Chapter 78: Another Disguise
Last Updated:
2021-09-08 23:47:02After realizing that there were really tens of tens of cameras scattering and hiding in all corners absent from the naked eye, Rabiya and I went back to the whole point why we started to initiate this protest. As we watched the heavy rain being heaved by the gray clouds above, making sure that in whatever way possible the rain would never flush down, I stepped twice to elevate myself on the pavement.
Rabiya thought it was a little convenient to ask for Travis’ suggestion now that we were fucked up literally, so, she really did. “This is the end of the line for me and for Chuck. Care to suggest something that might bring back the moral we have lost?” Rabiya asked, there was a little hint of shame and despise on her voice, and a tone of disappointment to herself and the plan she initiated last night.
She must be thinking she was dumb because the faculty and the vice mayor himself was able to think through of something they mi

RABIYAA beautiful face could never defeat a sexy mind. But in Travis Exposito’s case, he had both. He had a charm twice as the charm of the prince of the British Empire, while at the same time had a mind as sexy as the mind of Professor in a Netflix series called La Casa De Papel. I need not to argue about it anymore because it was all true. No one could ever change my mind in whatever way, and no one could ever convince me to stop liking and adoring the son of the town’s great detective.As we watch Travis brother unbolted the door of his private car, we spread wide and disarrayed on the pavement for no reason.

Could somebody please tell me how to not be sad knowing you wanted to follow your old man’s footsteps but you were not that good enough to do that? And one more thing; every thing I had been feeling all this time, were these just bits and pigments of sadness brought by the demises of the victims, or was I just really depressed with everything that had been going through? I could not figure which was which. Can somebody please do it for me?As I continued gazing to the crystal clear lake beneath the sloping stone bridge, I did not know that pulps of tears were already forming on the corners of my eyes. They were big drops of waters when they fell and rolled over my cheeks down to my neck. As far as I could genuinely remember, this was the first time I ever cried. Like real cry. Not forced. Not faked. Not a product of my over-intensified talent in drama. The sob I did after seeing the dead bodies of my two classmates were fake. Yes, they were indeed fake. It

CHUCKAs we walked back to the covered gym where outside of it were the students gathering up for a protest they did not knew was useless, I noticed that Travis was not on his usual self. He would often look around as if he was looking for someone or something, and then he would partially talk to himself and discuss matters on his own. I tried to ask him about it, like ask him about what he was so anxious about, but he would just smile at me and nod his head while saying, “no, I am good. I am fine.” But based on his body language, he was completely not fine.When we arrived at the curve on the left wing of the area, it was when an intense and gratifying event took place. As strange as it may seemed, Travis suddenly paused on his spot and all of a sudden, he stopped breathing. Like he just stood there, steady and unbothered on his position, while looking up to the se

TRAVIS“This is where the magic happens.”As far as I could remember, these six words were the only words I said after I left Chuck and Rabiya on the pavement not far from behind the group of students participating in the protest. And thinking about it, I could say that to them, it might have sounded like a promise. Or like a platform. Or like a pledge. Or like something whatever you call when one had said something to you and you just listened at it thinking, ‘this are quite nice words. I will remember these. I will lock these in my ears and I will get back on them when the time comes for them to come true.’ But the truth was, none of these referred to the words I said. Because if I had to think of a word that would best describe the sentence that I blurted out four minutes and fifty-five seconds ago, it should be a ‘lie.’ Yes, it was all just a ‘lie.’

RABIYAI was greatly startled when I saw Chuck running and rushing through the heavy, populated, mammoth crowd, bumping each and every person blocking his way. He was as if in an emergency based on how the way he creased his forehead as he shot a blaze of his meteor eyes towards my direction. While snaking through the students, he tried to shout out a few words, but the on going protest was growing more and more intense and loud, that was why there was no way I was able to hear him or perhaps figure out what he was saying the whole time.Convinced that it was really an emergency, I met him halfway. I tossed my megaphone to Philip, and I wore off the placard I hung on my self. i treaded past the line formed by our classmates, and I did not gave a damn if whether or not their eyes and gazes were following me. As sooner as we can, we met in the middle and that was when everything suddenly came into light.

