“Ceb, are you out of your mind?” Greg shout at him. He’s furious.

“Fuck! Just let us go! This is none of your fucking business!” he shout back. Frustration and rage is written all over him.

I don’t know what to react. This is like cliché in a drama series. Why did we end up here anyway? Damn.

Matalim siyang tinitigan ni Greg. Tim also is in his side ready to tackle him if he goes on punching Ceb. Mas maganda ng maging alerto kami sa nangyayari.

“Hey, both of you just calm down.” I finally said to stop both of them.

They didn’t even bother to listen at me and continue to kill each other with their eyes. Ellena now is holding Ceb’s arms trying to calm him.

Napamura nalang ng malutong si Greg at napahilamos ng mukha.

“You’re being reckless Cebastian. You’re selfish! Uunahin mo pa yang kalibugan mo kaysa sa kaibigan natin? He needed us. Just fuck!” Greg

“@sshole! Of course uunahin ko siya! Ellena is my life. I can’t live without her.” Matigas na sabi naman ni Ceb

Napatawa naman ng si Greg.

“Use your brain not your damn heart! Ipapahamak ka niyan. Hindi lang ikaw, even Zach and Elenna too!” Greg

“Just listen to Greg, dude. Let’s just wait for Zach’s return.” Tim

“You’re being love suck dude. Isip isip rin hahaha.” Alex

Sinamaan lang siya ng tingin ni Ceb.

“You don’t know anything @ssholes! Wala kayo sa posisyon ko ngayon kaya andaling sabihin yan. You didn’t even know how to love. Balibhasa mga Manwhore kayo!” Ceb

“You’re crossing the line Ceb. That’s below the belt. Yes, we don’t know and we don’t give a damn about that feelings of yours!” Galit nasabi ni Alex.

Now, it became worst. Worst as hell!

Alex is in serious mode and ready to fight him. This is terrible pag nagpatuloy pa ito. We didn’t want to see Alex bad side.

Pumagitna ako tsaka hinawakan ang balikat ni Alex. He’ll be furious beast as fuck!

“Enough. We are all have troubles yes. But think of Zach. He is more troubled than you Ceb. He might lost his life too Kelly and his Company too. We all know how important it is to him, right? We also witness his hard work in that company just to save it. For the past 3 years he has been working his ass day and night by sweat and blood too. Now, is the time to help him at all cost. We need to have plans to resolve this. Ceb, don’t do something reckless because we don’t know how this events may turn.” I said.

This is hard. But I hope I convince Ceb and the others.

“I’m sorry guys. We didn’t know na maraming maghihirapan sa gagawin namin ni Ceb. We didn’t think of the consequences. We both focused on our own future and ignored what will happen. We decide to go France and get married there. Sinubukan naming takasan ito. I am very sorry and hope you would understand us.” Ellena

She’s now crying in Ceb’s arm.

We just stand there stunned while watching the love birds. How sweet. But their plan will not gonna work. Well, Ellena been watching by his father and I am sure that they have been tailed here by his father’s watch dog. It’s impossible for them to leave the country. And worst baka mapatay pa tong si Ceb pagtinakas si Ellen.

Nagkatinginan kaming apat at sabay sabay na napahinga.

“I’m not sorry for what I acted earlier because it’s a right thing to do. To fight for her. But I do feel sorry for being reckless though.” Ceb

Napatango lang kami.

“Now, it settle. I need your favour.” Greg said while looking to us.

He’s serious this time. He looks scary and it give me chills all over my body. Geez he should stop staring like that.

Hinintay naming siyang magsalita.

“Let’s get in. Kanina pa tayo pinagtitinginan dito sa labas.” He said.

Laglag balikat kaming nakatingin sa kanya.

“What the hell dude! Akala ko naman kung ano yun. Kinilabutan pa naman ako.” Tim

Napapailing naman kaming sumunod sa kanya sa loob ng Bar nito. We head straight to his office na siyang pinagtaka namin. After we settle to his couch he look at us again. Same eyes earlier.

“Someone been eavesdropping our conversation.” He said.

“How did you know that? Kaya pala mukha kang creepy kanina.” Alex

“I saw someone earlier. He disguise himself at nakatayo malapit sa atin. You didn’t notice it because of the heated argument. It’s the Old man’s dog. He’s spying us lalo pa’t ako ang nakahawak ng MGC ngayon. We need to be careful.” Greg

Napatango kami at nagsisimura na.

“Kaya mo ba kami dinala sa office mo to lure him?” Sagot ko.

“Yes. And he’s at the door by now. But don’t worry he can’t hear us because my office is soundproof.” He then smirk.

“Pagamit din minsan nitong office mo Greg.” Alex

“Why?” Greg

“Para all out pag naglaro ako with my babies. No one can’t hear us too. Hahaha” Alex

Tinapunan ko naman ito ng throw pillow saka siya pinagbabatok ng katabi nitong si Tim at Greg. Loko talaga. Seryoso na eh hahaluan pa ng kalibugan.

Tumikhim si Greg kaya back to serious mode ulit ito.

“A month or should I say 25 days from now to be exact, MGC will be having a stakeholder’s conference. Now that Zach is in the province he can’t get more allies to vote for him as the CEO.” Greg

“Wait, anong connect ng pagpapakasal ko sakanya?” Ellena

Napaisip ako. Companies merging.

“It’s a win-win situations for him. If Zach and you are to be married, Zach will win the majority of share. Hindi lang yon. You know that your father’s company is a rival company of MGC, if the two companies will merge there is a high chance and probably be one of the top 10 High end company in the world. It’s globally competitive that it could be one of the largest company in Asia. Mas maraming investors mas Malaki ang market price and ten times profit will be earn by the Company. And your future will be secured.” Greg

“And for your dad, he’ll gain 30% share of MGC. Not only that, that old man plans to take over MGC to have more power and money.” Seryoso nitong sabi.

“Did Zach know this?” Tim

“Zach is smart. He will know this for sure.” Greg

“Bakit siya pumayag?” frustrate na tanong ni Ellena.

“Zach is pressured by your father. He gave him a week to decide. At first your father is mad by how long Zach could think but at the end he gave in. He even threaten Zach if he back down.”

“Then why is he in the province right now?” naguguluhang tanong ni Ceb

“Yeah, he supposed to take action now. Ano yun nakuha niya pang magbakasyon?” Tim

Napabuntong hinga ako saka sumagot.

“He needs to breath.” Simpleng sabi ko. I know my friend. This is toxic for him.

All of us it the room heave a sigh.

“That’s why we are here to help him.” Greg

“I thought we’re gonna wait for him to return?” Tim

“Yes. But…we gonna do something.” Nakangisi sabi nito.
