PUMASOK si Toni sa kwarto ni Alex.
Naka upo ito sa ibabaw ng kama.
"Tulog na?" tanong nito pagkapasok niya.
Isinara niya ang pinto.
"Yes." sagot niya nang umakyat sa ibabaw ng kama.
They are facing each other now.
Nang mag usap usap ang mga magulang nila na magkaroon ng celebration na sila lang, dinala silang mag ina ni Alex sa condo nito.
Hindi niya alam kung gusto lang ng mga magulang na magkaroon sila ni Alex ng privacy.
Ipapaiwan pa sana nila si Xander pero ayaw pumayag ng anak. Gusto nitong sumama sa kanila. Naging malapit na ito agad kay Alex.
At natutulog na sa kabilang kwarto ang anak.
Napagod ito sa pakikipaglaro kay Alex.
"Sobrang kulit ni Xander." ani Alex.
Tumawa siya.
"Sobra." aniya. "He really likes you."
"Im happy about that."
Katahimikan.
Tumingin rito ang dalaga.
Humugot ng malalim na hininga.
"About Xander."umpisa niya.
"Baby, you don't need to if you're not ready yet." pigil ng kaharap.
Umiling siya.
Alex hold her hands.
Ngumiti siya rito.
"Remember the night we had our first big fight?" tanong niya rito.
Tumango ito.
"I was so mad at you that time. Niyaya ako ng mga kaibigan ko to attend a pool party at sumama ako sa kanila. We drink, and i just want to forget na galit ako sayo."
Saglit na huminto ang dalaga.
"And there was a guy."
Silence.
"He was just trying to flirt at first. And i let him. When he offered me a drink, tinanggap ko."
Nararamdaman na niya ang sariling nanginginig.
"I couldn't remember what happened after that. At nong nagkamalay ako, i saw him."
She can't stop her tears. Niyakap siya ni Alex.
"I was awake but i can't move. I can see him,on top of me but i can't even open my mouth. "
Napahagulhol na ang dalaga habang inalala ang masamang nakaraan.
Alex is hugging her tight while rubbing her back.
But she can sense her anger hearing her words.
"I was shouting and begging for him to stop. But that was only inside my mind. My whole body was paralyzed,except my mind. He kept on doing that disgusting thing on my body. And i can't even stop him."
Alex is crying too. Her heart is torn to pieces.
She can't imagine how did Toni survived.
Kumalas si Toni mula sa kanyang pagkakayakap.
"It was too late nang maabutan kami ng mga friends ko sa isang kwarto. Tapos na siyang babuyin ang buong pagkatao ko. Dinala ako sa hospital. I need to stay there for a whole week. I still can't move,can't speak. I refuse to talk. I just keep on crying."
Parang hinihiwa ng paulit ulit ang puso ni Alex.
She cried with her. Felt her pain.
Tinanggal ni Toni ang suot na bracelet.
Napatingin siya sa pinakita nitong pilat sa bandang pulso ng kamay nito.
"I tried to end my life."
"Oh baby."
Kinulong niya uli ito dibdib.
She can't stop crying.
"I'm sorry i wasn't there with you baby. I'm so sorry."
Umiyak din ng umiyak ang dalaga sa dibdib niya.
"Thats why i don't let any guy near me. It made me sick. Hindi ako pumupunta sa mga party , it reminds me of my past. "
Hinalikan ni Alex ang buhok nito.
Kumalas si Toni sa pagkakayakap sa kanya.
"Hindi ka ba nandidiri sakin?" tanong nito matapos punasan ang luha gamit ang likod ng palad nito.
"Is that why you need to hide for so long? Dahil takot kang mandiri ako sayo?" di makapaniwalang tanong ni Alex rito.
Tamango ito.
"Oh God baby. Gusto ko ngang patayin ang hayop na lalaking may gawa nito sayo."
"Nakakulong parin siya hanggang ngayon." sagot ni Toni.
Hinalikan ni Alex ang pilat sa pulso nito.
