Chapter 13

WARNING: SPG (VIP)

"Yes Mom. I will. Kuya Ram will be with me. Opo. Thanks." The line went dead. My mommy called to remind me about being responsible. She asked me not to take any drink from anyone because there were lots of girls that get raped from being drugged.

I knew about that kaya I assured her. Nang huminto ang sasakyan ko sa exclusive bar na pagdarausan ng party ay bumaba na ako. Kuya Ram was instantly behind me.

I looked around and got blinded when I got inside and the dancing neon lights hit my eyes. Napakurap ako at halos mapangiwi sa amoy. It was suffocating. The cigarette smokes, mixed perfumes and even body odour were mixed in the air. Tapos aircon pa so talagang nakakahilo ang amoy.

Parang gusto ko na tuloy umatras.

"Attagirl!" Katie and Olivia jumped in front of me. Nagulat ako at napahiyaw. They just laughed at me.

I held my chest and tried to relax. "Too stiff Missy. You should enjoy the party. Why don't we get you to the host to have a chat." Masiglang sabi nila then they furrowed their eyebrows when they saw Kuya Ram behind me.

"Girl, hanggang dito kasama mo yan? Bakit hindi mo na lang sabihan na maghintay sa kotse? Mabo bored lang yan!" Katie said. Napailing ako.

"Mommy's condition is to have Kuya with me. So kung ayaw nyo, maybe I should better go home na lang." sabi ko sabay tangkang talikod. They grabbed my arms quickly.

"Okay fine.. pero kapag nasa VIP na tayo, sa labas na lang siya ah." Sabi ni Katie and eyed Kuya Ram. Napatango na lang ako.

The VIP room was for Patrick's close friends. Girl and boys were gathered there. Isang beses nang nakapunta sa VIP si Olivia at sobra daw siyang nag enjoy dahil maraming gwapo. But she never went to details. Kaya nong ininvite ako ni Patrick through them and he promised them to be with me in the VIP ay pumayag sila.

Mag eenjoy daw ako.

I walked and we got stopped from time to time to have a chat with other guests. Halatang mayaman ang host dahil bigatin din ang mga tao. Some were even daughters and sons of senators and well known celebrities.

Nagpaakay ako sa mga kasama ko. Kuya Ram never left my side.

Huminto kami sa pabilog na couch at nagsitayuan ang mga boys. They all looked like celebrities. Gwapo and macho. Tall and playboy type. The most handsome guy came to me and held my hand for a kiss. Napahiyaw ang mga nakapabilog sa amin.

"Patrick at your service Miss Monteverde."he suavely said.

Napangiti ako ng maliit. Bigla akong kinabahan na ewan pero winalang bahala ko nalang. It was my first time kaya siguro ganon.

The boys queued up to introduce themselves. Mukha silang playboy pero okay naman. They went back to their seats and Katie and Olivia pulled me to sit with them. I asked for a bottled water pero tinawanan lang ako ni Katie. I should try their drinks daw. They were one of a kind. Napailing lang ako so I ended up having coke in can. Hindi ako pinilit ni Patrick which I was grateful for.

When they started dancing, hinila na rin ako ni Katie at sumayaw kami ng sumayaw. I started to relax. It wasn't bad. All the boys respected me and never even tried to touch me at all. So when Katie gave me something to drink dahil nauuhaw na ako at wala na daw coke, tinanggap ko na. But I declined the next one. Hindi kasi ako sanay uminom. But if I had to, nandyan naman si Kuya Ram..

I enjoyed dancing the night away.

Then Patrick announced that soon, the choosen ones would be coming with them in the VIP. I heard shrieks from girls and excited cheers from boys.

After half an hour Patrick opened one of the big rooms and people flocked to get in. Mga anak ng artista at politician ang pumasok. The second one was for us. Yong mga close friend ni Patrick. Nag alangan pa ako dahil kakakilala ko lang naman sa kanya eh.

