Samuel & Olivia

DIECINUEVE

Bagong Pagkakataon

♔ Samuel

“That’s Miss Beautiful from the Summit three years ago” sabi ni Tyron, pagka balik namin galing sa lunch ng araw na nakasabay namin sila Livi at Mommy.

“Yeah, She’s that” matipid kung sagot

“She’s more gorgeous now” komento niya

“She’s off limits Bro” saway ko sa kanya - She mine alone bulong ng utak ko

“Why?” hirit niya

“Because I said so”

“Possessive, Is she your girl” mapang asar niyang sabi

“What if she is”

“What if she is? Really! Are you forgetting you have Victoria?” asik niya sa akin

“Bro, I can see in the way you look at her that she’s someone special to you. Even though you told me you don’t know her in the Summit then… I did not believe you, that's why I did not carry on with my plan to ask her for dinner that time. But I don’t think she’s the fling or one night stand type so spare her” seryoso niyang sabi…

“I have to tell you something” I been wanting to tell him about Livi kahit noon pa, pero ng mawala siya… hindi ko na nakuha pang mag kwento. But now that’s she’s back tormenting me with her presence, messing with my mind again... I needed some advice on what I feel.

As he already knows my stay in the Hacienda, I added the “our story”... he was pissed with my attitude towards her but he understands why I reacted that way. But like Doc Zane he too is not approved with how I looked at Livi’s status in life. And looking at her now, she fits in my world… No doubt about that, what I’m not sure about is Dad.

And after the “Talk” that we had, to be friends and civil with each other… naging mas magaan ang interaction namin. The Board Meeting was just a start for something new, It’s a fresh start for us. She’s smiling back at me, the smile that always makes my heart beat a little faster than normal. She talks back freely… even scolds me sometimes. And I’ve been playful and naughty whenever we’re alone, I love making her blush. But God! It always gets me when she pouts, I would love to r****h that mouth again. - And I’ve been having wicked thoughts of having her, tasting her… God! I’ve been dreaming about her again… tumigil na yun ng mawala siya nagbalik na naman.

*Company Outing

When she looked emotional riding the Range Rover Evoque, It hit me… God! We have so many memories in that car. Beautiful sinful memories, memories we both have been trying to forget. Memories that still brought pain in her eyes… gusto ko siyang yakapin pero hindi pwede. It hurts me to see her like this. She’s so pretty and lovely in her outfit… showing off her navel and her lean and taut stomach, she’s so hot and ravishing. She still amazes me everytime.

“Oh my God! Bro?” bulalas ni Tyron, sabay turo niya kina Livi… kasama niya si Jude at Gia sa beachfront nasa Sun Coral Pool Bar kami. Tinakasan ko si Victoria, bahala siya sa buhay niya. Hindi ko maalis ang mata ko sa naka two piece na Venus incarnate… F*ck! Tang nang alindog yan, ginising ang kaibigan ko, Sh*t!

“Too bad she’s not yours anymore” sabi ni Tyron sa akin saka humalakhak… gusto ko siyang singhalan pero tama naman siya. It is my loss really and as much as I wanted to claim her as my own I have no right.

“She's not yours too” asar ko din sa kanya

“She will be if I wanted to, but you’re my friend I won’t cross that line.” asik niya sa akin

“But please settle your scores with Victoria first if you really want her. She’s too precious just to be the other girl.” unsolicited advice niya

Yeah! If I want her back… I have to make things right first. I have to be sure of how I feel… I’ve hurt her already with my impulsive moves then. We are both in our right minds now, I don’t have any excuses.

Na kuntento na lang akong pag masdan siya sa malayo, she’s so happy playing around with Gia and Jude. Swerte ni Jude… nahahawakan siya, na aakbayan siya… I wanted that too. Pinagtatawanan lang ako ni Tyron saka nailing.

I can feel Livi is avoiding me during the Dinner and Karaoke Night at the Reef Bar, can’t blame her Victoria has been glaring at her all night I don’t know why. She may have seen the way I looked at her and I am not sorry about that. I’ve been planning a way out of this dysfunctional relationship anyway. I’ve heard so many stories of her w*****g around, I thought we both agreed to be exclusive but I think I am not enough for her now. It's my fault I haven’t even been intimate with her for months now… when I kiss her I see the Venus incarnate in my mind and it always makes me lose interest in touching her. - Crazy it may sound but I’m thinking that I am cheating on the Venus incarnate named Olivia Robles… and I know I am losing my mind already...

