PSEUDO XII

I stood up and blocked his way. "A-Arthur, are you---"

I didn't finish my words when he looked at me blankly for a second, and he walked passing me.

I was left there in shock, and instead of prolonging my embarrassment, I chose to sit in front of Everleigh, who just shrugged and closed her eyes sadly.

"How will you believe?"

She frowned, "what?"

"How will you believe me that I'm telling the truth about the book of death?"

She let out a sigh and answered me feeling bored just to finish this conversation.

"To see is to believe. Yeah..... Right." She uttered.

*Beep*Beep*Beep*Beep*

We both looked at the part where screamed and crashed off a car sounds came from.

"What the---!" Everleigh exclaimed.

I try to figure out what happened, so I stand up and decide to move closer to where the accident occurred because we're too far.

"Hey, where are you going Dimi?"

"I just want to see." I said and ran towards the commotion.

"Help! Help! He's critical!" I heard from a lady standing beside me.

My eyes dilated, and I covered my mouth with both hands.

"Mama Mia! Arthur!" I heard Everleigh shout behind me. "D-dimi! Is he dead?" she whispers.

We saw Arthur lying on the floor soaking in blood. His body is under the car. His eyes were closed, and I knew he couldn't survive at that stage.

"Come on! Let's go Dimi!"

Everleigh started to pull my arms while sobbing, she kept saying something, but I couldn't hear it clearly because I was confused.

The car... The car that bumped Arthur has a sticker of no. 5.

I knew it! Everything was true!
