CHAPTER 3
973 Words
SHE can see the end, Angel will make sure that they will soon get out of Baguio because what they are going through is the farthest town of Baguio.
Little by little they were already outside Tagay-tay, it was only a few kilometers to go. Even though she was about to leave Baguio, she decided not to rush for their safety, so she drove slowly to avoid the tragedy.
But they say---Whatever we avoid? If it is destined, there is nothing we can do---because we don't want it, or we want it, life is like this.
We do not hold our destiny when it comes to death because we just borrowed our life and no one will know it, when will it be taken back? Since we are not God, we are also not fortune tellers.
Angel was careful because she would not want to have an accident, disturb the rest of her twins who were sleeping soundly.
What they are passing now is a lot of small stones that could cause an accident because not only is it rocky, there is also a cliff near here that is very dangerous with only barriers that are not very strong.
Why did she come here? Angel had no choice because this was the only way out because there was a fiesta in the other village, it was hard to get past because there were many people and there was another show going on there.
Baguio is active in such celebrations, but even so, she brought it up to her grandfather who was the Governor of Baguio several times. But he was too busy in his office to take care of it.
But he promised them and all the people affected by it that when there are enough funds in the town of Baguio, they will take care of it immediately. He made all the citizens believe that because he had not yet uttered a word that he had broken.
This road is also a difficult road because it is all winding because it is made like that. Why so? The engineer who did it before made a mistake, but it is planned to change it when there are enough funds here because there are too many twists and turns that are very dangerous for vehicles traveling in Baguio but it is difficult to change the road that has already been built and built so for sure big money will fall here.
This is the only road so far that is the closest and fastest for them to reach their destination.
Angel suddenly stopped in the middle of the road, she also turned pale because suddenly two dogs appeared in front of her.
They were obviously fighting and right in the middle of the road she was going to pass. Why is there a dog here? I thought grandpa was doing something in the whole village of Baguio---your dog, tie it up.
The policy implemented throughout Baguio by his grandfather who was a strict Governor was strict. But no matter how strict it is still inevitable that someone will slip through? Because there are still criticisms. Because of the increase in the number of cases of rabies that are now fatal bites of dogs that have rabies, his grandfather decided to have anti-rabies vaccine.
They hoped to prevent the case of dog and human rabies deaths but they were disappointed when it came to the anti-rabies vaccine because there were many street dogs.
So a good solution came to their minds---Your dog, tie it---to be implemented by the government of Baguio which he thought was followed by their countrymen.
There are unintended events, this dog may accidentally lose his chain that serves as a tie to it. And of course when there are obedient citizens, we can also expect that there will be disobedient citizens who do not want to obey the law. This dog owner may be one of those recalcitrant citizens who do not know how to follow the safety projects of their superiors.
Because of her shock, she could not think of what to do in this situation so she accidentally turned the car they were riding in due to panic and fear. That was her biggest mistake, she forgot that there was a cliff in her turn.
Angel stepped on the car's brake with all her strength to make it stop, but unfortunately for her at that time, fate did not agree with her. Instead of stopping, it went straight ahead and she didn't do anything.
Suddenly her heart beat faster because of the nervousness, she was also pale because
she was scared and she didn't know what to do.
Why doesn't it stop now? She was sweating profusely, even though her sweat was getting cold because of the fear she was feeling.
❝Heaven, wake up,❞ she has woken up here many times, but it won't wake up and they are getting closer to the cliff.
Angel wanted to jump so that she wouldn't be involved in the possible fall of their car into the cliff, but she couldn't do it.
Angel can't be selfish, she can't leave her twin. She can't let her die so even if she has a chance to survive she won't leave her.
Maybe this is destined to happen? She held her twin's hand and tightly closed her eyes with a trace of fear shaking her whole body, even though her eyes were closed it didn't stop her frozen tears from falling down her cheeks.
Maybe this is what was meant to happen? Maybe God wants them to be born into the world at the same time and die at the same time, disappear from the world.
Even if it hurts, even if it's difficult, she will accept this cruel fate.
