Chapter 64: Hiding
It was two in the morning when I woke up because of my dream. Mga alas kwatro na ako nakatulog muli dahil sa kakaisip sa panaginip.
And it's now seven in the morning and I still tremble with the thought of my dream. That was... horrifying. Prof Leonsio was like a psychopath in my dream!
Wait... Maybe I am going too far? It was just a dream! As I have observed with Prof Leonsio, he is an introvert... Well that's what he's showing. When he doesn't discuss, he's being silent. He's being silent and he has no emotion on his face. So why did he instantly turn into a psychopath in my mind?!
I'm actually overthinking. I always do. Of course it was all a dream! Weird scenarios occur in your mind when you are having a dream... And I shouldn't be thinking too much like this.
An idea crossed my mind. I think I still have the paper that Prof Leonsio had stamped on!
Agad-agad ko iyong hinanap at salamat naman at nakita ko pa. It was included in a pile of my cream laid papers, which I have said, the papers that are used here in Death University.
I slightly trembled at the sight of the stamp. I slowly put it near my face so I can smell it. At halos masuka ako! Shit!
I accidentally crumpled the paper and I immediately went to the bathroom to puke. Fuck it, I can't smell it anymore, hindi ko kaya! It really smells gross! Ako lang ba ang nakakapansin nito? How about the other students?
"Zaya, ayos ka lang?"
Nagitla naman ako kay Julia. Pero agad akong bumawi at ipinakita kong ayos lang ako. I tried my best to act like I'm fine.
Mabuti lang at sa first period namin ay walang pasok! I'm not in the mood to go out. Should I skip classes today? I can do that but Dark will be suspicious. And besides, I actually need to observe Prof Leonsio's doings.
Sandali, naalala ko bigla... He has no class every morning. He only has afternoon classes! It's possible that he's not in his classroom right now!
Wait what the fuck am I thinking now? I'm gonna sneak inside his darn classroom, really? Tapos kung mahanap na naman ako ni Dark, ano ang sasabihin ko? I don't want to lie to him anymore... to him and to Julia.
But I promise now, I'll tell them everything after I sneak inside Prof Leonsio's classroom. I need to!
Dali-dali akong naligo at nagbihis. I also wore a jacket with a hood para maitago ko yung mukha ko. Dali-dali akong uminom ng gatas para may laman naman ang tiyan ko.
"Juls, I'll be back. T-Tutal wala naman tayong klase ngayong first period, I'm just gonna go to t-the fountain area." Damn, this is so bad!
Nakita ko ang pagtataka sa kanyang mga mata. "What? It's so early. Ano naman ang gagawin mo doon?"
"Well, I'm sure it's c-cold there since it's early in the morning. I just want some fresh air."
"Okay then. Balik ka kaagad ha?"
"Yes, I will." Sabi ko ng may ngiti sa labi at dali-dali ako umalis mula sa dorm namin.
I'm panting because I am running just to get faster to Prof Leonsio's classroom. I am also holding the hood of my jacket tightly para matago ang mukha ko.
When I finally reached my destination, I was panting so hard and I calmed myself first. Agad kong nakitang naka-lock yung pinto. Shit! Sana gagana itong hair pin na dala ko!
May mga estudyante na sa paligid at ang iba ay napatingin sa ginagawa ko pero saglit lang. Hindi rin naman nila kita yung mukha ko. Maybe they think I was ordered to open the door or something. Kung ganon ang iniisip nila, edi mabuti. And if they don't care at all, edi mas mabuti.
