TATIANA

"It's you!" Gulat na sigaw ni bipolar guy. We got  the same reaction, widened eyes while pointing our finger to each other. Bumaba rin ang tingin ko sa katawan ko ng bumama ang tingin ni Bipolar do'n.

I glared at him. "What are you lookin' at you perver—" I was about to curse him but this shithead has cut me off.

He's starting to piss me again. He's not called a Shithead for nothing.

"What happened? " Bristole asked without even minding his subordinates reaction at all. He's just staring at me directly with his eyes filled of confusion.

"Don't tell me—naka patay ka?!" Pambibintang ni Bipolar guy na mabilis kong inilingan hababg may masamang tingin.

I actually understand him because I'm covered with blood but the way he said it is annoying my whole body as if he's certain that I killed someone.

"Tanga ka ba? Haharingin ko ba kayo kung pumatay ako ng tao?" Sarkastikong tanong ko, my brows furrowed. My crime would be meaningless if I were to to that. I'll make sure to kill the bystanders too but sadly, I didn't killed someone. But if I really did, Bipolar would be the first one on my list.

Ofcourse, I'm not kidding. He annoys me, he's also a shithead after all.

"I don't know, maybe you're just trying to act innocent so you won't look suspicious." Sarkastikong sagot niya.

Mas lalong sumama ang tingin ko sa kaniya. "I will surely kill you after this! Mark my damn word you fucking sh—"

Gusto kong pagumpugin ang magkaibigang 'to, ngayon na. I haven't even finish what I was about say yet this motherfucker choose to interrupt me, AGAIN.

"So you really killed someone huh?" Bristole asked.

"Kinakausap ba kita?! Ha? Stop your intervention shits! I don't need your freaking opinions, just your car." Inis sa sagot ko sa kaniya. I can't waste my time here, that motherfucking Chinese could lose more blood. He could die.

Shit! baka matuluyan na yung chinese na yon 'pag nakipag gaguhan pa ko sa kanila. I need to hurry.

"Open this goddamn door!" Utos ko sa dalawa.

"H-huh? At bakit naman? Ayokong madamay sa krimen—" Nag papanic na tanggi ni Bipolar guy pero hindi ako nakinig.

"Just open the fucking door!" I shouted angrily while glaring at Bipolar guy's direction.

He sighted. "No! I don't want to get into more trouble—Bro, what the fuck is your problem?! Stop pushing me!" I could see irritation in his face as he was being push out from the driver's seat by his friend, Bristole who took his spot. He opened the door for me as if he wants to me sit on the passenger seat where he sat earlier.

"What now? " Nakasimangot na tanong ni Bristole.

What now, Tatiana? I'm not really good at this shit.

"H-help. He n-needs help! The mother fucking Chinese needs your help! Help us!"  I said as I tried to avoid their gazes.

"Motherfucking what?" Bipolar guy asked. Salubong ang mga kilay niya habang nakatingin sa akin bago kay Bristole na nakatingin lang sa akin na para bang hinhintay akong mag salita pa kaya tinuloy ko.

"I don't have time to fucking explain."I said. "H-he's dying. Help him."  Nahihiyang pakiusap ko bago umiwas ng tingin. I don't like this feeling at all.

I'm not used to this, damn. You better live, you motherfucking chinese. I even asked help from these shitheads.

"W-what?! Bakit ngayon mo lang sinabi?!"Gulat na tanong ni Bipolar guy bago nagsimulang nagpanic. Nagmamadali siyang pumasok uli sa kotse bago lumbas 'uli peri sa sandaling 'to, may dala-dala na siyang first aid kit.

"Your fucking friend is always cutting me off. How am i supposed to explain to yo—"

"Where is he? Did he got shot or stabbed?" Kung kanina, Si Bristole ang putol ng putol sa mga salita ko, ngayon naman ay si Bipolar guy.

Calm down. Calm down, woman. He's a fucker. Don't mind him this time. You must save the motherfucking Chinese. Hindi dapat ako magpadala sa bugso ng damdamin ngayon. Kailangan kong kumalma dahil buhay ang nakasalalay dito.

