Rest now, Mayumi and, be strong, Chino.
"You've grown up." Zhyrheil suddenly said while looking straight forward to the street.
I have grown up.
I smiled to that thought. If I'll tell everything to them what happened earlier, they might say those to me, too. I miss them even more. My two important person.
"What are you thinking right now?" he asked, and his voice is now soft.
He is sometimes mysterious. He have different moods and it's really unpredictable. Minsan masaya, minsan masungit, minsan cold, at minsan ganito-soft spoken person. He's calm as the ocean and his face is innocent as a child.
Kung sabagay, mga bata pa naman talaga kami.
Umangat ako ng tingin sa kanya at ngumiti ng kunti, "My family." I answered, he nodded.
"Your mom and dad raised you with gentle care. That's why you're adorable just like those flowers that everyone would wish to have." sabi niya kaya napahinto ako habang nakatingin lang sa kanyang naglalakad.
Napapitok ako ng ilang beses habang nakatingin lang sa likod niya.
What a poetic way of saying something.
It's my first time to hear those words to a new person I've known. Ni kahit kailan, hindi ko narinig iyon sa mga nakasama at naging close ko sa amin. They didn't even say "thank you", when I helped them. They didn't compliment me like that.
"Thank you. . ." I said to the wind while smiling at his back. Though, hindi niya ako makikita but I know he can feel I am thankful to his compliment.
Nagpatuloy ako sa paglakad hanggang sa makalabas kami sa sobrang laking gate ng campus. The gate is sooo big like a giant and no one could get rid of it. Feel ko nga kung mabundol mo yung gate baka ikaw pa mismo unang ihalo sa semyento sa sobrang tigas ng mga bakal.
Nung nakalabas na kami, walang bodyguard. Napatayo pa ako ng iilang minuto dahil iniisip ko kung bakit walang guard kung sabado. Diba daily trabaho nila? Oh. . . Wait. I forgot, masyado pa palang umaga para mag-duty.
Tinalikuran ko yun, pero bago pa ako tumalikod may nakita akong isang babaeng nakatingin sa akin mula rooftop. I know it's looking at me. My eyes widened for what I see. She's really looking straight at me!
Kumabog bigla ang dibdib ko. Bumalik lahat nangyari kanina. The demon. . . The monster. . . Wait, what am I thinking?! Napaparanoid na ako!
No, Almira. Wala kang nakikita, wala kang nakita.
Pinapaniwala ko ang sarili kong wala lang iyon.
I turned my back and follow Zhyrheil, but still I can feel her gaze. This is freaking the hell out of me! Bakit ba kasi sa rooftop?! I've read articles about some ghosts that you'll see in the rooftops. They are those ghosts who's committing suicide and wants other to commit, too. I don't know if it is true since all the school I have been studied don't have rooftops!
Kumababog na nang malakas ang dibdib ko. Para na rin akong nahihirapang huminga.
"Mira, you alright?" biglang huminto si Zhyrheil at tumingin sa akin. When his face faced mine, I saw the surprise in his eyes. "Namumutla ka, may nakita ka ba?"
Nag-panic na rin siya. He hold my hand and then look everywhere. Nagulat ako sa ginawa niya, nawala takot ko sa pinaggagawa niya!
What is he doing?!
Agad kong kinalas ang kamay ko sa kamay niya at matulis siyang tiningnan. Then, he realized what he did kaya lumayo siya ng kunti.
"I'm sorry. I just panicked. I thought you see dark creatures. And since I can't see them, I need to hold your hand so that I can see what you can." he said, napatingin na naman ako sa kanya nang nalilito.