"I love you Antoinette Labajo." madamdaming pag amin ni Alex habang nakatitig sa mga namumugtong mga mata ng dalaga. "Hinding hindi ako mandidiri pagdating sayo."
She kissed her temple.
"I promise i will protect you."
She kissed the right side of her eyes.
"You and Xander."
She kissed the other side.
"I will love you always."
She kissed the tip of her nose.
"Now and always."
And she kissed her lips.
And she looked into her eyes.
"You are the girl that I've been dreaming of ever since I was a little girl." aniya.
Napangiti na si Toni.
"I love you Ton. Mula pagkabata, hanggang high school hanggang magkalayo tayo. Kahit nong nawala kang bigla. At hanggang ngayon, ikaw lang ang nagmamay ari ng puso ko."
And it was Toni's turn to kissed her first.
"I love you too Alex. I love you. I love you with all my heart."
They kissed again.
Parehong uhaw sa isa't isa.
This time ,wala ng alinlangan.
This moment will all be theirs to share.
When they parted, Alex pulled Toni's night gown up and over her body.
She gazed at her, eyes full of admiration.
She stopped her when she was about to cover her expose body.
"You look so beautiful,so perfect." aniya.
Nahihiyang ngumiti si Toni.
Alex slowly pushed her flat on the bed, and she stand up at the edge of the bed and take her own clothes off.
Her tshirt, her sports bra,her sweat pants.
Toni was looking at her,eyes full of love. Scared, yet excited.
She looked so damn gorgeous with only her black thong.
Alex places her hands between her parted feet and crawls slowly up between her legs.
Her eyes staring deep into hers as she came closer and closer to her face.
As her lips met hers, Alex sank on top of Toni,her fingers gripping her hair and pulling her face to her.
And kissed her lips again.
Her tongue darted between her lips, smooth and soft. Her breath warm breathing her in as their breast pushed against one another as their breathing got harder and faster.
Itinaas ni Alex ang sarili ,far enough to push her hand down Toni's body to her breast.
"I want to take away all your fears baby." bulong niya sa rito after breaking the kiss.
She rolled one nipple between her finger and thumb and take it in her mouth.
Toni gasped in shocked.
Alex nibbles it gently, from one nipple to another one.
Napapaungol si Toni sa sensasyong dulot ng ginagawa ni Alex sa katawan niya.
And Alex slowly move back down her body the way she had come.
She kissed the side of her thigh,gently nibbling the skin, teasing her.
Toni's body was on fire,she's feeling hot with every kisses.
Alex take off the last piece of clothing she was wearing. And slowly, gently, her mouth landed on her clit.
Her lips closing it,lapping at it with her tongue.
Pinigilan ni Alex ang balakang nito nang umangat ito bigla.
Toni can feel the heat rising as she writhe under Alex's face, and just as she is about to push her over the edge she inserts a single slender finger into her .
Sa ginawa ni Alex, Toni can feel the first wave of fire rising and spreading through her.
She can't hold it.
She come hard onto Alex's hand as she rapidly pumps two fingers in and out while she sucks on her clit.
She called her name when she come.
Alex smiled. Satisfied that she made her feel what pleasure is, and what true love is.
She moved back up to her body and kissed Toni's lips.
Toni could taste herself in Alex's mouth. And it didn't made her feel weird. Mas nagpabalik pa ito sa gana niya.
They kissed again.
With more passion.
Alex moved her kisses down to her neck, to the back of her ears,to her shoulder and back to her lips.
Alex thrusted her hips downward, applying direct pressure to her mound as she kissed her with all the love and lust she had for her.
Pareho silang napaungol.
Toni's eyes roll back and stretches her neck leaving one succulent piece of exposed neck.
Alex just had to bite down as she worked her hips one more time and sucked hard.
She don't care kung mag iiwan ito ng marka kinabukasan.
She used one hand to remove her boxers.
And then worked her hips in a circular motion with a downward thrust, making sure to hit the spot.
Her moans of pleasure were her sign to continue.
"I love you baby." Alex said.
"I love you too baby." Toni replied.
And they made love, over and over until sunrise.
Now who's gonna make Xander's breakfast?
.
------THE END ------
