Veronica woke up to the sound of her phone's alarm.
She was lying beside Rawlf, who snaked around her naked body. His left arm tightly wrapped around her waist while his hand managed to rest on her left mound while his left leg was right on top of hers. Their position is too intimate. Like a lover enjoying a sweet cuddle after a passionate night.
She felt him stirred due to her small movements of getting her phone from the bedside table. Four-thirty, Friday morning and she had set her alarm around this time during weekdays due to her early class.
That day, to her luck was the last day of her last semester in college and she decided not to attend since there's no more formal classes but just meetings for the graduating students like her. 'What a wild and carefree night indeed', Veronica thought. 'And what an amazing way to lose one's virginity,' she added.
Veronica was not a liberated type but also not the very conservative one. Probably before, she hasn't felt the same attraction with the oppposite sex the same way she did with Rawlf. 'So I guess this is it.' Veronica smiled sadly as she gently and slowly removed herself from Rawlf's tight embrace.
Veronica may be new and in fact, a first-timer with actual sexual intercourse but that doesn't mean she's naïve and delusional when it comes to the real world. Despite her last night's oath to have Rawlf, her sober self now beg to differ.
Rawlf and her were leagues apart. Yes, she's a politician's daughter and her family was affluent but that doesn't mean that she's already outstanding enough to be the kind of woman to be beside the powerful and magnificent Rawlf Sy. That's the sad part of being a realist, you are way too honest with yourself.
Rawlf and her might have been connected sexually but that's all there is to that. She's not stupid not to know and realize that she's not the only woman whom he is sexually related with. He is Rawlf Sy for heaven's sake and what happened between them for him was just pure fucking.
Casual sex, nada mas, nada menos.
Successfully untangled herself, Veronica carefully went out of the bed but check the man to make sure he wasn't disturbing. When she saw Rawlf's hand moves like searching for something in the bed, she took the pillow she slept on and put it near him. He then grabbed to embrace it tightly and Veronica wasn't able to see the contented expression that appeared on Rawlf's sleeping face.
Veronica sneakily got dressed and once confirmed that all her things were with her, she gently opened and closed the suite's door. She was frowning then and there everytime when her careless movement caused her lower body to sore. It was best that she always had her mask and glasses on her bag so that she was able to escape without catching anyone's unwanted attention. She then grabbed a cab waiting just outside the hotel building.
Veronica woke up at the sound coming from her phone. Seven missed calls and twenty-nine messages from her parents and friends. It's already two in the afternoon.
