"Oh my ghad! Dude, muntik na akong mag-report sa head mistress na nawawala ka! Where the hell have you been?"

Agad na bumungad sa akin ang mukha ni Frondo, pagkapasok ng unit ko. He looked stress by the way. His hair's a total mess. 'Yung totoo sinong nawala sa amin?

He looked more lost than I.

"I’ve been calling and texting you many times, Dude! And you didn't even answer any of that!"

I passed beside him, but that didn't make him stop. "And now, you'll come back, almost as late as midnight? And act like nothing happened, like you've got no one waiting and didn't distress someone as damn as fuck!"

He's acting like my mom na, he should stop watching such drama!

"Haunt!"

Okay enough.

"Frondo! I'm just fine, okay? And it's just seven in the evening, fuck your almost midnight! I just happened to...ugh! Never mind,"

He sighed deeply upon hearing what I’ve said.

Solicitude faded right away off his face and now he's back, the dick head Frondo is back.

"Let's go, Dude! I cooked dinner for the both of us." He said as he took steps near the dining area.

"Oh! Frondo! Don't me! You don't cook!"

A mocking smile appeared on his lips, as he saw my expression. Disgust is up on my face after hearing that he cooked dinner for us. Last time he cooked we ended up in the hospital, caused food poisoning. Matapos no’n hindi na ito umulit pa.

"Fine! I bought it at our favorite restaurant." He admitted, with both hands up.
While on the midst of savoring these fantastic foods, Frondo started blabbering again.

"Do you know what day's tomorrow?" He started while looking at me with such excitements.

I looked at him curiously in return.

"Come on man! This has to do with something, boom! Like that!" He added. With his hands performing something boom?

"Have you lost your mind too?"

"Oh-my-goodness! Don't tell you don't know what event is waiting up for you tomorrow?"

"Just fuckin' spills the beans, Lahari!"

"Oh! Damn man! Tomorrow's your must awaited birthday!"

My mouth literally dropped open, as soon as I heard what he said.

What the hell? Did I’ve just forgotten my own birthday?

My birthday?

"What date is tomorrow?"

"It's twenty-firsts of September."

"Twenty-firsts?"

"Yes, and it's your debut day. Dude!" He answered. I held my head, massaging my temples, when I can't remember any of what Frondo have said.

Imposibleng nakalimutan ko ito. Malabo. Lahari, mom and I used to celebrate it every year.

"Are you Mallory?" I gazed back at him, directly at his cerulean eyes.

"What are you Mallory?"

"I think I need to rest, get out for now, Lahari! I need some time alone." I blurted out.

He looked surprise by my sudden reaction, but refused to ask, and do what I’ve said instead.

As soon I heard the door closed. I slammed my hands on the wooden table and stood up to kicked of things near me.

What the hell is happening on me?

I tweaked my hair, several times until I lost my temper.

I am getting mad of something, that I’m badly willing and wanna hurt someone if I happen to be with any.

It's my birthday tomorrow, but how come I have forgotten it?

"'Told you, you're not human!"

Rude woman's voice keeps on repeating on my fuckin' head. Did she have done something on me?

Did that woman did something on me?

Think Mallory! Think!

"Ughhh!"

I am unconscious of the blood that's now dripping out my knuckles, but hundred percent conscious of the pressure building from within my head.

"Mallory!"

I keep on banging my head on the wall, but the voices, I couldn't get to stop them.

I couldn't get to, and it's makin' my head weighs even heavier.

As the broken mirror placed near the sofa of my living room got my attention, I walk near to it.

Bell's banging rings started to fill my entire room, but it didn't make me swift my gazed off the broken mirror.

Sa pangwalong kalembang, sa huling kalembang ng kampana.

I saw someone in the broken mirror other than myself, before I passed out.
