And just like an apt pupil, Kirsten obeyed Quaro's command and went to him. Paluhod siyang huminto sa harapan nito, ipinikit ang mga mata saka hinintay ang mga labi nitong dumikit sa kaniya

And it didn't take long before it happened. Quaro's warm lips lightly brushed against hers, teasing, tasting—before he opened her mouth and slid his tongue in; gentle but demanding.

Her hands reached for his neck, slowly crawled up, digging her fingers into his smooth hair before cupping his head and pulling him close to her.

And that deepened the kiss. She opened her mouth and delved her tongue into his, just like how he did it. Their tongues met and battled for what people called a French kiss. It was nice, she liked it. Quaro's tongue tasted like candy she couldn't help but suck it.

Which made him lose his control.

Quaro let out a soft growl, low in his throat, before circling his arms around her, gathering her against him.

Their warm bodies pressed, and she quivered when Quaro gently laid her down. They rolled over on the wooden floor, as they tangled together, still kissing torridly. Now, he was on top of her, and his hands started to seek entrance into her sweatshirt.

And she prepared herself because she already knew where it would lead them.

Not until he released her lips and stared at her flushed face.

"You should rest," anito, ang mga mata'y nagbabaga.

"Why?" salubong ang kilay niyang tanong. Halata naman sa anyo ni Quaro na hindi pa nito nais na huminto—o matapos ang inumpisahan nila. She knew, and felt, that Quaro needed her as much as she did. But... why?

"Isang oras kang naglakad at ilang bundok ang inakyat mo, hindi ba?' he teased, pulling his hands off her shirt. His thumb then gently touched her swollen lips. "You wouldn't be able to handle me anyway, so just rest for tonight. Bukas ng umaga ay gigisingin kita para—"

"Para bumawi?"

"No, silly." Natawa ito. "Sa dulo ng ilog ay may maliit na falls, doon ay maraming isdang mabibingwit. We're heading there tomorrow morning."

Napanguso siya, lalo nang tumayo na si Quaro at inalalayan siyang makatayo na rin.

Well, it's true that her body was sore from the long-distance walk, but if Quaro would... take her, bakit siya tatanggi?

Isang buntong-hininga na lang ang pinakawalan niya saka pinanood itong ayusin ang kama. He then placed a sheet on it and took out pillows from the hiding place. Ang panghihinayang na nararamdaman niya sa biglang pag-atras ni Quaro ay natakpan ng pagkamangha nang makita ang secret area na iyon sa ilalim ng sahig. Doon nakatago ang kama kanina, mga una, at ilan pang mga sheets.

Ilang sandali pa'y sinenyasan na siya nitong lumapit.

Isa pa muling buntong-hininga ang kumawala sa kaniya bago siya bantulot na lumapit. Pakiramdam niya'y para siyang gubat na lumagablab sa sobrang init at biglang umulan ng malakas kaya napuksa ang apoy.

Paglapit ay anong gulat niya nang biglang hinila ni Quaro ang laylayan ng suot niyang sweatshirt at sa panggilalas niya lalo ay hinubad iyon.

Ano ba talaga ang gusto ni Quaro? Aarya o hindi aarya?

"You don't sleep beside me with your clothes on, remember?"

Oh.

Napangisi ito at dinampian siya ng halik sa mga labi bago tumalikod. Kasabay ng paghakbang nito patungo sa banyo ay ang paghubad nito ng suot na T-shirt. At nang makapasok na ito doon at maisara na ang pinto ay napasimangot siya.

"Salbahe," aniya saka padabog na humiga sa kama.

***

Tulad ng sinabi ni Quaro ay nagising sila nang maaga kinabukasan, Quaro brought her to the falls and taught her how to fish. It was her first time and she didn't know what to do. Wala siyang interes sa ganoon pero sumakay siya sa agos dahil ayaw niyang isipin nito na hindi siya masayang kasama.

It only took them less than an hour to catch some. Tulad ng sinabi nito'y maraming isda roon. They grilled the fish and ate them, doon niya napagtantong masarap kumain ng isda lalo kung siya mismo ang nakahuli.

Pagkatapos niyon ay nag-ikot sila sa gubat; Quaro showed her the whole area. May ilan siyang nakitang mga bear trap sa paligid—na hindi para sa mga oso kung hindi para sa mga tresspassers na hindi marunong magbasa ng mga warning signs. Sa kabilang dako ng gubat, sa labas ng sakop na lupain ng pamilya nito ay naroon naman ang area kung saan pwedeng manghuli ng mga baboy ramo.

