"More reason to kill her." Diin ko.

He let out a heaved sigh as we grew silent.

"I can already see the building. I'll find a spot where you can completely hide while I call her and tell her that I'm here to help."

Hindi nagtagal ay nakarating na nga kami sa abandoned warehouse. David led me to the back door where I can enter and hide while he distracts Reese and his men.

"You know how to shoot?"

I nodded shakily, "I-I've tried it in a shooting range."

"How many points did you get?"

"Forty eight."

"That's good enough, have you shot a person before?"

"Are you fucking kidding me—"

"With that rage, I bet you can do it perfectly."

"I can handle it, David. J-just please.. distract them while I look for Khio."

In the end he just nodded at me before giving me a hug which I didn't reciprocate. He told me that he'll call Reese once he got back to the car and gave me a burner phone which I'll be using to call the police later and so he can still contact me.

My breath became shaky as I held on to the gun.

Am I scared? definitely. But I'm more scared of losing Khio than being in this dangerous situation.

I was getting impatient since I have been here for a couple of minutes already, pero agad din iyon nagbago when I heard footsteps followed by a conversation from two men.

Kaagad 'kong idinikit ang tenga ko sa likod ng pintuan para marinig ng maigi ang pinag-uusapan nila.

"Sa tingin mo ba papayag si Madam Yesenia na matikman natin yung bata na 'yon?"

"Mapapakinabangan pa ni Madam eh, bawal pa. Pero tangina, pre. Mukhang jackpot talaga tayo ngayon, madami tayong pera na makukuha at sabi pa ni bossing may tip pa daw tayo sa kanya bago ito umalis sa pilipinas."

"Hindi naman siguro sasabit 'tong plano? Pinaghahanap na daw ng pulis si Madam."

I felt sick in my stomach when I heard him say that.. he's not possibly talking about Khio, right?

Thinking about that made me want to put these bullets in their head, but I have to be careful. Where the fuck are you David?!

My grip on the gun tightened as I continued to eavesdrop on them.

"Wala na tayo diyan, protektado naman tayo ni bossing, tsaka sa tingin ko mahirap din kalaban si Madam Yesenia. Sa pagkakaalam ko.. leader daw 'to ng Silorojes cartel sa Mexico. Hindi 'yan basta-bastang mahuhuli ng pulisya."

"Kung sabagay. Balita ko nga maski si bossing ay naging sunud-sunuran niya na rin. Tanginang 'yan, talo sa babae." Tumawa pa ito habang sinasabi niya iyon.

They kept on talking to each other with some shit I didn't even care, until I heard heels walking down the stairs and just by her voice and the way she spoke Spanish, I already knew who it was.
