Ex Marks A Spot...in The Hotel
This is just a work of fiction. Fiction lang po ito. Patnubay ng magulang ay kailangan.

''Thank you for flying Philippine Airlines, the heart of the Filipino'' sabi ng stewardess as the plane taxied the runway to NAIA Terminal 2.
'Its good to be back, Manila' sabi ko sa sarili ko. I switched off my phone's airplane mode, and in a second his message pinged.
'I'm outside the arrivals area na' said the text message. I smiled, giddy with excitement. I grabbed my bags, and lumakad palabas ng eroplano along with the other passengers.
While waiting for my luggage to exit the carousel, I was browsing through social media pages when my phone pinged again.
'San ka na?'
I called him agad, nakakapagod mag text. ''Hi, just waiting for my luggage lang then exit na ako afterwards''
''Siguraduhin mo, nakakastress magbakla-baklaan dito''
Natawa ako. ''Eh bakit naman kasi, you don't have to do that''
''Baka may espiya ex at tatay mo dito. Basta masundo lang kita, gagawin ko ang lahat''
I smiled. ''O ayan na bagahe ko, wait for me okay?''
''Bilis, ghurl, ang inetch dito, lam mo yun?''
Napatawa ako ng bongga, napalingon tuloy ibang pasahero sakin. Okay, behave lang tayo, incognito mode is on.
Sa arrivals area, hanap ako ng hanap sa lalaki na nagpapanggap na bakla. Pero lam mo yun, di ko naman inexpect na naka black shirt, cargo pants at tsinelas? Naka black wayfarers pa. San yung bakla-baklaan dun?
''Girl tulungan mo naman ako sa bagahe ko, putek ang init dito to think 4PM na, bakit dito ka tumambay?''
''Bakit andami mong dala 3 days ka lang dito ah?'' balik tanong niya sa napakasungit na boses.
''Napaghahalataan ka sa boses mo girl,'' tawa ko na sabi, ''Tsaka getaway nga diba? Kulang pa nga yan eh, mag sha-shopping pa ako mamaya''
''Ay gusto ko yan, shopping!'' Sabay lingon sa likod while dragging my maleta. ''Di ka naman siguro nasundan diba?''
''If meron man, hinarang na tayo for sure,'' I giggled.
''Tawa ka dyan, pero iyak ka ng iyak sakin kagabi,'' He turned to me. ''Okay ka lang ba? Wait, of course di ka okay,''
I smiled at him. I met Eli at a social function 5 years ago with some of my medical professional friends, and even though mas matanda sya sakin ng 8 years nagclick kami agad as barkada. Siya yung takbuhan ko whenever I have problems. I was that comfortable with him. And this time around, isang malaking problema kinakaharap ko.
My fiance cheated on me. Well, ex-fiance.
''Wag ka mag alala, nagpaalam ako ni mama na mag wawal-wal ako. Alam niya pa Manila ako. I'll update her later.''
''Eh si erpats?''
''Syempre wala lang sa kanya, ginawa niya kay mama before diba?'' kibit balikat ko, ''And he knows umalis ako, di ko lang sinabi sa kanya san ako pupunta, di naman din sasabihin ni mama sa kanya''
''Eh si batuta?'' Batuta tawag niya kay ex, kasi daw sundalo pero kung umasta parang pulis. Di ko sya magets minsan, parehas lang naman sila. Mga manloloko.
''Hanapin niya ako sa impyerno kung gusto niya''
''Ay di mo ba alam, impyerno ang Manila ngayon, ang init.'' He said while storing my luggage sa sasakyan niya. ''So san tayo, Miss?''
''Sa langit''
Natawa sya. ''Be careful what you wish for''
''Oh, I intend to''
He smiled at that.

Habang nasa daan na kami papunta sa hotel na nabook ko sa Makati, we were catching up. The last time we saw each other was the year before, nung pinuntahan niya ako sa Cebu to celebrate my birthday. Tanong sya ng tanong nun bakit wala yung ex ko nun. Sabi ko on duty. Yun pala, nakaduty sa ibang babae.
''So let me get this straight --- ''
''Wag na natin pag usapan please''
''Pero you do know that one way or another, you have to vent it out. Kasi yung narinig ko kagabi hikbi mo lang at gibberish mo na pagsasalita''
''Bwiset ka talaga kahit kailan!'' Hinampas ko kamay ko sa balikat niya. Nung tumawag kasi ako sa kanya the other night, I was so mad and sad and frustrated di ko nga siguro na straighten out yung pinagsasabi ko.
Hinuli niya yung kamay ko gamit yung right hand niya, and grasped it tightly. ''But kidding aside, I'm glad ako yung una mong tinawagan. At sa akin ka pumunta para sumilong muna''
I looked at him, and saw he was looking at me too. His eyes were intense, yet warm at the same time.
''Sabi ko kasi sayo, ako na lang,''
Tumawa ako, ninenyerbos. ''Gago ka, di tayo talo Ser. Teka, how's Sienna? Nagpaalam ka ba sa kanya?'' Nilihis ko yung usapan.
I knew he had feelings for me before dahil he confessed to me nung kakakilala pa lang namin. I turned it down kasi kaibigan lang talaga yung turing ko sa kanya noon. Plus I was having the time of my life with my then first boyfriend before, and then when he knew I had a relationship with the now ex-fiance, nag joke sya na bakit di daw ako nakapaghintay sa kanya.
''Di ko ba nasabi sayo?'' Sumipat sya sa side mirror nya. ''Wala na kami.''
