while walking along
their school corridor,
she was anxious . . .
again.

❝ what a cycle,❞ she
thought.

actually, she was right.
this scenario always
happens since she
started to used that app.

because she was always
unsafe and like there was
always danger coming
when she didn't take care
of herself.

but which made her more
anxious was the app, the
thing that the app said.

she actually didn't had the
chance to read the messed
up texts because her phone
suddenly blacked out and
that text suddenly disappeared.

what she just remembered
was that she needs to
not let her guards down.

or else . . .

classes are already dismissed
and it's time to go home, yet
her driver was still not there
to fetch her.

minutes passed by and she
was already surrounded by
mosquitoes and her driver
was still not there.

❝ nasaan na kaya yung
putanginang 'yun? sabi niya
on the way na siya, pero ang
tagal na, ugh! pinagpipyestahan
na rin yung kagandahan ko
ng mga lamok!❞ she exclaimed.

her phone then vibrated. she
turned her phone on and
checked the notification. it
was a message from her driver.

she messed up her hair
before turning off her phone.

❝ what a lucky day,❞ she
said with sarcasm and started
walking to search for a cab
or any vehicle that she can
ride to go home.

while walking on the street,
the streetlights became dim
and started blinking.

her heart beat started beating
so fast just like how she
started walking.

she's afraid that the lights
might turn off and darkness
will fill the whole street.

she already had a bad
memory with darkness.

while walking, she saw a
glimpse of light that looks
like it was coming from a
car.

she smiled successfully
and ran towards it,
but luck was not on her side.

before she reached it,
someone covered her mouth
with a piece of cloth which
has an intoxicating scent,
that made her unconscious.
