“Bakit siya nag pakita Kira, tell me, don't you dare lie.” Napatingin ako sa Kuya ko na ngayo'y nasa hamba ng pintuan ng silid ko, I just sighed. I can't lie to him, he knew every bits of me.
He is talking about, Arnold showing up.
“Sinabutahe ako nina Hugo,” amin ko at pagod na inilundag ang sarili sa sofa at pumikit. Nararamdaman ko naman ang mga hakbang ng kapatid ko, mariin iyon halatang nagmamadali.
“I'll shut him up,” sabi ni Kuya dahilan mapadilat ako at seryosong tumingin rito. Bumuntong hininga muna ako bago umiling. He can't go back there, may pinanhahawakan na ito ngayon. Habang noon ay wala kaya hindi dapat siya magpadalos-dalos ng desisyon.
“You can't,” sabi ko dahilan mangunot ang noo nito parang hindi gusto ang naging sagot ko. Wala akong pakialam, I respect him as my brother but he should think about Ate Yasmin and his child. Malapit na manganak ang girlfriend niya.
“Of course I can! You know me Kira, hindi lang ikaw ang may black card.” Anito, tumingin ako rito ng walang emosyon, he even should his card. I can't believe he still have that. Hindi nito ugali magtago ng bagay na walang silbi but thinking he would keep that, he wasn't thinking as I am. I'm keeping mine for long time, incase my mom enter trouble again.
“I know, pero Kuya may Yasmin kana. Don't risk your child and wife here. Mom is with Kyatton, I worry nothing.” Sabi ko, hindi nagpitinag sa lalim ng panitig nito animo'y hinuhukay ang kaluluwa ko. He isn't the first person to look at me like that.
Hindi ko mabilang.
“And you're suggesting that I should leave this fight to you? Are you nuts? Putangina naman Kira, alam kong hindi ka bobo, I've been checking you. You act dumb, even at school you act like lack learning student. But you still keep intact in mathematics. You can't fool me.” Hindi ako makapagsalita sa ibinulgar nito. I can't believe my own brother investigated me like he didn't knew me and like hid in the dark by me. I felt like dumb.
“Alam mo naman pala Kuya, you can let me.” I said like nothing mas lalong tumalim ang panitig nito animo'y ayaw na ayaw sa mga sagot ko. I just sighed and sit down properly.
“I'm serious, total ako naman ang unang pumasok sa Nysus, ako narin ang magsasara. Total wala namang mga silbi ang mga taong iniwan ko doon, Hugo break the rule, he give my information to wreck my peaceful life. I won't stand by and let him.” Nysus is that filthy organization that's not organized anymore. It's a assassination group, people kill for money and for people.
People who has black cards are the high respected rank in Nysus, black card isn't a normal card. It can obligate army if the owner wants to. It can even use as free financing card. The superiority of having the card is unexplainable. And Hugo wants me dead to get my card and my position, that the old leader left me. I left the organization for the reason I want to live the life comfortable and quiet, I want new start in a new environment.
I made deal with them, I'll stop showing and they can do whatever the hell they want, but never abide my boundaries, which is the people I'm close with, the things I have.
And Hugo, the old right hand man of the old boss, abide the rule I set. He broke the rule, he gave my information to Arnold. I don't believe the Clarissa give the information. She would never do that if she's threatened or blackmailed. Thinking it's Hugo, then I won't hesitate to think twice. He's ruthless, selfish and brutal.
I don't do killing, I do beating but never killing. I check wide range perimeter, hack, make viruses. I'm that type of personel. I have the black card just because I deserve it, the owner trained me like a horse, in exchange of money just to treat our mother whose mentally unstable that time.
Being exposed at young age wasn't a good memory. I hate it so much that I want to vomit my internal organs. I hate it to my guts.
“Bata hindi ka pwedi rito.” Hindi naman ako natinag dahil sa pagharang sa akin ng isang masisiguro kong bagong gwardya na kinuha ni Hugo. Hugo is acting as the leader huh? Making me invisible like I'm not the next owner? Well, I don't have the right to say that now because I did leave the organization for myself.
“I know, papasukin mo ako.” Matigas kong sabi, pero ang malaking katawan nito ay hinarangan ang bakal na pinto, I sighed and show the last thing I don't want to show in my whole life.
“Am I valid enough to enter?” May kalakasang sabi ko, napalunok naman ito at pinagbuksan ako ng pinto, I saw him push some button. I bet he's notifying the brute, Hugo.
Agad ko naman nahanap ang black field, kung saan halos lahat nagtitipon-tipon. Ang Ilan ay hindi ako kilala, halos lahat bago, wala akong makitang pamilyar sa mga mukhang naroon sa black field. The look, vicious, brutal and uncaring people.
Ibang iba sa dating Nysus.
I hate this place...
“Hugo! Labas!” Iratadong Sigaw ko dahilan mapasinghap ang lahat halatang hindi nagustuhan ang inaasta ko. Ganon ba nila nirerespeto ang bugok na iyon? I was just gone for months, tapos iba na sila? How amusing.
“Gusto mi bang mamatay babae! Binabastos mo ang pangalan na tinatawag mo. Alam ko na ganyan ka umasta dahil gusto mong subukan ang leader pero hindi ko gusto ang papananalita mo.” Isang lalaking may Sabi kung saan may kutsilyong nakatutok sa leeg ko, I tsked and remove it, uncaring to people whose looking at me, like angry people who wants me dead.
“At last you're back!” Sabi ng pamilyar na boses, I though he was kind, but that though isn't always right. Hugo isn't far from kind, he's greedy.
“Sabi ko 'wag kang makialam Hugo.” Sabi ko at sinipa ito sa likod ng tuhod dahilan napaluhod ito at apakan iyon bago hagipin ang buhok nito upang napaangat ang mukha nito sa akin. Ang ibang tao ay naalarma ay itinutok sa akin ang mga armas na dala nila.
I laugh sarcastically.
“Fast as always, Kira. Kaya miss na miss kita.” Hindi ako kumibo at mas lalong hinigpitan ang pagkakahawak sa buhok nito.
“Hindi ka rin nagbago Hugo, nagkukulang ka parin. Hindi mo ba tinuruan ang mga tauhan mo magtanong ng pangalan? Ganito ba sila lagi ha? Kung kanino kanino lang tumututok ng kutsilyo?” Sarkastikong sabi ko, natawa naman si Hugo animo'y biro ang sinabi ko. Mas baliw pa ito kaysa sa amin ni Kuya.
“Arms down,” utos ni Hugo agad naman sumunod ang mga tauhan nito. I just sighed and stop gripping his hair and frustratedly comb my hair before looking at the people who's looking at me like I'm a sort of puzzle on them.
I release a harsh breath and show to them my card. Making them scoff, some even got their breath hitch.
“Is this enough evidence to prove my identity?”
A/N:
