Bab 8: Chapter 8: The Alliance
I CLOSED my eyes when the blinding rays of the sun hit my eyes. The whispers of the cold yet warm wind, blows my hair as I looked at the sun almost kissing the sea.
I don't know where I am or how did I get there but there's only one thing for sure, I've been in this kind of place. It seems that I am recalling my memories from my past that I will never forget.
I sighed heavily. My legs didn't want to move a bit. They say that they want to stay for a little longer and wait for someone to return.
"Jessie! Jessie!"
A call coming from behind reached my ears. I turned to her and I saw Tiffany running towards me, smiling like there is no end into it.
"Tiffany? What's the problem?" I asked.
"Guess what, beshy?!" Her voice creamed with excitement and happiness in all of her life.
"What?" I asked with boredom. As if I was interested in hearing her stories.
"I know that you didn't hear the news but he's coming back!"
Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya. Napatapik ng noo si Tiffany at huminga nang malalim na para bang nagtitimpi sa naging asal ko.
"Your father is coming back. I heard those news from the working maid here as I chat with them." She said that happily.
Napawi ang ngiti niya nang mapansin ang pagiging malungkutin ko.
"Why are you sad?" She asked.
Napayuko na lang ako at pinaglalaruan ang sand castle na nagawa namin kanina.
"Even if he was here, it feels like he was not yet home. Cold and full of revenge. His eyes screams danger and I don't think that he will see me as his son. He saw me as puppet who are going to follow his orders."
Puno ng pakikipagsimpatya ang mga mata ni Tiffany then she hugged me tightly as I feel the warmth on her hug.
"Don't worry, everything will fall back into place so better not to be upset or sad about it, okay? It's okay to have a father than nothing." She assured me.
I smiled at her. "Tiffany, can you promise me something?"
"What is it?"
"Please promise me not to leave me alone. Okay?"
"Sure! Why would I leave you? You are like a sister to me and whatever may happens, I will still your one and only bestfriend." Masayang sabi niya.
"Baka balak niyo akong isali diyan?" A feminine voice coming from behind piqued our attention.
Nakahalukipkip siya ngunit salubong ang kilay. Nakasimangot itong nakatingin sa amin.
Mabilis na tumayo si Tiffany. Hindi makapaniwala sa nakikita niya sa kanyang harapan. Tumakbo siya patungo sa babae at niyakap ng mahigpit.
"Sunny! Bumalik ka!" It was almost a cry.
Napalitan ng ngiti ang simangot nito. Niyakap niya pabalik ang babae tsaka hinimas ang buhok nito. Napunta sa akin ang mga mata nito at ngumiti.
"Thanks, Jessica. For being always by my sister's side." She uttered and then in a second bigla na lang sila nawala sa paningin ko.
I suddenly found myself crying in the darkness. Blood and corpse surrounds me and I smelled the gun powder spread through the air. I feel confused about anything. Why I am here? Why I am crying?
"Jessica.. Help me..."
I heard a voice coming from somewhere. I can't determine where it is but it was familiar to me. That voice, no voices, they are pleading for me to help them.
Again. Again. Again.
"Jessica? Jessica!"
Humihingal akong napabalikwas mula sa pagkakahiga. I am breathing so hard and I can feel the wetness of my swelling eyes. Pinahid ko ang basa sa aking pisngi at tinignan iyon. I am crying because of that dream?
Napalingon ako sa gilid ko. Bumungad sa akin ang nag-aalalang mukha nina Yuri at Taeyeon. Napangiti si Yuri nang makita niyang gising ako.
"Good grief. You are alive. You don't know how you making us feel worried." She said.
Umikot ang tingin ko sa buong paligid. I noticed that I am in an unfamiliar place which is surrounded by white.
"Where am I? Why I am here?" Hindi ko napigilang itanong.
"Obviously, you are in a hospital. We take you here because I found you lying in the floor of your room. We haven't heard your thanks yet so don't complain." Taeyeon replied while her arms crossed in her chest.
"Taeyeon..." Suway ni Yuri sa kanya ngunit ito ay sumimangot na lamang at nag-iwas ng tingin.
