Liam Rancetine - II

" YOU ! " i remember now. Yung sapatos, yung tumama sa ulo ko. Sa kanya galing yun.

This woman.

" Ow, your so sweet.Anyway your welcome." she said. Obviously teasing me

I look heavenward and let out a sigh in disbelief. " Wow ? So after all i should be thanful to you after you throw me your shoe !."

" Ofcourse ! If not for that shoe - ahh no, its sandals. If not for that sandals, malamang pinag lalamayan kana ngayon !." Sagot naman niya habang naka pamewang pa.

" Wow, just wow. At pano ka naman na kakasiguro na papatayin nga nila ako ?"

" Hello ? Hindi ba obvious sa pag bugbog nila sayo ? Syaka may kutsilyo sila ! Ibig sabihin may balak talaga silang patayin ka." she explain.

" Pero. Kung may malaki kang utang na loob, sa anak ko yun. If he didnt insisted on helping you, malamang hindi din kita tinulungan. Malay ko ba kung drug pusher ka. Tapos nakaalitan mo lang yung mga customer mo. O kaya goons ka, tas natyambahan ka ng mga kaaway mo. O kaya naman .."  i cut her off. I cant believe this woman. Shes the first one to accuse me of being a drug pusher or worst a criminal.

" Enough, look at me. " i command her and she do as she was told. She look at me intently and waited for what i will say.

" Look at me, mukha ba akong masamang tao ?." i ask her. Cause, f*ck. No one dare to accuse me of being a criminal. With my looks ? The guts who will.

But i didnt get the answer that i want. Instead, she a answer me with a question. " You really want me to answer that ?." her brows in creased and his arms was place cross her chest.

Napailing nalang ako sa sagot niya. Ibang klaseng babae. Kung ang iba, tanggap lang ng tanggap ng sinasabe ko, siya iba. Hindi lang niya tinatanggihan ang mga sinasabi ko, pinagdududahan pa.

" Ohh, this woman. You must be crazy !. Ako ? Mukhang criminal ?!." I almost shout. Disbelief was really visible in my face.

" Oo. baket ? Wala namang pinipiling mukha ang pagiging criminal ah." she defended.

Pumikit ako at huminga ng malalim. Onti na lang, magiging criminal na talaga ako pag hindi pa niya ko pinaniwalaan. Im usually a short temper. Matinding pasensya na ang meron ako ngayon para sa babaeng ito.

" Hin.Di. A.Ko. masamang tao, Okay ?." i breathed out. Word by word.

She pause for a seconds before saying " Okay .. Sabe mo eh." sumang ayon nga siya, pero ang mga tingin naman niya ay nang uuyam. At alam kong hindi pa din siya naniniwala.

What else do i need to do, to make this woman believe me ? Cause seriously ? Shes so hard to convince.

" Hindi nga sabe eh !." pag pupumilit ko pa.

Tumaas naman ang kilay niya sa sinabe ko.
" Baket ? Wala naman akong sinasabe ah ?  Pilingero ka lang." pag tataray pa niya.

" Hindi ako pilingero ! Wala ka ngang sinasabe pero the way you look at me say something."

" Sus. Ang dame mong alam, ganyan ba pag criminal ?" and again, she accuse me of something im not.

So i have no choice and decided to tell her what really happened last night to shut her up.
" Ughh ! I told you, Im.Not.A.Criminal ! Ok, Last night ? The three men who beated me was the brothers of the woman i had sex with. They caught us doing it in .." i stop explaining when she shake her hand in air, left and right as if telling me to stop talking.
