I was loyal to her.
I loved my beautiful wife until now…
She’s the love of my life..
I vowed to her….to be faithful and loyal.
I was…not until then.
“Hope will lie to you, but lust is what it is; it never lies.” —Laurell K. Hamilton.
“I have to go, honey. Don’t wait for me at dinner, okay? “
“Alright. Drive safely. “
I gave my wife a long, torrid kiss as if we were in our honeymoon phase. I’ve married her for ten beautiful years with one adorable son. My wife is such a lovely human being.
Habang nagmumuni kung paano ko susurpresahin si Lorraine sa susunod na date namin, an unregistered number popped on my phone.
“Hello”
“Pre, Jason pala to. Kararating ko lang, nakitawag lang ako kay esme. Punta ka mamaya ha? “
“Oy, Jason. Kumusta na? Glad you’re back. Gamitin mo nga yung cellphone mo, muntik ko na di sagutin. “
Tumawa lang ang lalaki sa kabilang linya, reminded me to not miss his party somewhere in a bar.
Pagdating ko sa opisina ay tinext ko muli ang asawa ko at nagpaalam na gagabihin ako mamaya. As always, she was very understanding and even told me to enjoy. Byernes na naman at maaga akong matatapos mamaya.
Well, I need to finish and open my desktop with my wife and son’s wallpaper on the beach. My wife is indeed a beauty, and my son looks like me. I couldn’t ask for more.
Somewhere around ******* city,
Nasa VIP area ang limang lalaki sa second floor ng club.
He calmly approached them as he had just finished his work later than usual.
“Oy, here comes the married man of the group” ani ng mga kaibigan at nagtawanan. Inabot nila sa akin ang isang bote ng beer. I texted my wife as i sit beside my bestfriend with a woman beside her. Still, the typical fucker in the group.
“Did you tell Lorraine na bukas ka na makakauwi?”
My eyebrows met as I drank.
“Anong bukas, uuwi ako mamaya. Ayaw ko maglasing. May date kami sa linggo”
“Aba, aba. Masyadong inlove tong si totoy. Hindi ka naman under dyan sa asawa mo?”
Nagtawanan ang mga loko.
“Nope. Lorraine is my wife. A happy wife means a happy life.”
“Naku pare, di lang naman ikaw ang nakatali dito ano. Sadyang inlove ka masyado sa asawa mo, kita mo, three years from now. You’ll end up like us” sagot ng isa sa mga kaibigan ko. Hiwalay sa asawa. May dalawang anak pero papalit palit ng babae.
Nagpanting ang tenga ko sa narinig. What an asshole! Nakakuyom ang aking kamao at pinilit na ngumiti. Nakainom na ang mga gago. Kung ano ano na ang pinagsasabi.
Jason stared at me with a meaningful look; I don’t want to be fucking asshole too and end the night early, so I’ll try to let it pass this time. Only this time. Motherfucker’s mouth won’t be spared next time we’re out.
I just smiled. “I’m more loyal than you think,” The group responded with an endless laugh and continued with their conversation. I’m exchanging messages with my dear wife.
“Pare, Anong oras na? Sigurado ka ba na dadating yung mga putahe na inorder mo?”
“Oo naman, bayad na yun. Naka upfront payment na ako doon. “
Anong putahe ba naman ang pinagsasabi ng dalawang ito? Wait, wait,….Damn, I immediately turn to my bestfriend for a confirmation. He gave me that look again. Fuck, I mouthed” What about Celine? “
He did not respond. Mga gago talaga, di na nagbago. Idadamay pa ako sa kagaguhan nila. I’m way over that phase or so i thought.
“I’m going home” ani ko at tumayo. Their smiles faded when i stand up and passed them and went straight to stairs. Hinarangan naman ako ng mga kaibigan.
“Pre, ang KJ mo pa rin. We were just joking.”
“I am sorry, dre. Nakainom lang but seriously, it’s been years since we had this gathering. Pagbigyan mo naman ako”
I looked at them intently. Bunch of idiots. Jason and the rest of the group were my Elementary classmates and high school friends kaya kilala ko ang mga likaw ng bituka nila.
“Gago” I muttered. They laughed once again and teased me that I should have been a priest and accepted the offer. Oh, what a bunch of idiots. Jason, Rico, and Michael were my childhood friends, and Norman, and Steven were my high school friends.
Inakay naman nila ako pabalik sa second floor.
“Wag niyo ako isama sa mga kagaguhan niyo” sigaw ko dahil sa lakas nang musika.
Bumalik ako sa pwesto at tinext ang asawa ko na di ako makakauwi. Binigyan naman nila ako ng alak. Habang abala ang iba sa paghihintay daw ng mga “putahe” ay nandoon ako sa sulok at inieenjoy ang musika.
I saw Jason smirk and approach me. He breathed in my left ear, ” Iba ang tawag ng laman,pre. Once you get a taste of it, it’s fucking irresistible. Hahanap hanapin mo” and continued drinking. He did not wait for my response and baka maulit pa yung ginawa ko sa kanya, two fucking years ago. I know that he knows I’m still fuming mad at him for what he did to his wife.
Lorraine and his ex-wife are good friends, kaya nung sumabog ang balita na nahuli ng asawa niya ang tarantado sa mismong kwarto nilang mag asawa ay napatiim ang aking bagang. What a fucking loser.
“Hon, I hope we’ll not gonna end up as a separated couple” panlalambing sa akin ng asawa ko. Risa stayed with us for a few days before returning to her parents. On the other hand, Jason immediately left the country after a month of settling the issue with her ex’s family.
“Of course, honey. Who told you that i’ll be a jerk like him?” palambing ko siyang hinila papunta sa aking kandungan habang masuyong hinahaplos ang hita niya. Kagagaling ko lang nun sa condo ni Jason bago ang flight niya para komprontahin na nauwi sa suntukan.
“Oh, I’m still the luckiest woman ever to marry you, honey! “She cupped my face and lovingly kissed me. Medyo masakit pa rin ang panga ko dahil sa tinamong suntok pero di ko mapigilan malibogan sa asawa kong suot ang T-shirt ko at bakat na bakat na ang mga utong.
A simple kiss with an invitation of tongue to enter her mouth sparked a fire inside of us, sa simpleng hagod ko sa kanyang likod ay ungol ko na ang narinig niya. The sound of slurping and her soft little moans made me carry her to our bed. “Damn,” I muttered and kiss her once again after she let out a giggle while holding onto me as we walked toward our bed.
“Parang masusundan ata si Ali ah” she said as she started kissing me on my neck, he nibbled it and lick, it as her hand was tracing my body down to my crotch. She glide her tongue down to my nipples and started to suck it like a baby, lick, and kiss. All i could do was to moan and grabbed her hair as she wanted me to. She nibbled my nipples which i found at first, gayish thing to do, but she sucked it so good. All i could remember that time before losing my sanity was her smile.
That night, my face might be punched by an asshole but i had one of the best lovemaking sessions with Lorraine.
