[Ran'z POV]

"Hi there- why are you alone in this place? Feeling Lonely?" Hindi ako lumingon. I know that voice. Its Bettany for sure. I was standing in the middle of this garden of where my wedding was held. My hands resting inside my pocket as my eyes focus on the place where the priest use to stand when Vivian and I got married.

I recall the time when 'that girl' - Vivian- walk beautifully in white dress while Carl held her and march  towards me.

I recall the time when 'that girl'  thought I was Randy and she was surprised when she heard the priest mentioned my name, she wants to run away ---but she came back after seeing her little sister with guns pointed on its side.

That was not the kind of marriage any girl would wish to have but that's what happened to her DAHIL sa paghihiganti na ito. What am I doing? Subra na ba ang ginagawa kong paghihiganti? 'No Ranz, kulang pa nga ang ginagawa mo- they deserves the worst'

"What do you need Bettany?" I ask in a serious tone. I don't want anyone going in this place except me. Its Bettany- palampasin ko muna for first offense.

"Men from main quarter just arrived, I told them they will meet you soon-" Ipinaalam niya sa akin. 

"I don't want to meet with them-" Matabang na sagot ko.

"But how will they know their master if they don't see you-" Pagpipilit ni Bettany. 

"That's their problem- not mine." I raised my eye brow.

"You have to-" Paalala ni Bettany. I am the master of this mansion. I can do whatever I wish and what pleased me. Walang maaaring magmanda sa akin.

Lumingon ako dahil nasa entrance ng Garden lamang si Bettany nakatayo. I decided  to look at her face. I stare at her as if I was examining every part of it. I walk closer para makita ko siya ng mabuti.

Ngayon ko na lamang natitigan ng ganito si Bettany. She changes. Medyo mature na rin ang mukha niya- maybe because she's busy in her family business lately lalo na at siya na ang nagpapalakad ng lahat ng bagay na pinamumunuan ng mga Sandoval. I will not mention anything about it but its really a tough job especially for a woman like her.

Make up makes her more mature. The shade of lipstick she choose makes her more like an old woman. I hate it when grls put too much make up on. It turns me off- but I am not mad at them. I just don't like it. Why can't some woman embrace their natural feature -that is what most of us men wants. We want a woman is naturally beautiful and loves to embrace their flows. Their imperfections makes them unique and real.  I don't want to complain anymore- everyone has their own definition of beauty- I couldn't disagree more.

Bettany was my friend since first year college and I pity her dahil wala siyang kaibigan mula pa pagkabata. Its for her protection. Somehow I understand her world because we are a branch of the same tree- we are both ELITE. 

Carl is my best friend simula pagkabata- we grow up together- closer than my twin brother. My brother is a serious man na pressured dahil siya ang first born at nakatakdang maging tagapagmana ng lahat in Hemenez Family.  He's been exposed to a lot of things at early age. Bata pa lamang ay sinasanay na siya. I was left alone as a second option kung sakaling kinakailangan na ako ang papalit sa kanya. I hate this rich men games. I hate how monopoly happened just because of the higher ranks and personnel like my heartless father na kayang kontrolin ang ibang aspeto sa lipunan especially in products and other things na mas malalim pa doon.

Will Bettany tell me to stop this nonsense at huwag nang ipagpatuloy ang lahat? 

I walk more steps closer to her habang nasa bulsa pa rin ng leather coat ko ang aking mga kamay. I wore black leather globs, yes I look fierce.

I lean closer to Bettany to see her face closely. She is an independent woman at maaasahan. 
Inalis ko ang kaliwang kamay ko sa bulsa ng leather coat. I touch her chin using my thumb. Napansin kong nag-blush ang pisngi niya. Maybe its natural dahil malamig naman talaga dito sa garden.

"You aren't getting Younger now Bettany, you need a man- in your life." Sabi ko habang hawak ko ang chin niya. 

"I-I have someone in my heart-" Sagot niya ng hindi tumitingin sa akin. 

I slightly push her chin para muli siyang makatingin sa akin. "Who- is he?" I ask dahil gusto ko lang naman maging masaya na ang kaibigan ko. I was cruel to her too. Hindi ko na siya binabati at kinakausap ng tulad sa dating ako. This is the first time I show concern to her. Lahat kasi kami ay busy sa mga detalye ng paghihiganti kaya wala akong panahon para kamustahin ang kalagayan niya. This is the perfect time to talk to her like how we use to talk back then ng mga panahong wala pang gulo.

"I want to meet him-" Sabi ko as I look straight in her  brown eyes. Her eyebrow are long and thick. Maybe its not aesthetic- I mean, not natural pero I understand naman that woman nowadays enhance themselves. Nangalat na ang mga plastic surgery at kung ano-anu pa. I don't judge them- sila naman ang gumagastos sa sarili nila and its their right to do what they want. 

