GUSTO KO PA SANANG MATULOG ng kaunti,ngunit hindi ko magawa dahil sa pagkalakas-lakas ng tunog ng alarm. Sinabayan pa ng, "Goodmorning Beauties! Rise and shine! It's Monday! Chop! Chop!" ni Rose.
I've been in this place for two weeks already, yet parang kahapon lang nasa bahay pa ako. Nanunuod ng TV, kumakain ng popcorn at nakakatulog pa ng mahimbing!
Anak ng aroz caldo! Gusto ko pang matulog!
Nakarinig ako ng katok saking pintuan, "Victoriaaa! I have something to show you!" na kung hindi ako nagkakamali ay si Tricia, isa sa kaibigan ko raw.
"Open this fvcking door, Vic! Hurry up!"
"Heto na!"
Masama na nga gising ko dinagdagan mo pa. Well, there's nothing new except that I can see her smiling with a big blue box in her arms.
"Anong meron?" tanong ko agad.
"Let me in." pabulong niyang saad.
I shut the door on my back, facing her, and gaved her a what-the-f-is-up-with-you look.
Opening the box, she said, "I saw this in the torture room, Vic, kaya you should keep this a secret." adding a wink in her statement.
"A gun? That's it?"
I have seen a lot of guns in my life at hindi na bago sakin ang makita ang isang 45 Calibre na hawak ni Tricia.
"This isn't just a gun,Vic."
Tinutok niya sa bintana ang baril at pinaputok ito. It created a whole in the window.
"What the--"
"I know." she giggled.
"Ba't hindi nawasak ang bintana? It's made of glass for fvck's sake!"
"Hahaha goodness,Victoria. You're so cute. This is a 777 Blue Fin Calibre, of course hindi mababasag ang bintana. It's agile."
"Blue what?"
"It's yours now." she said, not answering my question.
"Your target won't even notice that you have hit them. You're welcome."
This woman is crazy.
"Why would i have a gun?" I asked. Yeah, I did.
Then she turned her face on me, saying "Every girls in this house have a gun, ikaw lang yung wala. McKinzey" I thought I was imagining things, did I just saw her smile?
"Tada!" Sabi niya ng sirhan ang pinto.
Fuck. That girl knows my name. No, this cant be! I need to see Rosette. Like, ngayon na. Damn! Nilalamig yung kamay ko! Hindi ko alam yung gagawin.
Her smile. Theres something in it. Alam kong may alam pa siya bukod sa pangalan ko. I need to see Rosette.
I rushe my way upstairs, kung saan ang kwarto niya. I knocked three times. Yet walang sumagit. I knocked again at bumukas ito.
"Darling, I told you to knock four times! Damn."
"Sorry po. I have something to tell you." I pushed myseld inside with all the fear in my spine.
To be continued...
