DRAKE POV

Maaga akong gumising para ayusin ang mga gamit namin papuntang Metro Manila. Inayos ko na ang mga damit ko at aking pana.

Pumunta ako sa garage upang icheck ang isa kong kotse yung ginamit nina Mavis noong last day para bumuo ng grupo.

Pagbukas ko ng kotse may nakita akong notebook na nakausli sa baba.

Kinuha ko ito at napagisipang ibuklat.

Pagbuklat ko may nahagip akong  sulat at halatang bata ang may handwritten nito.

'A jack-in-a-box was opened,
Livings are frightened.
The silence became violence,
And everything filled with transcendence'

Parang nakuha ko agad ang sinasabi ng unang saknong. Ipinapahiwatig nito ang nangyayari ngayon.

'Stars from the sky,
Seven of them will fly.
Their blossom is like a Myrtle;
They sour like an eagle'

Kami kaya itong seven stars na tinutukoy ng tula.

'First star leads the way,
By its sword corpses formed like a hay.
Cantor and Palux meet along the way,
Blood spills all over the bouquet'

First star? Si Mavis kaya to? Marahil siya nga. Pero anong kinalaman nina Cantor at Palux. Di kaya...

'Tooth by tooth, eye to eye.
It is end up a lie.
Tiger to lion, moon became sun.
At the end, It is part of a plan'

Parang nablanko ako sa ikaapat na saknong. Si Mavis parin ba kaya ang tinutukoy nito.

'Leering won't satisfy,
Affection will imply.
Love will be its greatest downfall.
By its light, courage will double'

Lalo akong naguluhan. Si Mavis ang una, pangalawa si Jaicelle, ako ang pangatlo, si Ms. Leigh ang pang-apat, pang lima si Arvin, pang anim naman si Kuya Luke at ang ikapito si Micah.

Di kaya si Jaicelle ang dinedescribe ng ikalimang saknong. Parang labis na pagmamahal ang ipinapahiwatig ng saknong.

'Pride and perfection will take over,
But hiding its lust and savor.
By the power of binary fusion,
Nebula will be seen by their vision'

Ako na ata ang dinedescribe ng saknong. Aminin ko perfectionist ako at mataas ang pride ko. Pero lust at savor... haist! This is a fucking creepy shit.

'Basket will be fruitful,
New sunrise will be meaningful.
Terrible regret because of past,
Severe jealousy won't last'

Baka si Ms. Leigh. Pero di ko naman siya masyadong kilala.

'First or second, second or first,
You'll break the barrier because of thirst.
Mind will confuse because of the situation,
Fifth star bursts by choosing the best relation'

Arvin's turn siya ang pang lima eh. Ay oo nga pala halatang may gusto si Mavis kay Arvin tapos may girlfriend pa ang tao. Tsk! Sino ba naman kasing nakaimbento ng pagmamahal?

'Because of that inconvenient promise,
Pride will takes place with no malice.
But its unrevealed past will suddenly reveal,
Surely the brightest star will receive its third seal'

Kuya Luke! Di ko rin masyadong kilala ang taong to. Pero wait, brightest star? Marahil si Mavis ang brightest star.

'Control its emotions,
Or it will make motions.
Think for all the decisions,
Or make solutions'
