CHAPTER 4: Morir

Chapter 4: Morir

Hindi ko alam kung paano at bakit nila naisip na magkaroon ng ganitong rule. Rule for every break time we should go there, eat or do stuff?? Seriously??.

"You should ask him if you want". Rinig kong sabi ni Celestia.

"Bakit kasi?". Hindi ko na tinuloy ang sasabihin ko at hinintay na lang si harvey na bumalik. He volunteer to get snacks for us. Katapat ko lamang na upuan si Celestia while that Tristan is standing on the door facing outside.

Di ko alam kung anong iniisip niya dahil tila malalim ito,parang nakatingin sa kawalan. Iwinaksi ko iyon sa aking isipan at subukang libangin ang sarili. Tumayo ako at pumunta sa likod kung saan doon nakaimbak ang iilang mga libro. Sinubukan kong kumuha ng isa pero sobrang maalikabok talaga.

"If i were you, don't try, too much dust there baka hikain ka pa". Celestia commented.

"Okay lang ako." I reply back. Tinignan ko isa-isa ang mga libro and there's one book caught my attention.

"The police sealed the area, they said it was a suicide".

I suddenly turn to her bago ko huling sinulyapan ang libro. "What? A suicide? How it happened?." While i was walking back to the couch.

"They found a suicidal note at her room maybe they used it as a evidence".

"How it possible? Diba natagpuan siyang may dugo sa likod ng ulo? Paano naman siya magpapakamatay sa ganong sitwasyon?".

"I think so,".

"I should do something on it, i have to find a much strong evidence to prove that it was not a suici-".

"Then what? What crime do you prefer? A murder? Homicide?". He then said without looking back. It feels like whenever i was talking to him there is a heavy feeling that i can't explain.

"What are you trying to say? That this is not a crime?".

"I didn't say anything".

I shut my mouth bago pa tuluyang may masabi akong hindi maganda. Wala din naman tong patutunguhan. Hinintay ko na lamang si Harvey makarating dito, teka? Bakit ang tagal nun?

"Shit!". We heard a loud voice coming here. Dali-dali akong nagtungo kung saan at tumambad Ang taong hinahanap ko kanina lang.

"Harvey?". I called. Agad siyang tumingin sa direksyon ko sabay ngumiti.

"Ohh, beshh".

"Did something wrong? Bakit Ang tagal mo? kanina ka pa Namin hinihintay". I asked. Tinulungan ko Siya sa dala-dala niyang mga pagkain pati na Rin Yung pagkain ko ako na Ang nagbitbit.

"No, Wala Naman". Sagot Niya. Pumasok na kami sa loob. Inilagay na Namin Ang pagkain sa lamesa. Umupo na Rin ako katapat ni Celestia. She was busy scrolling on her phone while Tristan is still in the door.

"Bakit Ang tagal mo? Malapit lang Naman Ang cafeteria Dito eh". I asked.

"I've got a new information". He said na siyang nagpa-angat Ng tingin naming tatlo sa kanya. "About the case".

"What case? We haven't hold a case as far as I know". Tristan commented.

"We have, and I'm sure nasabi na Rin to ni Celestia sa inyo about sa suicide note". I started eating my lunch while listening to him.

"Yeah, gotten more?". Celestia added.

"Yes, nakausap ko Yung friend Niya na lumapit sa atin kahapon". Pakiramdam ko iBang Harvey Yung nasa harapan ko, it seems like he is very serious about this thing.
