Say You Love Me (A Leo Mafia Story)

Chapter 40

Kurt Nottinghamshire

Agad kong sinundan si Zac at Yuri nang makita ko silang tumakbo. I command Rix to make a way for me. I need to save her. I need to get her. Zac walk farther while tugging Yuri. I snarl at the sight before me.

How dare he hold Yuri like that? That fucker!

Someone appears at my side and try to shoot me pero naunahan ko siya. Hinayaan kong bumaon ang bala ko sa gitna ng noo niya. Tinignan ko ulit yung hulinh dinaan nila.

Fuck! I lost them. Agad akong tumakbo doon. Hoping na maabutan ko sila. And I did. But what I saw make my chest constrict. I stood rooted on spot as I stare at the woman infront of me hugging Zac. Pero hindi yun ang nakapagpatulala sakin.

No it's not. It was what behind her. It was the gun pointed at the back of her head. I can see Zac's body went stiff pero hawak niya pa rin si Yuri. Everything around us stops. Heck, pati yung oras yata ay huminto din.

Yuri tried to pull away from Zac's embrace but he did not let her. Her eyes fall into mine and for a moment I see a flicker of emotion in their. Agad rin naman iyon napalitan ng kaba. The gun was still pointed at her. I can't move and I can't breath.

"Aww... that's so sweet. Sorry pero mukhang matatapos na" Anthony said.

I watch Yuri eyes widen as recognition hit her.

Anthony didn't wait any second and he pulled the trigger. Everything happens in a blur. Wala akong maintindihan. Wala akong maramdaman. Tanging ang palahaw lang ni Yuri ang naririnig ng tenga ko.

"NO!"

Yuri Cabresa

Niyakap ko si Zac. I didn't want him hurt. Sa loob ng iilang taon naging mabuti sakin si Zac. Alam kong totoo lahat ng pag-aalaga at pagmamahal niya. Mahina akong nagpasalamat sa kanya.

He may be part of mh abduction pero ngayon napatawad ko na siya. Zac is still a good man to me, despite of everything. Matagal-tagal din kaming magkayakap. Kaya nung bibitaw na sana ako ay nagtaka ako ng biglang hinigpitan ni Zac yung yakap niya.

I tried to look at his face but stopped abruptly. I tried to blink ng makasalubong ng itim kong mga mata ang bluish gray eyes na madalas kong mapanaginipan. Napatitig ako sa mga mata ni Kurt at nakaramdam ako ng relief. But it was replaced with confusion. Bakit parang naestatwa si Kurt sa pwesto niya at bakit mahigpit pa din ang kapit sakin ni Zac. Hindi ko alam.

"Aww... that's so sweet. Sorry, pero mukhang matatapos na" nanigas ako nang marinig ko yung boses niya. Anthony Pearce.

His voice sent shiver down my spine. A bad kind of shiver. It felt like the world stops at the moment as I heard a loud bang. I can't believe my eyes. I don't want to believe my eyes. There he is sugatan. Nanlaki ang mata ko sa ekesenang bumungad sakin.

"NO!" sigaw mula sa malayo.

No not from afar. It came from me. Ako yung sumigaw pero bakit parang ang layo.

"Miss Yuri!" natauhan ako nang marinig ko yung boses ni... Angel?

I looked at her. Tears are forming at the corner of my eyes. She had that determine look on her face at may hawak din siyang hawak na baril. Napatingin ulit ako sa harapan ko. Anthony Pearce was lying on the ground, dead. Habang nakaupo si Kurt sa harapan ko. Hindi ko napansin na nakapalibot na pala samin sila Gabriel kasama nung iba. Habang si Zac ay nasa likod ko pa din.

"Kurt... Kurt!" it took me long to find my voice.

Tumakbo ako papunta sa kanya. He was holding the side of his stomach na hula ko ay tinamaan ng bala.
