I woke up in the middle of the night. I grabbed my phone to check the time. It's just quarter to one in the morning. Pipikit na sana ako ulit ng may marinig akong maliliit na boses na tila nag-uusap. Naupo ako at pinakiramdaman ang paligid. Nanggagaling ang mga boses sa labas.
I stood up and walked towards the window. Sumilip ako sa labas and I saw Tito Franco and few of his men. Nagkukumpulan sila at base sa naririnig ko ay tila galit si Tito Franco at mukhang nangsisita.
"Ano po ang gagawin sa mga ito, boss?" I heard one of his men asked. Medyo tumaas ang boses nito kaya malinaw kong narinig.
"Idispatsa niyo ang mga yan. Siguruhin niyo na wala ng bakas ng mga kalat bukas ng umaga." Tito Franco's voice was authorative and dangerous.
The armed men lifted something on the floor. Saka ko lang malinaw na nakita kung ano ang pinagkukumpulan nila.
"Oh my God!" I gasped loud when I saw bodies soaked with their own blood. Hindi ako pwedeng magkamali, sila ang mga tauhan ni Tito Franco na tumatambay sa baba ng kwarto ko.
"Princess! What are you doing there?!"
I never even bothered looking at Tito Franco. My whole body is shaking. Patay na ba sila? Pinasok ba ang mansyon ng masasamang tao?
"Oh my God," were the only words I could utter.
"Get back to your bed!"
"A-are they dead?" I mindlessly pointed my trembling finger at the bodies. I hate violence. And seeing human bodies in their awful state is a total nightmare for me.
"Oh damn!" Tito Franco cursed. Humarap siya ulit sa mga tauhan. "Ano pa ang hinihintay niyo? Get those dirts out of my princess' sight! You're frightening her!"
Nagmamadaling pumasok siya ng mansyon. Ang mga tauhan naman ay ipinagpatuloy ang ginagawa. They lifted the bodies and walked towards the gate. Gusto kung tanungin kung saan nila iyon dadalhin pero hindi ko magawa. Even my lips are trembling. God, there are four unconscious bodies! Itatapon na lang ba nila ang mga iyon ng basta-basta? Wait, are they even sure that those people are lifeless?
Bumukas ang pinto at nagmamadaling lumapit sakin si Tito Franco. He hugged me tight. "I'm so sorry, princess. You shouldn't have seen that. Are you afraid? Oh damn! You're trembling."
I looked at him. "Tito, you should bring them to the h-hospital."
"Oh no, princess, mga patay na sila."
"But how sure are you? Kawawa naman sila."
"Hinampas ang mga ulo nila sa pader. Their heads are destroyed. There are blood stains everywhere. Wala na akong magagawa, princess."
"What happened, Tito? Kilala ko sila, you assigned them to guard me, right? Kawawa naman po sila," a small whisper came out of my trembling lips.
"Yah, I know, baby. Naaawa rin ako sa sinapit nila. They did nothing but to be loyal men to us. Napakasama ng taong gumawa nito sa kanila."
Nag-angat ako ng tingin sa kanya. "W-who did this to them?"
Inalalayan ako ni Tito Franco papunta sa kama at iniupo. Matigas ang anyo niya na humarap sakin. "You know that I have lots of enemies in my line of business, right princess? Kaya maraming nagbabantay dito sa mansyon because I want to secure your safety. At kanina, there is someone who attempted to sneaked in your room. Mabuti na lang at naging maagap ang mga tauhan. Maybe he got caught before he could get in here. Wala bang may umaali-aligid sayo lately?"
