KNIGHTS I-6: Pursuing Cinderella (Trigger Knights)

Chapter 47

"Trigger, pansinin mo naman ako," pangungulit ni Miracle sa asawa na hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin siya tinatapunan ng tingin.

She pouted her lips before pulling his shirt. Masama pa rin ang tingin ng asawa nang lingunin siya nito.

"Hindi ko naman sinasadyang makisali kanina, e. Nag-alala lang ako sa 'yo," she explained.

He placed his gun on the table before smirking a little. "You don't know how worried I am a while ago, Miracle. I was fucking shaking thinking that you might end up having nightmares about what you did, thinking that you might get hurt while holding that fucking gun. I was fucking trembling in fear."

Nanubig ang mga mata ng babae sa sinabi nito. Ngayon lang nagalit ang lalaki sa kaniya kaya kinakabahan siya sa maaaring resulta ng pagsasagutan nila. Tanggap naman niya ang pagkakamali niya, nag-aalala lang talaga ang asawa niya kaya ganito ito umakto.

"Pero ayos lang ako, Trigger. Promise, hindi naman ako nakokonsensya sa ginawa natin--"

"Natin? Killing is one of my job and it has nothing to with you. You're not well prepared for this kind of thing and it can affect you, Miracle," galit na sabat ng lalaki.

"Pero hindi nga ako nakokonsensya. Deserve nilang mamatay. Paano pala kung may mga nasaktan sa ginawa nilang panggugulo kanina?"

She bit her lower lip when his face darkened even more. Wala na siyang alam na isasagot dito kaya mas mabuti pang baliktarin na lang niya ang sitwasyon.

"At anong sabi mo? Sanay ka sa pagpatay? Why am I not aware of your hidden job, Trigger? Hindi mo man lang sinabi sa akin na may trabaho kang ganito," galit niyang saad.

Biglang lumambot ang ekspresyon ng asawa dahil sa sinabi niya. "Baby, I was planning to tell you but I can't find the right time. But I swear, I'm so close to telling you about my other job."

She crossed her arms around her chest. "Maniwala ako. Baka nga wala ka talagang balak sabihin sa akin." Bahagya siyang lumingon sa lalaki at nagulat nang makitang nag-iba muli ang ekspresyon nito. "B-Bakit?"

"Are you trying to put the blame on me? So you can save your self from our conversation a while ago?"

She pouted her lips. "Eh kasi naman! Sinusuyo na nga kita tapos ayaw mo pa rin akong patawarin. Ang hirap-hirap magpa-cute sa 'yo."

Trigger just rolled his eyes before sitting on the swivel chair. He grabbed the glass of wine before looking intently at her. "You're expert at manipulating things, even a person."

Natawa siya sa sinabi nito. Mabilis siyang naglakad papalapit sa asawa at saka ito nginitian. "Bati na tayo, ha?"

Her husband chuckled with her actions. Nilahad nito ang braso na agad namang hinawakan ni Miracle. Inalalayan siya ng lalaki na kumandong dito.

Nakangiting yumakap ang babae sa katawan ng asawa at saka ito hinalikan sa pisngi. "Hindi na ako papatay ng walang paalam, promise."

Mas lumakas pa ang tawa ng katabi. "So you still have plans of killing a person, but with my permission?"

She nodded her head. "Yes. Kapag kaaway mo. Dapat kung anong trabaho mo, trabaho ko rin."

"It's not good for your mental health, baby."

"Hindi naman ako nakokonsensya. Ayoko sa lahat 'yung inaaway ka. Mataas ang pride ko kaya ayos lang sa akin," she replied.

Trigger grabbed her cheeks before kissing her lips aggressively. Mabilis namang kumapit si Miracle sa balikat ng asawa para sagutin ang mga halik nito.

Their sweet moment was interrupted when they heard the noise from the intercom.

Inalalayan siya ng lalaki pababa sa kandungan nito bago lumapit sa pintuan.

Miracle just stood behind her husband to check who's outside their room.

"Third? What the fuck are you doing here, asshole?"

Nanlaki ang mga mata ng babae nang marinig ang pangalan na binanggit ng asawa. Nakumpirma niya lang ang hinala nang tuluyan nang makapasok ang bisita sa loob.

It's Trigger's younger brother, Third Knights.

"Ganda ng bati mo, ah. Wala man lang welcome, tangina," galit na sabi ng lalaki habang hinuhubad ang suot na leather jacket.

Trigger rolled his eyes. "You're not fucking welcome here."

Third Knights just raised his middle finger before looking at her. Agad itong ngumiti sa kaniya. "Hello, beautiful. Buti natitiis mo si kuya?"

She chuckled mischievously. She met Third back then but they haven't got the chance to talk. Ngayon, kailangan niyang magpanggap na hindi niya ito kilala.

"Hi, I'm Miracle. Ahm, pasensya na kung hindi ko maalala, kapatid ka ba ni Trigger?" she asked.

Nakipagkamay sa kaniya ang lalaki bago tumango. "Third Knights. Yeah, I'm his younger brother."

"Bunso namin 'yan--"

"Shut the fuck up, I'm not the youngest!"

She laughed because of these two men infront her. Gusto niya na sanang kausapin ang asawa pero nagulat na lang siya nang hilahin siya ng kapatid nito papunta sa sofa.

"Is my brother doing well? He's not terrible right?"

Miracle shook her head. "He's a good husband."

Nabaling ang tingin ng babae sa kwintas ng kaharap. It's a woman's picture. Parang pamilyar sa kaniya ang mukha nito.

"Who's that beautiful girl?" tanong niya rito.

Third quickly caress his necklace before flashing a smile. "She's fucking beautiful, right? She's the love of my life, Silhouette."

Miracle gasped with that. She's right, nakita niya na nga ang mukha ng babae noong minsan itong ipakita sa kaniya ni Saellyn. But according to Saellyn, Silhouette haven't met Third.

"Oh, Saellyn once showed me her picture. Pero sabi niya, hindi pa raw kayo nagkikita ni Silhouette?"

He flashed a fake smile before nodding his head. A glint of sadness is visible in his eyes. "Yeah, she's still not aware of my existence. I was just waiting for the right time to introduce my self to her."

Napangiti si Miracle dahil doon. Ramdam na ramdam niya na mahal na mahal ni Third ang babaeng tinutukoy nito.

"Saellyn met her first, and here I am, a fucking coward. I want her so bad but I'm fucking afraid."

Marahan na tinapik ni Miracle ang balikat ng binata. "You'll find a way soon. I'm sure she'll fall inlove with you also. You're an amazing person, Third."
