Chapter 14

I sighed when I saw Keiko and Zhavia waiting for me outside our classroom. Lumabas na ang prof at ako ay abala pa sa pag-aayos ng gamit. Zhavia smiled at me but Keiko's face remained blank.

"I still couldn't get over to what I saw that night! You and Vance, really? How come?" Zhavia told me immediately. Naglalakad kami sa Cicero Hall at nagdiretso sa bench sa labas.

"It was an unexpected encounter, Zhavia. Believe, I didn't know Vance when I saw him for the first time."

"Really?" Her eyes turned into slits but nodded eventually. "Sabagay, you don't party that much kasi."

Tumango ako at umupo sa bench. The two sat in front of me but Keiko still remained silent.

"We were just shocked kasi Vance is kinda out of touch. I mean, not literally, ha? It's just that a lot of girls like him pero pili pa rin ang pinapatulan," she laughed. "You know, Keiko likes the guy pero ilang beses na niyang nilandi ay hindi pa rin kumakagat ang mokong. Nakakagulat lang talaga."

I cleared my throat and looked at Keiko. "As I've said, I'm not familiar to him until I met him months ago. Hindi ko rin alam na... na gusto pala siya ni Keiko."

Tumawa ulit si Zhavia. She even waved her hands in the air.

"Ano ka ba, ayos lang iyon! Naaawa lang ako kay Keiko na kahit yata maghubad sa harapan ni Vance, hindi pa rin siya papansinin."

Sinamaan siya ng tingin ni Keiko kaya natigil sa pagsasalita si Zhavia. She cleared her throat and smiled awkwardly. Well, that was an offensive joke.

"But that's okay, Maeve. Sanay naman ako kay Vance na maraming babae. In just no time, wala na rin kayo kapag nagsawa na siya," Keiko smirked like it was really nothing.

Napanguso ako at unti-unting tumango. "Vance and I were just friends. Kung ano man meron sa 'min, kayang-kaya kong pakawalan iyon dahil in the first place, wala naman talaga."

"Really, huh? The way he touches you that night already speaks volume," she smiled sarcastically. "Knowing Vance, he wouldn't stick to someone without getting what he wants. He likes to play, Maeve."

Pinilig ko ang ulo ko, hindi na nagugustuhan ang takbo ng pag-uusap.

"Sino ang tatanggi sa ideyang nasa ilalim niya at nasa taas siya habang tagaktak ang pawis? Most of the girls that know him like that idea. They fantasize Vance doing them," she added.

I sighed and pursed my lips. I looked at her directly in her eyes as I was trying to read her actions. What does she want?

"Hindi ko maintindihan kung ano gusto mong iparating, Keiko."

"Wala, Maeve," she smiled. "I was just carried away pero payong kaibigan lang... don't trust him that much. Ikaw rin, baka umiyak ka lang sa huli."

"It's not what you think it is, Keiko," sambit ko at kinuha ang bag. "Mauna na ako," paalam ko at naglakad na palayo sa kanila.

I was clutching my chest so bad as I closed the cubicle door. Naupo ako sa nakasaradong toilet at pilit na kinalma ang sarili. I get her point. Kung ano man ang mayroon sa amin ngayon ni Vance ay masyadong mabilis. I immediately gave myself to him nang hindi nag-iisip. I let myself being controlled by lust. Naging mapusok ako at bumigay kaagad.

Lumabas ako ng cubicle at naghilamos. I looked myself in the mirror... thinking that I'm not pure anymore. Ilang beses pa akong humugot ng malalalim na hininga bago nagpasyang lumabas.

What happened to us that day, I will never regret it. I gave him my consent. Ginusto ko rin iyon at pumayag ako sa kanya nang buo-buo. It was done and thinking about it over and over again would only mean of giving myself a headache. Tapos na iyon at hindi ko na dapat balikan pa.
