Just One Night [ Isla Azul Series #2 ]

Kabanata 1

Fiancé

I immediately wore my aviators pagkalabas ko ng eroplano. I needed to be extra careful, wala dapat makaalam na nasa Pilipinas na 'ko.

Even Kuya Raia didn't know about this. My only instruction was that, next week na kami mag - usap. I just couldn't go there yet, I needed to know all the information that I can get first.

I needed to know everything about Saint. If I'm going to play this war, dapat ay alam ko muna kung sino ang kalaban ko at kung ano ang alas ko.

Archer wasn't really that hard to find.

Mabilis akong lumapit sa kanya pagkalabas ko ng arrival area. And without a word, he escorted me to a less crowded place.

"Thank you for doing this," ani ko bago siya yakapin.

He chuckled.

"No problem. Come on, we need to move fast."

Tumango ako at agad nang sumunod sa kanya.

We're going to Isla Azul, the safest and the best place for me to hide.

Hindi na ako nagulat nang makita ko ang private jet na aming sasakyan. I guess mas nag - improve na ang way of transportation ng Isla.

Once we took off, I was too awestruck by the scenery to even think of anything else. The flight was smooth and only took us thirty minutes, bago lumapag sa hotel ng mga Gualtierre.

"Does your siblings know?" I asked him habang patungo kami sa kanyang office.

Umiling siya. Mabuti naman kung ganon.

I don't know how to describe Archer's job. All I know is that he can find anything or anyone.

Nakalatag na ang lahat ng information na gusto ko malaman sa kanyang table pagdating namin.

That's because I already told him everything. I even gave him the contract's copy hoping that it will help his investigation.

Inabala ko agad ang sarili ko sa pagbasa ng lahat pati ang pagtingin sa mga litrato.

I was holding Saint's picture with his fiancé when Archer asked me a question.

"What do you think?"

Nag angat ako ng tingin sa kanya.

I immediately saw his amused face.

"I'm so mad," I told him honestly.

He just laughed.

It's true though, I'm so mad!

Marami akong nararamdaman ngayon na hindi ko mapangalanan.

"I'm famished, I'll get us some food," aniya.

Hindi ko na siya nilingon at hinayaan na siyang lumabas ng kwarto. Muli kong binalingan ang picture. Hindi ko namalayan na nalukot ko na iyon sa galit ko.

How fucking dare you, Saint!

Napailing ako.
