Mission: Protect Him At All Cost

chapter onse (11)

"Hey, was the line long? natagalan ka ata ah?" Bungad nito when I returned to my seat.

"Yes sir, the line was long all the toilets were occupied po e." Pagsisinungaling ko ulit. I re-checked the guy once again, he's nowhere to be found.

From what I saw earlier, it could mean something right? maybe he's here to spy on Sandro? they have something planned? susundan kaya nila siya? I don't know. One thing is for sure, I can't leave him right now. Masyadong delikado.

"Are you going back to your office sir?" I asked, gusto ko siyang samahan.

"Yeah, I still have pending works to do." He replied, and nodded.

"Sasamahan na po kita." I offered, pero kahit naman tumanggi ito, e pagpipilitan ko parin. Para naman sa kaniya to.

"What? no no okay lang, you can start tomorrow-" See? predictable diba?

"I insist sir, let's go?" He didn't said anything instead he called a waiter and asked for the bill.

Nang matapos niya itong bayaran, nauna akong tumayo sa kaniya at nagsimulang maglakad. I opened the door for him, umalis kasi saglit yung guard dito kanina. Huminto ito saglit at napatingin sa akin.

"Okay? I'm supposed to do that, oh well." He mumbled but enough for me to hear it. I chuckled slightly.

Manang-mana sa tatay nila, earlier Mr. Bongbong and Atty. Liza escorted me outside then Mr. Bongbong opened the car door for me, lumabas pa ito sa gate at naghintay pa ito hanggang sa makaalis na nga kami.

Nakasakay na kami sa kotse niya, he started the engine and went our way to the city hall.

We were in the middle of the driving pero ni isa sa samin walang nagsalita. He played the radio instead, yun lang ang nag-iingay dito sa loob.

But I wasn't minding to that, iniisip ko yung trabaho ko. Para na akong tanga pabalik-balik na tumingin sa side mirror, just to see if may nakasunod ba samin.

"Emmalyn is there something wrong? ba't lingon ka ng lingon?" Sabi pa nito.

Sasabihin ko ba sa kaniya? ayoko ko siyang matakot, pero dapat aware rin siya diba? dapat alam rin niya kung anong nangyayari sa paligid niya.

"Hello? earth to Emma?" He snapped his fingers in front of me, tumingin ako sa kaniya and he let out a small laugh, slightly raising his brow waiting for my answer.

"I saw a guy from the restaurant kanina, he was sitting behind you." Pagsisimula ko, he didn't say anything and let me continue.

"At first, I thought normal costumer lang yun but napansin ko he kept on glancing at our direction. When I went to the bathroom, I was washing my hands and then pabalik na sana ako when he accidentaly bumped into me. I noticed na there's an arrow cross form tattoo in his index finger. He noticed na I was looking at his tattoo and he immediately left. Parang natataranta pa." I said.

"Well maybe, regular customer lang talaga yun?" He asked.

"I felt like there was something wrong, instinct ko na yun. I don't doubt myself whenever my body and my mind tells me something, also we were trained for this." I explained, he chuckled while his eyes were still looking at the road.

"Right right, I should've not question you. You know your work better, sorry." Grabe ang seryoso naman nito. Umiling ako at napatawa nalang.

We stayed quiet hanggang sa nakarating na nga kami sa city hall. Bumaba kami and sumunod lang ako sa kaniya.

"So Emma, this is where I work. Yung mga tao doon-" He said pointing to those 5 persons na nag-uusap.

"They worked for me and help in any way that they can." Sabi nito at tumango ako,nilibot ko ang tingin ko sa paligid.
