Chapter 2
1175 Words
"Come on Lucifer ,it was just two months ago,give her a break"
"Kaya mo ba o Hindi?"
Inilapag ni Lihra yong picture sa lamesa ko at walang ganang tumigin sakin.
"What can you offer?"
Cunning.
"Your removal in Kodak"
Napataas ito ng kilay na para bang nakarinig ng trivia.
"I will convince my brother for your removal.Nang makawala ka na sa manloloko mong asawa "
Napasipol si Lihra na tila pinag-iisipan yong sinabi ko.I don't know what to offer to the woman who already have everything.Opps,Lihra just lost her family to her husband's mistress.
Multi nitong dinampot yong picture ni Dahlia sa lamesa at pinakatitigan iyon.
"This woman...is an enemy Lucifer"
I shrugged off.
"She didn't know"
"Dhoz is working on this organization right now.They are growing fast and strong around middle east-the Spiders"
"Hindi niya alam"
"She's still the daughter.Wala silang tagapag mana kaya ipinahanap siya ng ama niya"
"That stupid father,I can't really remember ,but surely he's an asshole"
"Want me to give you some insights?"
Natahimik ako.That would mean yes.Nagpatuloy si Lihra.
"Hinanap ni Ruben ang tunay na ama ni Dahlia ng makalabas siya ng kulungan.Since then,they have their eyes on her"
Napakunot ako ng noo.
"Nanggaling si Ruben sa kulungan?How did he know about my Dahlia?"
Nakakaintindi akong pinagmasdan ni Lihra.I cannot request for an investigation and read it all at once .
"Mary Margaret doesn't want Gon to do anything with Kodak,so as your father initial statement,you'll inherit the organization"
Alam niya iyon.There's this brawling issue about her brother's family.Muntik ng layasan ni Mary Ang asawa nito nakaraan.She warned him that if he won't to step down ,he'll lose his family.
"Cunning Lawrence be damned.Sa dami ng kasamaan niya,asawa niya mismo ang nagbigay ng karma niya"
"Ano sa tingin mo ang gagawin niya?"
Umupo sa Lihra sa swivel chair sa harap ko at isinandig Ang likod doon.
"They had told you about their history.
Walang humor na natawa si Lihra at napailing iling.
"Lawrence need to follow his wife wether he like it or not.Kung hindi baka magkaroon na naman ng coup at g**o sa kodak"
I smirked at the irony.My sister in law is really something.
"The five heads will not going to just sit and watch.Even my husband won't stay still if he sees Mary Margaret suffer.Masyadong importante ang babae sa kanila at sila ang nagpaubaya.If given a chance,those who are still single will surely going to take her if your brother hurt her in anyway or another.Oh i'm not sure.Surely even those who were married will dump their wives for her"
Isang patlang ng katahimikan ang lumukob sa amin.
"But Lawrence is willing to sacrifice everything for his wife and family.He is training you for sometime now to take his position"
Huminga ako ng malalim .Tumingin sa labas at napahaplos sa ulo.
"Why is everything complicated Lihra?I just want to live simply and take Dahli back."
Ngumiti ito ng mapait.Na tila sa lahat ng tao ito talaga ang mas makakaintindi sa kanya sa bagay na iyon.
"Bakit lahat sa akin mahirap?Bakit lahat kailangan kong pagdaanan bago ko makuha yong gusto ko?Bakit kailangan mangyari ang lahat ng ito?"
"Bakit kailangang maging anak si Dahlia ng isa sa mga head ng kalabang organisasyon.Why are we so f**k up?!"
Nabura ang ngiti nito sa labi at naawang pinagmasdan ako.
"Thats.....life"
Anito na na hindi narin mabigyan pa ng explinasyon ang mga nangyayari sa kanila.Lihra is as f**k up as him.Pakiramdam namin pinaparusahan kami ng langit kahit wala naman kaming ginagawa.
"That's why you gave her to Monasterio right?"
Bumalik yong tingin ko sa kanya.
"Because you knew they will not going to hurt her"
"Masasaktan siya kapag nakita niya kaming magkasama ni Zeirra"
"You already hurt her"
"Zeirra is still my fiancé.Nangailangan lang ako ng panahon para siguraduhin ang mga bagay bagay"
"You're really are a demon Lucifer.How do you know it was her,when you cant remember anything?"
"When my heart thump when I saw her at my office?Or when she respond to my kisses?When I became the happiest man when I took her virginity?Oh,when she become the faceless woman in my dream."
Lihra smiled at me.
"I can feel it.I can feel it in my bones and veins.I feel so contented and at peace.Nong'nakita ko yong kuwintas niya ,nasiguro kong siya iyon dahil nakikita ko ang kuwintas na iyon aa panaginip ko"
"How romantic"
I scowl at her.
"I already hurt her by trying to save what's left for us.Siguradong hindi niya ako mapapatawad.And now this,Dahlia can't be part in all this.Simpleng buhay lang gusto non'"
Tumayo si Lihra.Kinuha nito ang picture at inilagay sa bag.I wonder how she look so innocent when its the other way around.Mahaba at makintab ang buhok nito na abot hanggang bewang.Maliit at maamo ang bakas ng magandang mukha.But you better stay away from her.
"Okay ,that convince me,dadalhin ko siya sa isla mo"
I bite my lip to suppress a smile.
"But this world is too cruel.Your forgotten past is erased for a reason Lucifer.Siguradong masasaktan ka kapag nalaman mo kung anong nangyari sa iyo"
Huminga ako ng malalim
"I'm ready"
"Dahlia is in the process of moving on"
"Who said she can move on?Hindi siya puwedeng mag move on"
"Asshole"
"Kung kailangan kong bumalik sa dating ako,kahit wala lahat ng karangyaan at kapangyarihan na ito okay lang.Simpleng buhay lang naman talaga ang gusto ko.Nong makita ko siya nagbago yong mga plano ko.I keep forgetting her.Ito na siguro yong panglimang beses na maalala ko siya kahit paano at ayaw ko na siyang makalimutan.Kailangan ko siyang makasama para hindi ko siya makalimutan."
"Lucky woman.Sana naging katulad ka din ng asawa ko.Thunder is willing to do everything...for his mistress."
"Maraming lalaki move on"
"Easy said than done"
"You're beautiful Lihra.Kapag nakapag move on kana,siguradong maraming manliligaw sayo.You just need to see your worth.
"He dump me as easily as how you dump your fiancee.May mga taong hindi naman masyadong importante sa atin at nagstay lang sila sa atin dahil sila ang kailangan natin nong mga panahong iyon.
Ngumiti ako ng malungkot.
"Zeirra is important to me its just that....I find my reason for living.She knew it.She will understand "
"That's not how the world works devil.Hindi ko alam kung anong kayang gawin ni Zeirra para sa pagmamahal.But I commend your disposition.Pumili ka agad.Si Thunder walang bayag,imagine keeping his wife and his mistress in the same house."
Ramdam ko yong gigil ni Lihra.
"He's one of the heads.Wala akong magagawa kundi magalit nalang din sa kanya"
Lihra prepare to go.Muli siyang tumingin sa akin.Nanunuri.
"This will be b****y Lucifer."
Napakuyom ako ng kamao.
"Can I have Sean and yours,support?"
"What can we do?You will be the next leader of kodak,don't worry"
"Wala sanang makakaalam nito"
Napangisi si Lihra.
"John Greg and Ruben will be a pain in the a*s"
"I'll ask Theodore to take care of them"
Naglakad na ito palabas ng office ko.
"Friday at 6 am,you will have her.Itali mo ng di na makatakas"
