Blaze King

"Hindi ka na sana nag-abala pang sunduin ako. I have my own car and I'm capable of driving it. You have your own work. Baka ma-late ka pa dahil sa akin."

I stole a quick glance at the beautiful man beside me and smiled. Even when his brows are furrowed or when he's not even putting something on his face, he still manage to look stunning and breathtaking.

How can I get luckier with this man? He's too beautiful to be true.

He looked really worried and bothered on his seat, and as much as I enjoy seeing him getting worried because of me, a smile on his lips still looks better. Inabot ko ang kamay niyang nakapatong sa kanyang bag habang nasa harapan pa rin ang paningin at pinisil iyon.

"I have capable men working on my company, babe. A few hours with you is more valuable than the money I get from our clients. Don't worry about me," I assured him before I brought his soft hands on my lips and kissed his knuckles a few times.

"Ang landi mo," ang narinig kong sabi niya. I looked at his face and saw him blushing and smiling cutely. It took me so much effort not to stop the car and kiss that damn tasty lips.

"I love flirting with you and seeing you smile like this. Parang ang sarap ng idiretso sa simbahan at pakasalan ka," I said honestly, my smile growing bigger.

Kung pwede lang sanang gawin 'yon, baka kanina ko pa pinaharurot ang sasakyan. But I know he's not yet ready to take this relationship to the next level. We just started a week ago and and I know my man still doubts me. I perfectly understand that. I broke his love and trust for a long time and it's not easy to fix what I broke.

"Gusto rin naman kitang pakasalan," I heard him say. It wasn't that loud, it sounded more like a whisper. "But I don't want to rush, Blaze. We will get there at the right time. We rushed things back then and it broke the both of us. Kaya let's take our time right now. Wala naman siguro tayong deadline?" Ang pagbibiro niya kaya muli akong napangite.

"Meron sana pero okay lang naman bumagsak, basta sa'yo," I teased back making him laugh loudly. Napatawa na lang din ako.

"Ang cheesy mo!"

I know I sounded so damn cheesy right now, but who cares? If I get to hear him laugh heartily like this then let's be cheesy for a lifetime.

"Sa'yo lang naman. You made me do and say things I wouldn't dare to do to anyone."

"I know," he commented. One corner of my lips lifted upwards as I raised my brow at his proud comment. "Subukan mo lang sabihin 'yan sa iba, bibilhan ko talaga ng metal bat si dad at ipapa-hunting ka."

I could feel myself getting goosebumps when Gabrielle's dad popped in my mind. That man knows how to indimidate people. I wouldn't even dare to be on his bad side again.

"I wouldn't even dare, babe. I prayed for you kahit hindi ako marunong n'on. Hindi ko na kakayin kung mawala ka pa ulit," I said truthfully.

I don't think I could bear losing him and our children again. Five——no, ten years of wasted time is enough.

"Good. I'll see you later. Thank you for the ride, Blaze," he said after I parked the car in front of his bridal house. He unbuckled his seatbelt and was about to open the door when I stopped him.

"Wait, babe," I held his arms to keep him from going out.

He looked at my hands on his arms at tinaasan ako ng kilay, "Yes?"

"Can I..." Malakas akong tumikhim. "Can I ask for a kiss?"

Nakita kong natigilan siya matapos marinig ang sinabi ko. He was flustered for a moment before clearing his throat. "B-Baka may makakita?"

"My car is tinted," I answered, lowering my voice more. A small smile slowly crept on my lips as I saw him getting more flustered.

"O-Okay."

Hindi na ako nag-aksaya pa ng oras. I towered his small body and claimed his luscious lips. I have been craving for this lips everyday kahit halos araw-araw ko na itong natitikman. His kisses were one of the reasons why I love making love with him back then. From the innocent, inexperience kisses we shared on our first night to the kisses we share today, all of it were addicting.

"Hmm..." I suck his bottom lip to ask for entrance. Hindi naman ako nabigo nang maring ko ang mahinang ungol niya. He tugged my hair when I successfully made my way inside his sweet mouth and invade it.

I suck his tongue a little harder, kaya mas lalong humigpit ang kapit niya sa suot-suot kong suit. I don't care if I'm going to attend a board meeting with a crumpled suit. What I care most is making this beautiful man underneath me feel how much I love and need him.

We kissed once more before letting go of each other's faces with a loud breathing.

I kissed his sweating forehead and exhaled his delicate scent. "I love you."

He wrapped his arms around my neck and sighed. "I know. I... I love you too. I always have."

I could feel my heart almost breaking my ribcage after I heard him say those lovely words I've been dying to hear from him once again.

I kissed his temple once again before letting go.

"Thank you," I could feel myself tearing up but I tried to held it back.
This is very out of character and embarassing but this man is making me more emotional day by day.

"Are you crying?" Ang gulat niyang tanong nang humiwalay siya sa akin. He cupped my face with his soft hands and grinned. "Oh My God! You're tearing up. Stop doing that. You're making me cry too."

His eyes became misty too. "I'm just happy, babe."

"Ako rin. Ang saya-saya ko, Blaze. Nakakatakot," he said truthfully. Worry flashed in his eyes for a brief seconds. I caressed his cheek with my thumb and met his stares.

"I know. Alam kong nakakatakot ang maaring maging kapalit ng sayang 'to, Gabrielle, but I wouldn't trade this happiness for anything. Let's face both storms and rainbows together in the future, baby. No more solo fights."

