“Is this all Miguel Marco's mind can take? I'm greatly disappointed in him. I expect him to be better at mind games, but it seemed to that I am expecting too much from him,” wika ni Axel sa kanyang isipan na may labis na pagkadismaya sa ipinapakita ni Miguel sa kanya.
Huminga nang malalim si Miguel para muling ikumpas ang kanyang sarili at kolektahin ang lahat na tanong na kailangan niyang itanong.
“Mr. Montegrande, I understand that my apology will be insufficient to compensate for the loss you've suffered as a result of this botched transaction. However, allow me to reestablish my reputation as a trustworthy business partner,” wika ni Miguel.
“I came to you to form a partnership because I had heard you were good at this type of business, so I put my trust in you, but look what happened. Mr. Marco, this is extremely d

KAKALABAS lang ni Ruru sa banyo mula sa kanyang paliligo at balak na magsimulang basahin ang mga impormasyong inayos niya kani-kanina nang biglang mag-ring ang kanyang cellphone.Napangiti siya nang makita niya ang pangalan ni Ysabella ang lumitaw sa screen ng kanyang cellphone. Agad niya itong sinagot na hindi nabubura ang ngiti sa kanyang labi.“Bella, what’s up?” tanong niya rito.“Tell me the truth, Ruru. Do you really have no idea who gave you the information about Marquez?” mabilis na tanong nito na siya niyang ikinagulat.Ngunit mabilis niyang ikinumpas ang kanyang sarili para sagutin ang tanong ng dalaga sa kanya.“I have absolutely no idea who that person is, Bella,” sagot niya. “Why? Is there something that matters?” Dagdag niyang tanong.“Are you sure? You really don’t have any idea who gave you that information?” paninigurong tanong muli ni

NAGHAHANDA na pauwi si Axel nang biglang nag-ring ang cellphone niya kung kaya agad niyang tinignan kung sino ito at bigla siyang napataas ng kilay nang makita niyang si Ruru ang tumatawag sa kanya.“Hey, what made you call me?” bungad na tanong ni Axel.“Can we talk?”Napakunot ng noo si Axel. “We’re already talking, Ruru,” saad niya.“I mean in person,” pagkaklaro ni Ruru.Napataas ng kilay si Axel. “Why? Is there the matter?” tanong niya na bahagyang nagtataka sa biglaang pag-aya ni Ruru sa kanya na makipag-usap.“I’ll meet you at the usual place.”Matapos noon ay binaba na ni Ruru ang tawag dahilan para gumuhit ang pagkagulat sa mukha ni Axel nang sandaling iyon at napatingin sa kanyang cellphone.“What the hell is the matter with his attitude?” kunot-noong tanong ni Axel sa kanyang sarili.Nguni

GABI na ng nakauwi si Axel sa bahay at napansin niyang bukas ang mga ilaw kung kaya napangiti ito dahil alam niyang naroon si Ysabella at hindi umalis para makipagkita kay Ruru. Dumiretso ang binata papunta sa kanilang k’warto at nang sandaling buksan niya ang pinto ng kanilang k’warto ay nakita niya ang kanyang asawa na nakalambitin ang ulo sad ulo ng kanilang kama na animo’y wala sa sarili nito.“What are you doing?” kunot-noong tanong ni Axel sa kanyang asawa.Ngunit imbes na sagutin siya nito ay iniraapan lang siya ni Ysabella ng tingin.“Don't talk to me. I have a lot of things to think about on my own,” pagsusupladang tugon ni Ysabella at nagpatuloy sa kanyang pag-iisip.Napansin ni Axel ang pagkairita ng kanyang asawa na siyang dahilan para kumunot ang noo nito. Hindi alam ng binata kung dapat ba siyang matawa o ipagsawalang bahala na lamang ang pagsusuplada ni Ysabella. Ngunit habang pinagmamasdan niya ito

“I HATE YOU!” mariing saad ni Ysabella sabay talikod kay Axel at binalot ang kanyang sarili ng kumot. Hindi nagsalita si Axel at napabuntong-hininga na lamang habang pinagmamasdan ang kanyang asawa na nakatalikod sa kanya at galit na galit. Humiga siya nang tagilid at itinukod niya ang kanyang siko sa higaan saka niya ipinatong ang kanyang ulo sa kanyang kamay. “It seems to that your body does not fully understand everything that has caused you to continue to despise me, do you?” saad ni Axel habang nakatingin sa kanyang asawang nakatalikod. “My body has nothing to understand about what you're saying because there is nothing to understand in the first place!” mariing saad ni Ysabella na bakas pa rin ang galit sa tono ng pananalita nito. “Do you really believe you haven't forgotten anything, Ysabella?” makahulugang tanong ni Axel. “If there is something I should remember, I can remember it no matter how long it has passed. And I have no recolle

