His Possession

kabanata 2

Home

Tunog ng mga paa na tumatakbo ang aking narinig. Doon ko lang napagtanto na ang tunog ng mga papa ay nanggaling sa akin. My heart hummer so hard in my chest na para bang lalabas ito dito.

Ang liwanag ay naghari sa kalangitan. Luminga ako sa paligid at puro naglalakihang puno ang nakikita ko.

Nakasout ako ng mamahaling puting bistida at nakapaa lamang. I don’t know where I’m going basta takbo lang ako ng takbo. Punong puno ng takot ang buong katawan ko.

Hindi ko mawari kung bakit ako tumatakbo, kung bakit ako kinakabahan at kung bakit hindi ko macontrol ang aking katawan. Para akong hinahabol ng leon sa aking pagtakbo at parang isang segundong paghinto ay malalapa na ako nito.

"Nasaan ako?"  Ang tanging tanong na naghahari sa aking isipan habang tumatakbo pa rin. May naririnig akong mga yapak na nakasunod sa akin at mga boses.

"Get my wife you idiots or I will kill you all" dagungdong ng boses na lalong nagpagimbal sa akin.

Nakaramdam ako ng haplos sa aking buhok at mumunting halik sa aking mukha. Unti-unti kong iminulat ang aking mata at tumambad sa aking paningin ang mukha ng mala diyos na lalaki. Memories rush from my mind on our last conversation. Yun lang ang tanging alaala ko. This man said that he is my husband.

"How are you feeling Sweetheart?" Bungad niyang tanong sa akin habang hinahaplos ang aking pisngi and looking at me intently.

I try to remember my dream ngunit unti unti na itong lumalabo.

“I had a dream" I told him.

"What dream?" Buong pagtataka niyang tanong sa akin. Confusion itched on his godly face.

"I was in the forest, running fro-o-m. I don't really remember. I feel like nasa loob ako ng isang babae, I don’t have any control of her at ang tanging nagawa ko lamang ay manood galing sa kanyang nakikita."

Natahimik siya pagkatapos kung ikwento ang aking napanaginipan. Dumilim unti-unti ang kanyang mukha at biglang humigpit and kanyang pagkakahawak sa akin. Umiba ang kanyang aura, mas lalo itong dumilim at nakakatakot.

"Is it me or imahinasyon ko lamang iyon?" Tanong ko sa kanya. Nalilito kong tiningnan siya.

"It's just your imagination wife, maybe it's just your trauma that makes you see or dream things. Don't think too much okay?” I don’t know if it is a demand or not. His tone is dark. It creeps my skin.
That made me shut up. I’m scared to utter more words about this dream of mine. Parang hindi eh, it was so vivid. Pero hindi na ako nakasalita ulit ng makaramdam ako ng takot sa paraan ng pagtingin niya sa akin.

"Don't pressure yourself too much just to remember. Just let your memories flow back freely okay?" At ang kanyang kamay ay dahang dahang umakyat patungo sa may ilalim ng aking dibdib at hinalikan niya ako ng malalim. Ito na naman yung halik niya na parang parusa. He kissed me so hard na parang mapupunit na ang aking labi. His tongue went inside my mouth and explored my insides.

Pagkatapos niya akong halikan ng mapusok, habol hiningang tiningnan ko siya. Hinaplos niya ang aking buhok at naramdaman kong hinihila ulit ako ng antok.

"I'll just inquire the doctor about your dreams. For now just go back to sleep." He said and I just nodded and he kiss me again and again hanggang sa parang mahihimatay na ako sa sobrang kulang ng hangin. 

“What’s your name” I whispered through my sleepy state.

“Rogue. Now go to sleep” He whispered tenderly at me while looking at me darkly. I slowly drifted to sleep before I hear what him whisper words na di ko maintindhan.

"Damn that doctor, the medicine doesn't work but I'll make sure you will never have your memories back wife" I heard a murmur and then I was lost in the sea of darkness.

