Chapter 24. Mon Amie

Aeon's POV

"Fiery is the closest person that I have aside from my sister after the mess she made" panimula ni Thalia sa kwento niya.

"How did you meet her?" tanong ko sakanya. Many things have been bothering me since she died and I have to find out the answers to those things.

"Our first encounter was very unpleasant for seeing me in an awkward way with someone" nahihiyang sagot ko ng maalala ko ang una naming pagkikita.

"But that's not actually the first time I saw her" napakunot noo ako sa sagot niya.

"What do you mean?" tanong ko sakanya.

"We're actually schoolmates even when we we're in pre school. Hindi nga lang kami close. We became close when we were in middle school" sagot niya. Lalo akong napakunot sa sinagot niya. That's impossible.

"So, you're saying that you first met her in preschool?" tanong ko sakanya. It doesn't make sense.

"Yup. She's actually popular even then" sagot niya. All the information that I have right now is making my head spin.

"What happened after that?" tanong ko sakanya. I have to know what happened when they became friends.

"We became close. Nagpalipat pa ako ng unit sa unit niya para lang magkasama kami araw araw. We're actually inseperable. Sabi nga ng karamihan parang mas kapatid pa ang turing ko sakanya kaysa sa tunay kong kapatid. Maybe that's one of the reasons why my already broken relationship with my sister severed" kwento pa niya.

"You shared the same unit?" tanong ko sakanya. Tumango naman siya bilang sagot.

"I want to see your unit" sabi ko saka agad na tumayo.

Tumayo naman si Thalia saka nag umpisang maglakad na sinundan namin ni Dark. Lumabas kami ng building saka naglakad patungo sa pad na tinutuluyan ni Thalia. Hindi naman nagtagal ay nakarating rin kami. Tiningala ko ang building ng Political Science Department. I've never been to this part of the school dahil wala naman akong dahilan para pumunta sa department na to. I took a step forward but has been hault when a memory suddenly flashes through my mind. It's Thalia and she's smiling while talking to her as they walk into this building. Why am I seeing these things?

"Are you okay?" biglang tanong ni Dark na siyang nasa likuran ko.

"I'm fine" sagot ko sakanya saka tinuloy ang paglalakad. I tried my best to reign the pain in my head everytime strange scenes keep flashing through my mind. Hindi ko alam maintindihan ang sarili ko. Why am I seeing memories that she had?

Ilang minuto pa kaming naglakad bago makarating sa ikaapat na palapag ng building. Naglakad kami sa may hallway hanggang sa matapat kami sa isang unit. Nang makita ko ang numero ng unit ay bigla nalang may nagplay sa utak ko na mga memoryang hindi ko maintindihan kung sa kapatid ko ba o sa akin. It's a scene where Thalia is standing with someone infront of this same unit.

"Are you sure you're okay? You look pale and you're like in pain" ani Dark sa tabi ko.

"I'm fine. Pwede na ba tayong pumasok?" I assured Dark then ask Thalia. Tumango lang siya bilang sagot saka tinapat ang kanyang key card sa nagsisilbing lock ng pintuan. Tumunog ito saka bumukas. Niluwagan ni Thalia ang pagkakabukas sa pintuan para makapasok kami. But when I saw the room memories plays inside my head. It's like a video which is played with fastforward.

Wala akong nagawa ng bigla nanamang sumakit ang ulo ko. This pain. It's like when I was in our house. When a memory played inside my head. Napaluhod nalang ako habang hawaka ang aking ulo.
