21 Chapter 18 - Nilabasan sa Mukha (1/2)
Ate Juris was right, #FindingCece quickly died, like it never even happened. I had my five minutes of fame and now everybody seemed to have forgotten me again. I was never completely invisible tho, I was one of the known nerds. However, in my high school, nerds are not cool.
Teacher Kim and I have had plenty of time together because of our competition prep reviews every Monday. I became less uncomfortable or weird in his presence. We started talking often after class and sometimes, we would walk together in the hallways.
His rabid fans weren't happy of course, they kept on giving me stabbing stares. If only they knew the things Teacher Kim and I have been doing in the past couple of weeks, they would definitely stab me to death.
My sex god and I have become more experimental too; a few days after the Founder's Day Weekend night, we had sex at the Pleasure Dungeon again. He was more brutal; he used several sex toys too, including a vaginal clamp, floggers, and several types of cuffs and other restraining accessories. Since then, we had sex almost everyday, weekends lang ang pahinga.
It turned out, despite the brutishness of our daily sexual encounters, instead of looking and feeling exhausted afterwards, I was actually rejuvinated. I realised, I liked the pain that Teacher Kim was giving me; I even considered, I might be a masochist.
Tatlong sabado na rin kaming lumalabas ni Teacher Kim on a 'date'. Siyempre, hindi alam nila kuya na siya ang kasama ko, I've made very compelling alibis. But since that time that Dad caught us having the 'date' conversation, which of course we responded with a lie, Dad encouraged me to try it, responsibly, of course. He insisted na 'wag ko daw i-deprive ang sarili ko to have these kinds of teenage experiences. I felt awful and guilty, of coures, when he was so sincere giving me that advice, since I have just been fucked brutally all night.
”Yea, I know, I haven't seen him too for sometime now. Last week nga, I went wednesday, thursday, friday and sat, he was a no show. Weird,” said the girl on the opposite side of my locker block.
”Maybe he goes to a different club now?” tanong ng isa pang babae.
”I don't think so. I heard he's friends with the owners of Fort Club kaya lagi na siyang andun since it opened. Besides, he was also an attraction point, madami ngang new faces pumupunta because of him, which of course, we don't like. But still, it's the hottest club in town,” sagot naman ng ikatlong babae.
The conversation I was overhearing piqued my curiosity. I was changing into my sportswear for the P.E class at alam ko ako na lang naiwan from my class. I assumed the conversation was by twelve graders.
”Do you think he's dating someone na? I mean he goes to Fort Club para lumandi, and madalas he leaves with a girl too. Maybe he met some girl that keeps him busy now.”
”First, I hate that girl. But second, I don't think so. Because third, I'm the girl Teacher Kim will be dating, and you know, I know how to keep him busy.”
”You, slut!”
”Thanks for the compliment!”
Tumawa silang tatlo ng malalandi. Tumililing naman ang tenga ko sa narinig ko, I had my suspicions, and I was right, si Teacher Kim nga ang pinaguusapan nila. Siya naman ang madalas topic sa girls locker then si coach Tag at si Blue, and then some more heartthrob boys in school.
”Cece! Hey there,” bati sa'kin ni coach Tag na kasalubong kong lumabas ng locker.
I forced a smile. ”Coach.”
”You're in great form, Cece. Have you been working out?”
I was wearing black sports leggings at fitted din and zip pullover ko kaya may porma ang katawan ko. Kinilabutan naman ako sa tanong niya at sa may pagkabastos niyang tingin sa katawan ko.
”Uhm, no sir. Just, P.E class,” I answered. I argued inside my head if I should walk faster to get away from him or just walk along side him since, well, he's my teacher.
”Then I must be doing something great to make you look like that,” komento niya; without showing my face, nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa sinabi niya and the way he said it.
Nagpatuloy pa siya. ”You know, something's different about you. You're glowing.”
I was leaning to not just walk faster but run away from him, but I thought not. ”Uhm, thanks po, I guess.”
”If I didn't know any better, I'd think you now have a boyfriend.”
Bigla akong napalingon sa kaniya. ”Wha-w-why, would you, think that? I don't have a boyfriend po, sir.” Yumuko ako at umiwas na lang sa tingin niya.
”Like I said, you're glowing. I can always tell when a girl just had her first--” napalingon ulit ako sa kaniya, ”love. Oh, believe me, I've witnessed hundreds of first loves here in high school. The best of first loves happen in high school, right?”
Ngumiti siya na parang may double meaning, his eyes were suggestive, I started to feel anxious.
”Hindi ko po alam. Not for me siguro.”
”You know, you get a lot of firsts in high school, Cece. But it's the second ones that make all the experience better, second ones do it better. So keep your options open, don't just settle. You're young, and a girl like you? - you have all the choices in the world.”
I was bothered with that unsolicited advice, and he sounded way too suggestive for me. I thought, a teacher should not talk this way, but then, who was I kidding? I've let a teacher took away my virginity.
I swallowed air and released it in a chuckle. ”I honestly don't get what you mean coach, pero, well, I better run to my classmates na po. Para a little warm up run na rin.”
