Chapter 9

Allen's Point of View

Agad agad akong pumasok sa room tska ako napa-tingin sa mga baril sa loob, I turned around to see Jake but he's just there standing. Hindi ko na inisip kung anong klaseng tao siya at kung bakit may mga baril siya instead agad akong pumasok sa umiiyak na si Nica.

"Turn off the lights."-Sabi ko kay Jake na agad niya namang ginawa. Umupo ako sa tabi niya at hinawakan ang kamay niya pero naramdaman kong nanginig siya pero hinawakan ko pa din ito.

"It's Allen."-I whispered, umangat ang tingin niya at tinignan ako tska ako agad na niyakap.

"Si Daddy."-She whispered, she's scared. I hugged her and rubbed my hands on her back.

"He cannot touch you sweetie, he's far away from you. Please don't cry."-I whispered. Tumango siya at humiwalay sa pagkakayakap sa akin, I caressed her cheeks and kissed her forehead.

"He's not worth it."-I whispered.

I know her story, I know how scared she will be if you're going to talk about her father, her father is a fucking douchebag! He only wants fame and money!

"Jake."-I called out his name. He turned around and look at me.

"She don't like guns, she don't want seeing other people getting hurt, she's good at fighting. She hate bully. She's nice to her friends, she's gentle to them but she's a bastard when it comes to the people she doesn't know. And she's a girl who will change the life of other people. She's a gorgeous girl and she has a soft with a dark past. Please take good care of her. I guess you have to know that."-I simply said and started to walk again but he talked.

"I know you know me, I know that you know what I do to my girls."-He said and my hand form into a fist but I turn around smiling.

"She's different."-I said and left him. I know Nica very well and I know she's already planning to change Jake. Gustong-gusto niyang binabago ang mga tao, kaya alam kong may plano na siya at hindi ko siya mapipigilan sa gusto niya but I wish her the best, pinagdadasal ko na sana hindi siya masasaktan sa huli.

Nicamaine's Point of View

Nagising ako dahil parang may naka-titig sa akin at tama nga ako, napa-upo ako bigla at napa-yuko. Naalala ko tuloy yung nangyari kanina, siguro ang drama-drama ko nanaman. Nakakainis talaga ang trauma na yun. Once na mangyari ang ganun at kapag napatulog ako, kakalma ako at magiging okay na ulit kinabukasan pero mas okay kung hindi ulit mangyayari yun, napaka-sakit din naman kasi para sa akin kapag nangyayari ang mga ganung bagay.

Nakita kong lumapit siya kaya napa-urong ako. Hello! May baril siya dito at paano nalang kung ratratin ako niyan! Tss!

"Are you scared?"-Mahinahong tanong niya. Pero hindi ko nagawang sumagot. Takot ako sa baril, paanong hindi? Ang dilim na nakaraan ko.

"I won't hurt you baby, trust me please."-He said while staring at me. Trust me? Alam ko namang pang one month lang ang babae, hindi pa ba pananakit ang tawag duon? Pero sino ba ang nag-sabi na masasaktan ako? I am going to change him pa nga diba?

Tumango ako and I hugged him.

"Don't go back okay?"-He asked. Tumango akong muli tska humiwalay sa yakap niya.

"You scared me baby. Kaya dapat mo akong ilibre."-I said giggling, ngumiti siya at tumango tska niya ginulo-gulo ang buhok ko.

I WORE my black V-neck shirt, black fit jeans and a black vans, nilugay ko ang mahaba kong wavy sa dulo na buhok, mahal na mahal ko talaga itong buhok kong to. Bumaba na ako tska pumasok sa kotse ni Jake, nasa driver's seat na siya.
