Eye-dentity II; the chase (completed)

Chapter 18

"Damn it!!! Bakit pati ang files ng university five years ago, hindi recorded?!" galit na sigaw ni Dylan. He's already frustrated dahil wala kahit anong link ang pwede nyang makuha mula sa nakaraan nya.

"it just confirmed that you've met her here," Nico concluded.

"How can a mere human erase all—"

"I think she's not a mere human. She's either another hunter or worst...a vampire," wika naman ni Jared.

"a vampire.. she can't be a vampire..because if she is..."

"if she is...then what?" Phillip asked, halatang nasunsundan ang takbo ng utak nya.

"Then it must be—" at Oo, ang reyna ang una nyang naisip.

"Don't you even think about that Queen, Dylan. And please take her off your mind!"

Dylan looked away, "I'm not thinking about her."

"The hell you're not. Eh mula ng bumalik tayo dito sa Pilipinas, lagi mo na lang syang iniisip."

"Paano mo nalamang sya ang iniisip ko?"

"You're not the same Dylan after you brought Veronica there. "

Dylan just glared at them and turned around when he bumped on a man.

"Red!! Tingnan mo naman kasi yung dinadaanan mo!" ani ng babaeng kasama ng lalakeng nabangga nya.

"I'm sorry."

"it's ok. Hindi din ako tumitingin—"

Naputolsa pagsasalita si Dylan ng manlaki ang mata ng babae, "Dylan??Nico?"

"Ugh...miss, do I know you?"

"HMP!! Kinalimutan nyo na ako?!! Pagkatapos ng—ng— ooh.. I can't remember.. Pero dito pa din pala kayo nagwo-work?" the girl asked, obviously knew them.

"No. Pero naka-kontrata pa din ang agaency namin dito. I really can't remember you, miss?"

Seryoso namang lumapit sa kanila ang lalakeng kasama ng babae, "Elizabeth?? May hindi ba ako alam?"

Liza smiles warmly at the man, "They are my friends.. as far as my memory can remember.. Pero hindi ko matandaan kung bakit— yeah..there's this one time..five years ago.. I slipped Dylan's picture—"

"you had his picture?!!"

Liza giggled, "Yeah.. Ang gwapo-gwapo kasi nya dati..and look at him now.. more handsome than ever.."

"Elizabeth," saway ni Red.

"Pero hanggang don lang yon. Promise.. Kasi nga nailagay ko yung picture nya sa bag ng bestfriend ko. I can also remember him interrogating my bestfriend at—oh, gosh, red, did I just mention my bestfriend?"

"yeah."

"Bestfriend mo? Well ,miss, wala akong panahong makipagtandaan sayo," supladong sagot ni Dylan at tinalikuran ang babae.

"Really?? Ang suplado mo pa din. But that's were our friendship started.. I think.."

"Elizabeth.. let's go. Hinihintay na tayo ni Alison."

"Wait lang hon, makikipagtsismisan lang naman yon sa mga dati naming kaklase eh."

"Eh bakit kanina, madaling-madali ka?"

Liza stares at his eyes sadly, "Kasi baka sakaling makakuha ako ng balita sa bestfriend ko."

"You're still not giving up on her."

"Please understand, Red, whenever I keep on remembering those times...when I am supposed to be with my bestfriend, ang nakikita ko lang ay ang sarili ko.. sa tuwing may naaalala akong nakakatawa na dapat alam kong may kasama ako, I saw myself laughing alone. Whenever I remember the times I cried because I failed, I knew she's there but I just saw myself, crying alone..her supposed place is vacant..as if she didn't exist. Pero alam ko—"
