Trouvaille (Guns and Roses Series #1)

30th

"What's his plan?" tanong ko sa kanya while we're on our way to the office.

Pumayag na 'ko sa kanya nung sinabi niyang sumabay na ako sa kanya patungo sa opisina. Hindi na 'ko nagmatigas pa. Nakaka-pagod naman makipag-argue.

"Later, 6 PM." He said, "His men are going to plant bombs around the building," he continued.

Napa-tingin ako sa kanya. "W-what? Is he trying to kill all the people in our company? Wala ba siyang isip o puso man lang?!"

Napaka-rami naming empleyado. Ang daming taong madadamay kung gagawin niya 'yan! Hindi niya man lang naisip 'yon?

"What matters most for him ay mapa-bagsak ang kumpanya n'yo, lalong lalo na ang tatay mo." saad niya.

I shook my head in disbelief. Unbelievable. I thought they're friends before pero hindi pala.

Impostor.

"I think I'm going to join the mission later since I already talked to dad about this," Paalam ko sa kanya.

"If you're going, then I'm going." sabi niya. He scoffed. "Don't worry, hindi na mauulit 'yung dati."

I smiled bitterly and held his hand while his holding the car clutch. He looked at me and smiled back.

"I'm sorry," sabi niya.

"Tama na, what's important to us right now is to put your father in jail." I assured him. 

"Do you think we have a power to do so?" he asked.

"I think?" hindi siguradong sagot ko. "You're an evidence and also a witness. My dad will help us with this case," sabi ko at tumango lang siya.

We reached the office and held our hands as we headed in. A lot of employees are eye-ing on us. I rolled my eyes. Napansin ata nilang naiirita ako kaya bumalik sila sa kanilang mga trabaho.

I scoffed. "Mga chismosa," I whispered.

Pumasok na kami sa elevator ni Isaac. Natatawa siyang tumingin sa'kin. 

I arched my brow. "What?"

He shook his head then ruffled his hair. Ang pogi. Kainis. "Ang sungit mo, mood swings agad? Buntis ka na?"

My jaw dropped. Agad kong hinampas ang braso niya. Then, I remembered, we didn't used protection that night! I can feel my face heating up!

"S-shut up!" Sabi ko at umiwas ng tingin sa kanya. He just laughed and hugged me from the side and kissed the side of my head.

"Papanindigan naman kita. Papakasalan naman kita, eh," he whispered.  

I rolled my eyes and tried to stop myself from smiling. "Shut up,"

The elevator door opened. Lumabas na kami para dumeretso sa'ming mga opisina. 

I waved at him goodbye. Bago pa man ako makapasok sa loob ng opisina, he pulled me towards him and he held my face then kissed my forehead. 

"See you later," he whispered and headed to his office.

Tulala akong naka-tingin habang papalayo siya sa'kin. He winked at me before opening his door at pumasok na sa opisina. I shooked my head  and smiled.

Pumasok na 'ko sa opisina at napa-bagsak ang balikat ko sa dami ng papeles na nasa table ko! Putangina naman! Kailan ba mababawasan 'tong ginagawa ko?

Tinawagan ko si Phoebe para bigyan ako ng kape dahil mukhang madami-dami 'tong gagawin 'ko. 

Ang sarap tuloy bumalik sa pag-aaral. Punyeta.

Pumasok na si Phoebe sa opisina with a cup of coffee with her right hand. Nilagay niya ito sa table ko.
