#MultiverseInterludeChapter05

"You were gone for fucking five years, Nero! Tapos ngayon ka pa talaga magpapakita sa 'kin na maganda ang simula ng araw ko ngayon?" Sunod-sunod kong sigaw sa kanya at walang awang pinagtapunan ng kung anong gamit dahil sa inis.

Eh akalain mo naman, ang kakambal mong nawala ng limang taon na wala man lang paramdam. And one more thing, hindi rin nagawnag hanapin ng pamilya naming ang whereabout niya kasi ang galling niyang mag tago.

"Oo. Magpapakita talaga ako sa 'yo ngayon dahil kailangan kita," I rolled my eyes and threw another pillow on him, but he managed to catch and smirk in between his laugh.

Kainis naman punyetang kapatid na ito.

"Kung kailangan mo ng pera, makakaalis ka na sa harapan ko dahil ibibigay ko sa 'yo yung pera, agad-agad." Matigas kong sabi at binuksan ang phone ko para i-check ang laman ng bank account ko an tansiyahin ang perang kaya kong ibigay sa kanya.

"I actually don't need your money little sis," nagtaas ang kilay ko sa kanya at ramdam ko ang pagtaas ng dugo ko sa kanya. "Then what the hell do you want from so you can leave me the fuck alone?"

"Simple. You just have to have to follow me for what I want you to do and you're free," he casually said while smiling as he sipped on his drink.

"Ano naman?"

"You know you're still a member of VS right?" Natulala ako saglit sa kanyang sinabi at biglang naalalang isa pala akong meymbro 'dun.

Vaisseaux Sanguinswas composed with 9 families. Villegas, Yapchengco, de Perio, Tuazon, Plaza, Martinez, Ivanov, Moretti, and the Naverda's.

It's an on and gangs wherein you can benefit from a lot of things especially when you're in trouble. The inactive members will be summoned when someone needs help or is in trouble, sometimes we cant be summoned when they know they can do it without a lot of people.

You can only leave the gang when you die. That's why there's an option to be an on and off member, and if there's a huge mission and trouble; you must come or you'll die and kick out all of your family members.

And of course, my family wants to be on top so they always remind me or even kidnap me at some time just so I can attend the meeting or join the mission.

"I've got someone pregnant and I don't know where she went," nanlaki nag mga mata ko sa sinabi niya. "What the fuck brother?! Nababaliw ka na ba?"

"Oo, sa kanya." Ngumisi siya.

Naparolyo naman ako sa aking mata.

"Kilala mo ba siya? May relasyon ba kayo?" Tanong ko dahil mas naging concern na ako sa babaeng nabuntis niya at ang dinadala niyang pamangkin ko.

"How could I not know her when in the first place you were her best friend?" Kumunot ang kilay at bahagyang umawang ang labi ko sa sinabi niya.

"Sino? Si Kayla ba?" Nagugulohang tanong ko sa kanya.

"Gago," mura niya at naparolyo sa kanyang mata. "It's Kaila little sis," umawang ang labi ko at napatakip sa aking bibig sa sinabi niya.

"Pano kayo nagka-relasyon?"

"One night stand, you know." Umiling ako at nagtanong ulit. "And how the hell did you know that she was pregnant?"

"VS,"

"Okay, so ano nga ang kailangan kong gawin para sa kapakanan mo?"

"Find her,"

"Nababaliw ka na talaga!" I yelled and threw him the flower vase. "I know, I know. I just found out that dad is planning to drag you to his drug business,"

And that's when I realized why.

"That's right Aly. Tama ang naisip mong prinoprotektahan kita sa mula sa kanya, kaya mamili ka sa dalawa. It's either you look for my girlfriend or you become a drug dealer?" I sighed and slightly shocked my head.

Napasapo ako sa buong mukha ko at dumaing ng malakas, and then throwing another glassy things on him. Hindi naman ako mag aalala sa kanya dahil palagi niya naming naiiwasan iyon at sinasalo pa 'nga.

"Deal, seal-" natigilan ako sa pagsasalita ng bumukas ang pintuan sa itaas at nakita siyang bumaba sa galing sa itaas.

Shit!

Nandito 'nga pala siya! Paano kung ano-ano naman ang isipin ng gago at baliw kong kapatid na narito siya?

Bumuntong hininga ako tinignan ang kapatid na malapad na nakangisi sa 'kin at nag salita.

