Humakbang ako paatras upang mapanatili ang titig ko sa loob mula sa sumasarang pintuan nito. I cannot be mistaken, that's my father! Pero ano namang ginagawa niya rito sa ganitong lugar?
Na-estatwa ako at tila nawalan ng pakiramdam sa iba pang nangyayari sa kapaligiran ko nang natagpusan ang sariling nakatitig pa rin sa nakasarado ng pintuan ngayon. He was not alone, he was with a lot of people- fellow men and for some reason, that room he is in, excretes a menacing aura. It somehow tells me that no matter how curious I am, I should not ask or even dare to question his presence within that room.
"Hey, assholes! Open this goddamn door kung ayaw niyong sirain ko ito!" Ausell staring shouting, causing my senses to awaken.
Tumingin ako sa mga bouncer the kasama niya na ngayon, hindi ko masabi kung kailan pa sila nandiyan. The door is locked and no one was opening it. Frey was inside, with god knows who, and it gives me the creeps knowing we do not know what's happening inside.
"Isaac, call the police, as soon as this door opens, let's take this guy away." Earie held on Isaac's arm.
Si Isaac, nandidilim ang mukhang tumango kay Earie. Nung tumalikod si Issac upang humanap ng tahimik na lugar upang kumausap ng pulis ay lumapit si Earie sa akin. She looks horrified and worried at the same time.
"If they are doing drugs inside, you're better ready to close your bar." Earie warned the bouncers. "Mark my words." She warned.
"No, hindi 'to uubra. Let me speak to your manager, or the concierge. Whoever has access through your keycards!" Kwinelyuhan ni Ausell ang isang bouncer na mas malaki pa ang katawan sa kanya.
The bouncers had no idea what to do, nor they are aware of the danger happening inside. It looked to me like they were only here because Ausell was causing a commotion.
"Bingi ka ba? Nasa loob ang kaibigan namin, kasama ang mga lalaking hindi namin kilala, call your manager and open this door." Singit ko.
"Hey, hey, what's the problem here?"
Lumingon ako sa pinanggalingan ng boses at nakita ang nakababatang kapatid ni Leonardo Cruz na papalapit. It's so funny that until now, hindi ko pa rin alam ang pangalan niya, pero tandang-tanda ko ang pagmumukha niya.
He looked serious when he approached us. "I am the owner, what is going on?" He asked.
Hinarap siya ni Ausell at pinantayan ang kanyang tingin, "Open this VIP door."
"VIP rooms are naturally locked from the inside, kid. Why do you need me to open this?"
Walang patutunguhan ito kung mag-aaway pa sila bago buksan ang pintuan. Ausell looked insulted by the way he answered, kaya bago pa man ito sumagot ulit at baka mauwi pa sa sagutan ay sumingit na ako.
"Our friend is inside with strangers. She is not feeling well and she is not answering our calls, please help us get her out."
Lumipat ang tingin nito sa akin. "And what is a minor like you doing in a place like this?"
"Just open the door!"
Para pa siyang problemado noong narinig ang sinabi ko. "You better be right about this." He warned while pulling out his master keycard and using it to easily open the door.
Wala kaming pinalampas na oras noong nabuksan na ang pintuan. Earie held on my arm while we enter and saw three guys and three girl, kasama doon si Frey.
"Oh my! Frey!" Dinaluhan agad ni Earie si Frey na nakahiga na ngayon sa couch, bumubula ang bibig.
"You asshole!" Hindi ko namalayan ang mabilis na paglampas ni Ausell sa amin at dumiretso sa mga lalaking naabutan namin sa loob ng kuwarto.
