THREE YEARS LATER . . .

During a court trial, a judge had already laid out his verdict. A wave of voices, carrying mixed emotions, buzzed within the room. Hindi pa nadi-dismiss ang hearing ay halos sabay-sabay nang nagsipagtayuan ang mga nakaupo sa silid. Napilitan tuloy na umaksyon ang ilang marshall para pigilan ang tangka ng galit na si Jeffrey Almario na sugurin si Leo.

The judge quickly dismissed them, and the complainant along with the lawyer were escorted by some marshalls out of the courtroom. Dinaluhan si Jeffrey ng umiiyak nitong ina at walang-emosyon na mababakas sa mukha ng nakababata nitong kapatid na si Shot Gun Man pala na kumidnap sa kanila noon ni Imee.

"Do you have anything else to say regarding this case, Attorney Tierra?" salubong sa kaniya ng isang reporter.

Of course, the Dela Paz versus Almario case was high profiled. It was all over the news before its trial even started, thanks to Almario being related to a governor, hence the number of reporters flocking around him now.

"Mabuhay sana palagi ang hustisya sa Pilipinas," nagmamadali niyang sagot dahil nagsisiksikan na ang mga tao sa paligid nila ng kaniyang kliyente. "Dahil ito ang ipinaglalaban natin dito—ang pananaig ng hustisya at karapatang-pantao. Maging adbokasiya rin sana natin na manahimik saglit para marinig ang boses ng mga naaapi. Let us be their emotional support that will help them have the courage to speak, even when it's hard; that we'll speak for them, when they can't; that will come here . . . come hear—come hear them out."

"Mensahe para sa kliyente n'yo, attorney?"

"Isabel, mamuhay ka nang ligtas at nang panibago. Maaaring pinatatag ka ng mapait na karanasang ito, pero sana ay huwag mong hayaan ang ibang tao na gamitin 'to para husgahan ang iyong pagkatao. Because Isabel, being a victim is not your only identity. You are, most of all, your own person, and you are who you become—not from what happened but after everything that happened. Your future is not in the hands of your abuser. It's now back in your hands."

"Thank you, Attorney Tierra. Miss Isabel?"

"S-Salamat . . . Salamat at dininig n'yo ako . . ." naiiyak na sulyap sa kaniya ni Isabel. Naka-sunglasses man ito na itim, mahahalata naman iyon sa panginginig ng boses nito bago nahihiyang yumuko at tinakpan ng palad ang gilid ng mukha.

Nimfa, who never left her daughter's side, hugged her protectively from the crowd.

Leo looked on to them, warmly. Proudly.

Nang matulungang makatakas ang mag-ina mula sa mga reporter ay dumeretso na si Leo sa sarili niyang kotse. Naipanalo na niya sa wakas ang kaso ni Isabel ngunit kailangan pa niyang dumeretso sa law firm para i-finalize ang ilang mga dokumento na may kinalaman dito.

Ngunit, bago magmaneho, huminga muna siya at sumandal sa backrest ng driver's seat. He cleared his mind, shutting down the noise from the reporters that crowded around his car and tapped politely on his window.

Minasahe niya ang sentido nang maalalang isang linggo na lang ay magpa-Pasko na naman. Ibig sabihin, oras na naman para bisitahin ang mga magulang niya sa Cavite. Mula nang maging girlfriend niya kasi si Imee, may usapan na sila kung saan magpa-Pasko. Sa unang taon ay sa Batangas, sa susunod ay sa bahay ni Leo, at ngayong ikatlong taon ng pagsasama nila ay sa Cavite, sa bahay ng mga magulang niya.

Of course, Leo loves his parents. Pero dahil alam ng mga ito ang dinanas niyang pang-aabuso noon, may mga pagkakataon pa rin na nahihiya o naiilang siya na harapin ang mga ito.

His short rest was interrupted by a call. Nagmamadaling inilabas niya mula sa bulsa ang cell phone sa pag-aakalang si Imee ito. To his disappointment, it was Tyrel—ang dakilang tsismoso.

