Misty Eyes (Book 2 of Eyes Trilogy)

Chapter 41

Chapter 41

"Get down!" sigaw ni Savannah sa akin.

Hindi ko na nagawang igalaw ang aking buong katawan habang nakatulala sa magandang mga mata ng lalaking pinakamamahal ko.

My eyes were full of questions, the answers were right there. Abot kamay ko na Tristan, why?

Saan na kumuha ng lakas si Tristan para barilin ang sarili niyang kaibigan? Now that memories are back, wala akong maalalang nagkaroon ng pagkakataong sineryoso ni Tristan ang galit at pagpatay dito.

Yes, he's always at his peak to kill Gray. Pero madalas ay puro salita lamang ito, he valued more their friendship kahit matagal na itong lumipas.

May sasabihin pa si Gray, he was about to answer my questions.

"Baby.."

I saw how his mouth opened.

"What the hell? Get down!" nawala ang paninitig ko nang bigla na lamang bumagsak ang katawan ko sa lupa.

Savannah pushed me on the ground to save me from the bullets coming from different directions.

Nabalot nang palitan ng putok ng baril ang buong tunnel.

"Savannah..si G-Gray.." halos hindi ko na magawang sulyapan ang katawan nito.

Everything was so fast, a few minutes ago we were chasing the syndicates, my memories came back, Dr. Vicente revealed his point of view, Gray's reason was about to be revealed, but.. what the hell really happened?

"There is no time to mourn right now Lina. There is no time to mourn." Habang inaalalayan ako ni Savannah na magtago sa likuran ng sasakyan ay patuloy ang pagtulo ng kanyang luha.

Hindi ko akalaing makikita ko siyang lumuha, simula nang makilala ko siya ni minsan ay hindi inisip na luluha ito sa harapan ko.

Nangangatal ang kamay nito habang nakikipagpalitan ng putok ng baril.

"Damn him, damn him." Paulit-ulit nitong sabi.

"I-I just saw Tristan..he just--"

Nakarating kami sa likuran ng sasakyan.

"It was not Theo! The bullet wasn't from him! There's a sniper! Napapalibutan tayo, this damn tunnel is a trap." Dumagundong ang tibok ng puso ko sa sinabi ni Savannah.

"It was not Theo, sa malayo pa lang ay nakikita ko nang nakatutok sa kanya si Theo but that shot wasn't from him. Theo tried to shoot Gray's leg for him to be out of balance and the sniper might miss his shot, pero hindi inabot. Nauna ang sniper kay Gray."

"H-How did you--" papaano niya nalaman na may sniper na palang nakaaabang sa amin?

"This isn't the right time to explain everything but having your confusion state? I need to answer you. Dahil mamamatay ka nang wala sa oras dahil sa kalituhan mo."

Bago siya sumagot sa akin ay muli siyang nagpaulan ng putok ng baril sa kalaban.

"I was an ex-agent! I know how this damn world circulates. Kababa pa lamang ng doctor at ni Gray sa sasakyan, I saw laser on Gray's head. Pero agad rin itong nawala, right at that moment I knew that there's a sniper. Hindi ako nagpahalata dahil alam kong ako ang unang mapapatay. But I felt relieved when I saw Cap Theo and his group from different directions."

Gumalaw muli si Savannah at nakipagbarilan.

"But there was a problem, puro sniper ang nasa loob ng tunnel. Walang ideya ang grupo ni Theo kung nasaan sila dahil kadarating lamang ng mga ito. Another thing was their location from us, they were too near, kumpara sa mga sniper na malalayo. As they aimed for Gray's head, Tristan and his group have nowhere to locate the target. That's why Cap Theo used the timing, look at Gray's body. May daplis ng bala ang hita niya, sinadya ito ni Theo but the sniper isn't just one. Nagmintis ang isa ngunit may natitira pang iba."
