She can see people's auras . . .
"The red light flashed on her face means affection."
He can taste words . . .
"He's lying!"
And she can feel what others feel...

BLAISE
Natigalgal si Helfrich at nag-igting ang panga niya. "What are you implying? Na tatakas ako? Are you nuts? Ano naman ang tatakasan—"
"The truth!" I shouted, cutting her words short. "I hate to burst your bubble, but that's never going to happen. You can't hide the truth forever, Hel."
I saw how pissed Helfrich was.
"Ano'ng nangyari?"
Naantala ang pag-uusap namin nang biglang bumangon si Jan Louis Reeves mula sa pagkakahiga roon sa upuang nasa bandang hulihan. He stretched his arms then yawned.
"Hoy! Kanina ka pa ba riyan?" Delaney asked with her forehead creased.
Louis nodded then finally stood up. He then cast a glance at his wristwatch. "Yup. I've been sleeping here for almost an hour. Ang tagal niyo naman kasi, eh. So, ano'ng pag-uusapan natin, Ms. President?" tanong niya.
"And now the players are complete," I annunciated while looking at them one by one. "Let the game of truth begin . . ."
Delaney arched a brow. "Blaise, what's this?"
Barry and Helfrich chuckled.
Louis and Harith was maintaining a calm facade.
While Emery was smirking.
For a split second, naalala ko 'yong nakasulat sa notebook ni Kavin. Ang listahan ng kaniyang mga pinaghihinalaan. Marahil ay balak na niya 'yong ipagbigay-alam sa amin no'ng araw na magkikita kami rito sa auditorium subalit naudlot nga lang dahil umeksena si S.
I smirked. "First, Barrixto Rey—"
"Puwede bang 'wag mo 'kong tawagin sa real name ko?" angal pa niya.
"Kung hindi mo kayang sabihin kay Emery. Pwes, ako na ang magsasabi sa kaniya, Barrixto!" wika ko, ignoring what he requested earlier.
"W-What? Y-You know?" he uttered, stammering.
Tanging pagtango lang ang naging tugon ko.
"Ano'ng dapat kong malaman, Blaise?" kunot-noong tanong ni Emery.
"That Barry is into you," I replied without hesitation.
I'm pretty certain that Barry likes her the moment I've seen the red light that flashed on his face back there at comfort room. Sa tingin ko rin ay kaya niya ginalit si Davis ay para siraan ito. Gusto niyang palabasin na masama si Davis. It's his tactic to win Emery's heart.
Emery turned her gaze at Barry. "What? You're into me?" 'di makapaniwalang wika niya. "Barry, alam kong alam mo na short-tempered 'yong tao. Na may problema si Davis—anger management problem to be specific. Kaya mo ba ginalit si Davis? Siniraan mo lang ba siya para mapunta ako sa 'yo?" she asked, tears were building up in her eyes.
