Umbra Inferis #1: That Possessive Mafia Boss

Chapter 90

Chapter 90

    Tatlong araw ang lumipas.

    Ngunit walang kahit katiting na balita ang dumating sa kanila Iverson. Napakatahimik ng silid na tila'y kahit paghinga nila ay pinipigilan. Wala namang ginagawa ang mga tauhan ni Samson sa kanila puwera na lang sa pagbabantay. Pinapakain at pinapaiinom din sila.

   Pero ang hindi talaga mawala sa isipan nila ay si Louie.

   Naiiyak na si Nyx sa pag-aalala kung ano nang nangyayari sa labas.

    Has she been executed? Or has she been tortured first? It would be so impossible for Samson to leave Louie unscathed and they were correct for that.

    Sa lahat ng apektado sa pagkawala at pagkahiwalay sa kanila ng babae, si Iverson ang pinakamalala. Isang pitik nalang ay tutumba siya. Kaunting kalabit nalang sa kaniya ay sasabog na siya sa sari-saring emosyon na lumulukob ngayon sa puso.

   He felt so hopeless. And it is because his hope isn't with him. His hope was captured by someone.

    At hindi niya alam kung ano ang gagawin niya para makalabas sila sa silid. Parang gusto na lang niyang sabunutan ang sarili dahil sa pakiramdam niyang wala siyang kuwenta.

"Iverson," Ivronsen called his brother pero para itong bingi na hindi narinig ang boses niya. Napabuntong hininga si Ivronsen at nilapitan ang kapatid. Nag-aalala man siya kay Louie ay lalo na sa kapatid niyang walang kahit na anong tugon sa kanila.

  He fished something out of his pocket. It was a golden locket at galing ito kay Louie. Naihulog ito ng babae habang nagbibihis papunta sa party. Kinuha niya ito at itinago. Sa loob ng locket ay ang picture ni Louie noong bata pa siya at isang sulat.

"Lakasan mo ang loob mo, Iverson. Naniniwala akong maililigtas natin si Louie. Huwag kang mawalan ng pag-asa. Louie has never run out of hope at sana ay ganoon ka rin."

      Iverson moved a little, getting the locket from his twin's hand. And the moment he opened it, his eyes and nose became red noticeably. His thumb brushed the picture. Ilang sandali pa ay kinuha niya ang nakasipit na sulat at binasa. The letter was written in Japanese kaya medyo nahirapan siyang basahin ito.

"Dear Future Self,

     In the near future, I want to be a daughter that will protect her family at all cost. I want to protect my lolo, lola, father, mother, kuya and younger brother from all harm.

   I won't care if I die protecting them. It would make me happy evenmore.

   I promised to myself also that I won't lose hope whatever happens in my life and continue to live well. I promise to always have hope for the sake of my loved ones.

   So, to whoever who will read this, don't lose hope and continue to live your life to the fullest. Do it also for your loved ones.

          Truly Yours,

N.L.M. "       

                

"Samson, I want to see Louie," pang-ilang beses na iyong sinabi ng mama ni Louie sa lalaki.

    The news of Nemesis Louie Montero being captured spread throughout the whole clan like a wildfire being fanned up. Marami ang may bayolenteng reaksyon patungkol sa balita and almost all of them wanted the girl to be executed in front of them.

    Samson took all the responsibility upon keeping or should we term it as torturing Louie. Wala itong awa. Walang-wala.

    Samson looked at Cassandra intenly.
