Trieja: Jake And Josh [Under Revision]

Chapter 48

There's nothing more important other than finding Jake's wife. For all he knows, Claire could be out there sleeping under a bridge, begging for food and could be harmed by strangers. Or much worse, someone could force his wife to sleep with them. And just thinking about that makes him frustrated.

Medyo gumaan ang pakiramdam ni Jake these past few days. The information they got from their men was helpful. Di na siya masyadong umiinom ng alak. Nako-kontrol na rin niya ang kanyang emosyon. At higit sa lahat, nakapagligo na siya after so many months.

Jake feels refreshed.

Medyo maayos na ang pakiramdam niya. But listening to his parents right now is giving him the stress he has been steering clear for the past days. Malakas na nagtatalo ang kanyang mga magulang sa Tito Edmond at Tita Nancy niya. Nalaman kasi nito sa kakambal niyang si Donovan na naglayas ang kanilang asawa.

Though, the message that was given to Donovan by his Tita Marilyn was only an apology. But his relatives gave it a deeper meaning.

At nakumpirma lang nila iyon nung halughugin nila ang buong siyudad at bayan para hanapin si Marilyn. And to their dismay, his aunt left her wedding rings. May naka-install kasing GPS tracker doon at kung sana ay dala-dala ito ni Marilyn ay madali lang siyang mahahanap.

If Claire hadn't taken off her rings and gave it to Tita Sasha, she would've been in my arms right now. Jake thought.

"My fault?! Kung hindi niyo pinabayaan si Marilyn na laging mag-isa sa mansyon ninyo ay hindi ito mangyayari!", sigaw ng kanyang ina.

"This is clearly your fault! It's funny that you don't even see it. Kung hinayaan mo lang na makausap ng asawa ko si Joaquin ay hindi sana siya aalis!", Nancy was being held by Edmond just so he could prevent the two women from harming each other.

Sa hitsura pa lang nilang dalawa ay siguradong nakahiga na sila sa lapag habang nagsasabunutan. Kung wala lang ang Papa Joaquin niya, malamang ay kanina pa sinugod ni Jennette ang kaharap.

"Ang bobo mo talaga kahit kailan! How can I let her speak to my husband when she tried to snatch him away from me?! Hindi ba pumasok sa isipan mo na ma trust issues ako kay Marilyn? 'Wag kang putak ng putak diyan kung 'di mo naman gumagana ng matino 'yang utak mo!"

"How dare you!"

"Bakit hindi mo na lang kasi aminin, ha? Na kasalanan niyo naman talaga na dalawa dahil palagi niyo siyang iniiwan sa bahay! You let her be with my husband the reason why this affair started! Kung sinasama niyo lang siya sa lakad ninyo ay siguradong hanggang ngayon ay naghihintay pa rin siya sa paguwi ninyo!"

Nancy squealed out of anger. Pulang-pula na ang mukha nito dahil sa tindi ng galit na nararamdaman.

"Ang kapal naman ng pagmumukha mo! Kung hindi mo iniiwan dito si Joaquin ay di magkakaroon ng kataksilan!"

Pilit na nagpumiglas si Jennette dahil halatang sinisisi nito si Joaquin sa nangyari.

"Marilyn initiated the fucking kiss! It wasn't my husband who kissed her, it's your wife! Baka gusto mong isampal ko pa ang CCTV footage nila diyan sa may swimming pool ng magkaroon naman ng sense ang utak mo!"

"Walanghiya ka talaga!"

"Joaquin loves me, you bitch! Joaquin loves me and my husband! Samantalang kayo, hindi sapat ang pagmamahal na ipinakita ni Marilyn dahil hindi siya nakuntento! Masyado siyang makati at uhaw sa atensyon! And you want to know why? Because you're a lousy lover!"

Below the belt na ang mga lumabas sa bibig ni Jennette. Edmond's jaw clenched hard but no one noticed, only Jake did. However, those words did not stop Nancy to retort back.
