Silhouette
"Omygosh, this is so beautiful!" I cried as I looked at the painting in front of me.
Third, took me to another house of his where he had not used it for a long time, this is also where his other vehicles were piled up.
"Ofcourse, it is beautiful, you are the model," he said while smiling.
I worshiped him with a hug out of sheer joy. The painting is so beautiful, it seems so real.
"Who painted this?" I asked, smiling.
"Brother Trigger's wife, Miracle," he replied.
I gasped in delight. "Wow, she's a talented woman. She's really good," I said excitedly.
He kissed my forehead gently. "I'm so glad you liked it."
"No! I love it!" tili ko.
He chuckled while hugging my waist.
I was about to say something more when suddenly his call rang. I watched him as I looked at who was calling.
"Oh, baby, I have to take this call for a minute. Stay here," he instructed me.
Smiling, I nodded before driving him away. When he disappeared from my sight I just looked at the beautiful painting in front of me.
"I can't believe that he did this for me, he really bothered Ate Miracle," I whispered softly.
I turned around and noticed that there were actually a lot of cars piled up here. I just laughed, this man's real wealth. All the cars here are gold priced.
I took a walk to count how many vehicles had been abandoned, and I caught the attention of a vehicle in the distance.
My forehead furrowed and the smile disappeared from my lips as I watched that van.
A black van.
I stepped closer to the car seat.
"Isn't there always a van here hanging around? I think that's one of the culprits!" I heard manang Maricel say to the police while they were investigating her.
I even lowered my hat to cover my face.
"Do you remember what the plate number is?"
"Oh no! Not anymore, but the girl who lives here is. She even told me the story, it's just that I don't know where she is anymore."
I felt tears trickle down my cheeks as I finally approached the black car.
I covered my mouth to avoid sobbing when I read its plate number.
It was the exact plate number of that van. VIP 958.
How did this car get here? Why does Third own it?
Crying I was held to the wall next to me to support myself. My chest tightens, I try to get rid of the negative things inside my brain. But no matter what I do, I can't get rid of those, the fact that Third was involved in the deaths of the people I love dearly.
"Silhouette."
I angrily turned to the man in the back. The shock on her face was obvious when she saw me crying.
He was about to approach me but I quickly backed away. "No! Don't you ever come near me!"
I saw the passing of pain in his eyes. But I don't know anything about that.
"B-Baby, what's happening?" He tried to approach again but I immediately yelled at him.
"I said don't come near me!" I cried and cried.
Shaking hands I pointed to the van in the back. "That v-van, do you own it?"
He turned there before nodding slowly. I cried even more when he confirmed.
"38 people died on Lazaro street, they were massacred by unknown p-people. Tell me, what have you got to do with that crime ?!" my continuation.
I could see the tears welling up in her eyes.
"Baby, p-please, let's talk about this. It's not like this, I'm afraid you might run away from me, p-please?" he begs untag.
I violently wiped away my tears.
"I'm asking you, T-Third. You have a chance to refuse and confess to me, so I'm begging you, s-answer my question," rasped the voice as I pleaded with him.
She bowed her head, tugging at her own hair before crying to face me.
"I was there," he said.
My heart ached at what I heard, as well as at the tone of his voice.
"What the hell are you doing there, Third Kaizer Knights? Answer me!" I added.
"B-Baby, please, let's not fight," he said pleadingly.
I looked up as I tried to calm myself.
"O-Okay, so let me settle this one, Third. A-I don't want to think any worse, maybe, you were there because you just passed by. T-Right? 'Right? You have nothing to do with that, right? me? " I asked him with full determination.
He didn't kill them. He's not the suspect, Silhouette. He can't do that.
I was stunned when he remained silent on what I said. He didn't even confirm what I just said. He had no answer.
"Why are you so quiet? Your s-silence is scaring me, Third. Just admit it to me, my love, w-you're not at fault there, are you?" I repeat.
But he became even quieter.
I could no longer avoid cracking my voice."Why didn't you answer? D-Did you really kill them?"
It was as if heaven and earth were falling on me as he slowly nodded.
"I d-did, baby. I did. I killed them," she cried admitting.
That was the last I heard before I disappeared from reality. My breathing quickened, trying to shake my head to get my thoughts gone.
He admitted the crime he did. He admitted it.
"Baby, I'm so-sorry." I was stunned when he stepped closer to me.
"N-No, don't you ever dare to come near me, Third. You're disgusting, you d-demon, I hate you!" I shouted angrily.
"How dare you kill people who haven't done anything bad to you ?! They're all innocent! How dare you kill them! They have no opponent against you, s-you," I said weakly.
"I can't believe that I love a man like you. You're disgusting," I said firmly before running away from that place.
