Simarah Faith
"Hoy!" sigaw ko kay Abigail nang makita siyang tumatakbo papuntang canteen.
Napalingon naman siya sa akin at binigyan ako ng isang mainit na ngiti.
"Bibili sana ako ng pagkain ih, kakagutom lang kasi. Ikaw, anong ginagawa mo rito?" tanong niya.
"Nagugutom rin ako, Abigail. So, may balita ka na ba kay Exodus? Hindi siya nagrereply." Malungkot kong tugon sa kanya.
"That's what I'm planning to say to you, Exodus didn't go to school for almost three days. Ewan ko ba sa kanya. He's been ghosting the Science Department."
Napabuntong hininga na lamang ako sa aking narinig. What really happened, Exodus?
"What? Three days na siyang hindi pumapasok? Ano ba kasing nangyayari sa kanya?" hindi mapakaling tanong ko.
"Hindi ko rin alam, Simarah. His members at Science Department are complaining, the whole project, nasa kanya iyon."
Hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko o kung anong gagawin. I'm so blank.
"But he's active on Twitter and Instagram," ani ko.
"Yes, active siya pero ni isang response wala. Ayokong isipin na bumabalik na naman ang depression niya, isang buwan din siyang nawala 'non at ang nakakalungkot pa, his parents wouldn't believe it." Abigail drew a long sigh.
"Ano? Hindi siya nakapasok ng isang buwan? Malala ba ang naging depression niya?"
"I think yes, kasi nagsimula 'yon nong hiniwalayan siya ni Olive."
"Olive?" napataas ang kilay ko.
"Olive Palamos, his ex-girlfriend." Tugon ni Abigail dahilan para mapakamot ako sa aking ulo.
"Nagkaroon pala siya ng girlfriend, maybe that's the reason." Tulalang sambit ko.
"Ngayon ko lang to sasabihin, Simarah. Please help him, I know may pag-asa pang ibalik ang dating sigla ni Exodus, I know that you'll will his soul through the name of Jesus Christ. Please, ikaw lang talaga ang kilala kong makakatulong sa kanya." Abigail pleaded to me as if she was gonna cry.
"Okay? I'll do my best, Abigail. Just don't worry, okay?" I smiled as Abigail was relieved.
