Kabanata 32
EVERYONE was in total awe when they arrived at Tejano's house. Si Frodo na hirap pang humakbang, namimilog ang mga mata habang nakaawang ang bibig.
"Bozz Tejano your houze iz more than beautiful and very very crazy!"
Umismid si Tejano. Sanay na siya sa ganoong reaksyon dahil sa structure ng kanyang bahay. He rarely goes home for the past year because of the memories it bring at hindi rin niya nami-maintain ngunit sa labas pa lamang ng bahay, kita na ang detalye.
It is a three-storey house with an upside-down viking ship for the roof, and bullet-proof glass walls. Malawak ang bakuran at ang damo, hindi man halata, peke.
Kabanata 33 NAGPUYOS ang dibdib ni Gresso sa galit, takot at matinding pangamba para kay Frodo matapos sabihin ni Tejano ang natitirang paraang naiisip ni Frodo upang hindi matuloy ang launching ng missiles. "He told me to get something he left on my Pharaoh but the moment I stepped out of the control room, he fucking shut the door and locked it from the inside! Walang silbi ang baril ko, putangina hindi mabuksan ang pinto mula sa labas!" Nanlamig ang katawan ni Gresso.Fuck! Fuck! God damn it, Frodo! What the fuck! Buhat ang kanyang anak, tumakbo siya palabas kasama ang mga kaibigan patungo sa control room. Dumadagundong sa kaba ang puso ni Gresso at pakiramdam niya, sasabog ang dibdib niya sa halo-halong emosyong s
Kabanata 34 TAHIMIK na pinanood ni Gresso kung papaanong pinarangalan ng buong MI6 ang isa sa pinakamagiting na taong nakilala niya. Everyone who knew Frodo in the organization or personally, wept when they found out the heroic act he did for thousands of people. Even the whole world cried and praised him, and the French government even honored his death and called him the young hero of the new generation. He was celebrated as the brave agent, but Gresso praised him more for his beautiful heart. Napakaraming alaalang iniwan ni Gresso sa kanyang puso, at hinding-hindi niya makalilimutan kailanman ni isa sa mga iyon. "Frodo the brave, the David who saved thousands. But I remember more the Frenchie who pulled me up when I was so down." He laughed softly as he stared at the newly built
Epilogue A CALMING WIND. She's like the wind that calmed his raging waves, the gentle breeze who brought peace in his wrecked soul and tamed his wild heart. Ilang taon na, pero hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin makapaniwala si Gresso na kanya na ang babaeng abalang mag-advice sa maraming pasyenteng dumalo sa kanilang medical mission. Ah, that magnetic eyes that seems to smile when she laughs, who wouldn't love to stare at it forever? Those eyes captured him since the very beginning, and he regret not even a second in his life that he stared at it and took the risk of getting drowned in the emotions only her was able to make him feel.
Prologue THE FIRST TIME she met him, she felt like she's being swallowed by a tidal wave. A dangerous tidal wave she should have avoided from the very first second their eyes met, but like a mad sailor in a raging sea, she threw away her fears and let herself drown with all the emotions he could make her feel. Pinagmasdan niya ang pares ng mga mata nito, at nang mapansin ang isang bagay, hindi napigilan ni Gie ang bahagyang ikunot ang kanyang noo. His pair of eyes seems to be calling for help. His pools spoke the words she knew his lips would never tell. "Love freely now, wild heart..." Even his voice has no trace of softness—deep, a little rough, like it was owned by some
Kabanata 1 "Good girls often get attracted to bad boys." Natulala si Gie sa screen ng kanyang laptop nang marinig ang sinabi ng bida sa pelikulang pinanonood niya. She can't believe that the first person that will come inside her head after hearing it would be the dangerous older brother of her Kuya Trojan. Simula noong araw na lumaya ang asawa ng ate Bella niya, hindi na talaga niya nakalimutan si Gresso. Nag-camping na ito nang tuluyan sa kanyang isipan dahilan para mapatanong siya sa kanyang sarili kung buo pa ba siya nang umalis sila sa supermax. Naiwan ba ang lahat ng pinag-aralan niya roon kaya parang napaka-irasyonal na niyang mag-isip? Really? She's letting that psychopath stay in her system? Hindi niya yata matanggap.
Kabanata 2 NAPABALING si Gie sa pinto ng kanyang silid nang marinig ang ilang katok. Nang makita ang kuya Trojan niya ay kaagad siyang tumayo saka ito nginitian. "Kuya, kailan ka umuwi?" "I just got home an hour ago, Gie. We got withdrawn from the last mission since we got compromised." Ngumiti ito sa kanya saka mahinang tinapik ang kanyang balikat. "Sorry, I didn't make it on your oath-taking. I'm really happy for you, thou." "Thank you, kuya. So how long are you gonna stay this time?" "I'll have a new assignment six months in six months and uhm, actually about that, kaya kita pinuntahan dahil may importante akong gustong sabihin." Napakunot siya ng noo nang mahimigan ang pagka
Kabanata 3 "THAT DOCTOR IS MINE." Nalaglag ang panga ni Gie nang pagkatapos ang nakakawindang na deklarasyon ni Gresso, bumulagta ito sa kanyang harap at nangisay matapos kuryentehin ng mga gwardya. Nangingisay itong nakatingin sa kanya, tila gustong magpasaklolo ngunit hindi siya makagalaw sa kinatatayuan dala ng gulat. Nang tigilan ang pagkuryente ay habol-habol nito ang hiningang tumihaya. Umigting ang panga nito at masamang tinitigan ang mga gwardyang nanguryente sa kanya. "You motherfuckers just ruined a perfect moment." Nagngingitngit ang mga ngiping asik. He reached for his baseball bat. "I'm gonna send you back to your daddy's balls you useless sperms—" Muli itong nangis
Kabanata 4 "WIPED OUT." Ysiah flicked his pen on the table. Bumuga ito ng hangin at hinilamos ang palad sa mukha bago sila seryosong tinignan isa-isa ng mga kasamang doktor. "As expected, all records are wiped out. Those things we have in the system are all fake. The MI6 was right. We're really back to square one and we gotta be careful. There are people here who must be guarding those inmates who have the chips." Kumunot ang noo ni Gie. "I don't get it. Isn't the Warden aware about the records?" "Although he has the rights to know and touch the records himself, the MI6 has been informed that the Warden was given the false ones. The MI6 already reviewed the records they retrieved when they received the request for this mission but
