Louie POV'
Kruuuhhhh.....
Tss. Tinatamad pa naman akong gumalaw. Wala talagang pakikisama tong tummy ko. Kainis!!
I searched for my alarm clock and darn, I haven't bought a new one so I literally check the window. Most probably, it should be around 6 pm. The sun is setting down.
I decided to grab some food in the cafeteria.
Sana lang walang mga monkeys na wanna be frogs.
Naglalakad ako palabas ng dorm when I heard some of the fan girls of Torren.
Look girls!! She still have her guts to show up!! Mean girl #1
Well, aren't you guys used to it?? Like duh! She's so plastic kaya to the highest level.
Mean girl #2
Aba!! Really? Are they serious?! Ako pa ang mukhang plastic when obviously, they are the one who looks like had undergone surgeries on their face.
Yaa!! So boring, acting innocent but the truth is, she's a bitch trying to get the attention of our prince. Mean girl #3
She's so basura here talaga. Kainis!!! I wonder talaga why did she got her feet here!!
Tsk.. I'm losing my patience. Dapat sa inyo binibigyan ng ultimatum.
I turned to face the fantards of Torren when my attention caught by another group.
Ibang klase pare, mukhang wala talagang kawala yung chick na'yon ngayon. Boy #1
Hahaha, iba na pala ang taste mo pare. Nahipan na ba ng hangin yang utak mo pre at tinawag mong chick yung nerdy na yon na walang ginawa kundi umiyak. hahaha Boy #2
Ulul!! Hindi ka ba nagagandahan dun pre? Minsan nakita ko yung walang eye-glasses and pre I'm telling you she's one of a kind-
Sobrang bilis ng tibok ng puso ko ng marinig ko ang usapan nila. Halos gustuhin kong mag teleport sa tabi nila para lang masiguro ang kutob ko, and it's freaking killing me.
Halos gamitin ko lahat ng lakas ko sa paglapit sa dalawang lalaking naguusap para itanong kung sino ang tinutukoy nila.
"Answer me!! Who are you referring to?" I asked as I put my hands on the first guy's collar
"B-Baliw ka ba?! Anong referring-referring ka dyan??" sagot niya na may pagkabigla but he's trying to stay cool but, I won't buy that trick
"Haha-" halak-hak ng kasama niya pero dahil sa sobrang kaba, takot at pagaalala hindi ko na napigilin ang sarili ko at mabilis kong pinalipad ang kamao ko sa mukha niya.
"Don't talk if not needed" I just glanced at him angrily and I quickly put my attention to the guy I'm holding right now.
"Ngayon tatagalugin ko ang tanong ko para maintindihan mo! Sino ang pinaguusapan niyong nerd kanina?!!" I asked him not sure if I want to hear his answer though
"S-Sino bang tinutukoy m-mo?" Tsk.
"Sasagutin mo ang tanong ko o manghihiram ka ng mukha sa kaibigan mo!!" Ulit ko sa tanong kanina.
"Ha-hu-ah y-yung n-nerdy ba? Hindi ko alam ang p-pangalan niy- aherm!!aherm!!" Napaubo siya ng higpitan ko pa ang hawak sa kwelyo niya at habulin niya ang hininga niya.
"-p-pero s-sigurado a-ako nakita ko na kayong magkasama..!! Ah p-pati na rin ang grupo ng Death Mark. OO!! Tama s-siya nga yun!!" He said while jittering.
"ANONG DAHILAN AT PINAG-UUSAPAN NIYO SI ANDREA?!" huling tanong na gusto kong masagot
"A-Ah hindi k-ko sigurado p-pero napakinggan ko n-na-" hindi ko napigilang "WHAT?!!!!" sigaw ko
"na nasa loob siya ng detention room at kasama niya ang ilan sa grupo ng Phoenix.." Mas dobleng tibok ng puso ang nararamdaman ko ngayon.
Isipin ko palang si Andrea na nasa loob ng detention room hindi ko na ma-imagine kung gaano kasama, idagdag mo pa ang bwisit na gang na un. The fact that they are a Phoenix members is violence.
