章節 11: Chapter 11: Talk With The Devil
"WHAT are you doing here?!"
Kaagad kong tanong sa kanya at hindi pinansin ang kanyang pagbati.
Kinokontrol ko ang emosyon ko ngayon. Kahit sa totoo lang, nais ko siyang pilipitin sa leeg dahil sa kasamaang nagawa niya. At base sa ekspresiyon niya ngayon, sinasadya niya ang magkita kami ngayon.
Nagtaas ito ng kamay at humalakhak. "Chill, babe. I didn't come here para makipag-away sayo. Your glares are scary." His face still wearing the smirk that I want to erase.
"Where's Chanyeol?!" Mas lalo ko pa siyang sinamaan ng tingin.
"I don't know where he is. I've just come here to have a talk to you."
So, hindi pa nakakapunta dito si Chanyeol? Nakahinga ako ng maluwang nang malaman kong walang ginawa ang lalaking ito sa kanya.
"What the hell do you want?" I asked coldly.
"Let's talk about something bloody while you are waiting for Chanyeol. Have a sit." Inilahad niya pa ang kanyang kamay sa upuan para paupuin ako.
Wait, how did he know that I was waiting for Chanyeol?! Does he stalking me all the time?
"Yes. I am stalking you." He said. I looked at him in amused manner. How did he know?
"Your expression says what you want to say kaya alam ko kung ano ang naiisip mo ngayon."
I knew it. He was a good observer and he reminds me of Sage Buenavista. I must say that this person is not just my ordinary opponent that I can kill with just one hit of my gun. He has many resources and eyes in order to know what I was going to do. And sigurado akong alam niya ang ginagawa ko ngayon.
"Oh really? Do you sense what's going on in my mind, then?" My voice has sense of sarcasm.
"You are amaze and think of me as your dangerous opponent." He smirked and the arrogant in his face showed.
"Wrong. I am thinking on how can I kill you without using any weapons. I guess your observations couldn't work on me properly."
I saw him gritted his teeth but suddenly it turns out again into a smirk. He leaned closer to me and hold my chin.
"You are too confident to talk about me in that way, babe. You also forget that we are in a public place and if some students saw us, they might create an issue about you."
"Bring it on. I don't care." Panghahamon ko sa kanya.
He smile evily and caressed my cheeks. "You are beyond my expectations. I think I like you, now."
Marahas kong hinawi ang kanyang kamay sa aking pisngi at hinampas ko ang mesa sa pagitan namin. Nabasag ang basong ininuman niya na may laman pang kape ngunit hindi ko iyon pinansin. Masama ang tingin na ipinupukol ko sa lalaking nasa harapan ko na ngayon ay parang balewala lang sa kanya ang galit ko.
"I'm so sorry if I go beyond your expectations but can you please tell me what is your intentions to bring me here? For what? For supporting your stupid killing game?" Naiinis na turan ko sa kanya.
"You want to support my advocacy? I would love you to do that but that's not what I want.." His smirk suddenly fade away and his face regains seriousness. "I want you to be lend me your hand to help me in reviving this university."
"Lend your hand? Sorry pero kung iyan lang ang ipinunta mo dito ay makakaalis ka na." I scoffed and never stop from throwing glares at him.
"What do you mean by 'reviving this university'? Oh. It's about your advocacy, right? Killing some innocent people?" I sarcastically said. I can still remember the way on how Tiffany and Sunny killed and it makes me feel boiled in anger.
He chuckled on what I said. "I am not the one who killed them. They are the one who killed each other."
Mas lalo akong nairita. Ano bang nakakatawa sa sinabi ko?!
"YOU.ARE.THE.ONE.WHO.MADE.THIS.PLACE.INTO.HELL." Mariin kong sambit sa kanya.
He raised his hand in defeat. "Chill, Jessica. I am just creating rules in this school and I am not a killer."
"But your some stupid rules are killing those people!" Galit kong turan sa kanya. I can't control my composture anymore. Mabuti na lang ay walang masyadong mga estudyante dito kundi iisipin nila na nag-eeskandalo ako dito.
"Yes but I am just doing that for a change." His voice now are full of seriousness.
"Change? What do you mean?"
He leaned in closer again to me and held my chin. "You will know soon after you win this game, babe." He whispered on my ear.
Itinulak ko siya palayo sa akin at inundayan ng sapak. Pumaling ang ulo niya sa kaliwa dahil sa sobrang lakas ng pagkakasapak ko sa kanya. Nakita kong may dugo sa gilid ng kanyang labi pero hindi niya iyon ininda bagkus ay humalakhak pa siya.
"I didn't know that you are this violent, babe." He wiped his blood in his mouth.
"That's for harrassing me, Mr. Delacroix. And thanks to you, I already have the confidence to win this game." I said and then smirk.
"Okay but you shouldn't underestimate me. I have many men in this university. You will have only two choices, to surrender yourself to me or to win this game." I can sense the arrogance in his voice. Seems like he remind me of Kris Wu.
"I don't care on how many men that you've got because I can kill them with my bare hands. If I lose, then I will lose but I need you to remember what I am going to say." I eyed him.
"I am Jessica Jung and trouble is my middle name.." I added then show off a smirk. "You have so many men but bring it on!"
He didn't flinched a bit
"Too much confidence, huh? If you have punchline in your sleeves, I also have. Just remember what I was going to say.." He walked closer to me. "Be careful on trusting the people around you. They might be helping you but deep inside they are deceiving you."
Napakunot-noo ako sa sinabi niya. "What do you mean?" I asked at nilingon ko siya.
"If you want to know what I mean then try to seek for answer by yourself.." He waved his hand at naglakad palayo sa akin.
Hindi ko na siyang pinigilan na lumayo pa ngunit nanatili pa akong nakakunot ang noo sa sinabi nito. Somehow, I felt like I started to doubt myself. At sumagi sa isipan ko ang mga taong pinagkakatiwalaan ko ngayon. Yuri, Taeyeon, and The Great Twelve. May sikreto ba silang itinatago mula sa akin?
"Jessica? Are you okay?" Isang boses ang aking narinig mula sa aking likuran. Napapitlag ako sa kinatatayuan ko at nilingon ko kung sino iyon.
It was Chanyeol and he was looking at me like I am the most weirdest person in this world.
"Huh? "
"You seems to be bothered by something.." Nagkasalubong ang kanyang mga kilay.
"Nothing. What are you doing here, by the way?"
"Huh?" Siya naman ngayon ang nagtataka. "We have something important to talk about, remember?"
Muli kong naalala kung ano ang sadya ko sa pagpunta ko dito. "Oh, right. Sorry I was just carried away and making me forgot something important things."
He roamed his eyes all over the place. "May ibang pumunta ba dito?"
"Nakita ko lang na dumaan dito si Cedric Delacroix.." I said.
Bumahid ng pag-aalala ang mukha niya. "What? Tell me, did he do something to you?" He checked all over my body to see if I am alright.
"I'm fine. Hindi naman niya ako sinaktan." But he said something about all of you and it made me think that if you are real to me or not.
Gusto kong sabihin iyon sa kanya pero pinigilan ko na lang. I shouldn't blurted out things like that unless I seen it in my naked eyes. I must confirm it by myself.
"By the way, ano nga ba ang sasabihin mo sa akin? What's the result of your investigation? Bakit hindi nila puwedeng malaman iyon?" Sunod-sunod na pagtatanong ko.
He sighed at bumalik sa pagiging seryoso ang kanyang mukha. "You should brace yourself for what I was going to say.." he paused for a bit then his next words made me feel dumbfounded.
"Tiffany Montecillo was alive."