“Ms. Robles, you look lovely ravishing tonight” her face turned beet red with my comment… pati ang neckline at shoulders niyang naka exposed namula. - Sarap dilaan, Hoooy! Samuel ang landi mo! sigaw ng mabait kung utak. P*ta! naman kasi ang sexy

“Thank you, Mr. Aguila” sabay yuko niya, tawang tawa sina Gia at Jude

“Ms. Robles, huwag kang papadala sa pambobola ng Boss mo” pang aasar ni Tyron sa akin

“Oh Thank you for the warning Attorney” balik sa kanya ni Olivia

“You, Ms. Robles is the most gorgeous lady here tonight” sabi ni Tyron sa kanya… humagalpak ng tawa si Olivia sa sinabi ni Tyron

“Mr. Aguila, Atty. Tyron... Thanks for the compliment, Pero please lang huwag niyo sa akin praktisin ang pambobola hindi yan tatalab sa akin.” balik niya sa amin ni Tyron

“But!” hihirit pa sana si Tyron

“Go away you two… humanap kayo ng mabobola niyo” pabulong niyang sabi sa amin… natatawa pa rin siya… tawang tawa din si Gia at Jude

“Waley pala kayo kay Olivia” asar ni Gia sa amin

“Akalain mo yun, Go away ka na daw Boss… I love you talaga girl, ikaw lang ang nakaka pag pa layas sa Boss mo mismo. Ikaw na talaga” mahabang komento ni Jude…

Natatawa na lang kami ni Tyron…

“Feisty! I love her already” sabi Tyron kinindatan niya pa si Olivia, saka ako hinatak paalis

The Morning After…

I know her routine of swimming early… at alam ko hindi niya palalampasin ang swimming pool dito. And bingo! The Siren is swimming alone… so beautiful and alluring

“Were you thinking about us My Love, you’re smiling with your eyes closed” lumubog siya bigla, kita sa mukha niya ang gulat ng magtama ang mga mata namin. Na patulala siya sa akin...

“I thought I’d find you here” sabi ko

“Care to share the pool with me” mukhang lalo pa siyang natulala ng mag hubad ako sa harap niya, natawa ako sa reaksyon niya… hindi pa siya nanaka sagot nag dive na ako sa pool.

I sneak in at her back and hold her waist, her athletes one piece swimsuit has a low back baring a well toned back. And her shapely behind is slightly touching my friend that can’t help but twitch. God! This is pure torture...

“So were you thinking about us” whispered to her ear with my husky voice… Yeah! I am teasing and seducing her! Shoot me! I can see goosebumps on her neck and shoulders, If I can see her upfront she’s blushing again. I’m happy that I still have an effect on her.

“Is it a happy one, you’re smiling?” I said again, pushing my luck that she would not freak out… but she did. She moved out of my touch.

“You can have the pool by yourself” she said… but I can’t let her go

"Please don't leave" I beg her… and maybe it’s my lucky day, she stops getting out of the pool.

“I won’t leave but… stop being mischievous and naughty. Please behave you’re a Boss act like one” she warned me… nangiti ako

“Nobody is around, what are you afraid of?” I teased her. I know she’s afraid to be associated with me because I’m involved with someone. Well she doesn’t know what happened last night… so I will let it go for now.

“Samuel!” pinandilatan niya ako saka lumangoy palayo sa akin. Sinundan ko nalang siya at sinabayan sa paglangoy. Tahimik lang kami noong una pero paglaon masaya kaming nagkwentuhan at parang mga batang naglalaro.

- When the sun came out we watched the spectacular sunrise, with smiles on our faces. I would trade anything in the world for that beautiful smile of hers.

I was in good mood all day… I even joined the Team Building Activities to my employee’s amazement. This is all because of my early morning swim… with “My Love”. I even sat with them in the Lagoa Restaurant during breakfast. - That woman is really my happy pill, she will always be a light to my dark world and a breath of fresh air to my suffocating social circle.

*Last Night of the Company Outing

The Dinner and Awards Night will be at the Function Rooms, it has an open foyer with scenic views of the mountain and lagoon. This is one memorable outing, one because “My Love” is here and two ironically I am free of the woman called Victoria. What a relief… I don’t have to do anything. She's the one who pushed herself on the cliff. Haven’t seen her since last night’s altercation and I don’t have any plans to talk to her anymore...we are done finally.

“Ms. Robles can we talk” napalingon ako sa nagsalita, si Victoria… Why is she still here and why does she need to talk to Olivia. We are at the open foyer having cocktails. Before Olivia could even say anything...

“Did you really have to run to him and tell him what you saw?” masungit nitong sabi kay Olivia… What the hell is she talking about.

“Ms. Victoria, let's not talk here” halos pabulong na sabi ni Olivia… nag palinga linga rin ito.

“Why? So no one would know you're a telltale… a squealer” singhal na naman niya kay Olivia

“Victoria, not here” sabat ni Gia, saka hinila si Olivia palayo sa foyer, nag titinginan na rin kasi ang mga tao sa paligid. Walang magawa si Victoria kung hindi sumunod sa kanila… kasunod din si Jude.

Sinundan ko sila… kung tama ang narinig ko, may alam si Olivia tungkol sa kalokohan ni Victoria. But she did not tell me anything, si Tyron ang nagsumbong sa akin kung saan ko makikita ang haliparot na si Victoria kagabi.

“Ms. Robles! Stop! Answer me now!” halos sumigaw na si Victoria

Natuloy tuloy lang sila nila Gia… palabas papunta sa may Pool area malayo sa mga taong pwedeng makarinig.

“Ms. Robles!”

