Sa Kama ni Bayaw

35

Claire's

Inayos muna ni Seb ang damit ko bago niya ako hinila papaalis sa dancefloor. The crowd was still busy bouncing up and down to the beat. The place reeks alchohol, smoke and s*x. Madilim ang lugar at tanging mga disco lights lang ang nagbibigay liwanag.

Nilibot ko ang tingin sa lugar, hinahanap si Kate. Simula nang magpunta kami dito sa gitna ng dancefloor ay hindi ko na siya nakita pa.

Nahati ang mga nagsasayawang tao sa pagdaan ni Seb. With his domineering aura and stance that screams wealth and authority, I bet no one would mess to stand on his way. Lahat ay napapagilid kapag makita siya. I was like an unspoken rule.

Nagpaubaya lang ako sa kaniyang paghila sa akin. It's so funny how I suddenly felt at peace while he's holding me when in fact, I just cried my heart out when I saw him with that woman. Masakit sa puso 'yung nakita ko silang dalawa sa restaurant, though that didn't imply something. Mas naunang manghusga ang isip ko sa nakita, I didn't even ask him first. Pero may karapatan ba akong magtanong? He's just my brother-in-law. It's not like have a relationship.

Eh, bakit nakipag-mukbang ka sa kaniya? Sarap na sarap ka, girl!

I tilted my head to look at him. Seryoso ang mukha niya habang binabagtas namin ang daan paalis sa dancefloor.

His hold on me was protective. Nakapalibot ang kaniyang braso sa bewang at inalalayan ako sa mga malilikot na nagsasayawang tao. I find it sweet and cute at the same time because I don't see Sebastian being protective and sweet. His aura is always hard and harsh. Minsan ko lang siyang nakitang ngumiti.

Umakyat kami sa isang makipot na hagdanan, may nagbabantay sa entrance nito, tinanguan lang ni Seb ang mga iyon at tuloy-tuloy kaming pumanhik. Mas tahimik dito, hindi gaanong maririnig ang ingay sa dancefloor.

Alam kong kaibigan niya ang may-ari ng bar na ito, at sa mga naririnig ko ay may mga VIP rooms ito sa taas. Mukhang doon ang punta namin.

Pero iba ang bumungad sa akin. This is the second floor and it's more of a VIP bar in here. May mga plush seats at tables, natatabingan mga mga maninipis na kurtina ang bawat VIP area. Mayroong bar counter sa pinakdulo. A low and soft music was playing on the background and the lights are low. May mga mahihinang tawa akong naririnig. I frowned when I heard a low moan, I scanned the area. Hindi masyadong nakikita ang mga VIP area dahil sa nakaharang na mga kurtina.

Seb pulled me to the farthest side of the room. Mas tahimik na dito.

"Seb, where are you taking me? Nasa baba si Kate, she might look for me. Baka nag-alala na iyon sa akin," I told him. Nasa likuran lang niya ako.

"Don't worry about her, Claire, she won't look for you," sagot niya sa akin. Huminto kami sa tapat ng isang VIP area, at katulad ng nakita ko kanina pagpasok ko pa lang dito ay may kurtina din ito. It was like a room, but instead of walls, the one the separates it to the rest of the room is just a sheer curtain.

A mixture of masculine and flirtatious laugh erupted. May mga kasama pala siya dito, at may mga babae pa. Napataas ang kilay ko. So, he's here in this bar with flirty woman. mas inuna niya pag magpunta dito kaysa puntahan ako o kahit man lang ipaalam sa akin na nakauwi na siya.

Girl, bakit naman ipapaalam sayo na nakauwi na siya? Ano ka? Girlfriend?

"Teka lang, bakit ba tayo nandito?" tanong ko sa kaniya. Hinila ko ang kamay na hawak niya pero mas lalo lang niya itong hinigpitan.

Maybe he saw the hesitation in my eyes. Bumuntong-hininga siya at hinarap ako. He settled both of his hands on my shoulder and looked me in the eye. Alam niyang hindi ako sanay sa mga ganitong lugar, all my life I've always follow what my parents told me and that includes no going into bars and no drinking alcoholic drinks.

Ngayong nahimasmasan na ako, parang gusto kong pagsisihan iyong pagsayaw ko kanina. Nakakahiya! Gusto kong magpalamon sa lupa dahil sa hiya!

"They're just my friends, Claire."

Hinila niya ako papasok. Bumungad sa akin ang mga nag-iinumang lalaki. Nabaling ang tingin nilang lahat sa akin. I stilled when I recognized some of them. Nanigas ang buong katawan ko at ayaw kong pumasok pero hinila na ako ni Seb kaya wala akong nagawa kun'di magpatianod sa paghila niya.

"Whoa! What do we have here? It's the famous beauty queen, Claire dela Fuerte. It's my pleasure to meet such beauty!" Nakangiti si Andrei Morotov na lumapit sa amin. His polo was unbuttoned showing off his ripped abs and hairy chest.

Sebastian guided me and let me sit while he settled beside me. Kilala ko siya dahil siya ang may-ari ng sikat na bar na ito, he was featured several times on a business magazine and he even posted as a model for a certain liquor, not to mention that he has a reputation on the ladies.

May mga babae rin silang kasama. Andrei offered his hand so I obliged, but I was shocked when he pulled me instead and hugged me. Napatayo ako dahil sa paghila niya sa akin, akala ko makipagkamay lang siya.

