Forbidden Love (A love to be kept forever)

REMINISCING

June 2008

Kyle Matthew Rio, 24 yrs old, tall, mestizo, and very handsome. Son of a business tycoon. "What's wrong with you, dad? We've been living a peaceful and happy family life. So why did you have to do it?"

"I don't know, son. I don't know. It just happened before I knew it."

"Dad, you had a mistress, and yet you didn't know what you did? Aren't you in love with mom anymore?"

"Believe me, son. I love your mother and will love her forever."

"Oh yeah? Then what's this mess all about? All along I thought I had a very decent father."

"I'm so sorry, I'll make sure to make it up to y'all."

“Of all people dad, I’ve never imagined you would do such a thing.” 

“I’ll fix this, I promise.”

At the bar

Matt is alone drinking when he sees this girl sobbing while drinking like there’s no tomorrow. She seems like carrying the world on her shoulders. He intently looks unto her how she easily gulps what’s inside her glass then asks for the waiter again to serve her another shot of whatever she is drinking until someone comes close to her and likes forcing her for something. The girl struggles because she’s already in a drunk state. He was only looking closely at them and just waiting for the right moment to meddle. 

Someone seizes Gally’s arm and orders her to come with him. “Who the hell are you?”

“Come with me beautiful, you seem lonely here, let’s have a good time together.” - the evil man.

“Go away if you still love yourself!” Gally told the man.

But the man grabbed her arm and forced her to stand. “Ouch! Let go of me you son of a b***h!” 

Matt was still looking at them and waiting for something unusual to happen, and he’ll rescue the girl. 

Gally immediately throws her hand at the strangers’ face. She made sure this man will regret harassing her. 

“You witch!” The man raised his hand and acted to hit Gally, but Gally’s reflexes were still too fast to avoid what was about to hit her and instead punched the strangers’ face so hard that he even fell to the ground. 

“Whoa! That’s my girl!” Matt thought about what he saw. But it’s too late for him to protect the girl when someone behind suddenly pushed her, which caused her head to hit the bar corner. Matt rushed to the girl and carried her in his arms, “You okay, sweetie?” She is still conscious but not opening her eyes. 

“Please, get me out of here.” -Gally.

Matt was stunned by what she said; she wanted him to get her out of here, yeah, but where would he bring her? He doesn’t even know her. 

“Please, Mr. Let's get out of here.” She doesn’t know where those words came from. This man holding her is a total stranger, yet she lets him take care of everything. 

Matt paid their bills and slowly guided the girl out of the bar. Her eyes are still closed, but she managed to walk until they reached the parking lot where Matt’s car was waiting. Matt carefully takes the girl into the passenger’s seat and lays her there. 

“Hmm, Miss, where should I bring you? Please tell me your address and I’ll safely bring you there.”

“Nah, bring me anywhere, not just home.” I want to escape from this world, even just this once.

Matt thought to bring the girl into his apartment. But, he also thought about what would be the problem of this girl refusing to go home. “Hmm, care to tell me your burden, Miss. I might help you in some ways.”

Gally did not even bother to look in the man’s direction or even look at his face. “I don’t want to talk about it, I’m sorry and thank you for being so helpful.” 

Matt just sighed and continued driving till he reached his apartment. He opened the passenger’s seat when he heard the girls’ little snore. Matt smiled and slowly tapped the girl’s shoulder, but she seemed to be in her deepest state of sleep. So, he decided to carry her and bring her into his bed. Then suddenly shakes his head at the thought that he could’ve brought her into the guest’s room and not in his room. So, after laying her on the bed, it was the only time he could see her whole face. The girl is beautiful, very beautiful to be exact. “She has the most kissable lips I’ve ever seen.” He then turned the lights off and was about to close the door when the girl shouted. 

“Get away from me, Mom!” The girl shouted. So, she has bad dreams, Matt thought to himself and stayed a little while.

“How dare you do that to our family? I hate you, and I will hate you the rest of my life!” Gally sits down and cries intensely. 

Matt never knew that she wasn’t just dreaming. She is awake then bursts into anger and tears. I can feel her pain. “You okay, Miss?” He comes close to her without bothering to open the lights. Matt caresses her back to give her comfort; he doesn’t know how to stop a woman from crying. So he continues what he’s doing while the girl is still crying. “Whatever that is you are suffering from, please know that I am here; you can try to tell me everything. It can help you unload your pain.” 

Gally suddenly stops crying after hearing the man’s voice. That’s the only time she remembered that she is somewhere with this stranger and now trying to ease the pain that she’s feeling. “Thank you so much; You don’t know how much it means to me, my best friend is out of the country and I can’t rely on someone but myself. I just really wanted to run from all the mess that’s happening to my life now.” And started crying again.

Out of concern, Matt hugs the girl in front of him and slowly strokes his fingers in her hair. “Shhh, it’s okay; everything happens for a reason. Hush now, sweetie.”

Without a second thought, Gally hugs the man back. And cry her heart out. 

Matt cupped Gally’s face in the intention to calm her and to let her know that even if they're total strangers with each other, she can lean on him. But when he sees her face because of light from the outside, damp with tears, it touches his heart. So he didn’t know what was running through his mind when he slowly kissed the girl on her lips. 

