"You were dying. But the unicorn's blood kept you alive. But it has consequences. You'll live a cursed life. You will turn into ashes before the clock strikes 12 on your 18th birthday. You'll feel the pain every single day. The feeling of slowly turning into ashes and slowly ripping your skin. Your wounds will never heal. And you will become immortal. And no one knows how to break the curse. Except the dragon slayer."

Bad dreams again! Kailan ba ko titigilan ng panaginip na 'to?! Dragon slayer, my ass! Saan ako hahanap non? Hellooo! We're living in 2017. Unicorns and fairies don't exist!

I fixed my bed before taking a shower. Yesterday was rough. We almost got caught. Gosh! Dapat talaga di ko na sinama si Jax eh. Panggulo lang sa trabaho.

Saktong paglabas ko ng shower room nang tumawag si Jax. Speaking of the devil.

"Hey, hey, hey, miss beautiful! Good morning!"

"What is so good in the morning?! Alam mo bang muntikan na kong mabaril kagabi? Hindi ka na nga nakakatulong, pabigat ka pa! Sa susunod na magkaroon ulit ako ng project at sumama ka pa, ikaw na yung papatayin ko!"

"Woah! Woah! Easy!"

Easy ka dyan? Sa gitna ng patayan, magpopropose?

"Ano ba kasing nasa utak mo at ginawa mo 'yon? Alam mo namang delikado yun di'ba?"

"I'm sorry. I just badly want you to be my girlfriend."

I ended the conversation. I hate that guy! Tss!

The phone starts ringing again. I-eend ko na sana pero number lang yung nakalagay. This must be a client.

"Hello?" Panimula ko.

"I heard you kill people for money right? Could you please kill Mr. Fuentes?"

I know him! Siya yung mayabang na CEO. Matagal ko na talaga siyang gustong patayin eh.

"The young CEO? I heard he has a lot of bodyguards. But don't worry, mas magaling ako sa kanila. So, when do you want him dead? The higher the price, the earlier he'll be killed."

"5 million. I'll just send it to your account."

"That's a bit low. Maybe you wanna wait for a week?"

"How about 20 M's?

"Deal." I said as I end the conversation.

Tomorrow will be a tough day!
