Brye's POV
Nandito ako ngayon sa isang restaurant. Inutos sa'kin ni boss na manmanan ang mga kinikilos ng isa sa mga ka kompetensya nya sa hacking tournament kaya medyo iniba ko ang paraan ng pananamit ko lalo na't kilala nya ako. Kahit na malapit ako sa kinauupuan nya, nasisiguro kong hindi nya ako madaling mapansin dahil nakatuon ang buo niyang atensyon sa kausap nya.
*Phone vibrates*
Tiningnan ko muna ang screen ng phone bago sagutin ang tawag ni boss
[Beelzebub's planning to have the shipment of their ammo, explosives and other weapons tomorrow night.]
Hindi ko pa rin tinatanggal ang paningin ko sa kanya. Baka umalis ang gago, malilintikan ako ni boss pag nagkataon.
"What's the plan?" Mahina kong sambit pagkatapos uminom ng kape
[Show him who's the real boss, Stallion. That scumbag's messing with the wrong 'family']
Napailing nalang ako at hinayaan syang magpatuloy sa pagsasalita
[The shipment will be disguised as a lumber delivery along with some goods. It would be fun if our men will try to stop it before it arrives at the barge.]
"Sigurado akong pag-iinitan ka na naman dyan boss."
Alam kong iisa lang ang paghihinalaan ni Beelzebub at malamang ay si Gray 'yun.
[When it comes to my rivals and enemies, I was known for my cruel ways. Meddling with my business will surely make those shitheads' lives miserable. I will surely make Beelzebub's eyes bleed from his tears of desperation. Right now, he should even thank me 'cause I'm helping him remember his place, in case he forgot.]
I grinned "I guess that's what he gets for crossing you. That's satisfying. Nga pala Gray, Raven's with Harrison right now."
Si Wayne Harrison ang pinapasundan ni boss. 'Di kami close pero sabihin nalang nating may konti akong alam tungkol sa kanya. Sa pagkakaalam ko, may ibang Mafia syang sinalihan. I am not sure if he's part of Beelzebub's family.
Now that Gray wants me to eavesdrop him, mas na curious ako sa kanya. Maybe there's something that Gray wants to know about this guy.
[No wonder I couldn't find her in the library]
Napahinto ako sa pag-iisip nung magsalita si Gray
"Nainip ata sa kahihintay sa'yo kaya nagutom"
'Di ko mapigilang mapa half smile
[Such a glutton. Make sure she'll come home safe. There's something that I need to deal with in the compound.]
"Areglado, boss."
Raven's POV
Kararating ko lang sa bahay ni Gray. Hinatid ako ni Brye. By coincidence, nagkita kami sa labas ng restaurant kanina. Buti nga at 'di nya nakita si Wayne. Baka kung ano pang isipin nun tapos magsusumbong kay Gray.
'Skylark'
Yan ang laging bumabagabag sa isipan ko. That feeling na parang may koneksyon ako sa kanila. Basta, 'di ko ma-explain.
-flashback-
"We don't need your money, Raven."
Eh anong gusto nila?
Nararamdaman kong mas lumapit pa sya sa kinauupuan ko. Ramdam ko ring tumutulo na ang butil ng pawis na namumuo sa aking noo. 'Di ko maiwasang kabahan nung marinig ko ang ibinulong nya sa'kin.
