Chapter 42
Hindi ko alam paano ako nakarating ng mabilis sa J Prime. Ni hindi ko alam kung paano ako naka abot ng buhay, baka ilang speed limit na ang naviolate ko kanina.
Natataranta akong dumiretso sa opisina ni Mr. Tonjuarez, men in black and some were armored welcomed me. Everyone drifted their eyes on me the moment I entered the room.
The gaze and intimidating looking men should terrify me, but all I can feel right now is nervousness. Ang katotohanang tinawagan pa ako ni Mr. Tonjuarez, means this is quite serious.
"Inah," he called out when our eyes met, I stopped with my tracks inches away from him.
"Sir, what happened po?" I asked with a hint of concern.
He stared on the laptop screen faced to our direction. "We've been trying to reach him since earlier, pagkatapos ng meeting niya bago ang flight niya ay untraceable na siya."
Naguguluhan akong tumingin sa laptop, some techy guy was on it. Trying to run the I.P. address or whatever. My heart suddenly raced.
"Bakit po biglaan ang uwi niya? Hindi ba dapat ay next week pa?"
Bumaling ito sa akin. "The progress there was smooth and fast. I don't know how Wyatt did that, but the project finished earlier than expected." sagot nito.
Bumuntong hininga ako at kinagat ang ibabang labi, hindi na talaga ako mapakali.
"Did he message you or something?" pukaw pa nito.
Mabilis ako na umiling, ngayon ko lang natanto na wala nga akong nakuhang text o tawag sa kanya ngayong araw. Hindi iyon nakatulong sa akin, tuluyan na akong ginapangan ng takot.
Paano kung may nangyari bago siya nakasakay ng eroplano? O sa flight nila? Imposibleng hindi niya ako itetext ng buong araw. Tumatawag nga iyon kahit nasa meeting!
"How long until we can track his location?" tanong ko at lumapit sa lalaking nasa laptop.
"As of the moment, no trace. Mahirap hanapin dahil paiba-iba siya ng lugar, mas mahirap kung nasa ere na ito. Wala talaga tayong makukuha. But we're on stand by, so that when he used his phone, we can know his location automatically." malinaw na paliwanag nito. Tumango-tango ako at bumalik na sa pwesto.
We lasted for at least forty minutes, no progress. Pabalik-balik ang lakad ko, nagwawala na ang puso sa dibdib ko ngunit pinipilit kong kumalma.
It's already ten! Wala pa rin kaming nakukuhang impormasyon kung ayos lang ba si Wyatt! Buong araw na siyang hindi macontact! Paano ako kakalma nito?
"Inah, calm down hija." tawag sa akin ni Mr. Tonjuarez, he was leaning on the edge of the table with arms crossed on his chest.
He also looks restless but still collected. I just can't be like that. He is too good to show his flaws, I am not like that. Not at this moment!
"I-I am trying, Sir..." I tried to normalize my voice. I gave him a small smile.
"He's gonna be fine." he tried to assure me.
"I know po," I answered weakly.
Kasi hindi pwedeng hindi siya ayos. Hindi pa ako nakakabawi sa kanya. Hindi pa kami nakakapag usap! Ni hindi ko pa nasabi sa kanya na mahal ko rin siya!
If something happens to him, I will not forgive myself. For not telling him and making him feel the love he deserves. I can't afford to lose him now, not in this lifetime. Akala ko dati kaya ko, na kaya ko na.
But those years, I felt lost. I feel empty. I know I am not happy. One of the most genuine moments in my life, was when I was with him. I can't imagine going on in this life without him again.
