Ngayong araw na ito ay idaraos ang isang auction sa isang port na pag aari ng mga Shièl. Ang mga Shièl ang isa sa may koneksiyon sa underground society pero hindi kabilang sa mga Mafia. Tagasuplay lang talaga sila. Lahat ng suplayer ng mga Mafia ay nakalagda sa isang kasunduan na bawal baliin ninuman. At yun ay ang batas na bawal silang idamay sa gulo ng mga Mafiosos.
Isang malaking yate ang pagdarausan ng okasyon. Nakasuot lahat ng magagarang damit ang mga dumalo. May mga kabilang sa nag ooksiyon, may mga kabilang sa Mafia at meron din namang matataas ng tao sa lipunan.
Alam ni Samantha na dadalo doon si Steven kaya kinuha niya ang pagkakataong iyon para makita man lang ito. But she needs to be disguised.
Nagsuot siya ng green na contact lenses para mapalitan ang kulay tsokolate niyang mga mata. She wore a dark lipstick and a dark, smoky eyeshadow to conceal her identity.
(Her makeup would look like the one on multimedia. ~Ctto.~)
Nagsuot din siya ng provocative na damit. The things that are not so like her. She let her hair cascade down her back but of course, she colored it with metallic grey and highlighted it with red. She wore her six inched stiletto which has poisoned heels and a clutch bag where she put her mini gun in disguise of a phone.
Her earrings were secret microphones and earpiece. While her watch is a secret computer. Beforehand, she hacked the whole venue so she know where is where when she gets there.
Accompanied by her cousins Van and Ken, they entered the yacht and with cautious eyes examined the whole area. She went to the bar and of course, she knows that she stole the attention of everyone.
She took a sip of the light gin she ordered looking around with an eagle eye. Her vision focused on the entrance and sooner she saw her main target, Steven. Placing her unfinished alcohol on the counter top, she walked towards his direction.
He seated on the 20th seat on the auction room but she sat on the back which is number 70th seat. On the display were high caliber machine guns and some precious jewels. But she doesn't want jeweleries. One thing caught her attention and that is an old looking amulet and of course the gun with the intricate design.
The bidding started from the ruby and diamond made ring which was bought by the person seated on the 10th seat. The next one was a gun but she doesn't like that. On and on, the auction went. And now is the time for the bidding for the amulet.
"The bidding starts at 20,000 dollars." Anunsiyo ng nasa harapan.
"30,000" taas ng nasa ika tatlumpung upuan.
"50,000" sabi naman nung isa pa mula sa seat number 45
"100,000"
"250,000" a bald man from the seat number 60 rose.
"250,000 dollars. Anyone higher?"
"400,000 dollars." Sagot ni Steven.
"Anyone who will beat the bid from number 20?" Tanong nung nag aannounce sa harap. Alam niya na si Steven ang number 20 pero may kung ano sa kanya na nagtutulak na kailangan niya ang amulet na yun.
She raised her number before the bid closed.
"600,000 dollars." Sabi ni Samantha.
"800,000 dollars." Sagot naman ni Steven.
"1 million."
"1.5 million."
"10 million." Sabi ulit ni Samantha na kinatahimik ng buong hall. Nakarinig pa siya na napagasp ang iba.
"Ok 10 million dollars. Going once, going twice. Sold to the lady on the 70th seat.
Sumunod na ibinead ang isang antique jewelry na nakuha na ni Steven pero wala naman siyang pake doon. She wants that pretty gun in her possession.
"This is the legendary XFS multi-ammo fire arm. What makes it unique is that, this is the only piece in the whole world. Made and developed by the famous scientist of the century, Maxine Ellie Krikova. Aside from that, it can hold any ammunition size by just adjusting it's holder. The bid starts from 800,000 dollars!"
"1 million!"
"5 million!"
"7 million."
"7.5"
"10 million!"
"13.5"
"20." Sagot ni Steven. 'I'm so sorry pero hindi ako papayag na hindi mapasakin ang baril na yan.' sabi ni Samantha sa isip niya. She raised her number again.
"I want that piece for me. 30 million."
"60."
"80."
"80.5" 'Ano ba naman, wag mo akong agawan ngayon. Kahit mahal kita gusto ko talaga ang baril na to.' sabi niya ulit sa utak niya.
"1" She said again.
"Uhmm madame, the gun would be sold to number 20. He already bid for 80,500,000 dollars."
"I know." Kalmante niyyang sagot.
"And you go back to one..." Pinutol niya ang sasabihin pa ng announcer.
"One. One billion for that." Nakita niya pang nanginig ang announcer at kumuyom ang kamao ni Steven. Well, sorry nalang dahil mas marami siyang pera ngayon.
She went to the upper floor to look at the people enjoying themselves on the lower deck. Wala namang problema sa mga pinamili niya dahil nandoon naman ang mga pinsan niya na tagadala ng mga yun.
Napansin niya ang isang mabigat na presensiya sa likuran niya. She let her eyes do the work of knowing who's behind her back. Oh! It's him. She bet hindi parin ito makamove on sa naganap na bidding kanina. His stares made her shiver.
She needs to talk to him this once. She needs to end everything they have now before they get hurt more. Hinanda niya ang sarili niya saka inipon ang lakas niya.
She placed her glass on the table and walked towards his direction. Eksaktong nakatalikod ito dahil may kung anong kinukuha ng bigla nalamang niyang hablutin. Sa may kwelyo sa likuran niya siya hinawakan para hindi na makapanlaban. Catching him off guard will be better dahil mapapadali ang gawain. The move will be unnoticeable.
Walang nagawa si Steven kundi ang magpatianod nalang. They went to the last door. The last room of this cabin saka niya ito hinigit ulit papasok. Mas mabuting walang makakita sa kanila para iwas issue, iwas pahamak.
Isinarado at nilock ni Samantha ang pintuan. Naramdaman niya na bumunot si Steven ng baril at itinutok iyon sa kanya. As if masisindak siya sa pabaril baril nito.
She abruptly faced him and dismantled his gun making him defenseless. But not totally.
"You don't point your gun to me. I can disarm you in a blink, Steven." Bulong niya rito.
