15: Name

"You! Dahil sayo naghiwalay kami ni Cass!" sigaw ni Adam.

"What? Anong kinalaman ko sa relasyon niyo? I'm not even close to you or Cass. So shallow." sigaw ko.

"Kung sana at sinagot mo si Jake kaagad, para magkabalikan na kayo—"

"I alrealdy moved on Adam, enough with our past relationshit. Now can you
please fcking untie me and let me go dahil based on your stupid story ay wala akong kinalaman sainyo ni Cass?!"

"I still have to do one thing before that."

He's so weird and creepy at the same time and once again, very shallow too.

"Ano ba—"

He slapped me so hard and one of his men hit me with a wood.

"STOP!" sigaw ko, hindi ko ininda ang sakit sa harap niya.

Pagkatapos niya ako sampalin, kinuha niya yung phone niya at nag-dial.

"Hello?"

"Jake."

"What now Adam?"

"Your girlfriend is here with me."

"I SAID I AM NOT HIS GIRLDFRIE—" biglang naputol ang sinsabi ko nang suntukin ako nung panget na nanghampas sakin kanina.

"Ano ba?! Masakit na! Paulit-ulit nalang!" sigaw ko.

"Sam?! Where is that place? Sam wait for me baby."

"Ohhh, baby. Same as mine. I'll surely make her suffer." he ended the call.

"And so as you Jake..." dugtong niya.

"Let's go, balikan nalang natin 'to." sabi ni Adam at lumabas na sila ng mga tauhan niya.

Ngayon, anong gagawin ko?

How am I going to escape?

The door opened again and...

"What now Ada— wait, who are you?"

"I've heard everything miss, tara I'll get you out of here."

He went near me and carefully untied my hands and feet.

"Come."

Sinundan ko lang siya, I've never seen this. Anong dinadaanan namin?

and why am I following a stranger?

"Wait, what is this place?" sabi ko.

"Well, that guy just brought you to an abandoned house. Now, just follow me."

"Okay."

Naglalakad lang kami tapos bigla kaming tumigil.

"Hey why did we—"

"Shhhh"

"Oh." I said quietly.

"Are you sure that she could never escape from there?"
"Yes boss, mahigpit yung tali niya."
"Did you close the door?"
"Uhhh, hey Hanz, sinara mo?"
"Ako? Hindi ako nagsara nun?"
"Shit."

That was Adam and his ugly ducklings.

"Miss."

"Ay! Oo sige let's go."

Hindi ko napansin na nasa labas na pala kami sa tapat ng kotse niya.

"Get in." he said.

"I'll just get a taxi, by the way, thank you so much for the help."

"No, I want you safe 'till you get home so just let me drive you home... I won't do anything, I promise."

"Okay."

Sumakay na kami sa kotse niya.

I was thinking of a topic that we could talk about para hindi naman awkward.

"So... how did you get in that place?" sambit ko.

"I was walking by then I heard someone scream." seryosong sabi niya.

Gosh. Ang lakas pala ng boses ko??

"Wag ka ngang masyadong seryoso! Do you know how to smile?" sambit ko.

"Okay sige." then he smiled.

He's so attracti—

Wait. Wait. Wait. Stop it Saaaaaam.

"Stop staring."

"I-i'm not!" sambit ko.

I could not think of any topic anymore, because of what happened a while ago.

"Uhh, saan ba yung bahay niyo?"

"Just go straight then right , yung brown gate."

"Okay."

Finally, nakarating na rin ako sa bahay. For sure nag-aalala na kuya ko.

"Uhm, thank you talaga. I owe you alot."

"No problem. By the way, you are..?"

"Oh I forgot, I'm Samantha, you can call me Sam."

"Okay, Sam."

"And you are..?"

"I'm Edward."