Huminga ako ng malalim para pakalmahin ang sarili ko. This guys is really getting into my nerves. "Follow me. " I said calmly and begun to lead them the way. They followed me all the way to Master Zhiang's location.

"W-what the fuck?!" Gulat na sigaw ni Bipolar guy.

Nag panic ako ng makitang hindi na nagalaw si Master Zhiang pero pilit kong kinalma ang sarili ko. I need to be tough and brave, just like what Un and othe others said.

"Stop panicking. Kailangan natin siyang dalhin sa hospital." I said.

"Look who's talking. you calm down first, wench." He murmured.

"Narinig kita, gago!" Sigaw ko sa kaniya.

"Stop arguing, you two." sita ni Bristole sa aming dalawa.

Pareho kaming natahimik ni Bipolar guy. Bipolar guy tsked before walking towards the motherfucking chinese's location. Ininspeksiyon niya ang Chinese bago tintignan ang pulso nito sa wrist at leeg niya. He also checked his breathing from the Chinese's nose.

Oh, right. Sigurado akong paubos na ang dugo ni master Zhiang.

Nag tulungan si Brooke at Bristole na buhatin si Master Zhiang at dinala sa kotseng sinasakyan nila kanina.

Nagulat pa ako nung buksan ko yung pintuan ng kotse sa backseat dahil may tao pala doon na naka sandal sa bintana ng kotse. Dahil nga binuksan ko nahulog siya sa harapan namin.

"What the hell?!" Galit na sigaw ng taong 'yon na bahagya kong ikinagulat.

I'm surprised that someone was in there, sleeping while we were out here, panicking because someone might die on our arms.

"Damn! Nakalimutan kong natutulog pala si Flame sa backseat HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Pasensiya na, God bless!"
Kamot ulong sabi ni Bipolar guy dahilan para matalim siyang tignan ni Flame, he says.

So, that guy who keeps on staring at me at the Academy was named after Flame. His name was Flame yet he's cold like an ice.

He was about to punch Bipolar guy but his eyes caught mine. Bumaba ang tingin niya sa katawan ko.

"What are you--"

"Whatever. " aniya at bumalik na sa pag kakaupo sa backseat na para bang walang nakita. Kampante siyang umupo do'n na para bang hindi siya nahulog mula sa inuupuan niya kanina, na para bang hindi siya nakakita ng babaeng puro duguan at tropa niyang may bitbit na duguang Chinese.

Remind me to kill these shitheads later. He's indeed their friend after all.

Dahil hindi kami pwedeng magsayang ng oras, agad akong sumakay sa backseat. Nang komportable na akong nakaupo ro'n, bumukas muli ang pintuan sa gilid ko at sinalubong ako ni Bristole na salubong ang kilay na nakatingin sa akin bago sa katabi kong si Flame na mukhang natulog 'uli.

"Anong ginagawa mo diyan?" Salubong na kilay na tanong niya.

Tinaasan ko siya ng kilay, "Is your vision that bad? Malamang, nakaupo." Ganti ko.

"Get out. Go sit on the passenger seat."  Nagulat pa ako ng marinig kong nagsalita ang katabi kong si Flame na akala ko ay natulog 'uli.

Sumimangot ako. "Damn it. Pasalamat kayo kailangan ko ng tulong niyo ngayon." Bulong ko. "You'll pay for this."

Bago ako umalis ay nahagip pa ng mata ko si Flame. He's smirking but his eyes was closed while his hand were placed on it, covering almost both his eyes.

Padabog akong umalis sa pag kakaupo sa backseat at sumakay sa unahan para umupo sa passenger seat.

"What the fuck was that?!" Rinig kong sigaw ni Flame sa likuran ng ipatong ng dalawa si Master Zhiang kay flame kasabay ng pag tulak ni Bristole kay Bipolar guy paupo sa tabi ni Flame. Ngayon kalong ni Bipolar guy at Flame si Master Zhiang.

