The ABCD Story

Project #4

Project #4:
Dorothy's Own Case:
The Red Blooded Aristocrat And Hearts

I'm currently reading a book in my apartment while the police is investigating a crime outside. Base on what I have heard when I went outside is that, our alleged drug lord neighbor was murdered.

How sad life is, yeah?

By the way, my name is Dorothy Jereanne L. Pascual. An 18 years old girl who's damn in love with books especially those with a touch of dramatic mysteries.

Who don't even know Sherlock Holmes, right? He's famous.

But sorry to disappoint you, I don't like Sherlock Holmes. Instead, I adore Professor James Moriarty. I really do have a twisted brain. I just don't like what people likes the most. Baliktad ako, kumbaga.

When everyone loves panda and stitch, here I am, liking the same bear stuffed toy na nabili lang sa Blue Magic. When everyone likes milk tea, here I am, liking the same coffee everyday. My beloved Mocha.

Ah, let's drop the topic. I'm currently reading Project Loki Volume 1 Part 1, my classmate gave me the four books of Project Loki because she said she can't understand the story. But it's very damn interesting! Huh! People nowadays don't appreciate such good story.

Dadaan nga ako sa bookstore mamaya, I will check if they now have stocks of mystery books. I also want to buy Bob Ong's books, my classmate recommended me that. Hindi daw mystery, though, okay lang. Hindi naman ako mapili sa libro.

Tumayo na ako at naligo. Pupunta na ako, ngayon na.

Nang makababa na ako nakita ko na nakaposas ang asawa ng pinatay naming kapitbahay na ang pangalan na naaalala ko ay... Greg? Greg ba? Ugh! Don't ask me. I'm not that good at names. Walang kwenta, excess baggages. Kasama din sa nakita kong inaresto ay iyong madalas na kinikita noong babae kapag wala iyong asawa niyang namatay. Tss. Love triangle.

Nang sasakay na ako ng bike, nakita ko naman na lumabas ang isang lalaki kasama ang mga pulis. They are all flashing smiles at the guy but the guy is emotionless like heck.

Napatingin ito sa gawi ko at tinaasan ako ng kilay. I look away and drove the bicycle. Pupunta ako ng mall. Uunahin ko muna sigurong puntahan ang Pandayan Bookshop bago ang National Bookstore.

Nang makarating doon, nakita ko naman ang kumpulan ng tao sa may parking lot. What the hell is happening? At sa parking space pa ng mga bicycles? Anong nangyayari?

Nang makalapit ako, nakita ko ang isang pamilyar na mukha na nakahandusay sa sahig at naliligo sa sariling dugo. Tinignan ko naman ang mga tao sa paligid.

Talagang inuna muna nila ang pagkuha ng pictures bago nila tinawag ang security at ambulansya, mga inutil. Tss.

"Move away, people! Talagang inuna niyo muna ang pagkuha ng pictures bago tawagin ang mga security at ambulansya! You! Call the police! And you! Call an ambulance! At kayo namang tatlong mga lalaki kayo, paalisin niyo ang mga tao. Mga walang kwenta," saad ko at tinalikuran sila. Tinignan ko ang crime scene, this is my parking spot. Ugh! May masamang alaala na dito! Damn the one who's behind this freaking murder.

Hindi na bago sa akin ang makakita ng mga patay na katawan. Kinuha ko ang gloves na shoulder bag ko at sinuot ito. I checked the victims pulse, buhay pa siya!