''Ha, kelan lang? Eh kakasabi mo lang last month nag celebrate kayo ng monthsary nyo ah''
''Yun na nga, monthsary lang, di umabot ng taon,'' tawa pa niyang sabi.
''Ano nga nangyari?''
''Nawala yung spark''
''Ay meganun? Walang third party?''
Tumingin sya sakin, and smiled. ''Di gaya ng sayo, walang third party. Di lang talaga kami click''
''Ah sige asinan mo pa, gusto mo may toyo at suka pa para simot sarap yung sakit, eh ano?''
Tawa sya ng tawa. At ganyan yung tema ng usapan namin until umabot kami sa hotel. We got our bags out, and proceeded to check in. I showed my booking to the receptionist, and asked me if it was a booking for two. I said yes.
Sinundot ako ni Eli while wiggling his eyebrows. ''Ako ba yung pangalawa?''
''Eh sino pa ba?''
''May balak kang masama sa akin?''
Natawa ako, ''Aba sinuswerte ka!''
''Indeed, I am,'' He grinned at me, gathered our stuff and we proceeded to the room reserved for us. It was a room with a double bed, floor to ceiling windows, and a view of the Manila-Makati skyline. It was already 6PM, and the lights were twinkling na. Hinubad ko yung denim jacket ko and tumambay sa may bintana.
A few minutes of silence, and then… I then felt his arms tightening around my waist. ''Ganda ng view''
''Ehem ano ginagawa mo?'' Siniko ko sya.
''Parang di naman natin to nagawa before'' and he proceeded to lick the base of my neck to my left ear.
Yes, siya yung takbuhan ko whenever I have love life problems. Whenever niloloko ako ng mga ex ko. Whenever I feel like I am not good enough.
He was, and is, always there to comfort me.
Maybe that's why men cheat on me. Maybe karma is biting me in my ass.
He comforted me with his hands, which are now gliding to my ribcage, to my breasts, and proceeded to softly cup them, and played with my nipples through the thin fabric of my white shirt.
''Fuck, wala ka na namang bra?'' He hissed while trailing kisses sa neck ko, while grinding his lower body sa puwet ko.
I moaned. ''Bakit ang tigas na niyang alaga mo?''
He removed my shirt which was tucked in sa highwaist pants ko, at hinarap sa kanya. ''Ang ganda mo talaga'' He cupped my breasts again, skin to skin this time. ''Your breasts have always been the right size for my hands''
I kissed him, hard. ''I'm glad wala na kayo ni Sienna. Di ko siya vibes''
He laughed, then kissed me back harder. ''Same lang kayo ng feelings towards each other. Nagseselos yun sayo eh.''
'Well, tit for tat' naisip ko. Tinulak ko sya, then hinubad ko ang pants ko in front of him, and his eyes bulged.
'''Langya ka, wala ding panties?''
''Nagmamarka sa katawan ko eh,'' I shrugged and laid on top of the bed, spreading my legs. ''Fuck me?''
His face darkened, his eyes became more intense, at hinubad din niya kasuotan niya.
I giggled. ''Look who's wearing nothing underneath as well,''
''We compliment each other, love, di mo pa ba alam yun?,'' sabi niya, then went down on me. He sniffed on my pussy, and groaned.
''I really missed you. I missed this pussy of yours. Can I have a taste again?''
Hindi pa man ako nakasagot when he lifted my legs up, tapos sinungaban na niya ang aking puke, like a nomad na nakakita ng oasis.
"Oh shit ka, tangina ka" I moaned, habang namimilipit ako sa sarap ng ginagawa niya.
It was in that moment na narealize ko na I did miss him too. I missed his tongue, which was now laving my pussy with his saliva. He made a few stokes with his magical tongue, then sucked my clit afterwards, and alternating everything in between.
Gosh this man.
I came so much with him just using his mouth pa lang that I groaned in disappointment nung iniwan na ng bibig niya yung puke ko para iangat ang sarili niya sa bed. He looked into my eyes, which was still glazed from cumming, tapos hinalikan niya ako sa labi.
I fought his kisses with mine, na para lang kaming dalawang fencers na naglalaban ang dila namin sa loob ng mga mouths namin.
I gasped for air. ''Please fuck me na, please''
''Oh yes, I will''
He then inserted his rock-hard 6-inch dick on my very wet pussy. We bothed sighed with pleasure nung sinagad niya to the hilt, his cock reaching my inner core. He reached out and kissed me again.
''And I'm glad naghiwalay din kayo ni batuta, love,''
And the rest, as they say, is history.
I woke up to the sound of my alarm going off, it was already 4AM. He was still sleeping soundly, softly snoring. I slowly snuck out of bed, silently dressed up and grabbed my luggages.
It wasn't supposed to happen again. But here I am, walking the hall of shame for the 3rdtime.
He tried to reach out to me that day, but I was desperate to spend my incognito mode on my own.
On my last day sa Manila, dun lang ako nagpakita sa kanya again. In a cafe near the airport.
''So ganun lang?'' tanong niya habang iniinom yung kape niya.
Tumango lang ako.
''Happy ka naman ba sa stay mo dito?'' He sighed. ''Kahit di ka nagpasama sa akin?''
''Trust me when I say it was the best night after a very long time'' I smiled sadly. ''I just need to find myself this time around.''
A few years after that, nabalitaan ko na lang na he is now happy with someone else. I was genuinely happy for him. He deserves it.
At heto ako, single pa rin. But definitely happier.
