Habang kumakain kami ay tanging tunog lamang ng kutsara at tinidor ang maririnig. This is so awkward.
"I heard what happened to your classmates, is that true?" Seryoso tanong ni dad sa akin.
Napabuntong hininga ako dahil sa wala akong choice kung hindi ay magsalita.
"Yes dad," I simply said.
"They suicide? And sabay sabay pa sila. It's weird" I let him speak alone like he was just alone at the dining table.
I don't want to interrupt him, and I want this to be finished.
"Don't you ever try to do what your classmates did, sweetie. I might also die if you do that, got it?" It's sarcastic. Mahahalata mo naman kung hindi yun sarkastiko diba?
I just nodded.
I don't care about him anymore. If mom were here, maybe I wouldn't encounter the demon in this house every day.
After dinner, ay agad akong nagtungo sa kwarto upang magkulong. This day is different.
Muli na namang sumagi sa isipan ko ang larawan nung tatlo kong kaklase na namatay dahil sa pagkakahulog nito.
Aish, I don't wanna remember it again.
Napailing ako at saka pikit na iniwaksi sa isipan ang nangyari kanina. Aishhh!!! Bumangon ako kasi di ako makatulog. So, I also decided to open my social media account and see the news.
Pag-open ko sa account ko sa facebook ay agad na bumungad sa akin ang post ng isa sa kaklase ko. She posted about Maricar, Janelle and Maeka's death.
She captioned about how close they were when the three girls were still alive. I looked at the comment section at halos condolences lamang ang nababasa ko.
But while scrolling down in the comment section, ay may biglaang nag-comment.
'They were killed. I saw it with my two eyes. The killer was wearing a full black shirt, hoodie, hat, and jeans.'
Bago pa lamang ang comment na ito, 1 second ago.
Huh?
I clicked the profile to see the information of the one who commented, unfortunately, it's empty. Walang kalaman laman ang timeline nito.
Nakita niya rin ba yung lalaking nasa itaas kanina? Kilala niya kaya iyon?
And, how did he know na siya yung pumatay sa tatlong kaklase ko?
Aish. This made my head hurt.
I've decided to close my laptop and tried my best to sleep.
But I know that I can't.
Kinapa ko ang nasa kaliwa kong direksyon nang may naramdaman akong isang bagay na nakalagay sa kama ko.
"Ano to?" I grabbed that thing.
Ngunit pinagsisihan ko bigla ang pagkuha nito.
"Bakit ito nandito?!" Gulat na gulat kong tanong.
Deathnote.
Takte, paano ito napunta rito?
Ito yung notebook na biglang lumitaw sa akin kahit saan ako magpunta. Sa pagkakantanda ko ay ito ang huli kong ginamit sa pagsulat ng mga pangalan nina Maricar, Janelle and Maeka.
Wait—
Shit—
Wait, what the hell!?
Dali dali kong binuksan ang notebook nang may napagtanto ako.
