Chapter 62- Her Game

" Are you sure about this? No backing out? O baka natatakot ka talaga ayaw mo lang ipahalata?" Napabuntong-hininga si Jhossa ng muling marinig ang tanong ni Shey.

Pang-ilang tanong na nga ba ito ng babaeng ito? Sa totoo lang medyo nakukunsumi na siya.

But the irony of it, eh sinasagot niya pa rin and tanong nito kahit pa nga ba paulit-ulit. Well she still believed that they deserved to know what's running on her mind.

For their peace. And for her own.

She heard someone huffed in annoyance, at ng balingan niya ang direksiyon na pinanggalingan nito ay nakita niya si Umaga na bahagyang nakataas ang kilay na binalingan si Shey.

" Seriously teh, naka unli ka ba ha? Paulit-ulit ka eh! Shunga Lang ang peg?" Nakatikwas ang kilay na tanong nito.

" I'm not asking you Umaga, so shut up!'' medyo pagigil na sagot naman ni Shey.

" Shut up also, ang sakit sa tenga ng paulit-ulit," Umaga matched Shey's irritation.

" Nagpabinyag ka ba ulit, Umaga? Well not unless your name is Jhossa, wala kang K na pagalitan ako, hmmp!"

" You are invading the rights of my ears ,"

" Kung gusto mo ng tahimik na lugar, punta ka ng sementeryo, at least doon mabibigyan ng katarungan yang sinasabi mong karapatan ng tenga mo, baliw! Or better yet balik ka doon sa Isla niyo at magmongha ka ng ilang taon para sa kapanatagan ng eardrums mo!"

Sasagot pa sana si Umaga ng sumingit sa  "umiinit" na pagtatalo ng dalawa si Glayssa.

" Tigilan niyo na nga yan'. Umayos kayong dalawa, ano ba kayo? Nariyan lang sa sala ang mga anak niyo, ano na lang ang magiging reaksyon  nila kapag nakita kayong dalawa na nag aaway at nagsasagutan pa? May mga pamilya na kayo so stop acting like a childish bitchy teenager okay," palatak ni Glayssa na halata ang iritasyon sa mukha, sa kanilang lahat ito yata ang mas pinaka-naaasar sa bangayan ng dalawa.

Angelica shutted mouth instantly habang pabulong- bulong naman na inabala ni Shey ang sarili sa paghahanda ng meryendang ibibigay nila sa kanilang mga chikiting.

" I'm telling you Shey, shut that colorful mouth of yours okay! Bubulong-bulong ka pa diyan, hmmp!" Iritable pa ring baling ni Glayssa kay Shey. Inirapan lang ito ni Shey

" Chill! Bakit parang pati ikaw gusto yatang sumabak sa giyera ng dalawang iyan?" Natatawa ng tanong niya sa kaibigan.

" Eh paano naman ang ingay ng dalawang iyan!" Nakabusangot na reklamo nito, halatang-halata ang iritasyon nito.

" Luh? Affected much? Buntis ka ba teh? Bakit ba ang sensitive ng mga luka-lukang ito huh? Care to tell me the reasons mga mare?" May panunukso sa boses ni Shey ng sabihin iyon, halos mawalan naman ng kulay ang mukha ng dalawa dahil sa hindi inaasahang sasabihin ng kaibigan.

" What the—?"

" That's outrageous—!"

" Yeah! Yeah! yeah! I'm brilliant I know! You're very much welcome though! Mukhang ako pa ang unang nakaalam! What can I say ? I'm very good, thank you very much," yumukod pa si Sheet na parang nagtatanghal lang.

" I better visit my OB," Glayssa muttered.

" Yeah me too," Angelica agreed.

Jhossa smiled. That's a revelation though huh! At buhat pa sa walang prenong bibig ni Shey Lyrica pa nanggaling ang sapantaha na iyon.

" Well if that's the case, then congrats my friends! Magiging nanay na ulit tayo," she said that earned an unglamorous laughed from all of them.

They began chatting endlessly ng  lahat sila ay nagulat ng hangos na pumasok sa loob ng kusina si Michelle, she was breathing heavily.

" Hey!" Hindi ipinahalata ni Jhossa ang kabang agad na bumundol say dibdib niya ng mapagmasdan ang kaibigan. She know for certain that whatever Michelle is going to say pertains to what they are going to do afterwards.

" Wait here Jho, I really need to catch my breath." Uminom muna ng tubig si Michelle at ilang beses na huminga ng malalim bago siya nilingon at nag-umpisang magpaliwanag.

" Everything is going well according to our plan. Mukhang kinakagat ni Lyka ang patibong natin. And it seems that Mirla is actually saying the truth. According to the information that I gathered galing na rin mismo kay Dr. Ren, a certain Lyka had herself admitted in Miller, she is posing to have an illness para nga naman magkaroon siya ng access sa loob ng hospital na hindi kahina-hinala. But unfortunately for her, hindi niya alam na naibenta na ni Mirla ang impormasyon niya sa atin."

" Dylan and Kyshaun is busy coordinating with all the staff in the hospital, telling them all those things that they  to do, Kaizer is dealing with the cops habang si Zach at si Meg naman ang nagbabantay kay Mirla in case she do something that is beyond what we have talked and planned about."

" All along Lyka thought she is  the queen, never knowing that she is now merely a pawn in this stupid idiotic game that she is trying to pull through," gigil na sabi ni Shey.

" A stupid little pawn! " Angelica added drily.

Jhossa tried to smile. She is forcing bravado in her face, but deep inside she is terrified.

What if something went wrong? Paano kung hindi umayon sa pinaplano nila ang magiging takbo ng mga pangyayari? What would happen to her? To her baby? To Karsten? And most especially sa kanila ni Kyshaun?

The woman she will face is not afraid of anything. Napatunayan na niya iyon ng ilang beses. Hindi ito takot na ilagay siya sa kapahamakan. She knows for a fact that Lyka wouldn't even blink an eye, magawan lang siya ng masama at ikapapahamak niya.

" You have to be brave Jho. This is our game! Your Game! You have to learn how to defend yourself, Hindi yung puro ka na lang tanggap ng sakit. Sometimes even if it's not right but if the situation calls for it, you have to fight. It is uncalled for but you need to do this. You need to face your nightmare! It's time to face the dilemma of Lyka!" Glayssa said, she reached for her hand and squeeze it tightly.

" And besides, we are here for you. Remember our promise to each other. That if one of us is weak, the remaining four need to be brave, alive and kicking butt, walang iwanan. Sama-sama sa lahat!, you can borrow our strength if you must , and please, do kick Lyka's butt for me will you?" , Angelica reminded gently.

Isang tipid na ngiti ang pinakawalan niya. Tama and mga ito. She needs to be strong!

This is her fight!

Her game!

Her time!

It's time to finished her business with Lyka, then after that , may Isa pa siyang unfinished business!

Tumalim ang mata niya nang maalala muli ang pangalan nito.

Her Unfinished Business!
