50 The Presence of Lightness

ELLE

The moment I close my eyes, I see nothing but darkness. The absence of lightness.

I heard growls and sound of gunshot. I waited to feel the pain cause I know it'll hit and hurt me anytime soon.

It made me come to realization, that if the bullet will hit at any of the crucial parts of my body, it'll be the end.

But then, confusingly, I open my eyes because I didn't feel any hurt from my body.

"SH.T!" I heard Ally's cursed. I saw her hand filled with blood and trembling as the gun fell on the ground.

Suddenly, a group of men came out of nowhere and exchanged shots with each other.

I hid from the table to prevent myself from the gunshots. "YOU SL*T! HINDI PA TAYO TAPOS!" Sigaw niya saakin. Without a word, lumapit siya saakin.

"Talagang hindi pa tayo tapos dahil hindi pa kita napapabalik sa impyerno!" Sigaw ko sa kanya.

"Don't worry. Isasama din kita! Walang hiya ka!" She pulled my hair and so I did. Nagsabunutan kami, walang planong bitawan ang buhok ng isa't-isa.

"Sisiguraduhin kong makakalbo kita para hindi na mapunta sayo si Kyle!" Galit na sabi niya saakin. I pulled her hair even stronger. The pain in her palm didn't hinder her to hurt me.

"Gaga ka ba?! Kahit anong gawin mo saakin, kahit kalbuhin mo pa ako, mahal ako ni Kyle. Mahal na mahal ako ni Kyle. Didn't you get that?!" Matapang kong sabi sa kanya at pinagsampal-sampal siya.

"You wh*re! Ang yabang mo alam mo yun?!" Hinawakan niya yung kamay ko para pigilan yung pananampal ko sa kanya. "Listen, you filthy leech! Hindi ko alam kung anong nakita ni Kyle sayo at nahuhumaling siya! And what did you say?! Kyle really love you?! Are you kidding?!" She laughed.

"Mukha ba akong nagbibiro?" Sarcastic kong tanong sa kanya. "Mukhang ulyanin ka na, Elle. I repeat, kung mahal ka talaga ni Kyle, bakit pumatol siya saakin? You're married right? But how come, he chose to put his d*ck in between of my thighs?! What made him decide to make love with me instead of you?!" Her words. It really hurts me..

"Do youknow how crazy he was when his d*ck touches my core, Elle? Do you even know how madly and badly he feels everytime he was about to c*m and screams for my name?! Precisely, you didn't know it. Your husband really is a game player. Sadly, he won. WE won. You lose, loser." She said as she started to walk away from me.

"Yes, you're right." Napahinto siya. "I know sl*t --" I cut her off from speaking.

"You're right because Kyle used to say that he loves me, but he's not. Pumatol siya sayo. Sa maruming kagaya mo. Aren't you a gold digger who used to date old men way back then? What made you think that Kyle also loved you?! Screaming for your name? Do you want to know how much screams he made when we're having a wild s*x? You won? Don't throw a joke cause it's not buying me. Try to make a lie that is believable or at least, that will make me threatened. I pity you. You praise Kyle so much, do you? Mind you, what ever happens, ano pa man ang gawin mo, Kyle will never love someone who is dirty as a shit like you." Ngumiti ako habang lumalakad palapit sa kanya.

Tuluyan na akong nakalagpas sa kanya when I grinned and face her. This crazy bitch.

"And also honey, the next time you'll try to kill me, yung tipong matatakot ako ah? This is so cheap. I've seen this several times on TV! You are so cheap talaga!" Nakangiting sabi ko sa kanya. Tinitigan niya lamang ako ng masama. Sus.

"Oh? Hanggang tingin na lang ba ang kaya mo ngayon? Nasaan na yung tapang mo kanina? May pahila-hila ka pa ng buhok, eh weak ka naman pala. Bakit natameme ka? Mukha kang batang naagawan ng laruan sa itsura mo ngayon!" Pang-aasar ko sa kanya.

"So paano? Ready ka na ba sa paandar ko sayo, Ally? Hindi naman pwedeng ikaw lang ang may paandar for me diba? Dapat ako rin! So ano, get ready ah? I'm very sure na you'll like it! Good bye, wretched!" Sabi ko at tuluyan nang umalis.

Iniwan ko na siya doon at pumasok na sa kotse.

"Mission accomplished." I heard Jom's voice. "Yes. Sakto lang yung pagdating niyo. Walanghiya kayo baka pinaglalamayan niyo na ako ngayon pag nahuli kayo ng dating!" Pagbibiro ko sa kanya.

"So what's your next move?" Napangisi ako sa tanong niya.

"Ally failed to surprise me. So I'll teach her how to surprise someone na hindi mag-mumukhang cheap sl*t." Sabi ko.

"Call the boys. It's party time." I grinned.