Hindi ko pinansin ang sinabi ng babae bagkus ay inalala ang huli kong natandaan. I was doing my hunch in my room and then I found something in the second victim's phone.
"Where's the phone?" Biglang tanong ko.
They looked at me in confusion. It looks like they didn't have an idea on what I am talking about.
"I'm sorry but we didn't found any phones lying beside you, Jessie." Yuri.
"Crap." I cursed at tuluyan ng bumangon mula sa pagkakahiga.
Pinigilan ako ni Yuri sa pag-alis. "Where are you going?"
Hinarap ko siya at binawi ang kamay ko sa kanya.
"Liar.." Those words suddenly slipped out of my mouth.
Napansin ko ang bahagyang paggalaw ni Taeyeon dahil sa sinabi ko. Kitang-kita ko rin na natigilan si Yuri pagkuwan ay kumunot ang noo nito.
"Anong ibig mong sabihin?" Kunwaring walang alam na tanong niya.
Umirap ako at napatingin sa paligid. Nang makita kong walang tao ay tsaka muli akong nagsalita. "Oh come on! Don't act like you didn't know anything. Don't be stupid this time. I know that you know what is the secret of this school!"
"Wait? What?" Namuo ang mga luha sa gilid ng kanyang mga mata.
"What?" Tumawa ako ng pilit. "I shall give you a round of applause for being the best actress this time. I trusted you a little bit but you broke that single trust."
"Ano bang pinagsasabi m-"
"You know that killing is legal in this school, right? It is not just an ordinary gangster school but also this school is out of this world. A single life is just nothing to all of you that's why you didn't react when Tiffany died!" Tumaas ng bahagya ang boses ko sa gigil.
Nagitla ito sa nadinig. Bumagsak ang mga luha nito sa kanyang pisngi. Humikbi ito at umiling ng paulit-ulit.
"Hindi naman sa ganoon, Jessica. Tiffany's life is important to us-"
"But why you didn't tell me the truth?! Why you keep on bluffing me that this school is just a school for gangsters and no killings attached?! You making me just like some sort of stupid girl who keeps on believing on your lies. All of your lies!"
"I'm sorry." She said while crying and I did nothing but to stare at her in a next minutes while Taeyeon keeps on calming her.
Hindi ako galit sa mga kasinungalingan niya, pangalawa lang iyon. Mas galit ako sa hindi nila pangingialam sa mga patayang naganap sa buong campus. How did I know all of this shit? It's because of the text message that the victim's received a which I read it accidentally.
And it made me realized that all of the killings was nothing to them. It made realized that they didn't value someone's life. To be a killer or get killed, that was the real objective of this school not that golden law. That's explains why there are lots of killings happening in this area and why the police cannot figure out what is really happening in this school.
The gangster thing is just the campus mask. All of what I heard or what I saw was a lie and I was annoyed at myself for being stupid to realize that.
What is the real purpose behind this merciless and inappropriate law? That question keeps rolling into my mind.
"I was about to tell you the truth but my instinct to protect you from any harm is the reason why we hide it from you." She explained and then looked down. After all, I can sense that she was guilty on what happened.
"To protect me? From what?" I managed to listen to her even though she lied to me.
Si Taeyeon na ang sumagot sa mahinang boses. "Once you learned their dirty law, there's a possibility that you may be one of us, you will become their victim."
I was about going to speak when she interrupted me. "It's better to act stupid than to learn more so shut your mouth up then go with the flow."
******
NANATILI akong tulala habang mag-isa akong naglalakad sa pasilyo ng paaralang ito. Hindi mapakali ang aking isipan sa kakaisip tungkol sa katotohanan sa likod ng sinabi ni Taeyeon.
Victims? What she was going to imply?
After that dramatic confrontation, I mean boring confrontation, they leave me alone and confused in that room so that I can adapt the truth that I've heard. And this time, I know that they really saying the truth and I felt no doubts about it.
