Marrying Gray (VIB SERIES # 2)

Kabanata 41

"I'm sorry, Mr. Alonzo Escamento, traffic got me."

Hindi maipaliwanag ni Scarlet ang sakit na naramdaman ng makita ang binata na nakipagkamayan sa isang matandang negosyante.

Alonzo Escamento...

Naalala ni Scarlet ang sinabi ni Jazz na Alonzo Escamento.

"Alonzo Escamento is the father of Drina Escamento. They're one of the most influential and famous personalities in Underground business." Narinig pa nya ang boses ni Jazz habang sinasabi ang mga katagang yun.

"If it's not the dominant, Gray Cantellon." Tumatawang sabi ng matanda kay Gray habang may lalaking nag lahad ng dalawang suit case sa harap nila.

Napakagat labi si Scarlet upang pigilan ang kanyang hikbi.

She asked him many times about that drug case but he just lied. So stupid of her to believe in him. So stupid of fucking believing in his lies.

Walang lakas at mahina syang napaupo sa sahig. Tahimik na bumuhos ang kanyang luha habang punong puno ng hinanakit ang kanyang dibdib. Hindi nya akalain na ang pagtitiwala nya ng sobra sa salita ni Gray ay hahantong lamang sa ganito.

"Is that your new experiment of the Drugs? " Rinig nya ang tinig ng matanda na tinatanong si Gray.

"Yes, and we had it sure and tested." Mas lalo syang mariin na napapikit ng marinig ang tinig na iyon ni Gray.

Bakit?

She did nothing wrong in this god damn life. She never betray her father's decision even if it already controls her life. She tried to be good. She's faithful to Gray but why did he lie?!

Hindi isang beses nya itong tinanong. Nagsinungaling ito.

Tiningnan nya ang lamesa na may nakabukas na suit case at nakita nya roon ang iilang pakete ng droga. Iba ang kulay niyon at tila hindi pangkaraniwan. Imbis na puti ay ibang kulay iyon.

Ang lahat ng tao roon ay nakapukos sa dalawang tao na nagsasalita na si Alonzo at Gray.

Sumandal sya sa pader and carresed the side of her heart, that is suffering too much pain because of what she knew. Kaya pala may magazine ng baril sa bahay.

Gray you betrayed me.... isip nya.

Para syang nawawalan ng lakas dahil sa nalaman .

Dahan dahan syang tumayo at lumabas ng masiguradong walang nakakita sakanya.

Agad nyang pinindot ang elevator at laking pasalamat nya ng bumukas iyon ngunit nanigas rin sya ng makita kung sino ang taong nasa loob niyon.

"S-scarlet..."

Her eyes got teared up, ano pa nga ba ang malalaman nya sa araw na ito.

"Sebastian...," Mapait syang ngumiti. What a cruel world she have.

All this time people around her are playing well and she's the dumb one. From Gray... The drugs .... and.... Sebastian...

Lalagpasan nya sana ito ngunit hinawakan nito ang braso nya.

"Scarlet wait..." Tumigil sya at hindi man lang nilingon si Sebastian.

"Did you go there?" Tila nalasahan nya ang pait sa kanyang bibig ng dahil sa tanong na iyon.

Hindi na sya nagulat ng hilahin sya ni Sebastian at pinaharap sya dito.

"Answer me, Scarlet. Did you fucking witnessed that darn transaction?!" Mariin ang tanong na iyon ni Sebastian.

So her instincts was right again. Sebastian is involved in that drug syndicate. Damn it, the world is really playing with her and she's the one who's a dumb losser. She didn't even notice this with Sebastian when they're were still on.

Napatawa sya na naging dahilan upang mapatigtig si Sebastian sakanya.

"Wow.... So I'm right, you're one of them." Nginitian nya itong ng mapait.

He's husband is the one who's ruling the underground society and Here's Sebastian, He's one of them.

"Scarlet, I'm----" She cut Sebastian off

"So stupid of me, how many of you guys betrayed me!" She hope the sarcasm hide it selfs.

Tumulo ang isang luha sakanyang pisngi kaya agad nya iyong pinahid.

"You know what Seb, I knew you as one of my most trusted person but then I didn't expected of you betraying me by lying." Tumawa ako ulit ng Mapait.

I can feel the tears running in my cheeks but i didn't mind it at all.

"Scar--"

"Let go of me," Iwinakli ko ang kamay nito at agad itong nilampasan at pumasok ako sa elevator.

Agad kong kinuha ang telepono ko at tinawagan si Jazz.

"J-jazz..." My voice broke.

"Hey, Are you crying Scar?" Rinig nya ang pag-alala sa boses ni Jazz.

"J-jazz they betrayed me... Jazz, I want to go away from here... Take me away..." I can't hear my voice clearly because of my sobs.

"Where are you?" Rinig nya ang boses ni jazz at ang makina ng kotse

"Jazz, I'll text you the address .Please take me away, Jazzlyn.... I... I need someone right now." Walang lakas nyang sabi.

God help me. I hate him, he hurted me. They betrayed me.
