Chapter 144: Premonition!
Isang linggo na ang nakalipas matapos mangyari ang habulan sa pagitan nila Sophia at ng mga autoridad.
They've go on with their lives as if nothing happened. While Glaiza seems to be anxious and keep her distance not just with Sophia but everyone.
"Why are you here?"
Ani Leo ng mabungaran sa rooftop si Glaiza na parang tulala at wala sa sarili.
"Why? Am I off limits here or you just expecting to see someone else—"
"Cut the crap!"
"Why you are making everything complicated?"
Hysterical na bulyaw ni Glaiza sa lalaki na ikinabigla naman ng huli.
"Your'e not with yourself!"
"Yeah. !"
Anitong ipinikit ang mga mata.
"I'm running out of time so please tell me, alam kong alam mo—"
"What if she's someone close to you gugustuhin mo parin syang mapahamak?"
Di mapigilang bulyawan ni Leo ang babae. Wala syang pakialam anu man ang iniinda nito, pero ang kaalamang gusto nitong saktan ang babaeng mahalaga sa kanya, makes him despised her.
"I don't know what you're talking about but yes! and I'm going to find her no matter what it takes!"
"You're crazy!"
Isang malakas na sampal ang ipinadapo ni Glaiza sa mukha ni Leo, halos matulig naman ang lalaki kung hindi lang ito babae malamang pinatulan na niya ito.
"What makes you think that her life is way more important than my own brother?"
"Brother?"
Naguguluhang tanong ni Leo, if Glaiza is Mondejar's daughter that makes her, his older sister.
Besides, Mondejar had only son at sya yon. Atleast that's what he knows, wala naman talaga syang masyadong alam tungkol sa kanyang ama.
"I'm not your father's daughter!"
"What do you mean?"
"Your father raise me up and give me his name but that doesn't makes me his daughter, for him I'm just an accessories"
"That bastard!"
Di mapigilang sambit ni Leo.
"That's why you have to wake up, bringing Hades granddaughter to him is like giving him another victim. When are you people will going to stop, when the worlds turns against all of you?"
"I don't care. .I just want to save my brother. He's the only one I ever had!"
Impit paring iyak ni Glaiza na para bang nagmamakaawa ito sa kanya. Leo find himself in dilemma, he wanted to help her but there's no way he's going to betray Sophia.
"Full yourself together, I'm going to do what I can do to save your bro—"
"No one can save him except me!"
Marahas na sabi ni Glaiza and walke out but she suddenly stop in her track.
"If I found her—she'll be dead!"
Matigas nitong sabi before leaving him. Napabuntong hininga na lamang si Leo ng mawala sa paningin niya si Glaiza.
Habang ang isang anino na kanina pa pala nakikinig sa kanila ay daig pa ang nabagsakan ng langit at lupa.
Naikuyom nito ng mahigpit ang mga kamao.
Nang hapong ding iyon hindi magkasabay na umuwi sina Rain at Sophia.
Because Rain has to serve his detention.
"You're home?"
Ani Rain ng tawagan niya si Sophia.
"Nope, I'm on the way—why?"
"Leo's mom's birthday tomorrow, I'm thinking of buying something for her!"
There's a trace of embarrassment in Rain's voice na bahagyang ikinatawa ni Sophia.
"How I wish, tomorrow's my birthday. I'm just wondering what kind of birthday gift will I receive from my kind little brother!"
"Oh shut up!"
Rain snapped just to hide his embarrassment.
"I love surprises!"
Sabagay ano nga ba ibibigay niya kay Sophia when that brat already had everything!
Palaka! Para sigurado talagang aatakihin sya sa gulat. Hindi niya mapigilang matawa sa naisip.
"Yeah. .are you laughing on me?"
"Nope—I just thought of giving you something really special in your birthday!"
Tinakpan niya ang mouthpiece ng hindi niya mapigilan ang sariling mapabungingis.
"What do you think should I buy for here?"
Natahimik bigla si Sophia ng marinig ang tanong ng lalaki.
Rain's mom's just near but she seems to be so far, so close yet so far, She snorts.
Kung tadhana nga naman ang mag biro, ano kaya mararamdaman ng mama nina Leo and Rain bukas? Her long lost son is just in front of her but she won't be able to recognized her.
"Hey you're still there?"
Sophia absentmindedly step on the brake, she dash a little because of the impact. She suddenly felt like being suffocated.
"It was probably guilt!"
Anya sa sarili.
Bigla naman syang natauhan ng marinig ang boses ni Rain sa kabilang linya.
"What happened—are you ok?"
Rain heared a loud squirm of the tire in the background, kaya't pati sya ay napahinto sa pagmamaneho.