But after all what I've learned, my goal didn't change. I still seeking for justice and the truth lies above. I will going to reveal who is 'Jack the Ripper'. I don't care if I will become their victim, para saan pa ang pag-aaksaya ko ng panahon kung mauuwi lang pala iyon sa wala? It's not that I am afraid of them or not, to tell you the truth, sanay na ako sa mga ganitong sitwasyon.
My feet stopped on walking when I heard those irritating noises coming from every girl in this campus. It seems like they were out of breathe or anything. I rolled my eyes then I was about to keep going when someone held my wrists.
"Hey! What-"
Naputol ang pagsasalita ko nang hilahin niya ako. Hindi ko alam kung saan kami pupunta ng lokong ito kaya patuloy ako sa pagpupumiglas dahil nakakakuha na kami ng atensiyon.
"Hey! Saan mo ba ako dadalhin?! Bitiwan mo nga ako!" I shouted at him and tried to loosen his grip but I failed.
"We are going to somewhere, baby." He glanced at me and winked. "So better braced yourselves on what you will see."
"What if I don't?" Huminto ako sa paglalakad kaya napahinto siya.
He chuckled on what I said. "So stubborn as ever."
"Saan mo nga ako dadalhin? You, jerk!" Iritado kong sabi.
Inalis niya ang pagkakahawak sa wrist ko at hinawakan ang kamay ko. He entertwined it with his hand. I raised my eyebrow and then I caught him looking at me intently.
Seriously? Anong plano ng mokong na ito?
"Don't ask more questions, okay? Just saved it later. And trust me, I will not doing anything that may harm you, my princess."
Hindi na ako nagbalak na magsalita kahit na sa loob ko ay marami akong gustong itanong sa kanya. Buong araw ko siyang hindi nakita kahit na sa klase ko. I wonder where is he up to? I didn't see him in the his dorm nor his whole gang. Mas lalo tuloy akong nacucurious sa pagkatao niya.
Sino ka ba talaga, Kris Wu? Why I felt like you were hiding something? Why I am eager to learn more about you though I feel that you are not one of my suspect's list?
"I want to show you about something."
Napansin kong may kotseng nakapark sa parking lot ng school. Mamahalin ito at makintab. May mga lalaking nakasuot ng black suit at pinalilibutan ang kotseng iyon.
Sumakay kami sa mamahaling kotse. Litong-lito ako sa nangyayari. Parami nang parami ang mga tanong na dumadaloy sa isipan ko.
"Stay calm. I'll explained to you later." He said while locking his seatbelt.
Talagang dapat siyang mag-explain! Siya kaya ang kaladkarin ko ng basta-basta? Tingnan lang natin kung hindi siya magtaka.
"Where are we going?" I asked when he started the engine.
"To my mansion." He said without taking off his eyes on the road.
Hindi na ako magtataka kung may mansion sila at mamahaling kotse. Sa hitsura pa lang ng kumag ay yayamanin na. I guess that's why he is in this school because of his wealth? Or is he up to something else?
Nanatili kaming tahimik hanggang sa makarating kami sa kanyang mansyon. Bumaba na siya at pinagbuksan ako ng pinto. I uttered thanks then looked at my surroundings.
I gasped on what I saw. His mansion is bigger on what I thought. It was like an architectural design that comes from Renaissance Period and there are fountains in the middle of the garden.
Pinalibutan kami ng mga 'Men In Black' habang kami ay naglalakad papasok ng mansion. I guess these men are his bodyguards but why I am acting like something was going on? Am I really imagining things?
Pagkapasok namin sa loob ay sinalubong kami ng limang katulong. They bowed at us and greeted us in unison. Kris just nod at them as we keep on walking. Saan ba talaga kami pupunta?
"We will get there sooner."
Napalingon ako sa kanya nang magsalita siya. Ilang minuto na siyang walang imik at parang may malalim na iniisip. I wonder, what is it? But why do I care, anyway? It's not my life are depended to him.
I stopped on walking at binawi ang kamay mula sa kanya. "Why did you dragged me here?" I asked.
"We will talk about something important, about your safety."
Makahulugang sagot nito at kinuha muli ang kamay ko.
"My safety? What?! Bakit dito?" I asked again but he managed to ignore it.
