Chapter 2: Wrong Accusation

Chapter 2: Wrong Accusation

If you happen to actually turn back the time, what will you use it for? Will you use it for your own gain, or use it for others to give them a second chance to live their lives?

Some of us may not think about others when coming accross a chance like that. But if I happen to encounter such miracle just like that,

I'll use it to let him live.

"Solar? Solar!" pag-aagaw atensyon saakin ni Xylem dahil kanina pa ako nakatulala. I felt uneasy because of what I've seen.

I saw some police taking the dead body away from the crime scene. I'm still confused that I don't remember anything about that night.

Siguro namamalik-mata lang ako kanina. Wala akong maalala kagabi. Bigla kong naisip ang pinag-usapan namin ni Mobius. Sure I was annoyed by his presence kagabi but I couldn't imagine na magiging gano'n ang sasapitin nya. Besides, sobrang brutal ng pagkakapatay kay Mobius.
 
"Okay ka lang? Hindi ka kumain kaninang breakfast, gutom ka na ba?" tanong ni Xylem saakin. Nandito sya ngayon sa classroom ko dahil hindi raw sya mapakali na hindi ako nagbreakfast kanina.

Of course, who would have the apetite after seeing someone being brutally killed with his intestines coming out? that's unappetizing to see obviously.

"Banana and bread gusto mo?" she offered me a snack. Kababalik nya lang galing sa cafeteria and she said she ordered me those dahil hindi ako kumain kanina.

I didn't hesitate to accept what she offered. I don't want her to feel bad if I ignore what she offered kahit na wala akong gana. 

"Iniisip mo ba 'yong nakita mo kanina Flarie?" nag-aalalang tanong saakin ni Xylem. Bahagya lang akong tumango bilang sagot.

I can't help it. I feel guilty for being annoyed by his presence kagabi. Now that he's gone, I know that scenario will be haunting me always.

"You need to be strong here Solar. Life is an obstacle and you have to live,"

I remembered what he said last night. That was the most serious conversation he had with me. Sobrang pilyo nya kaya naman I mistook it as one of his pranks again. I didn't know that was the last.

It's the end of our class kaya nagdecide akong pumunta muna sa rooftop. Unlike me, lahat ng mga estudyante ngayon ay sa cafeteria na dumiretso dahil lunch na ngayon. Xylem invited me to join her but I refused.

I roamed my eyes around the school, examining everyone's move and I didn't notice something suspicious. Andoon parin yung mga kunwaring nagtatapang-tapangan to look superior. This school is really a mess. Walang values na tinuturong subject dito and it's your choice kung anong ugali ang gusto mo. Of course guidance office is just a temporary place for imprisonment kaya naman hindi sila nababahala kapag ipinapasok sila sa silid na 'yon.

Syempre kung may nagtatapang-tapangan, meron ding takot na takot. Fear is what driving other people to not have the courage to fight. Akala nila ayos lang na hindi sila lumaban but the truth is fighting for what's right is actually the best weapon a person may have.

At dahil nga dorm school ito, hindi masyadong involve ang mga magulang at estado ng buhay nila rito. Here you'll not think about being poor or rich. Just be who you wanna be.

I was about to close my eyes when I suddenly felt a presence on my left side kaya naman agad akong dumilat. I could see she has this gloomy aura and was unsure of what she had decided. Sobrang kunot ang noo nya habang seryosong nakatingin sa harap.

Nilingon nya ako and damn! She caught me staring at her. I let an awkward smile at parang walang nangyari na binalik ang tingin ko sa harapan. I was nervous of her serious face.
