I'm the Reincarnation of a Love Story

Unveil

Someone's POV

While rummaging their kitchen's pantry, Roy suddenly felt a disturbing gist of air in front of him. Natigilan ito sa ginagawa at napatindig ng maayos. Seryoso nitong tiningnan ang pinsang kasalukuyang binabasa ang step-by-step procedure ng souffle omelete na tinatangka nilang gayahin.

"Dude, did you feel that?", agad nitong tanong sa nakatatandang pinsan. Napalingon naman agad sa kaniya si Peter at sinimangutan ito. Roy is a medium, their cousin is pretty much aware of the third dimension and Peter would always dismiss his cousin's visions.

"Roy, alam mong duwag ako sa ganiyan."

Roy laughed at him. Alam niya ito, pero hindi naman niya ito tinatakot. Sadyang vocal lang ito sa mga nararamdaman niya sa paligid.

"I just thought I felt something a while ago.", Roy shrugged off his shoulders. Winalang bahala niya ang naramdaman, pero muli itong natigilan dahil muli na naman siyang nakaramdam ng kakaiba. 

Tumigil ito sa ginagawa at tumingin sa kawalan. Napansin ito ni Peter at agad na sinigawan ito, "Don't even try to communicate with ghosts Roy, I freakin' swear I'll hit you in the head!"

Tiningnan niya ng masama si Peter, he gestured him to keep quiet. Dahan dahang huminga ng malalim si Roy at pinakiramdaman ang paligid. He can communicate with them through visions, he usually shuts them down but this situation is different. There's a will force that's been trying to get his attention. On occasions like this, alam niyang seryoso ito.

"Okay. What do you want?", casual nitong tanong sa kawalan. Kinakabahang lumapit sa kaniya si Peter matapos nitong patayin ang stove. Hawak pa nito ang palita at nanginginig na kumapit sa balikat ni Roy.

A moment of silence and Roy immediately got the message. A weak entity showed him their Grandma's ring and a dark aura emanating from it. Nanlaki ang mga mata niya at agad na bumaling kay Peter.

"Did Sam lost Lola's ring?", agad niyang tanong kay Peter. He almost fainted.

"Did grandma showed herself to you?!", nangangatog na tanong nito sa kaniya.

"Idiot, no. This one is a guide. There's a spirit with a huge grudge on her ring."

Nangilabot ang katawan ni Peter. 

"Grudge? Anong ibig mong sabihin?"

"Spirits are usually attracted with things that have sentimental values to them. Maaring out of good or bad memory. Iyong singsing ni Grandma, a spirit is attracted to it. I saw in my vision that it has something to do with that person's death.", paliwanag nito sa kaniya.

Peter gave him a very confused look.

"Makinig kang mabuti. May mga kaluluwa sa mundong ito na mas pinipiling lumagi dito ng matagal. Ang dahilan? Maaaring may hindi sila natapos na misyon or mayroong isang bagay o tao na nagkakadena sa kanila dito sa mundong ito. In Lola's case, may isang kaluluwa na may malaking attachment sa singsing niya. Ayon sa nakita ko kanina, masamang vibe ang nandodoon sa singsing na 'iyon. Kailangan niyo iyong itapon, sunugin or mas maganda kung ibaon niyo."

Peter gasped. Unti-unti niyang napapagtagpi ang mga pangyayari simula noong pumunta sila sa haunted house doon sa kabilang lote. Bigla iyong nawala. Napansin ni Roy ang pamumutla ni Peter at natatarantang niyang inalog ito.

"Peter. Where is Samantha?", nag-aalalang tanong niya rito.

"She's...looking for Lola's ring..."

Naguguluhan akong lumapit ng dahan dahan sa salamin. My grandmother's reflection was still there and alam ko na hindi ako nananaginip.
