Aia's P.O.V.

I went straight to the org. room after Luna left. It's the safest place for me to do what I've promised to her. Hiningi ko 'yong susi kay Ithan at pagkatapos ay iniwan silang dalawa ni love sa booth namin.

Pagpasok ko rito, sinarado ko agad lahat ng venetian blinds at ni-locked 'yong pinto bago ako pumunta sa mesa.

Tok tok tok

Pero natigilan ako sa paglalakad ng marinig 'yong sunod-sunod na katok na 'yon. Damn! I made sure no one follows me here but who is this now?

Linigpit ko lahat ng gamit ko bago buksan 'yong pinto.

Nanlaki 'yong mata ko dahil sa gulat. "Love?"

"Anong ginagawa mo rito?" He asked as he enter the room and closed the door.

"I should be the one asking that. Why are you here?" I asked him back. "I left you sa escape room. Sinundan mo ba ako?"

"I know you're up to something. Tell me, baka makatulong ako."

I let out a loud sigh. I think there's nothing I can hide from him.

"Yes. But I can't tell you the whole details of it. And don't worry, kaya ko naman gawin 'to mag-isa," I said with an assuring smile.

We used to do this kind of 'thing' together before, and believe me, mas magaling siya sa 'kin! Mas madami siyang alam at mas marami siyang kayang gawin. But let me be clear, we're not cyberpunks, okay?

Napabuntong hininga siya. "Wala na ba talaga akong puwedeng maitulong?"

"Meron but I'm not sure if it's okay for you." Nanatili lang siyang nakatingin sa 'kin so I continue. "Puwede bang ikaw na lang ang magbantay sa labas love? Just make sure that no one enters here."

"Okay," mabilis na sagot niya and gave me a quick kiss on my left cheek. "Mag-iingat ka." He reminded. Pagkatapos ay lumabas na rin siya kaya linock ko na agad 'yong pinto at pumunta sa mesa at sinet up 'yong mga gamit ko.

Magkahalong kaba at excitement ang nararamdaman ko pagbukas ko ng laptop. The first thing I did was to search online on how to do the LTO plate check. And here's what I've found, puwede palang itext ang LTO using the plate number and they will verify if the car is registered and if it's alarmed in the LTO as carnapped. So, I tried it using my phone, the one that I don't usually use.

After a few minutes, nagreply din ito. Nagmatch lahat ng sinabi ni Luna, starting from manufacturer which is Lamborghini, 'yong model which is Aventador down to the color which is army green. It also states that the car is registered and has no LTO apprehension.

I read it again, 'no LTO apprehension', really? I leaned back on the chair and crossed my arms. Does that rascal still have a good record after what he/she did? Huh! Tingnan natin kung mapapanatili mo pa 'yang magandang record mo 'pag nalaman na namin kung sino ka.

I took a deep breath before doing the dangerous part: tracking down the owner of that damn Lamborghini Aventador.

Kahit na anong ulit ko sa ginagawa ko, iisang pangalan lang ang laging lumalabas.

Rainer Devilla

Seriously? Si Rain? Pero... It can't be him!

Hindi na ako mapakali rito sa loob dahil sa nalaman ko. Kaya nagmadali na ako at linigpit lahat ng gamit para hanapin si Rain.

"Tapos ka na?" Halos tumalon ang puso ko sa gulat ng makita si Syd. Oo nga pala, pinabantay ko siya dito.
