"Akala ko siya na... pero..."
Sa puno ng Akasya, ito'y puno ng pag-aakala. Emosyon, hugot, pag-asa at luha ay hindi na kinasya. Subalit pag-ibig nga ba'y naaksaya kahit sa hulihan nito'y walang mapapala?
Ikaw, ano sa tingin mo sa isang 'akala'?
BABA...

Chapter 10 / Scare Crow
THE THOUGHT that you were almost an inch closer to your own death. The situation that you wanted to escape, terribly barricading every leading way that was left behind. The feeling of helplessness, burdening the unexpected outcome fleets me from puking shock. All of this is the fact that’s already stamped in and out within me.
‘Yung pakiramdam na walang-wala ka ng mapupuntahan at ang nag-iisa mo lamang na pagpipilian ay ang tumakbo ng walang katapusan. Nakakikilabot isipin na mayroong tao na naghahangad na patayin ako. Ang hirap paniwalaan, pero iyon na ang nakaukit sa tadhana. Pero ang isang napakalaking tanong na bumabagabag sa isipin ko ay kung ano ang dahilan?
Nakalilito. Napakagulo. Katakot-takot.
Is it possible that Akasya Association ang pakana ng lahat ng ito? Subalit hindi pa ako nakapagsimula sa pag-imbestiga. No… rather than that was my curiosity regarding the owner of the mystified necklace. In any case, another possibility is that someone might knew along that I am looking him or her, the owner. Pero sino?
Another mystery in my plate that is interconnected with my almost tragic event is the school’s geek nerd, naming Yuki Sampson. Maybe I should keep closely an eye to him, because he may be the next victim or maybe one of them. We never know, how inquisitive and twisted their playing mind is.
This time, I have to be more careful every time I seek answers because the aftermath was so much to be unexpected. It almost traumatized me intensively, but thankfully I coped up for good.
Remember about what happened on that delusional night? I couldn’t avert the fact that Zero came to rescue me. It almost made me to think a cringe thought that he was my ever night shining armor. I never thought na darating siya. He became my crying shoulders at that time. Nakahihiya, pero iyon ang nangyari.
Pagkatapos nahanap ako ni Zero sa madilim at liblib na kagubatan, hindi na muli nagpakita ang misteryong tao na gigil na gigil akong patayin. As soon as Zero saw the cuts and injury I had taken, he made an alternative bandage using his sweater in order to stop the flow of my blood. Mabilis, ngunit dahan-dahan niya din akong inaalalayan pabalik sa Cabin’s Hall. As expected, everyone was shocked nang nakita ang aking kalagayan. Pity were drawn over their eyes on me. As well as a big mystery etched and jot into their mind. Thereafter, rumesponde naman ang ambulansya at pulis sapagkat biglaan na lang akong nawalan ng malay.
After that surreal night, it has been a very rough week for me. Buti na lang talaga ay nasa tabi ko palagi sina Choral at Keevah. Pati na din sina Zero, Cace and Gene Karim. I even tried myself to get involve some school activities stuff so that my attention would be temporarily averted. But there were some time that I remembered the outrageous pain and fear from my experience. Sa kadahilanang madami ang kating-kating kung ano ang nangyari sa akin, but I still yielded to avoid the flood of their questions. Ang alam lang nila ay may gustong nagtangkang pumatay sa akin at that time.
