The Evasive Past (Revising)

Chapter 21: Sherlock Holmes

Hinatid ko na si Gwen sa kanila. Nag-enjoy ako with her kahapon.

Here I am, sprawling in my bed, feeling dead and hurt every single day. I'm still thinking about the menaced note.

If I knew, who's behind that note, I will surely strangle him/her.

Ugh, di ko talaga mapigilan ang sarili ko.

I looked at the wall clock. It's already 6:45. I still have more time to get ready for school.

45 minutes later ~

I was done blow-drying my hair and combed it until it shone. I was applying a dark, waterproof mascara when my phone beeped.

*bzzzzt bzzzzt*

I immediately picked it up.

1 new message from Gwen

I opened it.

From: Gwen Dayne

Bes, hurry up! I have some good news for you. :)

I was nosy about what Gwen texted me.

So, I hurriedly applied some matte lipstick on my pouty lips and put some dark brown shade on my eyebrows using my eyebrow liner.

After I pampered myself, I hurried to the door and dugged up my car keys on my bag and drove away.

10 minutes later ~

Gwen waited for me on the nearby waiting shed. I saw her eyes puckered as she smiled.

"Bes! Good thing you're here. May kailangan kang malaman." Her eyebrows rose.

"Not here. Cmon!" I beckoned my hands and she strode to the passenger's seat.

I drove far, far away. Gusto ko walang makakarinig ng pag-uusapan namin.

"We're here." I said tersely.

Bumaba kami sa car at umupo sa isang shady spot under a huge acacia tree. Mahangin doon. The fuzzy air and flower scent dominated the place. We're in solitude.

"So...."

"Ah bes, I think alam ko na kung sino ang nagsulat ng note na 'yun." panimula in Gwen.

"Then who's that bastard?" I asked calmly.

"I'm not sure. Pero may kutob ako na si K-KitKat." she said disparagingly.

The moment I heard that bitch's name, I was infuriated. A snarling and huffing expression plastered my whole face.

Shit. Can't be.

"I-it's m-my opinion lang naman, Shaz. Don't be furious. K-kase, napapansin kong palagi ka niyang binabangga at parang may galit talaga siya sa'yo." She looked at me sheepishly.

"I know. B-but what if she's not?" I asked her convincingly.

"A-alamin muna natin." She faced me and stood up. She dugged up something on her bag.

A magnifying glass, a pair of binoculars, pair of glasses, a metal tracker, a leather jacket and a walkie talkie.

I was amazed about the things she showed me. I contemplated each of it and asked her.

"W-what's with that?" I asked her with a smirk plastered on my lip.

"We're going to be detectives."
