Behind Those Glasses

Chapter 6

"Sino naman ang makakagawa nun?"

"Sa ngayon hindi ko pa alam."

"Well, try to find out"

"I will"

"Good.."

I walked away to head out of the house.

"Saan ka pupunta?"

"Just outside"

"Snow!"

Napalingon kami sa may pintuan. It's Scarlet.

"Pinapatawag ka sa kataas-taasan." Hinihingal niyang sabi. She is one of us. Utusan din.

"Why? What is it?"

"It's better if you should know it yourself."

Mukhang importante kasi hinihingal si Scarlet para makapunta dito.

What do they need? Another mission again? Wala akong magawa kundi sumunod sa utos nila. They help me stand on my own without my parents. They adopted me as their child and as a my payment to them, I need to take their command and that makes me like a hitman. Killing a person which I don't know the reason.

A killing machine? Whatever...

"I'll go ahead." The three of them just nodded and continued on what they were doing.

"What took you so long Snow!" My step father just shouted at me. He is really angry. I just keep myself calm and I'm used to his temper.

"I was at the basement training, father"

"Training?! Training again?! Sobrang galing mo na! Why are you wasting your time!" He is really mad. "Gusto ko na kapag kailangan kita hindi na ako mahihirapang hanapin ka." Yumuko ako to show respect and that I am sorry.

May inihagis siyang brown envelope sa mesa niya.

"You know what to do " Madiin niyang sabi. Humakbang ako papalapit sa table niya at dinampot ang brown envelope. Yumuko ako bago lumabas.

Lumabas na ako sa office niya and just as I was about to take my first step I saw him

"Snow! My sister! Got another mission huh?" Inakbayan niya ako.

"Stephen, let go of me." Tinanggal ko yung kamay niya na nakaakbay sa akin saka siya sinikmuraan.

"Ow!"

Stephen Murlhey, my step brother. The only son of Mr. & Mrs. Murlhey— the one who adopted me. Somehow he's insecure of me. Why? Because his father never gave him any mission like I have. He always fails his mission. He is good in many martial arts, but I think he always shows mercy, unlike me, I take every mission seriously and without any hesitations, I kill.

"That hurts! You want a piece of me?!" Blangko ko siyang tiningnan. He raised his fist as if he is gonna punch my face.

"Go ahead Stephen, as if you can." I challenged him and I can reflect mercy in his eyes. See?

"I can't" he gave up. "Why can't I beat you up!" He is frustrated and angry, of himself I guess?

"Stephen, if you want your father to notice you, do your job seriously. Don't show mercy!" Hi brows met in disbelief.

"Snow, how can you kill a person so quick? Don't you have any conscience?"

"Because a certain person killed my parents without mercy, might as well kill without it. Kahit hindi sila ang pumatay sa parents ko. Besides, they command us to kill that person, because of a reason. And we should not interfere with it. Got that?" I give him one last glance and walked away.

Pumasok ako sa kwarto ko dito sa mansion. Since I'm adopted, might as well make a room for me right? Umupo ako sa kama ko at binuksan ang brown envelope. A profile of a man with his pictures.

Name: Leonardo S. Carreon

Age: 33 years old

Specialty: Kick boxing

Likes: Girls

Mafia: Black Lion

Black Lion?

Hmmm... Sounds fun.

Bakit palagi nalang akong nasasangkot sa Black Lion's Mafia ngayon? Is it a sign na I'll finally take them down once and for all?

Nagsuot muna ako ng black dress with black stilleto heels. This will serve as my disguise.

I drove myself to the place na nakasulat sa binigay ni Sir Murlhey. So, he likes poker.

I found myself in front of a casino. Nasa liblib ito na lugar at tanging mga underground people lang ang makapasok dito kaya sobrang tahimik ng paligid. I put on my round hat so no one would recognize me. Sinuot ko din yung shades ko at shoulder bag ko. I hide my gun inside my bag. This is going to be fun.

Humakbang ako papuntang entrance but before that, muscled men appeared before me.

"Excuse me Ma'am"

"Yes" I have to use my British accent to fool them, perfect for my disguise.

"Do you have any invitation?" Sabi nung isa na may bigote. Invitation? Do you really need that in a casino?

