Aldeheid

Chapter 27

Forbidden
——————————————————————

It was late night in Malcolm. After the war, everyone pitched in to aid the town and cleaned up with haste but careful in their own ways. No one dared to ask about the war. It was a rule in Malcolm, to forbid any kind of things that will remind anyone about a horrific event that happened. And until the alpha's announcement, no hybrid nor anybody living inside Malcolm shall ever have to talk about it.

In a room at a hospital, where only a lamp lits the whole space, sits the baffled looking Doctor Watsons. It was just a minute ago that he had finally finished his cases but instead of resting, his eyes were too awake to not read all the papers he's got his hands on. Sa sobrang kalituhan niya ay maski siya hindi niya alam paano niyang nakuha ang mga papeles na hindi niya dapat sana makita.

He turned the pages of all the printed copies of Miss Roswell's results. Ito ang mga kopyang nakuha niya mula sa laboratory copies. No one actually handed these to him—he got them for himself. After all, he wouldn't be a successful thief if it weren't because of his fast hands.

But he wasn't going to really steal them, he was just going to save a copy for himself and give all of them back. Isasauli pa rin naman niya kaya hindi mahulog sa pagnanakaw ang ginawa niya. Matagal na rin kasi simula noong hininto niya ito. Well, it wasn't really his choice to end his stealing career, it just so happened that the alpha's mate defeat him in their deal that's why he stopped and ended up being a doctor. However, it was not a defeat for him. Aside from getting a decent job, he married someone he had just once longed to talk to.

With the document folder he borrowed from his dear wife, he utilized her files as starting point. Hindi niya alam kung ano talaga ang gusto niyang malaman but he just smell something so fishy about the records. As a hybrid himself, he could almost sense that something about the records doesn't sit right.

Isa-isa niya itong kinompara. There were five paperwork sprawled across his desks. Three of the documents are test findings, one is a copy provided by the lab which was the copy everyone has, and fourth is the record his dear wife made.  He read everything and didn't mess a single word, lines, and even dates of the documents. He simply needed fifteen minutes to find four distinct outcomes from one of the laboratory paperwork.

His back straightened and he started wondering who the hell would have fabricate such confidential information?

"...the blood contaminated (AB+) was found." he spoke before he read his wife's records, "...the blood contaminated (AB-) was found together with shredded pieces of glass."

"...foreign DNA found under Aldeheid Rosé Roswell's fingernails—" he switched, "—foreign DNA found under Elino Premisco's fingernails." Doctor Watsons gritted his teeth the second time he read that statement.

"Callum Clemente broke one rib—tanginang gawa-gawa naman 'to, pati ako naniwala." sarkastiko niyang sambit bago humalakhak mag-isa.

He's never held a grudge towards Callum after what his adopted mother did to his dear wife, even jealousy—well, maybe a little but even if he did, it wasn't the reason he had a good laugh from the details he just read. Kasi paano ito mabalian ng buto kung napatay niya mismo si Premisco?

He could only just shake his head and deliver the last laugh he could have that night before reading the last statement of the four.

"The trigger of Elino Premisco and Callum Clemente's blood lust was caused by Aldeheid Rosé Roswell—just what the hell?"

He noticed how this fabricated document point all fault to Miss Roswell when in fact, she was the victim.

Hindi talaga siya makapaniwala sa nakasulat sa isang dokumentong nasa harapan niya. It was the same document he received, and he bet, it was also what everyone else read. Para bang ito ang dokumentong ginamit upang malaman ng lahat ang maling nakasulat dito. But as a matter of fact, it was contrary to the other three documents.