“Will you stop shouting” tiim bagang sabi dito ni Olivia

“I did not tell him anything, it was none of my business. So you are barking at a wrong tree” paliwanag niya

“You’re the only one who saw me last night, how would he knew if not for you” akusa naman ni Victoria

“I don’t know, why don’t you ask him” balik ni Olivia

“What is happening here?” hindi na ako nakatiis… she is accusing Olivia with something I think she really did not do.

“Samuel !” nagulat ko yata si Victoria

“What is the meaning of this Victoria?” tanong ko, umurong yata ang dila na babae… mag wo walk-out na sana ito… hinawakan ko ang braso niya para hindi maka alis

“So you wouldn’t tell me?” tahimik pa rin siya

“I heard everything… What Ms. Robles' saying is true, she did not tell me anything and even if she did you have no right to scold or chastise her. Who are you to do that?” tiim bagang kung sabi sa kanya

“Samuel, I’m sorry… I was so drunk last night, I didn’t know what I’m doing” sabi nito

“I don’t think so, you were able to walk from the bar to that room… so stop making excuses for your w*****g around. This is not the first time I’ve known about it… but lucky for me I caught you red handed. So I will repeat what I’ve said last night: We Are Done and you better go silently… you wouldn’t like me when I get more irate than I am now.” asik ko sa kanya

“Another thing, you better apologize to Ms. Robles… for dragging her into this” nagpupumiglas siya sa hawak ko… inirapan niya lang sina Olivia kasama si Gia at Jude, saka nag walk out.

“Victoria” singhal ko but the b*tch did not even look back.

“Did I hear it right? You two are done… in layman's term break na kayo” sabi ni Jude siya yata ang unang nakabawi sa gulat sa mga pangyayari. Tumango lang ako… kay Olivia ako nakatingin. Pumalakpak pa ito… saka hinawakan ang mukha niya pinipigilan tumili,

“Narinig niyo, we are free of the "antipatikang" girl” sabi niya sa dalawa… hinawakan niya braso ni Gia saka inalog alog ito

“Hindi kami bingi, narinig namin at naintindihan din… hindi kagaya mo kailangan pang mag verify talaga” nang aasar na balik sa kanya ni Gia… hinatak na din nito ang brasong hawak ni Jude.

“Gusto ko lang maka sigurado” sabay tawa nito… tahimik lang si Olivia

“Congratulations Boss” sabi ni Gia sa akin

“Iba ka din Boss, masaya ka yata na nag break kayo ng girlfriend mo” pang aasar niya

“Why is it bad to be happy?” asik ko sa kanya

“Hindi naman, unusual lang” balik niya

“Ms. Robles, you Ok?” tanong ko sa nanahimik na Olivia

“I’m fine, Mr. Aguila” tipid niyang sagot

“Can we talk?” tanong ko, pinagtaasan ako ng kilay ni Gia… napasinghap naman si Jude

“What?” singhal ko sa dalawa… tinawanan lang ako

“Huwag mong gawing rebound ang kaibigan namin?” banta sa akin ni Jude

“I just want to talk to her, your thinking is advance” natatawa kung sabi sa kanya, saka ako lumapit kay Olivia… hinawakan ko ito sa likod saka iginiya papalayo sa dalawa. She’s wearing a halter neckline tent dress that’s bare at the back. F*ck! I wanted to run my tongue on that well toned back.

I asked her about what Victoria is accusing her off, sabi niya nakita niya ito sa hallway papunta sa toilets kissing somebody else. Akala daw niya hindi naman siya nito napansin, kaya nagulat siya sa pag sugod nito sa kanya kanina.

Told her a shorter version of what that woman had done last night… iniwan ko kasi sa bar si Tyron kagabi may kailangan akong tapusing trabaho, siya ang nag text sa akin na may kalampungan si Victoria sa bar. Bumalik ako doon at pa simple silang kinunan ng pictures… balak kong gamitin yun para makipag break na nga. Inantay ko siyang bumalik sa kwarto niya pero ang makating babae sumama pa sa kalampungan niya sa kwarto nito at dahil nga naghahanap ako ng dahilan makipaghiwalay sinundan ko sila. At sumasang ayon sa akin ang pagkakataon, dahil yata sa pagmamadali nila naiwan nilang naka bukas ang pinto, kaya huling huli ko sila… “in action pa”.

“Kakaiba ka nga, masaya ka pa dahil sa paghihiwalay niyo” sabi niya pagkatapos ng kwento ko

“Well, She’s not you… I went crazy when I had to let you go and crazier when I couldn’t find you” pag amin ko sa kanya… pinanlakihan niya lang ako ng mata.

“Bolahin mo lelang mo” sabay tawa niya… - Just as I thought she wouldn't believe me, hindi ko na ipinilit ang gusto ko…

“Someday My Love, you will believe in me again… and that’s a promise” I gave her a peck in the lips at bago pa ako masapak… niyakap ko siya, saka inaya pabalik sa Function Rooms.

Someday My Love… I’ll make you love me again, I’ll make you trust me again, tama nga yata ang konsensya ko… You are the one made for me!
