CHAPTER THIRTEEN
SKELETONS IN THE CLOSETS [PART ONE]
May 19, 2021
ZACK
I knew I'd crossed the line and wasn't thinking rationally, but I couldn't stop myself from exploding at them. Their portrayal of my grandfather insulted me as a stinking villain. Because I know my grandfather well enough to know that he isn't the one they think he is. Yes, I accept that he sometimes speaks unpleasantly, but this is due to him being oblivious to what he is saying. Regardless of all his imperfections, he's still a respectable, good man.
I restrained myself from dwelling on what my grandfather had said to me. I know he didn't mean to harm my feelings. He was simply disappointed in me because I had become a failure to them, and his remar

SKELETONS IN THEIR CLOSETS May 19, 2021 MADDY Because of my annoyance to Zack, I fell into a bad mood and made the wrong choice to stay here in this cursed cabin. I hate to admit but I'm the type of person who holds a grudge for so long whenever I feel that someone did me wrong. I sighed as I continued fixing myself in the mirror. My eyes fell on the piercing in my hands, then suddenly a little laugh came out of my mouth when I thought of an idea that will surely make Santi mad. What if I'm wearing this earlier? I'm sure that he'll insult me even more for wearing a nose ring and adding t

REASONS WHY May 19, 2021 FINN We sat under a narra tree in front of their house. When I was still in his room, we heard the ruckus, especially the screams of Chloe and his grandma. Everyone of us was alarmed so, without hesitation I rushed outside and I was startled when I found him sitting on the floor puffing as if his lungs were lacking air. And when I approached him I never thought of bringing up the commotion that happened to them. Because I know that it was out of my league. Instead, he’s here sitting beside me while absentmindedly looking on the ground, his fingers crossed, while the anxiousness is evident in his face. And I am here contemplating when and where to start the conversation between us. Since I called him and went here he never uttered a word, maybe the fortuitous whirlwind of events really

FACING FEARMay 19, 2021FINNI gently clutch the doorknob of the backdoor of their house. When I turned at my back I saw him with his eyes closed while continuously breathing in and out in a heavy and rapid motion. His panic attacks him earlier than I expected.“I’m gonna open the door now.” I gave him a head start, he didn’t open his eyes instead he nodded vigorously.I slowly turn the doorknob while not taking my eyes off him. I watch him tenses and his anxiety even gets worse when I finally open the door wide. The wind greets us as it blows our hair and embraces our body. I saw him jittered by the touch of it.“F-Finn, I think I’m gonna have to go to the bathroo

A PLANMay 19, 2021ZACK“She killed herself. She drowned herself in this lake.” The second secret that I unveiled to Finn.It’s such a good burst of relief and it lessens the weight that I carry in my chest once I finally let out those things to someone. But the pain of my mother’s death and secrets will forever remain in my life.They said that when you get hurt you will never forget the pain that it caused you, but instead you’ll outgrow it, you’ll learn from it. But why is it different for me? Why do I always have to suffer in the same fucking pain and the same reason -- that she left me hanging filled with questions and agony?I felt my eyes sod as I reme

THE INTRUDERMay 19, 2021ZACK“What plan?” I almost dropped my whole body on the floor as a pile of cold water flushed through my skin when Jackie appeared on the front door, sucking a lollipop with one hand carrying a grocery bag.Then seconds passed, Gabby and Lizzie followed through and stumbled to Jackie and they began bickering. But I and Finn stayed shocked and silent… I really thought that it was my grandpa.“Hey, you two! Did you just see Debbie twerked, you look ugly pale.” Gabby started as he maneuvered his way through the kitchen, not minding the fact that he was bumping us.Jackie and Lizzie stifled a laugh, “did something happen when we were out?” Jackie onc

THE CELEBRATIONMay 19, 2021MADDY"HAPPY BIRTHDAY FINN AND CHLOE!" We all shouted in glee as we blew the horns and boomed the party poppers.There are two cakes for each of the birthday celebrants that are placed in the middle of the counter. Chloe’s birthday cake is a two tiered vanilla cake with different flower designs around it. While Finn’s cake is a simple matcha cake with a cherry on top.Gabby and the others prepared so much food. There are spaghetti, pancit malabon, caldereta, chicken adobo, spring rolls, pork sisig and many more. For dessert, there’s my favorite leche flan that they just ordered, marshmallow hotdogs on sticks for Chloe, and two contain

WARNINGMay 19, 2021MADDYI jerk and I didn’t expect my body to shudder tremendously when I felt his warm breath on my nape. The photos that I saw earlier flashed in my eyes like a flowing water the moment I shut my eyes. Because of what he’s doing, the fear I thought that I will never feel for anyone anymore, came back in just one wrong move by Santi.Fear and disgust mixed together.“Maddy was just curious about you, grandpa.” I heard Zack’s voice and his shaky laugh. Then seconds later I feel Santi’s presence farther away from me when he starts to step backwards.My eyes remained shut, I was in a serious catatonic state, that only my eyes can move. Because

IMPERFECT TIMINGMay 19, 2021MADDYFifteen minutes more before the clock strikes 9pm. After our meal they started drinking beers, ignoring the fact that those were brought by Santi. When I asked them if it’s really a good idea to accept the drinks, they just told me that wasting those beers by ignoring them in front of Santi is more of a wrong move. They don’t want to add more weight to our misunderstandings with him, and since we’re all gonna leave the place later, it’s fine to just put on a mask one last time. But for me I think, they just tried to look reasonable because they wanted to get drunk.Throughout the night my mind is just flying in the theories I created about the possibility of Zack’s grandparents doing such heinous things.
