PURŪS SEDUCERE 1: BOUND BY DESIRE

Chapter 17

"Get a hold of yourself! Ilang beses ko bang kailangang ipaulit sayo itong report? You already did it 8 times" sigaw ng manager ng producer's team.

I was affected.

So affected to her death.

Travus acts like it was nothing. That it was a normal news for him. Pero saakin hindi. Kasalanan ko kung bakit nangyari iyon.

Ang masakit pa, I knew the suspect behind it but I can't speak up because I don't have the evidence.

"Im-" naputol ang sasabihin ko ng biglang sumingit ang lalaking kanina pa laman ng utak ko.

"You can ask for the report nicely Ms. Torres, no need to shout" wika ni Travus. His voice was filled of Authority and superiority.

Kita ko namam ang pagyuko ng babae. Hindi pa ito nakakapagsalita ng bigla na lang akong hilahin ni Travus paalis roon.

Pansamantalang nailipat ako ng department. Travus needed to transfer me in production department since they are lacking preparations of products.

Panandalian lang naman, it's been 3 days since I got transferred .

"What the heck happened to you? You're like a withered vegetable walking!" Wika niya habang hinihila ako.

"I supposed to warn and protect her" wika ko.

Hinila niya ako papasok at hindi sumagot.

Pinaupo niya ako sa Upuang tatlong araw ko ng hindi nauupuan.

Pumunta siya sa lamesa at may kinuhang mga papel.

"Stop blaming yourself, we don't have any control on someone's life. If she will going to die she'll die" wika ni Travus.

"But we supposed to help her! We supposed to prevent them from killing her!" Malakas na boses kong ani.

I saw how his eyes darkened.

"That's not how the organization works! Yes it is our responsibility and duty to protect her pero hanggang don lang yun, we are not reliable to her death, kaya move on and do your work properly" wika ni Travus.

I get his point but my heart couldn't take it.

Tumayo siya at lumapit sa lamesa ko. He was lean on my desk as he make me face him.

"Focus" wika niya. I was about to divert my face when he suddenly lean closer to me and give me a kiss.

"Just Focus, everything's gonna be fine" wika niya at ibinigay ang papel saakin.

"That will be our next mission. That's the most important mission for me. Be my eye. I'll be back" wika at niya at umalis.

Hindi ko maintindihan ngunit binuksan ko ang folder. The first thing I saw in the first page was a picture of a woman.

The photo was taken in a stolen shot.

She was wearing a normal clothes while sitting in front of a massive house.

May hawak itong something like a sketch pad.

She's stunning even just with a normal clothes on.

"Sheena Ramirez" basa ko sa baba.

Is she in danger?

Do we need to protect her?

I don't know where the sudden heartache came from when I saw how much marks of highter and notes it had.

Travus really do investigate and study the case throughly.

Hindi ko alam kung bakit nakakaramdam ako ng ilang at pangamba habang pinagmamasdan ang larawan ng babae.
