"No updates in Facebook since 2018. No instagram, twitter at kahit email add man lang. Ang classic ng Zhayne na to." I cry out of frustration. How can someone be so outdated?
Its been days since we went to his school and still no sign of him. Nag-abang kami sa school gate nila for 3 days in a row kaso wala talagang ni kaluluwa ni Zhayne ang nagpakita. Nalaman din naming next month pa ang major exams nila kaya siguradong hindi talaga siya magpapakita until then. At first, I thought finding him is annoyingly easy. I take it back now. Imagining myself looking for him for 7 times in a row is utterly troublesome.
"Alam ko na kung paano natin siya mahahanap." biglang singit ni Dee. She's been scrolling her feed since she arrived.
"Pano?"
"Huwag mong hanapin. Panigurado kusang lilitaw yan." sagot niya sabay tawa. I just rolled my eyes.
"If only I have enough time Dee, you bet I would." I typed in google, 'possible ways of finding a man' but all I received is about dating someone. Mas lalo akong nainis. "When I find him, I'm going to crush him!" I clenched my fist out of desperation.
"Hello Deenatics. Kamusta kayong lahat? Let's play Detective Conan right now. I'm looking for someone and I really need your help. " bigla akong nabuhayan sa sinabi ni Dee. She's talking on her phone at napatayo kaagad ako para lapitan siya.
"Geez. . . Dee, why didn't you think of that from the very start? It could have saved us some time." reklamo ko as I sat beside her. She throw me a cold look.
"Wow ha. Your welcome. Nagreklamo pa to" Dee answered and I just give her my most innocent smile.
"So if you happen to know Mr. Evil-Looking-Zhayne, the bassist of The Herose band. Please contact us right away. It will be a big help. Thanks guys. See yah." and with that pinatay na niya ang phone. "O ayan ha. Sobrang dami mo nang utang sakin. Make sure na makakapasok na tayo sa public school para matuloy ko na yung vlog ko."
"Thank you like a million timesssss" sabi ko sabay yakap sa kanya. Bigla namang nag-ring ang phone ko.
"Si Mumu?" I said looking at the screen. Weird. It's 9:00 in the evening already. Ba't siya tumatawag? Di pa ba siya nakauwi? "Hello Mu? San ka?"
"Mimi, we need your help." I heard the desperation in his voice. Ramdam kong he's in trouble.
"What happened? Are you okay?" nag-aalalang tanong ko. Wala ang parents ko ngayon. They're on a business trip kaya kaming dalawa lang ang naiwan sa bahay. Sa sobrang busy ko sa kakahanap kay Zhayne, nakalimutan ko nang alamin kung nakauwi na ba tong kambal ko.
"No I'm fine. Its Bryn." pangalan pa lang biglang lumakas na ang tibok ng puso ko.
"Anong nangyari kay Bryn?" Please. Huwag naman sanang bad news to.
"We have a taping for a TV program right now kaso one hour ng delayed dahil hindi pa dumadating si Bryn. We can't contact him. His phone is dead and no one saw him today. Nag-alala na kami kung napano siya. Gusto sana naming tumulong maghanap pero di kami pinayagan ng manager namin na lumabas. Can you help me find him, Mimi?"