"Kung ako sayo Louie, tama ba?.." Bumalik ako sa katawan ko ng sambitin niya ang pangalan ko but still I can't let my mind out of Andrea's situation.
"Puntahan mo na siya bago mahuli ang lahat at pagsamantalahan nila ang kaibigan mo" parang nabingi ako sa sinabi niya at isang tawa ang pinakawalan niya.
Malakas ang pakiramdam kong he's into something but I can't risk Andrea's safety.
Mabilis akong tumakbo patungong detention room habang iniisip ang mga bagay na pwede nilang gawin sa kanya.

Jin POV'
Hay. Grabe ang sarap huminga ngayong alam na naming okey na si Travis. Tarantado talaga! Pinag-alala kami ng sobra.
"Ag!" napahawak ako sa nuo ko ng may maliit na bagay na tumama dito
"Hahahaha... Tanda anong tinatawa-tawa mo dyan?!!" tanong ni Travis habang may nakakainis na ngiti
Lokong 'to ah. Binato ako ng ubas. Tsch! May araw ka rin sa aking kumag ka.
"Ano bang pinag-sasabi mo, dude? Yan ba epekto ng comatose sayo haha?" Nakatawa kong tanong
"Ulul! Kanina ka pa dyang nakangiti habang nakatingin sa'kin..
Wag mon-" sagot ni Travis na pinutol ko agad
"Woa!woa! Ako nakangiti?!" tumingin ako kay na Xander at Hiro at nakangiting tumatango sa akin.
Wow! Are they serious? Ako? Si Jin? The chick magnet? Haha there's no way dude.
"Mukhang talagang sobra kang pinag-alala ng baby namin ah, kaya ikaw naman baby you should always put yourself on guard" nakangiting sabi ni Tita Trinity habang hinihimas-himas ang buhok ni Travis like a pet.
Bwahahaha.. I guess Tita Trinity will avenge Travis for me. Hahaha!!
"Mom!! I'm not a kid nor your baby anymore!! I'm a grown up boy now so stop calling me that way!" Naka simangot na protesta ni Travis
"Bab-" Tita Trinity
"Dad?!" Nakasimangot parin si Travis habang nakabaling ag mukha sa kinaroroonan ni Tito Jd.
"Hon, I guess you should stop calling our bab- I mean Travis a baby cause he's a grown up boy already, right young boy?"
"Tss" inis niyang sagit
"Yes Tito he's a grown up boy, that's why he's into Andrea, right dude?"
"Shut your mouth, Tanda!" Pilit kong pinigilan ang tawa ko dahil sa matalim na tingin ni Travis. Haha ang gago namumula.
"Oh my, Hon! Our baby boy has his girl!!" Masayang sambit ni Tita Trinity
"Who's this lucky girl you guys are talking about?" Tipid na tanong ni Tito Jd pero bakas sa mukha niya ang pag pigil ng ngiti
"MOM!!DAD!!" Haha. This is getting more fun.
"Andrea Tita"/" Leandrei Tito" at talagang sabay pa namin naisipang pagtripan ni Hiro si Travis haha. Colleague
"Leandrei?" Travis said quickly
"Leandrei sounds familiar.. I am sure I already heard that name before right, Hon?" Tita said
"Ah Ye-" Tito Jd
"Andrea Tito Jd"/" Andrea Tita Trinity"
Again we said in unison
"Oh Andrea pala.. Hon I thought I heard Leandrei, but anyway whoever she is, she is lucky to have our baby" Tita Trinity said
Matalim naman akong tinitignan ni Travis. O men I'm dead.. Paano na ito.
Napatingin ako kay Xander para humingi ng saklolo pero ang tarantado walang pakialam kundi ang magbasa.
Baliw ba siya? Sa loob ng ospital? Sa pagkakaalam ko sa library ang tamang lugar ng pagbabasa diba?
Hays!! Iba talaga ang epekto ni Louie sa kanya.
"Aaahgg!!" Napalapit kaming apat kay Travis ng humawak ito sa kanyang batok at dumaing sa sakit.
