*****
(ONE DAY AGO (THURSDAY) - HEADMISTRESS'S OFFICE - 7:40 AM)

"Let's start with the reason kung bakit ka namin palaging nililipat nang schools," Simula ni Rina. Nasa tabi nya ang kanyang asawa'ng si Leon habang nasa harapan nila si Caitlyn, lahat sila ay nakaupo sa sofa, isang bilog na center table ang nasa pagitan nila.

Kasalukuyan silang nasa opisina ng Headmistress, at silang tatlo lamang ang naririto.

Caitlyn remains quiet, her heart pounding loudly as she fiddled with her thumbs nervously.

This is it, malalaman ko na din kung anong dahilan... Caitlyn paused for a moment, Pero bakit ako kinakabahan? Shouldn't I be glad? Maybe I'm just anxious...

"Do you remember what you did in your last stay in Stanli?" Tanong ng kanyang ina, atsaka idinagdag, "Before you returned the uniforms and the other stuff?"

"You mean nung last day ko sa Stanli as a student?" Caitlyn asked, still nervous.

"Yes, that." Tango ni Rina.

Natahimik si Caitlyn atsaka nagsimulang mag-isip.

Last day... She squinted her eyes in thought, "I was... It was a normal day. Nothing special happened, really. If I'm not mistaken, the only highlight of that day was Carter and Chase gave me this bracelet." Atsaka itinaas ni Caitlyn ang kanyang kaliwang wrist. A silver bracelet was clasped around her wrist, it has little gems dangling on it, reflecting light whenever it catches one. It was simple, but Caitlyn treasured it the most.

Leon fell silent, while Rina had a conflicted look on her face.

"That's..." Rina sighed heavily, eyes staring straight at Caitlyn's teal eyes. Rina's serious gray eyes meeting with Caitlyn's nervous teal ones. "That's not your last day in Stanli."

Napakunot noo si Caitlyn, "Huh? But it was." Naguguluhan nyang tiningnan ang kanyang mga magulang.

"Princess, as hard as it is to believe, your mother's telling the truth." Her father told her, sounding crestfallen, "Do you remember Astrid?"

A thoughtful look flashed across Caitlyn's face, before her face lit up in recognition,

"Ah Astrid! Yes. She's the very first friend I made in Stanli!" Masiglang sagot ni Caitlyn, panandaliang nawala ang kaba. Yes, Astrid was the first friend she made, but after she met Chase and Carter, the three of them were stuck together like glue. "What about her?"

"We didn't told you this because we knew you'd be...devastated, but Astrid, she...she died."

Silence.
