Torn Apart

Avon's POV

My Dad received a call. I was sitting here at our couch sa sala when his phone rang.

He immediately stood up and answered his phone. Out of my curiosity i followed him at our pool area.

"Hello, Kevin? Any updates?"

I can't hear what the man talks on the other line it's because he is not in a loud speaker.

"I will call Imee. Yes. Bong can't go. He's busy with the campaign. Oo kami na bahala. Yes, we will be there in an hour..." then he hang up.

He turned around and saw me standing at our door. Lumapit siya sa'kin, and caressed my hair.

"We will find Mommy sooner, okay? Daddy will be out. Kasama si Tita Imee mo. May nahanap na ang mga police na location. Stay here, Anak. Sasamahan ka ng mga kuya mo." He uttered while he guided me to our living room.

"Can't i come?" I ask. He sigh.

"You can't, princess... dilikado at baka mapahamak ka pa. I can't lose you..." he shook his head. Bakas sa mga mata niya ang sakit.

Tumango ako at niyakap ang Daddy. "I love you, Daddy."

"I love you, princess."

Irene's POV

"Oh! Kumain kana daw!" I don't have an appetite to eat ever since he touched me. Tingin ko sa sarili ko ay wala na akong kwenta.

"Ayaw mo talaga kumain?!" Tiningnan ko lamang ang lalaking naghatid ng pagkain dito sa kwarto.

Umiling ako. He went closer to me. "Kakain ka diba!?" Mas umiling ako. He slap me. Napabaling ako dahil sa lakas ng sampal.

They are torturing me. Sinasaktan nila ako. Ang sakit na ng katawan ko. May mga pasa ako sa buong katawan.

My lips bleed.

"Parang awa niyo na..." i rubbed my palms. "Pauwiin niyo na ako..." i cried...

"HAHAHA! Kung hindi lang bawal na hawakan ka kanina kapa namin tinikman!" He laughs evilly.

I bit my lower lip as i look down. I can't find myself when they tries to touch me...

Umalis siya sa harapan ko. He exited the room. Bumagsak ang katawan ko sa kama.

It's been a month since Lorenzo kidnapped me. Simula noong araw na nahawakan niya na ako ay araw-araw niya na itong ginagawa sa'kin.

He went to this prison yes a prison and not a room, once. He was so drunk that time. I was still sleeping when he harshly pull both of my legs at walang awang pinunit ang pangluob ko.

He did it again, but that time he tortured me. May dala siyang pamalo.

He raped me until dawn... walang awa niya akong sinampal-sampal at pinalo. He was a devil.

I hope he will root into hell. Sana mamatay na siya!

Lumipas ang gabi ay bumukas ang pinto. I know it was him. Umatras agad ako sa kama.

"Parang awa mo na, Lorenzo... hindi ko na kaya..." pagmamakaawa ko. I needed to scape in this hell. Nahihirapan na ako.

"I'm not doing anything yet. Why so scared?" He was so calm. Papalapit siya sakin.

Umiling ako ng umiling.

"Maawa ka sa'kin. Hindi ko na kaya. Lorenzo hindi ko na kaya..." iyak ko.

Nagulat ako ng tumawa siya ng malakas.

"I came here to tell you that we found... your husband finds where we are..." pinasadahan niya sa kanyang daliri ang panga ko.

Bigla akong nabuhayan.

"Unfortunately... tatakas na tayo dito. I will make sure our next location can't be find by any of your family. I'm not done with you, Irene. Sa akin ka!" Binitawan niya ang panga ko.

Napahiga ako sa kama. Hinubad niya ang suot niya. Umiling ako ng umiling.

"Maawa ka sa'kin. Hindi ko na kaya..."

But he didn't listen...

Greggy's POV

"Greggy, kumalma ka. Mahahanap na natin si Irene..." it was Imee. Nahanap na namin ang lokasyon kung saan nila dinala ang asawa ko.

"I'm trying Imee. It is my wife, of course I'm just happy..." i licked my lips.

"Sir, mapupuntahan po natin ang lokasyon bukas. Start na po tayo sa paghahanap. Sa ngayon ay ino-obserbahan pa namin ang lugar." The chief of police told us.

I nodded. Umuwi ako ng bahay na medyo nabuhayan na. I checked my daughter's room. She's already sleeping. My two sons are busy with their thesis. I told them to rest but they said they're okay.

I went to our room. Nilibot ko ang paningin ko. I immediately saw our wedding picture.

Umupo ako sa kama at bumuntong hininga. Napatingin ako sa side table namin. I haven't saw this one.

It's a letter from my wife. Bakit hindi ko ito nakita?

I opened it. The date was before she's missing.

Dear Babe,

You know that i love you right? I wrote this letter because I can't think of any gift for our monthsary :(

You can afford anything and you all have the things that a man needs :)

I hope you will like this letter and i have a surprise for you!

I just want to thank you for giving me a wonderful family that I can't ask for more. I can't express my feelings for you by buying a material things, but i can assure you that i will love you until my last breath.

Greggy you will be my forever best friend and the love of my life <3

From: Your beautiful wife.

I started to cry. I can't lose you, babe. I will find you.

She supposed to surprise me the night after she went to my office. My wife has a surprise but it didn't happened because of that fucktard!

He even have a guts to run as a president?

After we found our that it was Lorenzo. He cancelled his candidacy as a president and he hides!

The night past, we are now heading to the location they sent me. It was unfamiliar.

"Kinakabahan ako, Greggy." Imee uttered; rubbing her chest. Nakagat ko ang ibabang labi ko.

"I'm more than nervous, Imee..." i reply.

Nasa sasakyan na kami ngayon at nakasunod lang kami sa mga police na nasa harapan namin.

Liblib na lugar na ang dinadaanan namin. Mas kinakabahan ako ng tumawag ang chief of police sa'kinna malapit na daw kami.

Minutes past we arrived to a very massive mansion.

The police started to raid the place. I was really hoping that they will find my wife.

I was praying to God na sana ay nasa maayos siya na kalagayan.

Later past, the chief of police went to our car where we waited. He sigh.

"We found a corpse inside, Greggy... hindi na makilala at hinala nila ay isa itong babae. We can't find Irene and we didn't see any people inside except to that corpse..."