All the boys walked quietly sa loob. While the girls were excited and shrieking with joy. Ano bang meron dito? Kinakabahan na nagpahila ako kay Katie. It would be her first time too kaya kinakabahan din siya. While Olivia was with a girl that she went with before.

I looked behind and saw Kuya Ram watching me. Napatango lang ako. He nodded back then the big door closed.

It was dim lit room kaya para akong nangangapa. Pinaupo ako ni Olivia sa bandang gilid while Katie sa kabilang dulo. Then sa gitna siya. It was a big couch. From wall to wall. Malapad din siya na parang pwedeng paghigaan to sleep. It was comfortable.

Lumapit si Patrick sa akin then chatted with me. Bumalik ang pagiging relax ko because he was so accomodating and friendly. Then he talked to every girls. He even went outside for half an hour. Pagbalik niya may dala na siyang maraming inumin na alam ko na kasi Olivia gave time to explain everything on our table.

Patrick smiled at me and gave me a shot glass. Dahil ako ang nasa pinaka huli ay ako inuna niya. Wala akong pagpipilian kundi tanggapin ito. Buti nalang dahil may malaking paso sa tabi ko so I chucked the drink away. Bigla akong nakahinga ng maayos. Sa side ko kasi ay maraming nakahilerang malalaking paso at halaman hanggang sa likuran. Pwede pa nga akong magtago dito kung sakaling pilitin nila akong uminom ulit.

Ilang minuto pa ay may nakita na akong naghahalikan at naghihipuan.

Nagulat ako because suddenly biglang naging aggressive ang lahat ng mga tao sa loob. Even Katie was lying on the couch with her legs up high while being kissed on her private part by one of Patrick's friend.

Napatayo ako. Kumakabog ang dibdib ko sa kaba. Napasandal ako sa wall at nagtago sa malaking paso. I saw one of Patrick's friend went to where I was sitting before. He was the one that kept talking to me. Patrick came up too.

"Where's she? Ive been dying to taste her Rick!"he demanded. The moanings were echoing in the four walled room. Nanlaki ang mga mata ko nang nakita kong lumuhod si Olivia sa harap ng kapartner niya at isinubo ang pagkalalaki nito.

Nanginginig akong mas sumiksik pa.

"Probably someone took her away. Let's check them. I wanted to fuck her too. Shes the ex-fiancé of Peter Allison. She must be good."

"Yeah I heard it too. Apparently Peter's so good in bed that women could learn from him in just one night. What more if she was the fiancé? She might do some tricks just to please me." He laughed menacingly.

I was horrified. They looked so respectable a moment ago. Then now, these happened. Hindi ko akalain na yong ang iniisip nila just because I was associated with Peter in the past!

I needed to escape. If they learned that I was nowhere to be found, they might search the place..

Mangiyak ngiyak na gumapang ako papunta sa likuran. I was so glad with the flower pots that was adorning the place. Dahil kung wala ito baka narape na ako. When I settled behind the rows of pots, nakita ko si Olivia na may umaatras abante sa likuran niya na hubad na lalaki while she was still busy with her partner's genitalia.

Bigla akong nanginig.. I should've not trusted anyone. Mari-rape ako nang walang kalaban laban. Katie was with another man now and enjoying it so much.

This VIP was a sex orgy room! Napaiyak ako at mas sumiksik sa pader nang makarinig ako ng commotion.

Patrick went round half naked with four of his friend. Hinahanap na nila ako! Napasubsob ako sa carpet at mas sumiksik pa.

Then I heard footsteps from my side. Napasinghap ako nang may sumabunot sa akin patayo.

"Finders keepers dude. I saw her first so I got the first taste." The boy I chatted with laughed demonically.

Napatili ako at hinila niya ako sa buhok. Napalabas ako sa pinagtataguan ko.

Napaiyak ako ng itulak niya ako sa couch at nagsimulang maghubad. Lumuhod ako at pinagkiskis ang mga kamay sa harapan niya. Desperately begging him. My eyes were blurry from my tears.

