Love Me Like You Do

Hinihingal syang dumating sa safe house niya. She's full of pawis. She just came back from running. She then goes inside her bathroom. She takes her clothes off and examined her right side stomach. Her stitches are dry and very close to healing. Her bruises are gone and other small scratches are gone. She knows it's time to go back to reality.

After her shower. She puts on her all white with pink highlight vigilant uniform. She left money for Manang enough to cover till she gets back. She double checks her bike to see if there's anymore traces of blood or anything. Then, she takes out her BMW all white bike. She's going to leave the black bugati there to be on the safe side. She's good to go.

She knows na pinag hahanap sya ng mga naka encounter nya. So she took the province route rather than the city route. But she didn't know na ang daan na dinadaan niyang province is province ni Richard and Nadine. She got stuck in traffic because of the fiesta parade. She parked her bike on the side of the road to watch the parade.

"Kuya! Dito na lang tayo sa limlim!" Sabi ni Nadine. "Here. Dito sa ilalim ng puno." Hila nya sa kuya nya.

"Fine." He said. "Ewan ko ba kung bakit mo hilig manuod ng parade!"

"To see the celebrities!"

"Wala—" nakita niya ang isang taong naka puti na naka sakay sa bike. She took her helmet off. Her long hair fell along the side and the wind blew it. She ran through her fingers to her hair to fix it. Then she watched the parade with smile. "Sarah?" Napa bulong sya.

Tuwang tuwa naman si Sarah sa parade lalo na sa mga bata nag sasayawan. One of the little boy handed her a pink carnation flower. She bent down to gave him a kiss on the cheek. Kinilig ang bata at tawa sya. She she got back up her eyes locked on Richard. Her smile quickly disappeared. She saw Richard lingon ng lingon and was going towards her. But pinipiit sya ni Nadine. A huge float came. It was her chance to get out.

Richard ran across the street looking for her. But she couldn't be found anymore. Nadine followed him. "Kuya baka namamalik mata ka lang. She's out of the country!" Hinilila nya ang kuya nya pabalik.

"Hindi ako na mamalikmata. Nag tinginan pa nga kami eh!" He explained. "She's wearing all white with pink sa side ng jacket nya. Tapos yun bike nya puti. Tapos ang ganda nya. Ang ganda nya!"

Nadine rolled her eyes at her kuya. "Lust lang yan Kuya."

She arrived quietly at her house. She thanks her bike that is quite when ridden. She parked her bike next to her other five different bikes and four different cars that are parked sa secret garage sa ilalim bahay nya. Nandoon din ang mga weapons na ginagamit nya on a mission. Her whole wardrobe is also stored there.

"Welcome back Ms. Reid." Sabi ng robotic overvoice na si Sandy.

"Thanks, Sandy." She replied while changing her clothes. "Sandy update me on everything that's happened."

"Will do Ms. Reid." Sandy said. And within minutes all the updates that Sarah wants to know is on her computer.

She grabs water bottle from the fridge and starts to read. She's scanning through pictures, surveillance cameras, notes, police reports and everything that happened even on her business. "Sandy, show me all the files of my brother."

"Right away Ms. Reid."

She's scanning through all what James had been doing. Napangiti sya ng makita niya si James na sobrang busy. She's watching the surveillance camera sa office nya. Natataranta si James sa mga kailangan niyang i-approved. Then she saw how he handled the board meeting with Alex. She was proud.