NAGDAAN ang mga araw na naging abala sina Ysabella at Ruru sa paghahanda ng mga ebidensiya para gagawing hearing para sa kaso ni Jacque. Kahit na caught red handed ito ay hindi sila maaaring maging kampante, kailangan nilang maging tiyak na makukulong ito sa kasalanang ginawa nito. “Are you nervous?” tanong ni Ruru kay Ysabella bago sila pumasok ng courtroom. Huminga nang malalim si Ysabella bago tumingin kay Ruru. “Not anymore,” nakangiting tugon ni Ysabella. Ngumiti bilang tugon si Ruru sa ngiting ibinigay sa kanya ni Ysabella. “Let’s go,” aya ng binata. Tumango si Ysabella at sabay nilang tinulak ang pinto ng courtroom saka sabay na pumasok. Naglakad sila na punong-puno nang kumpyansa at tila walang kinatatakutan. Madali namang natanaw ni Ysabella si Jacque na buo rin ang kumpyansa na hindi ito matatalo sa kasong kakaharapin ngayon. Nakita niya kung paano siya nito ngisihan na animo’y nasa kamay na nito ang tagumpay at dahil hindi p

“YOUR HONOR and ladies and gentlemen of the jury: the defendant has been charged with the crime of illegal trading under Republic Act No. 5455, copyright infringement, and theft of trades and secrets under Republic Act No. 8293 “Copyright Law”, Republic No. 8792 “Electronic Commerce Act of 2000”, estafa by means of deceit under Article 315 (2)(a) of the Revised Penal Code, and tariff evasion under Republic Act No. 9135. At midnight of March 14th, the defendant was caught having a transaction of illegal items that came from Papua New Guinea with Mr. Fulong at Manila Port, Pier 12. The defendant was arrested in an entrapment operation at the tip of Mr. Francisco. The presence of the defendant at the crime scene will prove that he is guilty as charged,” saad ng prosecutor.Matapos na magsalita ni Prosecutor Del Mundo ay tumayo naman ang lawyer ni Jacque—si Allan Cabalquinto at sinabi ang kanyang opening statement.&ldqu

SA KABILANG banda habang abala ang lahat sa loob ng korte ay nakangisi at nawiwiling namang pinapanood sila ni Axel. Lahat na nangyayari ay umayon sa kanyang mga plano.“Kung gano’n, Mr. Fulong. Sinasabi mo ba na matagal niyo nang ginagawa ang ganitong transaksyon ng nasasakdal, tama ba?”“Opo.”“Objection, Your Honor! Counsel is leading the witness!”“Overruled.”“But—”“Let the counsel proceed.”“This is epic!” natatawang saad ni Axel na wiling-wili sa mukha ni Jacque na halos hindi maipinta at animo’y sasabog na sa galit habang sinisiwalat ni Mando ang katotohanan sa illegal nitong mga transaksyon.Habang nakatuon ang pansin ni Axel sa kanyang laptop ay patuloy pa rin ito sa pagtawa na halos hindi niya namalayan na may taong dumating sa kanyang opisina.

“YOUR HONOR, and ladies and gentlemen of the jury, you have heard some nonsensical denials, ostensibly under oath. Consider, instead, the obviously more credible testimony of Amando Fulong and Rushian Rupert Francisco, witnesses—we have established beyond a reasonable doubt the following facts: 1) that the defendant did intentionally talk to the stevedore—Amando Fulong—on the evening of March 14th, 2) that the cargo ship arrived with an illicit product from Papua New Guinea, and 3) that the defendant was the owner of illegal products. Jacque was running out of items to sell to his customers, so he is accused of importing a large number of counterfeit goods from Papua New Guinea.”“The prosecution alleges that Jacque used the alias Jason Manson to purchase items from a supplier in Papua New Guinea in order to conceal his identity. Lemuel Vasquez, the prosecution's investigator, claims that Jacque is a fencer who would buy from a supplier kno

NAGKAGULO ang mga tao nang makita ang bombang nakakabit sa katawan ni Allan. “Diyos ko po!” Nagsisihiyawan ang mga tao sa loob ng courtroom at hindi makamayaw at nagtulukan palabas ngunit bigo ang mga ito nang hindi nila magawang buksan ang pinto. Naka-lock ang pinto sa labas at ang tanging paraan lang na makalabas ay buksan ito ng taong nasa labas. “Open the door, you, asshole!” sigaw ng isang lalaki. “Kung gusto mo magpakamatay, ‘wag mo kaming idamay!” wika ng isang ginang. “No! Everyone will die in this place! If this is the only way to end it, everyone should die together with me!” mariing saad ni Allan. *** NAPABALIKWAS si Axel sa kanyang pagkakaupo nang makita niya sa monitor ang bombang nakakabit sa katawan ni Allan habang nagwawala sa loob ng courtroom. “Fuck!” malutong nitong mura.