Nagtataka na ako sa mga nangyayari. My safety? Don't tell me he already knew about the campus's secret? Who told him? Yuri? Taeyeon?
We reached the grand staircase of his mansion. I even saw the large painting pasted on the wall. It was him and he was with the older guy who exactly looks like him and a older women that is full of charismatic aura. I bet, it was his parents.
"Did your parents live here?" I blurted out of blue.
"Nope. They are already dead." I saw the pang of pain in his eyes. I don't know why I am feeling guilty on what I saw. My heart tells me that it was my fault even though I didn't know them a bit.
"Oh. I'm sorry." I whispered then look down but he pinched the back of my hand, leaving me to tore my eyes at him.
He smiled. "It's okay. I'm feeling better now since you are here so don't be sad about it." He assured.
Tumango na lang ako at ibinalik ang tingin sa dadaanan namin. Grandioso ang loob ng mansiyon niya. May mga mamahaling gamit at mga antigong kagamitan ang nakadisplay dito. Malawak at para akong nasa loob ng kastilyo kung tutuusin.
"We're here." Huminto kami sa isang silid. Kulay itim ang pintuan nito at pansin kong parang kakaiba ito sa lahat ng mga silid na nadaanan namin. Is it because of it's door color or the aura?
Binuksan niya ang pintuan at bumungad sa akin ang nakakabinging katahimikan sa loob. Nagulat ako nang makita kong naririto sa loob ang lima sa mga miyembro ng Dark Ravens. Pumaling ang mga ulo nila sa aming direksiyon at pansin kong kami na lang ang hinihintay nila.
"Finally, nakarating din kayo." Tao walked toward us with a smile on his face.
Huminto siya sa harapan ko at akmang kukunin ang kamay ko nang humarang si Kris sa pagitan namin.
"Back off, Tao. Don't act like you are the most handsome here." Kris said coldy.
Sinapo ni Tao ang dibdib nito ngunit may bahid na ngiti sa mga labi.
"Aww! That hurts! You are so mean, Kris."
"Boss is just stating the fact, Tao." Chen said then his eyes met mine. "Yo, Jessie. It's been a while." He greeted me then smile.
I just nodded at him at iginala ang tingin sa bawat isa sa kanila. They were all smiling at me like we were friends or something. I didn't managed to smiled at them but instead I started to ask a question.
"Why are you all here, Dark Ravens? And who the hell is your real identity, Kris Wu?" Kay Kris na ako bumaling ngayon.
A smirked appears on his face. Naglakad siya patungo sa harap ko at inilahad ang kamay para ipakilala ang kaniyang mga kasama.
"I am Kris Wu, the mafia leader of the Wu Organization. And they are my comrades or should I say they are part of my organization." He paused a bit then continue.
"I invited you here to discuss you about something, about your safety and the school's main goal."
Gulantang ako sa mga narinig ko mula sa bibig niya. Mafia? Wu Organization? The goal of our school? How did he know about this?
And what is this Wu Organization? Why is it hit my head like I was knew it for a long time?
Why?
NANATILI akong tahimik at hindi makapaniwalang nakatingin sa kanila. Wala silang reaksiyon at nanatili lang seryoso.
"What?! Why all of sudden.." Pakiramdam ko ay para na akong mababaliw ngayon. Siya ay isang mafia leader? Really?!
Pumamulsa siya at nagsalita.
"I am going to answer all of your questions but sit down first."
Naupo ako sa upuang hinila niya. Walang imik ang iba na nakatingin sa akin. I felt like I was in a intense seat. I could feel the tension rise in the air and it is my first time to see the Dark Ravens in their serious mode.
"So, where should I start?" Kris asked made me back to my senses.
His eyes met mine. "From the start. Why did you confess it to me all of sudden? What is your real intention? And about the school's dirty secret, how did you know that I already knew that?" Naging sunod-sunod ang pagtatanong ko.
"Hey. Take it easy, Jessie." Luhan said and then smiled at me. "Don't accused us like we done anything wrong about you. We are not your enemy, we are allies." He added.
"Allies?"
Sinamaan ni Kris ng tingin si Luhan. Napataas naman ang dalawang kamay nito at alanganing tumawa.
