Your POV

As I was on my way home at night with a bag of medicine for Mikey, I felt as if someone was looking at me so I walked a bit faster. 

Searching for my pepper spray in my bag while walking faster and blaming my legs for being short, I turned around and saw a glimpse of pink hair hiding behind a wall.

I walked again before turning once more to check if someone is still following me, only to find a pair of droopy-blue eyes staring right into my soul.

PUTANG INA, ANO YUN?!!

[T: MOTHERFUCKER, WHAT WAS THAT?!!]

Internally I screamed and quickly ran as fast as I can only to be stopped when someone grabbed my wrist. 

"AAAHHHH!!" I screamed and sprayed pepper spray to his eyes and kicked him where the sun don't shine making him let go of my wrist.

He was wincing and cursing in pain while I quickly ran away to the nearest open place to lure him away from my place.

Panting, I leaned on the glass window of a shop to catch a breath then suddenly someone approached me.

"Are you okay, miss?" He asked in a low voice. When I lifted up my head, I gasp in shock to see how tall he was.

He was wearing coveralls and was holding a bottle of water. The most noticeable feature he had was the dragon tattoo on his head.

Suddenly, I felt dizzy as flashes of a blurred someone came to my mind who also had a similar tattoo on his neck.

I've been having these flashes right after New Year but I'd forget it afterward until it flashes again.

The tall man helped me and offered me a seat inside his shop where another person who has a scar on his face was working on a motorbike.

"Here" He said and handed me a bottle of water. Thanking him before accepting and drinking the water, I sighed in relief.

"Thank you so much for helping me. Sir?" I said with a bow while asking for his name.

"Just call me Draken. It's fine. Why were you running anyway?" He asked and sat across me. I introduced myself as Luz in return.

"Someone was following me so I ran away to the opposite direction of where I live." I said.

"I see, you should've gone home before it's six since it's dangerous at night here, Luz-chan." He said.

"I just got off from work." I replied and he raised a brow.

"You're a working student?" He asked and suddenly an irk mark appeared on my head.

"I'm a full-time nurse, Draken-san." I replied with a smile.

"Oh, sorry, I thought you were still a high-school student or something." He said

Aba parang nang-aaway to ah.

[T: Seems like he wants a fight.]

"It's because of my height isn't it?" I asked with a deadpanned look.

"It's because you look younger than you really are." He casually said.

Yun naman pala. 

[T: There you go.]

"But yes, it's also because of your height." He added and laughed.

ABA PUNYETA!

[T: WHAT THE FUCK!]

He soon apologized after then when I didn't stop looking at him with a threatening smile.

"Draken-san, can I ask?" I inquired as I look at him

"What is it?" He said while he continued to help his co-worker.

"Is there anyone else who had that kind of tattoo?" I asked, pointing at my temple.

"Hmm? Yeah, I have one friend who had the same tattoo on his head too. He doesn't show it since he grew his hair out. Why do you ask?" He replied.

"Nothing, I was just curious since I think I saw that tattoo before but I can't remember." I said.

Maybe it was someone else since the one in my visions had that tattoo on his neck. I can't be too sure of the design since it's a bit blurry too.

The rain suddenly poured then I checked my phone and saw that it was already 8:30 pm.

Oy hala, may pasyente pa pala ako sa bahay.

[T: Oh no, I remembered I have a patient at home.]

"Uhm, can I borrow an umbrella? I'll return it tomorrow too, I just really have to go home." I said.

Thankfully he had a spare umbrella for me to use.

"Are you sure that you don't need me to walk you back?" He asked but I denied. I can't trouble him any longer.

He gave me his number and told me to call him when someone still follows me before I left and walked back home.

Nagtitipid parin ako ng pera kaya minsan lang ako magta-taxi.

[T: I'm saving money so I'll just use a taxi if needed.]

I opened the door to my apartment and entered after folding the umbrella I used. 

"Mikey-" I tried to call but I felt a quick hand-chop on my neck, making me lose consciousness in seconds.

Mikey's POV

Sitting on the couch, I heard the door open so she is finally back. Standing up slowly and making my way to see her, I heard her call my name but it was cut off.

When I finally looked, I saw my right-hand man, soaked in the rain while Luz was unconscious on the floor.

My eyes widened and I approached her as quick as I can while wincing in pain from the wound on my abdomen.

"What did you do?" I asked in a threatening tone. When I looked closely, his eyes were red, making me think if he took drugs when he came here even if I told him not to.

"I just put her to sleep." He replied while I checked for a pulse which thankfully is present and a huge wave of relief came to me.

Wait, relief? I'm relieved that she's alive? I was worried that she died?

Since when did I care for other's life again? I barely even know her.

"Why did you come here? I told you not to find me." I asked with a sharp glare.

"The others don't believe me that you're okay so I came to take evidence that you are." He said and took a selfie with me, including the unconscious Luz.

"Is that it?" I asked.

"Also, to dispose of this woman. She knows too much and even assaulted me earlier when I just wanted to ask direction." He said as he looked at Luz.

"Who told you to touch her?" I asked and he gulped.

"She was running away so I held her wrist-" He said, making me snap. In an instant, I snatched the gun on his belt and pointed it at him.

"This is why I told you not to come. One more time you don't follow what I say, forget about buying pills because you'll be dead before you can even take them. Do you understand?" I said, my voice laced with venom.

"Yes" He said, making me put the gun down and returning it back to him.

I ordered him to pick Luz up and lay her on the couch before asking him to leave.

"What is she to you, Mikey?" He asked before he exits the door.

I stared at Luz for a moment before answering his question.

"She's my woman."
