Your sense of humor blows my mind.
Sinaid ni Iñigo ang laman ng kanyang baso at saka pinirmahan ang bill sa bar. Habang naglalakad pabalik sa suite nila ni Charo ay muli niyang kinausap ang Diyos.
Last minute joke, huh? I bet You find this really funny.
Napabuntong-hininga siya. Halos hindi siya makapaniwala sa ipinagtapat sa kanya kanina ni Charo at hindi rin niya inaasahan ang kanyang naging reaksiyon. Marahil labis lang niyang ikinabigla ang sinabi nito kaya't hindi niya napaghandaan ang kanyang magiging reaksiyon.
Hindi ba at dapat siyang matuwa sa katotohanang iyon? Isa pa iyong karagdagang pagganti, kung tutuusin ngunit sa halip ay nagbigay sa kanya ng suliranin. At labis na nabagabag ang kanyang konsensiya roon. The woman was a friggin' virgin at twenty-eight. Sino ang makakahula noon, lalo na at marami na rin itong naging nobyo sa pagkakaalam niya?
It shouldn't matter to him, but it did. Sa kabila ng plano niya sa mag-ama ay mayroon pa rin pala siyang boundaries. Mayroon pa rin pala siyang mga limitasyon. At nauunawaan niya iyon ngayon---kung kailan wala sa tiyempo. Marahil ay ipagpapaliban na lamang muna niya ang honeymoon nila, ngunit tiyak na magtataka ang babae at hindi rin niya tiyak kung hanggang kailan niya magagawang maipagpaliban ang bagay na iyon nang hindi ito nagsusupetsa sa kanya.
His plan would take about a year at most. Pagkatapos ng panahong iyon ay palalayain na niya si Charo. At sa wakas ay matatahimik na siya at mabibigyan na ng hustisya ang kamatayan ng kanyang ama. Magagawa ba niyang patagalin ng isang taon na hindi sumisiping sa kanyang asawa?
Hindi. Imposible. Magtataka ito. Well, collateral damage. Malinaw iyon sa kanya mula simula. Sa katunayan si Charo ang tanging kahinaan ni Genaro. Sadyang hindi maaaring mawala ito sa eksena bilang collateral damage. Tulad niya sa ginawang pagpatay ni Genaro sa kanyang ama. Pasensiyahan na lamang ngunit hindi puwedeng walang ganoon at dahil pinili niyang bigyan ng hustisya ang kanyang ama ay kailangan niyang tanggapin na mayroong mga ganitong bagay na darating sa buhay niya.
Binuksan na niya ang silid at nasorpresa nang makita ang asawa sa kama, wala ni isang saplot sa katawan.
"W-well... D-do you like what you see?" anito.
She was stammering like a... well, like a virgin. And to answer her question, yes. He did like what he was seeing. He liked it so much he was having an erection. The woman was a goddess. Ang makinis nitong balat ay mula ulo hanggang paa. Wala ni isang pulgada sa katawan na iyon ang hindi biniyayaan ng kinis at ganda.
"What are you doing?" tanong niya. Tapos na agad ang plano niyang ipagpaliban saglit ang honeymoon.
Tumayo ito at nilapitan siya. Hinawakan nito ang kanyang mga kamay at iginiya siya tungo sa kama kung saan siya nito itinulak.
"I may be a virgin but I know how to please you," sambit nito. Hindi nakaligtas sa kanya ang goosebumps sa katawan nito, marahil sa lamig at pagkahiya sapagkat kanina pa pulang-pula ang mukha nito hanggang leeg. It made her all the more desirable.
"Oh, yeah?" he said, intrigued now.
Tumango ito at simulang hubarin ang kanyang damit. Sa tuwing sasayad ang balat nito sa balat niya ay may matinding init iyong hatid. Finally, he was totally naked and she stared at him for a while. Napatawa siya sa reaksiyon nito. Hindi nito kayang ikaila ang pagkabigla. He almost couldn't believe it was her first time to see a naked man.
"Cat caught your tongue, honey?" tudyo niya rito.
"N-no. I w-was just thinking of how I would please you. Are y-you ready?"
"Are you?"
"O-of course!"
Sumandal siya sa headboard at pinabayaan itong gawin kung ano ang ibig nito. Marahan itong lumapit sa kanya at hinagkan ang kanyang mga labi. He wanted to take her right then and there but he knew he had to give way to what she wanted to do to him. It still intrigued him.
Bumaba ang mga labi nito sa kanyang leeg, pababa sa kanyang dibdib, at pababa pa. Her hand clutched the engorged part of him and the mere sight of the fairness of her skin against his bronze skin was enough to make him want her more. She was not aware of how much she was making him ache for her.
And then she extended her pretty little tongue and the first touch of it on his skin made him moan. And the sound seemed to make her eager to explore what her lovely mouth can do, the little witch. Soon he was almost delirious with desire.
"Enough!" he said, almost out of control, pulling her hand so that she was lying down the bed. "You naughty girl."
Maingat niyang hinagkan ang katawan nito. He savored every inch of her, prolonging this sweet torture when all he wanted was to have her. He knew though that he would have to take it slow. She deserved all the gentleness he can afford for it was her first time.
He spread her legs open and her thighs seemed to have already weakened from desire, moist from it as well. The first taste of her moist flesh was heaven; her soft purr, delicious. He went on pleasuring her, her climax his aim to fuel his desire even more, as if he still needed that. After a short while she spasmed and he entered her, ever so gently, the tightness of her flesh enveloping him.
His pleasure building up in unbelievable pace was probably another joke, he thought. At marahil si Charo ang pinakamalaking biro ng tadhana sa kanya sapagkat hindi niya kailanman naisip na magiging ganito ang epekto ng babae sa kanya. She was supposed to be the key to his revenge. Who would have thought she would become his weakness? Physically at least.
But this sexual chemistry they had was very powerful it was both gift and curse. More curse than gift, probably.
He continued plunging deep until she shivered. He let go of control and climax reached him in a split second. She pulled him and hugged him. It was such an affectionate gesture he couldn't help but feel guilty.
Her father never felt guilty, did he? You have come this far, don't let him win again. This is your only chance.
"That was... so good," sambit ng babae, habol ang paghinga nito.
Napangiti siya, hinaplos ang pisngi nito, hinagkan iyon. "I'm glad. Because we'll be doing that more and more."
Tumawa ito bagaman nakaingos. "Do you think you got me pregnant?"
Noon siya natigilan. Hindi niya naisip ang bagay na iyon. "I don't know. But you must take the pill. At least for now."
Mukhang nabigla ito. "But why?"
"Nagsisimula pa lang tayo. Gusto ko sanang i-enjoy muna ang pagiging mag-asawa natin. After all, we got married right away, we didn't get the chance to enjoy being together. And I want that."
"Of course. I want that too." Hinaplos nito ang kanyang pisngi. "I want that too. I will ask my gynecologist. But Daddy wants grandchildren."
"And grandchildren we shall give him. Maybe next year."
"He'd love that. Kiss me, honey."
He did.
