Luca

Chapter 20

Chapter 20

SCARED. That's how I feel. I wanted to stop them but I am scared that the knife will be point at me. Howbeit, if I wouldn't stop them, who will I ask for help to stop Luca? I have no idea but I feel like no other person were left here beside us. Did the other servants ran when they saw that we were in chaos?

“You can't get him!” Charlotte yelled. Him?

Mama replied, “Oh, dear, I can do whatever I want. What should be done to nosy people like you, is being disposed!”

“I've been watching you from the start because you were really suspicious, and I wasn't wrong! You wanted to sell him to that crazy baron for money!” Sell him to that crazy baron for money? Even though I have an idea who and who it was, I still can not comprehend everything. It's so messy.

Mama let out an insane laugh. “You observed well. Do you think I do not notice you? Alam ko naman na wala kang magagawa kaya hinayaan na lang kita. Nevertheless, congratulations! I thought you wouldn't do anything and you're just a nosy maid, prying with my family issue, but you're here. Nakikipag-agawan ng kutsilyo sa akin. You should celebrate because you last this long without being buried six feet under. I was so busy to even meddle with you but you fucking bitch, dared to interfere with my plan! I should be holding him right right now if you wasn't long alive!”

A-Ano bang pinagsasabi nila?

I'm tired of questioning what was happening so I ran towards them and pulled Mama away. They both gasped with what I did and the knife fell from their grip. Napalingon sa akin si Mama na may nanggagalaiting mukha kaya mas lalo akong natakot at parang nagsisi sa ginawa. “Isa ka pa!” she pushed me hard that made me slump on the floor.

“F-Fabiola.”

Napalingon ako kay Charlotte at nagtaka dahil parang nag-aalala siya sa akin. She tried to approach me but Mama immediately pick the knife and act to stab her. My eyes widen and held her ankle tightly to stop her. She was so furious when she look down at me then kick me. I let a painful sound but still didn't let go of her ankle. She will kill Charlotte, for real!

Napatingin ako kay Charlotte na pasimple at agad na hinablot ang kutsilyo habang nasa akin pa ang atensyon nito. Mabilis na napalingon si Mama sa kaniya ngunit naibato niya na ito sa kasuluksulukan ng kwarto. Napasigaw na lang si Mama sa inis at mas malakas akong tinadyakan bago mabilis na tumakbo upang kuhanin iyon. Ngunit mabilis ding sumunod si Charlotte upang unahan siya. Pilit akong tumayo kahit nanghihina. Hindi ko alam kung sino ang kakampihan. Naguguluhan ako sa nangyayari.

Ang nasa isip ko na lang ay maagaw ang kutsilyo sa kanila upang hindi na sila magkasakitan. Ngunit anong sunod? Hindi ko maintindihan kung anong mayroon sa kanila. Kailangan ko iyong itanong ngunit paano? Kailangan ko na ring humingi ng tulong para patigilan si Luca kung hindi ay baka ano nang maabutan ko doon. He was so scary earlier; I can't approach him. His eyes were glowing and he was completely mad. Dalawa na ang pinoproblema ko ngunit kailangan ko nang kumilos.

My body stunned when I saw Mama pick the knife first. I screamed when she act to stab Charlotte on the face but she tried to avoid it; however, Mama is fast that cause her shoulder to be stab instead. My mouth agape when I saw the glimpse of dark liquid starts to spread on her white apron ruffle sleeve before she cover it with her hand. She let out a painful sound and tried to stand straight even though it looks freaking painful. I can't move my body because of lack of idea on currently what to do, but I will side Charlotte today.

Come on, Fabiola! Do something! I tried to mentally scream to myself but I'm scared. This is new to me. I never thought this day would happen. In one snap, everything is a mess. I don't know what happened to Papa too. I am worried about him but I need to stop them now. Mama seems to still couldn't get enough and tried to stab the falling weak Charlotte. I ran towards her and silently apologize before I push her away.
