"You have five minutes to kill." The last words left her mouth before she sped off the road.
I feel the strands of my hair rising as the cold wind brush through me. Mas lalo ko pang hinigpitan ang kapit sa bagay na hawak ko sa loob ng aking bulsa na para bang nakadepende ang buhay ko dito.
Mabilis akong kumilos upang matago sa likod ng puno nang makita ang dalawang gwardya. They're rounding. Oh, I almost forgot about that.
I held my breath until they past through me. I waited half a minute before silently running towards the back of the mansion. I was quick as a fly because If I'll be slow as a turtle, I'll be toasted and burned.
Finally, I arrived at my destination without having caught. I pulled the rope that was hidden in sight and test its strength. Good. It's tied safely up there.
I began to rapel onto wall with the help of the rope that was tied from the balcony. Nag simula na akong pagpawisan ng sobra pero pinipilit ko pa ding i-angat ang sarili kong marating ang balcony.
Konting konti na lang...
Pull,
Step,
Pull,
Step,
I'm near, just one last push!
Oh! Thank heavens!
Mabilisan kong hinila ang lubid at inalis ito sa pagkakatali sa bakal. Inilabas ko ang bagay sa aking bulsa at ginamit ito upang buksan ang pintuan. Narinig ko ang pag-unlock ng pinto at dahan dahang tinulak ito pabukas.
Napahinga ako ng malalim at sinara ito bago hinubad ang madumi kong sapatos, na puno ng putik, at damit na nabasa ng aking pawis. Gosh, I need to shower but I'm tired.
I gaze at my bed and it's tempting me to lay down but I can't. I won't sleep reeking in sweat and alcohol. My mom is gonna kill me if she finds out that I sneak out of the house again to went party.
I heard a vehicle coming. I look at my wall clock and sigh in relief. It's exactly 3 a.m. which means, dad and my brother just arrive from work.
I had five minutes to kill, indeed.