Unfortunately, they couldn't catch one, dahil malibang kailangan nila ng aso upang tumayong tracker ay walang dalang panghuli o pangtali si Quaro. But they found another hunter, and they watched the guy as he and his dogs cornered a wild boar. Hindi kinaya ni Kirsten na panoorin kung paanong patumbahin ng mangangaso ang baboy ramo kaya niyaya na nito si Quaro na umalis. She just couldn't watch the cruelty. Hindi niya inasahang ganoon pala ang proseso niyon.

Habang naglalakad sila pabalik sa cabin ay may ilang puno silang nadaanan—punong may bunga. Puno ng caimito, mangga, at langka. She asked him to get a piece of mango for her, may nakita siyang hinog sa mababang bahagi ng puno, but Quaro declined. Sa halip ay binuhat siya nito at tinulungang maka-kuha ng isa.

Overall, it was a fun day for her. And she enjoyed every minute she spent with Quaro. She would surely bring the memories she had on the day for the rest of her life.

And she knew that was the only thing she would bring once the 100-day was over.

The memories.

"Paano kang natutong gumawa ng tinapay?"

Iminulat ni Quaro ang mga mata nang marinig ang tanong ni Kirsten. Kasalukuyan itong nakasandal sa gilid ng jacuzzi, ang mga braso ay naka-lahad sa magkabilang panig habang ang kalahati ng katawan ay nakababad sa ilalim ng tubig.

Si Kirsten na nasa harap nito at nakalubog ang hanggang balikat sa tubig ay diretsong nakatitig sa binata. She was just trying to make a conversation; matapos ang nakapapagod na araw na iyon ay nagpasiya silang dumiretso sa jacuzzi para i-pahinga ang katawan habang nakababad sa maligamgam na tubig.

"Why do you want to know?" seryosong tanong ni Quaro.

Nagkibit-balikat siya. "Para mas makilala pa kita ng lubos?"

"Why?"

"Anong... why?"

"Para ano at gusto mo pa akong makilala ng lubos? Hindi ba at sinagot ko na halos lahat ng mga katanungan mo kaninang umaga?"

Oh yes, he did. Tulad noong tinanong niya ito tungkol sa paborito nitong kulay, paboritong pagkain, paboritong foreign film, at kung anu-ano pa na sinagot nito ng diretso. She thought it was another level unlocked, dahil dati ay ayaw na ayaw nitong nagtatanong siya ng kahit ano tungkol dito.

"But those were just petty questions and—"

"And they weren't enough?"

Siya naman ngayon ang kinunutan ng noo. "Teka, kailangan mo ba talagang magalit? Pwede mo namang sabihin na ayaw mong pag-usapan, hindi kailangang supladuhan mo ako."

"But why the hell do you want to know, Kirsten? Ano'ng gagawin mo sa mlalaman mo kung pagkatapos ng isandaang araw ay maghihiwalay din naman ang mga landas natin?"

Hindi ba pwedeng h'wag na lang paghiwalayin? nais niyang itanong pero minabuti niyang manahimik na lang at iiwas ang tingin.

Si Quaro, nang matauhan sa in-akto ay sandaling natigilan. Tila nito binalikan sa isip ang mga sinabi, at nang maisip na hindi naging rasonable ay napabuntong-hininga at itinuon din ang pansin sa ibang direksyon—doon sa maliit na bintana ng jacuzzi room.

"It reminds me of my biological mother," anito makalipas ang ilang sandali.

Nang marinig iyon ay unti-unti siyang pinanlakihan ng mga mata; dahan-dahang nilingon si Quaro na ang anyo ay nawalan ng emosyon.

"I have a vague memory of my biological mother. Basta ang malinaw lang sa akin, at ang tangi kong naaalala, ay may babae akong laging kasama sa kusina noong bata pa ako. She would always cook something for me and I'd stay in the kitchen to watch her. Her most favorite part of the day was the afternoon, it was her scheduled time for baking. I got more interested in baking so I asked her to teach me, and I remember her teaching me how to mix ingredients and knead the dough. Her bread was delicious, I could still remember that. And she was very beautiful. Her hair was the longest I have ever seen in my life.

