Captivated by a Thief Chapter Thirty-Six
Gabriella loves spoiling Niana.Iyon ang napansin ni Ryce sa pagsama sa dalawa dahil kahit anong ituro ng bata ay binibili ng kaniyang asawa na walang pagdadalawang isip.Perhaps, Gabriella already sees that coming kaya isinama sya nito para gawing tagabuhat ng mga pinamili nila.Mag-isang pumunta sa parking lot si Ryce at inilagay sa backseat ang mga paper bag na bitbit para makapagpahinga ang kamay nya.Pagkatapos ay bumalik sya sa loob ng mall at malalaki ang hakbang na naglakad papunta sa pwesto kung saan nya iniwan ang magpinsan kanina.May hawak sina Gabriella at Niana na dalawang malaking popcorn at tatlong juice. They were going to watch a movie together. Malapit ng magsimula ang palabas kaya pumasok silang tatlo sa loob ng sinehan.While watching the show, ayaw syang hatian ni Niana sa hawak nitong malaking popcorn. Umupo ito sa gitna nila dahil ayaw nitong magkatabi sila ng kaniyang asawa.Ryce frowned.He could feel that the kid doesn't like him. Did he do some wrong? Bakit

It was 4 o'clock and Quel was busy scrolling on his social media account to kill his boredom. When nothing piqued his interest, he searched for Jewel's account and check if she has a recent post—only to find out that his friend has switched her account to private.Quel frowned. 'Bakit?'Ayaw nyang isipin na sya ang dahilan pero mukhang sya nga.'If she won't public her account in a week, I'm gonna delete all of my social media accounts.'Pinatong nya sa counter table ang hawak na selpon at tumayo. Pumunta sya sa kusina ng kaniyang bahay para uminom ng malamig na tubig.He remembered his last conversation with Jewel.Inamin nya dito ang totoong nararamdaman nya but he's already late. Jewel has a boyfriend that she's been dating for 3 years. Maybe he shouldn't have confessed his feelings for her. He doesn't know that she's already taken. But of course, it's not surprising. Jewel has always been popular with men. He tightened the grip on the glass he's holding.Sa t'wing naiisip nya na

Quel is hurt. Being rejected by Jewel for the second time hurts a lot. But he's not mad at her.Hindi nya kayang magalit dito dahil hindi naman nito kasalanan na nagustuhan nya ang babae.It's his own feelings. He's the one who fell in love with her so he needs to deal with it on his own. He can never get mad at his friend and blame her for hurting his feelings twice.Nanatili si Quel na nakatayo sa labas ng malaking gate habang nakayuko at hindi makagalaw. Hindi sya makakilos dahil sobrang bigat ng nararamdaman nya.But he knew he couldn't stay there forever kaya gamit ang natitira nyang lakas ay kinaya nyang maglakad pabalik sa loob ng kaniyang kotse.Mahina nyang sinara ang pinto at bumuntong hininga bago nagsimulang magmaneho.Instead of driving back home, dumiretsyo sya sa bar kung saan sila nag celebrate noong kaarawan ni Gabriella.It's not fun to drink alone kaya kinuha nya ang kaniyang cellphone at tinawagan ang kaibigan.It took 3 rings before Gabriella answered his call.

Quel and Ryce continued to drink.The thoughts that Gabriella likes him continued to echoed on his mind. Si Quel ang unang nalasing sa kanilang dalawa at panay ang pagkukuwento nito tungkol sa kaniyang kaibigan."Gabriella is my childhood friend. We're really close. Pero mas gusto nyang naglalaro ng mobile games mag-isa kesa makipaglaro saamin ng pinsan nyang si Jewel sa labas. Alam mo ba, noong minsan namin syang makumbinsi na sumali sa laro namin na tagu-taguan at sya ang naging taya, hindi pa sampung minuto ang nakakalipas na hindi nya kami nahahanap ay umuwi agad sya. Nang tanungin namin kung bakit, sinabi nya na bigla daw syang naboring at inantok. Tapos tinamad din daw syang maghanap saamin kaya iniwan nya kami. Your wife is unbelievable...""Ito pa, noong may nanligaw sakanya na exchanged student from China, nainis sya dahil kahit marunong itong mag English ay panay ang pagkakausap sakanya nito ng Chinese, kaya ayun, kinausap nya ng Spanish.

Agad na tinanggihan ni Gabriella ang inbitasyon ng ina pero nang malamang sasama ang asawa ay pumayag rin sya.She doesn't know how to play golf. She only played golf games on her phone before but she never get to try playing golf in real life so Ryce volunteered to teach her.Pagkatapos i-explain sakanya ng asawa ang basic rules ay tinuruan naman siya nito sa pag set up ng kaniyang swing.1) Stand with your knees and hips slightly bent.

When lifting the club, the order from out to in should go clubhead, hands, arms, shoulders, and hips. Your dominant arm should stay

Agent Angel just successfully finished her 23rd mission. Natapos nya ito ng walang pawis at pagod dahil para sakanya, hindi uso ang salitang "mahirap" lalo na pagdating sa paggawa ng misyon."Nandito ka ba ulit para humingi ng panibago?" tanong ni Quel, ang kaniyang overseer na itinuturi nya ring isang matalik na kaibigan."Oo sana, pero kung madali lang ulit yan kagaya ng mga nauna kong misyon, ibigay mo nalang sa iba..." she answered bago umupo sa sofa at ipinag-krus ang kaniyang dalawang braso at paa."Iba ang misyon na 'to. Tungkol ito sa magnanakaw na hanggang ngayon ay hirap na hirap hulihin ng mga kapulisan.""Isang magnanakaw?" Agent Angel asked while raising one of her eyebrows."Yup. Kilala sya sa alyas na 'Silent Thief' at ang kanyang mga ninanakaw ay mga mamahaling jewelries at paintings. Huli siyang nakita 5 years ago, pero kagabi ay merong report na natanggap ang mga pulis na bumalik na naman daw ito sa pagnanakaw. Ilang taon na ang nakalipas, pero hindi parin ito mahuli

