Undercover Cinderella

CHAPTER 3

WARNING: a slight spg ahead. Read at your own risk.

[You're good to go, Virgo. Gotti is with Gambino. Make sure to keep an eye on Gotti only.]

Tumango ako kahit na hindi naman ako nakikita ni Mandy.

"Noted, Aries."

[Be careful.]

"As always. Labyu."

[Yuck.]

Humalaklak ako. I put away my earpiece and slid it inside the trunk. Inayos ko muna ang suot kong cream halter strap top. I paired it with my army green cargo pants and white saddle shoes. I placed half of my curled hair on my shoulder and check my face if my light makeup's still okay.

"Ganda mo," puri ko sa sarili ko matapos tignan ang sarili ko sa salamin ng motor ko.

Pumasok ako sa club. Dumiretso ako sa itaas kung saan nando'n kadalasan ang mga VIPs. Tama nga ako na nando'n si Gambino, with his personal bodyguards roaming around the club. Nasa tabi niya si Gotti na hindi man lang natatablan sa mga babaeng sumasayaw sa gilid niya at hinahawakan siya sa balikat, down to his broad chest and on his face.

Kumuha ako ng champagne sa counter at naghanap ng pwesto kung saan pwede kong matanaw si Gotti. For f**k's sake he's just there, sitting like a statue while Gambino's enjoying himself with liquors and girls.

Nandito lamang ako sa maliit na round table, surrounded with expensive men dancing with the beat and thrusting their hips to the women around them. Sumimsim ako mula sa champagne at sinilip muli si Gotti na tumayo mula sa sofa at may binulong pa kay Gambino bago umalis.

Binaba ko ang champagne at sinundan siya. Only to find out na nagbanyo lang pala. Kaya naghintay ako sa labas, nakasandal sa gilid ng pintuan. Habang nakatayo dito at nakasandal ay nakarinig ako na parang may pumalakpak sa loob ng banyo kung saan pumasok si Gotti. Sumilip ako nang konti at laking gulat ko nang may makitang nag aano yung babae at lalake na hindi ko kilala.

"I'm... cumming... faster..." The lady with fishnet outfit moaned as the man is thruster inside of her faster.

Dahil sa gulat ay napasinghap ako at napasigaw.

"Oh my God, live porn!"

Napatingin ang dalawa sa 'kin. Dahil sa gulat ay bigla na lamang nagsisigaw sa gulat ang babae at may lumabas pa sa.. Argh, kadiri!

"Get a room! What the fuck." Napahilamos na lamang ako matapos tumalikod. Though they weren't naked at dulot lang siguro ng alcohol sa katawan nila kaya akala nila na sa banyo nila sila gumagawa ng milagro.

Sa pagtalikod ko pa lang mula sa pintuan ay may nagsalita sa likod ko.

"Pasensya na kung kailangan mo pang makita 'yan but... This is an erotic club. What do you expect."

Oh, s**t.

"Kaya nga. It's my first time kasi and," inikot ko ang katawan ko paharap sa lalakeng kanina ko pa pinagmamasdan. Gotti. "... I guess I had to go. Masyadong nakakadiri dito."

I hear him chuckle. "You know, I have a perfect place for you."

Kinutuban ako. What, is he inviting me to do something like what these two idiots did? Don't tell me he's a f**k boy, too? Oh, good Lord, alam kong pogi 'tong kaharap ko pero hindi ko pa keri mapasukan ang perlas ko ng isang foreigner na hotdog.

"Saan?"

He pointed the exit door with his lips. "There's a diner beside this club. I hate this place either, kaya minsan ay doon ako tumatambay. Until my boss calls me to come over for home."

Oh... My... God. This is it.

Not to brag but I guess this mission is super easy to finish. Gotti isn't the guy I expected to be that strict when it comes to his boss, Gambino. Bukambibig niya ang problema niya tungkol sa strip club. Na hindi niya raw bet, he find girls with fishnet stockings annoying, alcohols and cigarettes, momol and almost doing it anywhere.

"So... What was your boss look like?" Pasimple kong tanong bago sinubo ang nirolyo kong spaghetti sa tinidor na nilibre pa niya. He ordered so much food that I think we cannot finish in one big bites.

"Sir Gambino? Mabait 'yon, bisyado lang. Lost his father when he was a kid. Ever since his parents died, he learned to stand up by his own and manage his family's business at a very yong age."

"Ano nga pala trabaho mo? Like, specific na trabaho. Were you his, like, highest level of security?"

Umiling siya bilang sagot. Bigla akong natauhan na hindi pala dapat ako magsalita nang sobra lalo na at hindi pa niya ako kilala. Baka masira ko pa moment ko. Kakakilala pa lang namin.

"I'm his personal assistant, at the same time, I also do duties to protect him kapag wala yung personal bodyguards niya," he casually answered, hindi napansin ang beyond the line na tanong ko kanina. 'Buti naman.

"Ah. Okay," sagot ko nalang at hindi na nagatubiling dagdagan pa ang tanong ko. Baka bigla nalang niya akong paghinalaan edi buking ako.

Nang matapos kami sa pinagkainan namin, he asked me if I still have anywhere to go dahil mag-isa lang ako at maghahating gabi na.

"I actually have a bike out there. You know, rebel kid wants to go out to ease my mind," tumawa pa ako para mawala ang awkwardness na nararamdaman ko dahil hindi ko alam kung paano lusutan lahat ng kasinungalingan ko.

"Nga pala, we talked all night and ate in a Diner. Pero hindi natin kilala ang isa't isa?"

Natigilan ako. Oh, s**t. Nagrehearsal pa ako kung paano ako magpakilala sa kaniya if ever I caught his attention. What the actual f**k?

"Oh!" I exclaimed as I try to reach my hand in front of him. "I'm Cindy Eleanor. You can call me Ella for short."

Ngumiti si Gotti at tinanggap ang kamay kong kanina pa naka-stretch sa harapan niya. "John Emmanuel Gotti."

I quickly grabbed my hand and fish out my keys.

"Nice to meet you, John. See you around the City."
