The Loser Club Series 2: Mandy Suarez

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

MANDY CLOSE her eyes to feels Iván warm body against her as she rest her head on his chest and hear his heart beating loudly. He slowly cares her face and she feels his lips as he kissed her forehead and temple. She doesn't wanted it to end stay like this forever in his arms, in the arms of man she loves.

Kumalas siya mula sa pag-kakayap nito at pilit inaninag ang mukha nito, he's wearing this goggles with a small like flashlight on the side and half of his face is covered with mask.

Kinawit niya ang mga kamay sa balikat nito habang hindi inaalis ang mga mata sa binata.

"A-akala ko hindi k-kana dadating, Akalo ko din h-hindi mo na ako ililigtas." Umagos ang luha sa kaniyang mga mata, he just looking at her, and she realized she's talking to him in different language.

"W-hat I mean is-"
Isang malakas na pag-sabog ang nag-patigil sa sasabihin niya, a very loud explosion echoes on kasunod ng pag-kakagulo ng mga sundalo.

"What was that?" Kinakabahan usal niya.
"Shit." Mura nito tsaka kinapa ang radyo na nakasukbit sa uniporme nito.
"This is Iván, guys do you copy? You take the civilians out of here safe!"
Binalingan siya ni Iván at hinawakan sa braso.
"Come on Mandy."
Kasunod ng sunod-sunod ay natigil sila ni Iván sa paghakbang.
"Captain there's still more rebels coming in your way, I can't promise to take them all in my position."
Saad ng nasa kabilang linya.

"Copy that Bonue, secure the are areas and guide our team to safety, can I count you on that?"

"Copy that Captain."

"Gracias Lieutenant over and out."
Binalingan siya ni Iván.

"Come on Mi Corazon." He call her again with that name, she doesn't know what that's mean kaya hinayaan nalang niya tsaka sumunod dito.

Napatili siya ng makarinig ng sunod-sunod na putok patungo sa kanila, kung hindi lang sa mga nakaparadang sasakyan at hindi siya naiyuko ni Iván ay baka natamaan na siya.

"Mierda!"

"Clarissa what's the situation!" Tawag muli nito ng mag-ingay ang radyo na nasa balikat nito.

"Captain I'm really trying my best to cover you out and get out y'all out of that without anyone of you getting killed, but there's so many, they're coming up in west!" 

"Damn it!" Halata sa boses nito ang frustrations.

"Captain it's Vincent over." Muling nag-ingay ang radyo nito.

"Speak!" Saad nito tsaka nakipag palitan ng putok sa mga kalaban. Nakatago sila ngayon sa unahan ng sasakyan habang siya ay nakatakip ang mga kamay sa kaniya tenga.

"We're ate going to have a diversion, as some of us will take the rebels in the west! General Ponce's team is on the way, in that will gonna corner them. And the rest will take the civilians the safe place."

"Okay then execute the plan, Don't you dare die! Is that loude and clear!"
Rinig niya ang pag-tawa ng sa kabilang linya.

Muli itong nakipag palitan ng mga putok, tsaka binalingan siya.

"Do you have some strength Mi Corazon?" Iván ask.

Lumunok siya at tsaka tumango, "Y-yes."

"Good." Wika nito tsaka inalis ang helmet at tinanggal ang suot na goggles at maingat na sinuot sa ulo niya, naipikit niya ang mata habang sinusuot nito iyon.

Then she open her eyes at dun na pagtanto na night vision goggles pa iyon.

"T-his is a-"

"A night vision goggles, you gonna need that, you're not familiar with this place."
