Thirty Five: Vien's One and Only Heiress

Icy's POV

Suot ko ang aking mask at ang pambabaeng damit na kadalasang sinusuot ni Icy. Lumabas ako sa kwarto at pumunta sa trono ko. Kitang kita ko sila, ang BDS.

"Ah-"

"Alam ko. Kailangan niyo ng tulong ko sa pagkawala ng kapatid mo," putol ko sa salita niya. "'Wag kayong magalala, gagawin ko ang lahat para mabawi siya."

"A---ano namang magiging kapalit ng pabor na ito?"

"Bakit, Mr. Connemara, gusto mo bang may kapalit?"

"Hin---"

"At dahil sinabi mo naman na 'yan, ang kapalit, ang shares ng Connemara sa Jacksonville at Beversonville? 100 billion dollars or just approximately 10 Billion dollars? Ano, take it or leave it?"

"Sige, kakausapin ko ang mommy't daddy ko."

"Hindi ba sabi ko tutulungan ko lang kayo? You know I can do it alone but I don't wanna get tired. Help me to help you. It's a privilege from me to say those words."

Tangent's POV

As I opened my eyes, I found myself in a dark and cold room. My hands and feet were cuffed to the chair, made me feel so numb. Tumutulo rin ang dugo mula sa ulo ko at ramdam ko 'yun sa mukha ko. If it's my time, let it be. Mamatay kung mamatay. Pero ayoko pa kung maaari. I still have my dreams.

Isang araw na rin akong hindi kumakain. Isang araw ng hindi umiinom, dahilan para manghina ako ng husto. I want to escape, but how? I want to scream, but I can't.

Bigla kong nakita ang liwanag na nagmumula sa pintuan nang mabuksan ito. Unti unting lumilinaw ang paningin ko sa mukha ng taong bumukas nun. Teka, buhay siya? Akala ko ba patay na siya?

"A-ate Diamond?"

I can read on her face that she's confused and puzzled. After a year I thought she was dead. But she is really dead! I saw her on the coffin! I saw her dead!

She laughed that made me confused. "Sorry dear, but I'm not Diamond."

"W-what?"

"Maybe that was my deceased twins who had been killed by that Icy, the Queen of Easterners. By the way, I'm Frea, the Vien's one and only heiress."

May kakambal si ate Diamond?

"Who are you by the way?"

"I'm Tangent Connemara."

"I mean, what's your connection with my stupid twin?"

"I-I'm the brother of her boyfriend."

"OH! HAHAHA," she laughed. "How sweet and traggic? Dapat sana nagpakamatay na rin 'yung kuya mo para Romeo and Juliet? Bwahahaha." Her joke was not funny. "Hmm, young boy, I know that your parents can't give us want we want. According to your accounts, kahit ipagbili niyo lahat, hindi parin sapat. So, I'm suggesting that... unahan mo na. Magpakamatay ka na bago ka pa pahirapan."

"Where are we?"

"Still in the Philippines. Kaya hindi mahihirapang hanapin ng mga magulang mo ang bangkay mo kapag patay ka na."

The only person who can save me is Icy, but the thought that she killed ate Diamond, I know that kuya Sine will be hurt if he knew that ICE is ICY who killed his GIRLFRIEND back then.
