Ms. Terry's Mistery Files

Chapter 21: I DOubt

Raven Terry

I woke up in a blue room.

At agad kong na-realize na wala ako sa condo ko.

After what I saw on my bedroom, I just had a mental break down until I passed out.

So where am I?

Nakakatawa dahil nang bumukas ang pinto ay iniluwa niyon si Hiro. It feels like he read what is in my mind.

“Are you okay Ray?” He sincerely asked.

Wow, ngayon ko nalang ulit iyan narinig.

I just nodded at him at dahan-dahang bumangon.

“Inspector Ford is already investigating. Sinusubukan nang i-check ang lahat ng security camera sa lugar. And they found this on your room.” He said while handing me a piece of paper.

‘Stay away from Pentagon, so I can spare your life.’

-Pentagon

 

Napabuntong hininga nalang ako nang makita ang babalang iyon. This is getting dangerous, but why don’t I feel scared? Again, I sighed on that thought.

“Are you sure you’re okay Ray?” puno ng pag-aalalang tanong muli ni Hiro.

Pero imbes na tumango o tumugon ay tinignan ko lamang ito.

It may look weird but I just feel calm on looking at him.

“Ray, please say something you’re creeping me out.” Awat nito sa akin.

Hiro has that cute Japanese look. If you know Toshiro in Ready Player One movie, ganon ang itsura niya pero para sa akin mas trip ko mukha ni Hiro.

Wait...

What the fuck am I thinking?

“Sorry Hiro, may iniisip lang ako.” Palusot ko rito sabay tingin sa malayo.

I just heard him sighed and sat beside my bed.

“Dito ka muna sa unit namin ni Hades sa ngayon.” Bigla niyang sabi.

Now that explains why I am in blue-walled room.

“So what did Inspector said? Did they have a lead?” Pang-iiba ko ng usapan.

Pero agad namang bumagsak ang mga balikat ni Hiro at agad yumuko.

Now I am the one who is worrying.

“Hey, why? What happened?” Alala kong tanong.

“Raven, the police prohibited us in helping them on Pentagon’s case. They said it’s too dangerous now.” Nanghihinayang na ani nito.

What?!

“B-but--” I can’t think of any words to say. I can’t imagine myself ending here. Hindi ako papaya na hanggang dito nalang kami sa kaso ng Pentagon. Ngayon pang may rason na ako para lalong magalit sa kanila?

“I feel like that threat was really meant for us.” Hiro said, out of the blue.

Agad naman akong napalingon dito habang sinusubukang isipin kung ano ang ibig niyang sabihin.
