THE decision will still be from us and not from them. They said it is for us to find so I gave a three days deal for them to stop. But it is our choice also to not do anything to find out what this is.

It's already midnight and here I am still widely awake because of this thoughts. How will we find out? What if something happened already and I didn't notice it? We don't even know what it is to find. Mystery? Dark past? If that, then I'll gladly search for it but sadly, it is not.

I wave my hands in the air and snap it like how I always do it when I can't sleep. It became a habit of mine and as much as I want to stop it I just can't, not until now.

Fog? Smoke? What the hell was that? I wave my hands again only to hear a voice from the balcony.

"I see you've found out already,"

Bumangon ako at agad na nagtungo sa balcony kung saan nanggaling ang boses ng nagsalita.

"It wouldn't be hard for you guys then to help us, huh?"

I immediately saw the cold aura he always wear. His hoody that makes him look more dark and that messy long hair looks so intimidating, I'm not intimidated though.

"What...What are you doing here? Haven't heard of trespassing?" I asked.

"Let's say I have the permission to enter here?" Wow. He can talk.

"Well I can't complain to that. This isn't our house anyway. But the person who gave you permission must know that the people who stays here are girls, right?"

"Uh-huh," lang ang sagot niya,

"So what exactly are you doing here in my room's balcony?"

"Why don't we talk about your ability?"

"What ability are you talking about? Gosh the people around here are sick."

"Hindi ka ba tinuruan ng mga magulang mo sa ibig sabihin ng ability? Gusto mong turuan kita?"

Huh! Bakit ang hambog ng lahat ng mga lalaki dito? But then I remembered what happened earlier before I came here.

"What kind of tricks are you guys pulling?" I asked.
