Perfectly Imperfect (The Perfect Girl Sequel)

Chapter Twenty One

KAZUMI

Pinilit kong tumayo kahit na ang sakit ng ulo ko. Ikaw ba naman sipain sa ulo ng babaeng may takong tapos ang lakas-lakas pa! Gusto ata niyang mawalan ako ng malay?

Pero joke! Gusto niya lang akong mahilo para mas may advantage siya.

Swerte siya, nasa mood ako ngayon. Kanina ko pa siya pinagbibigyan eh.

"3 minutes rest and the players will be ready for the second round!"

I walked to the edge where my gang mates are and sat in the stool.

"What were you thinking?"

"Were you trying to get killed there?"

"You should've fought!"

"Shut up guys!" Sigaw ko. Ang iingay kasi! 'Di ko na nga alam kung sino ba 'yong nagsasalita eh.

"I know what I'm doing! Ganoon ba ka-weak ang tingin niyo sa akin?" 'Di makapaniwala kong tanong.

"Hindi naman sa gano'n we're just concerned–" before Cleo finished her sentence, Anne cut her off.

"You weren't fighting on purpose."

"That's right." I smiled. At least one of them gets me. I mean, ganoon na ba sila ka-slow? Duh?

"But what if you got a concussion? She kicked your head pretty hard, girl." Cee said kaya napalingon ako sa kanya.

"I can handle that. Parang 'di mo pa ako kilala." I said and she just smiled back.

We got interrupted when the announcer called us again. Before I got to go in to middle of the ring, I drank some water first and what can I say, I tasted blood. Well, she punched me in the face, what do I expect.

"Ready for the second round, Death?" she said while smirking. Clearly, she's out of her mind. Ang yabang! Eh I lost on purpose. Wag lang siyang pa-kompyansa dahil for sure, talo na nga siya, mas matatalo pa siya.

"Oh, I sure am." Inangat-angat ko pa ang mga kilay ko and she looked really pissed.

Nang mag simula na, agad niya akong sinugod pero bago niya pa ako mahawakan ay bumaba ako, kaya naman nasobrahan ata siya kaya natapon siya sa mga lubid, which made her pretty mad. Because the crowd laughed at her.

"Ay, sorry! May nahulog kasi." natatawa kong sabi at 'di naman siya slow para maniwala doon, that's why she let out a frustrated shout.

Ulit siyang sumugod sa akin, and this time, sinalubong ko siya.

Agad ko siyang sinipa sa tuhod kaya napaluhod siya and I know, mas dumagdag 'yon sa sakit ng sipa ko. Dahil nakaluhod siya, tinuhod ko naman ang baba nya pero hindi masyadong malakas, I don't want this battle to finish yet.

"You crazy–"

"Oh yes I am!" sigaw ko sabay sabunot sa kanya at itinayo siya. Sumigaw-sigaw naman siya sa sakit.

"I thought I knocked you out..." bulong niya, but I clearly heard it.

"Well, I guess you chose the wrong person to fight." sinuntok ko siya, causing her to fall again and this time, dumugo ang ilong niya, but I'm pretty sure na hindi ko naman nabali ang ilong niya.

Because she was sitting on the floor, naisipa niya ako that is why I lost my balance. She took that opportunity to strangle me kaya napaubo ako. Not that I can't get her off of me, gusto ko lang masagad ang inis niya.

Nang napagod na ako sa pagkakasakal niya, tinulak ko siya kaya nabitawan niya ako. Kinuha ko 'yong pagkakataong 'yon upang tumayo. Tinignan ko siya ng nang-aasar.

"Oh ano, kaya pa?" tinignan niya ako ng masama bago bumangon at pinunas ang kanyang bibig. May laway ata?

"B-tch!" sinugod niya ako at dahil pagod na ako iniwasan ko siya at itinumba. Using my left hand, I grabbed her from behind at hinila siya papunta sa akin at sinapak ko siya. Mas lalong dumugo ang ilong niya na mas lalo niyang ikinainis.

Tinuhod ko ang tyan niya kaya napapilipit siya sa sakit. And lastly, I punched her stomach again causing her to spit some blood at dahil sigurado na akong hindi na siya makakalaban pa ay tumayo na ako.

Nag simula na ang countdown and I won.

I smiled and went to her direction. Nakaupo na siya sa gitna ng ring.

"I get to ask my question now."

"What do you want to know?" sinamaan niya ako ng tingin.

I smiled sweetly at her. Gusto ko siyang asarin eh. "Do you wanna go home now?"

Natawa ako sa reaksyon ng lahat ng marinig nila ang tanong ko. What do they expect? Me asking her who she really is? That's too predictable. Tsaka, I can use my connections to find out who she really is. But of course, I won't do that.

Why you ask? Because I like this game. I like the game we're playing. But I can assure everyone who's close to me that their safety is assured.

"Seriously? That's your question?" 'di makapaniwala niyang tanong pabalik sa akin.

"What do you think?" I started walking toward the exit kung saan natatanaw ko na ang mga kasama kong nakatingin sa akin with matching "seryoso-ka? look". "Anyway, I'm going now. Nice game even though you really didn't have a chance."

"I hate you!" narinig kong sigaw niya.

Well, lots of people do.

I smiled at myself. Mission accomplished.

Ang pahiyain si Heaven sa Gangster Dome.

That's for killing one of my assassin.
