Meet The Mafia Queen

li. like a bullet

Vanessa's POV

BASED on what Lennox said, it seems that they've planned this before. I laughed weakly with that.

I left my uncle at the mansion with our guards, I want to make sure that he won't be able to get hurt anymore, especially now that's he's stable.

The moon is up while I'm walking here at the side of our village, I've decided to walk for a while and also . . . I have to talk to him

To clarify things and fix everything.

Third Person's POV

TANGING sapatos at hangin lamang ang nagsisilbing ingay sa labas. Nakasuot lamang ang dalaga coat ngunit hindi padin ito sapat upang mapigilan ang lamig ng simoy ng hangin

Habang naglalakad ito, naramdaman niyang may sumusunod sa kaniya.

Instead of running away, she turned her back. Hindi nga siya nagkamali, andito na nga siya.

"What do you think you're doing?" Halata sa boses ng lalaki ang irita sa tono ng boses nito "It's already evening and it's cold!"

Pinagmasdan lamang ito ng dalaga ngunit hindi 'yon napansin ng lalaki. He took off his black and thick coat and put it on Vanessa's shoulder

After he did that, he sighed "Why are you here, Vanessa?" He seems serious pero hindi natinag si Vanessa

"I want to talk to you,"

Napakunot ang noo ng lalaki dahil sa tono ng boses ng dalaga. Malamig ito at seryoso lamang ang mukha

"Okay," simpleng sagot nito "What do you want to talk about?"

Nginitian nito si Vanessa "Tell me the truth,"

"Who are you?"

He chuckled "Hindi pa ba tayo tapos dito, Vanessa baby?" Tumawa ito ngunit napawi 'yon nang hindi man lang kumibo ang dalaga

"H-hey? May problema ba?" Nag aalalang tanong nito sa dalaga

"You really have the guts to say sweet words to me yet you don't have the guts to tell me your name." She laughed sarcastically

"May problema ba tayo?" Nakakunot ang noo nito "Hey—"

"Sometimes, I feel you don't really care about me." She walk towards him "And you act like you really don't care about me, well let me confess something."

"—I feel the same way. I don't give a damn about you too, Mister whoever you are."

"I care about you, Vanessa!" Hindi na napigilan nitong mapasigaw "Come on, let's not argue about thi—"

"Let go of me!" When he was about to hold her hand, she refused "I don't want to see you anymore, moron!"

"What?" Nakaramdam ng inis ang lalaki, dahil doon nilapitan pa niya lalo si Vanessa "What did you say?"

"I said, I don't want to see you anymore! You're just nothing! You're fucking boring!"

It was like a bullet to him, he wasn't expecting that kind of words from the girl he loves

"Y-you're just," nagsisimula ng manginig ang boses nito, "—you're just h-hungry, right?"

Sa oras na'to, he's wishing that she's just hungry that's why she's acting like this but those wishes did not happen

"Why can't you understand, huh?!" Halata ang galit sa boses nito "I said you're boring! So go away! Don't come near me anymore!"

Sa bawat salita na binibitawan ng dalaga ay mas lalo pang nasasaktan ang lalaki "—you're nothing but a guy who loves to bug me everytime! Who always disturb me! Who always ruin my precious time with others!"

"When I'm with someone, you're getting mad! You know what? I hate you!"

"Stop pestering me, you're damn boring!"

Nang tinalikuran nito ang lalaki ay kaagad nitong hinabol si Vanessa at niyakap mula sa likod "Y-you're lying, baby . . ."

"L-let go!" She tried to remove his arms on hers but even Vanessa is getting weaker every minute, every second and every time she hears hoodie guy's weak voice

"Tell m-me, you're just l-lying . . ." mahina nitong bulong sa dalaga "T-tell me,"

"I am not lying!" Her tears almost fell but his tears? It started to fell the moment he hugged Vanessa from the back

"W-when you said," pahina na ng pahina ang boses nito "When y-you said, you're m-mine. That w-wasn't a lie, r-right?"

Kinagat ni Vanessa ang ibabang labi, "All of i-it was a fuckin' l-lie!" Saad niya habang pinipigilang umiyak

"The m-memories we b-built even if we just met each other? Was that a-also a lie?"

'Please, t-tell me.'

"L-let go of me! You're h-hurting me!"

"Answer m-me, baby." He whispered "Was t-that also a l-lie?"

"You want the t-truth?" Pinilit ni Vanessa na patigasin ang boses niya "Yes! All of the time I spent with you was a lie! Those are just nothing for me!"

Dahil dito, wala ng lakas ang binata upang hawakan ang dalaga. Tuluyan na itong bumitaw kahit gusto pa niya,

Kahit alam niyang masasaktan siya sa mga salitang binibitawan ng taong mahal niya.

"I d-don't want to see you, a-anymore." She sighed while forcing herself not to cry

"—let's just forget every single moment we spent together."
