"Hays. After Tuesday, even calendar says WTF." I said.

"I would never date a white-haired-girl looking like a granny like you." Sabi ng isang lalaki kay Lauren. Napatayo naman kami nang makita namin siya.

"Hmm. What makes you think she wants to date you in the first place?" Sambit naman ni Ken nang makalapit siya sakanila.

"Yeah. What makes you think she would date someone looking like a big bulky-ass-stupid-jerk with a small head dolt that looks like gonna be my next funeral visit?" Dagdag ni Sam.

"Becareful who you're messing." Ani naman ni Wil.

"Get out of our sight, dude. Your existence makes me want to puke." Wika ni John na wala sa mood.

Pagkaalis ng lalaki ay nagpasalamat si Lauren sakanila.

"Awww. Thank you. You guys are awesome."

"You're welcome. But that's not for free. That cost a hundred pesos." Sabi ni Sam. Bumalik naman na kaming lahat sa pwesto namin kanina.

"Do you guys remember the Dark Writer I told you before?" Tanong ni Sam.

Nandito kami ngayon sa convenient store dahil napagusapan namin na sabay-sabay na kaming gagawa ng activities or projects para sa paghahabol namin. Para na rin makapag review na kami para sa nalalapit na finals.

Pag natapos itong finals ay bakasyon na namin. Pero sakanila Sam ay hindi dahil training nila sa chess.

"Yeah, I remember him. Why?" Tanong ni Lauren.

"God! You won't believe what I've found out about his past."

"He was raped by his cousins and aunties when he was 12-16 years old. And when he was a kid, he was used to be beaten up by his mother and father. His siblings used to bully him as well as his friends."

"And all of his relatives when he told him what they've been doing to him, they didn't believed him. That's why he took revenge to them."

"That's awful." Sambit ni Pat.

"Yeah. And you guys remember the boy who reported that his uncle was murdered on his chair?" Tanong niya ulit.

"It was the guy near their house. He was always sitting on his chair, beside the window, because he was looking to the guy's house. Because their adopted daughter is his daughter."

"His wife thought he was crazy that's why he left him. And their only daughter.... she sold her to that guy."

"That guy, the one who murdered him, thought he and his wife are having an affair that's why he killed him. But the truth is he was just looking at his daughter."

"He wasn't able to go near to her daughter because of his illness."

"What's his illness?" Tanong ni Pat.

"He has a schizophrenia."

"Schi-what? What is that mean?" Tanong ko dahil sa kakyuryosan. Hindi ako masyado nakikinig sakaniya sa tuwing ito ang mga sinasabi niya, pero itong sinasabi niyang ito ay nakuha ng aking atensyon.

Marahil ay tungkol sa tatay ang usapan.

Alam ko sa sarili kong hindi pa rin ako moved on sa pagkamatay ni daddy o ng tungkol sa pagitan namin. Ni hindi ako nakapag labas ng sama ng loob ko sakanila, kaya alam kong hindi pa talaga ako matatahimik.

"Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder. People who has this interpret reality abnormally." Diretsong sagot ni Sam.

"It is a breakdown in the relation between conception, emotion, and behavior of a person, that leads to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation." Pat explained.
