I'm scared. I am really am. Hindi ko alam ang gagawin simula ng matangap ko ang tawag na iyon. Hindi ko alam kung sino nagbaba ng tawag pero alam ko ay naninigas na ang katawan ko sa takot noon at parang tila may bara na sa lalamunan ko kaya hindi na ako makausap.
Alex assured me that they would protect me and that I should not be afraid. I keep telling myself that nothing bad will happen to me because I am well-protected, but I still can't. At habang iniisip ko iyon ay pakiramdam ko kung hindi naman sa akin ay sa iba iyon mangyayari.
It's been three days since I got the call, and I've been scared and nervous around people for three days.Feeling ko nandyan lang sila at pag nalingat lang ako ay maaring makuha na nila ako.I don't know them, but I know they're Saxton's enemies. At alam ko na gusto nila akong gamitin para mapabagsak si Saxton and I can't let that happen. Hindi ako ang magiging kahinaan niya at ikababagsak niya.
"Can you fucking quit acting like a child?!!" Lennon's yell stunned me and jolted me out of my trance. When I looked at him, I saw his normal chilly manner, a frown on his brow, and his cigarrete dangling on his lips. I stared at the cigarette, then back at his stern expression.
"Don't you realize they're having a good time seeing you screw up?"
Napalabi ako at napayuko. I realize I'm pitiful, but I'm afraid and don't know what to do about it. Pilit ko naman itinatago ang pagkatakot ko pero hindi ko din maiwasan. Sa tatlong araw na yon ay pinipilit ko ang sarili na kumausap at makihalubilo paren kahit takot ako. At sa tuwing bigla nalang may hahawak sa akin ay bigla nalang din bumibilis ang tibok ng puso ko kahit na sila Alex lang naman iyon.
Bantay sarado nila ako. Tinotoo nila ang pagbabantay sa akin. Kasama ko sila sa room at sa paglabas ng room. Kahit pagpunta ko ng powder room ay kasama ko sila pero hanngan labas lang sila but they will check it first to see anything suspicious. Sa pagkain din sa cafeteria ay kasama ko sila kasabay nila Callan. They added more chairs in Saxton's table so I eat and sat on comfy chair of Saxton with all of them. Basta lahat ay kasama ko sila nahihiwalay lang sila sa akin tuwing nasa bahay na ako pero maiiwan ang madaming guards nila.
"If you keep doing this, you'll be his downfall," Lennon stated bluntly. I snapped my head at him, my blood boiling with frustration. "No." I strongly said, but he just shrugged his shoulder and throw a bored look at me before moving back his gaze on the road.
"You are. Cos you're dumb and... weak," he chuckled, as tears welled up in my eyes, threatening to fall.
"I'm not!" I yelled back. He grinned and rolled his eyes at me. If you're wondering why I'm with him, it's because of an emergency involving Alex and Axel's business, which is why I'm stuck with this brute. And he's driving me to school today, and it's just morning, but he's already attacking me with his words.
"You're always telling me that, what's new? Because of your acts, another one is suffering; don't you know what he's doing right now in Italy? He's working nonstop and rushing his work to come back here immediately, but that won't be possible because his men are practically all here."
Kumunot ang noo ko at gulat na napatingin sa kanya. "At bakit ko naman naging kasalanan iyon. Kayo ang may fault don kase nirereport niyo lahat ng ginagawa ko. Hindi ko nga sinasabi sa kanya na natatakot ako kase alam ko ang gagawin niya at lalong mas magmamadali siya ng trabaho. I always tell him that I am fine here and he don't need to worry about me. I always tell him that I will just patiently wait here... kahit na miss na miss ko na siya!" My voice cracked as I wiped the tears that falls. "K-Kahit na takot na takot ako at gusto kong magsumbong sa kanya dahil sa tawag na iyon ay hindi ko magawa dahil sigurado na mag alala siya. Tapos... kayo sinabi niyo lang pala."
"Ayah..." he called but I raised my hand to stop him.
"I know I'm weak but I'm not stupid. I'm smart but scared. Pero ginagawa ko padin ang alam ko na makakabuti sa paraan na alam ko. I won't mind if you remove all of the guards and return it to Saxton. Do it," I mumbled to him. "I'm just a nobody, and Saxton is a significant person who needs more of your so-called protection, so please do me a favor, leave me alone, and I'll guard myself," I replied, opening the door to get out of the suffocating air with him.