"Please.. I'm not what you think. Please let me leave this place. I swear I won't tell any soul about this." Pagmamakaawa ko. Naghalo halo na ang luha at pawis ko.

The four of them laughed. Inilibot ko ang mga mata kong halos hindi ko na maimulat sa pamamaga. Napaiyak pa akong lalo ng magtanggal na rin silang tatlo ng briefs. Napayuko ako. Nanginginig ng sobra ang payat kong katawan.

I never thought that these would happen to me. I've asked Olivia about this party but her mouth was shut.

Napasigaw ako ng hablutin ulit ng lalaki ang buhok ako at ilapit sa ibaba nyang katawan. Napatakip ako ng mukha.

"No!! Please. I'm begging you. Please.."patuloy kong pakikiusap. Two arms pulled my hands away from my face. Napatingala ako at nakita si Patrick na nakangisi at mainit na nakatingin sa katawan ko. Napayuko ako at nakitang nakalislis na ang dress ko at nakikita na ang panty ko.

"No!" Sigaw ko nang hilain ng isa pang lalaki ang dress ko. Sinubukan kong bawiin ang mga braso ko para takpan ang halos hubad kong katawan pero mas hinigpitan lang nila Patrick ang hawak sa akin.

"Nice..makakatikim na rin ako ng nagamit na ni Peter. I bet you're good in bed like him. " bulong ni Patrick sa akin. Halos maihi ako sa takot.. tagaktak na ang pawis ko.

Sumenyas ang nasa harapan ko at binitiwan nila ako sa mga kamay. Pinagkiskis ko ulit ang mga kamay ko para makiusap.

"Please.. hindi.. hindi po ako marunong. You.. you got it all wrong. Please let me go.." i sobbed while begging them..

But they laughed again.

"Gusto ata nito ng role playing bro." Sabi nung isa.

Napailing ako ng ilang beses.

Umusog ako ng humakbang papalapit ang lalaki. He swore when I did it again.

"Ayaw sayo bro. Baka naliliitan. Peter's huge they said." Tumatawang sabi nung isang nakahawak sa braso ko kanina. Malaswang nakatingin sa katawan ko.

"Shut up! And you! Don't make me hit you Monteverde!" Galit na sigaw nung lalaki at hinila ang buhok ko. Umiling lang ako ng ilang beses.

Napabagsak ako sa couch nang suntukin nya ako sa tyan.

Napasinghap ako sa sakit. He kicked me in my stomach. Umiiyak na tinanggap ko lang ang atake niya. I curled in pain.. It was better this way. Kaysa marape ako. I was in too much pain that my vision starting to blacken out.

Then the door was forced open. Napahiyaw ang mga tao at mabilis na nagtakbuhan. I tried to open my eyes when three tall and huge men pulled my attacker and the other three boys away from me. Then they punched all four like maniac. Hard and repeatedly. Walang nagawa sina Patrick kundi tanggapin ang mga suntok ng tatlo.

Napalunok ako at itinungkod ang mga kamay sa couch para makaupo. Nananakit ang katawan ko sa panggugulpi ng lalaki sa akin kanina.

Nang ilibot ko ang paningin ko ay maraming pulis ang nakapaligid at may mga hila hilang mga babae at lalaki na nakaposas. Si Kuya Ram ay ginugulpi ang humawak sa balikat ko kanina.

My attention went back to the three men and suddenly I recognised them. They were Peter, Kuya Lindsey and Kuya Coles.

Napaiyak na naman ako ng malakas. I could see the rage in Peter's expression.

I called them out.. my voice was hoarse and they seemed too absorbed with what they were doing.

I slowly stood up to stop them from killing those boys.. but my knees wobbled and fell on my knees. Napatungkod ako ng mga kamay ko.

I felt presence beside me.

"Love..you're safe. I'm here.."Peter said and carried me before my vision went black.

