Dear Journal,

The room was ringing with whir sounds, which my ear couldn't quite comprehend. The sound has been in my ears the whole day, from the moment I woke up until tonight; my ears are fizzing with weird huge fly sounds.

The air in this room is sickening. John and Michael have moved out of the room, Mom said it was so the virus can't get them. I don't know what she was saying, am I infectious? All I know was that I vomitted tons of rubbish this morning but gosh I'm not sick.

The more they left me inside the room alone, the more I feel myself quiver in fear. What if the shadow yesterday hunts me again while I'm asleep?

Ilang araw nalang at pasukan na. Magiging isang ganap na high school student na ako. Sana nga lang ay hindi maging hadlang 'tong nararamdaman ko sa pagpasok sa unang araw ng klase. Oh damn, the sound of the flies are worsening—like they are inside my ears.

Anyways, sabi ni Mommy baka may nakain lang akong masama, so I'm just hoping na 'yon lang ang rason. God, now I'm seeing a man in front of me. His legs are long and he is wearing a black formal pants. I want to look up to see who it is but I'm scared. Help, all I'm seeing are too much, make it stop.