“The defendant admits and deeply regrets what he did. But I’d like you to understand that there were mitigating circumstances,” makabagbag damdaming saad ni Allan.“Please elaborate, Counsel,” saad ni Judge Lopez.“The defendant was a sensitive, lonely child his entire life. Isn’t it true that all children are supposed to be raised with their parents’ love?”“Of course. How could it be any other way?”“Exactly!” mariing saad ni Allan at humarap sa mga manunuod na naroon. “Unfortunately, the defendant was forced to give up his parents for the sake of society. His father, a public official, and her mother, a pillar of the economy, both devoted their lives to this country and were unable to be there for him.” At muli itong humarap sa judge.“That must have been difficult,” tumatangong saad ni Judge Lopez.“Axel is correct, so this is how they will end the show,” wika ni Ysabella na masinsing nakatingin sa direksyon nina Luigi.“Your Honor,” tawag ni Prosecutor Gerona sa atensyon ng judge

NAGISING si Ysabella dahil sa alarm ng kanyang cellphone kung kaya mabilis siyang napabangon sa kanyang pagkakahiga lalo na at ito ang araw kung kalian muling lilitisin si Luigi. Inunat niya ang kanyang dalawang braso para magising lalo ang kanyang diwa ngunit mangilang segundo lang lumipas ay bigla siyang nakaramdam nang pangangasim sa kanyang sikmura dahilan para mapatayo sa kanyang pagkakaupo at mapatakbo sa banyo para sumuka. Sunod-sunod ang kanyang naging pagsuka na hindi niya malaman kung sa anong dahilan.Narinig naman ni Axel ang pagsusuka ni Ysabella nang sandaling makapasok ito sa kanilang k’warto dahilan para mabilis ito mapatakbo sa banyo para tignan ang kanyang asawa.“Ysabella, are you okay? What happened?” sunod-sunod na tanong ni Axel sa kanyang asawa na may labis na pag-aalala habang hinihimas ang likod nito para pagaanin ang nararamdaman nito.Umiling si Ysabella habang hinahabol ang kanyang paghinga. “I have no idea what actually happened. I came out feeling sick,”

NANG GABING iyon ay sabay-sabay na naghapunan sina Axel at ang mga magulang ni Ysabella. Naging maayos naman ang lahat kahit na walang sandaling hindi naalis ang mga tingin nito sa kanya.“Thank you for the food, Hijo,” pasasalamat ni Rosetta matapos na punasan nito ang kanyang bibig. “I had no idea you were such a talented cook.” Dagdag nito.“I’m glad that you like it, Tita,” nakangiting tugon ni Axel.“It’s too bad our daughter doesn’t know how to cook,” saad ni Rosetta na bahagyang nahihiya.“Ma—”Hindi nagawang maituloy ni Ysabella ang kanyang sasabihin nang magsalita si Axel.“Tita, don’t say anything like that. Ysabella is also a fantastic cook,” nakangiting pagdedepensa ni Axel sa kanyang asawa. “She even prepared my favorite foods on my birthday.” Dagdag nito na may labis na pagmamalaki.Nagulat naman si Rosetta sa kanyang narinig. “Really?” hindi makapaniwala nitong saad.“Yes, Tita,” paninigurong tugon ni Axel. “And, as her husband, I really enjoy her cooking.”“Stop it, Ax

LUMIPAS ang oras sa bahay ng mga Marco na balot ng paghahanda at tensyon. “Do you really have to do that, Miguel?” tanong ni Irina na bahagyang hindi mapalagay dahil sa iniisip na plano ng kanyang anak. “If this problem can be resolved, we should eliminate everything that draws attention to it,” desididong saad ni Miguel habang nakatingin sa labas ng kanyang bintana at pinagmamasdan ang bilog na buwan. “Then there will be no more problems.” *** SA BAHAY ng mga Santibañez, “Sa ulo ng mga balita, ang kilalang anak ni Senator Miguel Marco na si Luigi Marco ay muling kinasuhan ni Ysabella Santibañez sa kasong cyber-libel dahil sa eskandalong kumalat tungkol sa dalaga noong ika-labing-dalawa ng Pebrero. Ayon sa dalaga ay ang anak ng senador ang siyang nasa likod ng pagpapakalat ng malaswang mga video nito sa internet. At sa isinagawang pagdidinig ngayong araw ay napag-alaman na hindi lamang paninira ang ginawa ng binata dahilan para magbigay ng desisyon si Judge Lopez na hindi cyber-li