Leo sighed and answered the call. "Hello?"

"What the F, man? Bakit gano'n ang interview sa inyo? Para kayong nagpapalitan ng wedding vows ng client mo!" At binuntutan iyon ni Tyrel ng nakalolokong tawa.

Napabuntonghininga na naman siya at pinaikot ang mga mata. "Just congratulate me, man, and drop this call already. Baka nahaharang mo ang tawag ni Imee sa 'kin."

"Iko-congrats pa ba kita? E, hindi na naman bago 'tong may ipinanalo ka na naman na kaso!"

"Bye," bagot niyang saad at diniskonekta agad ang tawag.

When Leo checked his screen, another call arrived. Unknown number. Ini-mute niya ang setting ng cell phone at ipinatong ito sa bagong install na cell phone holder ng kaniyang sasakyan. Then, he started his car, beeped to politely ask the reporters to clear the way, and left.

Buong araw nag-traffic ang mga tawag sa cell phone ni Leo. Maging ang telepono sa law firm ay panay ang ring dahil sa mga reporter na gusto siyang makausap tungkol sa kaso ni Isabel. This was the day he swore that he would never hold another high profiled case ever again. Kahit e-mail inbox niya kasi, binaha ng mga request para makapanayam siya.

Nang matapos sa pag-aasikaso sa mga nakabinbin na trabaho ay in-entertain din niya sa huli ang ilan sa mga tawag at e-mail. He rejected all the interview invites and insisted that he valued the client-lawyer confidentiality. That even if he could convince Isabel to consent, he would still not entertain any further publicity about the case when she made it clear in the first place that she wanted to leave it all behind once the trials were done.

MAG-AALAS DOSE na ng madaling araw nakauwi si Leo sa townhouse.

"Yaya Lumeng!" ikatlong tawag na niya sa katulong pagkapasok sa townhouse. Ang sabi kasi nito, hihintayin nito ang pagdating niya bago ito lumuwas sa probinsiya para mag-Pasko at Bagong Taon kasama ang pamilya nito roon.

Hindi nagpakita si Yaya Lumeng. Inisip ni Leo na baka tulog o nakaalis na pero masyado na siyang pagod at inaantok para alamin pa. Anuman ang ginawa ng katulong, malalaman din naman niya kinabukasan kaya dumeretso na lang si Leo sa kuwarto niya.

Pagbukas ng pinto, bumulaga sa kaniya si Imee.

"Bakit ngayon ka lang?" She asked him in that soft and relaxed sultry voice. Her hazy gaze directed to him . . . only him. As if he was the only one she desired to see.

His beautiful girlfriend was bent over, fixing his bed. Upon seeing him arrive, she slowly slid on it breast first. As she moved, strands of her caramel brown hair tumbled and slipped on her brown back and shoulders. Her palm propped against the soft sheets as they slid her over the bed until her back curved deeper and her knees rooted on the bed. She began lifting her butt in the air and pressing her left cheek on the mattress.

To top it all, she was wearing a black lace lingerie that hugged every round and sharp curve of her body to a tee.

Leo closed the door behind him and paced closer to her. Initsa niya ang briefcase sa carpet. "At bakit nandito ka sa k'warto ko na ganyan ang suot?"

'Say what I want to hear, Imee. . . . Say it.'

Imee stared at his lips.

"Gusto ko makabawi sa 'yo," she breathed out with those eyes that seemed to lure him with the way they plead softly.

"Para saan?"

"Masyado akong naging busy . . . sa pag-aaral."

"Quits lang tayo. Naging busy rin naman ako sa mga kasong hawak ko."

Napalabi ito. "Objection."

Then, she slowly stretched out her arms over her head as she maintained her bent over position on the bed. Her pleading eyes were starting to narrow into this scorching, stare that pierced him with her demanding authority.