AFTER so many days being bed ridden in that awful hospital bed, I am finally free. Dahan-dahan akong inalalayan ng sinasabi kong asawa ko raw palabas ng ospital patungo sa kanyang sasakyan. His body is all over me that even an air cannot go between us. I’m like cage bird in his strong arms wrap around my body.

Silence surrounds us. Nang nakalapit na kami sa sasakyan niya, he open the passenger door for me and look at me darkly while smirking. Unconsciously, umatras ako at dahan dahang pumasok sa sasakyan niya na sa tingin ko’y sobrang mamahalin. Hindi pa niya ito sinarado agad. He grip my chin softly at inilapit sa mukha niya. Hindi na ako nagulat ng bigla na naman niyang angkinin ang aking mga labi. After a while he let my lips go and kissed my cheeks.

“Now you’re really mine” He whispered in my ear. I was confused with what he said. Tumingin ako sa kanya and was suddenly scared by the dark look in his face. His stubble has grown making his face look darker. Walang pasabi ay sinuot niya sa akin ang aking seatbelt at pagkatapos ginawaran ulit ako ng isang malalim na halik. Tinulak ko siya ng mahina dahil baka may makakita sa amin. Nagpaubaya naman siya at sinarado niya ang pintuan at pumasok na siya sa sasakyan.

While driving, pinagmasdan ko siya. I look at his godly face. His has a tan skin. He has a hard look, stubbles in his jaw making him rugged. His eyes so mysterious and dark looking intently at the road. His perfect lips. 5’oclock jaw that came prominent when he gritted his teeth. Bumaba ang aking tingin sa kanyang mga kamay na nakahawak sa manobela. It was so big, full of muscles na kulang na lang ay puputok ang mga ugat dito. Overall he is like a handsome demon god. With his powerful aura that made him dangerous, he can break me with just one flick of his hand. Kung ikukumpara ako sa kanya I’m petite, my height just reach his chest.

“Hey, just sleep baby, malayo pa tayo” His voice made my heart jump. Something in the back of my mind tells me to run away from him. Pero winalang bahala ko na lang ito dahil siya lang ang tumulong sa akin and his the only person that I know. Habang inaalis ko sa aking isipan ang mga di ko dapat iniisip tungkol sa taong ito na walang ginawa but to take care of me, my eyelids slowly drops. I think the drugs that I take before going out from the hospital for my frequent headache are starting to kick in.

I am battling with being conscious and unconscious, I felt that the car stops and I saw through my almost closed eyes na nasa gasolinahan pala kami. I hear voices and then silence. My almost closed eyes met his dark one. He slowly closed the space between us and kissed me so hard. I weakly push him pero di ito natinag. After a minute, his kisses went down to my neck. I pushed him slightly dahil nakikiliti ako pero tuloy parin siya sa kanyang pang-aabuso sa aking leeg.

Nilaplapan niya ito. He bite and sucked it so hard that it sting. Walang nagawa ang pagpalag ko dito, even my shoulder and chest ay di nakatakas sa kanyang labi at ngipin. He continued his assault in my neck, shoulder and collarbone ng maramdaman kong may kumatok sa bintana niya.

“R-o-ouge, may ta-o” sa nanghihina kong boses ay nakaya ko pang pagsabihan siya. With one last bite in my neck ay binitawan niya na ako sa wakas. Mabuti at sobrang tinted nitong sasakyan niya.

They talked a little and then the car started again. Punong-puno ng laway at kagat niya ang leeg ko. Alam kong namumula ito dahil nakakaramdaman ko ang mumunting sakit dito.

Unti-unti na akong hinihila ng kadiliman at nang di ko na mapigilan ay hinayaan ko na lang na lamonin ako nito. And the last thing that I saw was his dark smile while looking at my neck and chest.

“I’ll leave my mark on you every second of the day dahil pag-aari kita Victoria. You belong to me”
