Chapter 11

Chapter 11: Favor

MAXHIONE almost forgot the thing that she needed to do. She secretly bought some meats in the canteen to give it in the beast she was eyeing. So far so good. Hindi pa naman nalalaman ng halimaw na siya ang pasikretong pumupunta sa lungga nito para dalhan ito ng pagkain. The baby cub is doing fine too. Masigla na ito at minsan pa nga'y nakikita niya itong naglalakad. She was truly happy knowing that and now, she's buying meats for those beast.

Malaki naman ang allowance nila sa eskwelahang ito tsaka may naiwan pa siyang ginto at pilak galing sa kanyang Nanay Aurora. The meats only cost five silver and that's a fine price. Hindi naman agad mauubos ang pera niya pero ang tindera sa canteen ay masyado ng nagtataka dahil sa dami ng pinamili niya. 

She was doing it when it almost at peak. When the students were completely sleeping so that no one can see what she was doing. Patalon-talon na naglakad siya patungo sa kanyang dorm para magpakita kay Shahira. Iniwan niya muna sa canteen ang pinamili dahil hindi naman niya pwedeng dalhin ito sa kanyang dorm dahil alam niyang magtataka lang si Shahira kung bigla na naman itong mawawala.

And she can't lie to her anymore. She've been good to her and she can't stand lying to her again.

"Ayos ka na ba?" Tanong nito nang matapos siya sa paghihis. The latter was preparing for their dinner and she mouthed thanks because of it.

"So far so good. Maayos naman na ako."

Shahira smiled gently. "mabuti naman kung gano'n. You've been staring blankly before then silently cried. Natatakot tuloy ako kung ano na ang nangyari sa'yo."

"I'm all good. Don't worry." Kinindatan pa niya ito at nag thumbs up para hindi na ito mas mag-alala pa.

Inasikaso siya ng huli na hinayaan lang niya dahil kahit sawayin niya ito ay hindi naman ito papayag. She just said thanks to her and the latter just smiled. Muli ay nanumbalik sa isip niya ang lahat ng nangyari. Shahira was right. She was just staring blankly before and silently cried. But the man who said that willing to wipe her tears never leave her side. She can still clearly remember what that man said to her.

"From now on, I will watch you. Masyado kang lapitin ng kapahamakan na kailangan kang bantayan."

That's why Art was eyeing her whatever she does or wherever she goes. The guy did make sure that she's safe. Ang ginagawa nito ay nakakagaan ng loob but she didn't appreciate it before. Masyado parin siyang gulat at nasasaktan sa mga ala-alang nanumbalik mula sa nakaraan. It lasted for few days before she finally recovered. Thankfully ay nakaka fucos naman siya sa kanyang pag-aaral na isang magandang balita.

Louina explain everything to her. The ghost were doing an illusion to her. Lahat ng nakita niya nang gabing 'yon ay pawang ilusyon. Pero alam niyang totoo ang pagkawala ng minamahal niyang lolo at lola. Siguro kung hindi dumating si Art, hindi niya alam kung nandito parin ba siya ngayon at payapang kumakain kasama si Shahira o baka nasa clinic at kritikal ang kondisyon. Hindi niya alam kung paano sila natunton ni Art pero hindi na iyon mahalaga.

Ang pintuan na pinasukan niya nang gabing iyon ay sirang bintana. Mahuhulog na sana siya kung hindi lang dumating si Art. It was in the third floor and that building is freaking high. Kaya malaki ang pasasalamat niya sa lalaki pero dahil sa nangyari sa kanya ay hindi pa niya ito pormal na napasalamatan.

Her plan was all settled. Pinauna na niyang matulog si Shahira dahil alam niyang pagod ang dalaga. She did the dishes before she took a bath. Pinatuyo lang niya ang buhok bago tahimik na pumunta sa canteen na malapit lang sa kanilang building.

Iniwan ng tindera na nakabukas ang pintuan sa likod kaya malaya siyang nakapasok. After that, she lock the door from inside when she get out. Kapagkuwan ay nag teleport sa harap ng kweba na madalas niyang puntahan.
