Youssef opened his eyes and looked steadily for five seconds at the dark ceiling of his room. The room was quite dark because of the somber hue of the curtains. The two – storey villa was located in the center of one of his mother's farm in Cataingan, Masbate. It was five hundred meters away from the road that made the place very serene. It was the reason why he woke up late in the morning. The place was very different when he was in the City. In the City, he knew there were a lot of disturbances. After the woman with a name of Emily left the house, the place was like a vacuum: empty and very quiet. The clangorous serenity made him to sleep so quickly. He sighed with relief that made his mind became conscious of his present situation, but after few seconds he automatically experienced the riveting pain in his head. He groaned with pain as his right hand reflexively clasped his head with his fingers digging on its flesh. It was the residue of the hard wine that he drank too much last night. He massaged his head with such greater force as if his fingers would crack the skull of his head. He growled continuously with trail of curses. Few minutes later of massaging his head with uncountable curses emitted from his mouth, he felt the pain a little bit subsided. He heard himself inhaled heavily and the drifting soul of the sweet perfume of a woman circled his nostril and reached his lungs.
''Oh, lovely shit!''
He whispered with a grin in his lips.
He pulled his muscularly built torso up then removed the thick mattress wrapped around his body. He ran his eyes on his body and found himself totally naked. He smiled naughtily as he reminisced the satisfaction he attained from his last night's affair. He bowed his head and saw his precious component with some detritus of her dried mucous or tissues being tore apart. He slightly shook his head with a grin when the memories of the extreme pleasure he had experienced abruptly like an electromagnetic wave splashed and vibrated all over of his body and reached even the tiniest cells within. His thought reached satisfaction! He moved toward the edge of his bed and sat for a few moments. He clasped his head by his both hands while his elbows were settled in his strong legs. He felt again the thousands of minions that came back as if they were dancing and stamping around his head. Few minutes of breathing lightly while staring at the expensive floor made of marble, he felt his mouth was dry and his throat demanded for cold water that made his mind to decide to go out of the room. He stood slowly and sensed his body if he could be able to walk. When his mind perceived that he could make some steps, he turned directly toward his door on the way out. He closed the door behind him and walked totally naked. Well, he was the only human being in the house and nothing to worry about. The maids and workers would be only available if his mother comes home from Canada. He remembered again the woman in the name of Emily that made his night hot, cocky, and wonderful and brought his mind beyond fantasy. Although she was gone but the memories still lingering in his mind. He traversed the five - meter corridor of the house and padded on the way to the stairs.
As Youssef started to walk, the shattered memories of his last - night affair automatically generated in the conscious part of his mind. The pleasurable memories made the nailing pain inside of his head had gone for a while.
It was almost very late at night when he and his friend Edward agreed to visit a local beerhouse in the town. It was four years after the successful discovery of the vaccine, everything in the municipality returned into normal circumstances. This included the affairs behind the darkness of the calmed night. A kind of affairs which always done secretly and much privately. A secret affair that once an individual had experienced it could lead someone to forget the memories the following day. But not to Youssef for the memories last night still lurking in his head. The last night affair was the cure of his almost one year living in dryness.
Youssef and Edward parked their cars just five meters away from the entrance of the beerhouse. They got out of the car and walked directly to the closed door guarded by two men in black with heights like mountains and with bodies as rigid as rock. The man in the right, relative from Youssef, opened the door with an expressionless face while the one in the left scrutinized them intently by his piercing eyes. They slipped inside and the cocky - rocky music banged their ears. At first, Youssef eardrums would almost explode and got few seconds only for total adaptation. They almost stopped at the near center of the wide beerhouse watching the marvelous and erotic dance presentation in the stage. But it wasn't the dance presentation that they wanted to see. Edward leaned to his ears and with a naughty smile in his face whispered something to Youssef.
''We arrived in perfect time, buddy.''
After he said the words, Edward withdrew himself, stood erect and crossed his arms over his wide and muscular chest. Youssef saw Edward's eyes salivating like a hungry predator.
''Absolutely!''
He answered him with a grin.
The music was highly erotic and it penetrated to the deepest alcove of his mind. When the music was absorbed by his blood and ran toward his mind, it automatically kicked his amygdala and hippocampus. The music created a painful but sensual pain in his loins.
