Nicholas' POV;
"Are we there yet?" a long wait we anticipated since roads at this time is filled to the maximum
"Don't you know how harsh afternoon traffic is here in Manila? We've barely moved yet since we've entered the line of cars" even Minerva is frustrated with the traffic
"Manong, kelan pa kaya to uusad ang trapik?" I asked the driver
"Di ko po alam, ganito po talaga ang lagay ng trapiko sa ganitong oras" the driver replied
translation: "Sir, when will we move?. I asked the driver. "I don't know also, It's always been like this during this time," the driver said
After we stroll around the campus earlier, we deci- I mean I decided to go by the cemetery first to visit my father then my friends wanted to join in too so that's why we're all here stuck in traffic in Quezon Avenue
"Why did I agree to this" didn't I say that it's okay I'm alone?
"No more talking, stop wasting your breath complaining, you'll need that later when we walk" WE NEED TO WALK?
It's been 10 minutes since we felt movement and at last, the car in front moved which means we got a meter closer to our destination.
5 minutes in, we moved bit by bit. Why does this traffic happen so often? It's annoying and frustrating to just bear the boredom when you're in traffic. I can feel the numbness of my butt because of the 15 minutes of sitting. I can see the other two feeling bored and frustrated by the traffic we're having. So, maybe, we might as well play something while waiting.
"Hey, what if we play a game while waiting for the cars to move?" I suggested, clearing the bored look of my two companions
"Hmmm... Nice idea, let's play a game then" YESHH, got them in
"What about truth or dare?" I then smirked weirdly, I've been wanting to play truth and dare again with them cuz you know, secrets will be revealed.
I remembered Felix had a truth that time then we asked why he has he's shoelace untied most of the time. Then he answered, "I don't know how to tie my shoelaces" the three of us went silent for a brief moment. I felt bad for him but that's the nature of the game. SECRETS WILL BE REVEALED!
"Hey, you gon mad? You are smiling weirdly. You psychopath" Now that's harsh
"Frick, did I just did that?" I think I've gone mad now
"Let's start the game then, I'll use the wheel decide in my phone to choose who's first" we can't really do "jak-en-poy" with three people so the wheel is a better choice
The wheel then started to turn, It's scary to be the first one, I'm just here nervously watching the wheel turn around. Every time that arrow goes to my name scares me every time. The wheel starts to slow down, and the wheel had chosen,
"NICK"
"Why does it have to be me?" I suggested playing, why me first?
"Well, Minerva you can start" this is bad, why did he let Minerva do the questioning? Minerva's a monster at this game, WHY DID I SUGGEST PLAYING?
My fear level is at a maximum right now. "Ready Nick?", did she ask me? Wait for what? What did she say? "Yes! A hundred percent ready!" not, no more turning back-
"Truth or truth?" this is biased
"Wait what? Isn't this unfair?"
"My turn, my rules so pick" she said with a glare on her eyes, she's a monster alright
