Redon

Chapter 10

Sayra

" What the f**k do you think you're doing?!" I flinched because of how he cursed someone who's on the other line.

I'm already ready to get discharged but one of the officers said that they changed the location where I'll stay for the mean time while the investigation carry on. Bonito is so annoyed about the changes and now I'm here dealing with his unending curses.

The officer beside me shook his head making me look at him. He smiled awkwardly at me and then look at his wrist watch.

" Suavez, we need to bring her to the location, it's already late " he spoke that made Bonito look at our direction. Bonito's sharp glares met ours making me gulp. Why is this guys so scary, I asked my self and then looked away .

They said that they already sent someone to get Kyla but they didn't find her. They've been looking for files and pictures of her to help them recognize her. I'm very worried about her but I need to protect myself from harm too. If I can help the police to track and catch Lupo, then I'll be able to save a lot of kids from that kind of life.

I never thought that I'll be able to work with the police but now I'm here risking everything. If they want to kill me and they work for Lupo then I should've died from the very first night I came to the precinct. I don't have any choice but to take risk, it all depends now on my luck.

" We'll be able to find your friend, for now you just need to cooperate with us and we'll assure you that you and your friend will be protected " the cop beside me stated making me lick my lips. Maybe he can notice that I'm tensed right now.

I sighed and then looked at Bonito who's still arguing with someone. Is this the time to argue? Where did they relocate me? Is it a bad place that's why he's being annoyed?

" Who is he talking to?" I asked the cop beside me . Officer Bonito looks so mad but I know that he won't talk to his superiors like that.

" Oh I think he's talking to the chief " he answered calmly making me look at him unbelievably. Damn, who is Bonito to talk like that to a chief?

I stared at Bonito and notice his smooth skin. His clothes are for sure expensive and branded . The way he talk and move tells you that he's just not an average person. As I remember, he's with that playful guy in that bar. That guy is undeniably rich, I'm pretty sure about that and he's friend with Bonito. Does that mean..

I looked up at Bonito and stared at him intently. s**t, why do I keep on meeting rich guys? Not just rich but also as gorgeous as them.

I shook my head , it's impossible to get something from them and use them. Bonito's smart and especially that playful guy. I can still remember his playful grins and taunting eyes.

I shook my head to erase the thoughts . I looked away and then sigh. I wish Kyla's good right now.

" Let's go " Bonito said with his brows knotted in annoyance. He grabbed the small bag of things I own. Those are the clothes they gave me when I was on the precinct.

" Where are we going?" I asked and the other cop helped me sit on the wheelchair. It's midnight right now. They said that this is the best time to travel. The details of my stay here in the hospital are confidential and secret to the public. It is to protect me from harm.

" Isabela " he answered shortly. I inhaled deeply as the cop behind me pushed the wheelchair.

I was wearing a mask and a hoodie to hide my face. I looked intently at the door and then gulped hardly.

Either I die or live , the answer lies behind that door.

...

I woke up because of the sound of the car's door opening. I didn't open my eyes as I still feel tired. My eyelids feel so heavy that it refuses to open even though I try.

" Wake her up " I heard Bonito's voice talking to someone else.

" Sayra, Sayra " a familiar voice called out my name trying to wake me up. I wrinkled my forehead and groaned as I try to open my eyes.

" We're here " he added . I forced myself to open my eyes but I quickly closed it again as the bright light blinded me.

I kept my eyes closed but I moved my body to sit properly.

" Can you go out on your own?" The cop added making me realized that it's him. I slowly opened my eyes while my hand is covering my face from the light.

I blinked quickly and then his face slowly cleared up making me recognize him anymore. Damn, not gonna lie he looks bad.

" Are we here?" I asked and tried to look outside but I winced in pain when I unintentionally put pressure on my shoulder.

" Ohh easy, we're here " he said chuckling making me look at him.

I think it's morning already because it's bright. If I'm right , I got transferred to another hospital far from Nueva Ecija when my condition got stable. It's too make sure that the attackers won't find me.

I slowly moved out of the car , careful to not do anything that might open my stitches. Bonito is waiting from outside with the wheelchair. I nodded at him but he just looked away. Why is he extra cold today?

The other cop helped me sit on the wheelchair .

" Thanks " I said and he just smiled at me. He's gentle not like this guy behind me . I rolled my eyes because of annoyance.

Bonito pushed the wheelchair towards the tall door of a very big house. My eyes widened in awe as I stare at the mansion in front of me. I'm staying here?

I looked around the place and gasped when I realized that this place is very huge. There's a fountain, a big garden and it's own driveway.

" Yes you're staying here " Bonito stated as if he knows what's on my mind. I looked up to him and grinned widely.

" It's very nice " I can't help but get excited . I never had the chance to live in a decent house but now I'm here staying at a big mansion.

Kyla, I hope that you can stay here with me, I hopefully wished as I felt happiness, sadness and worry at the same time.

An old lady wearing a maid uniform nodded her head at us .

" Good morning Señorito Bonito , Sir Benitez and Miss Miguel " she greeted us making me gasp in excitement.

I didn't know that I'll be able to stay here in exchange of my near death experience. Wjo would've thought that I'll be able to step inside a mansion?

She opened the front door for us and my eyes dilated , mesmerized by the sudden turn of events.

The grand chandelier caught my attention first because of it's shiny and beautiful lights. My eyes went down to the stairs and I noticed that there's a second floor .

" f**k!! " A loud voice suddenly echoed throughout the corners of the mansion making me froze on the spot.

That voice...

My eyes widened in shock when the guy in my mind suddenly appeared wearing an oversized shirt and pajama while running on the staircase.

" Señorito! Don't run , it's dangerous ! " A girl's voice echoed but my eyes are fixated at the guy running towards my direction.

He stopped in front of me and hold his knees while catching his breath. He suddenly rest his hands at the back of my wheelchair pinning me while he's staring at me intently.

" Dude " I heard Bonito from behind me but this playful guy didn't budge.

I kept quiet while looking deeply at his emerald eyes. I inhaled smelling his familiar perfume and it still has the same effect on me. I still feel comfortable around this guy.

" We met again, " he said and then smiled showing his white set of teeth.

I felt my throat turning dry because of his charm. My eyes are focused on his wet tempting lips . I quickly looked up and stared at his eyes when a sudden urge to give him a peck on the lips crossed my mind.

" - Sayra " he continued and then patted my head gently giving me butterflies.
