NURSE MADELAINE

CHAPTER 56: Five Million

"SHIT! ANO BA CARL! MUNTIK NA YUN! NAGPAPAKAMATAY KA BA! ANG GAGO MO TALAGA KAHIT KELAN! ISUSUMBONG KITA KAY MISSY!"

Carl is swerving between lanes and cutting off other drivers in the middle of the road while following Gian's car.
Ignoring and not adhering with the signs or traffic lights. He is also making dangerous maneuvers.

"Masyado ka namang nerbyoso. Hindi ka mamatay kapag kasama mo ako. Ano ka ba? Alam yun ni Missy, nakita mo na ba kung paano mag-drive ang asawa ko? She is more reckless than me. She is a badass bro! Mas mamamatay ka sa takot kapag siya ang driver mo. Try it! Maiihi ka sa kaba. Kaya kahit isumbong mo ako, tatawanan ka lang nun. Kahit magpustahan pa tayo." Kindat nito kay Nathan sabay tawa nang maiwasan niya ang pagkamuntik-muntikang pagdikit niya sa isang kotseng nilampasan niya.

"Ewan ko sayo! Akala ko ba si Gian ang nagpapakamatay sa bilis ng pagpapatakbo niya, eh mukhang tayo naman yung unang mamamatay sa ginagawa mo." Kumalma na siya at huminga ng malalim.

"I'm trying to save Gian from dying. He was so lost, ngayon ko lang siya nakita nagpatakbo ng ganyan kabilis. Huwag kang mag-alala, you won't die Nathan... okay? Trust me." He said as he firmly grip the steering wheel on one hand, the other hand shifting the gears.

"This is the best way to break-in my newest toy! Gian can never beat me Nathan! No matter what he do, hindi siya mananalo sa akin sa karera!" Parati silang nagkakarera noon, pero kahit kelan ay hindi natalo si Carl.

"LET'S GET IT ON BABY! HOLD ON NATHAN!" Stepping on the gas pedal and putting his speedometer around 300 mph.

Bugatti Chiron is the world's fastest car, and Carl had it a week ago.

"Kapag ako namatay Carl! Talagang-"

"Hindi ka pa mamamatay, di mo pa nga napapasagot si Arylle eh." Putol nito sa kaibigang walang ginawa kundi ang magreklamo sa pagpapatakbo niya ng mabilis.

Being anxious and angry, Gian drove erratically. Losing his control for the urge to speed. He wanted to see her right now. He wanted to explain everything that had happened. He wanted to apologize, but above all, he wanted to hold her tightly and say how much he love her.

He went to her apartment, but she was not there. He also went to Arylle, but again, Madelaine was not around. Gian went to all of her friend's houses, but he didn't found her. He also went to Madelaine's hometown but Gian regretted it. He just made her family nervous and worried.

Arylle was also tense, her bestfriend is not the type of person who will leave without notifying her. She knew how devastated she was, but instead of calling Arylle, she didn't.

"Okay! Here we come Gian!" Carl said while tailgating him.

Naabutan niya si Gian kahit pa napakalayo na ng agwat ng distansya nila. Alam niyang hindi legal magpatakbo ng ganun kabilis, pero wala siyang pakialam. Kailangan niyang maabutan ang kaibigang tila wala sa sarili. Kanina pa nila siya sinusundan. Alam ni Carl na hinahanap nito si Madelaine, maging siya ay ginamit na din ang impluwensya niya sa kinauukulan para lang mahanap ang dalaga.

Napapikit na lang si Nathan nang mas lalong bumilis ang takbo nila para malampasan ang kotseng minamaneho ni Gian.

"C'mmon Gian! Stop that fucking car! Kung ayaw mong mamatay tayong tatlo!" Sigaw ni Carl bago lampasan ang kotse ni Gian.

He speed up through the intersections and tried to cut him off by suddenly stopping and putting all his lights on. But Gian ignored it. They are just one hundred meter apart.

"CARL! ANONG GINAGAWA MO! ONE WAY LANG TO!" Nathan shouted when he heard the friction of the tires while Carl is reversing it, facing Gian's car.

"Eh di gagawin kung two way, problema ba yon? Kung ayaw niyang tumigil, sasalubungin natin siya." Nang maiharap na niya ang kotse sa gawi ng kotse ni Gian, mabilis na naman niyang inapakan ang accelerator at literal na sinalubong ang kotse ng kaibigan.
