(PRESENT TIME)
NORMAL POV
nice saturday afternoon at Lucy's Garden.
'Chace. Remember what you told me? The lets-fix-our-issues-first-then-we-tell-each-other-after-that. I'll tell you my first one.'
Rydell: You only call me that when you're serious. What's with the change of topic all of a sudden? *eating cookies*
Lucy: I have something to tell you.
Rydell: Damn. Shoot it.
Lucy: May dahilan kung bakit ko naging kaibigan sila Eleecia. Yung papel na kinuha ni Mickey sa bulletin board, sila naglagay nun. Yung reply na I-am-one-of-them.-I-need-help. Ako yung naglagay nun. I.. I.. this. *gives something to Rydell.* I saw you.
Rydell: *inspects the thing then drops it off the table, sips coffee* Saw me what?
Lucy: I saw you. Have that badge. Have also that badge.
Rydell: *chokes on tea* should I tell her? Or should I lie? Isip Rydell.
Lucy: Please dont lie to me. I know you're going to lie to me. You always tilt your head to left before you lie. And you just tilt it to the left.
Rydell: WHAT?!?!? I ALWAYS DO THAT!?!?! kaya pala hindi ako manalo nalo sa bluff game namin nila Mickey at hindi ako makapagsinungaling. They figured me out, those idiots.
Lucy: That's not the point. The point is, Why do you also have a badge?
Sabihin mo na. This is Lucy we are talking about. She wouldn't ask if its not necessary or badly needed.
Rydell: My father or stranger as what I call him told me something about the badge.
Lucy: Like living with 16 total strangers in one house? Lemme guess, the name of the house is Full House. And someone is gonna find you. It depends on you if you ever want to be found. But beware: If by the end of the year, you are not complete, you will all face consequences. Is that what your father told you?
Rydell: Too much information, Taylor. Ngayon ko nga lang narinig lahat yan. Pero yeah yung una lang talaga narinig ko kasi I begin tuning out my father.
Lucy: You should have listened!
Rydell: And what?
Lucy: Para natutulungan natin sila Eleecia at Jace maghanap.
Rydell: So si Eleecia yung finder? Wawa naman siya. I hope she's starting it already.
Lucy: She is and as we speak, she is already on the move. Meron na po siyang iba pang hinala kung sino sino sila.
Rydell: Pinakita nila sayo?
Lucy: No. I guessed. I'm pretty observant you know *winks*
... ..
Lucy: You admit it?
Rydell: Admit what?
Lucy: That you have the badge and you are one of us!
Rydell: I admit I have a badge but I am not one of you. You're all weirdos.
Lucy: Yes *smiles* 13 more to go!
Rydell: Yun lang ba sasabihin mo?
Lucy: Ha? Uhh. Yeah. And isa nga din po pala ako.
Rydell: *nods* You already said that. Kelan ba tayo lilipat?
Lucy: If Eleecia finds them all before the year ends.
Rydell: What are you thinking?
Lucy: Of course, we are going to help her.
