Mission#3| Agent Six

I gasped then stare blankly at the paper. Really?

"What is it, Six?"

I muttered some curses before I read it once again.

"Nicole kills me."

I let out a heave sigh when I heard a deafening silence.

"Nicole? Her granddaughter, why?"

Well bakit nga ba? Isa lang naman ang dahilan niyan eh. Money. People always chasing for it. Riches, glory and power are uncertain, it's just temporary, but for them...

"Well, Agent Three it's very obvious kaya pinatay siya ni Nicole ay para makuwa iyong kayaman ng lolo niya, kaya lang noong napatay niya ito, sa kapatid niya pala ipinamana ang lahat kaya wala ring nagawa iyong Nicole, gets na honey?"

"Okay. Now, Stop with the "honey". Focus, Six"

I smile before entering the room of his lolo, nakakatakot talaga dito tunog pa lang nung hagdan ang creepy na. Matanda na daw kasi itong bahay mga sinaunang panahon na kaya ganun.

When I opened the door of the a little gasp came out of my mouth. Tae, nagulat ako doon sa malaking portray. It's a portray of a very old man, it really gives me shivers, I feel like he's watching my every move. In short, it's so creepy.

Iginala ko iyong paningin ko sa loob ng kwarto, nothing suspicious well, bukod sa sobrang luma na noong mga gamit, wala namang kakaiba. I squinted my eyes when I saw an antique table, it's beautiful despite of its condition but what really caught my attention is the cleanliness of the table. It doesn't have any dust and all the things here are full of it, hmmm, very suspicious indeed. And according to our client, matagal ng walang tao dito at walang maglilinis ng bahay.

"Three, wala bang multo dito? O baka naman merong zombie dito" nanlalaking matang sabi ko. I'm not afraid of bullets pero ibang usapan na ang mga ghosts or any creepy creatures.

"Six, your imagination is really out of this world. Stop imagining things that will make you scared."

"Really? I hope so."

"Touché. Coward."

"Ewan ko sayo Three gusto mo atang mahalikan kita e."

"Six."

I laughed to hide some unwanted feelings I keep on surpassing. "Okay si Noah na lang ki-kiss ko"

"NO! I mean... hmm whatever"

I laugh again. Not genuine, tho. "Huli ka!"

Tinignan ko iyong ilalim ng table, well wala namang secret na lalagyan, iyong laman naman ng mga cabinet ay puro agiw. I sigh at saka umupo sa swivel chair at nag-isip isip. I try to visualize everything. I closed my eyes at saka huminga ng malalim. Mariin akong pumikit bago muling minulat ang aking mga mata. I grinned when I saw something. May nakapa kasi ako doon sa gilid noong table. Tinignan ko yung gilid at saka ngumisi. Alam niyo iyong iniikot na mga numbers na parang lock code? Well iyon yung andito 4 no.

Ti-nry ko iyong birthday noong lolo niya hindi naman, iyong sa lola niya hindi din. Lahat noong mga birthday nila hindi nagmatch. Napa 'touche' na lang ako, ang sakit sa ulo naman nito.

Wait. May nakita akong papel na naka-ipit doon sa lamp shade.

"At night they come ot without being fetched, and by day they are lost without being stolen."

Ugh. Riddles although madali lang. Sobrang obvious noong sagot... Stars lang naman ang tinutukoy noong riddle kaya lang saan naman ako hahanap ng stars.
