MIND GAMES (Under Revision)

CHAPTER 4

SHERRON

I was hopeless to see him kahit saang lupalop ko sya hanapin hinding hindi ko sya makikita. Due to intense heat ny head suddenly felt light and my vision blurry. Before I close my eyes I saw someone walks towards me...

Thud*

I feel like someone is holding me but I can't open my eyes no matter how hard I try. I suddenly feel the soft thing touched my lips, I tried opening my eyes but I couldn't nor trying to move my limbs still can't move. I felt my cheeks were touched by soft thing that I can't explain as well as on my forehed. I wanted to shout but I can't. My body was paralyzed! I waited for minutes until my body can start move. I opened my eyes and all I see was a huge tree. I woke up seeing myself sleeping next to this huge tree, I touched my lips asking myself ano yung lumapat sa bibig ko. It's not an animal right? Or yucky things?

I was surprised when I realized na dapat dun ako sa flowers matutumba bat ako narito. Inayos ko ang sarili ko at tumakbo pabalik sa kwarto ng makita ko si Kim na nag alala.

"Where have you been?" Makikita ang bakas ng pag alala sa mukha nya.

"Nakatulog ako sa garden." Sagot ko pa and he brushed his hair using his hands.

"Damn Sherron! It's dangerous out there! How can you sleep so soundly without thinking that there's danger ahead of you? We already lost Su we can't loose you too!" Singhal nya sakin and I looked down on the floor. I can't look to his eyes, I'll probably cry kung titingin ako sa kanya. Kanna and the others was speechless and none of them moved.

Kim immediately apologize after scolding me. He also hugged me tightly while apologizing.

"I'm sorry Sherry... I-I'm just worried kasi a-and it's dangerous outside." pag paumanhin nya. I shooked my head and kumalas sa yakap nya. I lowered my head and apologize.

" Sherry... "Rinig kong sabi ni Kanna sabay lapit sakin at niyakap ako.

" Sherry shh.... Di mo kasalanan okay? Tahan na.. "comfort pa nya ng may tumunog sa announcer.

" Hopssssss bawal celebration!!! " Sigaw ng speaker.

Ang lungkot na nararamdaman ko ay biglang napalitan ng takot at malakas na kabog ng dibdib. Nagkatinginan kaming magkakaibigan na para bang nag tatanong kung ano na naman ito.

" All students must proceed to the gym ... "Sabi ng nasa speaker.

" Within 1 minute ang mahuhuli... "

" Sasabog bang!!!! HAHAHAHAHHA" sabi nito sabay halakhak na para bang nanonood ng climax sa films.

Agad kaming nagsitakbuhan papuntang gym, tamang tama before 1 min nakarating na kami pero may mga naiiwan. Pagtunog ng buzzer bumukas ang gym at agad bumaba ang glass pane na para bang kinulong kami. Nakita ko ang ibang ko pang kaklase na di nakapasok, pati narin ang maraming students galing sa ibang school.

"Game show..." Tunog naman ng speaker.

"Ang nasa labas ng Gym ang ating players."

Napatingin ako ng makita ko si Ashley isa sa mga bullies pero minsan lang.

"Last man standing... Ang matira matibay..." Sabi ng speaker at may mga lumabas na weapons. Agad naman tumunog ang bell upang simulan ang laro.

Nasa harapan ko mismo... Nasa harapan ko mismo nagpapatayan ang mga kapwa ko estudyante.

"I'll survive!! I'll survive!!!" Sigaw ng isa. Nang makita naming tumatakbo ito sa isang estudyante at madiin na binaon ang kutsilyo sa binti nito.