Gally was shocked; it was her first-ever kiss. He never imagined giving her first kiss to a stranger, but she doesn’t know why she can’t complain; instead, she responded to the kiss. 

Matt was surprised when the girl opened her mouth slightly as if she welcomed him to explore it. He was expecting a double s******g for kissing the girl, but she seemed not to bother kissing someone she did not know, and he felt angry about it.  So what if it wasn’t him who picked her at the bar and did the same thing with her and took advantage of her vulnerability? “s**t!” Matt voiced out. 

Gally felt disappointed when the kissing stopped. She still did not know the look of the man she was kissing. 

“I’m sorry I wasn’t cursing because of this, I just thought about someth---,” when the girl quickly kissed his lips while he still had something to say. The kiss was searching; it’s like the one kissing him was looking for something she never experienced. Matt has nothing to do but respond to the kiss passionately. His hands started moving and searching out on her body. 

Gally felt excited instead of feeling frightened of what was happening. What’s all in her mind is to forget her problems and cast all her pain away. Her body is responding to every touch of the stranger. It feels good, and it feels fine. It is giving her calmness. Of all the things that could happen, flirting and making out with someone is the least in her mind to soothe her troubled heart. Funny, but it is what she’s feeling at that moment. 

Matt continues kissing the girl while caressing every inch of her body. He was waiting for the girl to stop him, and he would stop, but she was not complaining at all. Instead, the girl’s kiss is starting to get wild--that turns him on. 

Gally was not thinking straight, but who cares? She wanted to go into a world where she won’t feel any pain. So she moves to return the kiss the best way she could as it was her first kiss; she doesn’t know what should be the right way to kiss a man. Her hands were also exploring the stranger’s body. All her inhibitions were thrown away because of the passionate and tender touches the man is giving her. 

Matt’s hand goes inside the girl’s shirt, seeking for her two treasured crowns. The moment he landed his hand on one of her crowns and slightly squeezed it, he could feel that the girl’s body stiffened for a while. “Would you want me to stop?” Matt whispered in her ears. 

The man’s voice sent shivers to Gally’s spine that instead of asking him to stop, she nudged her breast closer to him. 

That was the sign Matt was waiting for before proceeding into something more intimate. He then started undressing the girl, slowly but surely. His lips were hunting, exploring every inch of Gally’s body. From her lips down to her neck while pulling up her shirt to reveal her body. Her breast was full and inviting. He unhooked her upper underwear and kissed each side of her proud breast. 

Gally can’t help the sensation she’s feeling right that very moment, which causes her to release a long and soft moan. 

“Oh, sweetie, that’s music to my ear,” Matt whispered. He was slowly pulling down her pants when the girl held his hands. “Hmm, having cold feet, sweet?”

Gally wasn’t sure if she’s ready for this. I don’t know this man, and I haven’t even seen his face. Yet, I am sharing moments with him that only two people in love do.  “I’ve gone crazy.” Gally says to herself.”

“I’d stop if you want me to stop, I won’t force you for anything you don’t desire.” Matt said. He was about to stand up when the girl hugged her and said these words. 

“No, please. I think I need you, yes, I need you.” 

“Are you sure or you’re just drunk?”

“Please take me away from my pain.” Gally was determined to whatever may happen. She will not regret it. 

“Okay, as you wish.” Matt then started to kiss the woman in front of him over again; this time, he is very careful not to send any wrong signal to the woman that will cause her to change her mind, not that he wanted something to happen to them, he doesn’t want this girl to remember any of her pain. Before he knew it, they were both naked, and the girl seemed unsure what to do. He held her hands and guided them to his body. 

Gally touches her very masculine chest; he smells so good that she feels like she doesn’t want to be separated from him. The smell of the alcohol and his perfume is sending a tingling sensation deep within her. 

Matt started to explore the woman’s body from her lips down her neck, then to her breast. While his other hand gives the best massage to her other breast, his lips are sucking the other part, making her moan and her body arched. He continues giving her pleasure, going down her navel; he licks her tummy in a circular motion while his arm travels down her private part. He played with it and made sure she would feel nothing but pleasure. His kisses are now going down till he reached her womanhood. He licked her as gently as possible; he doesn’t want his lust to overpower him. He could hear her curse and moan. 

“s**t!” Gally can’t contain the feeling that’s burning inside her. She was ashamed of what she’s feeling but liked it at the same time. This man is making her world even crazier. She could feel any moment she’d reach the peak. 

Matt was just silent; he was controlling his emotions. He doesn’t know why he’s doing this. Not like it’s his first time. He has just this feeling that he needs to be gentle with this girl. 

After reaching her peak, Gally doesn’t know what’s flowing through her mind; she sits and hugs the man tightly. 

“Are you ready, Sweet?” He asked even though he was taken back when the girl suddenly hugged her as if she thanked him for pleasuring her. 

Without waiting for a response, he slowly lay the girl back on the bed and positioned himself on top of her. He was making his way to enter her when he finally did. He knew that he was the one who first entered her womanhood, and it got him confused. While slowly moving, he could see her face from the reflection of light that her eyes were closed, and she was biting her lip. An indication that she is hurting. “Are you okay? You should’ve told me earlier.” Matt doesn’t know what to feel. He was happy and mad at the same time.
