Favorite Oblivion

Chapter III

I WAS awakened by a suppressed shriek. As I opened my eyes, I found myself inside my room which I wondered how.

I tried remembering things but as soon as I visualized a woman in my head, my brain almost drained. I stopped thinking for a while as I massaged my temple.

"Paanong—"

Napatigil ako sa sasabihin at nanlaki ang mga mata nang makarinig ako ng boses ng babae sa labas. Nang mabuksan niya na ang pinto ng kwarto ko, wala na akong nagawa kung hindi magpanggap na tulog.

Yes, I should have confronted her but still, I wanted to know her motive so I remained calm and observant.

"Lalalah... Lalalala!" Out of curiosity, I slightly opened my right eye to check who's that person. At sa ginawa kong 'yon, mabilis ulit akong napapikit saglit pero binigyan ko ng second look and kabuoan ng babaeng tumambad sa harap ng salamin.

Napalunok ako. I never thought I will find a sand skined person as sexy. Madalas akong makaramdam ng pagkainit sa mga mapuputi pero sa kaniya, hindi ko na kinailangan pang linawan ang mga mata ko para makita ang bawat sulok ng katawan niya. Her boobs were like cup C. Flat ang tiyan, walang umbok sa puson, maliit ang baiwang, may kalakihan ang likod niya, maganda ang hugis ng hita hanggang paa ang kakinisan. Wala siyang suot kung hindi ang hapit na undergarments at hapit na sando na natatakpan ang kabuoan ng puwetan.

Hot.

Something in me was growing and I wanted to do something about it. But how?

Frustrating.

Kulang na lang dumugo na ang ilong ko sa paggalaw ng baiwang niya. Sa bawat pihit ng katawan niya, may kung anong kumikislot din sa 'kin.

I bit my lips when she started to caress her body. From her weak shoulders. To her flawless arms. Then to her hips. Slightly bowed to do the same on her upper legs. It allowed me to see a better view of her.

Shit.

I gulped. I was about to move my hand when she spoke...

"Kanina ka pa gising? Kain na tayo. Nagluto ako."

I gulped once more. Muntik na 'yon. I sat up on the bed and wiped my cold sweats. Wala akong nagawa kung hindi tumayo na lang at sundan ang babaeng kinausap ako kanina. Hindi man lang ako nakapagtanong. She's in my house and I should be alone preparing my own food.

I checked myself and I saw that I was changed, wearing different undergarment and pajamas. Wala akong pang-itaas kaya napakunot-noo ako. I usually wore shirts when sleeping. Was she up on something?

I shrugged my shoulders. Inalis ko sa isip ko ang bagay na parang imposible namang mangyari. I fixed my bed and made myself ready before I walked out of my room. I passed through the hallway, checked the receiving area, walked through the kitchen until I saw her preparing the table set up outside.

I slid the glass door and faced her. "How did you manage to open the automatic wall partitions?" Nakataas ang kilay ko habang malinaw na wala na ang translucent glass walls na bihira ko lang buksan kahit umaga.

"Para fresh air," katwiran niya habang nakangiti at ipinagpapatuloy ang paglagay ng mga plato at kubyertos sa mesa.

I checked the set up and nodded. "Okay na sana... kung hindi mo lang sinunog yung mga pagkain. Fried day na fried day, ha?" Ngumisi ako sa kaniya.
