He's Ineffable

Chapter 2

Cielo's POV

We are now heading back home after the case. I felt disappointed again of myself for what I just did earlier. I failed to identify the culprit, once again. I almost put Mr. Gajardo on jail just because of a wrong deduction and judgements, and I felt sorry for him. Para akong minumulto ng konsensiya at kahihiyan. Di tuloy ako maka focus sa pagmamaneho.

"Cielo, whats wrong?", tanong ni Blake ng may pagtataka.

"I was just frustrated dahil sa nangyari kanina.", sagot ko.

"Di ka parin talaga nagbabago. Hahaha.", Nakatawa niyang sabi.

"Anong ibig mong sabihin Blake?", nagtataka kong tanong.

"Would you still remember the Trash Thingy Case?", tangong niya.

"Ah oo nga. Parang yung nangyari lang kasi kanina.", sabi ko.

~Flashback

I am now walking at the hallway straight to the cafeteria. Nakaramdam na kasi ako ng gutom kakakinig sa History Teacher naming napaka pabebe magsalita. Paulit ulit nalang kasi yung tinuturo. Nang malapit na ako sa Cafeteria ay may napulot akong crumpled paper. Hindi kasi normal sa school namin na may pakalat kalat na basura. Strict kasi school namin kaya pinulot ko ang papel and just by looking at it, it's just an ordinary paper. I looked at it out of curiousity and a message or whatsoever you call this, ang nakasulat. May naka Bold at may naka plain text lang. I thought it was just a piece of poem but what's intriguing are the words which were used. It goes like this, 

"Thought your kind,

Right girl every boy wants,

Alluring is what suits you,

Somewhat perfect.

but I was wrong.

Hoochie is who you really are,

Boys call girl.

Intelligent yet a total mess.

Nothing but a dirt."

"Parang may mali dito ah", bulong ko sa aking sarili. Agad kong tinawagan si Blake para magpaturo dahil alam kong expert siya pagdating sa codes and ciphering it, which is my weakness.

"Hello", sabi ko.

"Oh Cielo bat napatawag ka?", sagot niya.

"May nagtapon kasi sakin nitong papel", panimula ko.

"Tapos ano gagawin ko? Gusto mo ako magtapon niyan?", sarkastiko niyang sagot.

"Hindi, may nakasulat kasi pero hindi ko matukoy kung may message ito, alam mo namang mahina ako pagdatin sa pagdecipher ng codes. Would you mind if you can come here and help me?", tugon ko kay Blake.

"Oh sure, I'm so bored here too. I need real codes to entertain myself.", mayabang niyang sagot.

After 10 mins, he's already here. Sing bilis ng kidlat.

"Oh, Cielo!", bati ni Blake.

"Hello Blake, ang bilis mo ah.", sabi ko.

"So where is the paper?", blake asked.

Binigay ko sa kanya ang papel and then he sat on the nearest bench.

"Bolds and plain texts huh?", sabi niya ng may ngiting dala.

"So ano na?", me.

"I already encountered a code like this so just give me a minute and the message will reveal itself.", sabi niya na medyo mayabang ang dating.
