Ambushed Heart

Two

"TELL US about everything, the woman who saved you and the man na hostage din na kasama mo. We dont know baka masama yung babae at hinostage yung lalaki at manghingi siya ng ransom, or worst baka patayin niya."

For an unknown reason my blood boil with what the police said. Like I dont wamt anybody insulting her. Oh, well ig should be normal, that woman saves my life after all.

That woman saved me, I dont care kung masama siya! It wont change a thing na iniligtas niya ako.

Those amber eyes that shouts braveness and a liltle bit of naughtyness.

That crescrent with a crying eyes and have a curssive unknown words tattoo on her side hips.

That kissable lips when she smirks.

That sweaty four pack abs that look so hot.

And that black straight hair in a ponytail.

Those are the only things that I can remember! How the f**k did I forgot it!? Aside from the scene with Federick and those traits of the woman ay wala na akong maalala.

I want to remember all. I want to see her again! To personally convey my gratitude for saving me from the bastard Federick.

"I told you! She's nice, she helps me and that guy seems close with the woman I'm sure she will never hurt him!"

Its been a week since I was kidn*pped at hanggang ngayon ay hinahayaan ko parin na tanungin ako ng mga police dahil din sa kagustuhan kong makita ulit siya. But I couldnt stand these police saying that she might be a bad woman because of these and that. 

"Could you all please leave? I dont want to talk anymore! Get out of my house now!" I know it was rude of me, but It just came out naturally from my mouth.

Thankfully my mom came and talk to them and lead them to exit my room.

Nang mapag isa na ako sa aking kwarto ay agad kong inaalala ang lahat. But aside from Federick k********g me, helping the half naked guy that I didnt even remember the face as well, the death of Federick, how his brain explode on that abandoned buikding, and the explossion of the abandoned building, wala na. Wala na akong maalala pa.

The only clue that I have is the Amber eyes, the tattoo, her leather clothes and the abs. But I know for a fact na maraming tao ang may amber eyes, may tattoo may leather clothes at may abs. So, how the f**k would I see her again?! But, I also know that the tattoo could be personalized! It coukd be personally designed!

Hinawakan ko ang ulo ko ng muli itong sumakit. Everytime na pinipilit kong makaalala ay sumasakit lagi ang ulo ko.

Nang maradaman kong medyo humupa na ang sakit ay siya namang may kumatok sa pinto ko.

"Can we come in son?" Its dad. He must be with mom.

"Its not locked" with what I said mom and dad enter my room looking at me with worry.

"Mom, dad. Dont worry Im fine"

"Im sorry anak, for what your tito di--"

"Dad! Stop it! He's not my uncle! Because he's not your brother and please stop saying sorry, its not like youre the one who kidn*pped me and besides Im now safe. Im fine, perfectly fine." my dad sigh with what I say. Agad namang hinagod ni mommy ang likod niya. I smiled because of my mom's little but sweet gestures to dad. She's always like that to dad lalo na pag nasasaktan si dad, kung nafufrustrate at kung nadidisappoint si dad. Mom is always at his back not saying anything just rubbing dad's back until dad would calm down.

"If only I insist on giving you a body guard--"

"Dad! No bodyguards please not that again, we already talk about it"

"But clev, you need it ayaw na naming may mangyari pang masama sayo just like what happened last week"

This time its mom who spoke.

"Mom, dad. I told you two didnt I? I will take care more of myself hindi ko na hahayaan na mangyari to ulit"

my mom and dad knows that I always do whatever it takes to win an argument so they didnt talk about the bodyguards anymore.

"Are you feeling okay now? May masakit pa ba sayo?" Dad asked.

"Nothing, I just want to rest for a couple of days more" 

"Okay you rest well, I'll take care of everything. I'll be out now Im having a meeting with the board members with what happen to you weeks ago"

"I'm sorry about that dad"

"It's okay son, ang importante ay ligtas ka at walang nangyaring masama sayo."

"Thanks dad" i told dad and hug him.

 "Aww, ang mag ama ko. Here let me join you" I just laugh as mom hugged us. Its a warm feeling that I dont want to forget.