His face brightened up and nodded. "No more solo fights."

"I love you," I whispered and pressed a kiss on his lips once again.

"I love you too," he whispered back with the same intensity as mine.

This foreign feeling, I want this for the rest of my life. I want to share it with this man for the rest of our lives, until my hair grows white and my face wrinkles.

                 "SIR, you have received a mail from Leon King Medical Center this morning," ang pagpapaalam ng sekretarya ko sa akin nang makalabas kami ng conference room.

"Sinong nagdala?" Ang tanong ko matapos abutin ang puting envelope mula sa kanya. The Leon King Medical Center's logo was stamped at back.

"Dr. Leo King delivered it himself, sir. He was waiting for you but he had an important errand to attend. Babalik na lang po daw siya para kausapin kayo."

"Alright. Let Belgium attend my meeting with Ms. Isla Binetez later. Samahan mo siya doon and make sure he's not going to take our client on his bed. After he closes the deal, pull him out. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

Belgium is good at keeping his position but he's not good at keeping his dick inside his pants. Kaya kahit gusto kong pagtiwalaan ang gagong 'yon hindi ko magawa dahil halos ako lahat ang tagasunod sa mga kalat niya.

I went inside my office and my secretary went back to his usual spot outside my office. I sat on my seat at marahas na napabuntong hininga. Those old farts really know how to get into my nerves sometimes.

Dinampot ko ang puting envelope mula sa lamesa at binuksan iyon. I unfolded the paper placed inside and read what was written on it. Matapos kong mabasa ang nakasulat doon agad ko iyong nilukamos at itinapon sa basurahan.

Probability of Maternity = 99. 999%

I clenched my jaw as I try to breath deeply to calm myself. But that woman's face kept on pestering my mind. That woman is my mother.

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang gagawin ko. Should I be happy? Should I be mad? Dapat ko ba siyang sumbatan sa pag-iwan niya sa akin? Dapat ko ba siyang puntahan at yakapin na parang hindi niya ako iniwan mag-isa sa impyernong 'yon?

After she called my father's name and I saw that huge scar at the side of her face, close to her ears, I knew she was that woman.

It wasn't that hard to recognize the woman who abandoned her child for her freedom.

Marami akong gustong sabihin at itanong sa kanya. Gusto ko siyang sumbatan at sigawan. I wanted to curse her. I wanted her to regret leaving me.

But how could I do that after seeing her current state? She's already broken even before I could start.

I snatch my phone from my table and dialed familiar numbers on it. Saglit itong nag-ring bago dinampot ng kabilang linya ang tawag.

"Mr. King."

"I want to talk to my father privately, Mr. Salvador. I'll be there in an hour."

"Copy, sir."

I walked out of my office after checking the time. 1:50 pm. I still have enough time to break someone's face.

Pinaharurot ko ang sasakyan patungo sa bilanguang kinalalagyan ng ama ko. He was regarded as a high-profile inmate after he was convicted and sentence with life imprisonment for six murders, tax evasion, security fraud and obstruction of justice.

That man will die in jail. Sinisigurado kong hinding-hindi na niya ako masasaktan at ang pamilya ko.

After travelling for almost an hour, I found myself sitting in front of a familiar man in a small storage room.

He looked thinner and older than the last time I saw him. Despite the clear bruises on his face and the handcuffs on his hands, hindi pa rin nabura ang nang-aasar na ngise sa kanyang mukha.

"Look what we have here. Did my traitor of a son suddenly missed his dear father? Hm?"

I mirrored the evil grin he had on his face and stood up. "Yeah, I really missed you, dad. I missed doing this to YOU!"

Itinaas ko ang paa ko at malakas na tinadyakan ang tiyan niya. "Argh! Fuck!"

I did noy waste my time and kick him at the same. Mas lalo ko itong nilakasan hanggang sa matumba siya kasama ang upuan niya.

Lumapit ako sa kanya at inapakan siya sa leeg. Just like the way he would step on my face everytime I fail him.

"Where did you throw her?" Ang kalmado kong tanong sa kanya. I placed my hands inside the pockets of my jeans to stop myself from punching his face.

"Her?" Kahit nahihirapan nagawa pa rin niyang ngumise sa akin. "Ang walang kwenta mong ina ba ang tinutukoy mo, anak? I'm not really sure. After I fed her some drugs, siya naman ang ipinakain ko sa mga tauh——"

I did not let him continue to open his filthy mouth and stomped on that goddamn face. There's no need to use my hands on this man. Kasing dumi rin naman siya ng lupa kaya mas nababagay sa kanya ang mga paa ko.

"Papatayin kitang ingrato ka! How dare you do this to me, you little fucker. Hindi ka malalagay diyan sa pwesto mo kung hindi dahil sa akin! Wala kang utang na loob!"

Malakas akong natawa sa sinabi niya. "Utang na loob? This is what you gave me, dad. You gave me hatred. I'm just giving it back to you."

Hindi ko tinigilan ang pagapak at pagsipa sa mukha at katawan niya hanggang sa magsawa ako. I stormed out of that goddamn place without sparing him a single glance.

Gabrielle taught me about forgiveness and acceptance. I forgive my father for all the things he had done to make my life a mess. But even if I forgive him, it doesn't mean I'm ready to welcome him in my life again.

If you want to cut off the people who had caused you great pain, suffering and trauma, then do it. If it's going to heal your wounds, go on. You're not a fucking saint.
