NOPI Chapter 43
Mandy's POV
"Either way, I'm not going to let this incident bring shame upon both schools and I definitely do not want to implicate the Falcon family's reputation. So.." hindi pa man natatapos ni Sephine ang sasabihin niya ay naintindihan na kaagad namin
'So... Whatever you do, be sure to keep their mouths shut'
Napangisi na ako kaagad bago niya pa man ituloy ang sasabihin niya. Nang makita niyang naintindihan namin ang gusto niyang iparating ay hindi na siya nagsalita pa.
Sephine may be the youngest, but to tell everyone the truth, she's the most ruthless one of all. Must be from the blood in her veins.
When the rumors said that the women in the Falcon Family are ruthless, it wasn't really just a rumor. It's the truth. Who knew how they found out about it? But oh well, if it protects us in one way or another, it's more than enough to keep the rumors going.
"This meeting is finished" sagot ni Violet saka siya naunang lumabas at agad na kaming sumunod ni Icy
Nang tuluyan kaming makalabas ng meeting room ay hindi na ako nagtaka sa dami ng mga estudyanteng umaabang sa amin.
"Sht. They've come out. Does this mean that they're meetings' over?"
"Sila ang mga seniors ng Falcon young misses, diba? Are they going to do this their own way?"
"Who dared to stand in front of them? Who dared to bully even one of the Falcon cousins?"
"I know right? They're probably asking for a death sentence"
"The Falcon family's women are very ruthless after all"
Nagpigil na ako ng ngiti ng marinig ko ang bulung-bulungan nila saka tinignan si Violet na nasa tabi ko.
"Ruthless, they say? Dapat mag-celebrate yung mga bullies na 'yon dahil walang nagbalak na magsumbong kay Tita Luciana, kung hindi, umuubo ubo na sila ng dugo ngayon. Who doesn't know a thing or two about tycoon families? It's kill or be killed. Compare sa gagagawin natin sa paano ang ginagawa ng mga matatanda, pwede nang sabihing 'normal arguments between children'" sabi ni Icy kaya naman natawa na ako
(Tita Luciana - Sephine's mom)
"That's mean, Icy" sagot ko kaya naman nagbelat siya sa akin
"But joking aside, okay lang kung ininsulto siya't walang pisikal na kaganapan. Pero 'yung mismong kidnapping style na bullying pa ang ginawa nila?" tanong niya saka siya huminga ng malalim kaya naman napakagat ako ng labi ko saka sinilip si Violet
"Narinig ko na umiyak siya ng napakatagal nang makagising siya after ng incident" bulong ko kaya naman bumugtong hininga rin siya saka isinara ang kamao niya
"She remembered the kidnapping incident ten years ago," sagot niya kaya naman tumahimik na ako
The incident that changed her whole life. The incident she didn't want to remember and wanted to forget.
It may be a lowly and cheap prank to those bullies, but to us, it was much more than that.
Just thinking about how Sephine felt when she thought those bullies were after her life again, I clenched my fists.
Nahulog siya sa hagdan, nagkaroon ng napakaraming pasa at gasgas and worse of all, her trauma and her memories' were triggered.
"Should I inform them now?" tanong ko kaya naman agad na siyang tumango habang si Violet nama'y napasuklay sa buhok niya gamit ang mga kanang kamay niya