Tumaas ang isa niyang kilay, kasabay ng pagtaas ng isang sulok ng kaniyang labi. "We're not quits?"

"Not yet."

"How do we make it even then?" he asked throatily as he stopped at the side of the bed. Dumulas ang isang kamay niya mula sa nakataas na puwitan ng dalaga pababa sa malalim na uka sa pagitan ng likuran at balakang. Sabay upo niya sa gilid ng kama.

"Give me a chance to make it up to you."

His hand resumed stroking. From her waist, it travelled down to her back, to her shoulder, then to her arm. "In what way?"

Imee got up and kneeled behind him. Marahang tinanggal nito ang gray na blazer ng kaniyang suit. Pagkatapos ay inilapit nito ang mga labi sa likuran ng kaniyang tainga.

"Can you fuck me, please?"

Gumapang ang init mula sa hininga nito pababa. Kasing bilis ito ng lintik dahil nagising pati ang natutulog na kamalayan sa pagitan ng kaniyang mga hita.

Leo grinned and turned to face her. His aggression reflected his want and need for her as he grabbed her close by her nape. "Madali naman akong kausap, lalo na kung ikaw ang kakausap sa 'kin."

"Puro ka pambobola, huwag mong dalhin dito ang galing ng bibig mo sa korte," Imee removed the buttons of his polo.

"I can't promise that," Leo slipped a finger under a strap of her lingerie. "Dahil pati bibig ko, gagamitin ko para paligayahin ka. Buong gabi." Kinabig pa niya sa batok ang dalaga kaya bahagyang naglapat ang kanilang mga pisngi bago siya bumulong dito. "You know what this mouth can do . . ." Like a rolling dew drop, he traced the side of her thigh with the back of his forefinger, "so don't take it for granted." Then he slipped his hand between her thighs, pressed the length of his finger parallel to her slit.

Kapwa sila pinag-initan ng mga mukha at namula. Imee seemed swept off of her feet by his boldness, while he was surprised that she was wearing no panties down there! Both were sheepish but aching with so much anticipation it made their bodies throb.

Imee gazed into his eyes from beneath her thick lashes. Their locked gazes shared a weight so hot and intense, it rushed their hands and fingers before the flames crumble their resolve too soon. She unbuttoned his shirt while he was already dropping the straps of her lingerie.

Nang lumantad ang mga dibdib nila ay walang pagdadalawang-isip na hinapit niya ang katawan ng dalaga palapat sa kaniya. Kumawala ang manginig-nginig niyang pag-ungol nang maramdaman ang lambot at init ng mga ito! Yumakap naman si Imee sa kaniyang leeg kaya bahagya siyang napatingala sa dalaga.

Slowly, their lips finally met. They head rolled along to the rhythm of their slow kisses, and made their bodies experience the dance of their tongues through their hands that ran all over each other. Both their palms slipped and rubbed in a mix of eagerness and tenderness against each other's skin, grabbing and caressing every part they could reach.

Habang nagiging mas malalim at mas mapaglaro ang halikan nila, nagiging mas malikot na rin ang kanilang mga kamay.

Leo found his hand between her thighs once more. Once they were both kneeling on the bed, he bravely sawed her slit with his forefinger.

Their kisses muffled their pleasured moans and as Imee parted her legs wider, he was encouraged to hook his finger inside her. Napahiwalay ang mga labi ng dalaga sa kaniya. Napatingala ito at halos mapugto ang hininga sa mahina nitong pag-ungol.

Leo took advantage of her exposed neck. He lunged and brushed his lips along its side until he reached her collarbone. Then he sucked gently and caught her back when she was about to fall back on the bed.

His hand slowly crept lower, from her back to her behind. Imee moaned when his hand squeezed her there as a cue to make their kiss stop. Nang maghiwalay sila ay nagmamadali siyang lumayo sa kama.

"Let me take a shower first," humihingal niyang paalam dito. He had to be clean first, to smell good. Three years into the relationship and still, Leo wanted to keep showing Imee that he was worthy of her and her love through things even as simple as presenting at his best in the bedroom.

