"Fucking shit!" I cursed out loud.
"Lili call down!" Mapag-alala na lumapit saakin si Abby.
"Calm down?! How can i fucking calm down?! It hasn't been a day, and yet they've already gotten one step ahead of us!" Galit kong sigaw.
"Lili, i'm angry too. Just calm down so we can sort this out" Nagmamakaawa itong tumingin sakin.
"How can i?!" Bulyaw ko pa. Hindi lang ako galit. Kinakabahan rin ako.
I received another text message from that unknown. Pinagbabantaan ang buhay ni Uzon— Alissa tangina nalilito ako!
"Lili I know that you're afraid something might happen to Uzon but you have to fucking calm down! Kailangan nating doblehin yung po-protekta sakan—"
"I'll do it" Putol ko sa kanya.
"What?"
"I'll do it. I'm going to protect her. I don't care even if it's a life or death situation for me as long as she's safe" I said determined.
Hindi ako mapapanatag hanggang hindi ako ang makakasama nya.
"Okay" Abby said and smiled.
"Can you ask Maxiana to come her right now?" Tanong ko sa kanya at tumango naman ito.
"Good" Ani ko.
Ilang minuto ang nakalipas at naka rating na dito si Maxiana.
"Ma'am!!!! Ano po bang urgent matter bakit pinapunta mo'ko rito?" Kumunot ang noo ko dahil sa asal ng babaita.
"Max wag kang umakto na parang bata" Suway naman ni Abby sa kanya.
"Eh kase naman, umaano kami—"
"I don't need to know that" Putol sa kanya ni Abby na ikina simangot naman nito.
"Anyways, i called you here because of her" Turo nito sakin.
"You'll be her bodyguard" She added.
"Huh? Isn't Miss Funtamuerte a skilled assassin slash the mafia leader?" Nagtatakang tanong ni Maxiana.
"Yes" Tipid na sagot ni Abby.
"Why does she need a bodyguard?" Tanong nito.
"Bodyguard is just a facade. You'll be her second in command. We have a major crisis going on and she personally asked me for help" Saad naman ni Abby.
"Hi, Ylliana Eugene Funtamuerte, pleased to meet you" Pakilala ko.
"Maxiana Cruze! Looking forward to working with you Ma'am!" Masayang inabot nya ang kamay nya. I shaked her hands with a small smile on my face.
"Now Lili, i know you're thinking why my best agent is bubby and cheerful, that's what i taught her. Don't show the real you unless it's necessary" Tumango naman ako.
"Okay—"
"Knock knock Ylliana!!" Naputol ako nuong may sumigaw at pumasok sa loob ng office ko.
It's Alissa.
"It's already 4 pm— who's that?" Naputol naman ang sasabihin nya at tinanong kung sino ang babaitang nakaupo sa harapan ko na naka ngiti.
"Hi!! I'm Maxiana!" Sagot naman nito.
Alissa plainly looked at her and looked back at me. She raised her eyebrow while i rolled my eyes.
"Abby you can go now. I'll call you later. Maxiana follow me and her" Saad ko.
Tumango si Abby at binigyan ako ng beso bago nag paalam na umalis.
"Bakit hindi mo sya pinaalis?" Taas kilay na tanong nya sakin.