"What?! We should tell her the truth, Kris. If we don't, we will making her confused." Luhan defensed.
"Luhan is right. We shouldn't making her to not to trust us." Sumingit si Xiumin at napako ang malamig nitong tingin sa akin.
"Truth? What is it?" I asked. I looked at them with a curious face. Is there something that they've been hiding to me?
"You really want to know?" Nag-aalalang tanong sa akin ni Kris.
"Yes." I replied without any hesitation.
Tumikhim ito at muling sumeryoso ang mukha. "Then it's settled now. Sage, you can enter now." May tinawag siya mula sa labas ng kuwarto.
Bumukas ang pinto at iniluwa roon ang isang lalaking may edad na. Nanliit ang aking mga nang mapansin kong pamilyar siya sa akin.
"Meet Mr. Sage Buenavista, the campus guard and serves as our source."
Napagtanto ko na kung sino siya. He is the weird guard that I've met in my first day. So he's spying the university, huh?
"The information that we gathered are coming from him and he's been following you these past few days, Jessica."
"What?!" Nagulat ako roon.
"We are doing that so that your life will be secured. Everything that you do, nasasagap namin iyon kahit na wala kami sa tabi mo." He added.
"That's why you know that I already knew the secret of this school, huh?" Nice tactics. I didn't felt that someone is following me.
"Yeah. He is the Master Stalker in this organization and beside he is one of your bodyguards."
Kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi nito.
"Bodyguard? What do you mean?"
Tumahimik siya ng ilang sandali at bumuntong-hininga. Then our eyes met.
"You are the heir of Master Silver Jung, the mafia leader of Jung Association. Iyon ang bagay na isinekreto namin sayo na gusto mong malaman."
I frozed in my place. My head started to throb like hell and now I felt a sudden pain in my chest. I thought that he was joking but his eyes gazed at me seriously, no smiling and no joking.
"And I'm sorry if we keep this to you, Jessica. You are not fully recovered from your amnesia so if we told that to you, you have a possibility to experience over fatique."
"No. It's okay." Napasentido ako at pilit pinapatugma ang mga nalaman ko sa naging panaginip ko kagabi. So that's explains it. But who are those person that I am being with when I was in my highschool even in elementary days? Who are those person that I leave alone?
"I thought my father was just a civilian and my mother-"
"They are not your real parents, Miss Jessica." The old man butted in. "They are the one who entrusted by your father that's why when he leave this world, they adopted you."
Mas lalo akong nagulantang sa mga naging rebelasyon tungkol sa pagkatao ko. Hindi ko akalaing hindi ko palang tunay na magulang ang mga taong pinakitaan ko ng pagrerebelde.
"Why did my real father gave me to those people? And what do you mean by 'he leave this world'?"
Lumungkot ang mga mata ng matanda. "I'm sorry to say this but your father was already dead. He was murdered by someone on that night, on your sixth birthday celebration."
***
HUMINGA ako nang malalim at ibinalik ang pagsasagot sa seatwork na ibinigay sa amin ng aming professor. Siniko ako ni Junmyeon kaya napatingin ako sa kanyang nag-aalalang mukha.
"Are you okay?" He asked.
"Yeah. I've just got tired.. uh.."
Actually I don't think I am fine after what I heard. It was mind blowing and everytime I tried to recall about my father's death, my head hurt and I didn't remember that scene from my past. My mind was blank and I couldn't recalled what happened when I was six. If that happens when I was a child then anong ginagawa ni Tiffany sa panaginip kong iyon? Ang pagkakaalam ko ay sampung taon ako noong makilala ko siya bakit naroon siya sa alaala kong iyon. Did my memory alter o sadyang nagulo ang mga ito?
"Are you sure? You want to take a rest?" Junmyeon's voice made me to fall back on my senses.
"No. I'm fine." I smiled tsaka iniwas ang tingin sa kanya at muling bumalik sa pagsasagot.
