Psycho alert

Nakatapos na kaming kumain non at sa totoo lang kailangan ko na talagang pumasok non. Di naman agad makaalis sila mama kasi baka makita ako dito ni Callen kasi nga nawawala naman ako sa point of view n'ya. All I have to do is pretend as Chase do the same thing, kunyari wala kaming alam sa mga balak nilang cliché.

Kasabay ko ngayon sila Kyle at Joy papasok pero nagtataka padin ako kung ano yung chinika ni Chase sa kanilang dalawa.

"Hayaan mo na kasi. Wala lang yun!" Joy said "Hindi ako mapanatag. Ayoko. Anong sinabi n'ya? Tska teka... Baka mamaya may nabanggit kayo tungkol kila Remo ha?"

"Wala ah. Di kami magsasabi jusko natatakot ako sa daddy mo. Sayo pa kaya?" Natawa sila. "Tska dapat ikaw syempre mag sabi sa kanya tungkol kila Remo..." Dagdag ni Kyle at tumango ako.

"Pangunahan n'yo ko unahin ko kayo sa kabilang buhay." Banta ko at pumasok na kami. Habang nag hihintay ng prof, nagusap usap lang kami don nila joy.

"In fairness, that color of your hair and the length of it suits you." Joy winks at me so I chuckled.

"I found it cool. I mean look at you, you look younger in that style. Nice! Nice!" Kyle gave me thumbs up at napatingin si Joy dito. "So parang nagpaparinig ka yata na ako din dapat magpa haircut hmm?"

"Lah. Di naman love ko naman yang style mo tska kung kahit ano pa yan, maganda ka padin sa paningin ko." Parang sira namang nag hheart finger si kyle kay joy kaya naman napa libot tingin ako sa silid at maya-maya, natagpuan ko na si Callen doon na nakatitig saakin.

Tangna, creepy. He gestured me to come closer to him so I excused first before grinning to him and ran at him outside.

"He-

"Where the fvck have you been?!" Nanggigigil n'yang saad saakin habang sinasakal n'ya ako. Oo, sinasakal n'ya ko at hindi ko s'ya pwedeng palagan kasi makakahalata s'ya, tinanggal n'ya memorya ko na naging matapang ako at nalaban, he made me weak for my new personality, kasi alam n'yang mas malakas ako kesa sa kanya.

Malamang madami na s'yang alam mula sakin dahil kasabwatan n'ya si belle.

"I-I... I go back in my apart...Ment." I breathe deeply when he lets me go at nagulat ako nang sampalin n'ya ko. Pikon ako at konti nalang at mapapalagan ko to.

Xey, you can still do it... Basta... Kalma lang... Stick to the plan...

I tap my lip coz' it stings and yea, it's bleeding. I got up again and look at him. He looks furious eh?

"Next time you make me angry, tell me where are you going! Or else you won't be going here again!" He yelled and I nodded. "I need to fix something from you first before you go." Hinila n'ya kamay ko at pinasok n'ya ko sa isang bakanteng kwarto.

May nilabas s'yang parang cellphone na itsura at tinulak n'ya ko sa may pader. Para bang iniscan ako doon at maya-maya may tumunog doon. Nakita ko naman na napasulyap ito saakin, okay, please work...

"Did you hit your head?" He asked and I shook my head no at napaasik s'ya. "Be glad that I can't hit you again. Your tracker will lose connection to mines, if I can't reconnect with it, I might inject you that needle again." He murmured at nung may nag beep sa hawak n'ya, may nagsalita na memory deleted then he snapped his fingers in front of me.

"Love?" He called so I looked at him and smiled. "Hi love!" I greeted. Kala mo nakalimutan ko kung pano mo ko pinrogram! Pakyu to. Gagantihan kita, muka ka pa namang bulbol ngayon.

And thank God na may nagawa si Chase dito... Kasi kung wala we're toast.

"Hmm... What can you remember yesterday?" He asked and I smirk. "Sorry... I got in to an accident -

"Okay. You're good, you can leave now. I'll be leaving also." He pats my head and before he left me in that room, I heard the thing said that I was in an mode now... Normal mode? Seriously, he's making me his toy... He's making me a robot!

Bumwelo akong susuntukin ko s'ya pero umatras agad ako at sinapak yung pader. "Kala mo kaya moko? Hangal hindi!" I groaned when I bit my lower lip.

I sigh at lumakad na pabalik sa room namin. Nakasimangot ako pagkaupo ko sa upuan kila joy at kyle. "W-What happened to you?" Kyle asked and look at my face.

"Did he hurt you again?" Joy asked and I nodded. "Saryoso?! Lalaki ba yun?!"

"Yaan mona yun. Wala kayong babanggitin kay chase ha..." Joy gave me some tissue to wipe the blood from my lip at habang nag pupunas, may bumangga sa likod ko at nahulog sa sahig.

