In The Name of The Full Moon

Chapter 1

Funtallia's POV

14 years ago...

I've been looking at my window for hours, the moon had risen.
The moon is my one and only friend.
A friend who I can always rely on and a friend who'll never ever gonna leave me.

"Luna, I don't know what will happen to me without you."

"Psst!"

"Who is it?" I looked around, wala namang tao.

Does the moon know how to speak now? No, no. That's impossible.

A cold wind blew, I began to tremble. Tonight's atmosphere was different from the other nights that I stayed late. I was going to close the window but, the thing is I can't close it kasi napalaki yung bukas ko sa window. I can't reach it.

"Psst!"

"Who is this disturbing animal?" I said while looking around, once again. I'm having a moment here. Ugh! Saan ba nagtatago yung maingay na yun.

"Hello!"

"AHHHHHHH!" I screamed. Who is this guy in front of my window. He startled me!

Is this a Romeo & Juliet story where Romeo climbed Juliet's balcony just to see her? How cheesy! But in my case, it's window not balcony.

I got up immediately and turned on my lights, then I grabbed my baseball bat beside my door. This is what we called self-defense in case magkaroon ng upcoming danger. Thanks Dad for teaching me.

"Who are you?" I said while holding the baseball bat tightly.

"Hey, calm down. Don't hurt me." He said habang pumapasok sa kwarto ko from my window. He's acting like he owned my room.

"Are you not scared of my bat?" He chuckled so I glared at him. He suddenly put his hands up.

"Put it down." He said with a low tone.

"I'll ask you one more time, who are you?"

"I am... who I am."

Napamilog ako ng bibig. This guy must be kidding me, huh? He's soooo annoying! I'm asking a decent question here. Mukha ba akong nakikipaglokohan? I tapped my bat on my left hand while walking towards him. I'm about fake swing my bat when he suddenly talk.

"A-Alright, alright. I'll say my name." Tinaas nya yung both hands nya habang nakapikit yung isa nyang mata. Takot.

"If I lose my patience, I'll swing this bat right now. So you better give me the information that I want as soon as possible."

"Woah, violent." He chuckled. Tinaasan ko sya ng kilay.

I don't like the way he smile, it's so annoying.

"My name is—"

"Jess! Nasaan nanaman ba tong batang toh." Sigaw ng isang babae sa labas.

"Who is this Jess?" I said while still holding my bat. Napatingin ako sa harapan ko. "So, you're Jess." I smirked.

"Kung anong binabalak mo, wag mo nang ituloy."

"What?"

"If whatever is your balak— wait, sandali. Wag mo akong i-pressure." He said while looking at the ceiling and talking to his self. This guy is weird, wait na nga sandali pa.

"Okay?" Confused kong sagot.

"Jess, gabi na! Where are you, anak!"

Tumayo ako sa bintana and I'm about to scream something when this guy named Jess pulled me. I'm now on the top of him, and it's my first time seeing his face this close. He's face is decent okay, the eyes it's beautiful— ano bang sinasabi ko? I'm about to stand, but he hugged me AGAIN.