I can sense that he want to ask something about me but he managed to keep it to himself. Me too, I want to ask myself. Bakit nagkaganito ang lahat? Bakit habang tumatagal ay nagiging komplikado ang buhay ko? All I want is justice for my friend but why is it turned like this? And now, it reveals that I am the daughter of the most famous mafia lord in the mafia world and I am the next leader of his organization.
Plus, my memory are wavy and undefined. I can't tell which one comes first and those dreams. Is that also a memory?
Argh. It's so frustrating. I want to punch myself for having an amnesia but that doesn't make sense. Hindi pa rin maibabalik nito ang mga alaala ko. Sage told me to wait for my memories to come back and become steady. He told me that I got this memory loss after my dad killed.
And about being a leader, Kris is the one who managed my father's organization for the mean time until my memories come back and until I fully accept my responsibility. I was amazed at him because he can managed two organizations and one more thing, the Wu family is the most trusted ally by my father and Kris is one of my knight when I was a child. Kaya pala pakiramdam ko ay bumabalik ako sa pagkabata ko noong niyakap niya ako when we are in the gym.
Wu and Jung are best buddies when it comes to business, that's what Sage told me. It's so funny that we are connected in some way, huh? Fate are really playing us then what's next? Someone was going to stole the spotlight from us and then get killed?
Pumasok bigla sa isipan ko ang tunay na pinag-usapan namin kagabi. About this campus's dirty secret, the real intention of Headmistress Delacroix, the one who made that law and the the former founder of this university.
The Dark Ravens told me that the headmaster was under the control of the Student Council. They don't have the idea on how they controlled her and they still investigating it. The Student Council wanted to seek for freedom that's why they made that law, all students are killing each other until the scents of blood lingered in their sleeves. That thing made the Student Council happy and we have to do something against it.
But then after hearing the real intention behind that law, it seems like something was missing. Something was forgotten. I felt like it just not about their happiness and I'm sure that Jack the Ripper is involved with that something.
So in order to unlocked those mysteries, we joined a secret alliance between me and Kris. I didn't involved the whole gang because my instincts keeps warning me not to trust others so easily that's why I warned Kris to keep it as our own secrets.
Kris is a trusthworthy person. He is the one who I can rely on now but if he was become a traitor, I will not hesitating to fight him.
That was the promise that we made under the witness of the bright moon. If he broke it, then he is not the one who worth my trust.
After all, my goal didn't change. I am doing this for my friend's sake and for justice. Then if I attained it, what will I do? Will I be going back to Tita Elene's apartment? Or going back to where I am really belong.
"Okay. Times up!" Miss Cantiga said. "Pass those papers forward and don't forget to write your name."
Inabot ko sa harapan ang papel ko. May sumipa sa upuan ko mula sa aking likuran kaya napatingin ako roon. At kahit hindi ko man tingnan kung sino iyon ay kilala ko na kung sino siya.
"What?!" Mataray kong tanong ko sa kanya nang makita ko ang nakakainis niyang mapang-asar na ngisi.
Ilang araw ko nang hindi nakikita ang pagngisi niyang iyan. Maybe because of his duty as a leader of two association, he should show some dangerous character in order his men to follow him.
And I would be lying if I tell you that I didn't miss his annoying smirk. And it seems that he was back on his own self.
"Please, pass it forward." His smirk never fade away.
"I will do it! You don't have to kick my chair, dummy!" I said annoyed.
Padabog kong kinuha ang kanyang papel at akmang ipapasa ko iyon sa aking harapan nang may mga kamay na kumuha nito mula sa akin.
Inis na inis ang mukha ni Junmyeon habang hawak-hawak niya ang papel at kita ko kung paano humigpit ang pagkakahawak nito sa papel na kamuntikan nang malukot.
"Ako na ang magpapasa." Aniya nang makita ang nagtatanong kong mga mata.
Napatingin ang galit niyang mga mata sa akin at kay Kris na sinamaan niya muna ng tingin bago iyon ipasa.
Rinig ko ang paghagalpak ng tawa ni Kris sa likuran at ang simpleng pagtikhim ni Sehun sa tabi ni Junmyeon.
Tumaas ang kilay ko sa nangyari at ibinaling ko ang tingin sa bawat isa sa kanila ngunit kaagad nilang iniwas ang kanilang mukha at nagkibit-balikat.
