Sara balled her fists and gritted her teeth in frustration. Inupdate siya ni Baste kanina tungkol sa camera sa mga photographs pero madilim na raw ito. Mukhang inilagay sa malaking bag ang mga kuha ni Calvin. Tuloy ay wala na silang makuhang clue.
She sighed heavily, the weight of impatience bearing down on her as she watched the minutes tick by. They were set to enter the house of their target at three o'clock, timing their move with a meeting attended by the person they suspected. Isasama niya lamang si Risa dahil siguradong may alam ito sa taong 'yon.
Sara kept her eyes fixed on the target's house not far from where she was. A knock on her car window startled her and when she saw who it was, she quickly unlocked the door. Risa slipped into the passenger seat, ngumiwi siya nang makita ang ayos ng babae.
"Bakit ka naka heels?!" hindi makapaniwalang tanong niya kay Risa.
"Alangang mag paa ako?!" pabalang na sagot nito sakaniya.
Tiningnan niya ito ng masama. "Mag aakyat bahay tayo tapos naka heels ka. Ang bobo mo naman!"
Risa glared at her. "Mas bobo ka. And why ba tayo nasa place na 'to? That's uncle Antonio's house." she gestured towards the house.
"Iyan ang target natin."
"What?!" gulat na saad nito kay Sara.
Sara exhaled sharply. "He's the prime suspect behind the theft of Calvin's photographs and potentially embezzling from the company."
Natahimik si Risa bago muling nag salita. "I think we have to postpone your plan of sneaking in to his house."
Sara turned sharply to face her, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion. "Anong ibig mong sabihin?"
Risa sighed and handed her cellphone to Sara. As Sara read the name 'Sandro Marcos' displayed on a note, her confusion deepened. "Sandro? What about him?"
Risa bit her lower lip. "I already talked to their finance officer. I made him write the name of the burglar, and that's what he typed."
"Ha? Si Sandro?!"
Tumango si Risa.
"Naniniwala ka? Akala ko ba hindi masamang tao si Sandro?"
"I know, and my opinion is still the same. Sandro would never do that. What I want to point out is, inililigaw tayo ng murderer. It could be someone who's close to Bongbong, someone who's in the company or in the mansion."
"That means they know we're investigating."
Risa nodded again. "Right. So, we have to postpone your plan for now. Kasi if si Unlce Bong talaga ang totoong may kasalanan ng lahat, then he must be waiting for us to attack him so he can do something to us, the same thing he did to Calvin."
Pareho silang natahimik pagkatapos non. Medyo gumugulo ulit ang lahat pero isa lang ang nasisiguro ni Sara. Gusto ng killer na isisi naman kay Sandro ang nakawan sa company.
Kapwa silang nag iisip hanggang sa biglang pumasok sa isip nila ang isang tao.
"Si Martin!" they both exclaimed in unison.
Sara's lips parted as a new thought struck her. "He might be the next one they try to frame..."