Five minutes of scrutinizing the place which occupied mostly by the rich people, they walked straight to the counter and ordered some local beers. They left the counter then turned to their right side and sat on the table located on the left side of the stage that Youssef thought as a perfect perspective for having no walls that would block their line of sight for the most awaited presentation. It was five minutes after twelve of the deep evening, the erotic music was started to escalate on its way towards climax. The high intensity of the sound reverberated in his head and tickled even his tiniest cells. Youssef felt an excitement. He cannot explain the reason for what he felt. After his girlfriend left him without any logical reason, it seemed his body craving for carnal experiences. He did not know what was wrong with him. He did not know if it was a form of revenge to her but his body and mind was the one that suffered the pain at the end. He shook his head to remove the dolorous moment in his life. His line of thought was diverted when the quite wide curtain in bloody red was ripped into two then tucked itself on the both sides of the stage. In just a second, the beautifully modulated lights appeared as it combined with the sensual music that heightened the desire of the eyes of every man inside of the refreshing and relaxing cellar of pleasure. Five young women in their fabulous and highly expensive stilettos only welcomed their eyes. Applause was heard from the audience that made the five women to move forward in such graceful, elusive, seductive and entertaining moves. Youssef's body demanded for hard liquor to drink. He raised his right hand on the waiter behind the counter to signal him for some orders. The waiter walked briskly toward him, then bent a little his body to listen for the orders. In just five minutes, two hard liquors arrived.
''It seems you want to enjoy this night, buddy.''
Edward said to him with a raised pitch of voice as he competed with the loud music. Youssef gulped his wine then stared at Edward with a grin.
''That babe is mine, Ed.''
He gulped his first shot.
''She keeps on staring at you, buddy.''
Edward answered him with a smile.
''I also noticed that, buddy.''
''His perfect for you. She's new here.''
''Meaning?''
''She's still untouched.''
''That's impossible, buddy!''
''Yeah, I'm telling you.''
''I guess a lot of patrons here want her tonight.''
He gulped another shot.
''I don't want – ''
Edward interrupted him. Edward knew what Youssef wanted to say. He knew that most of the patrons inside the nightclub were rich individuals also like him. Youssef did not want any trouble because he did not want to stain the reputation of his mother.
''No worry buddy, I already reserved her for you. These elite patrons here knew it already.''
''Really, buddy?''
Youssef cannot believe the thing he heard from Edward.
''Yeah, you deserve someone especial to mend your heart.''
Edward answered. Youssef simply chuckled.
''I'm afraid to make her scream the whole night.''
''Wish you luck, buddy.''
Edward punched his shoulder lightly.
''Oh, come on.''
They both laughed loudly.
''How about you, buddy.''
Youssef asked Ed for his choice.
''The one at the center. I like her.''
''She's perfect for exploration.''
Youssef responded with a wicked grin.
''You're absolutely right, buddy.''
They laughed again loudly.
Five minutes after the short dance presentation, two ladies approached them. They were now wearing some clothes. Few minutes for introductions. Then, the woman in her twenty-five, who was Edward's choice with a name of Eunice, sat directly on his lap. They ordered some ladies' wine and had few conversations. After almost fifteen minutes of chatting, Youssef saw Edward winking at him as he escorted Eunice on the way out of the nightclub. Youssef simply nodded with a grin in his face. Then he turned his eyes at the young woman with a shy smile printed in her face sitting beside him. In the near distance, Youssef found her extraordinarily beautiful. He did not know if it was because of the hard wine that he drank or she was really interestingly gorgeous. Her presence heightened the pain he felt in his loins.
''You want to have some fun tonight, Emily.''
Youssef whispered in her ear. Her perfumed was absorbed by his nose and sent a thrilling sensation.
''More than that, Youssef.''
Emily answered him while she squeezed lightly his shoulder. Her soft touch hardened him so much.
Emily felt the warmth breath of him against her skin that made her heart to soften. Emily cannot believe that his first customer would be an Adonis type of man.
'No love must be involved; this is simply your work.' Emily warned herself.
After they agreed to each other, Youssef gulped his last drop of wine and led Emily out of the nightclub.