"Hey Dude what's going on?!"
Tanong ko habang ay pagaalala
"Baby what's wrong??!!" Tanong naman ni Tita na bakas ang sobrang pagaalala
Mabilis namang pumunta si Tito Jd sa side ng lamp table at pinindot ang emergency button.
"Hang on young boy" saad ni Tito Jd
"No, I'm fine Dad, Mom don't worry too much, I can handle myself.. Guys don't worry" sabi ni Travis at muling bumaling sa amin nila Hiro ng may masamang tingin.
"Are you sure baby?!" Tita Trinity asked
"Mom I said stop calling me baby!-ahh" shit! Ano bang nangyayari sa kanya?.
"Hon I think we should let him rest, maybe we're stressing him out" Hay. Tama siguro nga masyado lang siyang naiingayan samin.
"I guess we should get goin Tito, Tita" Xander break his silence with his goodbye. Anong klase?!! Tsk.
"A-Ah Xander.. About Torren.." Travis asked sadly and bowed his head
"No need to worry about him, Travis you guys are fine." buti na lang Xander is with us.
"Actually bro his on his way here, but I think you need to rest first." Assurance ko kay Travis
"A-Ah nga pala, Mom, Dad, mga bro salamat dahil andyan kayo sa tabi ko.. A-At pasensya na rin dahil masyado ko kayong pinag-alala" saad ni Travis habang kumakamot pa sa ulo pagkatapos humingi ng tawad. Isip bata pa rin.
Torren POV'
"May problema po ba? Is this about Louie?" I asked Tito Jd.
Tito Jd and Tita Trinity want to talk to me so I just checked Travis condition quickly.
"Yes.." I know Tito for they always visit Travis once in awhile. But after what happened last night, I have this awkward feeling towards them.
"We would like to give our gratitude to you for taking care of our daughter last night" dagdag ni Tita Trinity.
"Was that all you wanna say?!" I asked them coldly
"Actually we also have a favor to ask from you" Tito said
I turned to rest my back on the wall to hear them out.
"First and foremost, please take care and protect our daughter. I know you'll do well, but please put extra care on her. She's very fragile." Tita said
"I will do that Mam even if you didn't ask for." I said confidently.
"If that so, then I should give my full trust on you, young boy" I can't find a word to say and all I did was to give them a reassuring nod.
"One last thing.." My eyes are stuck on Tito. I did not say a single word.
"In any case that Louie can't remember what happened last night, please let us tell her about Travis. We just need more time to prepare everything for them." I can't believe what I just heard from them.
"So all this time you know her forgetting stuffs?" I asked trying to stay cool
How could they?! Paano nilang nagawang hayaang pabayaan si Louie in that state.
"We've been doing research about her condition and we are able to identify it because of her previous episodes." Tito Jd explained.
"That's the only way we can keep her from feeling so much pain as much as the pain she was feeling" Tita starts crying.
"Though she's still hurting, her condition helps her endure the pain, after she falls asleep with the pain.. she might forget it"
"E-Even if it hurts... it hurts us with the same pain, we feel the same pain that I even wish that I could just get it and take all her baggage and free her from that nightmare.. B-But in reality, it will never work that way.." My heart is being pricked by thousands of needles.
After I heard Tita Trinity, I witness how hard it is for them and for her.
I wanted to ask about her nightmare but I feel like the timing is not right. I just want to give them my commitment and assurance that I'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe and if I can make her forget that memories, I'll do everything.
"You have my word Mam, Sir" I said and vowed to them
"We'll count on you, young boy." Tito Jd said and tap my shoulder
Kring...
Kring...
Kring...
Hello..Hey, Hey.. SHE'S WHAT!! What do you mean? S-Stop crying please.. Tell me e-exactly what happened??? N-NO! NONO!! Calm down j-just please stay beside her, d-don't leave her p-please
My body trembles as the line ended. Before, I don't have fear but now, I fear of failing to keep the people I love safe.
If there's a wish I can make right now, God please don't let anything happen to her.
