Chapter 5

Jenna POV

After what happened yesterday, James and I became friends. He not bad guy, I judge him because of small things. Natalie and Sai was shocked when James took me to our classroom. Who wouldn't be surprised by that, right?

I remember after James took me to our classroom, Natalie and Sai came to me and asked what happening.

"What's happening? Jenna?" Sai asked. "Nothing, there's nothing wrong with that and we're Bestfriend now" I answered.

"Bestfriend!?" they shocked. "Yes?" I unsure said. "I thought you don't like him?" Natalie asked me. "That's before but now I like him now as a FRIEND" I answered. Diniin ko talaga ang word na Friend dahil baka mag assume na naman itong dalawa.

"Really?" They sarcasm said. I just rolled my eyes on them. "Yeah" I just said.

"I'm home" Walang gana kong sambit. "Ano na namang kadramahan" inis na sambit ni mom. Lihim akong napairap. Oh diba sinabi ko lang na nakauwi na ako yan agad ang inisip niya.

Hindi nalang ako umimik, tumaas na ako sa aking kwarto para makapag pahinga. I contacted Mr. Zedo, the investigator, he was my dad friend son. "So, anong balita na Mr. Zedo?" tanong ko rito. He is 24 years old.

"I still don't have news Ms. Jenna" he said. Napabuntong hininga naman ako. Two weeks ko nang pinapaimbestigahan ang nangyari sa amin. Alam ko kasi na may hindi nangyayaring tama.

"Okay, call me if you have any news" I said and hung up the call. Napapikit ako dahil sa stress. I need to know what's really happened that day.

"Sabay na tayo mag lunch" Aya sa akin ni James tumango naman ako sa kanya, "Sige" I said. Habang nag lalakad kami patungo sa cafeteria ay napapatingin sa amin ang mga studyante. Medyo hindi ako nakokomportable since ayaw ko nga ng atensyon ng mga tao.

"Just ignore them" James said and hold my hand to relax me, it's effect, I slightly felt better. Nakarating na nga kami sa cafeteria, nakahawak parin ang kamay namin sa isa't isa.

"Sit. I'll just order something for us to eat" he said, I just nodded at him. Biglang may nag pop-out sa aking notification kaya tiningnan ko ito.

Mr. Zedo

I found something.

Me
What did you found out?

Mr. Zedo

A letter from your dad
before he die.

Me
Okay. I will go there later

Mr, Zedo

Okay

"Who is your chatmate?" He asked, I didn't notice that he already here. "Just someone" I answered. He just nodded at me, we start to eat.

"Pwede mo ba ako samahan mamaya, after school?" I asked. "Sure" he said and smile at me. Nag kwentuhan lang kami hanggang natapos na kaming kumain. Hinatid na niya ako sa classroom. "See you later" he said and I just nodded at him.

After a class, James and I met at the gate. I waved at him, I run at him. "Where we going?" He asked. "Somewhere" I answered.

"Do you have a car?" I asked him.

"Yeah" he answered. So sumakay kami sa kanyang kotse, tahimik lang kaming dalawa sa loob. "Do you mind if I open the radio?" I asked him while he was driving. "Sure. No problem" he answered still looking at the front.

I open the radio and the song started to play, It's Teenage mind songs by Tate McRae. "I like the song" I said out of the blue. "Yeah" he said and look at me, tumingin na ulit siya sa harapan.

Makalipas ang Ilang oras ay nakarating na kami sa office ni Mr. Zedo. "Why are we here?" He asked me confused. "I will explain to you later" I answered.

Pumasok na nga kami rito, at nadatnan namin si Mr. Zedo. Masasabi kong gwapo siya. He tall, Well-built body, his skin is middle-aged white, his face is square shaped, his almond eyes, his wavy hair, black hair, medium length hair.

"Oh? You here" he said, napatingin naman siya kay James, "And you are?" He asked James. "James Silvano. Jenna friend" James answered.

"Oh" Mr. Zedo said. "Anyway, here the letters that I found" Mr. Zedo said and handed over a letter to me. "Take a seat" he said. Umupo naman kami ni James.
Binuksan ko na ang sulat.

Pero ang laman lang ng sulat ay isang address, White House, Sabang, Puerto Galera.

"Does anyone know this place?" Tanong ko sa kanila, tiningnan naman ni James iyon. "I don't know that place" Mr. Zedo answered. "How about you Mr. Silvano?" Mr. Zedo asked him, we wait his response. "I think I know this place" he answered.

"My friend lived here" he added, "Good to hear that, I think it's good, maybe James can go with you there, Jenna. Since I was busy in my duty" Mr. Zedo suggest.

Nagkatinginan naman kaming dalawa ni James, "Okay" sambit ko. "Is it okay with you?" I asked him. "It's fine with me" he answered. "That's good" Mr. Zedo said.

Nasa loob na kami ng kotse, pauwi na kaming dalwa medyo gabi na ngayon, "Care to explain?" pagbasag ng katahimikan ni James. "I need to know about what happened the day they became cold to me" I answered.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Do you remember the day I was going to jump off a cliff?" I asked.

"Yes." He answered.

"That day, they started to treat me that I wasn't part of the family, and I don't....know why" I answered and started to sobbed.

Bigla niyang tinigil ang kotse, "I didn't know they treated you like that" he said, I feel his pity for me. This is the reason why I don't like open this to someone, they felt pity on me.

"Don't worry, we will found out, I will help you" he said, and hug me tight, I hug him back too. I felt safe when I hug him. This is the first time when I felt happy, comfort and safe.

"Do you want to go home now or you want to go somewhere?" He asked me. I don't think I can go home like this and since it's midnight, maybe I should enjoy this? I don't care if in the next day they scold me.

"Do you know a place?" I asked him. "Yeah, In my condo" he answered. Wala naman atang masama kung sumama ako sa kanya nu?

"Then let's go there" I said, he drives again until we arrived at his condo. Bumaba na kami sa kotse. Pumasok na kami sa loob.

Akala ko madumi ang kanyang condo since lalaki siya pero nagulat ako na sobrang linis, wala kang makikitang mga gabok.

"Are you sure, this is your condo?" I joked with him and laugh softy. "Of course" mahabang niyang sagot sa akin.

"Yabang mo talaga" sambit ko sa kanya at umiling sa kanya. Napatawa naman siya sa akin. "Do you want to eat? Or Are you going to sleep right away?" He asked.

"I'm going to sleep now since I felt tired now" I answered, "Okay, then you can sleep in my room" he said. "And you?" I asked, Don't tell me we'll sleep in the same bed tonight?

"In the living room" he answered, Ano ka ba Jenna kung ano ano ang iniisip mo sa tao. "Oh" I just said.
"Okay. Goodnight" he said and I nodded at him. "Goodnight too" I also said.

Pumunta na ako sa room niya kung gaano kaalis ang labas ng kwarto niya, ganito rin naman sa kanyang kwarto, mas malinis pa.

Humiga na ako, nakakapagod ang araw na ito. Malalaman ko rin kung ano ang dahilan nito. Kunting tiis nalang Jenna. Mabuti nalang talaga pumayag si James na sumasama at tumulong sa akin. Sa totoo lang si Mr. Zedo lang talaga ang malalapitan ko nung hindi ko pa nakikilala si James.
