Meet The Mafia Queen: The Revelations

xli. missed calls

Vanessa's POV

I DIDN'T try to speak nor utter any single word from my mouth. My mind is still corrupted by his statement a while ago.

Sa tuwing naririnig ko ang boses niya sa isipan ko, nakakaramdam ako ng pag bilis ng tibok ng puso ko.

I bit my lower lip as I took a deep breath here in the living room, when we got home Axel told me that he'll cook something for us and I just nodded.

Halos puro tango at iling nalamang ang nagagawa ko matapos noong nag punta kami sa beach. I guess, I was stunned because of what he said

Axel walks downstais and our eyes met. He changed his clothes into comfortable ones, "What do you want for dinner?"

I shrugged my shoulders "Anything will do." Lumapit siya sa akin at hinapit ang katawan ko.

I tried to look at his eyes directly, "Hmm 'kay. How about Macau cuisines? I know you love those."

My heart was touch because of that, I smiled at him "Alright."

He kissed my forehead that made me froze in my position, "Maghahanda lang ako ng mga sangkap. Change your clothes for the mean time." He mumbles between his kisses

I nodded "Y-yeah."

When he left, I immediately went upstairs and took a bath. While taking a bath, I couldn't help not to smile widely.

I look insane right now because I'm smiling even though I'm alone, but you can't blame me. Axel never failed to make my heart jump in so much joy.

Habang tumatagal, lalo kong napagtatanto kung gaano siya kahalaga sa buhay ko. He's important to my life to the point that I don't want to lose him.

AFTER taking a bath, I put my bathrobe on. I was in the bathroom for almost an hour. Masyado yata akong natuwa kakaisip sa nangyari kanina. I went to his walk-in closet wherein my clothes can be seen there.

While choosing pajamas and other stuffs, I heard something from my back. Hindi ko alam kung saan nanggaling ang tunog na 'yon.

At first, I thought it was nothing that's why I ignored it until I put my pajamas on. Nagpatuloy ito sa pag iingay kaya hinanap ko na ito.

I tried to find it here in the closet ngunit unti unting nawala muli ang tunog. My brows furrowed, I was about to check the bathroom to search for that noise but I heard something from my back.

I followed that noise and I found myself standing in front of the bed side table. Ngayong nahanap ko na kung saan ito nag mumula, doon ko lamang napag alaman kung ano ito.

Axel's phone is ringing.

Who could be the caller? I suddenly got terrified with no reason. I slowly open the drawer and saw Axel's phone.

My right hand is trembling while holding the phone. It's an unknown number. Out of nowhere, I took a deep sigh.

Who's this?

I answer the call without hesitation and placed it on my ear. There's no turning back, I need to know who you are.

I didn't bother to speak, I waited for the caller's voice but unfortunately he ended the call.
