Luke, I Love You! ♥ (The Umbrella Hotel Scandal) ON-HOLD!

Chapter 5: Jea Ventura

Chapter 5

**Jea Ventura**

-Luke's POV-

"The speeding motorcycle took the sharp corner so fast in the darkness that both policemen in the pursuing car shouted ‘whoa!’ Sergeant Fisher slammed his large foot on the brake, thinking that the boy who was riding pillion was sure to be flung under his wheels; however, the motorbike made the turn without unseating either of its riders, and with a wink of its red tail light, vanished up the narrow side street. ‘We’ve got ‘em now!” cried PC Anderson excitedly. ‘That’s a dead end!”

Leaning hard on the steering wheel and crashing his gears, Fisher scraped half the paint off the flank of the car as he forced it up the alleyway in pursuit.

There in the headlights sat their quarry, stationary at last after a quarter of an hour’s chase. The two riders were trapped between a towering brick wall and the police car, which was now crashing towards them like some growling, luminous-eyed predator."

**YAWN**

"Hmmm.."

"There was so little space between the car doors and the walls of the alley that Fisher and Anderson had difficulty extricating themselves from the vehicle. It injured their dignity to have to inch, crab-like, towards the miscreants. Fisher dragged his generous belly along the wall, tearing buttons off his shirt as he went, and finally snapping off the wing mirror with his backside.

‘Get off the bike!’ he bellowed at the smirking youths, who sat basking in the flashing blue light as though enjoying it.

They did as they were told. Finally pulling free from the broken wind mirror, Fisher glared at them. They seemed to be in their late teens. The one who had been driving had long black hair; his insolent good looks reminded Fisher unpleasantly of his daughter’s guitar-playing, layabout boyfriend. The second boy also had black hair, though his was short and stuck up in all directions; he wore glasses and a broad grin. Both were dressed in T-shirts emblazoned with a large golden bird; the emblem, no doubt, of some deafening, tuneless rock band."

"J.K. Rowling is a legend, I must say! I think she's the richest writer in the world. Maybe I should try writing too nang sa ganun 'di ko na kailangan pang pumasok ng trabaho from 7: 15 pm to 5 am. Well mukhang boring din naman maging writer..."

I was reading the prequel of Harry Potter when boredom strucked me. Twelve hours na akong andito sa condo - nagbabasa habang kumakain ng paborito kong spicy Jin ramyeon. Hindi kasi ako makalabas dahil sobrang lakas ng ulan. 

"4:24.. malayo pa naman.." mahinang sabi ko habang nilalagay ko yung libro dun sa desk ko.

Humiga ulit ako at nag-isip. Biglang na lang nag flashback yung pangyayari sa elevator kahapon. Si Jea. Almost 3 days ko na rin syang hindi nakikita at mabuti naman nagkita kami kahapon. Pero nakaka disappoint yung scene nila nung lalaking kasama nya. 

"Haaaaay nako Luke!" I said at nag gasped. 

I took my wallet na nasa desk ko at may kinuha dun.

"Jea, Jea, Jea.. ano bang meron sayo at parang hindi ako mapakali kapag may kasama kang iba? Ginayuma mo ba ako?" para na akong timang dito kasi kinakausap ko yung picture ni Jea na nasa wallet ko. Kung nagtataka kayo kung bakit may picture ako nya, isa lang ang answer ko dyan - STALKER nya ako. HAHA! :3

Sino nga ba si Jea? Paano ko sya nakilala? At ano sya sa buhay ko?