"I'm fi. .fine!"
"If you can't drive—"
"That's impossible!"
She said pretending to chuckle but deep inside she's not feeling well. It's like a feeling of something that's going to happened.
Kinakabahan sya na hindi niya mawari.
"Buy a necklace that's simple but elegant, do you want me to come?"
"Thank you but I think I can manage, magtatanong nalang ako sa mga sales lady!"
"Ok"
Napansin ni Rain ang pagkatamlay sa boses ng dalaga.
"Sis—you're sick?"
"Not exactly, I'm not in the mood!"
"It's just a girl thing you know—gonna go drive safely!"
Rain was about to turn off ng marinig niya ang boses ni Sophia sa kabilang linya.
"Come home straight, if you don't want me to turn that place upside down!"
"Copy that!"
Kagyat namang ibinaba ni Rain ang cellphone at nag concentrate sa pagmamaniho.
Habang si Sophia naman ay deritso ng umuwi sa bahay, dahil sa pananamlay naisipan niyang manuod ng tv ng di sinasadyang masagi ng kanyang kamay ang baso.
Nahulog ito sa sahig kaya't wala sa loob niyang pinulot ang bubog ng bigla nalang syang makaramdam ng kirot at kasunod ng pagtulo ng dugo.
Mayamaya ay nakarinig sya ng malakas na pagkabasag at pag igik ng gulong ng sasakyan, She closed her eyes tightly and covered her ears with her hands.
It was too loud, she realized what she heard is actually a clash of cars. Dahan dahan niyang inimulat ang mga mata Sophia gasped in horror, when she recognized the person in there.
"Rain!"
She scream as loud as she can and realized it was just a dream, nagisnan niya ang sarili nakatulog sa sofa.
Nagmamadali syang bumungon at dahil doon aksidenti niyang natabig ang baso at nahulog ito sa sahig, she picked the chattered pieces ng bigla nalang syang makaramdam ng kirot at kasunod noon ay ang pagtulo ng pulang likido.
Dugo!
Naalala niyang bigla na ganoong ganoon din ang nangyari sa kanyang panaginip, she starred at her palm habang tumutulo ang dugo mula roon.
It was like a premonition!
"Princess—what on earth is going on?"
Pukaw sa kanya ni Claire, bigla naman syang natauhan, napahagulgol syang bigla iwan niya kung bakit pero talagang masama ang kanyang kutob at hindi sya mapalagay.
"Where is Rain?"
"Hindi ba kayo sabay na umu—"
"Where is Mike? Please tell the control tower to find him right now!"
Hysterical niyang utos.
"Right away!"
"Rain!"
Anya sa pagitan ng paghikbi, she dialed his number pero bago paman niya mapindot ang call button nakita na nya sa screen ang number ng lalaki.
Nanginginig ang kamay na kaagad niyang sinagot ang naturang tawag.
"Rain are you al—"
"Sis, someone is chasing me!"
Kaagad na bungad ni Rain sa kanya at halata sa boses nito ang takot at pagpapanic.
"Calm yourself and just drive—ok?"
Sophia run into the control tower in barefoot, nagulantang naman ang lahat ng makita ang kanyang hitsura, napadako ang tingin ng lahat sa kanyang duguang paa.
Mike immediately covered her with his coats dahil naka pambahay lamang ang dalaga.
"Rain. .Rain is in danger someone is chasing after him!"
"What!"
Agad naman silang kumilos para e locate ang location ng lalaki.
"He's with someone else!"
One of the operator said ng makita nila si Rain sa monitor na kasalukuyang hinahabol ng di pa kilalang mga tauhan.
"Zoom it—oh my!"
Napasinghap sya ng makita kung sino ang nakaupo sa driver seat.
"Rain, what is Leo's mom doing in your car?"
Natahimik naman bigla ang nasa kabilang linya, he probably doesn't know na mama ni Leo ang kanyang kasa- kasama, at tama nga si Sophia.
Rain's meeting with his mom was purely coincidence.
"I don't know!"
"Hold on, I'm going to call someone!"
Hindi na inantay ni Sophia ang sagot ng lalaki, she dialed Leo's number.
"Your mom is with Rain, I don't know how it happened but someone is chasing after them—"
"What?"
Gulantang na tanong ni Leo.
"Who?"
"We could not confirm yet, I'm going to send you the location and open your line—you will be directly monitored in our system!"
Nagmamadali namang kinuha ni Leo ang motorbike.
"Please confirm if you are being connected!"
"Confirmed!"
Leo answered but before he even ride in his bike nakarinig na sila ng malakas na pagbangga ng sasakyan.
It was like their world stops.
"Rain!"
They all said in chorus.