Tumigil ako sa pagtakbo at naghabol ng hininga nang makarating ako sa conjunctive gate ng school to the track and field. Not only was I genetically deficient of sports genes, I also have an innate aversion to exercises. To think that my parents were sports royalties ng school, I've considered on many moments that I might be adopted. But then, the year book photos and just as everybody said, I look like the exact reincarnation of my mother when she was my age, then with the brains of my father. Some even joked, it's likely to be my four brothers who may have been adopted.
A sudden rush of cold air flowed through my skin when someone grabbed me to a small corridor near the gate, I squealed and it echoed.
I instantly recognized the scent; he shooshed me. ”Quiet, it's me.”
May kaunting lakas ko siyang hinampas sa dibdib. ”Would you stop doing that! Creeping up behind me like that. I'm too young to die of a heart attack!”
”Sorry,” he cupped my face, ”I couldn't help it. You're too adorable when you get scared.”
I shook my head with a forced half smile, making an expression. ”What are you doing here? May P.E class pa ako, and coach Tag isn't far behind.”
”I did a run earlier. When I saw your class came in, I waited for you here, hoping to catch you,” he said, almost whispering, his voice was low and airy.
Bukod sa boses niya, may hatid na libog din sa akin ang pawisang katawan ni Teacher Kim, and I just wanted to bury myself in his scent. Dahil sa pawis, bakat ang muscles at abs niya sa t-shirt niya, bakat din ang umbok ng ari niya sa suot niyang sweatpants.
I wasn't sure, pero hindi malayong umabot din sa ekspresyon ng mukha ko ang kilig ko kay Teacher Kim. Lately, I noticed na may kakaibang kilig na akong nararamdaman sa kaniya, lalo na kapag he make the extra efforts to pull me or grab me into a hidden corner para lang halikan ako, and then he'll walk-out and leave me hanging.
”I was late. So kanina ka pa dito?”
His forehead crease tightened. ”Err, yes. Wait, were you late with coach Tag?”
”Hmmm, why asks?”
”Don't be so cute, Cece. I'd eat you right now.”
Napayuko, kamot sa batok at napakagat labi na lang ako sa hiya, kilig at libog. ”Nope, nagkasabay lang kaming lumabas ng lockers.
”What? Why?”
Napakunot noo ako sa reaksyon niya, I thought the question didn't make sense. ”Why what? Nagkasabay lang, what's more to say about that?”
His jaw tightened, sumungit din ang mga mata niya. ”I don't like you talking to him. Unless its class, don't talk to him.”
”Boss much?” I rolled my eyes. ”Hmmmm. Hate the competition?” I teased coyly.
Disgust masked his face. ”Huh! He won't be a competition,” his face darkened. ”You're mine, Cece.”
Nagulat ako sa sinabi niya at pagkakasabi niya, bumilog ang mga mata ko. But then humor reversed my expression. ”I didn't mean me. I meant your competition as the school heartthrob.”
He sniggered. ”Bollocks! I don't give a rats arse about that. That knobhead could wear a crown and a sash for all I care.”
Natawa na lang ako ng bahagya, napahawak ako sa abs niya at nilukot ko ng isang kamao ang bandang laylayan ng damit niya, matapos ay inilapit ko ang ilong ko para singhutin siya. Masarap ang bango ng pawis niya, napapikit na lang ako.
His thumb stroked my chin and the side of my lips, then he lifted my face and he just gazed at me. Sinubukan kong tapatan ang mga tingin niya, pero hindi ko mapigilang madistract sa iba pang parte ng mukha niya. Ang gwapo niya lang talaga. Mangilang pagkakataon na rin ako napapaisip at hindi makapaniwala na akin na siya, ang matagal kong pinagnanasaan na si Teacher Kim ay natikman ko na.
Lumapit ang mukha niya at dumampi ang labi niya sa akin. Lately, his kisses were less fierce and more romantic, parang mga halik sa pelikula.
”I gotta go. Coach Tag will be here soon,” I mumbled.
”He can't see us here.”
”Fine. But someone else might. Why, ano ba balak mong gawin?” tinaasan ko siya ng kilay.
I gasped when he slid his massive hand inside my leggings. ”Uhm, this?” he teased.
Napakapit ang dalawa kong kamay sa braso niya nang pinasok niya ang isang daliri niya sa butas ko. ”Stop. We can't, not here.”
”You are so fuckin' tight, Cece.”
”I'm sore,” I snapped at him. ”Just, stop it, take your hands off na.”
We just stared at each other habang naglabas-pasok ang daliri niya sa butas ko. Malagkit ang mga tingin niya, bahagyang nakabukas ang bibig niya. May pangamba akong nararamdaman pero hindi ko rin maitanggi ang sarap na nararanasan.
”Have I ever told you how beautiful you are?”
”Oo na,” tinarayan ko siya while trying to push his hand off of me. ”Tama na. Stop na kasi, someone might see us.”
”Oh no! What do I do? I can't stop. You're so tight my hand is stuck,” he teased coyly.
I gasped harder when two of his jumbo fingers slid inside me, naramdaman ko ang malapunit na sakit; napakapit na lang ako sa dibdib niya. Isinandal niya ako sa dingding at humalik siya ng mapusok sa akin, habang walang habas na lumaro ang kamay at daliri niya sa aking hiwa.
