Monday / October 24 / 3:30 PM

" Hey Erica , Nandito ako.. psst " sigaw ni Ian sakin habang hinahanap ko siya sa parking lot..

" Kamusta ? " as he open his arms and tries to hug me....

" HERE'S ! ..... your flash drive.. Thanks.." pinigilan ko yung kamay niya sa pagyakap sakin .

Napakamot siya ng ulo then kinuha yung flashdrive..

Matagal na rin kaming magkaibigan ni Ian , take note .. "MAGKAIBIGAN" di naman ako manhid para talagang hindi maramdaman yung mga ginagawa niya para sakin . Siya lang talaga yung taong pinaka ka close ko . Palagi kami nagkakasundo sa mga bagay bagay.. Nerd kasi siya , may itsura naman , mabait .

" No.. no problem "

" By the way .. Check out my new wheels.. "

" Cool , very old school .. "

" 1978 to be exact , Now we can go to the drive. Merong kainan dun sa Newberg .. 60 miles away punta tayo kung gusto mo lang naman .. "

" Wrong timing ka naman Ian.. "

" You okay? " alala niya

" IT'S been one strange fucking day . "

" May kinalaman ba dito si Courtney? "

" Nah.. wala naman .. sanay na ko dun.. Halos araw araw naman eh .. Hahahaha "

" Wait ? Napanood mo ba yung pinapanood ko sayong movie dun sa flash drive ko ? "

" Yeah , thanks . Cool movie though "

" Speaking of movies... pwede bang manood tayo ng movies this week ? But .. you seem distracted? Sure ka ba talagang ok ka lang? "

" I'm not.. I guess i need to talk to somebody , just to get it out of my system... "

" Well I'm Dr. Ian Graham ... and I won't prescribe you any meds . You can tell me everything .. "

Umupo ako sa tabi ni Ian and then nagkwento ..

" Ian , I had this incredibly bizarre experience in Mr. Alexander's class today .. I mean .. Life changing "

" Have you ever had a dream , so real that it was like a movie? " dagdag ko

Then may lalaking naglakad pa punta samin ..

" Erica Caulfield , right ? "

Tapos tinulak niya si Ian ..

" You better tell me what you told to the Principal , Now.. "

" ANSWER ME BITCH! "

" I told him the truth! may nakita akong lalaking may baril.."

" NO!! You told him na ako ang may baril.. That's why he dragged me into his office .. "

" And what? Gave you a lecture? "

" NOBODY , nobody lectures me .. "

" You should leave Kenneth "

" Do not analyze me! I pay people for that .. Worry yourself for that .. Erica "

" Step back Kenneth Prescott "

" Oh man .. So you're telling me what to do ? "

" Get away from him dude " pagtatanggol sakin ni Ian.

Tapos hineadbutt ni Kenneth si Ian . Nadali yung mata niya

" Hey , leave him alone ! " pag aawat ko sa kanila

" NOBODY TELLS ME WHAT TO DO! " as he grabbed my face " Not my parents , Not the principal , or that whore in the bathroom .. "

" Ano ba Kenneth! Nasasaktan ako .. "

Kinalmot ko siya at tinulak . .

Pagkabagsak niya .. biglang may dumating na kotseng medyo luma .. Tumayo ako then nagkatitigan kami ng driver .. siya?

" ERICA ? "

" Alyssa ?! "

" No you again? " sabi ni Kenneth sa driver ng kotse pagkatapos niyang tumayo..

Sinuntok ni Ian si Kenneth hanggang sa natumba silang dalawa ..

" Go , go , let me handle this " sabi ni Ian ..

Umandar yung kotse nilapitan ako...

" Get In Erica .. " sabi ng babaeng nasa kotse ......
