[Play Music: Stockholm Syndrome -One Direction covered by Lisa Bakker.]

Simula

I confidently crosses the busy hallway, leading to the exit. My heels were clicking on the floor and all their gazes are on me, looking at me with pure amusement.

"Hi, Talya!" Kaway ng isang lalaki at nginitian ko ito ng matamis.

"Happy birthday, Talya!" Bati ng isang babaeng hindi ko kilala. Binalingan ko ito at maarteng kinawayan.

"Hey, girl! Happy birthday!" I stopped and looked at the girl together with her cheap gang.

I gave them the most recyclable smile I've ever had. And looked at them from head to foot, pathetics.

"Thank you, ladies." Kinindatan ko sila. They giggled which really irritates me but I still wore my stupid smile.

"Omg! Look at this dress." Ipinakita ng leader nila ang phone niya na may picture ng isang beige ugly dress.

"Maganda 'di ba? 'Yan ang susuotin ko mamaya sa party mo." She flipped her red hair and clicked her long fake nails.

"Oh, yeah." I commented, " See you later then." I said and walked past them.

"Happy birthday ulit girl!" Habol nilang tawag. Umikot ako and gave them a flying kiss.

"Social climbers." I hissed under my breath.

I walk presumptuously at the hallway. Some of the students wave their hands at me, smiles, greeted me. But what's above them all? Those set of different pairs of eyes that helds different emotions; amusement, insecurity, jealousy and hatred.

I just ignored those greedy and insecured eyes. They can't pulled me down nor reach me. I am, Talya Allegro. I am an Allegro.

But, I'm used to it. My father said that almost everyone will hate me for being me. Why? It's simply because my father is one of the famous filipino politician. He's the man behind the success of different businesses here in the province of Nueva Vizcaya.

And my mother? Well, she's the lady beside one of those most known, wealthiest man in the name of politics and business in this country.

But there is this one thing playing on my mind, naguguluhan ako, dahil bakit may mga taong gusto kang pabagsakin kahit na wala kang ginagawang masama?

Bakit may mga taong galit sa'yo kahit na nananahimik ka?

Jealousy?

Or

Hatred?

My phone vibrates and a message popped on the screen.

"See yah at the back of the campus, love you!" ~ Love.

I automatically smiled and slid my phone into my pocket.

I changed route and headed to the back side of the campus. While walking my phone rang and I answered the call without looking at the caller ID.

"Hey!" I answered informally.

"Talya." A cold voice answered. Napatigil ako sa paglalakad sa gitna ng tahimik na hallway.

Inilayo ko ang phone at tinignan kung sino ang nasa caller ID. Ibinalik kong muli sa tainga ko ang telepono.

"Dad..." I spoke trembling. Bakit naman kaya siya napatawag? Seconds past before he answered back.

"Your mom wants to speak to you." He said still with those cold voice.

"Okay..." Sagot ko ng kinakabahan. Bihira lang talaga tumawag sa'kin si Dad. It's like waiting for the government to regulate. But, my dad's an exception in terms of politics. He's good man. That's what I knew.

Ilang sandali ang lumipas at narinig ko ang boses ng aking ina.

"Mija!" She spoke.

"Happy birthday, Mija!" Masiglang bati nito.

"Mom," I said while laughing,

"Thank you." Sagot ko.

"How's your day going?" Narinig ko ang pagtunog ng blow dryer sa kabilang linya.

"Fine, mom!" Simpleng tugon ko.

"That's good to hear, mija! By the way, gusto kong maaga kang umuwi. Your party starts at 7pm, okay?" Paalala niya, I rolled my eyes again.

"7pm?" Tumingin ako sa relos pambisig ko, alas dos pa lang ng hapon.

"Pero parang nag aayos ka na d'yan, mom." Wika ko.

She laughed, "Oh, yes my darling." I laughed.

