Book 1: Possessive Madness (BL)

Forgotten Dream

Sam and I agreed to meet up earlier than usual so that we can have a chat with Ms. Amber before our usual hangout. I was walking in the middle of an empty hallway with my earphones plugged in my ears. I was busy playing with my phone when I felt something weird. I felt like someone was watching and following me. It creeped me out so I walk a little faster.

By the time I reach our meeting place, the strange feeling was gone. I took a deep sigh before resting beside a big tree. I simply sat there and stare blankly at the empty field. I was in that position when I felt my eyelids become heavier and a second later, I was in a slightly deep sleep.

------------

"COME BACK!! Please, huwag mo kong iwan." A man's deep voice cried out. I slowly opened my eyes only to be greeted by messy and chaotic scenery. Blood splattered around each of the dead bodies. Their neck and guts were ripped open, some of them got their limbs broken, and while the others are completely unrecognizable.

I slowly move towards the sobs of a man. I followed the fading sobs until I reach a corner of a wall where the man was kneeling while staring at a vast space of the foggy site. I watch him cry while repeatedly whispering "Please" in between his sobs.

I got curious as to why he kept on repeating that word until I notice his surrounding. The man was surrounded by a stack and scattered dead bodies swimming in their blood. Due to surprise, I gasp for air keeping my mouth wide open. I was still in a state of shock when I notice the man was staring at me. His red and puffy eyes flashed a lonely and guilty expression, his messy brown locks with a hint of blue highlights, and his topless body covered with blood scratches and handprints. I interlock with his stare until my eyes began tearing up. Floods of tears kept on falling down my cheeks until he called out "Theo" as he said that, everything went pitch black.

--------------------

I felt a light shake on my shoulder that woke me up. I slowly open my eyes and sat properly. Once my eyes adjust to the sudden change of light, Sam's worried expression greeted me.

"Oh, kanina ka pa ba?" I asked.

"Ayos ka lang ba?"

"Oo naman, bakit?" I replied. I am quite confused at his question that made me knit my brows.

"Naiyak ka kasi." He answered before he sat beside me.

"Ako naiyak?" I asked. And then the picture of a blurry scene popped in my head. I slowly raise my hand and wipe the dried tear marks.

We stayed in a silent atmosphere while I recall what had happened in my dream. But for some reason, I can't remember what it is, which is odd considering that I saw it in my dreams.

"Morris," He called. I looked at him. I kinda find it weird as he looks so worried and uneasy. "what if..." He started. I patiently waited for the words that come next but I stopped him as I saw Ms. Amber walking out of an empty stock room. I told Sam about it and we immediately switched glances before standing up and approaching her.

"Good morning, Ms. A." I greeted. She was a bit startled when she saw us which build our curiosity more.

"Oh g- g- good morning. How may I help you?" she replied while regaining her composer.

"We were just wondering, Is Garcia a transferee? How come we haven't seen or even heard of him/her before?" Sam asked.

"Oh, Mr. Garcia had just transferred here. They just moved here a couple of weeks ago."

"So...is Mr. Gar—" I stopped when I saw a guy walk out of the same room Ms. Amber exited from. I looked at Sam and he was also looking at me; both with a curious expression visible on our faces. Ms. Amber also looked at the guy and almost instantly her face change. It became somewhat, scared? "Why?" I thought.
