The Replacement
Miyuki
"I think I like him." sabi ni Yumi.
We are in our room, doing our own businesses. Yumi has many suitors. Although we are twins, we're very different in terms of personality.
"Who?" I asked her.
Kung may gusto man akong wag niyang magustuhan, si Patrick yun.
"Si Ethan..."
I'm glad and felt relieved.
"Well, I like him for you too. He's a good guy." I told her and smiled.
"R-really? Do you think Mom and Dad will like him for me too?" she asked me.
"Oo naman. Ethan is the only one na may lakas ng loob to introduce himself to them as your suitor. Dad and Mom approves of him." I assured her.
Unlike sa iba niyang manliligaw, Ethan is a man.
"Thanks. How about you, Yuki? Wala ba talagang nanliligaw sayo?"
I snorted at her question.
"Ikaw unang makaka-alam kung meron." sagot ko.
We are almost look alikes. But I have a small mole near my left eye and my hair is short. Pero pag natakpan ang nunal ko at nagsuot ako ng wig, we are like looking in our own reflection without a mirror.
And as I've mentioned earlier, we have different personalities. Yumi is friendlier and she's such a sunshine while I'm aloof. She likes dresses and cute stuffs, I'm more on oversized shirts. Mahilig siya sa make-up and I don't like those stuffs. So guys don't really go after me.
She's pouting.
"But why? We are both beautiful..." she asked again.
"You know, it's no big deal." I told her.
"Eeh, kahit crush ba wala ka?"
I paused at her question, then answered, "Ikaw unang makaka-alam kapag meron na."
"Hmp. I'm planning on making Ethan my boyfriend tomorrow."
I smiled at her. "Good luck on your love life."
"Hmp. We're twenty already Yuki. You should have a crush by now! Are you lesbian?"
"Maybe? Hehe." I answered her.
"Ewan ko nga sayo. Kung lesbian ka, I still love you but please, don't be one. Boys will be disappointed!"
Natawa na lang ako sa kanya.
Tinatanggal niya na yung mask sa mukha niya.
"Good night sis. Stop reading and get some sleep. Mamaya, magkapimple ka!" she warned me and lied on her bed.
"Yeah, yeah. Good night."
I finished another chapter and also went to sleep. I hope her love life goes smoothly.
Nasa tagong part ako ng library para magbasa. Yumi is with her boyfriend, doing lovey dovey stuffs somewhere out there. As I've mentioned before, I'm introverted. I would like to spend my time reading than talking with people.
"Ano 'pre? Talo tayo sa pustahan nating dalawa. May boyfriend na si Yumi at di ka na makaka-score..."
I heard someone whisper. If that's a whisper. At pinag-uusapan nila ang twin sister ko?
"Tsk. Fine. But I will have a taste of her. I will f*ck her, no matter what it takes."
I recognize that voice. Patrick!
"Eh paano? Mukhang hindi naman yun interesado sayo..."
"Easy, I can drug her and then f*ck her."
Is he planning something bad with my sister!? How dare he!?
I need to confront him! Nasa kabila lang sila ng shelf na ito kaya rinig na rinig ko ang kagaguhan nila. Napatayo ako at agad na pumunta sa pwesto nila. Dalawa lang sila ng kaibigan niyang si Charles, which I remember na manliligaw rin ni Yumi!
My hands turned into a fist. They think that my twin sister is a game that they can put their bets on!
"Tsk, Miss, don't you know that it's bad to eavesdrop."
I looked at him. My eyes are burning with fury right now after everything I've heard.
"Ooh, feisty."
I rolled my eyes and walked. I went straight to them.
"Miyuki Harper."
"It sounds bad coming from your mouth, Patrick."
"Pare, mauna na ako." saad ni Charles at nagmamadaling umalis.
Patrick is the university's famous playboy but I don't even care. I grabbed his shirt and looked straight into his eyes. I glared at him, my deadliest one.
"Don't lay a finger on my twin sister." I told him, my voice is filled with authority.
"Hmm? Then who's going to satisfy me, Yuki?" he said huskily and held my hands.
Binitawan ko siya and I stepped back but he grabbed my wrist. Our bodies met, he's so near. He's caressing my hair, I can feel his hot breathe in my ears.
"If you don't want me touching your beautiful sister, are you willing to be her replacement?"
I close my eyes and pushed him away. I don't even know kung saan napunta lahat ng tapang ko kanina.
"Titigilan mo ba siya? You won't harm her?" I asked him, looking at his eyes for assurance.
"Of course. You can trust me." he casually said and smirked.
"Fine." I agreed. "Tell me when and where."
Fuck. What did I get myself into?
We exchanged contacts. But I'm hoping he won't contact me at all. But if he won't, then he's still after Yumi. Based on rumors I've heard, Patrick won't stop until he catches his prey. And I can't let him have Yumi. I will protect Yumi...
"Hey, sis, let's go. Ihahatid tayo ni Ethan."
Bumalik lang ako sa katotohanan nang kausapin niya ako. My thoughts are filled of his plans, I'm spacing out.
"Mauna na kayo. May gagawin pa ako."
"And what is that? May date ka ba?" nanunuksong tanong niya.
"No. May kailangan lang talaga akong gawin..." pagdadahilan ko.
"Fine. Are you gonna be home for dinner? If not, Ethan and I will just eat outside."
"Go have your date. Baka nga ma-late ako ng uwi but I'll shoot you a message."
"OK. Bye~~"
"Take care ha."
We kissed each other's cheeks then umalis na siya. I heaved a sigh.
Time to take care of the devil. I-memessage ko na sana siya when his message arrived.
From Devil: Parking lot. 5 PM.
I didn't reply. I fixed my things and went straight to the parking lot.
We are going to his place. Hindi ako tanga. This guy only wants sex. And I can't let him have Yumi because Yumi is in love with Ethan. And Patrick, is a dangerous and a sly one.
"You're a man of your words, right?" I suddenly asked him. I don't know why I'm even having a deal with him.
"Yes, and why'd you ask?"
"Dunno. Assurance? I mean, I love my sister, Patrick. I can't let you hurt her... You told me that you won't do anything to her if I agreed to be her replacement for your sexual desires." I answered.
He chuckled. "Hmm, if you can satisfy me Yuki, I won't lay a finger on your pretty sister."
How can I satisfy this guy when I don't even have any experience in sex!? I should be nervous right now. But why I am remaining calm?
"Don't worry Harper. My parents are out. You can scream my name loudly later."
I stared a his smirking face. Just how arrogant is he? I ignored him and texted Yumi that I may come home late.
We ate dinner at his home. And then, we went straight to his room. He even told their maids to not disturb us!
"Do you want to take a shower first or do you want me to fuck you in the shower?" he asked casually, like he's used to this. Bringing home girls and fucking them in his own room.
"I want to take a shower, alone." I told him and opened the door to his bathroom.
May towel na sa loob. And it smells like him. So, this is his place. Just how many girls did he brought here? I removed my clothes and turned on the shower. I let the water pour over my body and grabbed the soap.
Is this really fine? Is it fine for me to give myself? I wanted to keep his hands off my twin sister. But replacing her.. Is it really the answer? I know, she won't even let Patrick have her... But Patrick is a sly fox. I just know he will do everything to have her. Because that's what he is.
