Chapter 22 - Saving Czarina

Chapter 22
Saving Czarina
.
Jenan and Henrik shared the same glance, he was smiling at her, while she was staring him like she's studying him or what.

He ready his engine nang tumalikod na si Jenan para ituloy ang pagpasok sa ski site. He bit his lip as he remembered the heated night they shared. Napailing na lamang siya at napabuntong hininga.

"You stupid, Henrik," bulong niya sa sarili and think about his fiance, Daniella.

Wala sa plano niyang mapagawi sa kanan ang mga mata niya, pero napakunot ang noo niya dahil sa pagtataka. Someone was hiding behind a pine tree na para bang nahihirapan sa kung anong bagay ang binubuo niya. Out of his curiosity he killed his engine and went out of his car para na rin sana tulungan ang mamang medyo hirap. But when the man finished assembling something, Henrik glued his feet outside his car when he realizes that the man was holding a sniper gun. When he try to see where that gun was pointed, his eyes widened when he saw it was meant for the last person in line to enter the site, for Jenan.

Binalik niya ang tingin niya sa lalaki and he's now trying to pull his trigger, trying to aim for Jenan.

No, not Jenan!

"Jenan, dapa!"

Napamura siya nang kasunod sa sinabi niya ang paglipad ng bala patungong entrance. People outside got panicked and he couldn't see Jenan among them.

He curse again and let another curse when the man he's watching earlier is now nowhere to be found.

Nagmadali siyang tumakbo patungong entrance and he tried to find Jenan and when he saw her standing next the security guard , he immediately go near her.

By the way her eyes looks, he already know that she's now angry.

"Are you hurt?" Henrik asked her but she did not seem to have care about his question, instead she asked him if who the hell just tried to hit her.

"Jenan, are you hurt?" ulit ni Henrik na ngayon ay gamit na ang mala-otoridad niyang boses.

Jenan just blinked her eyes like she's wondering or something. When she did not say anything ay tiningyan ni Henrik kung may butas sanhi ng bala ba ang suot niyang brown leather jacket o wala.

"I'm fine," ani Jenan when she got her senses back.

"Kailangan kong mahanap si Czarina," dagdag pa nito na tinanguan naman ni Henrik.

"I'll help you."

Nag-isip muna siya saglit but when she realizes that the site was huge at aabutin siya ng siyam-siyam kung siya lang mag-isa ang maghahanap.

"Tandaan mo ang itsura niya. When you see her first, call me," sabi ni Jenan sabay pakita ng tanging larawan ni Czarina na meron siya habang naglalakad na sila ni Henrik sa loob pa ng building kung saan may nagbebenta o nagpaparenta ng mga gamit na magagamit sa pag-ski.

They where about to split when Jenan's phone rang from the same number that Czarina used earlier.

From her voice, Jenan already knew that she was so frightened from something. When they heard a gunshot from the area where people usually do their ski ay nataranta siya.

She's afraid that her subject would be hurt.

"Czarina are you still there?" Jenan asked.

People are now panicking because of the sudden gunshots na nasundan pa ng iilang mga putok. Her heart is now beating so fast and she could not help herself but to feel a little panick on her own.

"Czarina!"

Hindi niya alam kung matutuwa ba siya o mababagabag nang marinig niya ang mga hikbi nito pero mas pinili niya ang matuwa dahil buhay pa ito pero hindi niya maiwasang mabagabag dahil na rin sa sitwasyon ngayon.
