“B-Battle? What battle?” Ferran stared at Sanchez, feeling uneasy before he reacted a bit exaggerated just to take Sanchez’s attention away from that thought.“You’re awake! I thought you would never wake up. Wait for a moment, I will call the doctor to check your condition.” Ferran immediately stood up and left Sanchez to call the doctor.Sanchez is in good condition based on what the doctor said. He just had to stay for another day in the hospital for a blood transfusion. After that, he can go home and rest to quickly recover.“I’m sorry. I still insisted on what I wanted even though you stopped me.” Ferran sincerely apologized, feeling guilty of his stubbornness.“Don’t be sorry. I’m already glad that neither of us died.” Sanchez said and then asked something. “When I woke up, I heard you say some things? What is the battle you are referring to?” Ferran almost face-palmed when Sanchez asked about it. He thought Sanchez forgot what he said earlier but he didn’t.“Battle? Huh?” Fer
‘Hm... So she’s a professor.’ Ferran said in his mind while looking at the label of the canned goods in his hand then suddenly, he realized something.The guy’s voice! It seemed to be familiar. Senior Police Officer II Danryll De Vega! His new partner at present time.He looked at the last place where the two were talking earlier but they were no longer there. He tried to find them but he couldn’t so he just released a heavy sigh and quickly finished shopping for food.He was about to go out when he noticed the old woman who seemed to be having a hard time carrying the two boxes of groceries.“Excuse me. May I help you?” He asked.“Sure. Sure. Thank you.” The old woman gave him the two heavy boxes then they came out of the supermarket. The old lady pointed to the car where the groceries needed to be placed.When they got close to the car, the old woman’s grandson arrived just in time.“Granny, didn’t I tell you to just wait---oh Ferran,” Beltran said. “Thank you for helping my Granny.
When Ferran reached his house, he went straight to his room to change clothes. “Uncle! Uncle!” Blair shouted as she entered the room without permission. “Did you heard about the rape victim in the seashore?” She seems out of breath.“I just got from there.”“Oh. That’s so horrible. Did you have any leads on who might be the culprit?”“Blair,” He looked at his niece while buttoning his polo shirt. “Don’t involve yourself. It’s too early for you to be in this kind of mess.”“But I want to learn. You know that I easily get curious.” She looked around and saw something in her uncle’s room.“But—hey.” Ferran noticed that Blair was looking at his plans for the upcoming apocalypse in the future.“What are these, uncle? Are you… Are you working on something big?” She asked while holding the photos and reading the notes on the board. “2022? Apocalypse… What?”“I need to go. You might as well leave and go home.” He slightly pushed Blair outside his room.“Uncle, you’re a workaholic but not to
Gentle waves of the sea, cold wind that blew through his face, and the smell of the sea salt. Ferran awoke from a deep sleep and looked around the area. He was sitting in his pickup car’s driver seat, located at the end of the pier and facing the calm sea. He remembered what had happened to him inside the bar.“A dream?” He asked himself. “But what am I doing here?”He got out of his car and he felt the pain all over his body then he realized that it’s not a dream! He faced the side mirror of his car and saw his swollen wounds which he gained by beating the man with a tribal tattoo.The big question is, how did he get to that place? He does not remember that he drove there and he also doesn’t have an idea that he needed anything in that place.After a moment of thinking, the surroundings are getting brighter ‘coz the sun was starting to rise. Ferran chose to stay to watch the sunrise that he rarely does because he was too busy at work.When the sun was high, something significant ent
June 24, 20209:58 PMIt’s been two hours since Ferran waited outside the Tolentino Mansion. He always checks the time in his wristwatch then looks at the mansion’s gate. He was gripping the steering wheel of Sanchez’s car which he borrowed because his pickup needs a repair. Compared to his car, Sanchez’s car is brand new, and he remembered Sanchez’s words before he allowed him to use his new car. It’s kind of funny though.***“If you’re not my friend, I will not really lend my car to you.” Sanchez was hesitant to lend his car to Ferran because he knew that his partner is sometimes a reckless driver. At the end, he handed him the car key, as if he had no choice.“If my car isn’t damaged, I will not borrow your car.”“Why don’t you buy a new one?”“Maybe next time.”“Tss. You have almost nothing to spend on your salary.”Ferran didn’t say anything else. Even he doesn’t know why the real Ferran didn’t replace his car with a new one. He guessed that maybe because there’s a memory in th
Ferran gave his statement to the police in charge. He was listening to the police question when he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.“Excuse me.” He said as he waved his phone. The police nodded and left him for some privacy.“S-Simeon. I need your help! My sister is missing. I can’t find her! Please, help me.” Thalia was crying on the phone.“What? Maybe she’s just—”“No. No. I tried calling her but she’s not answering. She usually does answer my calls but today’s different. What if… what if something bad happens to her?” She sobbed.Calm down, Thalia. Calm down. We will find her. I’m just taking care of something important. We will find her. Don’t worry.” He said that made Thalia calmer than earlier.“Okay. Okay. I’ll wait for you.” Thalia said before ending the call. Ferran saw a familiar police taking the culprits inside the police mobile.“SPO2 De Vega!” He called the police and approached him. The police looked at him with confusion.‘So he’s from San Carlos before he worked
On their way to the police station, Ferran discussed what the beggar said and he also talked about the incident inside the comfort room, where he encountered the man with a tribal tattoo that might be connected to this case.“My hunch was right!” Ferran massages the bridge of his nose. “There's something big behind that man with a tribal tattoo.”“We shouldn’t conclude without strong evidence.” Sanchez said while driving the police car.“What if the victim witnessed something that caused his death?”“If what you’re saying was right,” Sanchez paused. “Then we will be having a hard time catching the murderer.”“Yeah. He is somewhat hard to catch, especially that there’s something big backing him up.” Ferran stated as if he was so sure what he was saying.“How sure are you?”Even if Ferran and Sanchez investigating the murder case, they also handle several cases at the same time. The crime that is happening now in San Lorenzo is so rampant and Ferran has a strong feeling that almost ever
“Ahh!” The lady screamed.She caught everyone’s attention but she doesn’t care. The lady kicked Dr. De Vega made the doctor sit on the floor. Good thing, Timotheus intervened and stopped the lady from doing a bad thing.“Let me go! Let me go! She needs to die! I want her to die!”Timotheus took the syringe in the lady’s hand and gripped her hands then he pushed her to the nearest wall.“What’s happening here!?” Ferran asked who just arrived at the hospital. When he saw Dr. De Vega sitting on the floor, he immediately approached and helped her to stand up. Some nurses took the doctor to check her condition. Thankfully, nothing serious injury happened to her, just bumped the back of her head against the wall.“This lady tried to inject something to that woman on the bed.” Timotheus explained.“What!? But,” Ferran was confused. “But she’s... She’s your sister. She’s your sister Nathalie.”“I don’t care! I don’t care! I want to kill her! I want to kill her!” She was furious and really wan
