Inabangan ko si Bryle sa kaniyang HQ. He was smiling to see me at his door. Err. He really looks like a bulldog.
Para ba siyang bata sa alaska na gatas. Nakakainis ang mukha niya.
I pushed him to thr railing then held his collar. I can see his face, really broken bad.
"What? Can you chill?" he said then let my hand down. Nakatingin sa'kin yung mga ipis niya.
"What brings you here, Honey?" parang tinusok ang eardrums ko nang sabihin niya yun.
May lason sa'kin bawat salitang sinasabi niya and the only antidote is to punch him hard in the face so tgat was what i did.
"Hey! That hurts!" he exclaimed. Hinawakan ako ng mga ipis niyang tauhan.
"Tangina mo! You Alaska kid! Or should i say MALASKA kid! Ang lakas din ng loob mong sapakin ng ganun kadami si JC! Mag-isa lang siya tapos sasapakin niyo nang ganun? What if he dies? What if ma coma siya?" galit kong sigaw sa kaniya.
"Chill wifey. Namatay ba siya? Hindi diba? Na coma ba siya?Β No also. So what are you fighting for? Na sinapak sapak ko siya? Hindi mo din ba nakikita tong mga pasa ko? Ha? Sa kaniya ka lang ba naka-focus? In the first place siya naman 'tong nauna! I just got my vindeta! Masama bang makaganti on our field, Danskie my wife?" Bryle explained getting his face near me.
Inuntog ko ang noo ko sa kaniya. Napaatras tuloy siya.
Napahigpit lalo ang hawak ng mga ipis niya sa'kin.
"Ano bang kinagagalit mo sa kaniya? Dahil ba na coma ka sa ginawa niya sa'yo? Well, you bulldog malaska kid is brainless. Ikaw may kasalanan nun kaya dapat lang sayo na ma-coma. Dapat nga namatay ka na eh. Kaso shit ka kaya mahirap ka patayin. Ni hawakan ka nga mahirap na. Bitawan niyo nga ako!" pagpupumiglas ko. But they were too strong. Anim vs. Me
"Why Danskie? Ganun kanaba kamuhi sa'kin? Lahat naman ginawa ko para mapansin mo. Naging masama na'ko para lang pantayan ka. Isn't that enough? All my life... all my life i was aiming you. Tapos gusto mo pala akong mamatay? Hahahaha. Kung yun ikasasaya mo edi sana patay na'ko" Bryle said in his normal voice.
So he reall does like me. Sabi pa nga niya naging masamang tao pa siya para sa'kin. Psh. Is it my fault?
"You know what, Bryle? Kailanman i'll never love a man like you. Tatandaan mo yan. Mahina ka. You're weak kaya kelanman you can't go my place. Naging masama ka dahil sa'kin? So you put the blame on me!" sigaw ko sa kaniya.
Sinenyas niya na bitawan ako ng mga naglalakihang ipis niya. Binitawan nga nila ako.
"So you'll never love me cause i'm weak. Hahaha. I'll never gonna be at your place. Cause i'm weak" he softly said. I saw a tear at his left eye. He looked at the ground.
"Yes. You're weak. Ngayon, i did not come here to talk about that shit. I'm here to warn you na kapag may ginawa ka pa ulit na masama kay JC, hello hell ka na" i last said before walking away.
"Wait. Before you leave, can you tell me... not to cry" Bryle's voice is breaking. I know he'll cry in a few seconds.
"Your tears, are sign that you're weak. Masama akong tao Bryle. Kaya umiyak ka pa ng umiyak hanggang lumuwa yang mga mata mo" i shouted at him then guffawed.
He slowly nod his head then cried and cried softly.
I'm never guilty of this.

SATURDAY. 4 AM when i arrived at the house of my kinsfolk, Aunt Elizabeth and Uncle Jamesis.
Since Dad died, it became a routine for me to visit them first before going to my bastion.
"John Carlo, my beloved nephew, you're here" my aunt Eliz said.
Nagbesohan kami nang makalapit siya sa'kin. I wonder why she wore gown eh wala namang occasion today.
"John Carlo. Welcome back" uncle Jamesis said my name in Italian Accent. I can see his grey tuxedo formal attire paired with his hat and walrus mustache.
May occasion ba talaga ngayon?
"You two, why do you dress like that?" i asked then they had no response.
At their back, there are twin brothers came out their 12 feet door. Nagulat ako nang hilain nila ako papasok ng kanilang bahay.
My body froze when i saw who's sitting next to the chimney.
"I know you'll come here, love" a daring lovely voice said.
