Chapter 29-III

          "Madam, nagwala ka ba dito?"

"Binabastos niya ako at hindi niya alam ang lugar niya." My eyes blink when I notice a silhoute arrive. Inangat ko ang paningin ko mula sa bubog ng bote na kanina lang ay hawak ko. Until now there's still blood I can't just removed in my even with a handkerchief" That's what they get, they deserve it."

Gregory just ruffled his own hair."...Kung ganun uwi na tayo?

"Ang bilis mo nakadating, nag-overspeeding ka na naman ba?" I tiredly commented as he was looking at the wine stained wall. Well, I did notify him to pick me up before the party start. I don't want to be with Percival either afterall, but I'm sure he's home. " Pagkakuha mo ng kotse, may tao ba sa bahay?"

"Huh? Diba mag-isa ka lang naman sa bahay? Tara na."

"I forgot, he's won't show himself to you..."

"May guest na parang narinig kong nirereklamo ka."Isa-isa inalis ni Gregory ang butil ng bubog sa furcoat ko, habang ilang metro lang layo nila Mom and Dad. I did told them to give me space, but I don't like how they stare at me." Chismoso ako----pero hindi ko alam kung wine pa ba o dugo yung nasa mukha nun."

"Be quiet, Gregory."

"Paalam ka na sa parents mo, Madam."

Gregory offered me his hand to stand up, but I was looking hardly at them. I wanted to hear reprimands from my parents but I received none, they just give orders and instruction to my driver. Na i-diretso ako sa bahay at ihatid ako ng ligtas." Huwag mo na sila tingnan, huwag ka na makiusyoso. Let's just leave here, Gregory."

"Nag-aalala parents mo, pero bakit hindi ka na lang pinahatid?" Gregory finally asked, Bumalik ang kadaldalan niya sa gitna ng byahe. "Marami naman kayong utusan diba?"

"Ako na yung tumanggi, sabi ko may driver ako."

"Ay oo, pero hindi ko naman alam gusto mo ng getaway vehicle."

"Hindi ako ang may kasalanan nun, yung lalakeng yun ang nagsimula." I blurted out to Gregory and when we're about to cross at intersection an idea popped in my mind." Ayaw ko pa munang umuwi sa bahay, sa iba muna tayo."

"Diretso daw uwi sabi ng Daddy mo---Ay! Ikaw pala nagpapasweldo sakin. "

"Pumunta o tumigil muna tayo kung saan."

He smirked." "Saan ang kung saan?"

Kahit kalian hindi nagseseryoso ang lalakeng to." Kahit saan na alam mong pwe-------"

"Dun na lang sa foodpark na alam ko! Sabi mo kasi kahit saan----Maayos naman mga tinda dito. Dun na lang tayo pagpatanggal ng tama mo!"" Gregory cheerfully explain, speeding up again. Basta gala talaga game siya." Ngayon ako naman ang maglilibre sayo, ng sinuweldo mo sa akin

"Hindi naman tayo magtatagal dun." He frowned, and it was my turn to smirk. I scrolled on my phone for another playlist and was about to reach for the stereo." Maghahatinggabi na din."

"Ah! Sorry----yung radyo ba aabutin mo?"Bigla niyang tinabig ang kamay ko. He was frantic to act as if it didn't happen!" Wait! Masyadong pang matanda radyo pala para sayo!"

I blinked." Hindi ko naman bubuksan yung gun compartment."

May nakapatong na midnight blue jacket sa safe ng baril. He have his hands place over it." Baka lang hanggang ngayon mainit pa rin ulo mo, at balikan mo yung lalake kanina. Nagbibiro lang ako nung nandun tayo pero...Hindi na self-defense yun----mukang gusto mo talaga siyang patayin."
