Chapter 48 : Masquerade Party (PART 2)
“Why are you quiet right now, huh?” Yuuto asked in the middle of our godforsaken dance.
“Wala,” tanging sagot ko.
“Youʼre in a hurry earlier, so tell me... Why are you here? Are you with Hiroaki?” ngumisi si Yuuto. I almost flinch when I felt someone held my waist and pulled me away from Yuuto gently.
“Yes, I am with her. What the fuck are you doing here, Yuuto?” seryosong tanong ni Nol. Hindi naman naalis ang ngisi sa labi ni Yuuto at nagpamulsa.
“Thereʼs a transaction happening right now. We are going to kill the men of Rado Mafia.” casual na sagot ni Yuuto na para bang wala lang iyon sa kanya.
“Weʼre leaving,” ani Nol at hinawakan ako sa braso.
“Goodbye,” sabi ni Yuuto habang nakatingin sa akin.
Tuluyan akong hinila ni Nol. Nilingon ko ang lugar kung saan ko nakita si Dad kanina pero wala na siya roon. Heʼs invited too? Lumabas kami ng function hall.
“What the hell, Keena! I told you not to leave our side—”
“I did not! Yuuto suddenly grabbed me!” singhal ko sa kanya.
“Why you didnʼt called me?”
Saglit akong natamik. “I... I saw someone...” utal kong sagot.
“Who?” he asked. Now he looks curious.
I suddenly heard Henryʼs voice on the earpiece. “Where are you guys? Nandito kami sa parking lot.”
“Weʼre coming, whatʼs the situation there?”
“Theyʼre talking. Hindi namin gaanong marinig so hurry up.”
Nol grabbed my arm and dragged me to the elevator. Ilang saglit pa ay nakarating kami sa parking lot ng hotel.
“Nol, can you please slow the fuck down? Iʼm wearing heels, hello!” I retorted.
“We canʼt,”
I frowned. Tumigil kami sa paglalakad nang makita sina Winston na nagtatago sa isang pader.
May dalawang grupo roon na nag-uusap. Nasa pagitan nila ang mga kahon. May iilang mga nakalabas na baril doon na hindi ko matukoy kung anoʼng klase. “Seventy million,” sabi ng isang lalaki na kasama sa mga nasa gawing kanan.
Naglapag ang isa pang lalaki na kasama naman sa gawing kaliwa ng mga suitcases. “Seventy million in exchange for those weapons,” sabi ng lalaki.
“Sure,”
“But you canʼt fool us,”
“This is the start,” bulong ni Winston.
“This is the Rado Mafia,” bulong naman ni Nol at tinuro ang grupo na nasa gawing kanan.
“How about the left one?” I asked.
“I have no idea,”
“You shouldʼve asked Yuuto earlier kung sino ang mga mafia na may transaction ngayon.” muli kong bulong.
“Sshh,” Henry hissed.
“Seventy million ang binibigay namin pero hindi high class na mga baril ang nasa laman ng mga box na 'yan.” sabi ng pinakamatangkad na lalaki sa kaliwang grupo.
“Are you kidding me? High class ang mga iyan.” sagot naman ng isa mula sa Rado mafia.
“We will give you more than seventy million if you will give us the high class weapons.”
