" I told you can't run away, from me."
Bulong sa kanyang tenga, habang mag isa siyang umiinom sa isang high-end bar. Hindi niya inaasahan ang pagkikita nilang muli, at kilala pa pala siya nito.
" What do you want?"
Tanong niya dito na tumabi sa kanya sa mataas na stool at humingi din nang inumin sa bartender.
" I want you."
Deritso nitong sagot sa kanya. Na kinunutan niya nang noo.
" Aren't you're married?"
Baling niya dito, umangat ang labi nito sa mapang uyam na ngiti.
" So, you knew me all along."
"No! It's just a game, truth and dare game, Mr. Frias. And I was dared to strip as a gift on your stag party."
Sabi niya dito, sana tigilan na siya nito dahil sa truth and dare game na iyon.
" It's José Luis, Ava. And that dare game of yours put me in this terrible mess. That gave me nightmares."
Kinunutan niya ito ng noo. Hindi niya ito naintindihan.
" I'm supposed to get married the next morning, but you drugged me. I was late, too late my fiancé can't stand the shame. Thought I stand her off, she killed herself. On her wedding gown, she shot herself."
Sinasabi nito iyon na hindi umalis ang mga mata sa kanya. Nakatiim ang bagang nito.Mahigpit ang hawak sa baso nang cognac.
" Oh, God!"
Napahawak siya sa kanyang dibdib. She can sleep 12 hours straight with those sleeping pills. And she put two tablets on his wine.
" You see what you did to me, Ava. I will not just let you off!"
Naiiyak siya sa nalaman. Hindi niya gugustuhin na mangyari iyon.
" I'm so sorry, do you think I want that to happen?"
" Why you have to drug me? Where we can just do it, and go?"
Umiling iling siya at napaiyak nang tuluyan.
" Because I'm not a stripper to do that in the first place. Second, I don't know you to have sex with you."
" After what you did, I gladly have sex with a whore. By then I'm sure I'm fucking a human being."
Madiin nitong sabi sa kanya, hindi nito kinaya ang akusa sa kanya.
" I'm so sorry Mr. Frias. I swear I regretted what I did."
Nag maka awa siya dito sa nagawa niya. At hindi kaya nang konsensiya niya.
" Do you know why we're getting married?"
Umiling iling siya habang hilam sa luha.
" She's pregnant, Ava."
Muntik na siyang mahulog sa upuan sa narinig.Nasalo lang siya nito.
" This is is not the best place to talk."
Inalalayan siya nito at lumabas sila nang bar.
Hindi na niya pansin pero sa mismong sasakyan siya dinala nito.
