"Gusto mong sumama sa loob?" tanong ni Lucas nang marating namin ang pintuan ni Leo.
"Hindi na. Magkaaway kami nun" tugon ko.
Tatalikuran ko na sana siya nang hawakan niya ang braso ko.
"You have to know this" Sabi niya bago ako hinatak sa loob.
Leo looked so shocked nang makita kami ni Lucas pero agad naman niyang binawi ito.
"Why did you take that woman here?" cold niyang tanong.
Tinignan naman ako ni Lucas bago tumingin kay Leo.
"I think she needs to know about this" Sabi ni Lucas. Nakita ko ang nakakainsultong pagngisi ni Leo.
"For what? I'm sure he will defend his father and his brother after we tell her about this" Sabi ni Leo.
"It's up to her." tugon naman ni Lucas.
"What are you talking about?" takang tanong ko.
They didn't answer me. Ipinaupo ako ni Lucas sa mahabang sofa bago tumabi saakin.
Leo seated on the single sofa.
"My wife was murdered last year and until now wala pa rin kaming nakukuhang hustisya dahil pilit tinatapon ng korte ang kaso" paninula ni Leo.
"Prosecutor Lucas gathered more solid evidence." he said.
"Your brother's handprints were found on the victim's body also in the pistol used to shot the victim except of her neck " nagulat naman ako sa sinabi niya.
Paanong nainvolve rito si Kuya?
Do we know Leo before? Or his wife?
"Paanong nandoon? Do my brother know your wife?" tanong ko.
"Yes. He was obsessed with my wife back then hanggang sa kinasuhan niya ang kapatid mo ng stalking" sagot niya.
"So my brother murdered your wife?" tanong ko.
Leo looked at Lucas kaya tinignan ko rin siya.
"We're not sure" sagot ni Lucas.
"What do you mean?" takang tanong ko.
"According to the doctor, the victim could still be alive despite of the gunshot she had" sagot ni Lucas.
"And then?"
"Then like what I've said. Hindi nagmatch ang handprints ng Kuya mo sa leeg ng biktima" sagot niya.
"Then we conducted a new autopsy focused on her neck then we found out that her right thyroid cartilage was fractured, according to the doctors who checked it, ito raw ang sanhi ng pagkamatay ng biktima" Sabi pa niya.
"Sinakal ang biktima?" tanong ko.
"Yes"
May inilabas siyang papel at ipinatong sa table. Leo read it first at mukhang hindi maganda ang nakasulat rito.
