Unsolved Mystery (Nilacabb Series #1)

CHLOE

Halos hindi ako makapag-salita nang matanggap ko ang balita. Agad naming pinuntahan ang hospital kung nasa'n sina Lueese at Jeric ngayon.

"Chloe," Hazel hugged me as soon as she saw me. "They're currently in E.R."

"Ano na naman ba 'to?" Mikayla said. "Ayoko na ng gan'to."

Caleb hugged him and caressed her hair to calm her down. I wiped my tears off.

"What happened?" Tanong ni Renzo.

"Sira 'yung break ng sasakyan ni Jeric. Car accident, bro." Sagot ni Jarenn.

"Pa'nong masisira? E, ginamit niya pa 'yon papunta ro'n." Renzo said. Bakas sa boses niya ang galit.

"Renz," I called him and tell him to calm down.

"Suspicious, right? Tingin namin someone purposely did that." Jarenn said.

"Ano n'ang lagay nila?" I asked.

"Hindi pa namin alam." Caleb said.

"Doc, how are they?" Jamiel asked as soon as the surgeon came out from the room.

"Sorry..."

My world suddenly stopped. No, it's not happening again. No! Tell us they're okay.

"We did everything. Walang nakaligtas sa kanila. I'm really sorry."

Napabagsak na lang ako sa sahig and cried so hard. "No!"

"Love," Renzo called me.

"Stop lying, please. They're alive." I said.

"This can't be, Doc. Please... Do something. We can't lose them. Doc, please! I ca– I cannot handle this kind of pain again, please!" Hazel begged the Surgeon.

"I'm sorry. Wala na talaga." Sabi ng Doctor sabay umalis.

I cried harder in so much pain. This isn't true. It is just a dream, right? Oo, panaginip lang 'to. Please, sabihin niyong hindi 'to totoo.

"Guys..." Mikayla called us. She's also crying but trying to calm herself down. "Please,"

"No! This isn't true!" I screamed.

We entered the room and saw two people, covered with white cloth. Natatakot ako. Natatakot akong buklatin at makita sila. Natatakot akong makita sila sa kama na 'to.

"Hindi ko kaya, Renz." I said as I lean to his chest. "Ayoko,"

Hazel removed the white cloth. I saw how peaceful Lueese looked. She looks like she's sleeping.

"Lueese..." Hazel said and burst into tears. Mikayla hugged her so tight to give her some comfort but it's no work.

"Bro, pa'no kami makaka-abante nito? E, wala na kayo nila Christian at Shane. Iniwan niyo ako, Jeric." Jarenn said.

"Lueese, I love you." Mikayla said.

It so painful. It's so fucking painful. I saw another 2 important people to me in this fucking bed... na hindi na namin makakasama kahit kailan.

I gaslight myself na nananaginip lang ako. I say to myself na hindi totoo lahat 'to pero putang ina, alam ko sa sarili ko na nandito sila sa harapan namin. Wala nang buhay.

Ang Papa ni Lueese ang nag-asikaso sa burol nilang dalawa, since wala nang magulang si Jeric. Ang sakit-sakit.

The memories of me crying over Shane's death flashes to my mind. Naulit na naman. Nandito ako... again. Umiiyak.

I throw my pillow on the wall. I am so fucking frustrated. I am fucking hurting.

"Lueese!"

I screamed even more. I cried, I yelled, I punched the wall. I did everything. Gusto kong mabawasan 'tong sakit sa 'kin but I can't.

How could I still keep going? I lost Chris, I lost Shane and now, I lost Lueese and Jeric. Tang ina, pa'no ko makakayanan?

JARENN

"Tang ina!"

I cried so much hard. Thinking about Jeric.

"P're, masakit pa rin 'yung pagkawala ni Shane sa 'kin... tapos ito na naman? Ito na naman?!" I screamed at Jeric's picture that pinned on the back of my door. Lahat ng kaibigan ko may litrato ro'n and it's not helping.

"Akala ko sobrang sakit na no'ng nawala si Chris at Shanelle sa 'kin. Ngayon dumoble 'yung sakit." I said.

"How do you expect me to handle all the pain? How?!" I screamed.

"How, Jeric?" I am talking to his picture eventho I know it won't reply.

"Lahat na lang. Lagi na lang! Lagi na lang masakit. Lagi na lang gan'to."

I don't want to sit on another love ones' grave. Jeric, Lueese, you two really know how to cause a pain to us.

My wounds are slowly closing, tapos ito na naman. Sobrang sakit naman no'n. Patas pa ba 'to?

CHLOE

"Ayoko na," Hazel said. "Ayoko na, please. Hindi na magiging okay lang lahat."

"Hazel, nasasaktan din kami. Sobrang sakit!" Mikayla screamed in pain. "Sobrang sakit... please, hold it together."

I hugged them and cry with them. It hurts a lot. I can not handle the pain but I have to. Gusto ko nang sumuko pero kailangan ko pang lumaban. Ang laking ng epekto nito sa 'kin.

"Who the fuck is that killer?" Mikayla said. "He or she has to face the consequences."

"'Pag ako ang naka-huli sa kaniya, papatayin ko siya." Hazel said.
