Chapter 5

Action

STEFEN

After cleaning with the bloody mess at the living room, I took a bath. I never expected to be in this house with strangers. Those people are childish to act. Mabuti na lang ay kasama ko ang kambal ko. With everything we've done together ay nagiging perfect in the end. We just don't know how to escape this place.

We first thought that this so called vacation would be so perfectly good for the both of us, we accept the offer because they tend to say that we'll fly over in each country then they lock us here. We own a millions, so we don't care on what they have to offer to us. But they bait us for something good that we couldn't forget.

It's been a day since we came to this place and I don't like it.

From Gyllia, Marco, Erense, Cobert, Vinea and the dead girl. I know there will be more people who would come here. We stayed in a mansion were there a limits of places where to go. The only thing that we could get in was our room and the living room.

I go the living room and saw Marco and Gyllia talking something I don't know. And there's my twin, taking care of her gun.

Steph was the good one to the both of us. Siya 'yong may pakealam sa feelings ng ibang tao but opposite on me, I was the cold hearted one at kahit ano ay gagawin ko. And my conscience will never bother me.

"Stefen!" tawag ni Steph. "Come here!"

Lumapit naman ako sa kanya and sat beside her.

"What is it, my twin?" I smirked.

"You ever notice Erense's action?" tanong nito sa akin.

Napataas naman ang kilay ko sa sinabi niya, "how would you know? May ginawa ba siya sayo?"

Umiling naman ito, mukhang hindi pa siya sigurado sa pag-iling niya. "Oh, if there's something bugging you there Steph, tell me then we could confront to her." sabi ko naman sa kanya.

"We don't need, just a shoot will do." ngisi pa niya.

Nagtawanan naman kaming dalawa. We do love shooting guns. Minsan ginagawa namin 'yon sa Mansion namin. But all things get fixed after what happened and I missed doing that thing. Hindi namin magawa ni Steph 'yon dito. If we could shoot them alive, ginawa na namin.

"Guys..." napatingin naman kami sa nagsalita. It's Erense. "Anong gusto niyo? I'll cook some snacks for us." Ngiti pa nito.

Napatingin naman sila Gyllia at Marco sa amin.

"Rice crackers." Suhestyon naman ni Marco.

"Ikaw, Gyllia?" tanong ni Erense.

"Hmm, ano ba masarap?"

Napairap naman kami ni Steph sa sinabi ni Gyllia.

"Cousins?" Erense look at us with her creepy smile.

"Anything will do." sagot naman ni Steph.

"Yes, anything..." sagot ko. "Just don't forget to wash your hands, ayokong malasan ang kadumihan ng pagkatao mo."

"Noted, Twins." Aniya.

Napakunot noo na lang din naman ako sa sinabi niya. Steph is right, may kakaiba nga sa aksyon ni Erense and we should know kung bakit siya gano'n kumilos. Few minutes, tinawag kami ni Erense from the kitchen.

"Twins, tawag kayo ni Erense." Ulit pa ni Gyllia.

"We heard, Gyllia. Hindi mo na naman kailangang ulitin." Iritado niyang sagot kay Gyllia.

Sabay naman kaming dalawa ni Steph na tumungo sa kusina. Nadatnan naming may hinahanda si Erense sa lamesa. Lumapit naman kaming dalawa para tingnan 'yong ginagawa niya. Nagkatinginan kaming dalawa ni Steph ng makita namin iyon.

Twinnie will die – it was written with a French fry and ketchups all over.

When we look up at her, she's holding a sharp knife.

"Shoot, my gun's at the living room." Steph said.

"Put that dagger down Erense." Utos ko naman sa kanya.

"Why would I?" ngiti pa nito. "This is the only way I can pay off the things you did to me."

"You mean your revenge?"

"Absolutely, my dear cousin." Ngisi pa ni Erense. "Don't try to make a move or call them, you know where you ended up."

Nagulat ako ng hinatak ni Erense si Steph at tinutok nito ang kutsilyo sa leeg nito.

"What are you doing Erense? Wala ka na sa matinong pag-iisip!"

"Ako lang ba?" tawa pa nito. "Mas una kayo nawalan ng katinuan, kaya mauuna rin kayong mawawala." Aniya. "Walk that way." Aniya at tinuro ang palabas ng kusina. "Don't try to make a sound." Babala pa nito.

Narating namin ang isang pinto malapit sa hagdanan. This wooden door seems to be private at hindi pwedeng pasukin but Erense push us to do open the fucking door. As we came to the door, isang hallway ang bumungad sa amin. Nakakagulat lang dahil hindi namin inakala na ganito ang makikita namin.

"Saan mo ba kami dadalhin Erense?" ani Steph.

"You'll see."

"Kung anong binabalak mo Erense, you should stop."

Pero tinawanan lang ako ni Erense, "go to the door!" sigaw nito.

Diniretsyo ko ang paglalakad hanggat sa marating ang tinuro niyang pintuan sa gitna ng hallway. There's a doors between the walls. Two doors each side, so merong limang pintuan sa loob ng hallway na ito.

"Open!" sigaw ni Erense.

I want to punch her pero hindi ko magawa dahil hawak niya ang kambal ko. Ginawa ko naman ang gusto niya. Pagpasok namin sa kwarto ay napahinto na lamang kami sa nasaksihan namin. There's a chair in the center of the room. Tinulak ni Erense si Steph, niyakap ko naman ang kambal ko saka sinarado ni Erense ang pinto ng kwarto.

"Umupo ka doon, Stefen." Ani Erense.

Umiling naman ako, "sinong uto uto ang susunod sayo?"

She smirked, "this is the last time I'll say it Stefen, umupo ka doon."

Natawa naman ako at saka sinugod siya. I push her, so that he fell on the ground. I kick her ass. She can't stand up as I stomp her hand. She shouted but I think the room was soundproof so no one will hear us.

"Stefen, look out!"

I failed to see her next move, she stabbed my feet. Mabilis akong namilipit sa sakit. Steph will come after to help me but Erense stabbed me once again. I felt the blood flows on my skin. I shouldn't die on her hands... I shouldn't.
