Tulala lamang ako sa loob ng kwarto ko and I sometimes heard something or I am seeing things when I was alone.

After that night, I went back to our house and sinalubong ako ng walang humpay na sermon ni Papa. But I remain numb. He left. And it's been one month pero hindi pa rin siya bumalik. Alalang-alala na ako. What if he will hurt himself again? What if some things are triggering his disease?

I curled my self on my bed as I heard a loud knock.

"MADISON! ANO NA? HABANG BUHAY KA NA BA MAGKUKULONG JAN? 'NI HINDI MO NA NGA NABABAWASAN ITONG GA—"

"Shut up! Just leave me alone!"

And that's it. The place turned out to be gloomy again. I shred basins of tears already since he left. Gabi-gabi akong lumalabas and I always checked his house, but I didn't see any person or just a silhouette alone, wala talaga.

Almost ten PM, I checked if they are still in the sala but I saw nothing and that is my cue to go outside. I passed the dirty chamber, feeling the night breeze and my nape is cold already.

While rubbing my arms up and down, I wrinkled my forehead when I saw the small gate, slightly opened. Nabuhayan ako ng dugo. Dali-dali akong pumasok hoping to see someone inside, and my hopes didn't failed me because I saw him, sitting on their couch while covering his face.

"HI!"

I simply said because I am still not sure if who is this persona I saw.

He turned his head at me and stand up then he suddenly hug me. My heart beats faster like as if my heart wants to get out from its ribcage. Damn. I miss him.

"Madi..."

"R-raven?" he nodded his head while nuzzling his head on my neck. I heard him sob and my neck became wet.

He's crying.

"I missed you. Bakit nawala ka dito sa bahay?"

"W-what? But you left. Drake Gonzalez left that night. He said he will go somewhere. He hates me..."

"N-no... No one's hating you Madi," he cupped my face and he leaned his head to mine.

"Because I, myself alone, loves you in this short period of time. Madi, you're the only person who appreciates my existence. You made me live.."

"...you are wrong Madi. You aren't made for me. I live because of you. My purpose is to love you, we both have our own purpose. And we will support each other. You are my companion..hmm?"

I closed my eyes, feeling his scent as he slowly bowed his head and meet my lips.

He kissed me. Damn it, he fucking kissed me!

He then let go and smiled.

"Madi, I love you."

I smiled again and closed my eyes then I sat on the couch, "I love you too..."

He chuckled and I saw him turning his back before going upstairs.

I giggled and let out my kilig hormones.

Malandi! Malandi! Malandi!

I bit my lip, feeling his soft kiss. Hihi.

Napalingon ako nang bumukas ang main door at iniluwa doon si Raven na naka Tuxedo.

Huh?

Nilingon ko ulit ang hagdanan and then to the doorway.

"Raven, I thought nasa itaas ka?"

Nakakunot ang noo niyang nakatingin sa akin. "Who are you? And who's Raven?"

Napatigagal ako sa narinig at tinitigan siya sa mata.

What is this? Another persona? What?!
"I—uhm..." I can't talk directly because of his intimidating aura.

He fetch something from his pocket and I saw a phone, "I'll call the police..."

"NO! Raven stop kidding me!"

"Raven, what?!" he put his phone down and continue, "Miss, there is no Raven here and no one's using this house already, so why the fuck are you here?!"

"Raven?! Is this your another persona? Tell me!"

I went after him and cupped his face. He step backward at hinawakan ng napaka-higpit ang braso ko.

Surprisingly, he threw me outside and tumama ang mukha ko sa kalsada.

"Go away or else I will call the police."

Pumasok agad siya at hahabulin ko pa sana siya pero naisara na biya ang maliit na gate.

Napahagulhol ako habang nakasuporta ang isang kamay ko sa gate.
What was that? Who is he? I didn't know he has another persona.

I can't take for another day without him.

Raven...