"Look who's excited? 7pm pa ang start pero may nag aayos na." I joked. She laughed again.

"Oh, darling. May mga businessmen kaming imi-meet ng dad mo. Don't get me wrong!" She explained dramatically and I laughed again.

"Yeah, yeah! For sure. Sabi mo eh!" I said teasing her.

"Love you too, mom." Paalam ko at ibinaba na ang tawag at nagpatuloy na sa paglalakad.

Nang marating ko ang mapunong parte patungo sa likod ay may narinig ako kaluskos.

Mabilis akong pumihit at tumingin sa paligid, ngunit walang tao.

Nagpatuloy ulit ako sa paglalakad pero ramdam ko ang isang pares ng mata na nakatitig sa'kin. Parang pinapaso ang likod ko sa init ng mga titig na 'yon at tila may nakadagan na mabigat na bagay sa batok ko.

This weird feeling again, like someone's was watching me...

"Sino 'yan?" Matapang kong sambit ng makarinig ako ng kaluskos sa parte ng kumpol ng mga tuyong dahon.

"Answer me!" Sigaw ko at tumingin sa paligid ngunit bigo ako. Hindi ako takot o naniniwala sa mga multo o kung ano anong elemento. Wala akong kinatatakutan, but the feeling of those gaze. Pakiramdam ko binubutas niya hanggang kaluluwa ko sa titig pa lang niya.

Bigo akong makakuha ng sagot kaya't tumalikod na lang ako at nagpatuloy sa paglalakad.

Ramdam ko ang mabibigat na yabag na sumusunod sa bawat hakbang ko at ang nakakapasong titig na sumasabay sa bawat galaw ko.

Sunod-sunod na mabibigat na paghinga ang pinakawalan ko. Mas binilisan ko pa ang paglalakad. I've never been bothered like this, because before. No one can bother me. Wala akong inaalala at kinatatakutan, dahil ipinanganak akong kaya ang lahat. But this feels so wrong, whatever or whoever it is he makes me tremble nervous as crazy.

Nang masulyapan ko na ang nakaparadang BMW 7 series ay tinakbo ko ang pagitan non.

"Love!" I called my boyfriend whose leaning in his expensive car and wearing those blue mist long sleeve rolled up to his elbows with deep black jeans. And of course, his gorgeous smile revealing his perfect set of teeth.

"Hey!" He opened his arms and hugged me. I smelled his Calvin Klein perfume that filled my nostrils.

"I miss you." I pout and looked at him. He rolled his eyes dramatically and laughed.

"I miss you too." He answered.

I looked at his red plump lips, I licked mine and gave him the eye. I leaned closer and tiptoed and grabs his lips.

"Oh, fuck..." My moan filled the car as he slid his fingers inside my tight jeans.

"Dev..." I moaned louder and tug his hair. He rubs me that makes me feel wetter even more.

I arched my back and savour the sensation his fingers sends me. He kissed my neck that makes my body burn.

He rubs more and more and I almost scream to his touches. As I reached my climax I took off his fingers out of my jeans.

"Talya..." He whispered and kissed me again but I refused, "Stop, dev...." I said in a low voice.

"Hmm..." He moaned and touch me again but I stop him.

"No..." I whispered. His hands fell onto my breast and massage it.

Patuloy niyang ginawa yon pero tuluyan ng humupa ang init ng katawan ko. Hinawakan ko siya sa dibdib at pinigilan pero mas lalo lang itong naging sabik at mariing hinalikan ako.

"Stop...Dev!" Pigil ko pero tila bingi ito at patuloy ako hinahawakan. He pressed his erect onto me causing me to pushed him with all of my strength.

"Ano ba!" Sigaw ko. Tinignan ako nito ng may nanlalaking mata, ilang segundo ay humupa iyon at napalitan ng inis ang mga tingin nito.

"What the fuck, Talya?" Sigaw nito pabalik at inayos ang sarili.

