Dilim. Yan ang nakikita ni Chase. Ang tangi niyang nakikita.
He was torn between chasing the car or going back to the venue.
By then suddenly he found himself running back to his friends.
"Yo, Chase bro, bakit pawis na pawis ka?" tanong ni Bolt.
"I—- never mind"
"H-ha???"
"Can y'all call Hart?", Chase said as calming as possible so they won't notice.
"Bakit?", tanong naman nila.
"Diba wala siya kanina? I kinda saw his car sa parking lot, come on just call him, then ask where he is," aniya
Collin called Hart immediately.
when hart answered he turned it into speaker mode.
"Bro, where are you?" Collin asks casually.
"Pauwi na bro, sorry di ako nakapagpaalam, it's a bit urgent," he answers.
"Who are you with?" asks Collin.
"Uhm, no one,"
Chase tries to be as calm and collected as possible. Sinungaling!
"Hm, ok, gtg, bye," if Hart is a master deceiver, Collin is his equal.
You can fool Collin and think you succeeded but he's always one step closer than you. That's why it's never really easy to prank him every since they were younger.
"Can y'all call Ara too? I'm dead batt eh," pasimpleng tanong ni Chase.
"I'll do it," ani Yam, while the phone was ringing he turned it into speaker mode.
"H-hello?"
"Uy Ara! Asan ka?"
"Pauwi na, sorry ah wala ako dyan,"
Fuck. Don't believe her anymore. Don't. Pilit na pinapasok ni Chase sa isipan ni Ara.
He had enough of all the lies.
But why isn't he telling to his friends what he really saw? Bakit di niya sinasabi? Bakit di niya kanyang sabihin? Is he too whipped for that girl? What extent can he go to be able to fully torment him? Why is he munching on those lies trying to put in his mind that it's the truth? The lies from her mouth turns into truths when spoken. Shit, bakit ako nagkakaganito? Chase asks himself.

And just like that they were back to school.
An uptight atmosphere was very evident between all of them.
No one seems to talk about it though.
"Sige Jackson, sunduin mo nalang ako later, I'll just text you,"
"Ok po Ma'am,"
"Ok, ingat,"
Pumasok na si Ara sakanilang classroom.
Tumabi ito kay Rachel na parang wala sa mood.
"A-Ara..."
"Oh, Rachel, bakit?" agad nitong tinanong.
"S-si Hart... nakita ko sila ni Aileen," her eyes widen by what her bestfriend said.
"A-anong— saan?"
