Class Reunion: Section Rose

Isang klase, isang pagkakamali, isang sekreto na pilit nilang tinalikuran at itinago. Labing walong buhay ang kapalit.

19 students walked in, but only 18 of them managed to walk out.

But 7 years later after the students of Section Rose graduated, they decided to hold a reunion party for their class. Ang venue? Syempre, yung old classroom nila sa eskwelahang pinasukan nila noon. Kung saan sila sama samang nagharutan, nagtawanan at nagiyakan. The place where they all shared everything together. 7 years na hindi sila nagkita. After Graduation, Reunions are probably the next best thing na pwedeng mangyare sa isang klase na noo'y hindi mapaghiwalay pero ngayon ay halos hindi na magkakilala. It's their chance para magsayang muli. To catch up with each other's lives and probably brag about how successful their lives are specially now that all of them have steady jobs and had already started walking the path of an adult? Or perhaps asarin ang mga classmates nila na hanggang ngayon eh wala paring mga lovelife or maybe yung dating couple sa room nilang hindi mapaghiwalay noon pero ngayon eh mag-hi sa isa't isa ay hindi na magawa?

It was all fun and games until one of them found a class picture. Their class picture. And then suddenly, one of them brought up a very delicate topic na hanggang ngayon eh nagsisilbing misteryo para sakanilang lahat. I mean, 7 years is pretty damn long. Probably enough para kalimutan ang isang masamang experience na naranasan natin sa buhay?

It was all still fun and games para sakanila. Well, probably a little bit uncomfortable considering someone brought up a classmate of them that was already long dead. UNTIL one of them counted all the guests and found out that there's a total of 19 students in the room.

But as I've said, 7 years is a long time. NONE of them even remembered who the dead student was. And how and why that student died.

But there's 19 of them.
When there's only supposed to be 18.

"We'll all be friends forever, right?"