Ang huling naaalala ko sa kaniya ay noong... umalis siya at nangakong babalik. Pero hindi nangyari iyon. Otherwise, I wouldn't be here."

Napakurap siya, hindi inasahang magbubukas ng topiko si Quaro tungkol sa totoong ina. Did she just unlock another level?

"Kaya ka ba nagalit kanina dahil naalala mo ang tunay mong ina sa naging tanong ko?"

Napabuntong-hininga ito. "Ayaw ko lang na bumalik sa alaala ko ang mga araw na matiyaga akong naghintay sa pagbalik niya. I was hungry and tired, pero hindi na siya bumalik pa."

"Galit ka ba sa kaniya?"

Matagal siyang tinitigan ni Quaro na tila pinag-iisipan kung ano ang tamang sagot sa tanong niya. Nagbabago-bago ang emosyong nasa mga mata nito, naroon ang pagdadalawang-isip sa anyo.

Until...

"No. Nalulungkot ako sa nangyari sa kaniya—sa nangyari sa aming pamilya."

"At ayaw mong maging malungkot kaya ayaw mong pinag-uusapan ang tungkol sa ilang personal na bagay. Now I understand."

Muli ay namayani ang katahimikan sa kanilang dalawa. Quaro just stared at her for a long time, and so did she. Kung ayaw na makipag-usap ni Quaro tungkol sa personal nitong buhay ay gagalangin niya iyon. This would be the last time she'd ask him anything about his life.

"Anong masasabi mo sa araw na ito?" pagbubukas at pag-iiba ni Quaro ng topiko. "Did you enjoy it?"

"Boring ang pangingisda," she admitted shyly. "But I enjoyed the rest of the day. Lalo na noong nasa manggahan tayo. KJ ka nga lang dahil hindi mo ako binuhat. Dapat pala talaga naghuhubad ako para gawin mo'yon."

Quaro chuckled and said nothing.

"Alam mo ba kung ano ang reyalisasyon ko sa araw na ito?"

"Hmm? What is it?"

"Na kahit gusto ko ang tao ay hindi ko magawang pilitin ang sarili kong magustuhan ang bagay na gusto niyang gawin. Kaya naisip kong tigilan na ang pagpapa-impress sa'yo."

His mouth crinkled into a smile. "Why would you even do that?"

"Para ma-impress ka, syempre."

"I already am, Kirsten." This time, his face and voice softened. "We wouldn't be here together if I wasn't impressed with you."

"So... gusto mo na rin ako?"

Sa halip na sagutin ang tanong niya ay ngumiti lang ito. At nang makita niya ang pagkilos nito ay inihanda niya ang sarili.

He took her hand and gently pulled her to him. Nagpaubaya siya, at nang makalapit na siya'y ipinuwesto siya sa harapan nito—in a spooning position—her back facing him. Ang kamay ni Quaro ay pumulupot sa baywang niya, habang siya nama'y hindi mapakali nang maramdaman ang matigas na bagay sa pagitan ng mga binti nito—na nauupuan niya!

"Lay your back on me," he demanded.

At tulad ng dati ay sumunod siya. At may palagay siyang walang sasabihin si Quaro na hindi niya susundin.

Nahiga siya sa dibdib nito at ipinikit ang mga mata nang maramdaman ang init ng katawan nito na dumadampi sa kaniya.

Oh, the water per se was already warm, pero iba ang init na nararamdaman niya sa mga sandaling iyon. Something that was also... burning her soul.

At nang yumuko si Quaro upang hagkan siya sa balikat ay napapikit na lang siya at hinayaan itong namnamin ang kaniyang balat.

Quaro showered her neck and shoulder tender, little kisses, while his hands crawled up to cup her breasts. His lips on her skin were hot they left traces of fire on it. She was moaning every time he'd plant a kiss on her wet skin—Quaro was an expert when it came to pleasing a woman, she had tested and proven it.

Ang mga kamay nito ay naging malikot lalo. One was kneading her left breast while the other traveled down... to her abdomen. And further down...

Napamulat siya sabay hugot ng malalim na paghinga nang marating nito ang pakay. His index and middle finger massaged her softness, and all she could do was closed her eyes again and savored the moment. Napahawak pa siya sa magkabila nitong braso upang siguraduhing manatili ang mga kamay nito sa kinaroroonan.

