"Bruh, do you think Josiah will tail behind us?" Lucas asked. Nagsisigarilyo ito.
"I dont think so." Gazchela shrugged. "I'm going to beat his ass once he followed. We already talked about it and he agreed."
Natawa si Lucas. "I guess the beating would come to reality."
Sumulyap ito sa side mirror—kanina niya pa napapansing may nakasunod sakanila. May mga motor na nakasunod sakanila at isang kotse sa likod.
Inilabas ni Lucas ang ulo pero agad ding ipinasok pabalik pagkatapos siyang asintahin ng naka-motor.
Natawa si Gazchela. "Oh? Sina Josiah ba?"
"Damn gago! It's them." Humalakhak si Lucas dahil mali pala siya, natutunugan yatang mga demonyo. "I thought it was them, you know t's kinda doubtful na hindi susunod kasi rito si Josiah."
Gazchela chuckled and stepped on the acceleration even more. "Yeah, I can't argue with that."
Gunshots after gunshots. Lucas and Gazchela planned to escape and hide in the dark. They made a turn and automatically jumped out from the car.
Nahulog silang dalawa sa bangin at nagpagulong gulong pababa. Lucas was groaning in pain while Gazchela is just chilling not even saying a word—she doesn't feel anything at all.
Both of them stopped from rotating when they're hit on a big rock preventing them to fall on the bridge.
"Tang ina." Pagmumura ni Lucas. Agad siyang tumayo kahit nananakit. Agaran niyang pinuntahan si Gazchela na nakaupo lang at nakasandal sa bato.
"Hey!" Bahagyang tinapik ni Lucas ang pisnge ni Gazchela kaya napatingin rin ito sakanya. "Let me check you."
Kinuha nito ang maliit na flashlight sa bulsa at inilawan si Gazchela. Maraming bangas si Gazchela, may mga sugat rin pero hindi malala.
"I guess I'm fine. I can't even feel anything." Ngumisi si Gazchela
"Siraulo ka ba?" Lucas hissed. "Malamang wala ka talagang nararamdaman."
Natawa lang si Gazchela.
Naupo si Lucas sa harapan ni Gazchela. "Pasan. We don't know if you have broken bones."
"E ikaw?"
"I'm fine. My heart is only broken at the moment."
"Yan, one night stand pa." Gazchela chuckled and ride on Lucas back.
"Yang kaibigan mong karera ng karera ang sama ng ugali." Ani Lucas, sa kotse pa lang kinukwento niya kay Gazchela ang naging date at one night stand nila ni Racer—where Racer really left him after saying last night na magde-date pa sila sa umaga.
Lucas walked through the woods, nang makababa sila sa bridge saktong may dumaang nagta-tricycle kaya pinarahan niya.
"Is that how you ride tricycle?" Gazchela asked in confusion.
"Yeah. Parahan mo tapos sabihin mo kung saang lugar ka."
Napatango si Gazchela at pinagmasdan ang tricycle.
"Saan kayo hijo?" Tanong ng driver. Sinagot rin naman agad ni Lucas. "Aba, ang layo nun rito. Dalawang oras pa bago makarating doon."
