"Wait! Why did we lose our cameras here, Felmar?" I asked.
Felmar shook his head at me.
"Tayong dalawa lang ang nakakaalam na merong mga camera dito." I added.
"Felmar, may kinalaman ka ba dito?" Vlaster asked him dahilan para mapailing ulit siya.
"Wala po akong kinalaman diyan. Inutusan lang po akong nagkabit ni Ma'am Cali."
"Pero paano nga nawala yung mga yun kung kayo lang ang nakakaalam?" Moraine asked.
"That's what we don't know."
"Felmar, baka naman kasi may kinalaman ka rito? Pinapahirapan mo pa kami. You already know that we don't want a staff like that." Moraine said.
"P-pero Ma'am Moraine, wala po talaga akong kinalaman diyan. Nasabi naman na po ni Dshárz na umutang po ako sa kaniya ng ganun kalaking pera. Hindi ko magagawang pagnakawan kayo."
"Alam mo Felmar? Just because of this, nawawalan na ako ng tiwala sayo. Napapaniwala na ako ni Kimara. I'm so disappointed to you."
"Moraine please, stop." I said while looking at Felmar's innocent face.
"Cali, kakampihan mo pa talaga yang magnanakaw na yan?" Moraine asked.
"Sorry Cali but I agree with Moraine. Mas kakampihan mo pa yang Felmar na yan? Pinapaikot ka lang niyan. Nagpapaawa para hindi siya pagbintangan." Vlaster replied.
"Baka ikaw din mismo nagtanggal nung mga itinago niyong camera para hindi makita yung pagnakaw mo ng pera. Bakit ba hindi mo gayahin si Luke?"
"Moraine, hindi pa pumapasok si Luke. Hindi naman yata tamang gayahin ni Felmar ang ganung klaseng tao?" I defend Felmar's side.
"Ma'am Cali, salamat po sa pagtatanggol sa akin. Hayaan niyo po, magreresign na lang po ako para hindi na po kayo mag-aaway away pa."
"Kung magreresign ka, parang pinapatunayan mo lang na ikaw nga talaga yung nagnakaw." Moraine replied.
Dad was right. It's hard when we end up in this situation. But there is nothing harder than marrying someone you don't know. Am I such a worthless person that problems come to me one after another?
"Babayaran ko na lang po ang nawawalang pera niyo. Maghahanap na lang ako ng ibang trabaho para kahit papaano, mabayaran ko po kayo."
"You don't need to pay, Felmar. Hindi ikaw ang kumuha kaya wala kang dapat bayaran." I looked at Moraine.
"Ma'am Cali, magbabayad po ako. Thank you for defending me. I'll go ahead na po." he said and walked away.
Nagkatinginan kaming tatlo nina Moraine at Vlaster. We just stood there without talking to each other until Eli was arrived.
"What happened?" Eli asked.
"We're losing 300,000 pesos. Yung mga hidden camera na ikinabit namin ni Felmar, nawawala. Paano namin malaman kung sinong kumuha? Ito namang sina Vlaster at Moraine, pinagbibintangan si Felmar kaya umalis yung tao." litanya ko.
"By the way, before we start to solve that problem, kasama ko nga pala yung kaibigan ko." he said and a guy appeared to us.
"He's-"
"Traise?" putol ko sa sasabihin ni Eli.
Traise just looked at me seriously.
"How did you know him, Cali?" Eli asked.
"Iced coffee." I replied and Eli got what I said so he nodded.
"How can we solve this problem?" I asked.
"The hidden cameras. I know who took it." Eli replied.
Pareho pareho kami ng reaksyon.
"Who?" sabay naming tanong ni Moraine.
"T-tito Carlo." I shook my head.
This can't be.
"Eli, are you kidding right?"
"No Cali, I saw him last Saturday. I came here at night and then I saw him. I saw what he did. And the worse part here, kasama niya si Tita Amor."
Moraine looked at me and shook her head.
"Paano nila nagawa sa akin yun?" I asked while trying to calm myself.
"Simple. Because they want you to work in your company." Vlaster answered.
Napapatingin lang sa amin isa isa si Traise.
"How can we find out kung sinong kumuha ng pera?" Moraine asked.
"Mabuti na lang, matalino akong tao. After Tito Carlo took the cameras, nagkabit ako ng iba. Thanks to Traise, he helped me."
Para akong nabunutan ng malaking tinik sa narinig.
"There!" sabay sabay kaming napalingon sa itinuro ni Eli. Doon namin nakita ang isang mini spy camera.
"It connected to my phone and I already know who took your money."
"May ideya na kami kung sino at si Felmar yun." Moraine said.
"Moraine please, hindi pa tayo sigurado kung si Felmar nga yun. At alam naman natin pareho na hindi niya magagawa sa atin yun."
"You're right, Cali. Hindi si Felmar ang may sala."
"Then who?" Moraine asked angrily.
"Luke came here last night." Eli said.
"And then he took the money. Si Luke ang nagnakaw and not Felmar." he added.
Parehong natahimik sina Vlaster at Moraine. They accused the wrong person and defend the real one who took it.
"Then who took my diary?"
"Ms. Sanchez." Eli replied.
"Luke Joson and Kimara Sanchez are in a relationship." he added dahilan para malaglag ang panga namin.
