Chapter 5

Kursk

"Hey man! Ang tagal mo diyan sa C.R.! Natatae na ako rito!" sigaw ni Lynch mula sa labas. "Hoy! Baka nag-jug-jug ka na diyan ah! Tirik na tirik ang araw oy! Mamaya na 'yan!"

Bam! Bam! Bam!

Shit. He's been banging my bathroom door for minutes now. Argh.

"Kursk pare! Kakarating lang namin tapos ginaganyan mo kami!"

I clenched my fist in irritation and shouted.

"Fuck you two! Why the fuck did you even come here?!" I frowned when they didn't answer. Those retards... They're really testing my patience! Nagmadali ako sa pagtapis ng tuwalya sa bewang ko at padabog na tinungo ang pinto. The door banged when I immediately opened it. "Lynch! Theos! You better ready your explanation, you fuckheads!"

"Chill lang bro! Nanonood lang kami ng T.V. dito," sabi ng siraulong si Lynch na para bang hindi niya halos nagiba yung pinto ng C.R. ko. "Ini-entertain kami nitong palabas. Buti pa 'to marunong mag-entertain ng guests." Kinlaro pa nito ang huling salita bago kumain ng popcorn.

I ruffled my hair and stared at the two assholes that are now busy discussing their ideas about the plot twist of the movie they were watching.

"Walder is the killer," I deadpanned and the two of them gasped. Napatingin silang dalawa sa akin na para bang hindi makapaniwala. "What?"

Dumilim ang mukha ni Lynch at padabog na kumain ng popcorn habang nagmumura. Theos on the other hand laughed hysterically and got the remote. Tinapon nito ang bagay sa direksyon ko kaya napaismid ako at umilag.

"Death to spoilers!" sigaw ng walanghiya at kumain ulit ng popcorn bago tumingin nang masama sa movie. "Death!"

I groaned and scanned the living room before a pair of heels caught my eyes. I actually got that inside the elevator and the front of the reception desk days ago. I even checked the CCTV cameras to find the owner and fate's really playing with me. It was that weird lady.

I remembered her wearing a red bikini inside the elevator an hour ago. She was even barefooted and she was absentmindedly carrying sand all over the hotel.

Wala sa sarili akong natawa kaya muli silang tumingin sa akin na para bang nakakita sila ng multo.

"Did you—oh shit!" ani Lynch kahit may mga popcorn pa sa bibig. May ilan pang nahulog nang eksaherado itong napamura. "Tangina! Tumawa ba talaga si Kursk, Theos? Ako ba ay nanaginip, ma friend?"

Theos was so still I would take him for a wax figure. Natawa ako ulit dahil sa naiisip.

"Fuck," ani Theos at napanganga. "He actually laughed again!" Nilabas nito ang phone at itinutok sa akin. "Oh shit! Legit!" sabi nito. "I gotta send this to the others!"

"I kenat..." mumbled Lynch and asked, "Kursk, man. Are you well?"

Hindi ko na lang sila pinansin at tumungo na sa kwarto ko. I spotted a greyish blue button shirt and black pants then immediately changed. Nag-spray din ako ng perfume bago sinuklay-suklay ang buhok ko.

"Kita niyo 'yon guys, there's really something fishy here." I looked towards the doorway and spotted the two bastards with their phones. Sumimangot na lang ako. Halata namang nag-v-video call sila kasama yung iba pa naming katropa. "See? He didn't snap at us! Something's up boys! I think it's his cock!"

Oh fuck. Mababaliw na ako sa kabaliwan ng mga 'to.

"And here we are, ma friends. First time na nagpapagwapo si baby Kursk natin."
