“What are you all doing here?” bulalas ko nang makita sina Leila, Inori, Athena, at Ate Selene na nakaupo sa aking kama.
It was understandable that I didn’t see Jonathan since he went to his own house, but why were my friends here?
Tumayo si Athena mula sa pagkakaupo at mabilis na lumapit sa akin. Magkakatabi sila sa iisang puwesto lamang ng kama. When I looked at their faces properly, I noticed the worry in their expressions. Vertical wrinkles were appearing on their foreheads because of their intersecting eyebrows. Napansin ko rin ang panay na pagkagat ni Inori sa kaniyang labi.
“Ate Marg! Did Kuya Se fetch you?” Humawak si Athena sa aking dalawang kamay. She was anticipating my answer and she wanted me to answer her question immediately.
Napadaing ako sa higpit ng pagkahahawak niya
