"Alystra is missing"

"What?! Wait lang Iron, pinuntahan kasi ni Crystal yung kung saan mo na track yung phone ni Kalirea, she's driving my car and I'm chasing after her right now!"

"How did she found that out?!"

"I'll explain later, basta sumunod nalang kayo ni Neivan!"

Bawat segundo at minutong lumilipas kaba lang ang nararamdaman ko, baka kung ano na mangyare kay Crystal. Hindi ko hahayaang masaktan siya, I once promised to protect her at any cost.

"Sir, hindi ko pwede sundan yung kotse, baka mahuli ho ako ng pulis" sabi ng driver kaya tumingin ako and Crystal is beating the red light, making other cars to bump into each other.

"Sige kuya, liko ka nalang muna dyan" sabi ko at tinext si Iron kung saan ba ang location where Kalirea was tracked. He sended me the address and I showed it to the taxi driver.

"Ah sir ang layo nyan" the driver complain

"What do you want? Doble ang babayad ko sayo, o gusto mo triple? Kuya kahit buhay ibabayad ko sayo!" I yelled

"Sige sir, triple ha" sabi ng driver at nagdrive na

Sabi na eh, pera lang talaga ang way.

Nang makarating ako ay binayaran ko na ang taxi driver at agad agad na lumabas. Nakita ko ang kotse ko at tinignan ang bintana, it looks like wala na siya.

Probinsya na to at wala na gaanong tao at puro puno na ang nakapaligid. Pero may limang building na magkakadikit dikit.

I guess thats where Crystal went to. I ran towards the building and saw that the building is old, rusty and vines were all around it.

The gate is wide open and saw dead people on the ground, are they even dead?

"CRYSTAL! CRYSTAL!" I shouted and then I saw Crystal throwing a knife and hitting the man's stomach.

"Ay sayang sa ulo sana" I heard Crystal said

I ran towards her at hinarap siya sa akin

"CRYSTAL! What are you doing?! Alam mo bang alalang alala ako sayo?! Why did you go on your own? Papatayin mo ko sa kaba eh"

"Larkin, hindi mo kasi naiintindihan! Kalirea and Xyrene are like my bestfriends! They are the only ones who stayed by my side! They are the only one who really cared! So this time, I'll find them, I'll save them, I'll do what ever it takes" she said

"But you shouldn't just go by yourself! Who knows what will happen? Paano kung isinunod ka nila kaila Kalirea?! At hindi lang naman sila ang may pakielam sayo! I care for you too! Hindi mo ba iniisip ang mararamdaman ko kung mawala ka?!" I yelled

"Eh ano bang nararamdaman mo?" She asked

"Pagalala sayo, pagkagalit sa sarili ko kasi hinayaan kita na magisa!" I answered

"Eh bakit ba kasi nagaalala ka sa akin? Ano ba ako sayo? We're not even friends!" Her words that shattered my whole being

"I care because I love you. I've always wanted to say this. I care, I'm worried and I'm happy because of you. Did you get your answer?" I said. Its something that I've always want to tell her but I couldn't because I'm afraid that she'll reject me again.

But whats the point of being afraid? Nothing will come out of it.

Silence filled the whole room until Iron and Neivan came.

"Guys ano na?" Iron said

"Whats the news?"

"We went to Alystra's earlier to check on her but her mom said na kahapon pa siya hindi umuuwi. We went to places where she could be and called her. We asked all her other friends but nobody told me where she was" Neivan said
