CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

"AND THIS is the address," Wynter voiced out.

They all left Narae's car and parked it in front of the house.

Anurak then felt three pairs of eyes settle on him. "Familiar?" he heard Dominique ask.

He took a deep breath as he stared into the humble abode. "Not really."

"Too bad. According to the information that our investigator found, we think you know who this is," Dom said with a hint of mystery.

He then heard Narae tsked. "Then that person will surely love hell."

Si Wynter na ang pumindot ng doorbell dahil mukhang badtrip na badtrip na si Narae, nakatulala naman si Anurak, at tamad si Dom.

After a couple of seconds, the main door opened and revealed a pretty middle-aged woman. "Hi, how may I help you?" nakangiti nitong wika sa kanilang apat.

"May we speak with your daughter? Or actually, it's only our friend here who wants to talk to her." Dominique motioned his hand to Anurak.

Medyo naguguluhan silang tiningnan ng ginang pero hindi pa rin nawala ang ngiti nito. "May I ask who you are?"

"This is Professor Anurak Saetang, one of your daughter's professors. He would like to talk to her about her behavior in his class," tuloy pa ring pakikipag-usap ni Dom.

"Shouldn't we be involved in that talk?" the lady confusedly asked.

Wynter then spoke. "It would be your daughter's choice whether to inform you about it. For now, Anurak wants to talk to her in private."

Nakita naman nilang huminga nang malalim ang ginang bago muling ngumiti saka binuksan ang pinto at pinapasok silang lahat. "She is in her bedroom as of the moment."

Napatango naman silang apat saka tuluyang pumasok sa loob ng bahay. Saktong wala raw ang ama dahil nasa trabaho ito kaya naman nagpaiwan sina Wyn at Dom sa sala upang kausapin ang ginang saka pinapunta sina Narae at Anurak sa nasabing kwarto ng may kagagawan ng eskandalong kumalat sa campus website nila.

Kumatok muna si Anurak sa pinto. "Nervous?" Anurak nodded at Narae's question. "Mad?" He nodded again. "Me too. But let's finish this once and for all."

Muling tumango si Anurak at akmang kakatok muli nang may magsalita mula sa loob ng kwarto. "Bukas 'yan, Ma!"

Bahagyang natigilan si Anurak. He somehow recognized that voice but he kept on wishing he was wrong. No. S-She wouldn't do that to Wor.

Nang bumukas ang pinto ng kwarto ay bumungad sa kanila ang isang morenang babae na kasing edad ni Worachet. She's pretty and looks like a doll. But unfortunately, Wynter's and Dominique's investigations pointed her as the culprit. "A-Ajarn..." The lady stilled at the sight of him.

"Miss Victoria Navarro," Anurak spoke in a matter-of-fact tone. Seryoso niyang tinitigan ang babae. He was honestly trying to point out that his friends were wrong but...

Nakita niya ang bahagyang panginginig ng babae bago pilit itong tinakpan ng ngiti. "A-Ajarn, what can I do for you?"

He then saw Narae step forward from his peripheral vision. "Aren't you Worachet's best friend? Other than Star, of course." His cousin sounded way more pissed than he was, and she wasn't even doing anything to cover it up.

Dahan-dahan namang tumango ang dalaga. "I-I am, actually. Why? I-Is there a problem?"

Narae snickered. "Yeah, actually. There is." She then slightly pushed the lady back to her room then followed.

Sumunod din naman si Anurak saka isinara ang pinto. Kinakabahang napatingin sa kanya si Victoria. "W-What's the matter, ajarn?"

Nanatiling tahimik si Anurak kaya naman si Narae nang si Narae ang nagsalita. "Let me guess... You like Worachet, don't you?" nakangising pang-asar ng dalaga. "But unfortunately, you found out that your precious admiration was ruined because of Wor's sudden relationship with our dear professor." Narae calmly sat at the edge of Victoria's bed. "Little Vicky's heart was torn apart. So sad," she mockingly said as she caressed the hair of one of Victoria's dolls.

Napatingin naman si Anurak sa tahimik na babaeng nakatayo sa harapan ng study table. Namumula ang mga mata nito at malapit nang umiyak. Wala namang maramdamang awa si Anurak. Truth to be told, he doesn't feel anything as of the moment except for betrayal... on Worachet's side.

Nangunguyam na tiningnan ni Narae ang dalaga. "I wonder how Worachet would react once he found out that it was one of his best friends who f*cked him up." His cousin glared at Victoria as she stood up and walked towards her until she stopped in front of the crying lady. "So... what can you say?"

Mas lumakas ang hagulgol ng dalaga bago nag-angat ng tingin at lumingon sa kinalalagyan niya. "You ruined everything!" biglang sigaw nito habang masamang nakatingin sa kanya. "W-Worachet was supposed to be mine. N-Nararamdaman ko eh. M-Mahal niya ako." Bigla siya nitong dinuro. "Pero nang dahil sayo, nawala lahat! Ang landi mo—"

Nagulat si Anurak nang malakas na sinampal ni Narae si Victoria. His cousin was raging mad. Nanginginig ang kamay nitong pinangsampal sa babae. Anurak was speechless and was about to talk when Narae got ahead of him. "Okay, b*tch. My brother may be flirty but he never ruined anyone's relationship. Your non-existing romantic relationship with Worachet was never destroyed by my cousin, because right from the start, there's nothing to be destroyed. Sabihin na nating nagmahal ka, pero puny*mas naman. 'Wag ka namang gumawa ng isang bagay na masasaktan yung taong mahal mo. Didn't you see how Worachet reacted when he knew about the f*cking scandal you posted? Kasi kung hindi mo nakita, pwes ako oo."

Biglang natigilan si Anurak saka napatitig sa pinsan. She saw him? When? Where? How?

"Worachet was in pain, Victoria. He wanted to be with Anurak but because of the setup that you put them both in, everything seemed impossible. H-He didn't want to leave my brother and yet, he thought he had to. Because of your st*pid, harmful decision, your best friend is crying and hurting. Are you happy now, huh?"

Victoria then sat on the floor as if her legs gave up on her as she sobbed loud and hard. "I-I'm sorry. G-Ginusto ko lang n-naman na piliin ako ni Wor. I-I loved him ever since I-I saw him. I-I thought he felt the same. G-Galit na galit ako nang malaman kong m-may namamagitan sa kanilang dalawa ni prof." Muli itong humagulgol. "I-I never meant to hurt him. I-I wanted him to see t-that choosing ajarn was wrong. N-Na dapat ako na lang." She hugged her knees as she cried louder. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry," Victoria kept chanting.

Si Anurak naman ay nanatiling nakatulala saka hinatak si Narae papalabas ng kwarto ng dalaga. He couldn't make himself utter a word. He was too stunned with what happened. Tapos may hinuha pa siyang nakausap ng pinsan niya si Worachet. Na pinili siyang iwan ng binata sa sobrang takot.

Anurak left the house and walked without direction. The only thing running through his mind was the fact that he finally knew the answer to his question. He finally knew what to do. And that is to let Worachet go.
