I knew him.
Yes, past tense. Sabagay, who wouldn't? Gavin Mateo is the famous point guard of our University basketball team and probably the best looking sa varsity.
But there's more to it.
I knew him because he used to be my Lab partner in Chemistry. Usually he would come to class wearing his headset while waiting for our prof and I assumed it was because ayaw niyang maki-mingle sa gaya naming mga ordinary students. He seemed to be so full of himself and hardly make friends.
But later on I came to really know him. Hindi pala siya masyadong suplado, hindi rin sobrang masungit. Medyo lang. There were even times when he laughed at my corny jokes. And as we became closer, I noticed him wearing his headset less and less until it was totally gone.
He was my friend. Or so I thought.
After just one unintentional mistake, he suddenly changed. The next thing I knew, he was back to his old cold self. His guard was up. Even his headset was back. And he never talked to me again after that.
Until now.
It's been two years. Am I hallucinating? Is he really in front of me, piercing me with his Zac Efron eyes and saying something I never knew I would ever hear from anyone?
"I need you, Syndell Grace."

R-21 MATURE CONTENT Wonderland Series #5 .... I used to be a chase fiend kinda girl. May it be hobbies, work, friends, sex...madali akong magsawa. They said na sadya raw akong maarte at matigas ang ulo,kaya kaunting inconvenience ay kaagad na akong umaayaw. Umaalis. Lumilipat. Permanence was never in my vocabulary. At bakit naman ako magtityagang mag-adjust kung marami namang pagpipilian? Choices that were much better, easier and pleasurable? It was not my fault that men mistake my red flags to be their butterflies. At bakit ko kailangang mag explain? Were they the ones walking with my skin on and enjoying every waking moment of my life? Hindi naman so, no. I could care less. Well that was my mindset then, for the second I stepped inside Wonderland? I came face to face with the truth: that I was alone. That no matter how much I ran, I was and always would...run in circles. And I was...alone. Simple as that. The epiphany led me to start changing my goals in life, that was, if I even had any. I denounced my old lifestyle, started practicing self control and landed a job that I believed I would actually like for a long term. But it was hard, alright. It got even harder when my work assigned me to one Javier Aragon. That man...god...who introduced me to Wonderland. He brought out all kinds of desperation in me lalo pa at alam kong wala naman siyang interes sa akin maliban sa mainit na bagay sa gitna ng mga hita ko. And I hated that.

MY GIRLFRIEND FOR HIRE!
"enjoying the view?" Gulat akong napatingin sa pinanggalingan ng tinig na iyon. Then I saw Faris Rein Cervantes standing near me, quietly watching me while her hands are on her pant suits pocket, wearing her business attire, looking at me with her unreadable eyes. "Glad you came with my secretary here. Did she excuse you to your class?" She continue asking. "I don't know why I need to be here." I said confusedly instead of answering her. "I thought we're okay now? Na bayad na ako sa nagawa ko sayo?" Tumango ito bilang sagot bago humakbang patungo sa upuan na katapat lang ng sofa na inuupuan ko at umupo rin doon. "B-bakit mo pa ako hinahanap?" Matagal itong hindi sumagot at seryosong nakatitig lang sa aking mga mata na ginantihan ko naman ng nagtatanong na tingin. Ilang sandali pa ang lumipas bago ito nagsalita. "Because I need you." Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa sinabi nito. Matapos ay natulala lang ako dito while still processing on my mind what she mean by that. "I still need you to act as my girlfriend." Pagpapatuloy nito. "Let's continue pretending, Miss Fontejar." Tuluyan na akong napatanga sa kanya. Oh my goshhh... What is happening to the earth???! I know that she's open to the public about her sexuality. Pero hindi kaya nababaliw na siya?? Who would be crazy to believe that a cheerleader STUDENT like me will be the girlfriend of as goddess as FARIS CERVANTES??! The famous young billionaire!

FOR CLARITY: THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH HYPNOSIS, THAT IS WHY OUR LEAD CHARACTER HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING BEING CONTROLLED AND MANIPULATED. "G-greg, listen to me. You can still fix this, you can still be healed." I said while I touched his face, I was caressing his right cheek with my thumb. But, to my surprise, he went down from the bed and turned his back away from me and asked "Do you love me?" He said with a monotone voice, the quick transition scared me, from being hopeful to being dominant. I was shocked from his question, tila napipi ako at hindi alam kung ano ang isasagot sa katanungang iyon. "I said, Do.You.Love.Me" he said it again for the second time, though he was facing at the window, you can tell that he's furious because hes gritting his teeth. "Ha! Got it! You dont love me!!! You are giving me hope, for you to escape me right?! I wont fall for that my beloved Veronica. Im not fucked in the head, I know your weakness, I know your softest spot and I know how I can lure you. You will stay here with me, forever. No one's gonna meddle our love story. Even God, I say you start learning to love me back, coz theres no way Im letting you slip, ever again." He stood up at hinawakan niya ng marahas yung panga ko gamit ang kanyang kaliwang kamay, napakasakit, parang dinudurog ang aking buto, I held his hand na naka hawak sa aking panga and I was trying to pull it out, my tears were non-stop. "Your body, your mind and soul are mine. I own you and no one else." He pinched my earlobe and sucked my neck, he then let go. Suddenly, warmth and pleasure enveloped my body, I wanted to be touched, I wanted to release this warmth away from my body, these are my demons. He knew my vulnerable spot. ----------------------------------------------- WARNING: Read at your own risk, this story contains, explicit scenes and vulgar words that are not suitable for young audiences.