We look at the guy at napahawak ito sa ulo n'ya. "Jeric! Are you serious?! What's wrong with you! Why can't you remember me!!" lumayo kami at tinignan namin yung dalwang lalaking yon na itinayo si Jeric.

Nilapitan naman s'ya ni Mr. Thompson na tatay n'ya. Jeric just holds his head and groaned. "What's wrong with you?! Where have you been?! What happened?!" sunod sunod na tanong ni Mr. Thompson pero nagwawala na don sa sahig si Jeric.

Naglibot tingin ako at nakita ko na nakatayo si Callen sa may pinto, staring at Jeric. Jeric and I have gone missing this week... I mean, 5 days na si jeric nawawala... Tas ako 3 lang kaya di nahalata ng iba kasi walang pasok non...

"GET OFF ME!!" Jeric yelled at pasulyap sulyap ako kay Callen. Jeric keeps on groaning at maya-maya nang lapitan s'ya ng tatay n'ya he got up at nagulat ako sa itsura n'ya.

His veins on his head are all showing up and he's turning red at the same time, he sweats a lot. "S-Son! What's happening to you?!" Kinakabahang tanong ni Mr. Thompson dito at para bang pinilit n'ya sarili n'ya na hawakan tatay n'ya.

"S-S-Save me! Save me!!" Sigaw n'ya at sumulyap ako kay Callen sa likod, he smirks at nag tilt ng ulo dito.

Nahuli ko namang sumulyap s'ya kay callen sa likod. "Save you from who?!" Mr. Thompson yelled at nattrigger na kong iligtas s'ya! Kingina!

"Lusubin n'yo pag sinabi ko." Sabi ko kila joy at tumango sila. Pasulyap sulyap ako kay callen, chinicheck ko kung may pipindutin s'ya. I remembered him telling me that he could kill me through one click. Kaya pag tumakas ako he can kill me right away... But I'm curious why didn't he kill me when I ran away?

Malamang kailangan pa ko n'yan. "Save me from-

"Go." I said at bago pa banggitin ni Jeric si Callen na kanina n'ya pang tinititigan, sinugod namin si jeric at pagkalapit ko kay Jeric ay kaagad kong hinampas s'ya sa batok sabay sumigaw kaya yung iba din nag react, nakisigaw.

Sumulyap ako sa pinto at nakita kong pasimpleng umalis na si Callen habang may ibang estyudante nang nagsisi takbuhan papasok. Before I could look away from Callen, I saw her carried a girl which is walang malay kaya I quickly spread everyone away from us at hinila si Joy palapit sakin.

"Call Bal, now! And stay here!" I said at tatango tango din s'ya kaya iniwan ko na yung syringe na sinaksak ko kay Jeric at nagmadaling lumabas para sundan si Callen.

Nakita ko na madami na ding sumunod sa pagpasok sa room pero di man lang nila napapansin si Callen don?

I chased him hanggang sa pag punta n'ya ng parking lot, nakita ko naman na hindi lang pala isa yung nakukuha n'ya na... I think he's making his own people here!

Bat dito pa?! Mga kukunin n'ya pa mga aspiring doctors!! Napakahirap kaya maging doctor tapos paglalaruan n'ya lang! Sayang yung taon! Ayoko na ng ginagawa n'ya!!

Before he could enter in his car, I saw a guy yelled of what he saw kaya lumabas muli si Callen at nakita kong hinabol n'ya ito. Damn, ang bilis n'ya! Kaya kailangan ko na ding bilisan!

I ran towards his car at mabuti nalang at hindi n'ya ko napansin, kaya nag slide na ko pababa ng kotse n'ya nung malapit na ko, sa baba naman nag lagay ako ng tracking device para matigil na yang kalokohan n'ya!

He's a real psycho! Damn him! Hindi ko na talaga to papalagpasin! Pagka dikit ko don ng tracker, agad akong lumipat sa baba ng katabing kotse.

I waited him to come back at nakita ko naman na pagkabalik n'ya... Kasama n'ya na yung lalaking hinabol n'ya na wala nang malay.

I hold my mouth for me to lessen the sound of my breathing... Kinakabahan din ako the heck. Pagka pasok n'ya ng katawan sa loob, he stopped moving at narinig ko na may ni ring s'ya ni loudspeaker pa so very wrong.

"What?"

"I found Chase."

"Good. Meet me back at my house and don't let that shit head go in my marked place. If him and Xey would meet I can kill them both. Watch me." He ended the call already and hop in his car then left.

Nakahinga naman ako ng malalim. I know that it's belle. Damn, sa sobrang tagal ko nang hindi nakakapag trabaho ng ganito kinakabahan na tuloy ako ulit.

I roll out and dust off then I quickly go back in the building. Pagkabalik ko naman sa silid namin, nagulat ako na halos lahat ng tao sa kwartong yon mga walang malay maliban nalang kila Chase, Joy at Kyle na nakatayo sa gitnang gitna katabi si Jeric.

