Arisa POV"phew" I softly closed the book after letting out a small sigh. I glanced outside to see an orange light shining in, a sign the sun is setting.
"Let's see, this came from shelf.... Oh ayun! " Ibinalik ko ang libro sa orihinal nitong pinaglagyan sa bookshelf and turned to leave when a certain book cought my eye.
'MYSTERY' pagbabasa ko. Ang libro ay may isang word Mystery ang nakasulat dito.
"It's rare for a book to have only one word as a title.... Hmmm siguro magandang basahin " I was surprisingly interested on the book and tried to get it down from the highest shelf, pero nakakainis!!
Bkit pa kasi ako nabiyaan ng ganitong tangkad? Ang hirap maabot. Arghhh kaya ko to!!! Shit... Malapit na!!
"Konti na lang maaabot mona Arisa!!!" sabi ko sa sarili ko
When i stretched high as much as physically possible a shadow suddenly fell on me.
"Ano ba!!!"
"sssssshhhhhhhhh" sabi ng librarian. Nagpeace sign ako. Sorry naman ah eto kasing tao dito paharang harang edi naabot ko na sana yung libro!!
Lumingon ako sa taong kumuha ng libro na kanina ko pa pinaghihirapang kunin. Okaayy, siya na matangkad
"Here you go. Is this what you want? " tanong sakin ng nasa harap ko pagtingin ko sa mukha niya
"oh! Lucas! Sorry ?" I said
"It's okay, This is what you wanted to read? " My upperclassman lucas said with a smile
"It is. Thank you very much" Nakangiti kong saad. At ibinigay niya sa akin ang libro
"Not at all. Anyway, you have interesting tastes Arisa. It looks like a weird book" Lucas lookes down at the book in my hand. I followed his gaze to it.
"Ahm, I guess i do. I thought it was odd for book to have just one word for a title" Nakapagtataka naman talaga. Ano bang meron sa librong ito?
"Good point. Who's the author? " Lucas
"um. Harry Jackson"
"Never heard of him before"
"Me either" I wonder what its all about. Nacurious ako sa contents kaya I flipped sa unang page pero walang nakasulat.
"Weird there's nothing written inside" Akala ko umalis nato. Nandito parin pala? Tumingin ako sa kanya. Interesado rin siya sa libro
"Youre right" pag sang-ayon ko Lucas peered down at the page with me. My heart skipped a beat with his handsome face close to mine.Ang gwapo niya pero mas gwapo siya sa malapitan. Sana habang buhay na ito. Ang bango ng perfume niya. Oh to the M to the G HEAVEN!!! ( Hoy!! Kumalma ka Arisa baka sabihin nyang pinagnanasahan mo siya. Nakakahiya ka) sabi ko sa isip ko
"How strange" I flipped through the page pretending I was okay with him. Bakit ba kasi ang lapit niya sa akin?
Balik muna sa libro. Nakapagtatka na talaga itong libro. Sa gitna ng libro may nakita narin akong printed text. (Why is the first half made up of empty pages? Did they mess up when they printed it?) sabi ko sa sarili ko
I skimmed the text thinking about how weird it was and snapped it shut. The printed contents were merely the author analyzing a mystery and giving their opinion on it.
"yung contents nya mystery din"Lucas. I nodded
"Anong gusto mong gawin dito sa libro? Put it back?" Lucas asked me
"oh sure,please do" baka kung ano pa maisip ko sa librong yan.
"Okay" Lucas smiled kindly at me and put the book back (Lucas is really nice guy. Swerte ng babaeng mapapangasawa niya.)
