"They don't care what's your sexuality is."
"But, how'd you know?"
He didn't talked but look somewhere from afar.
"I'll take you home" he suddenly stand and grabbed my hand.
"W-why are you doing this?" scornfully I shouted.
"I just wanna take you home, what's wrong?" he look deeper at my eyes, seriously.
"No need, Nash. I can manage."
"But you can't eat and go for trips without your friends. So, how can you go home with men's here around you? You can manage I know, but this time lemme just escort you." he smile
"Too many says, just tell me you like me and you want to know where's my house is." I burst out my plaguesome laugh.
"You know what, you're not my type of girl. Don't assume that I like you." he stand straight and walked, leaving me a bit space.
"What the f*ck?! I was just jokin—" and I just followed him.
When we get home and about to go inside my house, he says goodbye but said something i don't understand. "Samantha, NRUTYMSTI." he walked back and leave.

*a week ago*
I haven't seen Nash for a week, "what happened to him?". I was confused and a little bit sad, but I just give my attention more on studies than to think much.
I receive a lot of bad news and only one get my attention. Our principal announce, "o-our new transfer student "Nash Collins" is d-dead."
I feel like my world's ruined, my heart broke into pieces and indisposed at anything. I didn't realize my tears are slowly going down, I felt nothing but pain, sorrow, astound and mad at the same time.
"I need to know who did this."
Kenzo, my schoolmate give me a dark blue paper, he said it was from Nash. But before he go he said something I don't understand, "NRUTYMSTI" which is Nash also said before he disappeared.
I asked him, "are you okay, Kenzo?" but he just smile, nod and walked away.
When I remember about the card, hastily I gently open it. The letter said;
"Samantha Austin, it's only been a week since we became friends and I want you to know that I am a part of that gang. I haven't tell it to you early cause I had no time. Be careful in anything, to those people around you. Our leader of the gang is— and he is somehow—"
"Wtf?! it's incomplete, where's the half one?" nervously I hissed.
"Bbbbbbaaannnnggg"
A loud enfilade made everyone panic. They shouted, "Kenzo died, he was shot by his head". Everyone is afraid, crying and don't know what to do. While me, standing still and trying to realize what was happening. I was hopeless, I can't feel nothing, I'm so numb.

I'm at my house because we all ensue to go home cause of those murders happening inside our school this past week.
I was watching a television to relieves my emotions until my mom called me, "Samantha, I'll be late today and I guess we'll just sleep here both of your father in your grandma's house, road is full by cars and we'll lose gas. Make sure to eat okay? Don't forget to lock the gate before sleeping huh? Bye baby, mama's loves you." and he turned off the call.
I woke up because of loud thunderbolts with rains on it. It's already 6:00 pm and I heard someone's cooking.
"Mom, I thought you'll sleep with grandma's house" while rubbing my eyes. "O-oh?! Jane?! what are you doing here? and why are you cooking?" I was shocked.
She smile, "I was bored so I came here but I saw you sleeping and looks tired so here is it, eat first." she looked at me excitedly, "hmm, anyway you didn't locked the gate that's why I came here easily." she smiled again.
Thoughting out, "what's with your smile huh? feels like you did something I won't like" it was just supposed to be a joke but her smiles fade away.
"Uh, Jane what happened? What's the matter??" I saw tears dropping off her face but she swiped it and turn at me with her fake wide smile. "It's nothing Sam, I just misses you. C'mon let's eat." and we just eat silently.
*CALLING......*
Jane's older brother called at her.
"Where are you? It's late night and you're still outside." he said with his deep serious voice.
"I'm at Sam house, Josh. I'll sleep here this night, I haven't tell you 'cause I don't know where you are lately." she coldly return.
"S-samantha?" he stuttered.
"Yes"
"O-oh, okay. Take care both" he said.
And he turned off the call.
I got curious when the two talked in that way since her brother is the clingiest among her siblings. As I am looking at Jane, she was thinking so deep as she was wool-gathering.
I called her thrice in her name, still she didn't even respond. I pat her in her shoulder and she looked at me distraught, her tears drip down and cry saying, "NRUTYMSTI".

"S-Sam"?
I was hasted went on my bedroom where I put Sam on it, I hug her and cry.
"Sam, what's wrong?" she asked.
You lost your conscious 3 hours ago, you even say strange and weird words I don't even understand. You even cry on me as you lost your conscious and fell on my shoulders.
I don't know what to do so I take you in my bed and put some blanket on you.
Jane hugged me and cried again, she wanna tell me something but can't...
————
After Jane got a strength to walk again, she said she'll go home in the evening. I didn't let her but she pleased me so I did. I even call her brother for her to be safely arrive at home.
I haven't cooked any foods since I still can't get what was happening. In order to survive the cold breeze whimpering on my window, I just open up my radio to listen some news.
It's already nine in the evening with the heavy rain but no thunderstorms. I can't sleep so I just get my books to do my homework.
After I finish my homework, I slept and turned off the lights. But, before closing my eyes, I heard a whispered saying,
NRUTYMSTI...