"Fuck you, dude!" inis na sigaw ni Bipolar guy mula sa likuran. "This is my car! Bakit ikaw ang mag D-drive?! Damn, I should've crashed your other car that day as a payment for this."

"You're not my type, dude. I'm straight so go fuck yourself." Baliwalang sabi ni Bristole at nag simula ng mag maneho. "Leave my car alone, bro." He added before maneuvering the steering wheel. Napatitig ako sa kamay ni Bristole na hawak ang steering wheel nang napansin ko ang nagkikintaban niyang mga singsing.

He wears a lot which means he doesn't want to marry someone base on my perspective. His ring finger is empty while the other remaining fingers was not. I conclude that it's reserve for his special someone or he doesn't want to marry someone. I kinda relate to my second conclusion though. If I were to choose, I don't want  marry someone. Letting someone into my fucked up life woulf make everything more messy but that's not for me to decide, it's the Maurer's decision to make, not mine.

He look hot, by the way. Eyeing straight on the road while his hands were effortless hot while steering the steering wheel. Pero hindi ko pa rin siya type. I don't like gloomy and depressed guys. If i told them I want to die, they might answer "Yeah, do you want to do a double suicide with me?" What the fuck that's messed up.

Nag sasagutan lang silang tatlo habang ako ay diretso lang ang tingin sa dinadaanan namin. I need to. I know they're trying to search for me. Kilala ko si Butler lee. Lahat ng pwedeng daanan o puntahan ko ay pupuntahan nila. Pero tingin ko ay mas okay na makita nila kami ngayon dahil mas mapapabilis kami kung kasama sila. They might bring a chopper with them since the motherfucking Chinese's villa is located in a fucking deserted island. Also, some of my bodyguards has also experience in various type of medical fields since that's one of the crucial thing they need to have in order to get employed by us.

"Huh? What's that?" Nagtatakang tanong ni Bipolar guy mula sa likuran habang pinipigilan niya ang pag agos nung dugo mula sa parte ng katawan ni Master Zhiang na may tama ng bala.

Speaking of the devils, here they are. Kakasabi ko lang, ayan na nga ba ang sinasabi ko.

My eyes widen when I saw the three of them loading their guns like thugs. I'm beyond shock as I watched them load their guns which is I don't even know where they took from while looking straight ahead us coldly where Butler Lee and the others were doing a checkpoint. Napansin ko rin na wala rin palang suot na singsing ang middle finger ni Bristole sa kanang kamay niya habang sa kaliwa ay ring finger naman niya ang walang suot na singsing.

Weird but I liked the idea. Showing of your empty middle finger to someone while the others were not would be an amazing idea. It's not up to him to decide about how and what they interpret it, it's up to the person who interprets what's the meaning behind him, showing his empty middle finger. That would be funny yet mind blowing technique.

Parang naging ibang tao bigla silang tatlo ng mga oras na 'to. At isa pa, Senior highschool pa lang kami! Bakit may mga baril sila?! As far as I know, we shouldn't have guns with us at this age! What the fuck are these three shitheads? Don't tell me they're part of some dangerous organization? What was it called again? Mafoil? Mafyie? Hindi ba't illegal ang ginagawa nila? Ang dating nila ngayon ay parang sanay na sanay sila na humawak ng baril dahil sa bilis nilang nakuha ito mula sa kung saan dahil 'di ko man lang nakitang kumuha sila ng baril. Are they gangsters? Thugs?

"Chill shitheads. They're my companions." I explained, trying to break the growing tension inside the car. They sure look as if they're ready to massacre them which is really horrifying to witness all alone.

"Are you sure?" Paninigurado ni Flame na gising pa pala. He's holding a revolver while straightly looking at my companions direction as if he's ready to shoot them any time.

"Hell yeah--"

"She's telling the truth." pag puputol ni Bristole sa sinasabi ko.