"Sige na anak, lalabas na kami, magpagaling ka nalang ihahatid ko mamaya ang snacks at tanghalian mo"

"Thanks mom" I said and sweetly smile to my parents as they leave my room.

Napabuntong hininga ako nang ako nalang mag isa ang nasa loob ng kwarto ko.

Then I stood and sit on my study table. Grab a pencil and a clear bondpaper and started to draw her. Yes, the woman with the amber eyes.

Then after an hour and a half, there it is. The half covered face of a woman with the amber eyes.

I stare at her eyebrows then I closed my eyes and try to remember again how long her lashes are and how cute her eyes was. Her eyebrows with normal thickness. Hindi masyadong makapal at hindi din masyadong manipis. 

When I opened my eyes I saw her mask. Its really cool and all but I started to hate it with the thought that its the reason why I didnt get the chance to see her face.

Napabalik ako sa ulirat ng marinig kong may kumakatok sa pinto ko. 

"Anak, I made you a snack, can I come in?" Its mom. Dad and her always respect my privacy that is why they always knock before entering someone else room. Yun ang trait na namana ko sa kanila. 

"Sure mom"

Inilapag ni mommy ang dala dala niyang tray na may lamang banana smothie and chicken sandwich. 

"Thanks mom!"

"Youre welcome baby" mom said.

"Whats that?" Mom ask when she noticed that I keep glancing with the bondpaper where I draw her.

"Its her" I simply anxwer mom.

"Who's her-- oh, the woman that help you when you get kidn*pped?"

"Yeah, thats her"

"She looks like a badass, but her eyes is emotionless"

I smiled. Napansin din ni mommy ang napapansin ko.

"She is, she has the nicest amber eyes that I have meet"

"You have a plan?"

"I want to see her again mom, I want to tell her how thankful I am for saving me" I sadly said 

"But, I dont even remeber her. I dont know why, I have a feeling that I see her face fully but I just cant remember. Everything is blurry"

"Hmm, its okay, everything's gonna be fine,"

"Thanks mom.... for everything." I sweetly smiled to her.

"Dont mention it, all for my handsome baby" I already get used to mom calling me baby even at the age of 27.

"Eat your snacks, I'll be back for your lunch"

When mom exited my room I also look back to my drawing then grab a new clean bondpaper and started to imagine and draw her tattoo. The only strongest clue that I hold.

Its the strongest clue that I have. Dahil may malaking posibilidad na personalized design ang tatto na yun sa side hips niya.

With that thought I get my phone and call my friend, Van Pelt, he is a friend who has a tattoo shop that was scattered all around the world.

"I'll send you a picture of a tattoo, will you tell me if its somehow familiar?"

"Good day to you too dickhead!" Van told me with sarcasm.

"Well, I'll be waiting for the email" I smiled with what he said and then he ended up the call.

After that I immediately open my email account and take the picture of the drawing then send it to Van.

After a couple of minutes my phone rang. When I saw that is Van who's calling, I immediately answered the phone.

"This tattoo is kinda cool and rare, where did you see this?"

"You remember that I was kidn*pped last week? The woman that I told you who helped me. I saw that tattoo on her side hips, so, does it look familiar to you?"

"Well, its familiar to me, I think its personalized. Have you seen the Crescent Entertainment Agency logo? Its logo is somehow close to this. The crescent and the clouds, ang pinagkaiba lang ay yung tattoo na sinend mo ay may mata na lumuluha, and whats this cursive word above the crescent moon? Is it a word?"

"Yeah, youre right! About the word I think it is. I just didnt clearly see it, so, with your observation is it possible that this woman is somehow connected to the Entertainment Agency?"

"Well, I think she is" he sigh.

"You're looking for her? The woman?"

"Its out of your business, bye dude!"

Napatingala ako nang natapos ang tawag.

Who is she really?

Crescent Entertainment Huh? Is she an artist? A staff? A director? A singer? A dancer? Or maybe one of the boss. She must value that agency too much for her to put it as an ink on her skin. But why is she there? Anong ginagawa niya doon? To save the naked guy and me? f**k! Even the naked guy is not there when the police arrived. Its just me that they saw a meter or five away from the abandoned building na sumabog.

While I was seriously thinking about that woman my phone rang. Its a message from Van, and it says.

