Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Little Black Demon: Kabanata 131 - Kabanata 140

Xyrica’s POV: Hindi ko akalaing pagkatapos ng isang awkward na pag-uusap matapos nilang marinig ang sinabi ko kay Michiaki— ay hindi na nila hinayaang maiwan kami na magkasama. Isang linggo rin akong sinundan nina Allen, Kris, Cyborg, at JL. Habang kasama naman ni Michiaki sina Warren, Alver, Yuan, Kris, at Jhin. Hindi na sumali si Klent sa nagawang plano ni Alver kasi palagi niyang kasama ‘yung girlfriend niya. Para sa akin ay okay lang na inaatupag niya ‘yung girlfriend niya— kasi hindi naman ako sang-ayon sa plano ni Alver. Ang nakakainis pa sa plano ni Alver ay nagkakaroon lang ako ng sariling oras kapag nasa banyo ako o kaya’y nasa kwarto. Hindi ko alam kung kailan kami titigilan ng mga kaibigan namin kaya nagdesisyon kami ni Michiaki na makipag-usap sa kanilang lahat at linawin ang pangyayari. Hindi kasi nalinaw ‘yung pangyayari noong kinausap nila kami kasi nag-aw

Xyrica’s POV: As days turned into weeks, miss Ludwig and her friends have failed to contact Joy, the friend who was shifted off from another country by her own father. Monique, Ami, and Macey started distancing themselves to miss Ludwig because it was her who ruined their friendship. I don’t know if the four of them felt that way, but it was what I felt. The three started hanging out with me while Miss Ludwig hung out with her boyfriend. I don’t know if there were any arguments before they began distancing themselves from miss Ludwig. But, they somehow stopped talking about what happened— and pretended it never happened or that Joy ceased to exist. Since Monique, Ami, and Macey started clinging to me again— I had to adjust some things that Cyborg and I were supposed to do. I decided to stop the hospital thing that targeted dean Steinfeld. Because whoever was confined in that damn ho

Xyrica’s POV: Bago ako mananghalian ay kinausap ko muna si Spencer tungkol kay Joy, sa isang pribadong lugar. Gusto ko lang ipaalam sa kanya na natagpuan na ni Alver ang ginamit na number ni Joy. Pero hindi ko sasabihing si Alver ang tumulong sa akin kasi baka madamay pa siya sa oras na malaman ni dean Steinfeld ang balak namin ni Spencer na hanapin si Joy. Tumingin ako sa palagid upang masigurado na walang tao ang makakarinig sa pag-uusap namin ni Spencer. Matapos kong masiguro ay nagsalita na ako, “I’m about to tell you a good news.” Spencer looked happy and excited. Then said, “What do you mean by good news? Nahanap na ba ninyo si Joy?” I nodded and said, “Mabuti nalang at may kilala akong magaling sa ganitong bagay. And, it turns out that dean Steinfeld had never shipped his daughter off. J

Michiaki’s POV: I couldn’t stop thinking about what I heard at the Clinic while watching nurse Dawn eating her dinner. I also couldn’t believe that nurse Dawn could do this behind my back. I had been warning her about her ex-boyfriend, but it felt like she was not afraid of him. It’s a pity that I didn’t get the chance to see that man’s face right away because I felt frozen for a second. Nurse Dawn grabbed the opportunity to close the office door, which gave her ex-boyfriend the chance to escape. “Can you please stop watching me while I eat? Nagdadalawang-isip tuloy ako kung tatapusin ko pa ba ‘tong pagkain ko,” sabi ni nurse Dawn sa akin, dahilan para mawala sa isip ko ‘yung nangyari kanina. “Deal with my interrogating stares, nurse Dawn. Alam mo ba kung ano ang nararamdaman ko ngayon? I thought

Michiaki’s POV: Pagdating sa kwarto ko ay kaagad akong humiga. Nakakapagod pa lang i-sink in ang lahat ng sinabi sa akin ni nurse Dawn. Hindi ko alam kung saan ako nagkulang bilang tagabantay sa magkapatid na ‘yun. Hindi ko rin alam kung paano ko ito sasabihin sa kanya, ang taong nag-utos sa akin na bantayan sila. “I want to talk to someone, but who?” I thought to myself. Gumulong ako sa gilid at kinuha ang cellphone ko na nasa bulsa. Tinignan ko sa may contact list kung sino ‘yung pwede
