LUA'S POV

"Have you heard the news about what happened to Maya Rodriguez from Grade 10-A? Gosh! I cannot! She's so young to do that!" I heard Beatrice talking about Maya.

"What happened daw to her?" biglang sambit ni Adhara.

"She committed suicide yesterday because of bullying from her former classmates from another school daw. Hindi niya siguro kinaya kaya umabot sa ganu'ng sitwasyon!" pahayag nito.

"Taga-saang school naman daw iyong naging mga bullies niya?" pagtatanong ni Nash.

"Alave University Avenue." banggit ni Axel.

"Ilan daw silang naging bullies?" tanong ni Elara.

"Three girl bullies." tugon ni Lizzie.

Nananahimik lang ako habang nakikinig sa usapan nila. Dumating ang teacher namin sa oras na iyon at ipinaalam sa amin ang totoong nangyari kay Maya kung bakit siya nagsuicide sa isang abandonadong building.

"Class, our academy received bad news from Maya's family about what happened to her yesterday. About Maya Rodriguez of Grade 10-A." ani Miss Charlotte.

Tumahimik kaming lahat dahil alam na namin ang tinutukoy niya.

"Yesterday, around 11 pm in the abandoned building, they found a lifeless body of a girl wearing our school uniform. From the autopsy, they said that this girl committed suicide by falling from the 4th floor of the building. They also found a suicide note from her notebook in her bag saying that...

I choose to kill myself rather than conquer my fears of  those bullies every single day. I can't handle it anymore. I'm sorry for everything.

I love you, Ma and Pa. Goodbye.

Love, Maya.

–Additional information about her autopsy report, they found out a long scar on her chest, bruises on her back, and deep wounds on her forehead. The inspectors said that there was someone hits her before her suicide. According to her parents, two weeks ago, they always caught Maya holding a paper cutter or any sharp things, sleeping pills, and setting up her death. They tried to go to psychiatrists, but Maya refused it. Until yesterday, she didn't come home. Someone from a nearby subdivision saw Maya's body on the ground. He tried to help her and call an ambulance, but she was already found dead by the time he saw her there. And early this morning, Mr. and Mrs. Rodriguez told the Dean about what happened to their daughter. Our academy will send our deepest condolences to her family. You can go to her last night because her first two nights will be for her family and relatives. That's all, take this day as your free day. Good day, class!" paalam ni ma'am Charlotte sa amin saka lumabas ng classroom.

"They need to pay for this. They need to pay what they've done to Maya." bulong ko sa sarili ko.

"Do you really have to go there and disguise as someone who will be got bullied, love?" pagtatanong ni Polar habang nakaupo sa kama ko.

"Revenge is revenge. Those bullies need to pay for what they did to Maya. I can't stay here without doing anything for those bullies who sent her to death. They were the reason why she committed suicide. This is the only thing I know to make Maya rest in peace now, Polar." seryosong pahayag ko.

"Can I join with that? I'm worried about you. Ikaw na naman ang magiging bitag sa gagawin niyo." He asked.

"No. We, girls, can handle this. Don't worry about us because we will be fine. Just stay in the academy and report those problems, if any. Okay? Don't worry about me, I'll be back soon." marahang tugon ko rito.