"0987-------, its a number of a private investigator, he might help"

Nag isip ako, should I hire an investigator?

Yes! I want to see her again.

Dahil dun ay agad kong tinawagan ang number na ibinigay ni Van.

After three rings the owner of the phone picked up.

But no one from me or from the one I called makes a noise, until I decided to speak.

"Hello?"

"Who are you?"

"This is Clever Wayys and you are?"

"Clever wayys?"

"Van Pelt gave me your number saying that you could help me find someone"

"Oh, its the dickhead that he's talking about"

"f**k him! Im not a dickhead, argh! He's an asshole!"

"Chill, by the way I am Jayson Rod White, you can call me Rod for short, Im Pelt's cousin. Im sure he already told you that I am a private investigator. I have credentials if you wanna see it"

"I'll hire you"

"That fast?"

"I trust Pelt he may be an asshole but he is to be trusted just dont tell him that I sa8d that to you, baka lumaki na naman ang ulo niya."

"Oh, ok. When are we gonna meet?"

"Are you free tomorrow? I want this fast"

"Yeah, sure where and what time?"

"Wise Shipping line, last floor, in my office. 9:00 in the morning"

"Be there tomorrow"

"Ok, bye"

As I finished the talk with The investigator, I look up at the ceiling. I really wanted to see her again. I wanna thank her for saving my ass back there.

napabalik ako sa ulirat nang muli kong marinig ang katok sa pinto ko.

"Come in"

"Hey mom, what time is it?"

"Its already 11:55 a.m. you need to eat your lunch now, you didnt even eat your snacks"

Napatingin ako sa tray na nasa tabi ng lapis ko. Nakalimutan ko nang kumain dahil sa kakadrawing.

"I'm sorry mom, I forget"

"Hmm, its okay but you must eat your lunch, hindi ako aalis hanggat hindi mo nauubos ang pagkain sa plato mo" mom said and put the tray on my table. Then her eyes stopped to the bondpaper on my table. Theres a hint of recognition in her eyes.

"Do you know that tattoo mom?" Thats when mom faced me,

"Its familiar to me. Where did you get that?"

"How is it familiar to you mom? Have you seen it before? Its the tattoo of the woman who saved me from being kidn*pped"

"I dont know where I saw it, but Im sure I've seen it before. Im just not sure, there is something different" I sighed with what mom said. Maybe she's pertaining to the logo of Crescent Entertainment.

"I think its the Crescent Entertainment that you're talking about mom, may pagkakaiba sila kasi walang mata yung sa crescent at wala ding cursive word sa taas ng crescent moon"

"Oh yeah, I think thats it" mom said.

"Eat your lunch now, Dont worry you'll still see her. The world is small"

"Hmm, thanks for the food mom" I said and started to eat what my mom has cooked for me.

"Clev, anak? Sigurado ka na ba na hahanapin mo yung babae?" I looked at mom when I heard her  spoke.

"Yeah, why? Something wrong mom?" 

Mom shook her head.

"No, nothing's wrong. Its just that I think its dangerous for you--"

"Mom, I'll be fine okay? There's nothing to worry. I can handle myself" lumapit ako kay mommy and then I hold her hands.

"I really wanted to know her mom, I want to thank her. If not with her siguro hindi na ako humihinga ngayon"

My mom sigh. Its her way of admitting defeat.

"Okay, just be careful. I am also thankful to her. She saved my only son and I want to thank her for that. But please promise your mom. Hinding hindi mo ipapahamak ang sarili mo, kung nahihirapan ka na tigil na okay?"

"I promise mom" I told mom while looking straight to her eyes. Mom smiled at me and messed my hair.

"Finish your foods I'll be just downstairs"

"Okay mom"

I am a womanizer before, but what happened to mom make me realized something. She went into a coma for almost a year, she had a brain cancer before. Natakot ako na mawala si mommy kaya nangako ako na hindi na ako mabababae bast wag niya lang kunin ang mama ko and luckily my mom survived. And that is when I stop womanizing.

I smiled seeing my mom still alive and making me foods.

With the thought of food I continued eating my lunch.

"AGENT SPARROW, reporting!"

I said firmly as I enter the commander's office and saluted to him.

