Must Keep A Secret

There's music, sort of like a choir in church, then I heard someone and he told me to go outside.

Ewan ko, pero sinunod ko ang sinabi ng tao na iyon.

 I closed my eyes, and the moment I opened them, the scenario changed, and I felt like I was falling, as if I were entering a hidden part of myself.

The next thing I knew, I found myself in an empty, dark room.

Tanging ang liwanag na nanggagaling sa buwan ang nagsisilbing ilaw sa loob.

"Lumapit ka dito."

There's a man's voice, and it sounded familiar to me.

Narinig ko na ang boses na 'yon noon.

"Lumapit ka sa 'kin, huwag kang matakot."

I took a step closer to the source of the voice, and there stood in front of me a man wearing a masquerade mask.

I only saw his thin lips because of the mask he was wearing.

"Are you afraid?" he asked.

His voice was deep, with a serious tone. 

He stepped forward and I trembled. My heart pounded against my chest. 

I couldn't move my body.

"Ikaw ang pinapalapit ko, pero ako 'tong naglalakad patungo sa 'yo ngayon."

He stepped closer, but I couldn't move my feet.

Huli na nang mapagtanto kong tuluyan na siyang nakalapit sa akin.

I wanted to shout, but I couldn't.

Natapat sa mukha niya ang liwanag ng buwan.

"S--sino ka?" I asked, finally.

He laughed. "Hindi na importante kung sino ako."

"Please, tell me... who are you?" 

Again, my heart pounded so fast when he removed the masquerade mask he's wearing.

It's him again.

His eyes were a mesmerizing deep ocean blue with silvery flecks. His features were sculpted from granite, and his face was strong and defined.

His eye brows were dark, which sloped downwards in a serious expression. 

He smiled at saka niya inilapit ang bibig sa tapat ng tainga ko.

That was insane. It sent shivers down my back.

"Who are you?" I asked him again.

"It isn't necessary to know who I am."

His hands suddenly clasped mine as he stared deeply into my eyes. "I'm only here to warn you."

His lips brushed my ear as he spoke, "You must keep a secret if you don't want to die."

The next thing I knew?

He had slammed his lips to mine and nearly knocked all wind from my lungs.
