Chapter 8. "Cynic"

"But concerning that day or that hour, no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father."
Mark 13:32

Day 2

Date: December 17, 2030

Time: 5:48 PM

Place: Makati City

            I am here all alone in the rooftop, gazing at the orange sky as the dark slowly embrace the day. I went here to think, to think about everything that I have done, and everything that happened. It's been passed hundred days since the said rapture happened. A lot of people went missing including my family. I have lived on my own since that day, living in my misery, living in a miserable world. Aside from the rapture happened, an unknown virus has spread all over the world.

            100 days after the said rapture, the Government have decided and announced to the public about their plan of bombing the entire island of Luzon. That announcement caused panic and chaos to the citizens. Riots and war were flashes in news every day. Murder not only for dead people but also for living ones happened. Just like what Chaste have said, everything is in chaos now, live or dead people, they are all enemies. It is hard to trust anyone knowing that all of us are sinners left here on Earth.

            Napabuntong-hininga ako sa bigat ng mga iniisip ko. Sa totoo lang, inilayo muna ako ni Chaste sa mga kasama niya dahil sa nangyari kanina. It seems that everyone doesn't understand me, maybe even Chaste. Sabi rin niya kanina ay post-poned din ang meeting dahil mainit pa ang ulo ng lahat dahil sa nangyari, and I admitted that it was my entire fault but it was not my intention.

            Since I have mentioned about their group, there are times that it makes me wonder who really, they are; the seven deadly sins. It was obvious that Philip don't want me and rest were hardly to trust. And I am honestly hesitated to trust even him, Chaste. And about him, it makes me wonder what is that message means.

            See you in hell, brother....

            "Brother..." mahinang sabi ko sa sarili ko.

            Napalingon naman ako nang marinig kong bumukas ang pinto. Nang makita ko kung sino ang pumasok ay napaiwas ako agad ng tingin. It was Chaste.

            I feel him walked towards my place and stopped there. "Kanina pa kita pinapanuod sa CCTV." Aniya. Hinanap ko naman kung nasaan ang CCTV dito sa rooftop. I sighed as I saw the cameras. I heard him chuckled that is why I looked at him in pissed. "Relax, minonitor lang kita. I was just afraid if you do stupid things again."

            "I am not stupid." I said and rolled my eyes.

            "I didn't call you stupid, I mean the way you think recklessly, that is what stupidity means." He explained himself. Inis akong napasinghap at tiningnan siya.
