Alyana’s POV

I’m knocking at the door of Rave’s room, I’ve been hitting it for a couple of times but she did not open it yet, I just heard faint movement sound every now and then. What’s her problem?

“Rave, can we talk?” I said gently, trying to convince her with calmness and sweetness. The barrier opened slowly, I looked low and my sister was geared up with a scared look in her eyes. “Can I go in, honey?” I added, she did not say a thing but she opened her room’s door widely.

Her bedroom was as panoramic as mine, her bedsheets and curtains are enormously printed with feathers and thin lines, it emanates calmness. She pulled me to a soft cushioned black chair, she rotated it, allowing me to face a monitor, wait, she has a computer set in her room. I ditched a b

    “I’m Rave Shekina Veneracion, your sister,” she said, the glitter in her eyes looks different.“What else?”“C’mon, Alyana. Let’s get to the real business, stop asking nonsense” she rotated back to the computer, now, she started printing the images. Each paper looks like horror pieces falling to the floor. I stooped down to pick them one by one. We said nothing but we are moving to help each other, it kept as that, not until we’re interrupted by a call coming from the first floor.“Alyana!” a stern manly voice shouted.I noticed that Rave stood up and opened the door gently, before talking, she gave me a serious look.“Dad! Alyana went out with Hero

    “What time is it, Rave?” I asked while scattering the black plastic bags on her bed.“It’s past thirty minutes after 3 o’clock” she pressed the shutdown button then faced me.“Did you eat already?” I asked without looking at her, I’m almost done putting all of the plastics, it almost occupied the whole bed.“Not yet, you wanna eat?” when I turned my gaze to her, I saw the innocence and sweetness of the Rave I knew. I managed to make a nod in front of this crossed armed kid.“I’ll just call for a delivery, what do you like to eat?”“Just order the same food as yours” I dusted my shirt. Just got the chance to check on myself, it felt

    “Rave, aside from me and you, does anyone know about our current cases? I mean your SDAM and my hyperthymesia,” I asked her as I took another long sip on the coffee.Her eyes blinked fast whilst she licked her thumb before looking at me, “None, just the two of us”“How about Dad?”“Just the two of us, Alyana,” she repeated, she finally put down the neat chicken bone to her paper plate.“But why?” I just can’t discern the reason behind, seriously.“Because we decided not to tell them, to diminish the possibility that we might get used or we might be treated differently in a negative way,” she took the last gulp on her water tumbler.

Not until a knock decked on my door, cooed low.I walked sluggishly to open it. A little creature’s silhouette appeared, she’s wearing a bright green shirt with “NASA” emblazoned on it, it was a souvenir stuff from a special trip, I guess.As she regale me with her morning face and messy hair, she talked in her cracky voice, “Let’s take breakfast together, Alyana. It will be a festive view for dad if we do so,” she then looked om her Pikachu (Pokemon) designed wristwatch, “It’s quarter to five, your class is 7:00 today. I checked my notes,” she gave a smile before finally deciding to h

Tired internally?” she asked, calmness can be summarized from her voice.I just nodded in response while my eyes are latched on the screen.

    “Hi, Ma’am. Too early in the club huh?”“Hey they lover, my boyfriend broke up with me too early as well, I need a bath of liquor until the next morning,” I hoped that sounded appropriate, and hardly wanting that it’s effective.“Really?! ... Hear the screams inside?”“Yes, I can hear it as clear as the fact that we’ll never ever come back together, sir” I replied while nodding.“That is the music of freedom synchronized and designed together to reiterate the beat of unsaid rants and pains,” he said and looked away as if remembering something agonizing. That gave me a chance to glance at Rave. Since the bar was located on an inside alley, some parts are shady, my sister had her chance to leap and make her way to the door.

    Watching the splashing chocolate brown mud that comes off the shoes of Kervin as he glide from the tunnel, I can feel the tense of what might happen next. Yes, we’re in a tunnel right now, the map indicated the next location, and to reach that we have to pass this damp and long abandoned tunnel. It was directly connected from the bar, so at the moment, we’re still underground, the thin air shrinks my lungs bit by bit. I don’t know how long will I manage to inhale the clammy oxygen. Kervin was ahead of us followed by Rave. Our steps shuffled in the narrow space. The light coming from my phone flickered and was eventually turned off in no time. “Shoot! My battery died,” I sighed, reaching the shoulder of Rave, I took an uncertain step. However, the device in her hand died as well. “Oh no!” she mumbled. “Don’t worry. I have a candle and matches,” he stopped to reach the matchbox in his pocket. He struck one and lit the candle.
