183 | Inflame : Flaring Enigma

XIAFEZIN ROZE'S POINT OF VIEW

"I would need to consult this to my husband first. I will let you know my decision once I got the chance to talk to him."

Kahit na walang kasiguraduhan, tila nabuhayan siya ng loob sa sinabi ko.

For a moment, I could sense that she still wanted to convince me, but she stopped herself to respect my decision.

"H-How?"

Oh, how else?

"Give me your calling card," sabay lahad ko ng palad sa kaniya. "I'm fairly certain ELU provides everything we could possibly need to stay here, as well as keep in contact with the outside world. We have all the resources necessary, especially thanks to Darcee."

"Oh. Y-Yes, you're right!"

She rummaged in her bag and handed me her calling card. I took it and flickered my eyes on her.

"They vouched me a condo to stay and lend me some of their security guards. And yes, Mr. Darcee knows about this. He allowed me to come over here to talk to you."

Just as how I expected it. Imposibleng nakalusot siya rito nang hindi dumadaan kay Darcee at sa mga tauhan niya. I sighed.

The old woman looked tearful as she watched me.

"Maraming-maraming salamat sa oras, hija. Sa ngayon makakahinga na ako nang maluwag kahit paano. Pakiusap, pag-isipan mo nang mabuti ang mga sinabi ko."

Hindi na ako sumagot. Seryosong tumitig lamang ako sa calling card niya na kaloob pa ng ELU.

It is a unique visiting card specifically used in Terra Reale. It includes the phone number she is currently using, the hotel address where she is staying, and her company information that is located outside of the realm.

"Kung maaari, pwede pa tayong magtulungan, hindi ba?"

"Gaya ng sinabi ko, pag-iisipan ko pa," ulit ko.

Tumango siya at tipid na ngumiti. "M-Mauuna na ako kung ganoon. Alam kong nakaistorbo na ako sa umaga ninyo. Hihintayin ko ang tawag mo. Salamat ulit, hija."

Tumango na lamang ako at hinayaan na siyang umalis. Tinanaw ko siya sa bintana na naglalakad papalayo at papalabas ng aming gate. I sighed and my eyes dropped on Raul's necklace. Is this a sign?

Do I really need to help their mom?

Umihip ang malamig na hangin. Pumikit ako para damhin iyon at klaruhin ang isipan ko.

"Roze..." I heard Krystal voice behind me.

Nilingon ko siya. Malapit na agad siya sa'kin. His arm circled my waist as he looked outside where I was facing earlier. Nakita niya si Tita Briea na palabas na ng gate.

"Who was that? I've never seen her before."

Bumuntonghininga ako at diniresto na agad siya. "Rica Brieaulle Madrigal. Raul and Braze's mom. I used to call her Tita Brieau."

"Ano naman ang kailangan niya sa'yo?" kunot-noo niyang tanong.

"Humingi siya ng tulong sa'kin na mabawi si Braze Jackens at iuwi sa kanila."

His brow shot up. "At pumayag ka?"

Umiling ako. "Mukha namang malinis ang intensiyon niya sa paglapit sa'kin, pero ang gusto ko sana, ipaalam muna sa'yo bago ako magdesisiyon."

Ilang sandaling tumitig si Krystal sa'kin habang nag-iisip. Kalaunan ay tumango siya.

"It's reasonable for you to help her, and I don't have a problem with his mother wanting him back home. However, please be cautious. It's difficult to trust anyone, even if you used to know each other."
