Dorm 188 (Thomara fanfic)

Chapter 2

Dumating na ang araw na titingnan ko ung dorm na pagtutuluyan ko. Actually naging usap usapan rin sa social media lalo na sa La Salle community na may magiistay nanaman sa Dorm 188. Hindi ko ko alam lung bakit napaka big deal yun para sa kanila. Porket ba ying mga nagstay dun ay namatay at nabaliw ibig sabihin may something na dun sa room na yun? I believe na isang coincidence lang ang lahat. Well let me give you details tungkol duon sa incident. Sabi nila, 18 years ago in this exact same date. A girl died in that room. The killer was never found by the police. Para daw kasi may pumipigil sa mga tao na malaman kung sino ang may salarin. Sabi nila lahat ng nakalap na evidence ng police ay nawala. The girl was never named and was only called with the alas "VSG". She was found in the bed with many stab wounds. 8 years after that incident, someone stayed in that exact room. It was rented for a much lower price than normal rooms because of the incident. Sinasabing that person commited suicide inside the room. The authorities finding the boy hanging near the bed. In that same year naging usap usapan ang dorm na yun and may naglakas loob parin naman. Pero after a few days the new tenant was found nearly committing suicide. Buti na lang daw ay naagapan, after the incident the said tenant is still living in an asylum. After that no one even tries to rent that room. Pero hindi ako matitinag noon. 10 years siyang hindi pinansin. Well it's my time na. I'm not afraid to die. I'm not saying that I'm ready. But if ever lang. Kung oras mo na oras mo na.

After those thoughts clouded in my head I decided to turn the shower off. Since tapos na ako. Kumuha ako ng towel at nagpatuyo. Nagpunta ako in my walk-in-closet para magbihis. I decided to wear casual clothes shirt lang tapos pantalon. Wala naman talaga akong pupuntahan. I should be there at 8:00 kaya lumarga na ako since 7:00 am na. Traffic pa naman ngayon. I'm actually feeling weird today. I really don't know why. Hindi ako pinapansin ni Marra. Maaga naman daw umalis si Mom and Dad. Normally kasi sabay sabay kaming kumakain ng breakfast. I got my keys and went to my car. I started the engine and nagpunta na sa kinaroroonan ko. The trip has gone smoothly. Hindi ganun ang ineexpect ko. Akala ko traffic kasi it's Saturday, maraming magpupunta kung saan saan. I looked at my clock at nakita ko na 7:45 palang. Ako kasi yung tipo ng tao na ginagawa ang mga bagay base sa pinagusapan. Kaya I decided na magexplore muna sa lugar. Pinark ko muna ang aking sasakyan sa parking lot ng said to be pagtutuluyan ko at naglakad na alng. Sa pageexplore na kakita ako ng coffee shop. Baka pwede ako ditong magpalipas oras. Pumasok ako at umorder. Medyo madami ang tao sa loob, kaya sa labas na lang ako umupo. I drank my coffee and ate my sandwich. Naalala ko hindi nga pala ako nakapagbreakfast dahil sa pagmamadali. I was scrolling through my phone ng may biglang.

"Thomas... Thomas!!!" May sumisigaw ng pangalan ko. I immediately turn around para makita kung sinu yun. Wala naman. How would someone know my name dito sa place na ito. I shrug it off and turned my attention back to my phone. Nagpunta ako sa twitter at nag scroll sa feed. A few minutes later a post caught my eye.

"May your spirit be guided. #18yearsofDorm188 #Vsg"

I clicked on the hastag and saw many post portraying their sadness for the lost. Nagtrend panga sya sa buong pilipinas. I look through the photos. Puro random pics lang naman saka mga pictures ng vintage newspaper. Habang nagscoscorll pababa I saw a picture of a dress na may blood. Baka yun yung suot ni miss Vsg before. I clicked it and waited. Nagloload lang ang phone ko. Parang nagbubuffer. Tapos biglang. Not found ang lumabas? ang weird ah.

"Psst. Thomas! Halika!" May tumawag na naman sakin. I looked at my surroundings and found a girl hiding in a bush. Nakasuot siya ng green na skater dress na hanggang tuhod. Short sleeves din ung dress. Nakasandals lang siyang puti. Medyo hindi ko kilala ung mukha. Sumenyas ako with the look na 'ako ba?'. Nagthumbs up siya at nagpunas ako ng labi. Inayos ko ang sarili ko at lumapit sa kanya. Hindi ko nga alam kung bakit ako biglang lumapit. Yung maikli niyang buhok complements her. Matangos ang ilong niya at isa siyang morena. Nakakaakit ang itsura niya sa totoo lang. I think I've lost control. Nung malapit na ako sakanya bigla naman siyang tumakbo.