"Oh God! I forgot it!"I gasp as if I really forgot it. "Well, I'm with Mr. Leonardo S. Carreon"

"Wait Ma'am, I'll give him a call." Kinuha nung kalbo ang phone niya.

"Yes Sir.... Someone here said she is with you." Binaba niya saglit ang phone. "Name po?"

"A-ah, Sophia, Sophia Wilson"I replied.

"Sophia Wilson Sir.... Yes.... Okay." He hung up and faced me. "I'm sorry ma'am pero wala siyang kilalang Sophia Wilson." He said.

"Uh, just let me in!" I insisted.

"It's against the rule, we're so sorry but you need to go." Sabi nung may bigote and he pushes me away.

"Oh come on. That's absurd"

"You need to go"

Fine! Want to do this the hard way? I step forward and faced the two of them.

"Let's stop the charades." Kinuha ko ang baril ko na may silencer at tinapat kay kalbo. "Sweet Dreams..." Pinutok ko ito sa ulo niya. Sa peripheral version nakita ko yung may bigote na kinuha niya ang kanyang baril but I'm faster than him and blew his head.

Luminga-linga ako sa paligid at sinisigurong walang nakakakita. Pumasok na ako sa loob. Pagkapasok ko, ang tahimik ng paligid. Obviously busy. Hmmm...

"Excuse me Ma'am." Sabi nung babae

"Yes"

"Who are you with?"

"I'm here for Mr. Leonardo Carreon"

"Name please"

"Sophia Wilson"

"This way"

She lead the way to Mr. Leonardo. The girl whispered something at him. Afterwards, he turned his head at me.

"Sophia Wilson, right?"

"That's the name"

"So what brings you here? Such a gorgeous girl going a place like this"

"Well, I'm here to play poker with you"

"Oh, please don't." He chuckled. "Ayokong makita yung talo mong mukha."

"Come on, I insist"

"Well then, anong itataya mo?"

"Itataya ko ang aking titulo " He then grin.

"A lot? Isn't that too much?"

"No, Mr. Carreon, not at all. It's a small price for me"

"Well, then, let's start"

It was a silent game and it's a 50/50 win. I look at him and he look at me as well. The game ended and guess who won? Him. Obviously I don't have a chance in winning since I'm not really into poker.

"Well, can I see the papers?" I hesitated in giving him the papers. But I was caught off-guard so I gave him the papers.

"Wow! 200 hectares! Where did you get this wide lot?"hindi makapaniwalang sambit niya.

"I have my ways Mr. Carreon." I smiled a little at him. There's no much time! I need to do this already.

"Ah, Mr. Carreon, should we take this negotiation outside?"

"Most certainly Ms. Wilson. Shall we?"I smiled at him and followed him. Bigla akong nagulat nang pumunta kami sa itaas ng place.

"I hope you don't mind me asking but where are we going Mr. Carreon?"

We arrived at the place where no one can see us. We're alone.

"Come on Mr. Wilson, I know you only wanted my body so pagbigyan kita." Nanlaki ang mga mata ko.

"Excuse me Mr. Carreon but I'm here just to play!" Madiin kong sabi.

He does have a good physique but damn I'm not interested!

"Sshh.. I know you want me. Come on, 'wag ka ng magpakipot." He started walking towards me. He reach for my breast but I slap away his hands.

"Playing hard to get eh Ms. Wilson? That's what I like!"

"Stop Mr. Carreon..." He walks closer to me but before that, I got my gun at tinutok sa ulo niya.

"One wrong move Mr. Carreon." I grinned. He smiled at me and laughed sarcastically.

"You want to shoot me in the head?" Hindi ko pa rin tinanggal ang shades ko. Before I can react, he kick my stomach and I fell down. I didn't see that coming. I stood up showing him that I wasn't affected.

"Oh, you're trained." ahe smirk. Sisipain niya sana ako sa mukha pero nakailag ako. I punched his jaw and in an instant, he was on the floor. I kick his stomach that made him spit blood. Oh how I love looking at people's suffering.

"N-nice k-kick Kid" Through all my kicks and punches he still managed to talk.

I was shocked when I felt some cold metallic thing just struck on my side. And I know how deep he stab me.

"Y-you like it?" He smirked.
