Prologue

I tried opening the door pero naka lock.

Kinuha ko ang isang hair pin na suot ko at sinubukang buksan ang pinto. Few moments later, sa wakas nabuksan ko rin.

"Now, where should I start?," I asked myself.

Sinarado kong muli ang pinto at saka dumiretso sa table dito sa loob ng opisina ng bossing ko as of now.

"Ano ba yan, wala man lang laptop. It would be easier sana kung meron non. It's a bit harder than I thought," I told myself again.

I tried looking on shelves and other parts dito sa loob ng office. I even unlocked some drawers and cabinets but still, I found nothing.

"Nasan na ba kasi yon? Konting oras na lang ang meron ako. I should find that file before this place came into chaos," I said.

I tried looking all over the place again.

I was in the middle of searching for the file when I heard footsteps coming.

I look around the place and search for a place to hide. Agad akong tumakbo para magtago sa gilid ng malaking cabinet malapit sa table in front of this room.

I heard it when the door opened. They entered the room and started discussing something.

To make sure, I get my recorder and started recording their talk.

"Malaking kliyente ang mawawala satin bossing kapag hindi agad natin naipadala ngayong araw ang package," komento ng sa tingin ko ay tauhan ni bossing.

"Of course I know about it. Masyadong matinik ang mata ng awtoridad satin ngayon kaya kailangan nating makaisip ng diskarte para makalusot ang package," Bossing answered.

"Sa tingin ko bossing kailangan na natin ng tulong ng iba sa web," the other one said. Web? Is he talking about their organization?

"Contact Mr. Yul, tell him what he has to do. I'll check the web para malaman kung sino pa ang pwede nating hingan ng tulong," bossing said. The guy went out tapos si bossing naman naupo sa table at pinatong ang laptop na kanina ko pang hinahanap. Dala dala naman pala niya kaya di ko makita kita.

In the other hand, medyo kinakabahan ako sa pwesto ko ngayon. Kaunti lang ang distance from his table to my place. When he tried to move a little closer to this cabinet, lagot na talaga ko nito.

"Gotcha! Brix! Brix!," he shouted. I think he's calling the other guy earlier.

"Bwsit naman oh, bakit ba napakatagal ng isang yon," he stand up and walk outside. I guess he will look for the guy.

I took the opportunity kaya agad akong lumapit sa nakabukas na laptop at kinuha ang special weapon ko, ang flashdrive. I put the flashdrive on the laptop at agad na kinopya ang laman nito. Of course special ang flashdrive ko, it's faster than any other dahil kung mabagal to baka di na ko makauwi ng buhay. It's a big risk kaya, me being here is a huge risk. Buhay ko ang nakasaalang alang dito.

Oh no! They're coming again. Faster! Grabe pinagpapawisan na ko dito. Malapit na sila pero di pa tapos ang pagpapasa ng file.

The door opened, I'm doomed.
