It's been a week since I started and I finally found my place to study. You're right, I'm still in high school. Isn't it tough what I'm going through? Can I really handle it?
Then your about to find out.************
I woke up early in the morning so that my classmates would think I'm a diligent student on the first day of school, even though I'm not really.
I already took a bath, ate, and left. In just a few minutes, I arrived at my school.
My school is nearby, do you remember the rooftop where I mentioned someone died? That's where I'll be studying.
The bell rang, and I didn't know where my classroom was. Luckily, someone helped me.
Her name is Lilith, she's kind, friendly, and I'm so lucky because she's my classmate.
"So bago ka dito? " Lilith asked as we walked, with a smile on our faces.
"Oh. Yeah. Ikaw? Matagal kana ba rito? "I answered, but with a question back to Lilith.
" ngee, ako? Matagal na ako dito, at may sasabihin ako sayo, alam mo bang may mangkukulam na pusa dito? "I stopped, caught off guard by Lilith's question.
" Charot lng walang mangkukulam na pusa dito, gawa-gawa ko lang yun *chuckles* nakita talaga na natakot kita"
Lilith said after she scared me, but my fear didn't go away because there really is a witching cat.
I am already in the room, all my classmates are laughing, but I am just sitting on the side, thinking about what will happen next.
I stood up and went to the restroom. As I walked down the hallway, there were no people around. Everyone was already in the room. After a few minutes, I reached the restroom, closed the door, and started to pee.
While I was peeing, I heard noise from the other restroom, it sounded like someone was angry and stabbing someone. I didn't pay attention to it, but suddenly the victim screamed. I went out to check what was happening in the other restroom.
When I opened the door, I saw a woman with multiple stab wounds and her head was in the toilet.
I just screamed in fear. My scream wasn't too loud, so no one heard me. Suddenly, The black cat attacked me, scratching my stomach, and then quickly left.
There was a lot of blood dripping from my stomach, causing me to fall down and cry loudly.
Lilith suddenly arrived and helped me stand up and asked for help. I kept coughing so I couldn't hear much and couldn't see clearly.
Suddenly, I saw a black cat at the window, but I couldn't see it clearly because my vision was becoming blurred.
I just held my stomach to prevent more blood from coming out.
The principal arrived and saw me covered in blood.
Our foolish principal scolded Lilith, thinking that she was the one who attacked me.
The other classmates didn't tell the truth, why? Because she is always bullied by the school bullies, they throw away her homework, and lock her in the restroom.
That's how I found out about what she's going through, we're actually going through almost the same thing.
I felt sorry for Lilith. I wanted to tell the truth but I couldn't speak because I was crying so much, my stomach hurt so much that it felt like I didn't have kidneys. It was so painful.
Why me? What does that cat want? I just found myself asking.
I left, as I walked out, I looked at the principal with a deep gaze, and then left.
"I-ah!" I screamed because of the noise I heard. It sounded distant, like someone was killing someone. I knew something was going to happen, so I told Lilith to accompany me. I walked quickly despite the pain of my wound.
Upon arriving, there were already many dead bodies, without heads, without feet, and without hands. I knelt down and cried, "Why is it like this..?" I said to myself, while Lilith beside me couldn't believe what she saw.
I sat down and started telling the news, and fortunately, the person I was talking to knew about the black cat.
"I know that, it happened to me before, but it suddenly stopped and maybe targeted other people, and you are one of them. You have a power that the black cat wants, that's why it wants to kill you," the person said.
"Me..? I have power? How?" I asked.
"Do you remember suddenly hearing people shouting while you were walking with your friend?" the person said.
"How did you know that..?" I asked."I heard it too."
Hindi pala ako mag isa, at talagang may kapangyarihan pa ako? Grabe, Gusto ko lang naman mamuhay ng mapayapa tapos ganun?

Ano bayan, bakit ba ganun yung pusa na yon? If I could just punch the cat, I would have done it a long time ago, just kidding. Pero ano nga ba ang mangyayari kay Astraea at kay Lilith?
