6 am. Exactly 10 hours after Evan ate the snack I poisoned, his body was found inside the men's bathroom.
Wala na naman kaming nagawa bukod sa iinform ang leaders at i-store ang katawan niya sa specimen room.
The guilt is eating me up again. I killed people that didn't do anything wrong just to save the man that I love.
"Hindi ba kayo nagtataka?" Ridge asked us. Lahat kami ay nasa admin ngayon.
"Na?" Kevin asked.
"Kung bakit sunod-sunod na namatay sila Rose, James, at Evan. It can't be caused by natural deaths," Ridge answered.
I gulped. They're trying to catch on already!
"How can you say so?" Chanel asked.
"Noong naiwan tayo dito, okay naman sila. Wala silang sakit o kung ano mang karamdaman," Ridge answered.
"So you think someone is behind all of this?" River asked and Ridge nodded. Bigla naman kumabog ang puso ko sa kaba. Pinagpapawisan na rin ako kahit malamig naman.
"That's impossible," Missy said.
"Wala namang pumapasok or lumalabas sa atin mula nung naibigay sa atin yung duty na 'to," Aria said.
"There is a big possibility that the one responsible for all this is one of us," Ridge said.
My hands started to tremble. I hid it behind my back so no one will notice.
I got startled when someone grabbed onto it. I looked at who did and saw River. He squeezed my hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid. I'll protect you."
"Is this the same case as what happened to the trainees last week?" Chanel asked.
"It's a possibility," Ridge answered.
"Pero bakit? What's the motive?" Aria questioned.
That got me thinking too. Sol ordered me to kill everyone without giving me a clear picture of what will happen after I succeeded. What is his motive? Anong makukuha niya sa pagpatay ng mga staff ng administration?
"We don't know yet but one thing is for sure," Ridge said while looking at each and everyone. "There is an impostor among us."

"Have you eaten?" tanong ni River nang makita niya akong palabas ng observatory.
"Nope, not yet," I answered.
He smiled before grabbing my hand. "Tara," sabi niya bago ako iginiya papuntang office.
"Lilipat pala kami ni Kevin sa morning shift," he informed.
I furrowed my eyebrows. "Bakit kasama ka?"
"Ridge hates waking up early in the morning so he can't do it. Temporary lang naman kasi kulang na sila doon," he explained.
I just sighed before nodding. Nang makarating sa office, si River na ang pumili ng kakainin namin bago kami pumwesto sa harap ni Aria at Ridge at kumain ng tahimik.