I buttoned my jeans and blouse. Lumipat ako ng upo sa tabi ng driver's seat.

Tinignan ko ang galit na mukha ni Dev at inabot ko ang matipuno nitong braso. Agad niya itong tinabig.

"The fuck is your problem?" Galit nitong tanong. Masama itong nakatingin sa'kin. Huminga ako ng malalim at tumingin sa labas ng tinted na bintana.

"Nothing." Simple kong sagot. Naramdaman ko ang pag iba nito ng posisyon at humarap sa'kin.

"Nothing? Well, please tell me how can you refused at me after you moaned my name?" He said in gritted teeth.

Mahina akong tumawa at hindi siya tinignan. Ramdam ko ang pag-iinit ng tingin niya. Marahas niyang hinawakan ang baba ko at pinaharap sa kanya.

"Answer me," Nilabanan ko ang tingin nito. He's an almost perfect guy, a perfect boyfriend. Gwapo, mayaman, matalino at sweet. But not everything in this world was made perfectly. And us, is not an exception.

He has this anger problem sort of thing. But I managed that side of him and I love him with all my heart. And, also. Despite of me being the famous successor and the daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Allegro. Mayaman, maganda, matalino, name me. I can be whatever those people wanted me to be. But, I have flaws too. Which is hidden in the limelight.

"I've just reached my climax. That's all." Sagot ko na parang wala lang. Malakas nitong ibinagsak ang kamao sa dashboard. Napatalon ako sa gulat dahil sa ginawa niya.

"Lagi mo na lang 'yang dahilan." Aniya at mahigpit na hinawakan ang manibela sa harapan niya.

"Wala na bang iba? Because, I was sick of your teasing and whatever you call your game!" He said angrily.

"Pakiramdam mo kasi makukuha mo ang lahat sa sarili mong paraan." He hissed na parang may kasalanan ako sa kanyang malaki. I looked at him. He was always saying that. Nakakarindi na rin.

"Dev, if I tell you that while we're having this..." I shrugged.

"Dirty thing? My excitement got lost easily." Prangka kong sagot. Well, that's the truth.

Tumingin siya sa'kin ng parang hindi makapaniwala sa pinagsasabi ko.

He shakes his head and click his tongue. His shoulders lightly shaking and a soft chuckle escape his lips.

"Tangina..." Bulong niya ng may inis at pagpipigil. Pero, masyado akong pagod para makipag-away sa kanya.

I love him, but he didn't excite me at all when it comes to sex. What's wrong with that? Alangan namang pilitin niya ako.

Tumunog ang telepono nito na nakapatong sa dashboard. A name Brad appeared on to the screen of his phone.

Marahas niyang pinatay ang tawag at itinaob ang telepono. Tinignan ko ito ng may nakakunot na noo pero agad ko rin iyong binaliwala.

"Pumunta ka mamaya sa party." Wika ko at inabot ko ang invitation card with gold designs.

"I'll introduce you to everyone." Wika ko ulit.

Tinanggap niya ang invitation at tumingin sa'kin, "Are you sure? Baka itakwil ka nila bilang anak kapag nalaman nilang ako ang nobyo mo." He said sarcastically.

I was aware of that. Of course, gusto nila mom and dad 'yung kasing yaman namin o kaya'y mas mayaman samin. Insane, I know. But that's a life a life of an elite. Well, Devlin is considered a bachelor. He said that he's an associate in BioMed, the top pharmaceutical company in Visayas and currently it is making it's name in the Europe and Middle east as well. Bigating negosyante na rin maituturing itong si Dev. Pero, hindi papasok sa standards ng parents ko and I hate it so much.

"Then?" I raised a brow, "So what? That's fine. Dahil walang bagay na gusto ko ang hindi ko makukuha." Sagot ko.

He hissed and smiled. His anger fade already, "Whatever you say, madame." He spoke and start his car. This is going to be a fun night.