"Still not used to calling yourself captain?"

Yes, I am captain sparrow, I was just promoted two years ago kung kailan nagresign ang dating kapitan, but Im still not comfortable with captain sparrow.

"I just get used of Agent Sparrow than captain sparrow, why'd you called for me?" Napabuntong hininga ang commander at alam ko na hindi maganda ang sasabihin niya. Iminuwestra niya ang kanyang mga kamay upang maupo ako kaya yon ang ginawa ko.

"The Federick that died" binitin ni commander ang iba pa niyang sasabihin, but I knew it!

"I know for a fact that you know he's fake. So why did you still killed him?"

My jaw tightened with his questions.

"He hurt my family, no one can harm them, NO ONE" May diin kong sabi sa commander. He sigh.

"But the real Federick is the one who tell them to do it"

"They still hurt YOU!" I said without any trace of emotion on my voice.

He sigh. I know that he knows that I am as hard headed as him. Yes, my commander is also my best friend and my only family. Hiro Martinez. The most popular owner of the Crescent Entertainment which happens to be a private organization that helps the government to end the life of those hardheaded d***s that kept on hurting innocents.

"I told you Im fine. I can handle them just fine."

"Why did you even go with them? I know you can fight them!" I snapped. Its been a week yet he is not still telling me why he didnt fight with those bastards.

"Kung hindi ako sumama, malamang pinaglalamayan na ngayon si Ched"

He said at saka iniwas ang tingin sakin. Thats when I give him a teasing smile.

"What? Stop smiling like that its annoying"

"I told you go on and marry Ched I wont mind. Gusto mo ako pa ang mag ayos ng kasal nyo eh"

"I told you I wont get married not until you do first"

"Hiro, I'm fin--"

"Lets stop this. Let go back to work" he said. I know he's just tired of hearing it again and again.

I cleared my throat and asked.

"So, what is it?"

"Federick, he wants you down. But before you, he plans to take down the Wayys first"

"Let them be they're wise, I'm sure they can formulate a plan"

"Amélie! Its serious. And its not wise as in W I S E its W A Y Y S read as Wise"

"Oh"

"Yeah, oh" he said obviously mocking me.

"You want me to take care of it?"

"Yeah, Federick plans on k********g the Heir of the Wayys family because he wanted to have the Wise Shipping line. As we know Federick is an adopted son of Clever Wayys' grandparents Which is Felicity Wayys and Vhirtues Wayys. He was expecting that he'll be the one to inherit and manage the shipping line since he is the onky adopted son of Mr. And Mrs Wayys, but then Felicity Wayys was impregnated and that was Valleus Wayys, Clever's father. At dahil si Clever na ngayon ang namamahala sa shipping line, he is the target of Federick." Mahabang sabi ni Hiro bago naglapag siya ng picture.

Isang picture ng lalaking naka suit.

The picture was clearly stolen. 

Nakaside view siya habang tila binubotones ang kanyang suit.

It's Mr. H and H and he really look stunning with his white suit.

"He is Clever Wayys, 27 years old. I know you already meet him. He is the target of Federick's next evil plan. He plans on taking down The Wayys and then he'll take the Wise shipping line. Your work is to protect him. Do everything for this mans' welfare but please think of yourself also"

Hiro look at me with worry.

He's always like this when he gives me a mission.

"Dont worry. I'll be fine. I'll protect him"

"Good, now How are you?" Hiro asked.

"Im perfectly fine Hiro nothing to worry about. And you? Ikaw ang mas napuruhan"

"Im fine, thankfully dumating ka kaagad"

"By the way Clever is still looking for you"

"Well, siguro namesmerize siya sa kagandahan at kaseksihan ko" I said naughtily.

"Amélie! Its serious"

"Oh, Hahaha. Let him be. Kahit anong gawin niya di nya ako mahahanap, I was wearing a contact lens and a mouth mask that night, Im sure he didnt remember my face kasi yun ang una kong binura sa alaala niya"

"But he remembers your tattoo"

"Hindi niya makikita ulit ang tattoo ko unless I am wearing my Agent attire"

I said.

"So stop worrying will you?"

Hiro just nooded and then we started talking about some things na nauwi sa asaran.
