Chapter 87: Show Me

Supposedly, I should be in Tagaytay today for my client's wedding but I ended up spending the whole day here in my flat na nakahiga lang sa sofa. I haven't eaten anything because I am just too tired to stand up and cook. Nilalagnat din kasi ako.

Damn, I didn't know that having rough sex can make you sick. Akala ko joke lang yung sinabi ni Trina nun that she literally can't stand up for a couple of days after she try it with Russel the first time.

My whole body is still aching especially the thing between my legs. Tawag nga nang tawag sa'kin sina Wayne, Terence, at Kurt but I never answered though I texted them that I am okay. I just want to rest for the whole day to regain my energy.

I pulled the blanket to my face and shut my eyes tightly. Kanina ko pa gustong-gusto makatulog because I am not liking the memories intruding in my mind. Even with my eyes closed I can still see Blaise's face clearly and how I moaned his name under him. Sa tingin ko nga ay gustong-gusto niya ang ginagawa ko na yun kagabi because whenever I say his name, ngumingiti siya at mas lalo niyang idinidiin ang sarili niya sa'kin.

Kinakapa ko sa puso ko kung mayroon ba akong pagsisisi na nararamdaman pero wala. Because who am I fooling? Mahal na mahal ko pa rin siya. At isang katotohanan yun na hindi na magbabago.

Sa mga nagdaang taon, maraming nanligaw sa'kin pero wala akong sinagot o pinagbigyan man lang. I reserved myself for him kahit na nga ba walang kasiguraduhan nun na babalik pa siya at tatanggapin ako. Even after I saw him at the bar back then, walang nagbago. He's a losing bet that I am still willing to play.

So I know after all that it was all worth it even if he treated me like shit last night. Anyway, I deserve it. I deserve it for the pain I caused him many years ago.

Nagising ako dahil sa sunod-sunod na katok sa pintuan ko. When I looked at my wall clock it says that it's already three in the afternoon.

I lazily get up. Hindi na ako nag-abala na sumilip sa bintana kung sino ang kumakatok since it could just be the three o si Captain.

Pagbukas ko ng pintuan at makita kung sino ang tao, pakiramdam ko ay binuhusan ako nang napakalamig na tubig dahil pakiramdam ko ay nawala ang antok ko.

He just smirked then walked passed me. Napansin ko na mayroon siyang dalang paperbag at dire-diretso siyang lumakad papunta sa kusina. Agad kong isinara ang pinto at sinundan siya.

"Anong ginagawa mo rito?" tanong ko pero hindi niya ako pinansin. Abala siya sa paglalabas nung mga pinamili niya mula sa paperbag.

"Tumatanggap ka ng bisita na ganyan lang ang suot? Sana naghubad ka na lang" he asked quietly at pinasadahan ako ng tingin. I am just wearing a pink pajama and a white sando na manipis. Wala akong bra kaya bakat ang dibdib ko.

Nanatili ang tingin niya sa dibdib ko. My eyes widened when I felt my nipples hardened. I casually crossed my arms para hindi niya yun mahalata.

"Anong ginagawa mo rito at paano mo nalaman na rito ako nakatira?" I just asked instead.

"Pumunta ako sa flower shop mo kanina and your secretary said that you called in sick. I called Wayne to ask your address at ibinigay naman niya sa'kin. He told me to cook something for you dahil kapag maysakit ka hindi ka kumakain" seryoso niyang sabi as he started beating the eggs with cheese and salt.

I swallowed hard as I don't know what to tell him. Gusto ko siyang itaboy na hindi.

"Does it still hurt?" he asked eventually without looking at me.

"Ang alin?" tanong ko pabalik

"You know what I am referring to" sagot niya na may pilyong ngiti sa mga labi.
