NURSE MADELAINE

CHAPTER 68: Chainsaw

"Nagustuhan mo ba yung location? Kanina ka pa tahimik. May problema ba?" Nagmamaneho si Gian papunta ng AMC, galing sila sa lokasyon kung saan balak ng binata magpatayo ng bahay nila ni Madelaine.

"Hmmm...maganda. Pero okay naman na tayo dun sa condo mo eh. Ang laki na nga nun para sa ating tatlo. Anong gagawin mo dun kapag nakalipat na tayo?" Seryoso lang ito at hindi makatingin kay Gian.

"Gusto ko kasi, yung nakakatakbo si Maggie sa labas. Yung may playground. Yung pwede siyang maglaro. Hindi yung ganun lang ang ginagalawan niya. Tsaka hindi lang tayo tatlo. I want a big family. Parang kayo, ako kasi mag-isa lang ako. Gusto ko three to five children, the more the merrier."

"Sabi mo eh." Tipid na sagot ng dalaga na halatang nakasimangot at malayo ang tingin.

"Faith was Ethan's girlfriend, okay? Longterm girlfriend...actually nagsasama na sila eh. They were together for eighteen years. Kasal na lang ang kulang sa kanila. She was my classmate since nursery. Madelaine please-"

"Hindi ako nagseselos!"

"Yes you are..."

"Sabi ng hindi eh!"

Madelaine's nostril's flare outward, her eyebrows wrinkled and even the corner of her mouth was tensed. Yes, she was jealous with Faith, but she was trying to hide it. She hated how Gian and Faith's cheeks touched. She hated how that woman looked at his man like she was discreetly removing Gian's clothes with her eyes. She hated when he held her hand to convey his gratitude.

"Next time, iiwas na ako sa beso-beso. Lagi mo na lang ginagawang big deal yun. Kahit yung OB mo, classmate ko yun sa med school...okay? Ano bang iniisip mo? Ha? I won't do it, kung anuman yung nasa isip mo. Graduate na ako sa mga ganun. I'm a family man now, hindi ako gagawa ng bagay na ikakasira natin." Inabot niya ang kamay ni Madelaine at hinalikan ang likod ng palad nito.

"Talaga? Hindi mo-"

"Hindi, I will never do that to you. You are the only woman in my eyes. Ikaw lang Madelaine. Huwag ka na magselos, bawasan mo na yang pagiging selosa mo. Hmmm?" Hawak pa din niya ang palad ni Madelaine habang ang isang kamay naman niya ay nasa manibela.

"Si Faith ba...hindi mo ba yun ex? Para kasing..."

"Ikaw nga ang first girlfriend ko diba? Paano ako magkakaroon ng ex?"

"Eh di ano...yung ano...alam mo na yun." The word FUBU was so embarassing for her. She hated utterring those words.

"No. Sixteen lang siya nung maging sila ni Ethan. Ano ka ba? But..."

"But?" She crossed her arms and narrowed her eyes.

"Wala. Joke lang, nagiging tigre ka na naman." His shoulder was shaking as he supressed his laugh. He had memorized her jealous face and it made him smile thinking that Madelaine was head over heels to him.

"Kasi naman eh! Anong but!"

"Wala nga, joke nga lang yun. Ito naman. Sayong sayo lang ako, okay? Walang aagaw sa akin, at hindi ako magpapaagaw. I am Madelaine's possession. From now on, no one can touch me except my future wife. Hmmm?" He held her hand tighter ang kiss the back of her palm again.

"GIAN!" Madelaine screamed in fear and panic. She shivered, her heart was pounding as if it would burst from her chest.

"GIAN!" Her breathing became faster and faster as she screamed the loudest scream she ever had.

"GIAN!" She kept on screaming until her mouth became dry. She couldn't believed what was happening.

Gian was driving when suddenly an elf truck loaded with steel bars stopped infront of them. Blood was gushing from the wound where the steel bars were stucked.
