The Abduction [COMPLETED]

He's Getting Insane

[Phraea's POV]

Figure it out myself? Kahit ang pinakamatalinong tao ay hindi malalaman ang iniisip ng isang psychopath na katulad niya.

"You shouldn't have interfered." Bungad sa akin ni Evelyn nung makabalik na ako ng bahay. Nasa may lababo sila at ginagamot ni Rowena ang namamagang leeg ni Evelyn.

"Then you would have been dead right now. Nakaka-hassle kayang maglinis ng bangkay." Sagot ko matapos makapag-iwas ng tingin.

"What a b***h–" Nagbingi-bingihan ako at malakas na sinarado ang pinto pagpasok ko ng kwarto.

She's a bigger b***h than I am. I saved her life and she still hates me for nothing. Ganoon ba siya kainggit? I still haven't confirmed kung may gusto nga talaga si Garen sa akin or he's just trying to manipulate me... f**k, I don't have any idea what things he's capable of. Ilang linggo na akong narito at hindi ko parin mabasa ang galaw niya. Baka hindi ko na namamalayan at bigla na lang niya akong lunurin.

.

"What's this?" Napatayo ako nung pumasok ang isa sa mga tauhan ni Garen. May dala itong malaking kahon at nilapag sa may salas.

"Gifts, the two of you requested this right?" Napaawang ang mga labi nina Evelyn at Rowena habang nakatitig sa kahon.

"I shall leave now."

I was blankly staring at them while crossing my arms. Are they satisfied now? They got what they wanted.

Rowena opened the box and there were dresses, jewelries and flowers inside. There's also a red envelope. Evelyn took it and as she read, her forehead starts to creased. She looks dissatisfied after reading the letter, so Rowena took it as she's curious to know what the letter says.

"Let me see." Lumapit ako sa kanila at inabot naman ni Rowena ang sulat.

I gave you what you wanted. I hope this will stop the two of you from despising Phraea. Make sure to wear jewelries only when i'm not around.

"It's funny. All of this is f*****g funny. Garen is mocking us because of Phraea. He doesn't want to see us in jewelries but he insisted Phraea to wear the necklace that he personalized." Reklamo ni Evelyn na masama ang tingin sa akin.

"It doesn't matter who Garen favors. None of that matters as long as we survive." Natahimik si Evelyn dahil sa pagbibigay punto ni Rowena.

Yeah, she's right. I just don't get it why she's so jealous. She should understand the means of survival in this island.

It was around 5 pm and I was busy scrubbing the floor inside the restroom when the bell suddenly rang. I stopped breathing for a while and then I realized that it's another night to be a murderer. Hindi ko alam kung prostitute na naman o smuggler ang mapapatay ko ngayong gabi.

Evelyn is maintaining distance. Hindi niya ako kinakausap o pinapansin. Baka takot siya na masaktan muli ni Garen.

Napabuntong-hininga ako habang papalabas ng bahay. Hindi ko alam kung ginagamit lang ba talaga ako ni Garen, kung ginagamit man niya talaga ako... para saan?

I stared at Garen as he made an entrance in front of us. He's wearing a dark red suit, like a devil in disguise. I can also feel his eyes glowing in bright red and if I can only put thorns on his head, it would surely reveal his true demon.

Palihim akong tumingin kay Evelyn at gusto kong masuka nung makita ang paghanga sa kanyang mga mata. Her eyes are twinkling in amusement as if she's staring at something so perfect.

She's crazy about him.. and it's disgusting.

Tumingin ako kay Rowena at nakayuko lang siya, halatang takot at hindi komportable sa kung ano ang pwedeng mangyari ulit.

Garen's men started to bring out new victims– sinners perhaps and I froze when the last one is a young girl who I think is in primary school. She's wearing a white short dress and black shoes with holes, it looks old and I can judge that the girl came from a poor family... but why is she here? There's no way Garen is planning to kill her.

There were five of them at lahat sila ay babae. Tumingin sa akin si Garen dahilan para mapalingon din sina Rowena at Evelyn.

Nilapitan ako ni Garen at walang pasabing inabutan niya ako ng baril. Tumingin ako sa kanya at halos mapaatras ako dahil sa nakakapaso niyang mga tingin... mga tingin ng demonyo.

"You know what you have to do, sweetie. It's either they die... or you do," he said and it got my nerves tingling. I firmly held the gun as I point it to one of the ladies.

"H-huwag... huwag niyo akong patayin!–" It was too late. Kasabay ng pagputok ng baril ang siyang pagkawala ng mga luha ko. She was begging me to save her life but I just heartlessly pulled the trigger... I killed another human being and I don't think i'm deserving enough to live.

Mariin akong napapikit nung nagpaputok na rin sina Evelyn at Rowena.

"Mama! Papa! Hanapin niyo ako!" Hagulgol ng batang babae at kahit na may sako ang kanyang ulo, alam kong mariin itong nakapikit at nananalangin na makita siya ng mga magulang niya.

Hindi ako tumigil sa pag-iyak nung iminulat ko ang mga mata ko. Dalawa na lang sila ang natira. Ang babaeng katabi ng bata ay sobrang tangkad at nakasuot ng itim na suit jacket. "Kill me, please kill me... just let the little girl live. Please, i'm begging–"

"Enough with that f*****g word!" Sigaw ni Garen sabay paputok ng kanyang baril sa taas. "Beg, beg, beg... begging, f**k that word." I heard him mumbled as he brush his hair frustatedly.

Napalunok ako dahil sa kanyang inaasta... he's getting insane. "Kill those two. I want every single bullet pierced through their bodies."

That can't be right... I mean, none of this is right but this is too much. She's an innocent young girl, she's not a sinner.

Tumingin ako kina Evelyn at Rowena at napalunok sila habang unti-unti nilang tinaas ang kanilang baril na nanginginig ang kanilang mga kamay. Napailing ako at hindi makapaniwala sa kanilang gagawin kaya bago pa man nila maputok ang kanilang baril ay tumakbo ako papalapit sa batang babae.
