Chapter 36: Gang

Chapter 36 |

Gang

Binuksan namin ang pinto. Sobrang lakas ng kabog ng puso ko. Tumambad samin ni Colleen si Radleigh. Malamig niyang tinitingnan si Colleen na para bang nag uusap sila sa isipan nilang dalawa. Hanggang sa napansin narin niya na kasama din ako ni Colleen. Bumaba ang tingin niya akin and his hand flew up to cover his face as he looked back at Colleen.

Tumakbo si Colleen papasok sa loob. Pumunta siya doon sa sahig. Nakita ko doon na nakaupo si Yeshua. Mukhang nag aalala ang mukha ni Colleen habang pinagmamasdan si Yeshua ngayon.

"Why is she here?" Umigting ang kanyang panga.

"How am I supposed to know? I told her to go home." Napabuntong hininga siya. "But yeah, I didn't noticed. She followed me until I got here. Gusto niya talagang malaman."

"Well obviously she's here!" Radleigh snapped.

Sumilip ako sa loob ng base. Napamura ng malutong si Colleen ng natapilok ito. Siguro ay hindi mabuhat si Yeshua. And he was trying to help him because he was half-unconscious.

And bleeding.

Hindi basta maliit na sugat ang tinutukoy ko. Pero dumudurugo din ang kanyang ilong ngayon. Habang ang kamay niya ay pinipisil ang kanyang balikat—covered with blood. He was beaten up and bruised. He was so out of it that he needed Colleen to help him.

Bumaling ako kay Radleigh. Napaawang ang bibig ko dahil kahit siya ay parang may tinatago sakin. Tinatakpan niya ang malaking pasa sa kanyang panga. The both of them looked like they were run over, repeatedly, like the car kept on going back and forth on them. Looking away, Radleigh helped Colleen out with carrying Yeshua to the sofa.

"I...uh—you're bleeding!" Iyon lang ang lumabas sa bibig ko.

Hindi ko naman masisi ang sarili ko. Hindi ko alam kung anong i-rereact ko ngayon. Bakit ganoon ang itsura ni Yeshua at Radleigh? Gusto kong tumakbo ng pabalik-balik because I'm freaking out! No, I'm better than that.

That's what I did next.

"Anong nangyari? This is a gang thing, isn't it? Habang nasa fair kami ni Colleen. Kayong dalawa naman ay may ginagawa tungkol sa gang stuff and fighting. And now look at you! Pero seryoso kailangan dalhin na kayo—"

"No hospitals," Radleigh said, helping Yeshua sit on the sofa. "They're going to ask too many questions."

"Pero alam mo ba yung iba pa nilang ginagawa? Nang gagamot sila ng tao!"

"Mag tatanong parin sila ng maraming tanong." He gritted his teeth, na para bang naiirita siya sa sinasabi ko.

"Well, that's too bad. Because I'm going to ask just as many," I said before looking at Yeshua. "But right now, we need to help him!"

Marahan kong hinawi ang kamay ni Yeshua sa kanyang balikat. Which he was using to handle the pain and press it to try to stop the bleeding. Napapikit siya sa sakit at nakita ko rin ang natuyong dugo sa kanyang kamay. Tiningnan ko yung sugat niya and did a near double take. You can see it through his shirt. His broad shoulder was hurt on both sides, at the back it looked like some knife mark while at the front...

"Is that a freaking bullet hole?" My eyebrows furrowed.

"I-It's just a flesh wound," Colleen assured me.

Yeshua just groaned in agreement, or in pain or maybe both.

"Oh yeah, like that makes it any better," I said sarcastically.

"Two. Two of them," Yeshua tried to explain but it ended up being a mess. "Same face. One gun and one knife."

Umiling si Radleigh. "He's in shock. He lost a lot of blood. The guy probably played dirty. He used a gun and knife."
