My Secret Admirer is a Gangster (COMPLETED)

Chapter 8

Belle's POV

"Uhm thank you talaga ha. Sa pag gamot ng sugat ko saka sa paghatid sakin. Sorry na rin sa pagtatanong ko." sabi ko kay Vincent ng makita kong nasa tapat na kami ng bahay ko. Hindi naman sya sumagot at binuksan lang nya ang lock ng kotse. Nagulat ako ng bumaba sya.

"Uhm, bakit ka bumaba?"Kainis naman 'to. Kinakabahan na nga ako sa sermon sakin ni daddy tapos sasama pa.

"Let's go." wow! Maka lets go, bahay mo? Nahalata nya siguro na nakatingin lang ako sa kanya. "Hindi naman ako bastos to leave with no explanations to your parents.It's 7 p.m. and I'm sure pagagalitan kanila."Aysus mabait naman pala. Pero wow ha, nanakot pa sya.

Nag doorbell ako at lumabas si Manang."Iha san ka ba nanggaling?Kanina ka pa hinahanap ng mommy at daddy mo. Alalang - alala na sila sayo." Hala ayan na.

"Manang sa loob na lang po natin pag - usapan." Tapos yun nga pumasok na kaming tatlo. Para namang ino observe ni Manang si Vincent kasi ngayon lang ako nagsama ng lalaki sa bahay. Pagpasok ko naman mommy hugged me agad. "Ugh mom, I can't breath." tapos inalis nya yung arms nya sa batok ko. Nakita ko namang nakatingin si daddy samin. He gave me a sharp look.

Uh -oh

"Coleen Isabelle, San ka ba nanggaling? Alam mo bang alas -syete na ng gabi? Pinadaanan kita sa driver mo sa school pero wala ka. Pinapuntahan kita sa tambayan nyo nila Anne but you're not there either. Alalang - alala na kami ng mommy mo sayo. Second day pa lang nakikipag date ka na sa boyfriend mo?" Nagmo - monoluge na si daddy. He's so creepy. But what did he said?

                                                                          
"Daddy he is not my boyfriend." saka heler! date? AKO?makikipag date? never. At isa pa iniisip nya na boyfriend ko tong gangster na 'to? Nagsalita na man si boyf-- I mean si Vincent.

"Good evening po sir. Let me explain why is she late. May nagtangka po kasing i - paddle si Belle sa may playground kanina. Medyo sugatan po sya dahil sa pagkakatali with wires. She said it's her schoolmates before. They were also ex - convicts as I recognize them. Sorry if you didn't saw her around. I took her with me in my condominium to treat her wounds but she slept for an hour that's why it took time for me to take her home." nose - bleed na ko kay Vincent!

"It's okay iho... Thank you for helping our daughter. By the way, what's your name?" yan na, interview na kay daddy.

"I'm Dave Vincent Roxas po." Para namang nabigla ang parents ko sa name nya. Baka may kakilala silang Roxas.

"Oh really? Maybe Jason Roxas is your father. He's actually one of our business partners. Well my name is Albert Miranda and this is my wife Janice. So to thank you for saving our daughter, would you like to have dinner with us?" Ano ba yan ni hindi man lang ako pinansin ni daddy.

"Thanks but no sir. I have to go na rin po kasi eh." GREAT..... I said in my mind, SARCASTICALLY.

"We understand iho. Next time na lang din siguro. Thank you so much talaga for saving our daughter. Sabihin mo lang pag may kailangan ka. We'll try to help you. Regards na rin sa parents mo and to the other members of Dark 5." sabi ni mommy. Pero Dark 5? They know about that?

"Sige po, mauuna na rin po ako. Belle, bye." he said coldly.

"Uhm yeah, thanks again. Bye." then he leave.

"Anak what happened to your hands? Ang daming galos. And yung side ng bibig mo may sugat din. Sino bang mga schoolmate yun?"mom said with a very worried look and tone while checking my wounds. I told them what happened and dad was so mad. Still, they are thankful that the Dark 5 helped me.

Pupunta pa nga dapat si daddy sa presinto para madagdagan ang sintensya nila but I stopped him. I felt pity pa rin naman kayna ate Patricia even though they almost got me killed.

"Coleen are you sure hindi mo boyfriend si Dave?" here we go again. I'm not sure kung nanunukso ba sya o nang iinis.

"Dad for the last time I'm telling you HE.IS.NOT.MY.BOYFRIEND." in- emphasize ko na yon.

"Defensive?" mom said with a teasing tone and chuckled. I just rolled my eyes.

"But mom, why do you know about the Dark 5? Diba po they are goons, I mean... gangsters." I also asked after dinner.

"Medyo close kasi kami sa mga Roxas. You know Andrew? His mom used to be my bestfriend during college days. They were cousins nga din eh. Isa pa, normal na mga bata lang naman yan eh. But everything was changed when that tragedy happened." mom answered. Pero 'bat ayaw pa nilang deretsuhin yung tungkol sa tragedy?

"Iha I know you are curious about the tragedy. Pero kahit parents mo kami at anak ka namin, hindi pa rin namin sasabihin sayo. Sila lang ang may karapatang magkwento ng mga nangyari. But remember Coleen, don't get too attached with them. It might harm you." patuloy ni daddy. At ang galing, nabasa nya yung iniisip ko. Nakakainis lang ayaw nilang sabihin yung tragedy.

It has been three weeks since that horrible day happened.

Wala namang nangyari masyado kaya hindi ko na rin ikwe - kwento.

Ang nakakainis lang the day after that at hanggang ngayon na July na, hindi ako pinapansin ni Vincent. Parang iniiwasan nya nga ako eh. Kakausapin nya lang ako pag may project kami para sa school pero besides dun, wala na.

UGH!

Medyo nabo - bother pa rin ako sa tragedy nila pero I tried to focus on other things. Mamaya may meeting na naman kami sa student council for the plans sa games. Hay, my beloved part. Hindi naman talaga beloved gusto ko lang talaga mag intrams para makapag sports kahit hindi ako magaling.