“WHAT kind of game is this shit playing right now?” malutong na tanong ni Luigi na may kasamang mura. Napatingin ang prosecutor kay Luigi sabay ngisi. “You little—” Hindi natuloy ni Luigi ang kanyang sasabihin sa labis na pagkainis at pagkasiphayo. Nahagip ng tingin ng binata ang mga tingin ni Ysabella habang ito’y napapailing. Nakipagtitigan siya sa dalaga na ngayon ay nakangisi na rin sa kanya. “It’s almost as if those accusations have been proven,” saad ni Prosecutor Gerona. “ Ilang saglit ang lumipas at walang salitang lumabas sa panig ni Luigi at nabalot nang maliliit na bulong-bulungan ang korte. “Then, I have nothing to say, Your Honor,” saad ng prosecutor at bumalik sa kanyang pagkakaupo. Nagpatuloy ang mga bulong-bulungan ng mga taong naroon. “Petitioner, do you have anything to say?” tanong ni Judge Lopez. Tumayo si Ruru at tumingin sa mga taong naroon. “As the prosecution, prove the alleged accusations against the defendant—” at tinuro si Luigi— “do you believe he’

MATAPOS humingi nang despensa ni Luigi ay ibinaling nito ang tingin kay Judge Lopez at saka umupo. Habang si Ysabella naman ay hindi mawala ang labis na pagkasiphayo na kitang-kita sa mukha nito nang sandaling iyon.“This concludes the trial for today,” saad ni Allan.Huminga nang malalim si Prosecutor Gerona, hindi ito makakapayag na matapos ang kasong iyon nang ganito na lang. Tumayo ito sa kanyang pagkakaupo at tumingin kay Judge Lopez.“Your Honor.”Ibinaling ni Judge Lopez ang tingin nito kay Prosecutor Gerona. “Yes,” tugon nito.“What do you call it when someone did the same thing over and over again?” tanong ng prosecutor na ibinaling ang kanyang tingin kay Allan.“Please be precise, Ms. Gerona,” saad ng judge.“Didn’t you hear about cases where the same crime is committed again and again?” tanong ng prosecutor kay Allan.“Are you referring to repeat offenders, by any chance?” patanong na sagot ni Allan.“If these were mere accusations without evidence, the defendant would not

MATAPOS ang labing limang minutong pahinga ay nag-resume na muli ang hearing.“Your Honor, may I ask a question?” tanong ni Prosecutor Gerona kay Judge Lopez na katabi nito.“Go ahead,” maikling tugon nito.“Is it correct that Mr. Marco has never been involved in a situation like this before?” tanong ni Prosecutor Gerona.“Yes, it is.”“It appears to be quite a coincidence. How could such a perfect timing occur as soon as Mr. Marco is defeated in his sexual assault against Lara Verdera and these unexpected events occur?”“I’m sorry, Ms. Gerona, but the sexual assault that occurred in California has nothing to do with this case, and we believe it is purely coincidental,” pagdedepensang saad ni Allan.“Despite the fact that Mr. Marco’s ex-girlfriend, Lara Verdera, testified that this is not the first time he defamed someone due to his bad temper and being embarrassed in front of many people?” buwelta ni Prosecutor Gerona.“It is nothing more than defamation of character. Ms. Verdera was

“LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, this case involves Ysabella Santibañez, the plaintiff, against Luigi Marco, the defendant, for cyber-libel. The cyber-libel is said to be the result of a video of the plaintiff's sexual act that was uploaded to social media sites,” panimulang saad ni Judge Lopez nang sandaling makaupo ito. “Petitioner, please go ahead.” Tumayo si Ruru sa kanyang pagkakaupo at tumayo sa gitna at pinagmasdan ang mga taong naroon sa loob ng korte. “Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Rushian Rupert Francisco. I'm here to represent the petitioner in this case, Ysabella Santibañez,” pagpapakilalang simula ni Ruru. “On February 18, 2022, a libel suit by Ysabella Santibañez was filed against a libeler, Luigi Marco. The suit came as a result of Luigi’s libelous and vitriolic personal Internet attacks against the plaintiff, Ms. Santibañez, the lawyer who represented the defendant’s ex-girlfriend. After getting defeated in the sexual assault case against Lara Verdera, Luigi defamed Ms. San
