LEO
"ANSH!"
"This is yourfault, Cervano! If you have surrendered way back then this neverhappened."
"F*ck you, X!"
Agad akong tumakbohindi para sugurin at patayin si X kundi upang tumalon mula sa taasnitong bangin at habulin at iligtas si Ansh.
Bago pa man akotuluyang makatalon ay narinig ko ang huling mga salita ni X.
"You will notsucceed, Cervano! You and Hernaez are going to die!"
As I fell in thewater, I kept on swimming and searching for Ansh.
Where are you, Ansh?
D*mn! I can't seeany signs of her being around.
Muli akong umahonupang habulin ang hininga ko.
"Ansh? Where areyou? P-please. . ."
No response.
D*mn!
I took a deep breathand dived under the water one more time.
Kailangan ko siyamahanap, kailangan ko siya mailigtas bago pa mahuli ang lahat.
I went deeper intothe waters until I saw something that is sinking in a tremendousspeed. Hindi malinaw ang image ng kung ano man lumulubog na 'yon, butI need to check and see for myself.
Mas binilisan ko paang aking paglangoy hanggang paunti-unti ay lumilinaw na ang kung anoman ang lumulubog na 'yon.
F*ck! It's a humanbody!
I quickly swamtowards the body and pulled it from where it was.
Alam ko na medyomabigat ang katawan but I need to do it, I need to save her dahilhindi ko mapapatawad ang sarili ko sa oras na mapahamak si Ansh ngdahil lang sa pagiging mafia ko.
"Agh! We need togo to the surface. . ." agad naman akong lumangoy papunta sa lupaat saka ko hiniga si Ansh.
I touched her pulseand thank goodness that she is still alive.
I started to pumpher chest and gave her mouth to mouth respiration so that I couldgive her enough air to breath.
It took us like for5-10 minutes bago siya nagkamalay at saka binuga ang mga tubig nakaniyang nainom.
"Ansh? Okay kalang ba?" She didn't response at nagpatuloy lang ang kaniyangpag-ubo kaya naman hinimas ko ang likod niya at saka tinapik-tapik.
"Ansh? Pleasetalk. Are you alright?" She looked at me and it was around 5seconds before she backed away and kicked my face.
"Aw! What was thatfor, Ansh?"
She didn't respondand stayed away from me.
"Put* ka! Anongginagawa mong demonyo ka dito?"
"Ansh, kumalma kaplease."
"Ano nga ginagawamo dito, Mafia?"
"I am Leo."
"You are a mafiaand I don't know if I could trust that Leo is your real name."
Napa-face palm nalang ako at saka ko sinubukang ikalma ang sarili ko.
"We don't havetime for this, Ansh. Mr. X is up there hunting for our lives. We haveto go!"
"Mr. X?. . . Idon't think so, Mafia."
"Anong I don'tthink so ka dyan? Mr. X is already chasing for our lives, Ansh."
"Chasing us? Bakanaman they are chasing you at nadamay lang ako?"
