CHAPTER 16: THE FIRST LOSE
Tonight is the night. I went to Roman’s house with Victor. I know he is scared but there’s nothing to be afraid of because I am here for him. After minutes of flying around. I found him in his resort in Batangas and he looked so calm, watching a movie in his mini-theater. The place is so quiet. The only things that I can hear are the waves of the sea and the sound of the movie that he is watching. He is having a brandy too and he is so relaxed as if he didn’t kill a poor boy. I can say that Roman is a lonely man. Even he is living a life that everybody is dreaming of. No wife, no children, no family. I saw his dog unease, looking around and trying to find us. The dog can feel our presence but it can’t see us. His dog barks at us and he just shouts to the dog to keep quiet because he is watching. He doesn’t want to be disturbed by the movie that he is watching. He is sitting on a couch like a lazy potato and he doesn&rsquo

AZRAEL CHAPTER 17: THE EFFECT OF LOSING
I woke up inside my apartment wearing only boxer shorts. My whole body is aching and the wounds and bruises are still visible in my arms and face. I slowly stand up to get my shirt inside my bag. I can still feel my body aching because of what happened last night. I also check my teeth if it is still complete. I open my mouth wide, let my tongue glide to feel if there’s a tooth missing and I feel good because my teeth are still complete. My head is still aching from what happened. I feel like my brain is shaken and my skull is broken. I can still see Victor’s face and it cannot be erased in my head, and what he looks like when he is asking for my help. He spread his arm for me to reach him but everything happened so fast and I can’t help myself but watch him taken by the white smoke, and gone like a firefly. It happened too fast or I am just too slow? I don’t know what exactly happened because I didn’t expect it all, but
AZRAEL CHAPTER 18: WHO KILLS THE WINNER?
I think of what Michael told me that I don’t need to be emotionally attached to humans. They are sucking up my energy but how can I not be attached? I am a human too and seeing them hurt also hurts me. I know some humans might just use me like what my ex-wife, Maria did but I know humans are not the same and I still believe that most humans are good and only some are bad. Michael said that to lose the white smoke is to be fast. Like I need to get the target first before he gets mine and I will do that next time. He defeated me once and he will never defeat me again. If ever we will meet again. I will never let him win over me anymore. No more another Victor and I promised that to myself.As I walked in the busy city of Manila. I saw a red balloon tied to the bench. I looked around to see who owns it but I saw no one. That is why I untied it and found the girl who is selling me Sampaguita a while ago
AZRAEL CHAPTER 19: ABE AND KEIN
I saw disappointment and anger in his eyes because he didn’t expect that Kein, his brother, would plan the explosion just to get rid of him. His brother wants his life. His brother that he helped to have a chance to live a normal life will ruin his life. I can feel him unstoppable now. He is not talking but there is tension inside of him. Well, I cannot blame him because he felt betrayed by his blood. We went to his house and we saw his brother’s car was parked outside. My black smoke suddenly appears from my tattoo and my hands. It means that we have the right target. We heard his wife and his brother talking.“Why don't you want to live?” His wife asked Kein.“Don’t push me away” His brother said to his wife“I want you, Shaira, please, I love you… pleas
AZRAEL CHAPTER 20: ABE, TANIA, AND LILY
“Hurry,” I said and she took her children in an instant. Without an idea of what I am saying and where we are going. She carries Dustin while I carry Anna and without a word. We went to the Mayor’s political gathering even though she didn’t have a complete idea about what we were going to do here. We waited backstage for the mayor to go down. The guard wants us to leave and wait at the front stage but I told them not to leave because I need to talk to the mayor. I remember what Michael said that I don’t need to be attached to humans but here I am. I hypnotized the guard to let us stay and leave us alone. We are waiting for the Mayor to finish his speech and go backstage where we are waiting. I heard Dustin cry. Maybe he is not comfortable already because of the crowd and the noises that make him exhausted. I put Anna down and carried him and I tried to calm him down, but he was still crying. Finally, the mayor went down.
AZRAEL CHAPTER 21: HELLO, BILLY
We went inside the house and I looked around. They have a piano, picture frames at the top of it, and cross stitches hanging on the wall. I saw pictures of Lily and Billy and they look so young. I guess they are only nine years old in the photo and they look like each other. They are identical twins and they seem to love each other. I don’t see any reason why Billy would kill her sister. Her twin. I heard the piano playing and Lily is the one who is playing it with her closed eyes and a smile on her face. She is good at playing the piano. She is playing Beethoven’s moonlight sonata. What a wonderful song and yet so classic. I listened to her playing the piano. The house is so quiet and the music from the piano filled the whole house. I saw a sudden tear in her eyes. Maybe she misses something or she is carried away by the song that she is playing. I didn’t disturb her in her moment because I wanted her to concentrate. She loves her s
AZRAEL CHAPTER 22: I AM IN HER DREAM
Tonight I will visit her. I want to stare at her face, be close to her and show her how sorry I was for causing her too much pain. I will let her know that I miss her each passing day, that she is so close and yet so far. I will hug her and make her feel that I still love her even only in her dreams. I will kiss her pain away even for a while and make her feel loved by me even for one night. I went to her room and I saw her sleeping in her nightdress. She is so beautiful. She is like a princess sleeping for a thousand years and waiting for her prince to kiss her. Her cherry lips are tempting me, her body is calling me. I sat on her bed beside her and whispered,“Hello, my majesty” I saw her smile with her eyes closed. She hugged her pillow for dreaming that it was me.“I am here now, my majesty,” I said and touched her face.
AZRAEL CHAPTER 23: LOOK, WHO'S BACK?
I was surprised to see Maria because I didn’t expect to see her again. She still looks the same, the hair, the body, the way she looked at me. It is still the same except for her looks. She looks a little older. It has been so long since I haven’t seen her since Tania came into my life. I never looked for her anymore. I don’t know what to say. I can’t move, I feel like I see a ghost. She came near me and smiled at me, her smile is still the same. Except for the wrinkles that are showing on her face that make her look stressed. She held my hand and I didn’t refuse. I am staring at her even though I don't feel love for her anymore. She looks me into my eyes while still wearing a smile on her face. I don’t know what her smile is for? Because seeing her again unexpectedly doesn’t make me happy.“I miss you,” She said in a cold voice and she tried to k
AZRAEL CHAPTER 24: HUNTING HER LOVER
We are about to go and find her lover when I saw Tania wearing office attire that makes her look good, her beauty is shining and she looks so stunning. She has a job now and I know she got a good one. I saw Maria looking at me while I was staring at Tania. I felt jealousy from her but I pretended that I didn’t know. I ignore her jealousy and ask her about her lover’s house. Without hesitation, she told me where he lives and we went to his mansion somewhere in Aurora. Isaiah is a wealthy man. Maria said that Isaiah’s grandfather and his father are famous politicians. Maybe those who adopted him are wealthy or I am the one who is adopted. I looked at his white-painted mansion with a yellowish gold lining in each corner of the mansion that makes it look elegant. The bermudagrass is well trimmed and the flowers are wet. They were well-watered. I saw two big white cubs pass in front of us. They stopped for a moment in front of us and star
