INTERPLAY
Chapter 8
He’s been looking at his phone for the past four hours, and there’s still no message from Emiliana. He decided to go to the hospital and visit Hannah instead because his mind keeps on swirling back to Emiliana and the kisses they shared last night.
“Wow, your gift is way better than the others.” Saad ni Tom nang makita ang malaking basket na dala niya.
“Thank you, Wesley.” Si Hannah iyon at nakangiti sa kanya.
“You’re welcome.”
“Who helped you with these? A woman?” Tanong ni Tom.
“No one.” Tanggi niya.
“Mia?” Tanong nito at nakangisi sa kanya.
“What? No.” Tanggi niya ulit.
“Hmm, really?” Makahalugang sagot nito, with a mischievous grin plastered on his face.
Damn Thomas.
“Yes, now let me see your baby.” Pagbabago niya na lamang sa usapan.
And there is another baby that looks like Tom.

Palabas na siya ng ospital nang mag vibrate ang cellphone niya.
“Meet me at Mandarin Oriental. I’m already on my way.”
Mandarin Oriental hotel? Now? Whew, damn, seems like we’re going to do it in the middle of the afternoon.
Mabilis siyang sumakay sa sasakyan niya at pinasibad iyon papunta sa nasabing hotel.
Nakita niya kaagad si Mia na nakaupo sa lobby. Halatang hinihintay siya nito. Pero nang makita siya ni Mia ay tumayo itong kaagad. Lumakad ito sa papunta sa elevator at sumunod naman siya.
Damn, her ass looks so delicious in that black fitted skirt.
Nang sumakay sila sa lift ay may kasabay silang ibang tao kaya’t hindi sila nag palitan ng kahit anong salita. Hindi ito tumitingin sa kanya pero siya ay panay ang sulyap dito.
Sumunod lamang siya rito hanggang sa huminto ito sa harap ng pinto.
When she opened the door, he didn’t even think. He kicked the door close, pushed her up against the wall and started kissing her. He made her wrap her legs around his waist.
“Attorney …” She panted when he let go of her lips. He buried his head on the side of her neck and ingrained some wet kisses there.
“I want to ravish you so bad but you said you haven’t done this before so I’m going to slow down.”
He walked to the bed while carrying her. He gently placed her in the middle of the huge bed as he loomed over her. Trapping her between his arms and his legs.
“So, I know we’re only hooking up but I’m curious. Last night you said you haven’t slept with anyone else. You were married. How come?” Tanong niya. Bahagya siyang itinulak ni Emiliana para humiga siya sa kama.
Bumaling ito sa kanya at huminga ng malalim.
“We never shared a house, and never shared a bed. We married each other for money. I used the money so I can have my very own gallery.”
“Where did the money came from?”
“My grandfather and his. Look, the story is cliché and banal and I’ll tell you about it next time, but right now can we go back to business? You were saying that you want to ravish me. Isn’t that right, Attorney?”