Sinamaan ko kaagad siya ng tingin, "Pwede ba? Patapusin mo muna ako? Ano bang mahirap do'n?" I asked, frustrated.

"Whatever." He rolled his eyes like the way I always did mine.

He'a mocking me! He's surely mocking me!

"Stop it, dude. " Pag awat ni Brooke. "Pikon na si Maurer,oh. Pabayaan mo na siya, pikon eh." Nang aasar na aniya.

Mabilis ko siyang nilingon at sinamaan ng tingin. "Hey! hey! hey! Chill!" natatawang sabi niya habang nakataas ang dalawang kamay.

"Tsk. Pikon." I heard someone murmured.

"That's not me." Depensa ni Bristole ng lingunin ko siya habang nakataas ang isang kilay.

"Hoy, Flame, ikaw 'yon, ano? Tangina mo, 'wag kang mag tulugtulugan diyan!"

"Ang pikon mo." Bristole said.

"Ang pabibo mo." ganti ko.

"Ang arte mo."

"Ang pakielamero mo."

"Ang pula ng buhok mo."

"Ang dami mong singsing. You must be a playboy who's afraid of commitments." Singit ko habang may nakakalokong ngisi.

"Hmm, you noticed them? How is it?" He asked, still looking straight as if he's observing their movements from here.

"Why did you left your middle finger and ring finger empty?" I asked out of confusion, avoiding his previous question because I don't want to admit that I liked it.

"They have their own purpose to be done. First is for marriage, second is to fuck you." Diretsong sagot niya na agad na nagpaubo sa'kin at gulat na nilingon siya habang ang mga kasama niya sa likod ay napaubo rin sa gulat.

"DAMNNNN." Narinig kong banat ni Bipolar guy bago sinabayan ng tawa nang makabawi.

"Smooth," I hear Flame mumbled.

"Payag ka no'n, Maurer? Fuck you daw? Payag ka? ginaganiyan ka lang ni Bristole?" Pangaasar ni Bipolar guy.

Galit kong nilingon si Bipolar guy bago ko pinakita ang gitnang daliri ko. Nagulay pa ako pagtingin ko sa pwesto ni Bristole dahil wala na siya do'n. Siyempre, nag panic agad ako at tumingin sa pwesto nila Butler Lee. Malayo sila mula sa pwesto namin kaya hindi pa nila kami napapansin lalo na't masyadong madilim dito dahil walang street lights na makikita kahit saan.

My mouth almost fell from my its original position when I saw him walking towards Butler Lee and the other's location. Agad akong lumabas ng kotse at tinakbo ang puwesto niya. Mabuti na lang talaga at hindi pa siya nakakalayo kaya naabutan ko pa siya at hindi pa siya napapansin nila Butler Lee mula sa kalayuan.

I stopped him by grabbing his arm. Nilingon niya ako at takang tumingin sa akin, "Do you need something?" Kalmadong tanong niya, walang paki sa mga matang nakatingin sa amin mula sa sasakyan na pinanggalingan namin.

"Where the fuck are you going?" Inis na tanong ko.

"To your so called companions?"

"At bakit naman? They might shoot you right away."

"They won't since I'll tell them you're with me. They won't know your whereabouts without me spilling it, they can't afford to lose me as their informant today." He explained.

"No. I'll go." Presenta ko bago ko siya tinalikuran.

Hindi pa ako nakakailang hakbang ay pinigilan na niya ako sa pamamagitan nang paghablot sa braso ko. Nilingon ko siya, "Ano?" Iritang tanong ko.

He stared at me for a couple of seconds before whispering something unexpected, "Güvende ol, Maurer."

That's be safe in Turkish!

Agad na nanlaki ang mga mata ko bago ko siya gulat na tinignan, "Y-you can speak Turkish?"

"Uh-huh. Any problem with that?" Tanong niya habang nakataas ang isang kilay tulad ng lagi kong ginagawa.

I rolled my eyes, trying to stay calm before turning my back from him as I walked away from him. I need to get help for the Chinese.

