Chapter 44.

Chapter 44.

"... Huh? Why did you come down alone? Where's Ledaine?"

Bungad na tanong ng ina ni Yasser sa kaniya habang pababa ito sa hagdan at nagpupunas ng buhok. Nginitian niya lang ang kaniyang ina saka lumapit sa kanila. Nakita niya ang iba't ibang papeles na nakakalat sa center table ng sala nila saka nagtanong.

"What are those for?" Tanong niya sabay sabit ng towel na gamit niya pampatuyo ng buhok sa kaniyang balikat. Sinilip niya ang laman ng mga ito saka mabilis na binawi ang tingin. "Why are you reading articles about that woman?" Yasser asked.

He wanted to say 'thay wretch' but he doesn't want to disrespect another woman in front of his mother, regardless if that woman had hurt him. 

"Yasser..." Mahinang tawag ng ama ni Yasser sa kaniya kaya napalingon siya rito. "I understand this woman had impacted your life in a negative way, but you have to listen to what we have to say."

He said while staring firmly at Yasser, Yasser frowned.

"Is it something that concern Ledaine? If not, then I don't think could care about it." Prangkang sagot niya, napatikom naman ng bibig ang ama nito.

"Then just listen to us, you don't have to show any care or anything, just listen to us." Yasser's mother said and motion for him to sit down. "This is about Chloe's current situation,"

Hindi nagsalita si Yasser nang marinig ang inaasahang sasabihin ng kaniyang ina saka umupo sa katapat na couch nito nang hindi tinatapunan nang tingin ang ina niya.

"Emman Cruz, I believe you've heard about him, right?" 

Tinignan lang ni Yasser ang ina niya saka ininom ang nakahandang juice sa harap niya 

"He is Chloe's current boyfriend."

"Of course I know, he was the one she's fucking with before things became annoying."

"Yasser, your mouth."

Napaiwas ng tingin si Yasser nang bigla siyang pandilatan ng mata ng kaniyang ama.

"Be careful with the words you're using in front of your mother, understand?"

Yasser nodded his head stubbornly while showing his dismay at the situation. He really doesn't want to listen to any more bullshits about Chloe as much as possible, but it seems like his parents won't let him go unless he listen to whatever it is that they have to say. 

"Emman, that guy, he was arrested for beating Chloe up yesterday."

Biglang nanlaki ang mga mata ni Yasser saka takang tumingin sa ina niya nang marinig ang hindi niya inaasahang balita mula rito. 

"What do you..."

"The police caught Emman, beating Chloe, in your old house. Fortunately, the police came before the beating became severe, however, Chloe sustain enough injuries for her to lose consciousness. She was immediately brought to a hospital and at the moment, she's in a critical condition."

Hindi naman nakapagsalita si Yasser. Nanlalaki ang mga mata niyang nakatitig sa ina niya habang prinoproseso ang mga impormasyon na nalaman niya.

'In my old house...'

"Chloe is currently in a critical condition and some doctor said that her life is in danger." Pagpapatuloy ng ina niya habang si Yasser naman ay malalim na ang iniisip. Different emotions and feelings filled him as the thought of Chloe's life being in danger flashes through his mind.
