*flashback*

"Magpapa-gas muna tayo, babe." Thirdy said and stopped at the gas station.

Bea just nodded while reading the poem they just finished writing awhile ago.

"Konti nalang magseselos na ako diyan sa papel na yan." Thirdy joked.

"Ulol. It's so beautiful kasi...like me." Bea smirked.

Thirdy just rolled his eyes playfully and handed the gasoline boy his payment.

"Sus, if alam ko lang, agree ka naman sa sinabi ko." Bea proudly said.

"Sino nagsabing hindi?" Thirdy chuckled.

Bea immediately slapped the latter's shoulder.

"Aray! What was that for?!"

"Wala lang." Bea giggled.

"Here we go again at your mood swings." Thirdy shook his head while laughing.

"Babe alam mo ba, I suddenly crave for ube ice cream." Bea pouted.

"Oh, it's ok. Dadaan naman tayo sa 7-11 then--"

"I also want taho." Bea childishly smiled.

Thirdy looked at the girl.

"And here we go again with your cravings. Ganito ba talaga ang mga girls during their monthly per--?" Thirdy laughed.

"Ewan ko sayo." Bea rolled her eyes and just stared outside.

"Ay galit nanaman siya. Oo na hahanap tayo." Thirdy smiled which made Bea smile too.

"Sir, eto na po yung sukli niyo." The gasoline boy said.

"Thank you." Thirdy was about to start his engine when the guy suddenly talked to him.

"Sir, pwede po magtanong?" The boy slightly covered his face with his cap.

Thirdy hesistated at first because the guy wasn't showing his whole face, but he agreed anyway.

"Dadaan po ba kayo sa may sementeryo?"

"Ah, sa St. Paul's Cementery?" Thirdy asked.

The guy nodded.

"Yeah, why?"

But both of them noticed that the guy became uneasy.

"Uh...may road construction po doon. Inaayos po yung isang lane. So one way lang po doon." The boy awkwardly said.

"Ohhh. Thank you." Bea and Thirdy said in unison.

The gasoline boy just nodded and walked away.

"That's....weird." Thirdy said and started driving.

"Sa sobrang dami nang bad people dito, it becomes weird if someone does a good thing." Bea laughed while playing with the paper.

"Hawak mo pa yang poem?" Thirdy unbelievably said.

"Why not?" Bea stuck her tongue out and hugged the paper.

"You're weird too." Thirdy chuckled.

After a few minutes of driving, they are now about to enter the one-way road.

"The gasoline boy was right. One lane at one way lang." Bea said.

"That's why siguro walang sasakyan dito."

Bea looked outside and suddenly had goosebumps.

"It's so creepy. We are driving near the cementery, and it's so dark."
