Prologue

Camera clicks, heavy foot steps, barricades, police men. Ito ang mga bumungad sa akin pagkalabas na pagkalabas ko mula sa elevator. Every corner of the ground floor of this building was full of people gossiping, police and other investigators.

Ang exact din na lugar na pinangyarihan nang krimen ay nakabarikada na at nililimitahan lang ang pumapasok.

Everyone is became anxious about what happened here yesterday. Sino nga kasing mag-aakala na ang prestihiyosong building na ito ay meron pang krimen na magaganap? I mean, this great ORCHARD PALACE has a record of heinous crime and nobody has an idea kung sino ang gumawa noon dito.

It could be a resident here because  outsiders are highly prohibited here. The security here was also strict kaya kung sino man ang dapat imbestigahan at sisihin, 'yon ay ang mga taong nakatira rito.

"Ano bang nangyari dito?" someone asked, also a resident here in Orchard Palace.

I was just passed by them at hindi na ako nag-abala pang pakinggan 'yon dahil alam ko na ang nangyari.

A mid-40 man was stabbed multiple times in different part of his body including the chest, neck and head. The man  has also a long cut on his tummy which made him die mercilessly. His body was found at the storage room of this floor.

That was an autopsy report made by the Forensic Team, ang hiwa daw sa tiyan nang lalaking 'yon ay sadyang ginawa para raw makuha ang memory card na nilunok daw nito. It somehow gives me a shivering feeling. That's so cruel and inhumane, para bang hindi tao ang ginawan nila nang ganoong klaseng bagay. They are all evil disguised in a human body.

In the middle of pondering, my phone vibrated. It is a notification from a live press conference of Andrada Clan explaining the issue regarding on the Orchard Palace- murder incident. My family owns this building not only this building but almost all  of the infrastructures of Bhelletaine that's why they were required to explain and give some details or information regarding on every issues that our family involved to. They are scared of controversies so they are trying their ass off to save our family's reputation.

I just rolled my eyes and turned off my phone for good. From the very beginning, they were not good to me, only my grandparents who took care of me like their own child, like their family and home but when they both died everything's turned upside down. My relatives didn't treated me well. They were all aloof and I'm an outcast to my own family. That's makes me saddens all the time.

I still managed to walk outside and headed to the parking lot. Kahit na hindi ganoon kaganda ang trato nang pamilya sa akin, they still providing my everyday needs. Hindi lang talaga nila ako pinapaattend sa mga family celebrations or gatherings, pinapa- attend man pero they only treat me like I'm not welcome.

I started driving, ngayon ang schedule nang bisita ko sa pinakaiisa kong pamilya. He's my younger sibling, he was not a normal kid like we used to see, He requires special needs kaya hindi matanggap-tanggap nang Andrada clan ang kapatid ko dahil sa condition niyang 'yon kaya pinatapon nila ito sa Psychiatric Hospital. Like what I said, My family is allergic with controversies so if the family do have a flaw or imperfections they will get rid of it as soon as possible at yun nga ang ginawa nila sa kapatid ko. They will never let someone or something ruined their image and reputation.

My journey was almost an hour. Agad kong pinark ang sasakyan ko sa parking space nang hospital na ito. Agad ko ring kinuha ang mga pasalubong ko sa kapatid ko at sa mga staffs nang mga hospital mula sa trunk nang sasakyan ko.

Peace and Hope Psychiatric Hospital

Binati at nginitian ako nang ilang mga nurses at ganon din ako sa kanila. Halos lahat ata nang mga staffs dito ay kilala ko na dahil lagi akong nadalaw rito dahil sa aking kapatid. I also gave something to them, some goods and fruits for compensation para sa pag-aalaga nila sa kapatid ko 24/7. They deserve treats as well!
