Kabanata 10 - A crazy morning
Hunter Sylverio POV
HINDI ko alintana ang malamig na hanging dumadampi sa balat ko. I was here in the dark alley waiting for my brother to arrive.
Kanina nakatanggap ako ng tawag kay Lennox na pinasok ni Trent si Hailey sa apartment unit nito. Lalong kumuyom ang mga palad ko. Alam ko, pinaglalaruan ako ng boss ng Red Dragons dahil nalaman nito ang kahinaan ko. Gusto ko ng matapos ito. I want to leave a peaceful life now with Hailey.
As a mafia boss, the night for me is dangerous. Most people heard of me as cold, heartless, beast and ruthless man that I put my words as rules and never listens to no one but myself. They see me as an egoistic person with so much pride. Hindi iyon totoo, hindi ko lang alam kung paano ipapakita yung totoong nararamdaman ko.
Dumiretso ang tingin ko sa blue jaguar ni Lennox na pumarada sa harap ng mansion. Bumaba ito, tinungo ang kinatatayuan ko at yumuko sa akin upang magbigay galang hindi bilang nakakatandang kapatid kundi bilang leader ng Beehive.
Natanaw ko si Hailey na nakatulog na sa sasakyan. She's really a sleeping beauty. Seeing her like this make my heart melt.
"A few things came up back there. That asshole escaped.", saad ni Lennox. "That Trent will pay for hurting Young Miss.", dugtong pa niya na mas lalong tumalim yung mga mata niya.
"I'll take care of that bastard. He can ruin my business but I won't forgive him for hurting what's mine.", sabi ko habang dumako uli yung paningin ko sa nahihimbing na si Hailey.
Pagkasabi ko non, binuhat ko si Hailey into a bridal style. Pinunta ko siya sa guest room. Dahan-dahan ko siyang inihiga sa kama. At bago ako umalis, hinalikan ko yung noo niya.
Napasandal ako sa brick wall ng kwarto habang tinititigan siya. I'm a man who doesn't lose my focus. Na kahit malagay sa alanganin ang buhay ko aayusin at aayusin ko parin ang problema sa negosyo at sa Beehive. Hindi ako nagpa-panic, hindi natatakot, although aminado akong mabilis akong magalit. I like to plan everything out very carefully. Ayaw ko ng pumapalpak. In other words, ayaw ko ng distraction sa trabaho ko.
Maybe this qualities of mine that's why my Mom pushes me to get married. But because of that promise I made with my mother and a deal with this woman.... I've been losing my focus. I'm not paying attention at meetings anymore dahil nag-aalala ako kay Hailey. I'm falling behind both of our business and the Beehive organization. Even the fights when I'm facing the enemy, someone of the members of the family will come to save my ass.
Parang hindi na ako yung dati. I don't know what's happening to me! Hindi ko alam kung paano ito nagsimula. My heart is going crazy!
No! Kailangan kong kumalma. Kailan ba nagsimulang makadama ako ng takot at pag-aalinlangan?
Now that, think of it, my chest keeps pounding lately. Not to mention I'm getting this strange feeling. It consumes me at nababaliw na ako.
Muli kong tiningnan si Hailey. Whenever I see her, my chest hurts more. She hated me so much and that's stings my heart. Nang makita ko siyang ngumingiti at tumatawa kay Lennox, I felt so much rage and envy. Bakit hindi niya kayang ngumiti sa akin? Am I really that beast to her?
Tuwing pumipikit ako, her image pops in my head. Ngayon lang ako nagkaroon ng ganito kalaking problema sa buhay ko!
Her coldness been hurting my chest. And that stupid rule. Ano bang iniisip ko ng mga panahong iyon? I'm such a stupid jerk. Isa pa iyong deal na nilikha ko para lang pumayag siyang pakasalan ako. Kailangan pa ba ng deal para pumayag siyang pakasalan ako?