"What the f*ck, Drei?" A strong hand gently gripped my arm and pulled me away from Andrei who has a jackass smile plastered on his face.

Natawa rin ang ibang mga kasama nila. The woman just raised their eyebrows on me. Tatlong babae sila, and one particular got my attention. Masama itong nakatingin sa akin. She's familiar, though I couldn't point where I've seen her.

"Uh..hi," Alanganin akong ngumiti sa kaniya at muling umupo sa tabi ni Seb. He immediately rested his arms on the back of the sofa, para siyang naka-akbay pero hindi naman.

"Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Winston," nakangiti nitong pakilala sa akin, the man had a friendly smile. Hindi kagaya ni Andrei na parang anumang oras ay gagawa ng kalokohan, "and this is Pia," he pointed the woman who sat beside him,

"Hi," kumaway ako sa babae, ngumiti lang ito ng tipid sa akin at hindi nagsalita.

Tatlong lalaki ang kasama niya at tatlo rin ang babae. Iyong isang lalaki ay hindi nagpakilala, tahimik lang itong umiinum na parang walang pakialam sa mga nangyayari sa paligid.

Uminit ng husto ang mukha ko nang mabaling ang tingin ko kay Andrei. Nakakandung na kasi sa kaniya ang isa sa mga babae sa at mainit silang naghahalikan. Andrei was groping her b*tt while the woman grinned on top of him.

"Just don't mind them," I felt him whispered on my ear. Malapit ang labi niya sa tainga ko dahil naramdaman ko ang pagsagi ng basa niyang labi sa tainga ko. I shivered at the contact and I love how my body reacted. He pulled me closer to him and I felt his arms circled my shoulder.

Tiningala ko siya. He was looking down at me, as if he was waiting for my reaction. His gazed held an unspoken desire. Bumaba ang tingin ko sa labi niya at nakitang basa iyon, marahil dahil sa pag-inum niya ng beer.

There are plenty of empty bottles scattered on the table. Sa dami niyon ay tiyak kong lasing na sila o baka hindi pa dahil sanay naman sa inuman ang mga ito.

"Palagi ka ba dito?" tanong ko sa kaniya.

"Yes,"

"Dito ka ba natulog noong hindi ka umuwi sa bahay?" I asked him before I could even stop myself. Nagulat ako dahil kusa na iyong lumabas sa bibig ko.

I heard him chuckled and he put some wayward strands of my hair into the back of my ear. His face was so close to mine.

"Yes, Claire. Minsan dito ako natutulog kapag naabutan ng kalasingan," he drawled lazily. Namumungay ang mga mata niyang nakatingin sa akin.

I bit my lip. This intimacy is killing me. Sure, we had some more s****l encounters before but this is just so sweet. I've never seen this side of him.

"With a woman?" Oh, god! Why can't I control my mouth! Alam kong pulang-pula na ang mukha ko. Ayaw kong itanong iyon pero gusto kong malaman!

He pecked a kiss on my lips. Just a peck but I want some more. Ayoko ng gano'n!

"Ain't gonna answer that, babe,"

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko. He's not answering it because he's with a woman! Ang lalaking 'to!

Malakas na hinampas ko ang kaniyang dibdib na sinundan naman niya ng isang malutong na tawa.

Napamaang ako, ngayon ko lang siya nakitang tumawa ng gano'n. He looked so carefree. Mas lalo siyang naging guwapo. Napatitig ako sa mukha niya, ang sarap haplusin.

Nang makita nyang nakatitig ako sa kaniya at naging seryoso ang tingin niya sa akin. he raised his fingers and rubbed my cheeks ever so softly.

My heart pounded hard inside my chest cavity. His face is so near and I felt his warm breath assaulted my face. His breath smelled alcohol and mint mixed.

"God, you're so beautiful. You're making me crazy every time I get to taste these sweet lips of yours."

From my cheeks, his hand moved down on my lips and caressed my lower lip. Mainit ang daliri niyang humahaplos sa pang-ibabang labi ko. Titig na titig siya sa mga labi ko.

"I want you, Claire. I want you so f*cking much it's making me insane."

With that, he crushed his lips on mine. His kisses were demanding and I responded with the same intensity.

He cupped my jaw with both of his hands to depend our kiss. I could feel the strong emotion he wanted me to feel through his kisses, it was full of passion and desire at once.

Impit akong napasigaw nang bigla niya akong inangat at pinaupo sa kaniyang kandungan, nasa magkabilang gilid niya ang mga binti ko. I was wearing a mid-thigh bodycon dressed I bought at the mall yesterday.

"Seb, may nakatingin," I told him, indicating his friends and their partners.

"Don't mind them, Claire," he whispered drunkenly as he traced sweet butterfly kisses on my jaw going to my cheeks, he then captured my lips and I forgot about his friend on the backdrop. His scorching kisses is all that matters now, I wanna kiss him like I don't give a damn on who's watching us. I just wanna feel him.

Sinagot ko ang mga mainit niya halik at ibinuka ang bibig ko nang sinundot niya ang dila para makapasok. Our tongues danced in a rhythm only us can hear. He hungrily sucked my tongue and I just let him explore every part of my mouth. I branded it as his starting today. All of me will be his.
