CHAPTER FIFTY FOUR: Tyler's Connection

Nayeli

I open the shower and tinimpla yung init nito. When I am sure that I got the right temperature already step in for a quick bath.

"Pervert ectoplasm." I mumbled as I shampoo my hair.

(-___-) Dapat nagparamdam sya agad that he is inside my room pagpasok ko pa lang para naiwasan yung nangyari kanina! Paano na lang if naituloy ko yung paghuhubad ko? Eh di nalintikan na!

Sinabon ko na yung mukha ko after that I went back into the shower. All of a sudden the water became so hot I shriek ng dumampi ito sa balat ko. I step back and stepped on a soap. I landed hard on the bathroom floor and hit my head. I felt dizzy after that.

"Nayeli?!!!!" Jerome shouted behind the door. "Are you okay?!" Jerome shouted again.

I can hear him but I can't speak. I can't even open my eyes dahil umiikot yung paligid ko.

"I will open the door!" Jerome said. Sasabihin ko sana not to do that because I am lying here naked on the floor but nothing came out of my mouth.

The knob turns then the door slightly opens. Pagbukas nito a towel flew towards Jerome's face covering it then another towel landed on me.

"A....you...kay?" I heard Tyler's voice but putol putol ito. Medyo naaninag ko din sya ng kaunti looking at me with a worried face.

After that Jerome steps in and carried me out. Inihiga nya ako sa bed and then he touches my right temple. I flinched. Mahapdi kasi.

"You're bleeding. Here press it. Tatawagan ko yung doctor ni Tyler to come over." Jerome said then he went out of my room after giving me a hand towel.

Ano bang nangyari? Why did the shower become so hot and why is there a soap lying on the bathroom floor?

I tried to sit but a force pulled me down.

"Okay na ako Tyler." I said. I can't hear what he said but I guess naglilitanya na naman sya sa katigasan ng ulo ko.

Am I imagining things kanina sa banyo? Nakita at narinig ko nga ba talaga si Tyler?

After five minutes bumalik si Jerome to check up on me. "Dadating na si doc in 30 minutes. Wala na bang sumasakit sayo?" Jerome asks.

I shook my head. "Thank you." I said with a smile.

"Did you throw the towel on me?" Nagtatakang tanong ni Jerome sa akin.

I chuckled. It's probably Tyler who did that para hindi ako makitaan ng pinsan nya.

(◎ ◎') Si Jerome walang nakita. Eh paano naman kaya si Tyler?

"Are you alright? You look a little bit pale." Jerome said.

I feel all my blood drained from my face. What if Tyler saw everything?!!!

After assuring him that I am fine lumabas na si Jerome to wait for the doctor.

"Tyler? Are you in here?" I ask but walang reaction. Maybe he is not in my room. If he's not in here then nasaan naman kaya sya ngayon?

Tyler

After I covered Nayi with another towel I saw a dark figure lurking behind my cousin. I followed it as it went out of our guestroom.

Nagulat ako kasi it entered my room. I slowly went through the door and to my surprise I saw the dark figure beside my body and it was about to touch it.

"Hey!" I shouted. The shadowy figure then disappeared.

What is it and what does it need from me? Napatingin ulit ako sa sugat sa kamay ko. Did that figure do that to my hand?
