Pinagmamasdan ni Mathew si Cassey habang natutulog ito. May benda ito sa noo at mumunting gasgas sa mga braso dulot ng mga tumalsik na bubog mula sa windshield ng kotse nito. He gritted his teeth in anger sa gumawa nito sa kaniya.
He'll make them pay...Sisiguruhin niya iyon.
Banayad niyang hinahaplos ang mukha nito, that way ay mabawasan man lamang ang takot na naramdaman niya kanina.
It's his fault, sana hindi niya ipinag-walang bahala ang mga threat na natanggap niya.
"I'm so sorry sweetheart", he whispered hoarsely before sitting beside her bed as he takes her hand in his.
Pinagsawa niya ang mga mata sa mukha ni Cassey.
Naalala niya ang anak, baka hanapin nito ang Mommy nito, so he took out his phone to call his mother. Nakausap na niya ang yaya nito kanina.
"Hello Ma", I'm sorry to have called you at this hour". It's already past midnight and he's sure his parents are already asleep.
"What's wrong son?". Trust her mother to know instantly that something's wrong.
"Cassey met an accident, I'm at the hospital right now"
"What? How is she? What happened?" Sunod-sunod na tanong ng ina.
"May bumangga sa kotse niya , she lost control and crashed her car at the concrete railing"
"Oh my God. How is she?"
"She's out of danger now. Nailipat na rin siya ng kuwarto".
"Gusto mo bang samahan ka namin?"
"No Ma, kaya ko na ito. I just called to ask you na puntahan si Jace ng maaga bukas. Nagta-tantrums kasi siya kapag hindi nakita ang Mommy niya sa umaga, baka hindi siya mapatigil ng yaya niya."
"Don't worry about Jace, pupuntahan namin siya ng Papa mo ng maagang-maaga."
"Thanks Ma"
"Are you sure kaya mong mag-isa?"
"Yes Ma, don't worry about me", iyon lang at nagpaalam na siya sa ina.
After talking to his mother isinunod naman niyang tawagan si Paul. He know it's past midnight, but what the hell...nagpabaya ang tao nito.
"Hello Mat", agad na sagot ni Paul sa tawag niya. Mukhang inaasahan na nitong tatawag siya anytime.
"What the hell happened? I thought those two are your best agents.. Bakit si Luke lang ang nakasunod kay Cassey and why did he let something like this happens?", he said in control voice. Despite seething in anger, he wouldn't want to disturb Cassey in her sleep.
