Hinatid ako ni Gavril sa bahay para na rin hinatid si Sham-sham. Nilagay ko lang sa kitchen ang mga pinamili ko at binalikan sila sa sala. Naghanda rin ako ng juice at kumuha ako ng chocolates na pinadala ni Auntie Remi para ibigay sa kanya. Safe naman kaming nakauwi kahit na takot na takot ako kanina habang nasa jeep kami. Takot akong madikitan ng kahit sino at isa pa dahil sa driver ng jeep na nakitaan ko ng vision ko.
Naupo ako sa t

Chapter 19. “Not a threat but a warning” “I think, hindi ‘yong jeep na sinakyan natin ang gagamitin niyang jeep the day of the accident.” sabi ni Gavril na kinabigla ko. Naguluhan ako sa sinabi ni Gavril. “A-Anong ibig mong sabihin?” hindi makapaniwalang tanong ko. Gavril look elsewhere. “If I’m not mistake, the date in your vision is on April 17, 2019, that day is Friday, and base on his platenumber, XXX 010” iniisip ko naman muli ang nakita ko sa vision ko tungkol sa driver. Gavril looked at me. “He is coding on that day.” Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa sinabi niya. Kinabahan ako at natahimik saka ako napaiwas ng tingin. “So, I was thinking kung ibang jeep ang gagamitin niya.” “But,” muling nabalik ang tingin ko sa kanya nang magsalita. “There is another thing confusing here.” dagdag pa niya at tila may malalim na iniisip. “What is that?” tanong ko. Gavril sighed and faced me. “The time.” he said
Dysfunctional Chapter 20. “Right time at the right moment”
Chapter 20. “Right time at the right moment”I’m on my way to school. There will be a short meeting today regarding for tomorrow’s Youth Camp. And just like the other days, hindi kami gaanong nagkikita ni Gavril dahil busy siya sa school. Pero pag-uwi naman niya ay dumadaan siya sa bahay para bisitahin si Sham-sham. Gusto ko pa naman siyang makita dahil may sasabihin ako sa kanya.Pagpasok ko sa building ay nagtaka ako dahil biglang tumahimik ang mga students sa hallway. And I can feel that all of their eyes are on me. Their judging looks make me feel uncomfortable.I know I should be used to this, but I was just thinking what is going on now? Aren’t they aware and used to my presence as the school freak, monster, scary and creepy girl? Bakit nila ako tinitingnan ng ganito?“Believe me, I saw Gavril went to her house so many times!”“Really?”&ldquo
Dysfunctional Chapter 21. “What should we do?”
Chapter 21. “What should we do?”Gavril and I stopped here on the playgroud. We are sitting on the swing, gazing on the reddish-orange rays of sun as it is about to cover with darkness, the fleeting colors dusk began to fade away at the same time I am thinking deeply about what I saw and what is going to happen tomorrow.I turned my face on Gavril as I heard him releasing a deep sigh. “Hindi pa nga tapos ang isa, may isa na naman.”Nalungkot ako sa sinabi niya. He is right, we still have the case of the second note that will happen tomorrow and we actually don’t have concrete plan on how to stop it and yet, here go thinking another case. I explained everything to Gavril what I saw about Jaxon.“His Mom and Dad are busy at work. Yaya niya lang ang nakakasama niya sa bahay. Pero base sa kwento mo, Jaxon will be locked up on his room and there will be a fire burning their house.” Dismayadong

Chapter 22. “Saving lives, escaping death”Tulala ako habang nakaupo sa sahig at nakasandal sa pinto. Ramdam ko ang namumuong pawis sa aking noo na tumutulo pababa sa aking pisngi dahil sa init dito sa loob ng stockroom. Dati itong speech laboratory kaya naman kulob ito at salamin ang mga bintana na hindi nabubuksan.Maya’t-maya kong tinitingnan ang relo ko para tingnan ang oras. Magkakalahating oras na akong nakakulong dito sa loob ng stock room. I tried to break it for me to open the door but it didn’t work. Naka-lock ng padlock mula sa labas ang pinto. Hindi ko rin dala ang phone ko na naiwan ko sa bag. Wala rin gaanong students ang dumadaan dito sa dulo ng hallway. At kung meron man, kahit sumigaw ako ay hindi nila ako maririnig dahil sound proof din ang buong kwarto kaya kahit sumigaw ako at humingi ng tulong sa labas ay wala ring makakarinig sa akin.Muli akong napatingin sa relo ko, it’s 4:30 PM in t

Chapter 23. “Recklessness and Sacrifices”“Gavril!” malakas kong sigaw habang tulala sa nasusunog na bahay. Lumabas naman ng gate ang Yaya ni Jaxon kasama siya habang ako ay naiwan na tulala sa nasusunog na bahay. Si Gavril, nasa loob pa siya!“Hindi,” sambit ko kasabay ng pagtulo ng luha ko. “Gavril.” Humagulgol ako ng iyak, napayuko at napaluhod. Hindi maaari, bakit naging ganito?“Roux!” mabilis akong napatingala nang marinig kong may tumawag sa akin. Pagtingin ko ay nabigla ako at nakahinga ng maluwag habang nakatingin sa kanya.“Gavril!” sigaw ko saka tumayo. Tumakbo naman siya palapit sa akin. Puno ng dumi ang kanyang mukha.“Hindi ko na naagapan ang apoy, mabilis itong kumalat at bago pa sumabog ay tumakbo na ako.” aniya at saka ako hinila palabas ng gate.Paglabas namin ng gate ay marami nang tao ang nasa labas at natataranta

Nagsuot nga rin pala siya ng coat kanina habang nasa kotse kami. At kotse ng family nila ang gamit namin.Nakatingin lang ako sa kanya habang kumakain siya nang mapahinto siya at tumingin din sa akin kaya napaiwas ako at sinimulan na rin ang pagkain. Narinig ko pa ang pagngisi at mahinang pagtawa niya. Halata bang kanina ko pa siya pinapanuod?Pagtapos naming mag-lunch ay muli kaming sumakay ng kotse at sabi niya ay may isa pa kaming pupuntahan.
