Nahimatay siya.
She woke up again in a comfortable bed and it smells so much like Frigus. The mattress is soft and gentle on her skin. Halatang mamahalin.
She roam her eyes to search for Frigus, lumabas ito sa walk-in closet nito. Naka-pormal na bihis na para bang may pupuntahang event.
Walang bakas ng dugo. Like what she witness earlier is just a dream.
She tried to sit and she notice that her clothes changed. It's a white satin gown. And her back felt so bare. And her hair and face seems fixed already. Inayusan ba siya habang tulog?
"F-frigus, ano 'to?" Nagtatakang tanong niya at tumayo para tingnan ang kabuohan.
Frigus scanned her with his eyes. He looks satisfied.
"We're going to the King and Queen's birthday." Frigus said calmly.
"H-hindi natin pag-usapan ang nakita ko kanina?"
Frigus looked at her coldly. Napalunok siya. Oo, inaasar niya si Frigus, hindi siya natatakot dito pero sa nasaksihan niya kanina ay parang bumahag ang buntot niya.
He wasn't called ruthless for nothing. He sided with those filthy criminals para hindi sila mapunta sa kamay ng batas kung hindi sa kamay nito mismo. Frigus is the living justice. Because he believe that jail is not enough punishment for those rascals.
Kasi kung kakalabanin niya ang mga criminal na 'yon, makukulong lang. Pero sige sabihin nating may kakayahan siyang ipapatay or ipapakuha but that would be too suspicious. Malalaman na siya ang may kagagawan pero kung magmumukhang kakampi si Frigus, kung mamamatay o mawawala ang kliyente ito ay kaya nitong maghugas kamay.
"What do you want to talk about it?" Frigus asked.
Napalunok siya.
Oo nga. Ano nga bang pag-uusapan nila? Sa nakita niya, may ideya na dapat siya at meron nga. He doesn't have to explain the obvious fact why he did that. But it frightens her. Parang tama na may mali, o mali na may tama.
"Jiana will be safe forever and she's protected now under the Benjamin." Frigus assured her when he though that was bothering her.
"T-thanks.."
"And you will be protected by me, Doctora." Frigus declared.
Napalunok siyang muli.
Kinalma niya ang dibdib niya at lumapit dito. Hindi niya alam paano patutunguhan ang binata. Hindi na kasi sila nag-uusap, parang wala na sila kahit wala naman talagang sila tapos ngayon nasa iisang silid lang sila at dadalhin pa siya nito sa party.
"Uh...bati na ba tayo?" She asked.
Ewan! Sino ba ang may kasalanan sa kanilang dalawa? At bakit ba siya ang nagtatanong?
Frigus seems to notice that she's having chaotic discussion with herself because a ghost smirk form into his lips.
"We fought?" Pagmaang-maangan nito.
She rolled her eyes.
"I want to communicate what I feel for you--"
"You're confessing?" Frigus asked. There's excitement on his voice but was overpower by his intimidating aura.
She rolled her eyes.
"No! What I mean is I just want to be honest with you why I reacted that way last week." She said.
Frigus sighed.
"It's okay, baby. I understand." Frigus dismissed.
Kumunot ang noo niya. Bakit parang hindi benta sa kanya 'yon? Parang may hinanakit at pagtatampo pa rin, eh!

Romansa"Are you a Doctor?" Frigus asked hurriedly. "Y-Yes but---" Tinulak siya nito papasok at isinara ang pinto. He locked it. Napalunok siya. Patuloy siya sa pag-atras dahil patuloy ito sa paglapit sa kanya. "I don't care what kind of doctor are you but...
