"You bitch!" She yelped.

"What the hell?" Natatawa kong usal. "Damn. Is it normal for cats to be this grumpy early in the morning?" I teased. She glared at me with those firing bloodshot eyes. She literally look like a freaking mess.

"I knew it." She uttered as she tried to attack me but unfortunately those chains are such a burden. "I knew from the beginning that you're a monster! Isa kang demonyo!" Wala sa sarili akong napahalakhak.

"Monster? Demonyo?" I licked my lips in annoyance. "What are you? A 12 years old kid?"

"Ano bang kailangan mo saakin, Athena?! Nakuha mo na ang lahat, what else do you want from me?!"

"Not everything, Haven. As you can see, you still have your life." I stated without hesitance. "Buhay mo kapalit sa buhay ko at sa buhay isang taong walang kaalam alam pero dinamay mong hayop ka." My lips were trembling and my jaws are clenching in so much anger.

"Oh that little secretary of yours? Kung nandito ka sana edi sana ikaw yung nam--" Mabilis ko siyang nilapitan at sinuntok dahilan kung bakit hindi niya natapos ang gusto niyang sabihin. Pero matunog lang siyang napangisi at matalim akong tinignan. "Yes, I was the one who ordered someone to attack her but you're as much to blame for her death. Your were the main target pero dahil wala ka at nagpapakasaya sa malayo, of course I needed to target someone else then. Pero hindi ko alam na sibrong espesyal pala sayo ng babaeng iyo--" This time I choked her.

Gigil na gigil kong hinawakan ang leeg niya hanggang sa maubo na siya mahirapang makahinga. At nang makita kong nahihirapan na talaga siyang makahinga patapon ko siyang binitawan dahilan kung bakit napasalampak siya sa sahig.

"You don't deserve to die easily." I said as watched her gasped and coughed for an air. "You were always this stupid and weak, Haven. Mas lalo kapang pinahina at pinabobo ng kainggitan mo. Rest well, we will be having a fun game tonight."

I glared at her for a couple of seconds before deciding to go out. As the door locked I leaned my back on it as her words replayed in my head.

"Yes, I was the one who ordered someone to attack her but you're as much to blame for her death."

"And that's maddeningly true." I whispered. I frustratedly slammed my hand to the door behind me and wiped my tears. "Kahit bagohin mo pa ang ikot ng mundo, Haven, hindi mo parin mapapalitan ang katotohanan na ikaw ang may kasalanan kung bakit nasa ganito tayong lahat sa sitwasyon na 'to."

Nagpatuloy na lang ako sa paglalakad para makapunta sa kwarto ko. Kumuha ako ng gunting at demeretso sa banyo. Inalis ko sa pagkatali ang buhok ko at maayos itong inilugay. At pagkatapos ay hindi na ako nagdalawang isip pang putolin ito gamit ang gunting. I cut my hair short so that it wouldn't be a burden to me. I was living for too long which made my hair longer. From waist length hair I cut it to neck length hair. Tinipon ko lahat ng pinutol kong buhok at itinapon iyon sa basurahan.

Pagkatapos kong magbabad sa bath tub at maligo eksaktong bumuhos ang malakas na ulan. Pumunta ako sa harap ng malaking bintana para pagmasdan ang buhos ng ulan. I was staring at it too much to the point that I haven't noticed my phone ringing. Mabilis akong umiling para matauhan ako bago ko kinuha sa ibabaw ng bed side table and cellphone ko. I frowned when I saw an unsaved number.

"Who is this." I seriously asked.

"It's Nathan." Bahagyang nawala ang kunot sa noo ko. "My apologies for calling you, I took your number from your secretary."
