YS1: Yesterday's Torment ✔️

IV. BATRACHOTOXIN

Chapter 4

@PTWP | Tuesday, January 31, 2017 | 7:43 PM.

AS THE night came, we immediately changed our clothes in something that is way better and formal. I asked for a red smock dress and Shantelle gave it to me gladly.

We were on the day to the said venue-PTWP or Purple Thomas Wedding Party. The plan was to meet those three people. Old man said that I should be the one who represent him, in some other term, I'll be his shadow and pretend that he couldn't come yet he sent one person who'll be his representative. And that's me; one of our tactic to obtain my mission-to meet them.

My gaze went down to the radio.

JUST IN: Batrachotoxin, one of the most powerful neurotoxins in the world and an extremely poisonous alkaloid found on the skin of tiny poison dart frogs killed two dozen of people in South America. Since no antidote is known and death comes rapidly, no one survived the said butchery.

Just in? Killing people nowadays has really no time and date. Napailing ako. I closed the radio and rested my head at the head rest. I'm kind of sleepy.

"People people people," I heard Tyron mumbled while shaking his head. He will accompany me to the venue so he was the one who drove the car.

"Witch, wake up." I opened my eyes. Inaalog ako ni Tyron para magising. I roamed my gaze outside and maybe, this is the venue.

Or so it seems.

I shook my head and fixed myself. "Correction." Saad ko bago humarap sa kaniya. He frowned at me kaya hindi ko na natuloy. "Oh shut up. I'm immune to that. Correction, a gorgeous, sexy and hot witch. Polish your references." He mimicked me. We both chuckled.

"Better fix your ass up and attend the venue. Huwag mo ng dagdagan ng malamig na hangin ang malamig na gabi," pinitik ko ang noo nito. "Asshole. I am 2 minute and 13 seconds older than you," he just rolled his eyes to me bago binuksan ang pinto ng sasakyan.

"Go. I'm going to take a nap." He winked at me and mouthed good luck. Sinarado ko na ang pintuan at saka bumuntong hininga. There is this sensation that tickles me.

I shrugged my shoulder before showing my invitation card to the guard. Elegant, huh. He smiled at me, he opened the door while gesturing his hand. I nodded at him then entered the venue. A cold dim room welcomed me. There's a lot of people in different ways. Maybe, the party had started and I was late.

I wandered my stare and it stopped to the two person who are clinging at each other. They were in their white outfit, the boy's hand was encircled at the girl's waist. I squinted my eyes to see clearly if they were the new-wedded.

Perfect. I mentally smiled. Exactly those two that the picture shown by old man.

Someone... no, the presence was not for one person only. One of those people opposed my shoulder.

"OHEMJI. OHEMJI! Erp, I am genuinely sorry. I was too excited that I didn't sawn you. I am sorry," paumanhin nito saka yumuko. Nasa harapan ko sila and I was right, hindi lang isa, kung hindi tatlo. Hindi ko pinansin ang pagtawag sa akin nito ng erp.

"It's alright. Just be careful next time," I smiled a little para namang sabihin na sincere ako. And I was really sincere saying that, hindi lang halata. The apology that the girl told me was sincere too. She really was excited. "Thank you for understanding! Mauna na kami. Enjoy!" hindi na lang ako sumagot. I didn't see the two people face but I could conclude that they are male. Those two had a broad shoulder unlike sa babaeng kasama nila.

I searched for a vacant table and I found one near at the couple. The event has this round tables at the back, space in the middle and long tables at the side. Purple ang ilaw and in the middle, there is this long light that I can assume a colorless light or in short, a white. The normal bulb. I don't know about those so I just sat.