Hindi na ko nag sayang ng oras at tumakbo na papunta kila Butler Lee. Hindi na ko nagulat ng makitang mas dumoble ang dami nila. I could see Samuel from my our distance, he's busy with his crew alongside their pets. I'm kinda surprised to see K9 dogs alongside them. Parang ang bilis naman ata nilang nakakuha ng back-up?

"Butler Lee!" Sigaw ko para makuha ang pansin nila.

Mabilis kong naagaw ang atensyon nila. Ang iba ay agad akong nilapitan at inalalayan ng makitang hingal na hingal pa ako.

I stopped myself from making a disgusted face. OA, but they just want to keep their jobs, I get their point.

"Young lady! Are you okay?" Bungad sa akin ni Butler Lee. He didn't dare to check my whole body if I was hurt or something since he knew what I hate the most.

He just go around while minding his own business, to protect me not to mind my businesses. That's what I liked about Butler Lee, he gives me my privacy and space as long as my parents' are out of my business.

Tumango ako. "I saw the motherfucking Chinese! He's still—" I was about to explain everything but he cut me off.

"We need to go, young lady." Nag mamadaling sabi niya.

"Ha? Bakit?" takang tanong ko. Shit! We need to act faster. He's losing more blood!

"We need to save him. He's—" Hindi pa ako natatapos sa sinasabi ko ay pinutol na agad ni Butler Lee. He sounds like something unexpected came up which is what I need to find out later.

"Please, young lady! We need to go now. I'm begging you! Your cooperation is a must!" He sounds desperate this time.

What the fuck happened? What's wrong with everyone? Why?I don't know what to think first, more problems and suspicions are building up inside my almost wreck mind. Everything looks pretty messed up. I don't know which one I should solve, I don't know anymore.

Nagulat ako ng biglang may naramdaman akong kamay na pumalibot sa akin hanggang sa umangat na ako mula sa lupa.

"What the fuck?! Put me down!" I ordered.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Maurer, but I can't do that. You're life is at risk right now."

"Samuel?! Damn you! put me down! Now!" Galit na sigaw ko at pilit na nagoupumiglas pero hindi man lang 'to natinag at nagsimula ng maglakad papunta sa kakarating lang na chopper.

Natigilan ako ng makita ko ang pamilyar na mga taong nakaputi. Those white suit and masks, there's no way I would forget those fuckers who dragged Mr. Veniasoz's body like an animal. Those merciless motherfuckers.

"Hey, put me down! They're waiting for me! Samuel! Ibaba mo 'ko! Ngayon na! Hoy!" I yelled but he didn't even bulge. He's just carrying me like a sack of rice.

Hindi ko na magawang manlaban dahil pilit na itinatanong ng isip ko sa sarili ko ang dahilan kung bakit nandito ang mga nakaputing tao. What's their motive this time? Did someone died here? Could it be... No. Master Zhiang is with Bristole and his friends. There's no way.

Wala na 'kong nagawa nang iupo na nila ko sa loob ng helicopter. Agad na umangat ang helicopter na sinasakyan namin nang makasakay na rin si Samuel. Because I'm worried, I tried to look down from the chopper's window. Nanlaki agad ang mga mata ko ng makitang tumatakbo si Bristole palapit sa amin habang sa likod niya ay si Brook.

Kahretsin! Baka madamay pa sila! Siktir!

Agad kong binuksan ang bintana sa tabi ko. "Dür! Durdur seni bok kafalı! orada dur!" Stop! Stop you fucking shithead! Stop right there!

I'm not that stupid. I shouted in another language to avoid suspicions from my companions. Baka mas mapalala pa kung sisigaw ako sa linguwaheng alam at maiintindihan nila kaya Turkish ang ginamit ko. Isa pa, sa pagkakaalam ko ay hindi marunong at nakakaintindi ng Turkish si Samuel kaya mas maganda.