Oh how i miss her voice.
She stood up from sitting and sexily walked towards me.Β Tumingin siya kina Tita Eliz and Tito James that entered their grand living room. I gawped them shooting a questioning glare.
"May we leave the two of you? Mukhang marami kayong pag-uusapan. We'll just go at the square living room" Aunt Eliz said.
Tanging tunog lang ng kaniyang takong ang naririnig as she walk up the stairs. Also the twins went upstairs.
This is not a good idea.
I looked at her as she place both of her hands on my nape, wanting me to get lost inside her eyes.
"It's been a year since the last i held you close" she whispered
Next thing, she looked at my daring lips,wanting to kiss them.
Alam ko na ang susunod na mangyayari kung kaya't dahan dahan kong binaba ang kaniyang kamay mula sa walang libag kong batok.
Nagtaka siya sa inasta ko.
"Naparito ako para bisitahin sina Tita Elizabeth at Tito Jamesis. Hindi para makipaglandian sa'yo" i gripped her hand.
If only she knew, tinitimpi ko ang galit sa puso ko. Whenever i see her, bumubugso ang sakit ng nakaraan. This feeling βi really want to kill her.
Gusto ko siyang komprontahin. If only i can, iyon na nga. Hindi ko kaya. I hate to admit it, she always has a space deep in my heart.
Everytime i ferl this, halo-halong emosyon ang nararamdaman ko: pagmamahal, galit at pagkaawa sa sarili.
I pity myself, at the same time i hate me.
"Carlo, love, i know you still love me. You know that your eyes can't lie to me" she pronounced.
Yeah, tama nga siya. At naiinis ako dahil tama yun.
"Lowie, please stop breaking my heart. I've been broken, i've been ruined. Please, don't go breaking my heart, the second time. Lubayan mo na'ko" i said then bowed my head.
Tinalikuran ko siya. I started to walk away. She called me.
"Love"
Hindi ko na siya nilingon. I was there always everytime she says that word. But now's different.
I never knew that i still love her as ever. Thankful that i can manage this shit feeling.
"I already left that 'love' you're calling me when you walked out that door. Everything's changed between us when you left me. Remember? You hurt me. I don't want to be hurt again" hinarap ko siya't umismid.
"One thing more, my ears hurt when you call me love. Stop calling me that shit"
Wala na akong paki sa mararamdaman niya. She deserves to be hurt. Lahat ng nananakit sa'kin dapat ding masaktan. Nararapat na triple ang maramdaman nilang sakit.

Buti naman, hindi ko namataan si Lowie pagbaba ko ng hagdan.
Sayang.
I should've told her, "Don't ever show your face to me. Ever" βlike those ones on TV and drama.
As i get off the car, i saw my loyal fine platoons wearing their appropriate uniform. Para tuloy pare-parehas yung mga mukha nila para sa'kin.
After Dad died, i took over this bullshit rulling. Walang angal angal 'cause i had no other choice, since i'm an only child.
Akala ko dati, this will be fun. But this real shit happenening was the exact opposite of that "fun" word.
Bawat pagkakamali, may mamatay. Before victory, may mamamatay. Kung manalo, may mamamatay pa din. Always my men will decrease and decrease and decrease.
Dun ko nalaman kung bakit, other mafia boss build an empire. For one reason, men power.
In my case, i don't need to recruit kahit pa nababawasan buwan buwan ang mga tauhan kong tapat.
By the help of technology and brainful allies, i can reinforce multiple men with their DNA replicas.
Kinukuha ang bawat DNA ng mga tauhan ko at gumagawa ng clone nila. If not, gumagawa pa ako ng mga robot na kapaki-pakinabang for my army.
Kaya nga walang namamatay na kasapi sa Dela Cruz Private Army nang ako na ang nakaupong pinuno ng imperyo.
Hindi ako katulad ng mga mob boss out there na kailangan pang mandukot ng mga bata at magrecruit ng mga kabataan na hindi babata sa 5 years old.
Hindi ako katulad ng mga mob boss na gumagawa ng kung ano-anong katiwalian para lang mapalawak ang imperyo katulad ng mga MONTPELLIER.
Siyempre, at the end, many men will be surely killed.
Eh? That's not my style. I play my cards very safe, with my minions safe too.
Tsaka i have this rule number one eh. 'makikipagbakbakan lang ako sa mga bumanbangga sa'kin'
Kaya patutumbahin ko lahat ng nakakalat sa daraanan ko, as well as yung mga bumalakid at nagbigay sa'kin ng sakit. Especially Drayren Montpellier.