"Let me show you how to properly touch yourself," he whispered in her ear before nibbling her lobe. Ang kamay nito sa ibaba ay nagpatuloy sa pagdama, nanunukso, nagbibigay ligaya sa katawan niya.

His huge fingers were driving her nuts, hindi niya alam kung magtatagal siya o magpapatangay sa agos ng pagnanasa hanggang sa marating niya ang mga bituin sa dako pa roon.

"Using your middle finger, gently... slowly... tease your pearl. Build tension and always think of me whenever you do it—whenever you do this."

Napalunok siya sabay liyad nang ginawa ni Quaro ang sinabi. His middle finger played and circled on her most sensitive part, pressing, rubbing.

"And then, using your index and middle finger, open these up." And just as he instructed, his index and middle fingers opened her labia—but just for a few seconds, because those very fingers played with her pearl again--caressing, pulling a little, making her writhe and whimper in uncontrolled desire.

"Keep on circling your finger on this part, caressing it until you start feeling like something is burning inside of you."

"P-Papaano kang... natuto sa mga bagay na ito?" she asked, breathlessly.

"Experience," he answered before sucking the flesh on her neck. He continued to play and tease down there, while his other hand continued to knead her breast, rubbing her taut nip with his thumb and index finger.

Malalalim na paghinga ang hinugot niya habang pinababayaan si Quaro na gawin ang lahat ng gusto nito sa kaniyang katawan. Hindi rin niya alam kung saan itutuon ang pansin—sa mga labi nitong dumadampi ng halik sa gilid ng kaniyang leeg, sa kamay nitong dumadama sa kaniyang dibdib, o sa isa pang nasa pagkakababae niya?

Not to mention, his hard cock poking behind her!

"Q-Quaro..."

"Hmm?" He fastened his movement, making her gasped and moan at the same time.

"Your fingers are..." she swallowed, "big and rough. And I like them."

Dumiin ang pagdama nito sa dibdib niya na sinagot niya ng malakas na pagsinghap, subalit kaagad ding nawala ang pansin niya roon nang may ginawa ito sa ibaba.

Now, his middle and ring fingers slid through her juiciness—slowly gaining entry.

Muli siyang napakapit ng mahigpit sa mga braso nito.

"You should go deep, for always, Kirsten. Your fingers should always fill this portal." And then, he thrust all in.

Isa pang malakas na ungol ang muli niyang pinakawalan sa ginawang iyon ni Quaro.

Later on, he started pulling out and pushing in urgently, passionately. At gustuhin man niyang makita ang ginagawa nito sa ibabang bahagi ng kaniyang katawan ay hindi niya magawa. She was arching her body and tilting her head backward in ecstasy, and Quaro took advantage of that by assaulting her neck with hot kisses.

Habang lumilipas ang mga minuto ay lumalakas nang lumalakas ang pag-ungol niya. she had nowhere to go but paradise.

"P-Please don't stop," she begged. She knew she was close to reaching her peak, she was so, so close. Kaya naman ayaw niyang huminto ito. May pakiramdam siyang kung hihinto si Quaro sa ginagawa sa katawan niya ay magugunaw ang mundo—at least ang mundo niya.

"Oh, no, Kirsten, I won't stop," he whispered, sensually licking the side of her neck. "I won't stop until you reach orgasm."

Hindi na niya napag-tuonan pa ng pansin ang mga huling sinabi ni Quaro nang unti-unting naipon ang init sa sentro niya, tumaas nang tumaas ang nararamdamang pagnanasa, hanggang sa pakiramdam niya'y mahuhulog na siya sa bangin nang walang katapusang ligaya.

Ang mga kamay niyang nakahawak sa mga braso ni Quaro ay dumiin; digging her fingernails on his skin, as she contracted and convulsed—before screaming his name and arching her body in absolute surrender.

Quaro slowed down, allowing her to enjoy this short torment, before stopping. His fingers still deep inside her as he softly touched her face with his other hand, drawing it to him, so he could claim her lips in an open-mouthed kiss.

She was still delirious when she responded to his kisses with equal hunger. And just like always, Quaro's lips devoured hers. His tongue explored her mouth.

And when she felt his fingers slowly pulling out, she shrunk her muscles to stop him. She didn't want him to release his huge fingers out of her wetness. Kung maaari nga lang ay manatili ang mga iyon doon...

Kaya nang tuluyang kumawala ang mga daliri nito sa katawan niya'y napa-ungol siya— and that's when Quaro released her lips and stared at her passion-filled face.

