Devil's POV:
"I am the Devil"
"Damn you!" sigaw ni Kai. Sinubukan nyang tumayo pero nabigo sya. The pain is too much for his feet to support him.
The spotlight that was cast on Kai earlier was stolen by me. I flipped my suit to make a harsh sound for my entrance. Then the crowd noticed me.
I looked at Jennie with her hand pressed against her chest. Damn! She's in danger. Then I switched my gaze to the MC's hand, the glass he's holding is just a few inches away from the table.
I fixed my hood one last time and started to move my feet. Kailangan kong bilisan. Jennie needs me. If I need to be a devil tonight, let the fires of hell burn down this place.
It pisses me off.

JENNIE'S POV:
Hindi na ako makahinga. Nagsisimula na ring manlabo ang paningin ko. Hinihingal na ako. Nararamdaman ko nang malapit na akong mawalan nang malay. Pilit kong iniipit ang dibdib ko para manatili sa katinuan. Anxiety attack.
Lisa! Save me!
Then I saw a spotlight running through the crowd. A tall figure that looks like a man in his suit is running towards me under that same light.
My heart skipped a beat.
Sinubukan ko syang titigan nang maayos. Hindi sya si Lisa. Lisa is wearing a hoodie, not a suit!
Who are you?
My mind is a mess. I can't really think straight right now. The tall figure's suit looks like a devil's cloak, sumasabay sa bawat galaw nya. Lalo lang akong nalulula. Para syang isang apparition na sumusundo saakin.
My eyes are playing tricks on me. I closed my eyes then opened it again for a clearer view. Hindi ko makita ang mukha nya pero alam kong nakatitig sya saakin.
Inihakbang nya ang mga paa nya at saglit lang ay nakita kong naakyat nya ang mini stage nang walang kahirap-hirap. Para syang anghel na nakalutang sa hangin kasabay nang kanyang itim na pakpak.
Mas bumilis ang takbo nya. Nakita kong ilang hakbang na lang ay maabot na nya ang baso.
Hindi pwede! wala pa si Lisa!
Sinubukan kong tumayo at nang akmang aabutin ko na ang baso ay agad nya itong hinawakan dahilan para mapaupo ulit ako. Bigla akong nanghina. Hindi sya dumating. She betrayed me!
Nakakasilaw ang liwanag na nakatutok sa taong alam kong magliligtas saakin pero hindi ko talaga makita ang mukha nito.
The devil raised the glass in front of me then I saw him drink from it. Natahimik ang paligid. Tanging ang paglagok lamang nya ang naririnig ko kasabay nang tibok nang puso ko.
"Aahhhhhh!" yun ang sumunod kong narinig mula sakanya. Pinahid nya muna ang bibig nya gamit ang likod nang kanyang palad. Pagkatapos ay itinaas nya ulit ang baso at inihagis ito sa sahig. Tahimik pa din ang paligid. Nakikiramdam ang lahat sa susunod nyang gagawin.
He slowly bend over his back to move closer to me. Hindi ko mawari kung marahan lang ba ang kilos nya o nag-slowmo talaga.
3 inches. .
2 inches. .
1. . .
I swallowed the lump on my throat brought by this devil's presence.