"So you two are together now?" May halong sungog sa kanyang boses na kinaiinisan ko na naman. "I don't know him! Hindi ko siya kilala!"

"And what the hell he is doing in here?"

"Ano kasi—"

"Morning Ms. And Mr. de Perio," he's now standing in front of us, smiling and my brother offered his hand for a shake.

"Nice meeting you in person, Mr. Martinez." Twirled and sealed, as if they're having a business affair.

"You too Mr. de Perio," he replied and even talked for a while until he left the house.

"I'll just send it to your email of where she is, pero kailangan mo pa rin gamitin ang utak mo. And if ever be an assassin again."

"I can't do that. I'm a writer now, and not an assassin. I've quit years ago." Diin ko habang sinaluran ang baso ng tubig.

"Okay, but use your skills. Hindi ko naman sinasabing ibalik ang lahat ng kaya mong gawin, I'm just saying if ever. Hindi naman pweding hindi ka gagamit ng mga skills mo sa mission na 'to, we don't know how they dangerous she is now since isa siyang Plaza." I sighed and nodded.

Napapagod na akong sagutin ang mga pinagsasabi niya.

"You're still writing, right? Why not you write a letter for me to give her?" Putangina.

Ang kapal naman ng mukha.

"Eh diba nagsusulat ka rin dati? Bakit hindi mo gagawin ngayon para sa kanya?" Natahimik siya at ngumiti, which gives me freak.

"It's part of the mission," then he cleared his throat and placed a piece of gold paper on the counter table.

"What's this?"

"An invitation for an on and off members."

"Invitation para saan? Tangina, bat andami mong ipapagawa sa 'kin?" Inip na tanong ko dahil sumusobra na siya kaka-utos.

"It's not an ordinary invitation like what you expect to attend a party, it's an invitation to access everything." He casually said and walked closed to me. "I'm leaving and please be safe," he said and hugged me.

"Aly, may bago na naman." Kayla broke the silence between us while we're having our dinner.

Hindi ko pa rin alam paano siya kakausapin tungkol sa kapatid niyang nabuntis ng kakambal ko. It's either she knows or not, but I have to keep quiet na lang kasi member rin siya ng VS. Hindi kami pweding magsabi sa kapamilya ng mission na 'min.

"What is it?" Walang ganang tanong ko dahil sa ngayon ay medyo nawalay ako sa mga issues sa buhay ko dahil 'nga sa kambal ni Kayla.

Pati problema ng ibang tao prinoproblema ko rin.

And I've also realized that the problems of the others will make me forget about what's problems.

"About you obviously but with someone," huminto ako sa pagkain at tinignan siya. 

"What?"

"Who?" Pag-ulit ko.

"Arthur Martinez," kaswal na sagot niya at sumubo ulit sa pagkain.

"Ano naman ang mayroon sa lalakeng iyan?" Medyo naiinis kong boses.

"It should be, 'ano bang mayroon sa 'ming dalawa?" Bumuntong hininga akong sumubo bago nagsalita.

"Honestly, I've been in a rumor with lots of people. Hindi na bago sa 'kin 'to, why bother telling me about it?" She sighed and faced me seriously.

"Bago ito sa 'yo Aly. Bagong-bago dahil may ebidensya silang nakuha, and I can't say it's fake images with some random people who looks like you because It was really you," she said and opened the iPad.

"Here, look at these." Kumunot ang noo ko at tinanggap mula sa kanyang kamay ang iPad.

Umawang ang labi ko sa nakita at napamura.

"What the fuck? Ako nga!" Hindi makapniwalang sabi ko at nag scroll down sa buong artikulo.

mzknmoretti: galing naman humalik ng kaibigan ko. Pang international!

nekosjy: so they must be really dating? And how could he write an article about her stealing someone's work? Nababaliw ba siya?

avrlbnz: kaya siguro naghalikan sila ng ganyan katindi dahil nagkasuyuan sila sa isyu ng jowa niya. Gusto ko suyuin in that way, but I remembered that I don't have a boyfriend.

Halos hindi na ako humihinga sa nabasa ko sa article. Masyadong detailed yung pagka-sulat roon. Deniscribe pa talaga kung paano kami naghalikan.

Napasapo na alng ako sa aking mukha at nagpatuloy sa pagkain.

The day that I thought would be peaceful has finally been ruined.
