Case 7: What's The Secret of
Wild Glamourous Show? (The
Good News and Bad News
Chapter, Part Two)

ROSALINDA

HINDI AKO makapaniwala sa balita na aking narinig. Kinuwento nila lahat ang nangyari noong debut ko. My mother died, not only her but as well as my non-immediate family. The name of the man who slaughtered them is Satan, one of the members of Herald Mortiferum. The man who has escaped from prison.

Ngayon ay nakatitig ako sa lapida ng aking ina. I admit it that I hate my mother, but I do not seek for her to die. I'm not a good daughter I know that, I don't know how to express my love for her, I am often troubling on showing my true emotions. But it doesn't mean her death means nothing to me, it pains me too much. I still can't comprehend everything that happened to me, to the people around me.

Am I cursed?

Since that night, I have been abducted by Mammon - that one of the members of Herald Mortiferum. Now I cannot run away and hide from them, it seems they easily find me and wait for the day that they will show no mercy on me - on us.

If I have just signed the contract amd didn't escape? Lahat ng mga nangyayari ngayon ay hindi mangyayari? Napahilamos ako ng mukha, I don't know anymore.

"Rosalinda?" A man called my name behind me, I turned around to see who it was. But, I do not know this man at all. I guess? "I'm glad to see you here, paying respects to your mother's final resting place. I am aware that you hold a strong loathe towards her, which makes it somewhat surprising to see you here." He smiled sweetly in his angelic face. "Could you share how your day has been thus far?"

He seemed to know me and my mother. I guess he was part of the memories that I have forgotten because of what unimaginable things that Belphegor did.

"I'm doing fine." Sagot ko na lamang, as usual wala akong pinapakita na kahit anong emosyon sa mukha at boses ko. He doesn't seem to look like a dangerous person nor has a knife in his back to stab at me when I am off guard. He's decent?

"August! Why are we here? I thought we were going to the mall to buy me the new Xbox-" napatingin ako sa lalaking nagsaita na kasama niya 'ata. As my eyes gaze upon the boy, my heart immediately went shocked as my eyes widened.

"Harley, as previously discussed, we have planned to visit your mother's grave today, particularly on her birthday." Ani ni August. Nanatiling nakaguhit ang ngiti nito sa labi. "Considering that your sister is also present, how about the three of us go together to the mall? What are your thoughts on this suggestion, Rosalinda?"

His face reminds me of my brother, the appearance didn't change a bit. He just grew and matured a bit. He does have remembrance a bit of our mother's appearance. If I can remember clearly my brother's name turned into Harley Chaves. That does mean... This boy standing in front of me is my brother?

Wait! My brother has found?!

Napatingin ako kay August. Lalong lumapad ang kaniyang ngiti. "Indeed, your brother was located yesterday with the assistance of Clark and his father. Our original intention was to surprise you once we had finished our shopping, but due to unforeseen circumstances, you were unexpectedly present here."

Mabilis akong tumakbo kay Harley at niyakap ito ng sobrang higpit. He didn't move a bit, nor talk to me. Hinayaan niya lang ako.

"To be completely honest, Clark knows it was important for you to know that they were successful in locating your brother. However, your brother adamantly insisted on keeping it a secret and not informing you about this. I'm unsure of his reasoning behind this decision and why he is so insistent on maintaining it as a secret. In fact, he went to great lengths to create chaos and prevent the police and Clark from providing you with a full report. Nevertheless, your brother's efforts proved futile against me, which is why he didn't resist when I informed him of our plan to surprise you," August explained. "But please rest assured, I will provide a comprehensive account of everything that occurred."
