Napahagalpak naman ng tawa si Sophia ng makita ang sunod-sunod na pagtulo ng luha ko dahil sa mga nakikita ko. "Oh.. I love the you cry, bítch! Ayan yung gustong-gusto kong makita!" at napahawak ako ng mahigpit sa tyan ko ng paputukan niya muli si Mike at tuluy napapikit.

"Mga walang kwenta!" natatawang sabi ni Sophia saka nito binalik ang pagkakatutok ng baril saakin.

"God can't help you now, Isabella! Sabi ko naman sa'yo babalikan kita, babalikan ko kayong lahat!" sigaw nito saakin.

"S–Sophia.. where's Blake?" tanong ko at ngumiti naman siya.

"Good question. That's why you're here, bítch. To help me lure him."

"I'll rather–"

"Ano? You'd rather díe? That can be arranged. I'm here to settle this once and for all. And you, Isabella, you're going to help me!" sigaw nito. There's a moan coming from Eian, nahihirapan na siya pero sinusubukan niyang tumayo.

"Let Isabella go, crazy!" sigaw nito at tumawa lang si Sophia.

"Or what? You're not going to do anything, man." Sophia has the gun aimed at him and her finger poised on the trigger. She aims the gun and shoot Eian again. He crumples back down on the ground, silent now.

Ngumisi naman si Sophia at binalik nito ang tingin at pagkakatutok ng baril saakin. "Now, as I was saying, you're going to help me. Call Blake. Now!" matigas niyang utos.

"No!" sagot nito at napasinghap ako ng itutok nito ang baril sa sintido ko. "Don't test me, bítch. I'm not kidding, pápatayin talaga kita ngayon din kapag dimo tinawagan si Blake!" Sabi nito. "Call him NOW!" sigaw na nito.

"I won't let you use me to threaten –"

Agad niyang hinablot ang buhok ko at kinuha sa bulsa ko ang cellphone at babawiin ko sana yon ng ibalik nito ang pagkakatutok sa noo ko, agad niyang pinindot ang emergency call para kay Blake.

Please don't answer this time. Please don–

"Isabella?"

Dámn it! Tears begin to stream down my face as I hear his voice. I can't tell if they're from sadness, terror, or relief.

"How much do you love your wife, Blake?" saad ni Sophia na kinapikit ko.

"If you harm a hair on her head, Sophia. I swear to God." sabi nito at tumawa naman siya.

"Play nice, Blake. I have your wife. And if you want to see her alive, I suggest you to come to the hospital... ALONE.

"Sophia, I –"

"Hurry up now. Baka magbago pa ang isip ko, alam mo namang kating-kati na ako noon palang na patáyin ang babaing 'to."

She said then with a satisfied grin on her face, she tosses my phone on the ground, steadying her gun. "And now.. we wait." sabi nito saakin.

"Now let's see how much he truly loves you, Isabella. Will he risk his life to save you?" sabi nito at tiningnan ko siya ng matalim.

"Are you stúpid, Sophia? I wish he wouldn't come here–"

"Oh, come on, Isabella, we both know you love being a damsel in distress."

"What planet do you exist on, Sophia? I've never been a damsel in distress, and I have no intention of becoming one today." saad ko at mas hinigpitan niya ang tutok ng baril saakin.

"You sure run your mouth for someone with a gun pointed at their head." sabi nito at nginisihan ko siya.

"Hinding-hindi ako matatakot sa isang baliw na tulad mo, Sophia." saad ko at sinubukan kong patatatagin ang boses ko kahit na ang totoo ay natatakot na talaga ako sa pwedeng mangyari saamin ni Blake.