"He- he's busy- " Bettany is stuttering. Iniiwas niya ang tingin niya sa akin. Itinaas ko muli ang chin niya. I want to see if she's lying or not. I hate lairs. Pinaka ayoko talaga sa lahat ay ang SINUNGALIN. 

"Well then- he don't DESERVE you if he's saying that g*d damn REASON Bettany-" I said in a monotone voice. She's my friend and I want her to be happy - ayoko na matulad siya sa naging kapalaran ko. She deserves to be happy with a man that would cheerish and support her.

Bettany deserves a man na handang ilaan ang oras nito sa kanya. Not some stupid guy na sasabihin lamang na BUSY sya. Tsk. Siguradong nagloloko lamang iyon kung hindi kayang maglaan ng oras. A man in love can do everything para magkaroon ng oras sa taong mahal nito kahit gaano pa ito ka-busy. Who is that fucking man that is too brave enough to messed up with my friend?

"Who is he-?" Seryosong tanong ko kay Bettany. Nakatungo pa rin ako sa kanya tahil mas matanggkad ako kaya siya naman ang nakatingala sa akin habang naka-alalay ang hintuturo ko sa ilalalim ng kanyang panga. She keeps blushing as I talk to her. Its cold outside- that's the reason why.

"Shall I teach him a lesson?" Tanong ko ulet ng hindi pa siya sumasagot. Nakatingin lamang siya sa akin na para bang nagulat siya sa sinabi ko. 

"No-no- I mean- he doesn't know I want him-" She answered.

"Then tell him ~~ so he would know- if he rejects your Love- I'll be thinking about if I could FORGIVE him." Nanlaki ang mga mata niya sa sinabi ko. Pero seryoso ako at alam niya na I mean it if I say something like this. "If you want him dead- just tell me Bettany-" Inalis ko ang kamay ko sa kanyang chin and I fix her wavy korean bangs na halos naabot na ang kanyang pilik mata. Napansin siguro niyang nahalata ko ang pagkagulat sa kanyang mga mata. She compose herself at inayos ang itsura niya.

I suddenly turned into a protective friend which how I supposed to be. 

I held her neck and hugged her. 

"Its been a long time since I talk to you like this- I know your tired- but I promise I won't let you have the same fate that I had- You won't be having nightmares like mine-" I said habang nakasandal ang kanyang mukha sa kaliwa kong balikat. Naalala ko ang hapdi ng nakaraan kaya napapikit na lamang ako habang yakap ko siya. I don't want that same fate to happen to her. I will never let her suffer like how I suffered.

"- I don't want him dead- " Sagot ni Bettany. Minulat ko na ang mata ko nang magsalita siya. I snap the memory at ibinaling ko na lamang sa conversation namin ni Bettany ang atensyon ko.

"If he rejects you- find a man that is head over heels in love with you- someone who can give you his full attention- not a guy that reasons out too MUCH-" I said in a monotone voice but still - I know she felt I care for her. 

Hindi na talaga kami bumabata. We are at the age na vulnerable and yet pwedeng-pwede na mag settle down.

"Don't worry Ranz- I will let him know I love him - after this revenge-" She said at napakinggan ko pa na huminga ito ng malalim sa pagkakayakap ko sa kanya. "SOON" Sabi niya.

Inalis ko na ang pagkakayakap ko sa kanya. This is weird, bakit bumabait ako? Why is my old self going back ? This should not be happening. Is it because of Vivian? NO it shouldn't be. 

"Have you eaten yet?" Hawak ko ang siko niya. I ask in a kind tone. Alam ko na kararating lamang niya kanina from States at dumiretso agad ito dito sa Baguio when Carl called him. She had done so much. Its my bad na paghinalaan ko pa siya ng masama earlier. I was rude to her- but I will not ask for forgiveness. I have my own way of expressing myself. 

"No-but I'm okay-" Nahihiyang sagot ni Bettany. Come on- she don't need to be shy around me- we are friends. 

"Come- we're having lunch together, - I am expecting your assistant to be there-too." Sabi ko at hinawakan ko ang kamay niya para sumunod sa akin.
I stop walking.

"And oh! Don't trust her- " Babala ko at binitawan ko na siya nang makalabas na kami pareho sa garden. "Mauna ka na sa dinning room, may pupuntahan lang ako. Bring Vivian with you- and your assistant-" Utos ko sa kanya na para bang nagulat pa siya sa sinabi ko. Nagbago ang itsura niya ng sabihin kong isama niya si Vivian. Tsk. Girls mood is really like changing channels on TV. Mabilis. Napakabilis.

I fix my leather coat and clear my throat bago ko siya iniwan.
