“Wow, I never knew being noticed feels so nice.” Nakangiting wika ko sa litanya ni Kade about how he noticed me with my favorite color blue.

Ginawaran niya rin ako ng ngiti. “You're too beautiful to be unnoticed.” And just like how his words always affect my system, my cheeks turned red again!

“Oh, shut up. I am aware. I mean, dzUh! Most guys only noticed pretty faces, not their actions, their favs and so on!” Tumawa naman ito at tumango. “Indeed, most but let me be your exception, attorney.” T-tangina! Kanina pa 'to ah? Baka pag pinakilig ko 'to, mabangga kami.

“Pasalamat ka naka drive ka! Nakaka-rami kana! Pag ako bumanat, wala 'yang angas mo!” Tumawa parin ito, wow saya ah? Mamaya 'to saakin sa kung saan man niya ako dadalhin.

Sakto rin at nakarating na kami sa destination namin. He opened the door for me at nag lakad kami sa maliit na daan.

“Ang dilim, saan ba talaga tayo pupunta? What if kidnapper ka pala?” Tinawanan lamang ako nito. Kanina pa 'to tawa ng tawa eh.

Maka-banat nga. “But, if you are really the kidnapper? I would happily beg you to take me to your home and change my surname into Lopez.” Natigilan ito sa sinabi ko. Sabi na eh! Wala ang angas nito saakin.

“Shhhh!!” Nagulat ako ng bigla itong sumenyas at hinila ako para mag tago sa may malaking bato. Huh?? Akala ko kinilig siya? What the hell is happening?

“Dito nalang natin itapon, pre. Paniguradong hindi na 'to makikita ng mga tao lalo na ang mga kamag-anak nito.” Sako iyon at kahit na madalim ay nag sisilbi namang ilaw ang mga bituin at buwan kaya nakita namin ang porma ang nasa loob ng sako. Tao iyon!

I almost gasps, but Kade managed to cover my mouth. Good thing that my brightness is set into low, I had the chance to call the police.

But, they can't be heard, we can't be heard so I texted the police number first.

Me: We had caught a criminal, but please don't say anything I'll set my phone into a call with you without any noices so that the murderers here won't be able to hear.

Good thing that the police is my Kuya Aries friend so he did what I had told him. I called him and set the call into a loud speaker so that he could hear what's happening.

“Paano kong may makadaan at malaman na may nakatapon na bangkay dito?” Ang isang lalaki naman ngayon ang nag tanong sa kasama niya.

I wonder who's inside? At bakit siya pinatay? Walang awa talaga ang ibang mga tao. Oo, criminal ang gusto kong ipagtanggol but once I know that my client is really the criminal I wouldn't let that happen, I would do everything to put him behind bars. I will not accept the case. Walang maduming batas sa maayos mag trabahong abogado.

“Ano ka ba! Ang importante hindi nila alam ang maygawa. Hindi nila alam na tayo ang nag tapon.” Tumatawang sagot ng kasama niya.

Kuya's friend ended the call and texted me.

Police Officer: Text your location. Stay where you are right now, or who you are with. Huwag kayong lalabas sa pinag tataguan ninyo. Para mahuli pa namin sila sa akto, pupunta na kami diyan.

After I received the text, I immediately turned off my phone. Hinawakan naman ni Kade ang kamay ko.

“Are you nervous? Squeeze my hand if yes” He whispered. So I did what he said, I squeeze his hand.