Napailing na lang ako sa nangyari. They are bunch of some crazy people and I don't see myself to be involved with them eventhough I didn't gave my full trust to the both of them, I can feel that they were here to make me secured and to be comforted when they are times that I am down.
The whole bunches of White Wolves Group and the Dark Ravens.
I may not know their real character but through the way they showed it to me, I can identify what kind of person they are. Kahit na ilang araw palang kami magkakilala ay kilala ko na agad sila ng tuluyan, same goes for Yuri and Taeyeon.
They showed me that they are really cared for me. They handle me with care like an important treasure to them that they didn't want to lose. Kahit na kakaunti ang naging pag-uusap namin ng iilan sa kanila, ramdam ko na tunay ang pakikitungo nila sa akin.
And those people didn't deserve a trash like me. I will give trouble to those people so I shouldn't let myself be attached with them or to be depend on them. I don't want them to carry the burden and bad luck that I've been holding for a long time.
I should keep myself back to the place where I should stood.
Tumayo ako sa aking kinauupuan nang magpaalam ang huling prof namin sa araw na ito.
"Sabay na tayo."
Nagulat ako nang pumunta silang tatlo sa harapan ko para sabihin iyon sa akin. Nakita ko kung paano sila magpalitan ng sama ng tingin sa isa't isa na para bang may silent war na nagaganap sa kanilang dalawa.
Ngumiwi na lang si Junmyeon at binalik ang tingin sa akin.
"Sa akin ka na sumabay, Jessica. I will make sure na ihahatid kita ng ligtas sa dorm." He said.
"No. Don't put your trust to this dog and surrender yourself to me, baby." Kris butted in that made Junmyeon to look at him angrily.
"What did you say? I am a dog?!"
"You already heard that and I don't want to repeat myself." He said it teasingly but his eyes is full of tension and rage.
"Tss. What an immature kids." Sehun hissed that made the two to looked at them.
"What did you say?!"
I shooked my head at them and leave them alone while they are fighting to each other and decided to go home alone. Kahit anong anggulo, hindi pa rin talaga magkakasundo ang dalawang magkaibang gang. I don't know kung ano ba ang issue nila sa isa't isa at wala na rin akong pakialam doon. I might be distracted myself if I put my attention to that simple issue.
Naglakad akong mag-isa sa pasilyo ng building na ito at pansin kong wala ng ibang mga estudyanteng nagkalat sa daan. Hindi ko pansin na ginabi na pala ako dahil sa paglilinis na ginawa ko kanina with the help of those three jerk.
Huminto ako sa paglalakad nang mapansin ko sa gilid ng aking mga mata na may sumusunod sa akin at kinuha ang aking phone para pasimpleng tingnan kung sino iyon.
Nang makita kong walang tao sa likuran ko ay napangisi ako tsaka muling nagpatuloy sa paglalakad na para bang walang alam sa nangyayari.
Someone's following me, I am sure of that. And even he use to hide himself from me, I still find him. Mr. Sage already taught me yesterday on what should I do if someone was following me or how would I determine if someone have been stalking me.
I wouldn't fall for this shit. And if I was being followed, I had my own technique on my sleeves.
Natigil ang mga paa ko sa paghakbang at nagkunwaring walang kamuwang-muwang habang tinatali ang ribbon ng aking suot na uniporme. In my peripheral vision, I saw the shadow walking slowly behind me and I started to count from zero to three in my mind.
One...
Two..
Three.
And then everything went blank.
SOMEONE
ISANG ngisi ang bumalatay sa aking mukha habang hawak-hawak ang babaeng target ko sa aking misyon.
"Finally, I will be able to get my revenge for what happened to her." Inis akong napatingin sa inosenteng mukha nito.
"It's been a while, Jessica. And now, taste my wrath of revenge for what you did to her."
I remember her now. I remember who is she in my life. And I couldn't help myself but to get annoyed at her. She is the one who killed her and now it's payback time.
An evil smirk crossed my face again as I walk myself through the shadows.
"I will going to kill you, Jessica.."
