CASSIEDY

"TERMINATORS?!" Gulat na reaksyon ni Xav.

"Ahuh! Terminators nga Xav." Sabi ko dito.

"You mean, pumapatay kayo?" OA!! Di naman masyado.

"If necessary." Sagot ko dito.

"What do you mean by that?" Tanog nito sakin.

"Well you know, sometimes we need to make someone shut their mouth forever. Sometimes by accident, sometimes when we need to protect ourselves. We're not a bad guys Xav. Mukha ba kaming masama?" Tumango naman to.

"Ay grabe!! Wala man lang doubt? Tango agad? Sakit mo namang magsalita betpren." Kunware pa akong humawak sa dibdib ko.

"J-joke lang naman,Cassie." Hays.

"Know what? You don't have to force yourself to stay here if you din't want to. You're free to go. It's not like I'm obliging you to stay." Sabi ko ng seryoso.

"But---" hindi ko siya pinatapos magsalita.

"You may now go." Cold kong sabi dito. Hindi naman siya nagpapigil naglakad din siya agad palabas. Nakakainis yung ganon. Laki ng takot sa buhay, it's not like we're killers. -___- Minsan lang talaga kailangan naming gawin or else kami yung mamamatay. It's not like I'm afraid of that, wala na akong kinakatakutan sa buhay simula ng tinapon ako. I learned to fight for myself.

"Duwag naman nun, boss!" Reklamo ni Kath.

"Let him." Sabi ko lang dito.

You can't runaway from us Xavier Villamor.

XAVIER

Nagulat talaga ako sa nalaman ko. How could they kill people?! Lahat may karapatang mabuhay, hindi naman sa nandidiri ako sa kanila but, hindi ko kayang maging ganon. I can't kill! I can't hurt anyone pero kinakain ako ng guilt ng makita ko yung disappointment sa mata ni Cassie. Hindi naman sa ayaw ko na siyang maging kaibigan it's just too much for me to take. Naglakad na ako pabalik sa Cosmo park and headed back to home.

CASSIEDY

I hate the look from his eyes. Yung tipong nandidiri siya samin. We need to fight for us to live. It wasn't our own choice to kill. Si Mandy, we need to protect her. She's a princess and there are people who keeps on hunting her. It's either we kill them or we let them kill or get Mandy. And we won't let that happen.

"Yah! Yah! Yah!" Mandy is calling me Yah. Mandy is a Princess. A daughter of a duke from Paris pano ba napadpad si Mandy samin? Actually pinsan ko si Mandy sa side nung umampon sakin. I'm just three years older than her and since namatay si mom and dad I was the one who took care of her.

"Bakit, Mandy?" Naramdaman ko namang yumakap sakin si Mandy, simula pa noon malambing na sakin si Mandy kahit minsan topakin siya.

"Hehe, sorry for using your baby." Tas hinalik halikan pa ako nito sa pisngi. I just patted her head.

"Nah, mandy kung gusto mo ng baril just tell me. Bibilhan kita and I'll also teach you how to use it. You see, yung ibang baril ko may code and seriously if you enter a wrong code makukuryente ka. Luckily yung ginamit mo kanina hindi ko pa nalalagyan ng code." Paliwanag ko dito.

"Sorry, couz." Then she pouted.

"Just, don't do it again, kay? I just want you safe, that's all." She just nodded. Mandy is a very sweet girl. She's childish no doubt about that pero she's a shifter. Believe me when I say she's a shifter.

"Yah, may tao." Oh there she is, shifting again. She threw a knife towards the window and boom sapul yung pusa. Dead cat.

"You and your senses, Mandy." Kinurot ko yung pisngi nya. I told you she's a shifter. Once she's sweet, then later a killer. She have this incredible senses na madaling makaramdam pag may nagmamasid.

"Couz, I'm hungry. What are you going to cook?" Ako din ang cook ng mga to.

"I'm not going to cook. Dun nalang tayo sa bahay kumain." Sabi ko dito

"Really?!" Hindi na kasi siya magawi sa bahay you see, since namatay yung foster parents ko I never let anyone go inside the house anymore except paps. Bumaba na kami ni Mandy sa sala and as usual andun ang iba.

"Pack your things guys. Overnight sa bahay." Sabi ko dito and in my shock naglabas sila ng bag at nandun na ang mga gamit
nila.

"Eavesdropper." Sabi ko nalang.

"Hehe." Tanging sagot ni Kath.

"Rogue, you drive." Utos ko dito.

"The usual." Sagot lang nito.

"Wait, I'll just call paps." NagOK sign lang naman ang mga to.

I immediately dialed Paps number.

[Hello, princess.]

"Paps, jan po kami magdidinner ng terms." Terms yung pinaikli kong tawag sa terminators.

[Okay princess, anong gusto mong lutuin ko?]

"Paps, you know we eat anything you cook so, anything will do." Sabi ko dito.

[Okay, ingat kayo.] binaba ko na ang tawag at bumaling sa terms.

"Let's go." Nakangiti kong wika rito.
