ALEXANDRA'S

"Help me, please." she's holding my hand, pleading me.
"I c-can't." I stuttered, for I know who she is.
The video, that mysterious video. She's there, and she was killed.
"Please help me, please!" she shouted which made me woke up.
My sweat dropping like bullets, I'm here gasping for air. It all happened in a flash. From the strange dream about my mother, to the unknown flash drive then the creepy video, and now this?! This dream gives me chills. It is just a dream but it felt so....... real.
I still manage to do my morning routine, it is still pretty early pero aagahan ko nalang na pumunta sa school. Para di na naman ako maawardan ng sermon ni ma'am, mag-aadjust nalang ako.
I didn't ate breakfast and just drove off to school. I cannot eat properly because of all the thoughts going inside my head, and also dahil nandun si dad. I don't want to eat with him, naalala ko lang lalo yung mga masasamang ginawa niya.
I went to the school early but my squad came earlier, mukhang natauhan na ata kami sa mga sermon ng teachers namin. They said na nasa tambayan sila kaya tumungo na ako dun.
Pagkadating ko dun ay nakaupo na sila sa pwesto nila, , mukhang ako nalang yung hinihintay. Umupo ako sa tabi ni Azekiel, and he's not looking at me. Why would he look at me naman? Stop dreaming, Alex.
"It still creeps me out." Maddie suddenly blurted kaya napatingin kaming lahat sa kanya. "Hindi ko maalis sa isip ko yung nangyari kahapon, alam kong ganun din kayo." sabi naman ni Becca at tinignan kaming lahat, but she looked more on me. I gulped then looked at the others, and they are all now looking at me. I just sighed and decided to tell them.
"The girl on the video, she appeared in my dream." pag-uumpisa ko. They looked so focused on what I am saying. "She's asking for..... my help, p-pero di ako pumayag." nahihirapan kong sabi.
"Saan mo ba nakuha yung flash drive? Bakit ganun yung laman?" nagtataka pero may halong galit na tanong ni Dom. "You wouldn't believe me if I explain it." naiinis kong sabi pero Dom just scoffed. "After all that happened to us yesterday, you still think that we're not gonna believe you?" naiinis na sumbat sakin ni Dom so I just sighed heavily.
"R-Remember the second day of our class, in the cafeteria. We were heading back in our classroom kaso nagpaiwan ako. Sumunod naman ako kaagad pero sobrang dami ng tao kaya medyo natagalan ako. " kwento ko sa kanila na may halong kaba at takot. It is so scary that I'm literally shaking while I tell them this but I tried my best not to stutter.
"Then I saw the flash drive on the floor. I asked kung sino yung may-ari but there is someone who grabbed me by my shoulder, I cannot distinguish yung itsura niya pero nakacapa siya." I breathed in and out as I tried to tell them the story.
"It said something like,"Beware of him. Don't do it, you'll regret it." and I was about to look at that person pero tinawag nako ni Kiel kasi malelate na tayo. That's it." pagtatapos ko sa story and tried to read their expression. Some of them are mad, some of them does not know what to do. All of us are fucked up.
"Then why did you showed it to us? Huh?! Para madamay kami sa mga nangyayari sa buhay mo?!" biglaang bulaslas ni Seb at sinubukang atakihin ako pero pinigilan siya ni Dom. "Ikaw ang may kasalanan neto! Ikaw ang magpapahamak saming lahat!" he said, still trying to escape from Dom's grip.
"I just showed the flash drive, but I didn't said to open it. I repeat, I DIDN'T SAID THAT YOU SHOULD OPEN IT! I tried to warn you pero hindi ka nakinig! You were immature that time, still thinking about porn! Like what the fuck, who are you to say that I am the one who brought this to us?!" halos mangiyak-ngiyak kong sabi sa kanila, they just remained silent after that. No one dared to talk, even Seb became quiet.
"Tandaan niyo, I am also a victim. But I've been suffering for days because of this mess, I hope you know that. If you think that I brought this shit to all of us, then fine. I'll handle this myself, and I don't need all of you to join me. I'll bring you out of this mess, don't worry." I said before I left them, tears continuously flowing on my cheeks. I tried to wipe it out but I would not stop, all that happened back there is just so painful for me.
It hurts to hear those words coming from your friends, from the people that you consider as your family. Their expressions says that they are somehow agreeing with Seb, which made it more hurtful. Don't worry, I will bring them out of this mess; even if my life depends on it.

It is already lunch time, and I went to the cafeteria alone. I don't want to face them, I don't want to involve them to the mess I brought. I'm gonna deal with it myself, I just need some time alone. I probably look like a loner right now, I may look pitiful.
I can feel that they are glancing at me but I don't mind it, and I don't care. All of them hate me now, and I can't help myself to feel the same. Nagagalit ako kasi ganon yung tingin nila sakin, nagagalit ako kasi wala man lang nagtanggol sa akin kahit ni isa; even Kiel.
The only one who understands me the most and the one who has been on my side no matter what, didn't even tried to defend me. Maybe he agrees to them that I am the one who is at fault here.
I feel alone, that's for sure. I tried to eat but I can't, my sadness eats me. I just stared at the plate of food until the bell rang, dahil doon ay iniwan ko ang pagkaing di ko man lang ginalaw at tumungo na sa classroom.
As I walked inside our room, I saw na magkakasama silang lahat. Maybe they don't need me anymore, maybe they don't want me to join them anymore.
I just sat beside my classmate and just focused on the class. This class is so boring, my squad and I are supposed to be laughing now. Ugh! Why do you keep on thinking about them?!
"That's all for today, students. Class Dismissed!" then the bell rang which means all of the classes are already finished. I fixed my things, medyo marami akong gamit kaya medyo natagalan ako kaya ako pati yung squad nalang ang natitira sa room. They are whispering to each other, obviously ako ang pinag-uusapan.
I hurriedly packed my things and went out of the room. I don't care about a single shit now, I just want to lay down in my bed and sleep. At least sleeping can help me forget all the pain that I'm having right now.
Palabas na ako ng gate ng may biglang humatak sakin, and I turned around and saw Kiel. "What the fuck do you think you're doing? Let me go!" I shouted at him but he didn't obeyed me. He still continued to drag me somewhere. Tumigil lang siya nang makarating kami sa magubat na bahagi ng campus namin.
"Let's talk." he said.