Pero hindi pa niya nababanlawan ang sabon sa katawan ay kinatok na siya sa shower stall ng dalaga. "Leo?"

"Yes?"

Her voice echoed in the bathroom. "Hot shower?"

"Yes!" aniya sa malakas na boses para hindi ito malunod ng tunog ng pagbagsak ng tubig.

"Oh, great! Can I come in?"

Pinunasna niya ng palad ang mukha para makakita. 'She can't wait anymore!' "Hindi pa ako nagbabanlaw!"

"Sayang naman . . ."

Napalunok siya nang masilip ito sa salamin ng shower stall. She was already looking at him with those soft eyes as her lingerie slipped from her arms down to the floor. He gaped for a moment. Even if he already saw her body a lot of times before, he would still fight for his dear life to keep breathing just to see it!

He melted on the spot then, groaned. Ano pa ba kasi ang hinihintay niya?

He quickly opened the door for her and pulled her in. Hindi pa nakakahuma ang dalaga ay hinablot na niya ito sa batok at siniil ng halik sa mga labi.

"Oh, Imee, bathe with me. You make me feel cleaner. You make me feel pure," he groaned hotly against her lips.

Eventually, Leo left her lips, because they were not the only parts of her that deserves to be kissed. He inhaled her sweet scent from the crook of her neck and dragged his lips all the way to her smooth shoulder as his free hand roughly ran back and forth, between her thighs and waist.

"Touch me, Imee, come on . . ." he begged as he pushed her against the tiled wall, beside the shower faucet. In this position, they could feel the water sprinkling but not directly on their heads and faces.

"Where do you want to be touched?" she said as she lifted her head, giving him more access to her shoulder, to her collarbone.

"Everywhere!" he moaned as he guided her hand to his chest. Then lower, and lower . . .

He rubbed her palm against him slowly to allow her warmth to seep into his wet skin, infiltrate his veins, and reach his heart. Because in this life, it was all what he needed all along—Imee. Her warmth. The same warmth he felt and saw on that day when he first fell in love with her—right when they we're both standing beneath the noon sun, glowing like golden statues turned alive with each other's gazes, with each other's understanding, and touches, and kisses.

"But . . . I might touch you at the wrong places—" she struggled to speak straight, whimpering in erotic pleasure, yet tortured by her concern for him, "—bring back those memories . . ."

"Don't fear. Your love, your touch, your kisses—these are the only things that my body allows to feel!"

"Oh, Leo . . ." Her fingers wrapped around his erect length. She stroked him up and down with precision inspired by her confidence; and ever so carefully out of respect for his body.

Napatingala siya sa sarap habang pinipilit na ayusin ang paghinga niya na nagiging mababaw na. Then, he looked down once more and watched her hands do their tricks on his dick.

"With a hand like that, it makes you so hard to resist! You make me want to be inside you already!"

"Just come in," she answered, panting in excitement. "Ilang oras na 'kong naghihintay na makapasok ka rito, alam mo ba 'yon?"

"Double entendre. I like it." Leo parted her legs. "What about, a double enter-dre, hm?" he teased while poking her entrance with his head.

Nagtatakang tumitig ito sa mga mata niya. "Ano'ng double enter-dre?"

"Do you want to know?" he smirked playfully while lifting her leg and hooking it over his arm.

She pouted as she secured an arm around his neck and looked at him suspiciously. "Will you explain it or prefer to demo it?"

"However you want it."

"Demo," mapanghamong ngisi nito habang hinahagod ng malaya nitong kamay ang kaniyang dibdib pababa.

Ginantihan niya ng panghahamon din ang ngisi nito bago dahan-dahang dumulas papasok dito.

"Ah! Leo!" daing nito.

