♠ Chapter Seventeen ♠

Ace:

Ace, target is about to open his car's door—in 3, 2, 1.

"Aray!" Nasagi talaga ang bandang tuhod ko when he opened his car's door, that was one of a hell timing. "A-Arayyy.. Nabali 'ata ang braso ko..!" Braso!? Damn Ace, pero ang tuhod ko talaga ang masakit. He went out his car with heavy steps and stared at me while laying on the street.

"S-Sir, nabangga niyo po ako ngayon lang talaga.. Ang sakit ng braso ko oh, hindi 'ata ako makatayo.. A-Araaayyy.." Sabi ko. Nilukot ko na ng husto ang mukha ko. Hindi ko pa masyadong maaninag ang mukha niya but I was hell sure how gorgeous this man was.

"Take off your cap, let me see your face." What? Hindi ko inaasahan ang linya niya. Did I just blown my cover?

Just do what he says, Ace. Wilson was on the line. Damn. This mission took me two damn years para lang subaybayan ang galaw ni Alessandro Dela Verde. But this guy, hindi siya madaling sundan. I rarely seen him dining out alone, with no guards tailing him.

His eyes were in fury. "And you seemed good in acting, right?" Damn, he knew. This guy was bloody smart!

"H-Ho?" Two years? I wouldn't let him blew my cover in just split of a time! Pinagpag ko ang tuhod ko tsaka inayos ang malaking tsinelas na suot ko.

"Do you want money, right?" I nodded.

"Yes po, sir!" I needed to penetrate within his perimeter. Gusto ko ng matapos ang mission na 'to and could have good damn vacation in Maldives, alone!

"Alright. Stand up and let's talk over there. Let's talk business while having dinner." Utos nito with his possessive tone. Arrogant for me. Nauna itong umalis matapos sabihin yun. Dali-dali ko siyang sinundan. He wanted to talk business with me!

"Ah, ako nga pala si Ace Montereal—" I said habang papasok kami ng restaurant.

"Hindi ko tinatanong ang pangalan mo, so shut up. I will be the one to put a name to you." Anong sabi niya? Jeez! Hah! Kung hindi lang ako nag-ka-cover ngayon—that arrogant tongue would cut in half!

"How old are you?" He ordered a lot of foods which I craved to eat these few months. Pero dahil nga sa nasa trabaho pa ako—I rarely sneaked to eat properly. And now, natatakam ako sa lahat ng pagkain ngayon pero kelangan kong umaktong parang gutom na pulubi.

"Twenty-one pa po ako," My mouth was so full of foods. Nasusuka ako kapag gan'tong pinipilit kong kumain ang sarili."tsaka single na single—super available." Sabi ko sabay inom ng tubig. Thank God, a relief!

"I don't have a lot of time, actually." Seryoso ang mukha niya. Hindi din siya marunong ngumiti. His face was like a live version of Vogue models—sa portfolio ko lang siya nakita. Well, sometimes sa mga kuhang videos ko rito—I had tons of him. Yeah, I studied and stakled him for two hell years.

"kailangan mo ng pera 'di ba? Let's talk business, shall we?" Umayos ako ng upo. This was interesting! Mukhang mapapadali na ang bakasyon ko sa Maldives nito.. My target was cooperating with me.

Then, he started talking. I delibarely annoyed him with my loquacious mouth. At prangka din niyang sinabing hindi niya gusto ang bibig ko.

"Money down?" He just offered me a job. Well, nagbigay na ng ultimatum ang may-ari ng maliit na apartment na inuupahan ko ngayon kasama si nanay Rosario. Delaying our fees were still part of the plan—excluded nanay Rosario. She'd been a good foster parent noong mamatay ang mga magulang ko. She didn't even knew me—kaya lang palaging nalalasing. I had seen no future of me seeing her drunk everyday—kaya nag-enroll ako at nag-excel ako. I passed acceleration exams kaya madali kong natapos ang pag-aaral. One professor noticed my skills and offered me a job—kapalit ng pribado kong buhay. After years, I went back here to supposedly visit nanay Rosario yet ended having this mission. Maliban kay Dela Verde, I had few targets around the city.

Na mas malaki pa sa bayad ni Alessandro ngayon sa sinasabi niyang trabaho ko—we were discussion about his down payment.

"I'll give it to you. But firstly, walang makakaalam nito—you and me. Kapag dumadaldal ka na siguradong malalaman ko, kapag may isang detalye tungkol dito na makakalusot sa bibig mo maliban sa mga mata't tenga ko—I'll kill you." Kill me? Napatingin ako ng diretso sa mga mata niya. He got this tantalizing eyes, that's for sure—but words like that won't tame the hell of me.

"E, ano ba 'tong trabaho ko?" Tanong ko. As if, I was naïve and nervous.

"I want a wife." The hell what!?

I pressed a button to give Wilson an emergency signal—was he even listening to our conversation!? Gusto niya ng asawa, for Pete's sake!

Then be his wife, Ace. The next line beeped. What!? Kung hindi ko lang superior si Wilson—minura ko na siya ngayon.

"pupunta tayo sa bayan ng Malinaw, dun tayo pansamantalang titira. We'll pretend a couple and we'll gonna get married there. Civil wedding. That's it—that's your role. To pretend that you're my wife." My roles was to pretend I'm his wife!?

Pinundot ko uli ang emergency button—I loathed this and Wilson should knew!

His plan is perfect, Ace. That fits to your mission.

"Tang'na naman, Wilson—"

"I'm your superior, watch your tongue." Hindi naman ito galit sa kabilang linya. Well, I was! At wala akong pakialam kung superior ko siya!

"Totoong kasal?! Do you want me to be happy of that?" Kakauwi ko lang sa bahay. Nanay Rosario was drunk when I got home at nakatulog na rin. It was safe for me to open an audio call with him.

I bet, muntikan ng mabasag ang eardrum niya sa emergency button ko kanina!

"That's part of his plan, Ace. Stay focus and do your job. I know, you don't believe in coincidence, pero siya na mismo ang lumapit sa'yo. Alam mo na ang gagawin mo,"

Urg! Sumakit ang ulo ko!

Alessandro:

"Hindi mo ba gusto ang niluto mo? Hindi ka 'ata kumakain," F**k. She noticed me and I was getting more cautious of her of what Ija just told me. Nilalaro ko lang ang kutsara sa kanang kamay ko with the steak while firmly holding the fork under this damn table.

She just killed Mr. Ong tonight and now acted professionaly innocent!

She's no ordinary woman.
