*FEW MINUTES LATER
hindi paman ako nakakapasok ng apartment ng maalala ko bigla yong mga kweninto ni jeff kanina about mitsy .. kinakabahan akong binuksan ang pinto .. pagpasok ko agad na bumungad saakin si unknown guy nakaharap to sa my bookshelf at my hawak na isang libro .
“Yo-you what exactly are you ? this is the opposite of getting out … hump what am i doing ?” tarantang tanong ko rito pati narin sa sarili ko habang nakatayo parin ako malapit sa pinto
di ko inaasahan ang biglang pag lingon nito sa gawing direksiyon ko .. binalik nito sa bookshelf ang librong hawak niya at naglakad patungo sa akin
“whooooooooo !!! no! no! no! jan ka lang sa pwesto mo , no! dont come here … don't take another step after that” malakas na sambit ko rito habang lumalaki ang mata ko patuloy parin siya sa paglalakad papunta sa direksiyon ko “i need to leave right now“ akmang bubuksan ko na ang pinto ng mabilis niya tong sinara
para akong maiihi o maiiyak naghalo halo na yong nararamdaman ko sa sobrang kaba . kasi si unknown guy nasa likuran ko .. dahan dahan ko tong hinarap
“BACK OFF” tipid na sambit ko rito sabay tulak kasu parang nagpapacute to sakin .
laking gulat ko ng hindi ito nawala , unliked before na pag nahahawakan ko ei bigla bigla nalang to nawawala , and i thought he was a ghost or something pero yong kamay ko ramdam na ramdam ang init ng katawan niya at yong pabango niya amoy na amoy sa loob ng apartment .. pero bakit ang katawan niya lumiliwanag .. at hindi siya tumitingin directly on me , i swipe my hands through her face , sumayaw na rin ako sa harapan niya
“ohmygosh .. you dont see me do you?” takang tanong ko rito
then why did he approach to simply closed the opened door
“he doesnt even see or hear me , shoookt baka ako ang multo .. but that its imposible nakikita palang ako ni klient kanina”
habang kinakagat ko ang sarili kong koko , ng biglang tumahol at patakbong papunta sa direksyon namin si moishe lalapitan ko na sana ang aso ko pero naunahan niya ako .
“hummmmmp .. he likes my dog ? …. my heart—” sambiit ko nasana ng my maalala ko bigla “okay! okay! do not fangirl alanys remember a girl went missing because of him” kaya naman sinampal sampal ko ang mukha ko
habang hinihimas niya ang ulo ni moishe ng makita kong kinuha niya ang cellphone niya at my bigla itong tinawagan .
“a ghost have phone. ? thats so odd pero sino ang tinatawagan niya .. humpp maybe her friends”
then suddenly my phone is ringing .
