The Culprit (UNDER REVISION)

Case 068: Stalker 👮

                                "Caught "

ALEXIS
It was very long and eventful day. Alexis wanted nothing but to take hot shower and plop down on bed.

She took a quick shower, pagkatapos ay pumili siyang ng malambot ng pantulog. Kanina pa niyang gustong hubarin ang suot na gown. Finally, she can change into something comfortable.

"Hi Alexis, musta ang dinner with the president?" obviously it was her annoying friend, Ena. Akala niya at tulog na ito kaya hindi na siya nag-iingay. Ingat na inga pa siya sa kilos niya iyon naman pala ay gising pa ito.

"Gising ka pa pala?"

"Nakaidlip lang, hindi nga ako makatulog ng maayos dahil hinihintay kita." Ena jumped out on her bed. "Ano kamusta?"

"Okay naman, masarap kausap si Mr. President."

"No... hindi iyon ang ibig 'kong sabihin."

Alam na niya kung ano talaga ang gusto nitong itanong. S'yempre chichika lang ito tungkol kay Alejandro. If that's what Ena wants to know, dapat niya bang sabihin na pinasandok siya ni Alejandro ng pagkain? That they go to the palace together and he even secured her seatbelt?

No! that would remain private between them. She wants to savor that little moment with Alejandro for herself.

"Wala...Okay? wala, goodnight Ena!" aniya at nagtalukbong na ng kumot. But as expected Ena keeps disturbing her.

"Hindi kita titigilan hanggat 'di ka nagkwekwento kaya magkwento ka na!"

"Okay!" She raised her hand like a suspect who already surrendering. "Mr. President grant Alejandro one request at 'yon ay gusto niyang hawakan ang kaso ni RDV."

She knotted her forehead bang maalala ang nangyari kanina. Alejandro looks so determined, that was intense when he talk to the President straightforwardly. Alejandro never look up on anybody and that's make him look more mysterious.

"Iyon lang? Anong bago d'on eh sila naman talaga humahawak ng kaso about kay RDV?

"No, minsan kasi hindi naman siya humahawak ng kaso. Minsan si Inspector Matt, minsan si Tobby at ang iba pa nilang kasamahan."

"Teka, bakit ba napunta kay RDV ang usapan? What I'm asking is what happened between you and Inspector Alejandro ha?"

"What do you expect to happen?" balik tanong niya dito. She try not to show any emotions so Ena can't have any suspicious. "Alangan namang mag-make-out kami sa harap ng president?"

"Patawa ka rin noh?" Ena rolled her eyes.

"Ewan ko sa'yo, I'm tired! Matutulog na ako Ena, goodnight." She closed her eyes not minding Ena's blabbering about.

KATH
The Valentine's day is coming, ika nga nila: love is in the air. Kath is one of the girls who's dreaming to have a valentino. 'Yong isang romantikong lalaking makaka-date sa valentines. Pero wala naman siyang boyfriend, so she just shrugged the idea. She needs to focus with her work, that's the best thing she have to do.

"Kath, may nagpapabigay sa'yo."
Nilapag ni Ella sa harap niya ang isang box ng mamahaling chocolate at isang tangkay ng bulaklak.

"Sino?"

"Hindi ko alam eh, nakalagay sa table ko, pero sa'yo 'yong pangalan sa card eh. Napagkamalan yatang table mo."

She opened the card, pero walang pangalang ng sender. She wondered kung sino ang nagpadala noon. Kinilig siya sa idea na may admirer siya, but somehow it's alarming. Medyo nakaramdam siya ng kaunting takot para sa sarili.
