ARANYA

As I enter my apartment, I immediately took 1 unused notebook from my backpack and started fulfilling my plan. If I can't take Harman down by force, I will take them down with my pen. Dr. Jose Rizal used the same way to free our country from the Spanish colonization then I will write for my own independence to free myself from this school. I may not get the same popularity but I can still prevent things to happen to others as well.

I tried to think of a title but then I realized, I don't need to make it that complicated. The only purpose of this journal is exposure.

A School and A Thousand Demons

The title explains it all. I am inside a prestigious popular school full of demon alike students. All are hungry for blood and violence like monsters in the dark. Merciless. Cold.

I was about to start thinking of how am I going to start the book but then I remembered how I got here. And then Seth came to the picture including the guys. I remembered how they treated me in my first day of school. How they protected and welcomed me despite the anger I felt towards them. Yes they showed kindness even there are still flaws. Yes they never did something I might hate. They showed respect and concern.

But I have to think of my life and the life of others if Harman remains open. If no one will take action to turn this school to the police then I will. After all, they are still criminals. No one can change the fact that they did a great sin. I just have to act tougher and stop letting myself getting deceived by their actions. Because behind those actions are wolves hiding inside their sheep clothing.

With that thought, I started writing the pilot of my book.

Day 1

It all started when I fell in love with the wrong person. When my heart first skipped a beat. When my lungs stopped breathing for a second. That day I didn't realized I fell into a deadly trap. I just found myself entering something I never thought will lead to a dangerous journey.

A school colored with nothing but black, an exact symbolization of how dark their secrets can be. Their evil creeps in every wall but its name sounds innocent and mysterious.

Harman University. A school caging a hundred demons inside it. And with them there's me, stuck and forced to be with them as a consequence for my stupidity in believing that love can be found inside this place.

There was no love. Just pure hate.

Napabalikwas ako nang makarinig ako nang malakas na tunog ng kampana kaya't agad akong napabalikwas.

"You only have 15 minutes to fix yourself Ms. Ara. You can't be late nor be absent unless you have a valid reason."

It was Ms. Claudine holding a little bell and shaking them to wake me up while holding her clipboard. Matamang nakatingin ito sa akin habang ako itong panay ang kusot sa pumipikit ko pang mga mata. Looks like I woke up late this time.

"S-Sorry po. Saglit lang ma'am." I apologized with my rusty voice as I drop both of my feet to the ground and then I left the bed. Plano ko sanang ayusin na lamang iyon pagkatapos ng klase pero laking gulat ko nang si ma'am Claudine na ang nag-ayos.

"Your breakfast is in the table so eat at least 1 sandwhich before taking a bath." Utos nito habang inaayos ang pagkakalatag ng makapal na kumot sa kama. Ako naman itong nahihiwagaang nakatingin pa rin sa kanya kahit pa sinabi niyang kailangan ko nang magmadali. Gumalaw lang ako nang nilingon niya ako't pinaningkitan.