I gasped when I woke up with my body in so much pain. Peter sat up stiffly and held my hand tightly. His face full of worry. My eyes started to blur. He stood up and held my cheeks. Then kissed my forehead. He was whispering soothing words on my ear.. Napangiwi ako nang subukan kong galawin ang mga braso ko. Everything was painful.

When my cries got louder, the pain on my chest became more intense. Peter pressed the nurses button in hurry. The nurses came in immediately with a doctor and examined me. After a while they injected something and my body started to relax and go numb.

"Love.. just rest okay? I'll be here. And don't worry, everything's okay now.." he said with his eyes red. I slowly closed my eyes.

I could hear voices near me. When I focused my attention on what they were talking about, my senses woke up.

"I want them to pay for what they did to my daughter." My father said gravely. Napadilat ako at nakita silang nakaupo sa couch. Two men in uniform, Daddy with mommy, Kuya who was looking out of my window and clenching his jaw, Kuya Coles and Kuya lindsey on the single couches and Peter who looked like hell. Para siyang kulang sa tulog at gusot ang damit. Even his hair was messy.

I gasped when I tried to move and a searing pain went through my chest. I think I had broken ribs or something.

"Anak!! Glad you're conscious now!" Mommy cried and stood up. Lahat sila napalapit sa akin. May pag aalala sa mga mukha.

"Mommy.. what happened? It's so painful.." my tears fell.

Kuya Ashmere looked away and clenched his jaw.Kuya Coles and Lindsey tapped his shoulders. Lumabas silang tatlo pagkatapos nilang tumango sa akin. May galit sa mga mata nila.

"Princess.. everything's okay. Don't worry. You just need to heal and we'll be back home soon."

"Mommy.. yong mga kaibigan ko po?" Tanong ko. Dahil hindi ko na sila nakita noong nagsidatingan ang mga pulis.

"They're all in jail. Even that Valderama and Locsin. They're in jail and I'll make sure they'll rot in there." Daddy said darkly. Napahingal ako sa sakit ng subukan kong huminga ng maayos. Parang may tumutusok sa kalooban ko.

"You have two broken ribs, clavicle fracture and bruises all over your body." Peter said while clenching his jaw. Galit na galit. Napatango ako. Naalala ko na naman ang mga pinag usapan nang mga lalaking nanakit sa akin.

Biglang tumulo ang mga luha ko. Nagpayakap si Mommy sa akin ng may pag iingat.

"Anak.. tell us what happened.." Napatango ako. The two men recorded my statements and after that they left the room.

"Can I talk to Loveria Tito, Tita?"

"But of course anak.." Mommy said then pulled Daddy out of my room.

Tumingin ako sa kanya gamit ang mga nanlalabong mata.

"Love.. I'm sorry if we came late.."he said in regret and eyes in tears..

Napaiyak ako sabay hawak sa masakit kong katawan.

"Alam mo ba kung anong sinabi nila sa akin while trying their ways on me?" Nanginginig kong sinabi. Umiling si Peter. He was clenching his jaw.

"You fuck so good that women learn from you. So dahil ex mo ako.. they thought... they thought I can fuck them well.." he swallowed hard. Then came near my bed. He held my hand gently.

"Dahil sa reputation mo, I'm suffering. Mula noon hanggang ngayon Peter.. dahil sa sobrang hilig mo sa mga babae.. dahil sa pagiging mapaglaro mo.. paulit ulit akong nasasaktan at nadadamay."Dahan dahan kong hinila ang kamay kong hawak niya.

"Please.. I want you gone.."sabi ko at tinakpan ang mukha.

"L-Love..j-just l-listen to me.. I-I never fuck any one-"

"Enough.. please. Just leave me alone.." mahina kong sabi at dahan dahang tumalikod sa kanya. Nanginginig ang katawan ko sa sakit. Pero tiniis ko. Nang maramdaman ko siyang lumabas ng kwarto ko ay napahinga ako ng malalim. Sabay ngiwi.

"Thank you love.."
