CHAPTER FIFTEEN

WARNING: SPG. Read at your own risk, or better skip.

Dalawang araw nang wala si Trigger. He said he has errands to attend to. Natatakot naman akong magtanong tungkol doon kaya minabuti ko na lang na hindi alamin kung ano ang tintukoy niyang errands. Ni hindi niya sinabi kung hanggang kailan siya mawawala.

I was allowed to go outside of the penthouse whenever I please. Nag-iwan din siya ng black credit card at iphone para may gamitin ako kapag tumawag ito. He has one condition when I want to go outside, someone has to accompany me some sort of a bodyguard. May sarili rin akong driver na maghahatid sundo sa akin.

I stayed in the penthouse the duration of two days. I patiently waited for him and his calls. Pero wala itong paramdam. I tried to call him several times but he was declining my calls.

The penthouse felt empty when he wasn't around. Part of me misses him, I need to admit that and I hate myself for feeling that way.

Sa inis ko kay Trigger napagpasyahan kong lumabas para mag-shopping ng sumunod na araw ng hindi ko nakita ang anino niya. Bored na bored ako sa penthouse, puro netflix movies lang ang naging karamay ko sa nagdaang mga araw.

The bruises I got were healing fast.

Wearing a white long-sleeve folded in three fourths, paired up with a pink mini skirt and black wedge heels, umalis ako ng unit, I also wore pink glasses to match my outfit. I tried to make myself not recognizable.

Different stories were aired on the television. Na-heat up din ang topic ng bagong nali-link kay Trigger sa katauhan ko. And the media are eager to know everything about me. Ang buong akala yata talaga nila ay mayroon kaming relasyon ni Trigger o mag-asawa na kami.

Agad akong sinalubong ng dalawang goons nang mamataan ako ng mga ito. They are both muscled men and good-looking. May kausap sa telepono iyong isa.

"Yes, Wolf." I heard him say before the call ended.

Mukhang kausap nito si Trigger base sa huling sinabi ng lalaki. Kaya mas lalong nalukot ang mukha ko. Is he ignoring my calls on purpose? I rolled my eyes when realization hit me. Why should I call him in the first place and why should he answer the calls?

He's the boss and he owns me now ngayong wala pa akong laban sa kanya.

"Good morning, signora." Nakasunod ito sa paglalakad ko. "Where are we going?" he asked with his heavy accent English. Gusto ko sanang irapan ang lalaki.

"Uh, m-mall," I stuttered.

Honestly, I didn't know how to handle them. I never had bodyguards following me around. Si Xiana ang meron, she's more known to the public than I was.

Wala nga halos nakakilala sa akin bilang Eduardo maliban na lang kung talagang nagpakilala ako sa mga tao. I received unwelcome glances from them.

"You don't have to worry, signora. We'll keep our distance as commanded by the Wolf himself to make you comfortable with your business." One of the goons said emotionless.

"T-thank you." I sighed.

Mabuti naman kung ganoon, their presence makes me feel awkward and uncomfortable.

Bumungad sa labas ang nakaparadang Lamborghini na hindi ko alam kung anong model, nasa labas ang driver at pinagbuksan ako. It should be Trigger doing this. Pero hindi rin naman ito gentleman.

Ang dalawang goons naman ay sumakay sa ibang sasakyan pero kasunod lang namin.

Hindi naman naging mahaba ang b'yahe. Pumarada kami sa pinakamalapit na mall. I silently thanked the driver and went out of the car. Hindi ko nakita ang mga goons na kanina lang ay kasunod namin, but they were probably just lurking around.
