INIS NA GINULO ni Candy ang buhok pagkaalis nya ng maskara sa mukha. Inis na inis sya dahil parang palos ang hayop na Martinez na 'yon, hindi nya matamaan kahit sa braso o hita manlang
"You okay?"
Tinignan nya si Phoenix at binato ang hawak na kunai patungo sa direksyon nito. Agad naman iyong naiwasan ni Phoenix "Feeling better?"
"No. Did you find him?"
"Yeah, he's on the run but your men is still following him" sabi nito
"Matutulog muna ako, if something happens wake me up"
Tumango lang si Phoenix at lumabas ng silid nya
Malalim na bumuntong hininga si Candy at tumingin sa salamin ng silid nya
Tatlong buwan na mula ng utusan sya ng Reyna, ngunit hanggang ngayon ay hindi parin nya mahuli-huli si Deither Martinez. Kung pwede nya lang itong patayin, ginawa na nya ngunit hindi iyon ang utos. I need a better plan
Nahiga sya sa kama at pinikit ang mga mata. Ilang oras syang nakatulog ngunit agad din syang nagising dahil sa malakas na ingay sa labas
Hinilamos nya ang palad sa mukha saka nagtungo sa banyo para maligo. Mabilis lang na ligo ang ginawa nya at nagbihis saka lumabas
"Hey, good morning" bati ni Felix sa kanya
"Kumusta?"
"They're doing fine in the Hospital" sabi nito
Umupo sya sa stool at tinignan ang hinandang breakfast ni Felix. Tahimik syang kumain
"I heard what happened from Phoenix. Do you want a hug?"
"I'm fine"
Lumapit si Felix sa kanya at yumakap sa kanya "You need it"
Napailing nalang sya at sinandal ang ulo sa balikat ni Felix "Pagod na ako"
"Do you want to hear a good news?"
"What is it?"
"I found my 'the one'"
Mahina syang natawa sa sinabi ni Felix
"I'm serious. I found my 'the one". She's amazing and beautiful" sabi nito at matunog na ngumiti "Aren't you amazed? I found a girlfriend"
Tinignan ni Candy si Felix at kumalas dito "I'm happy for you"
"Thanks. Do you need more hug?"
"I'm fine, thank you" sabi nya at nagpatuloy sa pagkain
"Leif Martinez went to the hospital a week ago"
Natigilan si Candy sa sinabi ni Felix "He asked me if you're doing okay. I said, yes. He said, he's waiting for you to come back. No matter how long, he will wait"
Napakurap si Candy sa sinabi ni Felix at kinalma ang sarili "Thank you"
"Should I tell him?"
"No. I'll surprise him" sabi nya at tinignan si Felix
"I can sense that you need a hug, again"
Napangiti sya at umiling "I'm fine, Felix"
"You can call him if you miss him" sabi nito
"I miss him so much but now is not the right time. I'm on mission"
"Candy, don't be so hard on yourself. It's not healthy for you" sabi ni Felix
