Kung Ika'y Mawawala [complete!!!]

Chapter 33

"Hoy Shaun, pwede pa, paliwanagan mo nga itong kuya mo. Sabihin mo sa kanya kung sino yung Brandon na yon na nagdala sa ate ko sa Cebu."

"You found out about her husband?"

"FYI, kahit kelan hindi naging asawa ng ate ko yung bakulaw na yon. "

"Ok, I think we all know about that fact. But what have you found out about him? " tumingin sya kay Shaun. "I showed you his pocture and you didn't recognize him. Sino ba talaga yung Brandon na 'yon? " now Aldrin's interested.

"I didn't recognize him because he doesn't belong to our circle of friends. But we found out that he's a second cousin of non other than the mistress of darkness."

"Hmmmp! Pinsan sya nung Lovely na yon." Dagdag pa ni Kirsten.

"What?! Wait a minute. I've met all her relatives from their reunions, at wala akong nakilala Brandon."

"E syempre, paano mo makikilala yon, busy sa kakatago kay Ysabelle sa Cebu."

"What the hell!" It was her all along? She took away the woman I love? For what? Just to be with me? That is so sick! I'm such a damn fool!

"And you know this because?"

Napangisi si Kirsten. "Secret...."

"Hindi pwede mga sekreto ngayon. We have to straighten all the fact if we want to nail her. Baka naman nadadala lang kayo sa galit nyo kay Lovely. Granted, that she's not the type of person that you'll get along with, but that does not necessarily mean that you can pin all the blame on her."

"Sige, Ipagtanggol pa more. Kayo na lang kaya ang magsama! Lahat ng sinabi namin totoo and it is well documented. I have digged up the documents that will tie that scumbug to your ex-fiance. Unfortunately, wala pang makitang matinding ebidensya laban sa Lovely na yon. Unless, we can catch her this time. i'll see to it that she'll rot in jail."

"Nasaan ang mga dokumento? I want to see it."

"Secret."

She is so frustrating at times! Inilabas nya ang cellphone nya at may tinawagan na naman. Kanina pa sya tawag ng tawag ng kung sino-sino at madalas na binubukyawan nya ang kausap nya. I don't blame her, she's in so much stress right now, dahil nawawala na naman ang ate nya. Sino ba naman ang hindi mapaparanoid? It has been traumatic 5 years ago, what more pa ngayon na kasama pa ang bata sa nawawala. I should never have left them. Kung alam ko lang na posibleng may kinalaman si Lovely sa pagkakawala ni Sab dati, sana ay naprotektahan ko sila.

Talagang nasa huli ang pagsisisi. I can't bring back time to correct my mistakes, but I can do my best to find them. Nagtatawag na din ako kanina ng mga pulis at imbestigador, pero hanggang ngayon ay wala pa ding resulta. I hate all this waiting, na para bang wala kang magawa. Hindi pa din considered as missing si Sab dahil wala pang 24 oras na nawawala. But my gut tells me that Sab and Clyde is in danger. And I have to find them and fast! But how?

I took out my cellphone and dialed a number. Hindi sinasagot ang tawag but At least it's ringing. I kept on trying until finally she took the call.

"Spencer, is it really you? Sinasabi ko na nga ba at hindi mo ako matitiis."

"Lovely, where is she?" Noong narinig ng mga kasama ko ang nabanggit kong pangalan ay napatingin silang lahat sa akin. Si Kirsten biglang ibinaba ang cellphone nya at akmang aagawin ang telepono ko. Pero bago pa nya makuha ay nailauo ko na sa kanya ito at hinawi sya ng marahan para lang hindi nya maabot ang cellphone ko. I put my index finger on my lips to signal them to keep quiet, then I put her on loudspeaker.

"Huh? I don't know what you're talking about. Who's her?" 

"Don't play stupid on me Lovely. I know that you know what I'm talking about."
