Devyn:
***
"Devyn, 'nak, what a surprise visit.." I hugged my father as Lorenzo greeted my mother. Pumasok kami sa loob ng bahay.
"Yeah, napadaan lang kami ni..Lorenzo, pa." Nilingon kaagad ni papa si Lorenzo na nasa likuran ko katabi din ni mama.
"Here for business again, Lorenzo? Tamang-tama, on going harvest ngayon ng tulips." Ow, the last time they'd met here, I lied. My fault. Lorenzo eyed at me now—did he expect me to tell something to them?
"Err, pa—Lorenzo loves doing business but he's here for me to tell you both that he's my boyfriend." Well, wala rin naman akong balak magsinungaling ngayon. Nagpalipat-lipat ang mga tingin nila sa'min ni Lorenzo but undeniably, they were elated.
"Well, what can I say but I am happy for you, hija. Nice to meet you, again, Lorenzo.." Mama gladly declared at ganun din naman si papa. That afternoon, everything seemed vibrant to us.
Even Lorenzo was smiling and laughing with papa Hernando. They were talking something but I and mama Anabelle were chitchatting as well. Maya-maya'y nag-aya sina papa to visit the field and check for the fresh harvest.
"Where's Bolton? Hindi ko 'ata siya napansin ngayon?" Hindi lang siguro ako nasanay na hindi nakabuntot si Bolton rito. Wala kasing isang sasakyan na nakasunod kanina. Palabas na kami ng bahay and was about to ride the golf car patungo sa farm.
"I told him to go back to the city." He held my hand and guided me to get in the gold car first. I never imagined, he was a handsome gentleman—kanina pa siya sa loob ng bahay. Even to mama Anabelle and mama complimented his actions.
"I see—hahhh!!" Napasigaw ako nang biglang sumabog sa labas ng gate namin. God, it was loud! Naging alerto si Lorenzo while my eyes went directly to my parents na mabuti nalang at hindi pa nakalabas ng gate.
"L-Lorenzo..? What w-was that?" Kinabahan ako. Lumabas ako ng golf car and ran towards my parents while Lorenzo and papa checked the outside cautiously.
"Stay inside. I'll check it." I heard him command.
What the hell was that? Mukhang galing sa sasakyan niya ang pagsabog. Papa Hernando was with him too and now dialing his phone. Of course, we need to report this immediately. Sinong gumawa nito? Sinusundan ba kami ni Lorenzo hanggang dito..from Spain? No..

The police ensured a complete safety after the incident—at confirmed nga that a bomb was planted in Lorenzo's car. The hell, kung paanong nagawa niya yun at kung sino man—the cctv could surely gave a definite answer to that. Ibibigay daw nila tomorrow.
"I can't wait for tomorrow." He exasperatingly breathed as he faced me, holding my hand. Mahina niya iyong pinisil. Nasa living room din sila ni papa at mama—hindi makapaniwalang may mangyayaring ganito sa payapang lugar namin.
"You should stay here with your parents." Of course. Tumango ako. Hindi ko rin kayang isantabi ang nangyari ngayon but the bomb was planted in his own car—kahit nasa labas din naman ang pick-up ni papa Hernando. It was aiming at him or me, or the both of us.
"I appreciate all the securities surrounded pero dapat ka ring mag-ingat. The bomb was planted in your car, ba't hindi sa pick-up ni papa?" I was hell worried dahil paano kung tambangan nalang siyang bigla sa daan? I mean, siguro sanay na siya sa ganito—but not me.. I felt scared for him..
"Just don't be a hard-headed, Devyn. You should stay here, my men are here to ensure you and your family's safety. Will you do that for me?" The way he was staring at me now was like persuading my soul to abide what he says—he was hypnotizing me everytime..
I nodded. "Will you be safe for me?" Balik ko sa tanong. He smiled and gave me a quick kiss before dragging me to approached my parents. Nagpaalam ito at ganun din ang sinabi—I and my parents had the same thoughts. Baka siya ang puntirya ng kung sino man..
That night, hindi ako nakatulog ng maayos. I was sending him messages and told him to connect a call as he arrived the city. He just chatted me a simple yes and another reminder to stay home with my parents.
Honestly? Sa kaniya ako mas nag-aalala.

Beep.. Beep.. Beep...
The number you have dialed is either unattended or out of coverage area—the f**k! Ilang araw na, no, scratch that! Ilang weeks na? Mag-iisang buwan na halos na hindi niya sinasagot ang mga tawag ko, chats ko—and now, this redundant automated response was getting into my nerve!
Like what the hell, Lorenzo!?
His last message was that 'yes' he sent to me at hindi ako nakatiis, I went back to the city and finally reported for work. Nahihiya din ako kay sir Echo—baka kung ano nalang ang masabi sa performance ko.
"Hindi ka pa rin ba sinasagot?" Lukot ang mukha ni Laura as she bit her nails again, her bad habit. Napailing ako. Gusto ko na talagang magalit—pero after what happened last time with him? We were both threatened—pero matapos nun wala namang nangyari sa'min or what so I was thinking baka si Lorenzo nga talaga ang pakay ng kung sino.
"I am both annoyed and worried, Laura." Gusto ko ng magalit pero what if may nangyaring masama sa kaniya?
Right! Tumalikod ako at mabibilis ang mga hakbang.
"Anong plano mo, girl?" Laura was following me. Siya ang isa sa mga naging matalik kong kaibigan sa kompanya, well, halos naman lahat ng mga empleyado dito.. Saglit ko siyang nilingon.
"I need to file a leave, girl!" I need to fly to Spain immediately and booked a ticket. I wanna make sure kung anong nangyayari sa kaniya.. Majority of my feelings were hell bothered—wala man lang talagang contact or communication from him or from Bolton. I heavily breathed, I just really hoped he's fine..