"W-What the fvck happened here?" I said at pinalabas ang ibang chismosa bago isara ang pinto.

"B-Bal... I just told joy and kyle that I made something that could shut down all of those who have needles in their heads... And when I pressed it... This happens..." Chase said at dahan-dahan akong lumapit sa kanila kasi baka maapakan ko sila.

"Are they still alive?" I asked and he nods then catch me when I hop on him. "Yea, I just put them in sleep for a while... I can bring them all back to life if I'll press this green button."

"Wait... So kung kaya mo silang pawalan ng malay... Lahat ba ng taong nalagyan ni Callen n'yan madadamay?" He nods. "How can you say?" Kyle asked so he glance at him then showed us the thing he's holding.

"I can now access to their trackers. And I can now control their actions."

"What did you do bal?" I smiled at him and he winks at me. "Just hacking stuffs. it's part of my asset ever since." Pagmamayabang n'ya kaya natawa nalang ako.

"So, what are we going to do about them?" Joy asked and I smirk. "Good question. I'll call my parents, call your dad, we need to help these peoples." I said and I gave my phone to Joy.

"Kayo pala tumawag. Kakausapin ko muna si Chase." Hinablot ko phone ni Chase at ibinigay kay Kyle.

They dialed their numbers at hinila ko si Chase sa malayo. "Bal... Sinundan ko si Callen..."

"Kelan?"

"Kanina-

"Wag mo ulit gagawin yan ha. Papahamak mo nanaman sarili mo."

"Okay.. Okay... Basta kanina pagkasunod ko... Nakita ko na ang dami n'yang dalang walang malay na mga istyudante dito! Feeling ko nag rerecruit s'ya ng tauhan n'ya! Bal, natatakot ako pano kapag nakuha nila sila Joy at Kyle?" I hold his hand and he holds it tighter.

"Calm down... We won't let that happen to your friends... I promise." He said and kissed the back of my hand.

"I-I placed a tracker on his car and I eavesdrop from him and Belle's conversation, belle told him that he saw you... And if Callen would know you and I meeting... He can kill us both..."

"As if we'll let that happen! Besides... I hack in his machine now... He can't hurt you anymore... Still, we need to save the others."

"Sorry for the interruption, but your parents are now on their way." sabi ni joy so we nodded.

"Pano ka? Parang bantay na bantay ka na ni Belle?" I said and he smiles at me.

"Then I'll make myself disappear from her sight for a while. I'll stay here with you."

"What if-

"You'll be safe with me. Don't worry." He pulls me on a hug so I hug him back.

Habang nag hihintay sa magulang namin, nakiusap ako kay auntie na ipasara muna yung school at iipon ang mga tao sa auditorium habang wala pa sila mama so pumayag na si auntie dahil na din sa nalaman n'ya kanina.

We moved the lifeless bodies in the clinic as Kyle and Chase stayed there, habang kami ni Joy nag stay sa auditorium kasama si Auntie.

"Stay here with us, so we could know that you're not being taken by that guy okay?" We both nodded at auntie then she handles the other people in the auditorium.

I called Chase and he answered it quickly. "Are you alright?" He asked and I smiled. "Yes... Kayo? Nasan na daw sila daddy?"

"We're fine and they are all on their ways, they bought a lot of people. Coz' they think it's time for all of us to face those two."

"W-What?"

"Stay Calm... Don't worry, remember? You're stronger than anyone else. And I witnessed that."

"B-Bal... If we'll face them... Please stay close to me and don't die okay?" I heard him laugh. "After everything I've done to live, you think they could kill me easily?"

"Kahit na-

"Opo... I won't die... And you too, I don't want to lose you twice... So keep safe, ring mo ko anytime para makatakbo ako jan agad."

"Yes. Ring mo din ako if nanjan na sila. Byeee! Love you."

"Sige. Love you too." He kissed the phone and I chuckled then end the call.

Habang nag iintay muli, naglilibot tingin na ko, baka mamaya nandito sila Callen o Belle... Kinakabahan na tuloy ako...

"Joy, kahit anong mangyare... Promise me not to be taken away by that jerk okay? Kayo ni kyle..." I said to joy and she nods. "Stay here... I'll go look at the gates." Hinila ako ni Joy pabalik.

"Don't go... Xe-

"I'll be back." I let go of her and walk out of the room. I look around first and hey, there are guards, nothing to worry about.

Bumaba na ko sa may quadrangle at nag lilibot tingin na baka mamaya may nakasunod eh, bat ba kasi sa tapat ng building na to yung clinic.

I breathe out when I've reached the front door sa clinic at nang hawakan ko ang door knob, may biglang nag click so I froze on my place. "Let that go and step back."

What a cliché move?
