Chapter 35.2
Aiden
A deafening silence filled my office as I stared at Azel. I just told him everything that happened between me and that b1tch who pretended to be my sister. I was leaning on my desk and took a glance of the file of folders I neglected for almost two months. Napabayaan ko ang trabaho ko dahil sa nangyari at mga ginawa sa'kin ng babaeng 'yon and the miscarriage?
Hindi pa ko sigurado sa bagay na 'yon kung totoo o hindi kaya gusto kong magimbestiga and if I found out that every single thing was a lie, I will hunt that b1tch down and God knows what I would out of anger.
Napalingon ako ng biglang tumayo si Azel sa pagkakaupo. "What the fck did you just say?" he shouted. His eyes wide and mouth agape from shock then turned into confusion followed by utter awareness. "You banged your...your... sister?" mahinang sabi niya na para bang ang daming tao sa buong opisina ko na kami lang ang naroroon.
Bymuntong hininga ako. "Sh1t!" naguguluhan niyang sabi at napahawak sa batok. "That's insanely...incest. Bakit mo ginawa yon? And now you're telling me that she had a miscarriage. A baby was created and died because of your..your..."
"Hindi ka ba nakikinig? Of all the things I told you, you only focused on that." Kinuha ko ang isang folder at binuksan. Tinignan ang isang memorandum na kailangan ng approval ko. Ilan na ba lahat ng naiwan ko?
Biglang nawala sa paningin ko ang binabasa ko nang hinablot ito ni Azel at inilapag sa lamesa. "And of all the things that's happening, you only decided to work now kung saan may mahalagang problemang dapat solusyonan?"
I narrowed my eyes at him and looked at my wristwatch. They should be here any moment.
"At ano ba talaga ang nangyari ng gabig 'yon?" aniya.
"I don't know, man. The last thing I remember is that I was lying on my bed. I was drunk that I couldn't even move. Wala talaga akong maalala after at paggising ko, nasa kwarto niya na ko." I also recalled how pitiful she looked like. She was crying and broken. Pero kapag iniisip ko na puro arte lang lahat ng mga 'yon, lalong lumalala ang galit na nararamdaman ko sa kanya. That wh0re will totally pay!
"Aiden, pare. Hindi pwedeng wala kang maalala. That's bullsh1t and pathetic excuse! Let's say na sobrang lasing ka na talaga pero hindi pwedeng wala kahit konti. You wouldn't remember all the details but you should remember bits like how the hell you got there, you walking, opening her door or even small piece of the sex that had happened. Walang maalala? Tss. That's temporary amnesia if you ask me."
"I told you! Wala na talaga!" I frustratedly said. Umalis ako sa pagkakasandal at umupo sa sofa. I buried my face on my palm and think everything through. Wala na talaga akong matandaan. Wala! Bwiset talaga yang babaeng yon. I could strangle her.
I heard Azel sighed audibly. "Let's sum up things." I lifted my gaze up to see him pacing back and forth across the room. "You found her, she got surgery na nagpabago ng mukha niya. NagpaDNA test naman at positive ang lumabas. You took her home, had unconscious sex with her which-as you said killed a child because you pushed her." Umayos ako ng upo at sumandal. "How are we going to prove that it's all a lie? The only thing you found was a small speaker and an old phone hidden inside her room that doesn't even works. And the most important thing is... Nasaan si Alonna?"
Yes. The most important question. Where's my sister? Kung maayos ba ang kalagayan niya o hindi. I felt a chest clenched habang iniisip nab aka nahihirapan siya. Na baka sinasaktan siya ng kung sino mang nilalang ang kasama niya.