Tila natunaw siya nang makita ang paglambot ng mukha nito. The deeper he pushed, the softer she looked at him. The weakness on her face gave him the impulse to forget about the challenging stares they exchanged earlier. Right now, all he wanted was to hold her carefully, take her gently.

He began making slow thrusts. Napaungol niya ang dalaga sa bawat mariin na pagkiskis ng kahabaan niya sa bawat sulok nito. He filled her to the brim with his length and width and yet, he couldn't be satisfied. He wanted to go deeper and reach farther.

Her moan—a positive feedback—encouraged him, prodding him to swing faster. His other hand that held her hip slowly crept to her back, down to her ass.

"Double enter-dre," he announced.

Imee gasped as his fingers pushed inside her ass. "Leo!"

When he looked at her reaction, he was welcomed by her wide-eyed shock and parted lips.

"How is it?" he asked with labored breaths.

"M-Mab—Mababaliw y-yata ako!" hirap na hirap nitong ungol, tila hindi malaman ang mararamdaman. If being fucked on the front seemed to burn her like heat, being entered at the back was giving her the ticklish chill like an ice could! Experiencing both sensations would truly drive her crazy!

Lalo ginanahan si Leo. Itinukod na niya sa pader ang isang paa para dagdagan ang sigla ng pag-ulos niya rito. Hindi kasi natumbasan noong umpisa ang tindi ng pagririgodon ng puso niya ng pag-iisa nila! She had to feel how intense it was, even if he had to use his dick!

"Imee!" he bit his lower lip to suppress his pleasured groan.

Nanlalaki pa rin ang mga mata ng dalaga at nakaawang ang mga labi. It was seconds before he noticed that she was already spacing out. Napasabunot ang isang kamay nito sa kaniyang buhok bago kumawala ang manginig-nginig nitong pag-ungol sa kaniyang pangalan.

She threw her head back as their bodies trembled at the high that rushed to their heads. Unti-unti na ring naramdaman ni Leo ang pagkahibang na siyang nagpalutang sa dalaga. Kapwa sila napatingala at habol ang mga hininga na umungol sa pagsasalpukan ng madulas at nagkiskisan nilang mga katawan.

Sa huling pagyanig ng kanilang mga katawan ay umikot ang kanilang mga mata at pumailanlang sa silid ang mga ungol. Nilunod ng mga ito ang maingay na mga patak ng tubig mula sa shower head.

Nanghihinang isinubsob ni Leo ang mukha sa leeg ni Imee at paisa-isang idiniin ang pagbayo rito.

Kaunti na lang at bibigay na ang mga tuhod niya! Pero nang makaraos sa banyo, itinuloy pa nila ang pagniniig sa kuwarto.

"I just won a case today," he said, watching Imee—naked and wet from the bath—lay on her stomach before she slowly, and oh-so torturously smoothly lifted her butt.

"I know . . ." Pinadulas ng dalaga ang mga palad paikot sa puwitan nito bago pinaghiwalay ang mga pisngi nito.

"You did not call to congratulate me," pagtatampo niya, minamasahe ang pagkalalaki ng kaniyang palad habang inilalapit ito sa likuran dalaga.

"Nasa school ako kanina . . . Pag-uwi ko naman, ang hirap mong tawagan . . ."

"You should have just come . . ." he grunted softly as his tip slowly buried from the smooth coolness of her entrance, then between the warmth of her soft folds, "to me . . ." He released a staggering sigh that blended with her sharp gasp as he completely filled her with all his massiveness. "My offices are always open . . . for you."

"H-Hindi na . . ." Imee answered raspily, struggling to keep her voice steady as she flushed while they slowly rocked back and forth. "I-I'd rather w-wait for—" Napaungol ito nang bigla niyang sinagad. "—for y-you to come h-here!"

He parted her legs, completely filling the space between her thighs the way he wanted to fill her with him, all of him! Right now!

"Then, at least, clap for me," he moaned. He was already struggling to keep his composure, he was already steaming and he had to release this renewed heat right away!

