"Skyla, are you going home?" Leah asked as she ties her hair. Kakatapos lang ng shift namin at wala ring pinagbago sa skills ko. Bulyaw pa rin inabot from my trainer.

"Yeah," to be completely honest, ayoko pang umuwi kasi I'm still staying with my Uncle. At medyo, hindi pa ako komportable sa ngayon matapos ang pagtatalo naming dalawa. "San ka?" tanong ko kay Leah. 

"Dyan lang ako sa may dalawang kanto," ngise nya sa akin.

"Really? Dyan din daan ko. Sabay ka na sa akin." I grabbed my keys from my bag. We walked together toward my car. I'm thinking of asking Detective Michaels to get some of my stuff from my previous condo, kahit mga damit lang ay okay na.

I opened my car door, "Let's go." ani ko. Napatingin ako kay Leah. She has her hands on her mouth at mukhang gulat na gulat. "Bakit?" pagtataka ko naman. Mukha kasi syang nakakita ng multo.

"Anak mayaman ka, no!" may halong bintang ang tono ng pananalita ni Leah. Hindi ko alam kung matatawa ako sa kanya o hahayaan na lang sya kung ano man ang nais nyang isipin.

"Wow ang ganda naman ng kotse mo, Skyla" kung pwede lang siguro kumislap ang mga mata ay siguro kanina pa kumikislap ang mga mata ni Leah. "Magkano 'to? Try kong mag-5'6 sa bumbay" sabay hagalpak nya ng tawa.

"5'6?" I asked curiously. Is she referring to height or she's talking about something else that I'm not aware of.

"Uyy, di alam ang 5'6. Google mo nalang, homework mo yan ah! Sabihin mo sa akin sagot bukas sa duty." She giggled and got inside my car. I shook my head at her silliness. I smiled too, I think Leah and Alexavia will get along if they meet each other.

I started the engine of my car and started driving. Mabuti nalang at hindi masyadong traffic ngayon kaya mabilis akong makakauwi sa amin. I just hope that my Uncle isn't waiting for me since I didn't go home yesterday. I'm still trying to figure it out how he can track me? Is it because of the necklace? Napahawak naman ako sa suot kong kwintas.

I remember back when I was a kid, Uncle gave Anthony and me some type of necklace. He told us that wherever we will go, he'll know. I'll ask someone to look into it. Hindi pa ako masyadong kampante kung tatanggalin ko ito baka lalong maghinala at magalit si Uncle sa akin.

"Lalim ng iniisip ah! Nag-away kayo ng jowa mo?" I glanced at her question.

"Psssh, iba talaga pag mga rich kids." Ani nya habang tumatawa, when she calmed down, she asked again, "Nag-away ba kayo ng BF mo? Ang lalim kasi ng iniisip mo dyan."

At the mention of the word 'BF,' I felt my cheeks blushed crimson, and an image of Ivo popped in my head. I released a shaky laugh, "I don't have a boyfriend. Ano bang sinasabi mo."

"Kunwari ka pa! Ganda mo nga eh saka matangkad ka pwede kang model." Papuri ni Leah sa akin. Lalo namang naginit ang pisnge ko.

I got used to of guys complimenting how I look, but this is the first time that someone complimented me and what makes it unique is it's from a girl na ka-edad ko lang. Kaya hindi ko mapigilan ang kiligin ng kaunti.

"Wala talaga," I say, smiling.

"Yieeee, yung mga ngite mo." Leah says. Napansin kong maganda siya, may shoulder length syang buhok. Makinis, kayumangging balat at matangos na ilong.

"You're pretty too, Leah," I told her, and she blushed. Sabay hampas sa braso ko na ikinagulat ko. Today is the first day we met, but I feel like Lean, and I have been friends for a long time. It's easy to be around and be friends with her.
