Ako na ang nag-aya na mag maneho dahil mukhang nang-hihina pa si Fort.

Labag man sa loob ko na iwan yung matandang lalaki pero kailangan eh. Para magamot ng maayos ang mga sugat namin ni Fort.

I was driving for half an hour already at nasa may mahabang tulay na kami nang mapag-desisyunan kong pandarin ang radio ng truck. Buti naman at wala na kami sa kagubatan.

"We got out Fort." I weakly stated as I glanced at him na nakatingin din pala sa akin. He was smiling. "And then, we'll rest peacefully after this. Eleven cutie." I joked with the Eleven cutie part saka mahinang tumawa. But when I looked at Fort, his smile faded.

"You almost won the game, silly girl." Naguluhan ako sa mga binitawan niyang salita.

But things went out of hand when a frequency was caught by the radio. It was the Starnews channel that's currently on air at nanghina ako sa mga narinig ko mula rito.

"We have learned that the one responsible for the Eleven Incident that killed quite a number of people is none other than the big boss of an organization inside the Dark Web Society. He hid his' name and used the initials FRTNTLYSNDR" Long pause. "Fortunato Lysander. Eldest of the Lysander family."

My heart stopped beating. My lungs almost gave up as my knees trembled.

I slowly glanced at Fort and was taken aback for he was already looking back at me.

"How cute." He commented as he grinned. "Let's go?" He then smiled at me.

And then I remembered. The small bottle. And now, I can smell the scent of Cinnamon from him! Thus the food on the dining table— it was for him!

He was being treated nicely, or should I say he is making Chris treat him nicely!

"P-pano mo nagawa toh saakin?"

"I make sure that the client get their peaceful ending."

"N-nagkagusto ka ba saakin?" Deretsuhan kong tanong. I knew then, he was literally holding my life.

"Wag kang mag-alala, ako mismo ang magbibigay ng endgame mo." He spoke, evading my question.

This guy... It was him.

"Nope." I heaved a sigh as I gathered all my strength on the steering wheel. "I'll give us OUR endgame." Di ako nagdalawang isip na paikutin ang manibela patungo sa bangin.

"We couldv'e been shopping together. Watch movies in the cinema. Cuddle on the sofa..." I kept on muttering as I started to tear up while watching how the truck we are in- falls towards the stone formations nearby the river which is directly below the bridge. 

Dies from murder?

NO. CAN NOT BE.

Dies with the man I like?

WEIRD. BUT I PREFER THAT ENDGAME.