"Then fuck me faster!" Imee begged, clutching the sheets to prepare for his impact.

"Clap for me!" Leo moaned as he thrust faster.

Kapwa napaawang ang kanilang mga labi, nanghihingalo sa pagkakarerahan ng mga puso nila sa bilis ng paglabas-masok niya rito.

Every thrust made his thighs slam against her ass, filling the room with their proud clapping. Sinundan ito ng naliliyo nilang mga ungol hanggang sa manginig-nginig ang kanilang katawan.

Leo fell on Imee's back, clutched on her hanging breasts with both hands.

"L-Leo!" singhap ng dalaga dahil nadagdagan ang sensasyon na nagpapainit sa katawan nito. "Mababaliw ako sa ginagawa m-mo! D-Dahan-dahan l-lang!"

"I-I can't go gentle know! I'm c-cumming! Let me hold on for my dear life because damn! You're not just my life line, you'll also be the death of me! Mapapatay mo 'ko sa sarap!" manginig-nginig niyang ungol. At halos mapasigaw siya nang maramdaman ang pagpiga ng mga pelvic muscle ni Imee sa kaniyang kahabaan. "Shit!"

"J-Just returning the favor!" humihingal nitong tawa, nakangiti na para bang unti-unti nang nawawala sa sarili. "Squeeze my tits, and I'll squeeze your tit—" She suddenly gasped sharply. Bigla niya kasi itong sinagad! "Oh, Leo! Don't push too hard! Just let me squeeze you. Let me help you . . . cum!" mariin nitong pikit at humihingal na pinagtulungan nila na makaraos siya.

"No! You're cumming with me!" he groaned as he released one of her breasts to reach between her thighs.

He felt for her folds and located the knob to her door of pleasure—her smooth, hard clitoris. His thumb pushed it with a pressure that immediately set her into flames, then tickled her senses with the way his fingers rammed and played with her folds.

Naghalo na ang ingay ng pagsasalpukan ng basa nilang mga katawan, ang mababaw nilang mga paghinga, at ang maluwalhati nilang mga ungol bago dumiin si Leo sa dalaga.

"In or out?" he grunted. Hirap na hirap na siyang magpigil!

Imee just moaned shakily. Nanigas ang katawan nito kaya takot na napabitiw siya sa isa nitong dibdib para yapusin ng kaniyang braso. He kept her in place as she trembled blissfully beneath him. Kasabay ng paghila niya sa kaniyang mga daliri palabas ang pagkatas nito.

"I-In!" Imee answered, catching her breath after the earth-shattering orgasm she just had.

Hindi na siya nakasagot pa. Sakto kasing gumapang ang panginginig sa kaniyang buong katawan. Tila may lamig na kumiliti sa kaniya kaya nanigas siya at tuluyang sumabog sa loob ng dalaga.

Nanlalata na bumagsak siya sa ibabaw ng dalaga na nakadapa sa kaniyang ilalim.

"N-Nagustohan mo ba?" humihingal na kumusta sa kaniya ni Imee.

He closed his eyes and smiled. "Of course, I love it, ga. Because this is what sex is supposed feel. It shouldn't make you feel dirty when you unite with the woman you love. It should feel like this . . . comfortable, relaxing . . . refreshing."

Imee smiled and reached for his cheek to caress him tenderly. He purred comfortably at her touch, then caressed her cheek too.

"How about you? How's my performance?"

"The best as of date," she sighed. "Palagi mong nahihigitan ang mga nakaraang performance. . . ."

He chuckled wearily. It was only his body that was weary, though—not his heart, not his will, not his spirit.

"Leo?" tawag sa kaniya bigla ni Imee. It took him minutes to realize that he probably missed something that she said because he fell asleep already.

Malambing ngunit nagtataka na tinawag uli ni Imee ang kaniyang pangalan. Gusto niyang sumagot ngunit . . . antok na antok na talaga siya at hindi na maigalaw ang mga labi.

Leo just smiled and slept.