Hindi ko alam kung narinig ba niya 'ko, basta ang ginawa ko ay sumigaw lang ng sumigaw. Nakahinga ako ng maluwag ng makitang hinila siya ni Brook pabalik at nang hindi sila napansin ng iba pang natirang bodyguards sa ibaba.

Hang in there, shitheads. You must survive.

"Fuck this." I murmured.

"May problema ba, Ms. Maurer?" Kampanteng tanong ni Samuel na hindi ko alam na katabi ko pala. Ang akala ko ay sa tabi ng piloto siya tumabi para i-assist 'to.

I gave him a glare, "I told you to put me down earlier and yet you didn't even try to listen to my order." Inis na tugon ko.

Pilit siyang ngumiti, "Ehehe. Pasensiya na, Ms. Maurer pero kaligtasan mo ang una naming prayoridad." Paliwanag niya.

"Safety my ass." Ungot ko.

Nakita naman nilang ligtas ako diba? Hindi pa ba sapat 'yon? Ngayon tuloy ay nagsisimula na akong magsisi na lumabas pa ako ng kotse at humingi ng tulong sa kanila. Mas pinalala ko lang ang lahat. Damn it! This is all my fault.

"I'm telling the truth though."

"Whatever. 'Wag mo kong kausapin."

Nakaalis na kaya sila? I hope that they're safe. Paano kaya sila makakaalis mula rito? Malayo pa ang islang 'to mula sa bayan. I'm not even sure if there's a way to escape from here except from using an any aircraft or ships.

Bumuntong hininga ako. "Kahretsin!" Mahinang mura ko.  Damn it!

Fuck! I'm worried as fuck. I don't even know why I'm this concerned about their safety.

"Lalalalalalala, Lalalalalalala."

"Hey, Where's Butler lee?" Tanong ko kay Samuel na ngayon ko lang napansin na nanahimik bigla.

"Lalalalalalala, lalalalalala."

I looked at him weirdly as if he's the most creepy person I have ever met since I existed from this fucked up world. Mukha siyang tanga. Naka takip ang dalawang kamay niya sa mga tenga niya at habang nakatalikod sa akin at puro lalalalalala lang ang lumalabas sa bibig niya.

Weirdo. Why am I always surrounded by weirdo's?

"Hey!" Tawag ko rito.

"Lalalalalalalalala."

"Hey, I'm talking to you!"

"Lalalalalalalalala."

"Samuel! "

"Lalalalalalalala. "

What the fuck is wrong with him?

I sighed in frustration. Nababaliw na ba siya? What's with the lalalalalala thing? A code? He's been acting weirdly since we sat here. I don't get people these days.

I'm really worried about those guys. What worries me the most is how are they going to leave this deserted island? Even we are having a hard time to find this place since that Chinese is a freaking billionaire. He owns thousands of island. Kung iba siguro ay mahihirapang hanapin ang lugar kung nasaan siya dahil sa dami ng isla niya. Isa sa mga isla na 'yon ang lugar kung nasaan kami ngayon. Medyo may kalayuan ito sa siyudad kaya kailangan talaga ng mas mabilis na transportasyon. Nagulat pa nga kami dahil sinalubong kami ng mga tauhan niya daw kuno at hinatid sa villa niya no'ng oras na kakarating lang namin sa dalampasigan. This has been bugging me since earlier. Those guys, why are they here? How come? Is it just a coincidence? Fate?

Dahil sigurado akong matatagalan pa ang biyahe, napagpasiyahan ko nang gamitin ang isa sa mga telepono ko. Dumiretso na ako sa messanges dahil napansin ko na maraming hindi pa nababasa. I instantly rolled my eyes the moment I saw my other cousins name. I really hate their vibe, how they act nicely when I'm around. They're saying that they're worried as fuck and they can't wait for my recovery. Worried my ass. Baka nga may selebrasyon pang nagaganap sa mga mansiyon nila ngayon.

Worried my ass.

'I don't think so. ' I replied without any hesitation.

