Gab's POV
"What is the status of Rocky's mission?" Nag-aayos ako ng mga gamit ko sa bahay na nirentahan ko dito sa Cordonia.
"Hindi ka part ng mission... Alam mo ang protocol." Sagot ng Shadow na si Sparrow. Tinawagan ko siya dahil mas madalas ko siyang maging Shadow at parang pakiramdam ko ay kilala ko siya.
"Sparrow... I am in Cordonia..." I said.
"I am not surprised." She replied.
"You knew who Rocky is, that's why you wished me goodluck, don't you?"
Tumawa ito. "Oo naman."
"So ano na? Kamusta na si Jack?"
"Ang kulit mo..." Bumuntong hininga ito.
"She had an invitation at the ball tomorrow. She will be at the palace. Perfect for her mission."
"How did she got an invites?"
"Friends..." Sagot ni Sparrow.
"Did you see any Armanians around?" I asked her.
"There are a lot of tourists right now. I am trying to scan the faces as much as I could. So far, clean record naman ang mga nakikita ko... Although yung iba merong speed violation sa France...mga common violation lang naman."
"Keep me posted."
"You are not in this mission. And I am not Rocky's Shadow. Si Black Widow ang kausap nya. I am only relaying on the information at our data base." Bored na sagot nito.
"Just keep me posted."
"Hay ang kulit mo... Bakit ba ako ang kinukulit mo?"
"Because I have a feeling that I know you."
Natahimik ang nasa kabilang linya.
"Sino ka ba talaga Sparrow?" Tanong ko sa kanya
"You will never know me Gabriel." She replied.
Napatigil ako sa paglilinis ng baril ko.
"Can you say Kuya?"
"Bakit?" tanong nito.
"Basta. Just call me Kuya Gabriel."
Hindi nagsalita ang nasa kabilang linya...
"Sparrow?" tawag ko sakanya."Kuya Gabriel." Sha said. And I replay it over and over in my head hanggang sa maalala ko ang boses.
"God help me sana mali ako..." I felt a cold shiver at my bone.
"Xykie Jen... Malalagot tayo kay Tito Kyle sa ginagawa mo." Nasapo ko ang ulo ko.
Napasinghap siya. Si Xykie ang panganay ni Tito Kyle at Tita Sam.
"Kailan ka pa sumali sa Shadows of the Knights?"
"Kuya... Wag mong sasabihin kay daddy..."
"Una si Jack, ngayon ikaw... Sino pa ang kasali? At huwag mong sabihing wala..."
"I can't break my oath to my org, Kuya. I know you understand that."
"Ang bata mo pa."
"Kuya, tagal mong nawala. Ano akala mo sa akin 12 years old? I'm turning 19 na."
"Kahit na... Nakikita mo lahat ng ginagawa namin..."
"Yup... at minsan nga kumakain pa ako ng pop corn habang nanonood sainyo." She chuckled at her own joke.
"Hay...sumasakit ang ulo ko..." Napadapa na lang ako sa kama.I heard her laugh. "You will live Kuya."
"Balitaan mo ako. Kung hindi, sasabihin ko kay Tito Kyle yang ginagawa mo." Banta ko sa kanya.
"You will not." Tumaas ang boses nito. Napangiti ako. Ofcourse I won't. Ayaw kong sagapin ang galit ni Tito Kyle.
"Oh... but I will. Ako lang ang pinayagan maging Knights... Kayo ni Jack, wala kayong parental permit..." I chuckled when I heard her gasp.
"You are such a devil Kuya... Tama nga bansag sayo..."
"I need info Xykie..."
Bumuntong hininga ulit ito. Nakikita ko ng may masisira na naman na mouse after namin mag-usap."I'll coordinate with you. I'll see what I can do. But this is not your mission." Pag-uulit niya.
"Thanks Sparrow."
And I imagine she rolled her eyes.
"And before I forget... Ate Cailee is in the Palace." She chuckled when I shouted
"Ano?"
"Yun lang...bye Kuya..." and the line went dead.Ano ang ginagawa ni Cailee dito?
I tried to call Xykie again, but another Shadow picks up my call. Baka magtaka na sila kapag pinatransfer ko na namana ng tawag ko. I tried to hack her laptop, but she kept on blocking it... damn kids, they are computer experts. I tried to call her mobile phone but it went straight to voice mail.
"Ah... Xykie... Mamamatay ako sa inyong magpinsan." Naisigaw ko sa sobrang frustrated ko.
Parang uminom ako ng 10 tasang kape sa sobrang kaba... After 7 years makikita ko si Cailee and I don't know which scares me the most... Ang makitang galit pa siya o ang makitang wala na siyang pakialam sa akin.
Ahhh...shit.. Pay back is a bitch.