Silent Thief is not just like an ordinary thief.Bago sya magnakaw ay nagbibigay muna sya ng update sa pulis kung saan at kailan sya magnanakaw sa pamamagitan ng paghack ng computer data nito.His next target would be displayed on their computers' screen with a sketch of blue roses beside the name he's popularly known as—— Silent Thief.Nang marinig na pupunta ito sa Salazar Museum ngayong gabi para nakawin ang painting na isasali sa isang auction ay agad na nag-isip ng plano si Agent Angel para simulan na ang kaniyang misyon.Upang hindi mahalata na iba ang kaniyang pakay doon ay nagsuot sya ng makintab at magarang bistida na hapit na hapit sa kaniyang bewang. Hindi nagtagal ay nagsimula na ang auction para sa mga paintings. Maraming businessman at business woman ang nandoon upang magwaldas ng napakaraming pera para makuha ang painting na gusto nila o kaya naman ay gusto lang magmayabang sa mga kakilala nilang nandoon din.Agent Angel doesn't have any plan of joining the auction at

For the very first time, Gabriella went home from the mission, devastated.Nakatanggap sya ng tawag mula sa agency pero hindi nya ito sinagot dahil pakiramdam nya ay napahiya nya ng sobra ang sarili.She just lost 300 million dollars for a single painting and she also failed to catch the thief.She's so mad and disappointed at herself and she doesn't want to talk to anyone—specially someone from the agency. Siguro ay gagawin nya ito mamaya kapag napakalma nya ng konti ang sarili nya.Pumasok si Gabriella sa banyo ng kaniyang kwarto at nagbabad sa bathtub habang sumisipsip ng red wine sa hawak-hawak nyang wine glasses. She keeps on recalling the events that happened at the museum earlier and remembering it just makes her face look more annoyed.Silent Thief...Naalala nya ang sinabi nitong muli itong babalik para kunin ang painting bago tumalon sa bintana at tumakas. It's as if giving her a warning that she needs to be ready because he's going to visit her anytime.Gabriella's grip on

Ryce opens the gate, walang tao.Sinara nya ulit ang gate at papasok na sana sa bahay nang muling tumunog ang doorbell.He opens the gate once again and his forehead wrinkled when there's none. He frowned. Is someone pranking him?A few seconds later, he felt something hit his head. When he check what's it, he saw a transparent umbrella."I'm here,"Looking down, he blink twice when he saw a kid.Meron itong suot na bagpack at hawak na payong sa isang kamay. Ito ang ginamit nitong pamalo sakanya at ang ginamit nito pamindot sa doorbell dahil hindi iyon abot ng bata."Sino ka?" Ryce asked the kid with a curious look.He doesn't expect any visitor today. At mas lalong hindi nya inaasahan na meron sakanyang bibisitang bata."Is ate Gabriella inside?"Imbes na sagutin nito ang tanong nya ay nagtanong rin ito. 'So si Gabriella pala ang pakay nito dito.'"Yeah, my wife is inside. Pero anong kailangan mo sakanya? Kaano-ano ka ba nya?"Wala naman siguro itong tinatagong anak mula sakaniya 'd

Bandang alas otso y medya, dumating si Quel sa hospital. Hindi daw kasi sumasagot si Gabriella sa mga tawag nya kagabi kaya hindi sya maayos na nakatulog dahil sa sobrang pag-alala sa kaibigan.He called her again this morning, and finally, Gabriella answered and explained to him over the phone what happened and how her target got arrested by the police.She mentioned Jenna's name and told Quel that the woman got shot last night. Nang magtanong kung saang hospital ito dinala ay hindi ito nagdalawang isip na pumunta para bisitahin at kamustahin ang dating kaklase. He even bought flowers for her.Gabriella noticed Jenna's cheeks turning red dahil tanda nyang meron itong gusto kay Quel noon. But Quel was too blind to notice it dahil si Jewel lang ang laging nasa isip nito."I thought you didn't come to the reunion dahil ayaw mo akong makita.""That's not true... I'm just really busy with my work. At saka, ba't mo naman naisip na ayaw kitang makita kaya hindi ako pumunta? Masyado kang mag

Pagkarating sa hospital, agad na inoperahan si Jenna sa operating room, at sa kabutihang palad ay naging maayos naman ito.Panay ang pagpapasalamat ni Gabriella sa doktor na umopera sa kaibigan. When she heard the doctor said that her friend is safe, tila nabunutan ng tinik ang dibdib nya.Nilipat si Jenna sa isang kwarto para maayos na makapagpahinga. Dahil wala na itong pamilya at nag-iisa nalang ito ay naisipan ni Gabriella na huwag umalis doon hanggat sa hindi pa ito gumigising.Pagkasilip kay Jenna sa kwarto at nakita itong payapang natutulog ay naisipan nyang umupo sa mahabang upuan sa labas.Her phone rung, her husband is calling. Sinagot nya ang tawag at kinuwento dito ang nangyari kay Jenna. But she didn't tell him all the details katulad na nakita nya itong mabaril sa mismong harapan nya. Before the end of the call, Ryce told her to wait for him dahil pupunta sya sa hospital para dal'han sya ng damit pamalit.As she waits for her husband to arrive, she stares at the ceiling
