NOPI Chapter 59
Sephine's POV
"I know your secret"
*BANG
It felt like something exploded inside my head the moment Ed said those words. I stood rooted to the ground clearly having a hard time to breathe and stand straight.
When Ed saw me panicking, he immediately helped me and led me to the closest seat and made me sit there.
"Let's talk somewhere else, wear your male disguise" sabi ni Ed saka niya binigay sa akin ang kalo at face mask na ginamit ko kanina and I absentmindedly took and wore it
Ed prepared the food and medications he brought and delivered it to Charles room and then told him that I will be leaving and Ed will be making sure that I get back safely.
After that, we went out through the emergency exit, the same way we did earlier.
Hindi ko alam kung saan pupunta si Ed pero ang alam ko lang ay kailangan ko siyang sundan kaya naman sumunod lang ako sakanya.
Parking lot.
Pagkadating naman sa parking lot ay may lumapit na black limousine sa amin at lumabas ang driver nito saka nag-bow kay Ed.
"Leave us for a few minutes" utos ni Ed at agad namang sumunod ang driver at pinagbuksan kami ng pinto kaya naman pumasok na kami dun
Pagkapasok ko ay nagulat ako dahil nandun si Violet na mukhang kanina pa naghihintay.
"Before he confronted you, he asked me first just to make sure" agad niyang sinabi kaya naman I pursed my lips and looked at Ed
"How did you find out?" tanong ko kaya naman kinuha niya ang wine glass na may red wine sa harapan niya at kaswal na umupo't uminom bago ako sinagot
"Considering your closeness to the so-called-'ruthless Falcons' and yours and Josephine's name, it's not that hard to find out. I've had my doubts but I eventually found out after a few months. I am after all, your best friend"
Hindi na ako nagsalita at tumingin na sa labas ng bintana.
"The Falcon Family. Fame, power, wealth, you name it all. They have it. Adored and envied by the masses, feared and looked upon by the elites. A family that's ruthless to their enemies but gentle to their very own. Like what the quote 'blood is thicker than water' suggests, the Falcon family cherishes their family members like a treasure that's so rare, they can't bear to even let it be seen by others. It's not a secret that they hide, so everyone in the industry and even the citizens all knew about that simple fact" sabi ko saka ako ngumiti
"Please bring me back home"
"My mom couldn't sleep without me"
"Please, mister? Can't you?"
The mister was silent while listening to me.
Nakatali ako sa isang maliit na upuan at hindi makagalaw. Nakapikit ang mga mata niya at wala kang makikitang ni isang ekspresyon sa mukha niya. Naka-cross ang mga kamay niya sa harapan niya at halatang hindi siya kung sinu-sino lang katulad ko.
He's also rich and powerful.
But the question is.. Why did he take me?
Am I a bad girl?
Did I do something wrong?
"My dad should be looking for me now, mister. Aren't you going to return me to them? I miss them so muc---"
