"H-hindi..." Napailing ako at humakbang paatras.
The lifeless body in front of me. This can't be.
Nagmistulang ilog ang dugo na umaagos mula sa katawan niya.
My hands are shaking and my knees are trembling. I looked up on the rooftop and saw the three silhouettes escaping.
"T-tulong!" I shouted habang umaatras papalayo.
Hindi ko kaya. Nanginginig ang kalamnan ko sa nakikita ko. Hindi ko masikmura.
"Tulong po!! May namatay!" I shouted as I cried while running to the guard house.
"T-tulong! Kuya.. tulong po."
Kumunot ang noo ng guard saakin at tinignan ako mula ulo hanggang paa.
"Mag-aalas-otso na, bakit andito kapa?"
Umiling ako. "Kuya may n-namatay po. May p-patay, m-maraming dugo! Kuya!"
Napatayo siya. "ha?! Sandali!"
"Nasa harap po ng faculty admin!"
Sumasakit na ang mata ko kakaiyak, my throat is sore and I wanted to take a drink dahil wala na akong lakas para sa mangyayari. Napahawak ako sa gate dahil pakiramdam ko mawawalan na ako ng hininga.
This is the second time I encountered a murder in front of me.
T-those three silhouettes, I know who they are and who is behind these crimes.
Hindi ko na alam ang gagawin ko. I am certain that they already know me.
And I should prepare for my end. But I can't let that happen... We made a deal, as long as I remain silent. Walang mangyayari saakin.
I closed my eyes when I feel a cold steel touching my skin. Is this really my end?
Nanlalamig ako dahil sa mainit na hininga na nasa leeg ko.
"Endure all things, baby. Remain silent and keep your mouth shut or..."
A tear escaped from my eyes when I felt the steel slicing my skin.
"You'll die with my own hands."
