FINN

"You know... who it is?"

Kairo nodded.

Talaga bang kilala niya kung sino ito? At that time, June used her Invisibility before they could get closer. Kaya nga ako ang nasuspektahan dahil kaming dalawa lang ni Depore ang naiwan doon. And who would people point to if not me?

"Alam mong si June?" I asked to confirm.

"Yup. And it's not just June. There's someone else playing the strings."

Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya. Siguradong tinutukoy niya ang third enemy daw. That's also the time when June told me about the person who ordered her.

Pero ano ba ang balak niya at ginagawa niya 'to sa'kin? Wala na akong kilalang galit sa'kin maliban kay June. Nagsimula naman ang galit ni Marcella noong nasa laro na kami. There are a couple of players who supported them, but I doubt the two would follow their instructions. Kung gano'n, matalino at maaasahan ang taong 'yon.

Or they must possess some crucial secrets in the game.

"Anong ibig mong sabihin?"

"We were on the middle of a treasure hunt, kitten. Ngunit paanong nalaman agad kung nasaan ka, si Ate na naghahanap ng sirang seashells, at kami na nasa front beach." sagot niya. "Don't you think the situation was too perfect? You come out injured, bump into June, Depore comes to save you and we arrive at the right time."

I remembered Sapphire.

She was the one who found me after the Giant's Nest at siya rin ang nagsabing tatawagin niya sina Theo. Ngunit talaga naman sigurong coincidence lang ang nangyari. She was probably looking for treasure in that forest and saw me so she decided to help. Tapos siguro'y nakasalubong niya si Ate Depore at sinabi dito ang kalagayan ko. Knowing her endless concern, she would naturally run towards me.

But then... at that time, June was acting strangely when she noticed Sapphire. May sasabihin pa nga ata siya tungkol sa babae pero hindi niya ito tinuloy.

Is it really possible? Or is this just a cover-up for something more sinister?

Wala namang ikakagalit si Sapphire sa'kin at wala din naman akong nagawang mali sa kaniya.

Tiningnan ko ng diretso sa mata si Kairo at umiling. "Must be mistaken."

Sapphire won't do that. I don't believe that she's capable of doing that.

"Maybe." Kairo chuckled lightly. "Kitten, I'm still killing my mind to find it out too. And really, it hurts a lot. So... regarding that, can I ask you for a favor?"