"I want you, Kirsten. Here. Now."

Bago pa man rumehistro sa isip niya ang mga sinabi nito'y bumaba na ang mga kamay ni Quaro sa baywang niya, at bago pa man niya mahulaan ang gagawin nito'y binuhat na siya nito at ini-lapag sa wooden floor.

Ang bilog na rim ng jacuzzi ay pantay lang sa sahig ng maliit na silid na iyon, kaya naman nang mai-upo siya roon ni Quaro ay napaluhod lang ito sa harapan niya.

His eyes still bored into hers when he said, "Lay your back on the floor for me..."

Wala siyang ideya kung ano ang plano nitong gawin, pero hindi siya nagtanong at sumunod na lang. Dahil alam niyang kahit ano pa ang gawin ni Quaro sa katawan niya ay siguradong magugustuhan din niya.

She gently laid her back on the floor, just as he instructed, while her eyes locked on his.

Quaro's hands caressed her thighs, slowly arousing her again. Unti-unti iyong umangat patungo sa kaniyang baywang, to her rib cage, to the sides of her breasts.

Isang mahabang ungol ang muli niyang pinakawalan nang ang mga kamay nito ay dumama sa kaniyang mga dibdib, ang ibabang bahagi ng kaniyang katawan ay umarko, at iyon ang sinamantala ni Quaro upang ibaba ang mga labi sa kaniyang puson.

He planted butterfly kisses on her abdomen, kissing the water away. His tongue found her navel and circled on it as if it was an ice cream cone. At nang bumaba pa nang bumaba ang mga labi nito ay doon na siya pinanlakihan ng mga mata.

And with a movement that startled her, Quaro urged her legs open with strong arms, cupped her buttocks in his hands, and lifted her hips to meet his mouth.

Doon muling umarko ang kaniyang katawan, kasunod ng isang impit na tili.

It was the first time Quaro gave her oral—and it felt so damn good.

With gentle, delicate strokes of his tongue, he brought her close to the edge numerous times she lost count. And she could do nothing but arch her body and moan in delirium.

Hindi pa nakontento si Quaro—ang isang kamay nito ay bumitiw sa kaniyang pang-upo upang muling dam'hin ang sensitibong parte niya.

His fingers opened her, slowly, gradually, insistently. With his index and middle fingers, he spread her moistness before lowering his head once more to devour her. He kissed and licked and sucked her sweet flesh, eating it so greedily like a hungry prisoner.

She writhed and danced underneath his mouth just as she always did whenever they do the act. And when his tongue sought entry, she panicked.

Biglang umangat ang ulo niya at sa nanlalaking mga mata ay pinanood kung paanong sakupin ng mga labi nito ang pagkababae niya. And when Quaro's tongue had finally pressed in, she cried his name aloud. Paulit-ulit na tila iyon dasal. Muli niyang inihiga ang sarili at mariing ipinikit ang mga mata. Her hands stroke his hair and pressed him more to her pussy.

Hindi siya makapaniwala sa tindi ng nararamdaman. Hindi niya akalaing may mas titindi pa sa mga nauna nilang ginawa. And right then and there she realized... and had finally concluded... that oral was her favorite sexual act of all.

"Oh, Quaro. Ano ba itong... ginagawa mo sa... katawan ko?" she muttered.

Quaro said nothing. But instead, he stroke his tongue in and out, as if imitating the sexual act.

Doon lalong lumiyo ang pakiramdam niya. Para siyang tinakasan ng katinuan. Paulit-ulit niyang binabanggit ang pangalan ni Quaro, paulit-ulit na nagmamakaawang huwag itong tumigil at ituloy lang iyon hanggang sa muli niyang marating ang kasukdulan.

She admitted she was being greedy, but she didn't care. Babawi na lang siya rito mamaya. And she would probably do the same later—and she meant, the oral.

Later on, Quaro released his tongue from her wetness and went back to licking and sucking her pearl. His index and middle fingers did wonders once again, thrusting in, taking over his tongue. And while he licked and sucked her clit, his fingers stroked and rubbed inside of her.

The slurping sound of his mouth against her wetness was making her nuts she almost lost her sanity.

Hindi nagtagal ay muling lumitaw ang mga bituin sa kaniyang balintanaw.

And once again, she climaxed—to his warm, savage, fucking mouth.
