Chihoon felt something strange as he was lying down the ice coffin. Parang bumabalik ang lakas niya.
Matagal din siyang nakahiga sa ice coffin na yun dahil sa isang tao na nag drain ng dugo niya 100 years ago.
And for that 100 years, he was waiting for someone to wake him up.
Iginalaw-galaw niya ang kamay at paa niya and when he felt that he can now move his body, hee gets out from the ice coffin and with one swift move he was outside the museum.
He needs to find whoever killed him 100 years ago. Revenge. That will be his mission from now on. But the problem is nawala ang ala-ala niya of that day. He can't remember who drained his blood and why.
That's why he decided to find that girl. Ang babae na bumuhay sakanya gamit ang dugo niya. Alam niya na malaki ang maitutulong ng babaeng 'yon sa paghahanap niya sa kaaway niya.
Yes, he has woken up because of that girl's blood kaya hinanap niya ito through her dreams. At di nga siya nagkamali sa plano niya.
She drew him in her sketchpad kaya mas madali niyang natunton ang bahay nito.
For two weeks minamatyagan niya ito kaya nakita niya ang lahat ng luha na dinaloy ng mata niya dahil sa isang lalake. He heard all her sentiments and painful stories na sinasabi niya sa kanyang sketch which is his face. He even heard her wish that he was real and that she told everyone he was her boyfriend.
Doon na siya nag desisyong harapin siya. And this is the start of his mission.
At last, he found her. He found Shanelle.
_____________
Late nang nagising si Shanelle kinabukasan. Maybe because of a lot of things that taunts her mind. Gusto niyang makakuha ng mas madaming lakas by having a lot of sleep.
She looks around her room. Bakit nakaopen ang laptop ko? I didn't open it last night. She tilts her head.
Suddenly, narinig niya na parang nakaopen ang faucet niya sa banyo na para bang may naliligo doon. Bigla siyang nakaramdam ng kaba at the though of someone had entered her room.
She immediately grabs her perfume from her bag and slowly walks towards the bathroom. Sino ka man patay ka sakin.
She can hear the flowing water and someone taking a bath inside. The hell. Who is that? Kung magnanakaw yan bat pa niya nakuhang maligo dito? She wanted to scream and gets out of the room to call for her dad, pero naisip niya she can handle that alone.
Huminga siya ng malalim at hinawakan ang handle ng doorknob, while her right hand is holding the perfume that she can use as a defense.
"Sino ka man, talagang ---" as she tried to open the door, someone just opened it from the inside and that made her scream in shock.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!! Wh-who are you?! Why are y-you" she pointed at that guy who is half naked, with damp hair, and even wearing her towel. "...here in my room!" tinuloy niya ang pagsigaw.
Wala siyang kaide-ideya kung sino tong lapastangang trespasser na pumasok sa kwarto niya at ginamit pa ang banyo niya.
"You made me. And you even wish I was here," the guy grabbed the perfume from her hand at inamoy yun. "Balak mo bang i-spray 'to sa mata ko?" ngumiti ang lalake saka lumakad papuntang closet.
"Wh-what are you..." she followed him. "What are you saying really? Who are you and why are you in my room!" she grabbed his hand as he tried to open her closet.
"Pwede bang magbihis muna ako?" he opens her drawer and flips through her clothes. She grabs the t-shirt that Gabrielle gave her and her jogging shorts.
"Hey! What are you doing with my things! Give me those! Umalis ka na sa kwarto ko ngayon din!" she's still yelling, as she tried to take her clothes back, but he already wore them.
"Can you stop yelling at me? You're getting annoying now, really," he walks to her bed at umupo doon. "Di mo ba talaga ako namumukhaan?"
"Pano ko naman mamumukhaan ang isang trespasser aber? Kung di ka umalis tatawag na ako ng pulis!" she said and grabs her phone.
Kinuha ni Chihoon ang sketchpad ni Shanelle sa bed at ipinakita ito sakanya. "Tignan mo wala na ang sketch mo dito sa sketchpad mo." Tinanggal kasi ni Chihoon ang sketchpad niya at pinalitan ng empty sketchpad para magmukha talagang lumabas siya dito.
Shanelle looks at her sketchpad. Her masterpiece. It's gone. She grabs it from him and looks at it closely. "Wh-where is it? Where is my masterpiece!"
"It's me. I'm your masterpiece," he said and lays down her bed. "Ah, eto na ba ang feeling na matutulog sa malambot na kama? I didn't think its this good."
"What" tinignan niya ang lalake na ngayon ay nakahiga na sa kanyang kama. It can't be.
He looks like him. He looks like my masterpiece. He looks like Prince Chihoon. "How did you--- I mean... Why? Is this a dream? I don't think this is really happening!"
"I said stop yelling. Tsk," he looks at her. "Ako nga ang masterpiece mo. I'm the one you made. I'm Prince Chihoon. And this isn't a dream." He gets up and walks towards her. "Di ka ba masaya? Ah...can we celebrate it?" he pats her shoulders and walks towards the door. "Ngayong ganap na akong isang tao, exploring the world will be my first job," he said and went out.
Nanatiling nakatulala si Shanelle. She still can't get it. How can Prince Chihoon gets out from her sketchpad? How can he become a real human? Panong nangyari yun? She is still stunned and shocked when she noticed that he is not in the room anymore.
Dali-dali siyang tumakbo para hanapin siya. She found him at the kitchen taking out everything from the refrigerator.
"A-are you...r-really real?" she asked as she looks at him.
"You're really annoying you know? No wonder your ex-boyfriend left you," he said as he bites the apple he is holding.
"How did you even know that?"
"Gabi-gabi mo kaya akong binabasa ng mga luha mo telling me everything about how he hurts you, of course, I will know it."
Her mouth agapes. He's real. Oh my goodness he's real. What should I do?
"Wait, I can't possibly share with your things, right? Then how can I possibly have my own things?" sabi ng lalake nang di nagsalita si Shanelle. Nawiwirduhan man siya sa inaasta ng babae iniintindi na lang niya dahil nga nagulat pa siya sa pagiging tao niya.
Yes, and you can't stay here either. "You go buy your things. I will give you my credit card. And...ugh why is this even happening? You can't stay here. And sleep in my room!" she said holding her nape. Geez, this is making me crazy.
"That's no difference. Niyayakap mo naman ako tuwing gabi at hinahalikan," he said na nakapagpapula sa mukha ni Shanelle.
"Th-that's... that's different! You are a sketch then ngayon tao ka na. And until now I can't believe that you came to life. Aisht, what will I do with you, really?" she sits down in front of him and pursed her lips.
"Gaya nga ng sabi ko, you wished for me to be real. And you made me. Worst, pinangalandakan mo sa buong mundo na boyfriend mo ako."
She takes a deep breath. "Enough with that," she gets her bag and brought out her credit card. "Here, go buy your things tapos ako pupunta ako ng school. Don't you ever show yourself to anyone, understand?"
"How am I supposed to go out without showing myself? You dont expect me to be invisible, do you?" iiling-iling ang lalake saka tumayo. "Aalis na ko."
"Umuwi ka as early as 3PM! Thats before my dad comes home. And go straight to my room!"
He just waved his hand as he walks outside.
