You're Under Arrest (gxg)

Chapter 3

"Di ka pala marunong magbisaya Julianne?" tanong ng nanay ni Carina. Inimbita kasi ako nila para maghapunan at saka parang gusto ako kilanin ng nanay niya. Kanina pa kasi ito tanong ng tanong. I tried to resist yung pagka-irita ko, they don't know na naiinis ako pag ang dami ng tinatanong.

"Hindi po, kakalipat ko lang po dito." sagot ko.

"Ahh kaya pala. May mga kamag-anak ka ba dito iha?" tanong niya. Bigla naman akong napahinto sa pagkain. Naisip ko tuloy yung kapatid ko. Kung nandito pa sana siya ngayon, di na sana ako nagkaganito.

"Ma, pagod na yan si Julianne. Wag niyo na pong kulitin at tanungin." sabi ni Carina sa mama niya. Napansin niya siguro ako.

"Sorry talaga iha. Cge kain muna kayo ng maigi. Magtitimpla muna ako ng juice." aniya at pumunta sa kusina.

"Pasensya na talaga sa mama ko ha? Madaldal talaga yun." sabi ni Carina.

"It's okay." sabi ko at ipinagpatuloy ang pagkain.

Pagkatapos ng hapunan, nagpasya na akong umuwi sa bahay ko. I'm not really good with people, ewan ko ba. Baka they'll think na ang rude ko, but I'm not. Nahihiya lang talaga ako with things.

"Uwi na po ako tita at Carina." paalam ko sa kanilang dalawa. "Oh and thank you rin nga pala for the dinner." dagdag ko bago tumalikod.

"Salamat din iha." pasalamat ng mama niya.

"Julliane." tawag ni Carina.

Lumingon ulit ako sa kanya at nabigla nung niyakap niya ako. I'm still stunned pero I tried to hug her back. It was just a few seconds at pagkatapos humiwalay na siya.

"Salamat sa pagligtas ng buhay ko." she said while showing her sweet smile.

I couldn't help myself but also smile back.

Pagkatapos nun, I turned away, trying to hide my flushing cheeks. Haha maybe crush ko siya. She's simple, nice, caring and lovely. She may also have this obnoxious side, but pinapalabas niya lang yun when she's happy and comfortable with who she's with. I can't deny the fact that she's pretty. It's not her complexion that turns me on, but her attitude. We just met pero meeting her is one of the things I would want to cherish.

Umuwi ako mag-isa, malapit lang naman kaya it's okay. Pagkarating ko sa bahay ko, I went to the basement to check my secret room. I went to the corner to locate the mirror, andito kasi yung lever para ma open yung secret room ko. Nung nakita ko na yun, I switched it on. Biglang lumabas yung vaulted door ko at humingi ito ng password. I went there to have my thumb print scanned and para na rin sa voice command ko.

"Quad the Fourth." sabi ko sa intercom.

"Password accepted." sabi nito at bumukas na yung vaulted door.

Pumasok ako dito at umupo. My agent stuffs are still here. My gps locator, my armors, weapons, gadgets and so many other things. Pati mga top secret files ko andito, especially sa mga previous missions ko noon. I did quit being an agent pero I didn't trash my agent-related stuffs. Gusto ko lang talaga lumayo sa Linea, to have a more peaceful life and environment.

I slid my chair to the computer and typed Carina's name. I don't know, I just wanted to know her more.

Crush nga dba?

"Carina Perez hmm..." I whispered her name.

After a few seconds, her bio and information were on the screen.
