Nikka's face change.
The lines of her lips curved into a half smile as she met his eyes with same daring spirit.
" Secrets without locks, are not secrets at all," she said as she leaped in the air and gave him a surprise and lethal kick.
He sprawled on the floor. It's just a greeting though. She know she can't defeat him.
" It's nice meeting you too, Hyouka," he said.
" Paano mo nalaman na ako ang spy?" tanong ni Nikka.
" I placed a wiretap in Commandment's coat."
Disappointment is visible on her face.
" Alam na pala nila," mahinang wika nito.
Umupo si Sin sa sahig at dinukot ang cellphone sa bulsa.
He dialed his number.
" Sin," wika ni Commandment sa kabilang linya.
" Commandment," tugon ni Sin. " May nilagay akong wiretap sa coat mo. I and Zhyieke heard everything and I will take Hyouka to him now. You need to stop me, I'll wait until 4 PM."
He hang up without hearing his response.
It's 3 PM and they are looking at each other as they squat on the floor.
" You played us really well," - Sin.
" I'll take that as a compliment," tugon ni Nikka.
" Pa'no mo ginawa yun? Totoo na suplada ka pero hindi ko inakalang ikaw ang spy. You look so innocent. Why did you do it? Muntikan ka pang napatay ng Aconites. What the hell are you planning Hyouka?"
" I'm not in the mood to talk. Why did you call him anyway? Akala ko ba kumakampi ka na kay Zhyieke?"
He stared at her with squinted eyes.
" Sa tingin mo magagawa ko yun sa'yo?"
It hits her.
The more she looks at him, the more he gets handsome. The more he announce his feelings,the more he melts her heart.
" You can use as many name as you want but it won't change the fact that I used to love you. Maybe I love you still."
" Sin."
" I can't put you in danger to save my sister. Pareho ko kayong mahal. Naintindihan mo ba ako?"
Nikka nodded.
She wanted to act tough and be the Hyouka and the spy they expected. She want to turn into a tiger but Sin made her nod like a sheep.
" Sigurado akong hindi mo ginusto na mangyari 'to. Zero would understand. Commandment would understand ."
Nikka rolled her eyes.
" Hindi na importanti kung maiintindihan nila ako o hindi. My mission must be completed at yun ang mas importanti."
Sin shrugged.
Magsasalita sana si Sin nang biglang tumawag si Commandment. He answers the call instantly.
" Take her to Zhyieke," wika nito na dahilan para muntikan niyang masira ang hinahawakang cellphone. Buti na lang at naka off ang speaker ng phone nya. Nikka can't hear him.
" You can't take her back once she stepped in Zhyieke's lair," he said, trying to figure out what he's thinking.
" Alam ko. I just need to confirm something. Take her to him," he added.
