Respectfully Yours novel Chapter 5

Anikka

From: Mama

I don't forget to go to our hotel this afternoon. You will meet your fiancee and please dress properly, huwag kang magdamit manang mamaya.

Tamad kong binaba ang phone sa tabi ko. Ayoko pa rin bumangon at ituloy na lang ang tulog ko. Ayokong pumunta doon. I don’t want to meet that man, because it feels like I am step ahead away from my freedom once I met him. Feeling ko hindi ko siya magugustuhan. Kahapon pa yun nangyari, pero hanggang ngayon hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala.

In just one night, I am getting married to someone I don’t idea who is. Tapos wala akong choice kundi pumayag. I never imagine myself na mapapasok sa isang arranged marriage, siyempre pangarap ko rin naman na makasal sa lalaking mahal ko at mahal din ako. Yung masasabing kong, aking the one and only.

I don’t know when I will find my ideal man, mabait, matalino, maalaga, consistent, hindi yung sa una lang sweet, yung talagang faithful siya sa’yo. Pero nowadays, those men just exist in books and in telenovelas, hindi na sila totoo, panay mga manloloko at sa itsura tumitingin.

Nawalan na rin akong ganang pumasok sa law school dahil sigurado ako na walang maasorb yung utak ko dahil lutang na lutang ako ngayon. There are calls from my friends at hanggang ngayon hindi ko pa rin sinasagot.

My life will be miserable anyways.

"Senyorita gayak na po kayo at ipinatatawag na po kayo ng mama niyo."

I sighed. Ayoko siyang makita, dahil maisip ko pa lang siya alam ko na magiging miserable na ako ngayon. I don’t want to be judgemental naman kasi hindi ko pa nakikita ang tao, pero ayoko ng ganitong set-up. Binding two people doesn’t love each other will not work. Napilitan na akong bumagon, kaysa naman abutin ako ng sermon ni Mama at ayoko pang maistress si Lolo

Lukas

"Prepare yourself apo, mamaya mamamanhikan na tayo." Wala akong gana na bumangon sa hinihigaan ko. Ang bilis nga ng mga pangyayari, kahapon nalaman ko na engaged kami, tapos ngayon mamamanhikan naman na and what's for tomorrow? Our wedding day? Just damn it!

Ayoko pang makasal pwede? Pero wala akong choice. Sobrang nakakainis. I really get rid of this! Siguraduhin nilang magugustuhan ko ang babae. Well if she can satisfy me, medyo pagbibigyan ko na.

Nag-ayos muna kami, lolo told me to wear my most beautiful suit to impress them. For me, hindi na kailangan sapat na siguro alam nila na isa ako sa mga tinitingalang engineer sa Pilipinas, bilyonaryo at isang tagapagmana, Also this handsome face will be enough to die for. I am a man that any woman will want. Hindi ko kailangan ng mga kung ano ano pa.

I am the great Lukas Angelo Aragon at yang mga babaeng iyan ang lalapit sa akin, hindi ako.

After that we went to a five star hotel, which is owned by Juan Fuentes, Lolo's bestfriend. Natigilan ako ng makita ang isang pamilyar na kotse malapit sa parking lot.

I still remember how exactly it look like, that blue car. Ang kotse na tumagis sa sportscar ko! Malamang nandito ang babae na iyon. Once I see her, humanda siya sa akin. I still can’t ride that car up to this point!

Her family greeted us as we arrived.

“Juan, Miranda and Eduard, this is my apo, Lukas.” I smiled at them saka nagmano sa kanila.

“Lukas Aragon, finally I met you. I heard a lot about your projects and your work. You are a great engineer.” Eduard Fuentes said, and tapped my shoulder.

“Thank you po.”

“You are perfect to my daughter Lukas, she is our future lawyer, a good one.” Miranda Fuentes. I know her, she is a former beauty queen. That gave me a sense of relief, sigurado maganda ang anak nila. I can already imagine her figure, not her face yet. Also, they said she is also a future lawyer. Beauty with brains huh. I am sure I am going to like that girl. Thank God that woman is decent enough for my type. Still It does not mean, I’ll just stick to her, it is too boring.

"She's on her way na daw." Kanina pa namin siya hinihintay dito, she's thirty minutes late. I understand if kailangan niyang magpaganda sa akin. She must be, I also prepare for this, I make sure I look good this day.

I am just plainly listening on their suggestions about their plan in the wedding. Parang sila ang may kasal. Also, that is fine, I am not interested in setting it up, besides the brides are the one who fixes the wedding.

I can only imagine her that she will jump to my bed, kissing me passionately and my hands will roam all over her body, and we fuck all night.

Oh crap! Stop thinking green Lukas!

"She's here na." Agad ako napatingin sa tinuturo ni Mrs. Fuentes.

I just can’t believe what I saw. Thank heavens! She's freaking hot! How lucky I am, she is so perfect! I felt that my member instanly hardened. I will get laid this night.

Gustong gusto ko na siyang sunggaban, I wan't to make her mine right now. Bakit ko pa pakakawalan ang mga sexy na katulad niya.

To my dismay, mayroong yumakap sa kanyang matandang lalaki, na mukhang kaedaran pa ng lolo ko, then he even kiss her on the lips?! Oh crap! What kind of girl is that? a prostitute? Yuck! Hindi na ako papatol diyan. Siguradong nangangamoy lupa na rin yung babaeng yan. That goodness it is not her.
