Scandalous Affair: Oliver Valez

The sun is still not around, but the darkness above is fighting with the light. As seconds passed, I realized that they are not fighting, they are interacting with each other. This is the only time that they'll be able to do that, the chilly breeze at dawn made my naked body shiver underneath the blanket.

I heard the sound of crumbling sheets caused by the man sleeping beside me. I faced sideways, making me look at his sleeping face directly. His face look really gorgeous, especially when he's peacefully sleeping. His face always has that sharp look, making him a dangerous-looking man. His uncleaned, thick eyebrows, long lashes, proud nose, and that devilish sexy lips look so perfect on him.

Jeez, I don't know if God made him or he's one of the Gods. I'm sure it's the latter. His jet black hair was almost reaching his eyebrows. I think it grew when he stayed at the hospital while taking care of me. Malalim ang paghinga niya at ang matipunong dibdib nito ay nagtataas-baba kasabay ng kaniyang paghinga. Mayroon din itong medyo nangingngitim sa ilalim ng kaniyang mata, tanda na ito ay pagod at puyat.

Paano ba naman kasi, mag-aapat na araw pa lamang mula nang umuwi kami galing sa hospital. Alam ko namang busy siya sa trabaho dahil natambakan siya ng mga gawain. Kahit naman sabihin nating ipinapadala niya sa hospital ang mga files ay kulang pa rin iyon. Ako rin naman ay natambakan din ng mga gawain. Aasikasuhin ko pa ang malapit nang magbukas na restuarant ko, pati na rin ang condo unit kong patapos nang gawin.

Pero ito kaming dalawa at magkatabi sa iisang kama. Kahit gaano ka-busy at kapagod ay nagawa pa rin naming dalawa ang mga kasalanang susunog sa'min sa impyerno. Oo, aware akong kasalanan ang gustuhin ang isang Oliver Valez na tatay ng aking best friend. Mulat na mulat ako sa mga kasalanang ginagawa naming dalawa, pero hindi yata gumagana ang utak ko dahil kahit anong sigaw nito na h'wag ay patuloy pa rin ako.

He moved closer to me, entangling our body, making the cold breeze go away. His strong, muscular arms and legs wrapped around my body. His warm body was making not just my body warm, but also my heart. I don't know what's with him, but his touches and hugs made me feel secure. I had never felt this, sa tagal ko nang nabubuhay sa mundong ibabaw ay ngayon ko lang ito naramdaman.

Nakakaawa ba? Nah, I don't think so. The pain I felt from the past doesn't matter right now. All I cared for was my current life with Oliver, I'm still lucky to meet all the people who cares deeply and truly for me. I don't want to trap myself from the past, I need to move forward and prove to my family that I can make it. A smile made it way to my lips, making my morning better than all the other. I didn't know that waking up beside Oliver Valez will make me this happy and contented.

It's almost five in the morning, ilang minuto ko na bang tinitingnan si Oliver na matulog? Hindi ko alam, siguro ay talagang nalibang ako kakatitig sa kaniya at hindi ko na napansin ang oras. He needs to wake up at lumipat sa kaniyang kwarto dahil mayayari kaming dalawa 'pag may nakakita sa kaniyang lumabas mula rito. Isa pa ay kailangan na rin naming dalawa na kumilos dahil papasok pa siya sa trabaho habang ako naman ay pupuntahan ang restaurant ko.

Wala si Olivia ngayon dahil nasa isa itong seminar para sa kanilang business. Ang alam ko ay dalawang araw ang seminar na 'yon at sa Tagaytay ito ginanap. Imbis na mag-uwian ay nag-hotel na lamang ito para daw mabawasan ang pagod nito. Kaya malakas ang loob naming dalawa ni Oliver ngayon dahil nasosolo namin ang mansion. Nakahiwalay naman kasi kahit papaano ang maid's quarter.

I put my hand on Oliver's sharp, symmetrical jaw, making him stir from slumber. He slowly opened his eyes. Gorgeous, black, onyx eyes greeted me a good morning. He still looked sleepy, but his aura was light. He blinked twice, adjusting his eyes to the light that was coming from the sun, now setting above the sky.
