Game Of Love

JAY-B'S POV:

I can really recall that town fiesta back in our province, I could really still remember that.

←→←→♧←→←→

Early Wednesday1 morning, I woke up as usual around 7:00 am, and I notice that dad's relatives came so does my cousins, especially Will. What a nightmare...

I get out from my bed, washed up and put myself some clothes and then, wore my glasses, but something was missing, I looked myself again in the mirror and my necklace was missing, I looked over my drawers, table and even my bag. I started to panic, but in my mind, I stayed calm.

Calming myself down, the door suddenly opened.

"THERE'S MY FAVORITE UNCLE!!'" Will suddenly yelled happily and made me panic. I gave him a stern look.

"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE?!"

"Come on, Jay. It's town fiesta and we have our reunion, for short, Diamond Group Reunion and also family reunion."

"Just give me a minute. I'll be downstairs."

"But your mom's calling you for like 30 minutes from now."

I suddenly froze when he said the word mom, I quickly went downstairs dragging Will down as my cousins were all helping.

"What took you so long upstairs, young man?" Mom said while washing the meat.
"I, uh.. Clean up my room, if someone wants to sleep next to me tonight." I replied and mom just looked at me and continued to wash the meat.
"Hey, cousin! Help us out here with the sack of coal. Double time please!" Damien said and for note, he's the oldest among us. With that, I helped out and carried the sack going at the backyard, dad and my uncle were busy, butchering the pig while my grandparents were coating the fish with breading and two cousins, Janine and Vivien, peels the onions and tomatoes. Without my Triskelion, I'm not like this.

"Jay-B! Can you ran an errand?" Mom called from the kitchen as I went to get my motor key and took the paper and money from mom as I went off to get the errand.

While driving, I passed by En's house and notice that our friend Ronnie is busy with his family cooking for the town fiesta this coming week. He saw me and greeted me.

"Heya buddy! Happy fiesta!"

"Same to you, bro."

"Off to somewhere?"

"Uh, yeah, running an errand and.."

"Where's your necklace?!"

"About that necklace... I cannot find it anywhere.."

"En will be furious if she finds about it."

"I know that. If she finds out... It'll be a World War 4.. I better go.."

With that, I went ahead and get the things needed for cooking. While buying some ingredients, En was buying the same, I surprised her with a smile and she smiled back.

"Makipista sa amin.."

"Sige. Basta may leche flan.."

"Geh. Sasabihin ko kay mama. Para makapunta ka."

"Wait. Where's your Triskelion?"

Shoot. She notice it, I quickly cleared my throat and used my Killer Eyes and my killer smile which made her blush all of a sudden.

"I better go."

"Sure. Wait, I'll take you ride home." I told her and gave my cap to her and rode going home. When i took her home, Ronnie approached us as he told En something which made me rev up fast going home.

EN'S POV:

"What's with Jay-B?" I asked Ronnie carrying the bags that I bought, "He's just in a hurry to get back the things he bought that his mom told to." Ronnie replied. However, something's really missing in Jay-B's appearance as if his Triskelion is always around his neck but right now, he wasn't wearing it.

I message him, and waited for him to reply. Afterwards, he replied me with emojis which made me annoyed and took a deep breath to chat him again one last time, however, he went offline. Maybe, he's busy helping out...

JAY-B'S POV:

I arrived home and gave the things that mom needed, I went again to my room as I laymyself down on my bed and saw my phone that I received some messages from En through Messenger, I sighed and replied her with emojis, but, she keeps on chatting, with that, I went offline and helped out to dad and my cousins at the backyard.

AROUND NOON....

The weather was cloudy and a bit windy, by that me and Damien set up another fireplace for another the large wok that gramps will use to cook pancit. I felt sweat ran down to my face down to my body, while preparing the coal that dad told me to burn it up for the barbeque.

"Papa, the coal is already burning. You can use it now.."

"Thanks Jay. You and Will rent a videoke box and some tents for tomorrow's fiesta and family reunion."

"Ah, sure, papa.."

I took Will with me while he was eating the onion rings near the table that had prepared few minutes ago, used the van to get the videoke box.

While I was signing up as a reservation for the videoke box, something was pinching my arm, I ignore it and continued to talk to the owner, then another pinching made me glance at Will.

WILL'S POV:

I kept nudging Jay-B but he was ignoring me and I nudged him deeply by his stomach which made him annoyed.

"Why are you nudging me?"

"I think... I saw your... necklace..."

"My necklace?! Where?!"

"I saw it at the nearby store and it's on sale..."

Jay-B quickly went out from the store as he went to get back his necklace, leaving me with the videoke box.

JAY-B'S POV:

When Will told me that he saw my Triskelion, I quickly left the renting store and tried to get the necklace from being bought by others. I went to the store and ask the store owner how much did he got that necklace.

"Hey! How much did your customer bought that necklace?!"

"500"

"500 pesos?!"

"Yeah. Instead 500 he gave me 1,000 pesos."

"Sorry dude, that's the last necklace."

"LOOK PAL! THAT NECKLACE IS WORTH SOMETHING MORE THAN ANYTHING!! AND THAT NECKLACE BELONGS TO ME!! WHERE THE HELL DID YOU GET THAT?!"

"Chill bro.. A woman sold me that and she said that it'll bring fortune to someone else."

"Fortune my ass! Johanne, I'll leave this to you."

"Alright! Time to break some bones!"

With that he took care of it, while I borrowed Johanne's bike and pedal up fastly to follow the buyer who bought my Triskelion, I jumped over the car of the buyer and saw me.

"Wait?! You're my Dad's rival?! Mr. Cavanaugh?!"

"Actually, it's Mr. Cavanaugh's junior, Skyler Cavanaugh."

"Skyler? The owner of Terranova?!"

"Hell yes.."

He swerved up his car to shove me away but I tighten up my grip and try to reach the Triskelion from the windshield. But, he used a dagger and stabbed it near my  pulse which made me  let go on top of his car, stumbling over the sidewalk.

Damn, my Triskelion...

The next thing, I found out that I was laying down on the couch.

"Pambirhirang patis!! Bakit ka nag stunt over sa kotse?!"

Wait that voice... Wendy?
