Khalil Spinel Evangelista's P.O.V.

It happened too fast.

No one expected it. Samuel is still a mess until now, katana and crimson refuse to talk to anyone aside from amber.

They look dead. Its as if they died the moment that amaris did.

It was frustrating to not be able to do anything for them, for her.

God im fucking pathetic.

Sir kalen stood infront of the class... today will be the last mourning day . His seventh day.

Walang klase but every stood went back to school to pay respect for him.

"Today will mark the day of us losing a friend, a brother, a..." he took a shaky breath before continuing, pain evident in his voice "... no, we lost my bond son and i know its painful...its unreal and its hard to accept this fact but amaris for sure will---"

Naputol ang sasabihin niya ng tumayo si katana creating a loud noise as the feet of her chair screech on the floor.

Walang sabi sabi ay lumabas siya, not hurriedly. She walk camly, face blank and emotionless and thats even more scary. Its as if she's soulless.

My heart fall down my stomach as my feet and my whole body itch to stand up and follow her, hug her and comfort her.

But like a magnet crimson was fast to follow after her.

Alam kong magkaibigan sila at alam kong at this very moment they needed each other but i cant help but to be jealous, not that romantic jealous type of thing but that thing where you wish na sana kaya mo din yun, i wish i was there beside her too.

"Tomorrow everything will go back to normal. The result of the competitions are already posted on the announcement board, sad to say that we didnt win any gold medals but our juniors did what they can do and for that it still should be celebrated..." i started to zone out as sir kalen continue giving instructions of what we'll need to do tomorrow.

My thoughts elsewhere.

After a long speech he dismissed us and i was torn between finding katana or staying with samuel.

I chose the latter, katana already have crimson while samuel have no one aside from me.

Sinamahan ko siya sa dorm room namin like i've been doing for the past six days, minsan naguusap kami minsan hindi. It became a routine now....

But today it will be different cause as of then moment he looks at me, really looked at me.

"Puntahan mo siya" kumunot ang noo ko sa sinabi niya.

What does he mean?

"Go to her before its too late khalil wag ka gumaya sakin" seryoso at malamig niyang sagot.

I was stunned but at the same time i felt pity for him, i know he hates being pitied but i just cant help it, ayoko man initial reaction na yun.

"Wag mo ko kaawaan, ill be alright khal it might not be now pero magiging ayos lang ako, amaris wouldn't want to see me moping around for too long kaya sige na puntahan mo na siya she needs you more than i do" mahaba niyang saad habang taimtim na nakatitig sakin.
