Code: ICE (Code Series #1)

Chapter 4: Mirror

"She's your daughter!"

"My daughter? Nagpapatawa ka ba, Cherry? Look at her! That white skin that almost milky! That brown long straight hair! And the eyes! That caramel eyes! There's no Edison on her blood! Nothing even a single blood!"

I view the same.

Maputi si Mama, but not as white as mine. Her hair has natural black color, wavy and long. Her eyes was dark brown. How can two individuals with gray and dark brown eyes would have a daughter with caramel eyes?

It's impossible.

"If you don't want to believe me, then go. Get lost, Trevor. I will never go back to you."

Nag-walk out si Trevor sa bahay pagkatapos non.

Ayaw ni Mama na lumapit pa ako kahit kailan sa isang Trevor Edison but I do exactly the opposite. The day after that, I went to the Edison mansion. I face the devil in hell that day. But I don't care.

He shout at me for the whole day. He wants to kill me but he stop himself.

"Enroll in Ertha Academy for your high school." That's what he commanded.

"Pano naman ang gusto ko?" I asked.

"I'll do it." Wika niya.

"How can I be sure?"

Napabuntong hininga siya na para bang nagtitimpi lang siya at gusto niya na akong patayin.

He dialled something on his phone.

"Guard silently my wife. Kapag may nangyaring masama sa kaniya, I'll kill you by myself!" He commanded the person on the other line.

Gusto kong mapangisi nong araw na iyon pero pinigilan ko ang sarili ko.

"Now, my daughter.."

We had a deal. We live not as father and daughter but both business man.

After all the information I gathered about my so called father, I realized how dangerous he is and the environment he belongs. Agad akong nag-alala sa kalagayan ni Mama. Hindi ko man kamukha si Mama, alam ko na siya pa rin ang aking ina.

Para maprotektahan mo ang isang tao upang di masaktan, kailangan mo ng harang nakaya rin makasakit.

And I'm sacrificing myself. Even if it means losing my pride.. Even if my father will treat me like his dog.. His weapon. I'll do it for my Mother.

"Why didn't you kill her?"

Nakabalik ako sa kasalukuyan ng itanong iyon ni Trevor.

"The Organization said, Capture. Alam kong alam mo na sa assassin ang trabahong iyon. Hindi akin." Sagot ko.

"You should've do it by yourself. May I remind you, you should impress the higher ups." Aniya habang nakatingin pa rin sa araw.

Parang gusto kong mapangisi sa kanyang sinabi.

"They are impress. Even if I didn't kill her with my own hands. I traced one of their upper heads while having a convo. And he doesn't know."

Agad kong nakuha ang atensyon niya. Oh, Trevor.. How fool you are. Using me as your ofense and defense won't do good on you. Kapag nagustuhan ako ng mas nakakataas sayo, sigurado akong mas aangat ang posisyon ko kaysa sa iyo. That means, I can afford to guard my mother from you and from this organization. Don't you get it? You're a devil, but I'm more evil.

You're digging your own grave.

"Who?" He asked.

Hindi ko siya sinagot at nagsimulang maglakad..
