ONE SHOT STORIES (COMPILATION)

WHEN LUST IS STRONGER THAN LOVE

@kapitana

"Wala ka ba talagang balak? Like I mean we're mature na" she asked, I looked at her with a blank face.

"For?" I asked and I see her glared at me. "Are you even serious about doing that?"

She bit her lower lips while playing her hair, "Isn't it obvious? Yes I am serious."

I can't utter a word from what I heard, But dang she's a fine woman I just can't take her virginity like that.

"You know what, let's just sle—" I was about to stand when she pulled me towards her. "Anong ginagawa mo?"

"Lets do it."

I automatically shrugged my head giving her a sign that I won't take her virginity, "No, I can't."

"Bakit?" pag-aangal niya ngunit tanging pag-yuko lang nagawa ko. "Dahil ba, hindi pa tayo kasal?"

"I guess," I said. "So please let's sleep okay?"

I saw her rolled her eyes and heard her sigh, Yes- I mean no. I can't stand seeing her like that but bro malaki respeto ko sakanya.

Later that day, I texted her for about five times so that I can assure that she's okay. I also talked to her friend to keep her safe lalo na't ang daring niyang manuot at wala ako sa tabi niya.

"Dude wala ka ba talagang balak mag propose sakanya? I mean you both been together for about a year now," my friend asked and I just give him a sigh. "You better make a decision dude, ASAP."

"I don't know, But in some point parang hindi pa'ko handa sa buhay may asawa, I know na matanda na tayo pero there's a part of me na parang I don't even deserve her." i explained and exhaled heavily.

I just saw my friend shrugged his shoulder, "Pag-isipan mo ng mabuti and you only have minimum chances from her Ulysses, lalo na't you can't give her what she want."

"It doesn't make sense dude, to be honest I have a lot of respect towards her max at hindi lang ganon kadali sakin na kunin pagkababae niya. Well easy for you to say dahil womanizer ka," pagbibiro ko sakanya at nakita ko naman siya sumimangot, lul." Just kidding bro, so ano? G kaba mamaya sa gym?"

"Hindi ata dude," sagot niya. "May meeting ako mamaya, tsaka sundoin ko pa kapated ko sa LaSalle."

"I see, sige yung kambal nalang aayain ko mamaya. Alis na'ko max, ingat ka."

Seryoso akong nagmamaneho ng sasakyan papuntang gym kasama ang magkambal na busy kakakulikot ng phone nila sa likod nang bigla akong napahinto sa gilid ng kalsada.

"No, hindi siya yan," bulong ko sarili ko nang makita ang isang pamilyar na pigura ng babae naglalakad habang may kasamang lalaki. "Hindi, maari! Hindi niya magagawa sakin yon."

"Ah kuys ayos lang ba tayo?" tanong ni Kai na kanina lang busy kakacellphone pero ngayon nagugulohan. "Ba't tayo napahinto?"

"Galunggong, nasa tapat na tayo ng gym hangal HAHA." saad nung kakambal niya habang tawa ng tawa, kahit ako ngayon ko lang napansin na sakto ang paghinto ko ng sasakyan.

Umulit nanaman sa utak ko ang sinabi ni Max kanina sa café shop, "Pag-isipan mo ng mabuti and you only have minimum chances from her Ulysses, lalo na't you can't give her what she want."

This is ridiculous! Potanginang tukso, I can't!

"Kai at Zai mauna na kayo sa gym," saad ko at sabay naman kumunot noo nila, magkambal nga. "May nakalimutan lang ako sa Condo, babalik din kaagad ako."

Pinaharorot ko ang sasakyan patungong condo, damn it please tell me hindi siya 'yon.

God damn it! Bakit naka lock ang pinto?

"Kuya excuse me, may nakita po ba kayong pumasok dito?" i asked ngunit tanging pag kibit balikat lang ang ginawa niya, "Ah sige po kuya thankyou."

I checked my gym bag nagbabasakali na andon ang card para makaaccess sa room ko and Thank God, nadala ko.

Papasok na sana ako sa may salas when i hear moans galing sa kwarto ko? I immediately check it and halos manlumo kaluluwa ko sa nakita ko.

"J-jane," nauutal kong sambit halos hindi ako makapaniwala na nagawa niya sakin 'to. "A-anong ibig-sabihin n-nito?"

I saw her kiss the guy before facing me. "Sex obviously, nakikita mo naman diba."

"I don't need to explain my side, kasi ilang beses na kitang inaya pero yet you declined it," she said as i saw the guy smirk. "Well you can now leave, wala ka nang mapapala sakin and this guy? This guys owned ny body hindi na ikaw kaya kung pwede ba? Umalis kana?"

Tulala akong lumabas at nagtungo sa gym kung saan kanina pa pala naghihintay ang magkambal sakin don.

I guess max was right, kahit anong respeto mo sakanya kung ayaw mo ibigay ang kanyang gusto she will find a way para mafulfill yon and I was stupid or maybe not kasi in the first place I was doing it for the sake of her life, her body, her virginity.

I can't even think twice, minahal niya ba talaga ako or nagmamahalan mahalan lang tayo? Damn it! After all those year nagpakatotoo ako sakanya kasi hays i don't want to touch her until we both have a ring in our finger at naiharap ko siya sa Altar, sa harap ng Diyos.

Pero she still choose to have sex with someone who fulfilled her sexual desire. And i can't do anything about it, someone owned her now.