Napakunot ang noo ko nang napansin ko ang 'di ko kilalang numero. Pero dahil wala na akong magawa at gusto ko ring malaman ang intensiyon nito kaya binuksan ko ang mensaheng binigay niya.

"Hey, I'm the owner." Basa ko rito.

Confusion surrounded me. Owner? Owner of what? Maybe she/he got the wrong number.

Dahil mukha namang sa maling numero nagpadala ang nagpadala ng mensaheng natanggap ki, hindi ko na ako nag abalang tumugon dito.

Puro scroll lang ako sa inbox ko dahil puro pangangamusta lang naman ang bungad na nakikita ko. Alam ko kalahati sa kanila—baka nga halos lahat pa sila ang pasikretong may galit sa akin. Why? Because of my so called bitchy attitude, they say. Seriously? Just because I didn't accept the friendship which is what they want from the beginning, I'm a bitch? I don't need a friend who owns a shitty mindset like that.

I'm not born yesterday, scumbags.

I rolled my eyes. Sunod ko namang tinignan ang mga tawag na hindi ko nasagot. As expected, they're from those a.k.a concerned plastics.

Napakunot mulu ang noo ko ng mamataan ko na naman ang kaparehong numero nung nag padala sa akin ng mensahe na "owner" daw kuno. She/he called four times.

Sinubukan ko itong tawagan pero hindi nito sinasagot kaya tumigil na lang din ako.

Someone's POV before the incident at Master Zhiang's island.

I gritted my teeth as I looked at their smilling faces. Hawak ko ang family portrait ng mga Maurer.

Maurer's... You can enjoy your now since I haven't started yet. Enjoy your life to its fullest.

"Just wait 'till I make my move. I will erased your smiles with my own hands. Not now but soon... "

Napako ang tingin ko sa nag iisang babae na may pulang buhok. Red haired, huh?

"I see... She's still alive and kickin' some ass. " I whispered.

"Yo!" An annoying person greets me while peeking from the door.

"What? " I asked before hiding the Maurer's family picture.

He entered from the door as handed me another picture, "Bristole Nolan Brown."

Napataas ang kilay ko. That name rings a bell. "Continue," Utos ko habang nanatiling nakatitig sa litrato ng isang lalaki na nakasandal sa isang asul na kotse.

"He's been hanging out with the Red haired maurer. What do you think?" He asked with his usual grin.

I gave him a harmful glare, "Don't try to piss me off. You're fully aware that you wont like it, right?" I asked. I took a sip from my tea.

Itinaas niya ang dalawang kamay na para bang sumusuko,"Chill out! I'm just asking for your opinion. Why are you getting mad?" Natatawang tanong niya.

"Who wouldn't be mad? I just saw you for pete's sake." I said in a grumpy tone.

He rolled his eyes, "Isn't it great? You could see and hear my lovely haiku and tanka." Mayabang na sagot niya kaya hindi na ako nag atubiling hugutin ang nakatago kong baril mula sa sapatos ko at mabilis na itinapat sa kaniya 'yon.

"I don't give a fuck about your dramatic shits. If you want to piss me, you can now leave since you already did."

"Whoa! But they're not dramatic—" Kinasa ko kaagad ang kahawak kong baril bago ko muling itinutok sa kaniya 'to dahilan para matigilan siya sa pagsasalita.

"Bye-bye!" Paalam niya bago maingat na isinara ang pintuan.

Don't fuck with me if you don't want to be fucked. Don't mess with me if you don't want me to make a mess with your life.

Binaba ko na ang baril na hawak ko at muling kinuha ang litrato ng mga Maurers mula sa pinagtaguan ko nito. Napatitig ako sa litratong katabi ng family picture ng mga Maurer.

Bristole, huh?

I don't remember his face at all but his name really rings a bell to my head. I don't think I've met him in person but his name sounds familiar just like the car behind him.

For the meant time, I'll say silent. I won't make any move for now not until that woman's comeback, one of my trump card's comeback.

I will use you to cause chaos between them then, I'll make my move.

Sorry for typos and grammatical errors hehe.
