her eyes, I had the strange sensation of growing thirst.

....I want this woman.

Nagulat siya nang hinawi ko ang buhok niyang tumatabon sa peklat niya, her scars doesn't even matter, hanggang sa bigla ko siyang hinila ko siya sa kama,  I kissed her despite her protest.