The amount of fear and trembling I and Chuck both felt was overwhelming enough to send shivers all over our body. It was kind of ironic to believe that Travis suddenly disappeared out of nowhere along with that sophomore student, knowing that if there was anything bad that really happened, he should have sent instant warning or notifications right away. He could have left patterns on the pavements and the path walks, or he could have shouted loud enough to be heard. There were a plenty of ways he could do to send a signal of warning, but he did not. And in this case, the worst thing that could happen was that, it was him who was in danger. Not the sophomore student.Chuck and I stared at each other and by simply doing it, I could already tell that we were thinking the same thing. ‘What if Travis had an encounter with the serial killer?’ ‘What he had crossed paths with that psychopath and found no way to escape?’ ‘What if he’s

The Photo Collector Chapter 151: The Letter
SAMANTHA Everything went so fast and abrupt since we decided to ditch the police and never show up in either of anyone’s houses. The best part was that, I felt what it was like being a villain. Yes, the way we moved, the way we established plans, and the way we executed them, it surely the same as how villains did their job on movies.By around this time, we were now inside our house. The black truck was parked outside the gate, as all of us entered inside to take a short break. While the rest were slouching on the sofa beds, I and my twin brother Vhynz searched the house to look for the map of the island where our slaughterhouse business was located. Well, the thing was, neither of us two was able to remember where we put that thing. All I could remember was the passcode of the safe where the credit cards and the money was left by our parents. When I checked it the moment we arrived, the map wa
The Photo Collector Chapter 150: Plans, We Need Plans
CHUCKLooking at Travis when he followed to cop to lead him to where our tents were located was already a pain in the eyes to me. I could sense the fear he was feeling from afar, and I could hear the loud drum rolls of his heart as he walked steps farther away that us. It was already given that if someone was here in this island with us, chances was that, he or should could have planted the evidences that linked to us inside one of those tents. There could be a slim possibility that we would be proven guilty. Every single one of us were drunk and wasted last night; it would have been a perfect opportunity for the killer to get our fingerprints or perhaps, to be more believable, tag the murder weapon in our hands right after killing Janvic with it. But until now, I still did not realize how Janvic was killed. There were bruises and stabbed wounds all over his body, but they were scattered. Was it a brutal way of slaughtering? Or
The Photo Collector Chapter 149: Torture
A not so long time had passed but still none of Noel Hummingbird’s so called disciples had went out of the cottage to give us at least the tiniest update they could provide regarding on how was the status of the conversation. It has been an hour already since the clash between Philip and the detective had happened, but still, here we were, pinned down to the ground just yet, feeling the intense numbing of our arms, and the pain on our necks as we contest on our nerves about who will stay longer in this position and who will remain surviving until the end of the investigation protocol. While we were trying our best not to collapse and get passed out on our spot where everyone of us friends were gathered, I decided maybe it was best if we had our own little chitchat just to shut down the dead air that had been wrapping and suffocating us. I initiated the conversation, and thank all the heavens above my classmates chimed in and made it as fluent as possible. “Are you still
The Photo Collector Chapter 148: Suspects
TRAVISWhen we heard the sirens wailed from afar, we already suspected that it was them already; Philip with the rest of our friends, and then the police car. Hearing them made us skip each of our things that we were doing and ran out of the cottage to meet them half way. There were some signs of relief in my heart, but at the same time I could not deny the fact that there were also nerves of nervousness trying to ruin the day. Obviously, none of us three who were left here in the cottage was the killer, and there supposedly have no reason for us to be feeling guilty. But why are we feeling the complete opposite? Why, while running going outside, are we feeling as if we wanted to hide something only to make sure that we could prove ourselves innocent? And lastly, why did I feel like here would go another round of spitting lies again, only to assure that this time, I, or neither of Rabiya and Chuck, would not be accused a killer?
The Photo Collector Chapter 147: All Are Shitty
RABIYA The amount of boxes for Travis to unpack was so overwhelming, just as overwhelming as the number of drawers I had check to make sure that not a single clue will be left unseen. Ever since we started doing what we were opt to do, we had not yet seen an evidence. Not one. Not even a little, slight, or discreet one. At this point of our semi investigation, I was now starting to think that what if there were really no clues hidden inside the cottage? What if we were just used to know that this was the usual routine every time there was a crime happening that it brought us to conclude that the same protocol should be implemented? I rested my face from frowning because of the unpleasant smell coming from the utensils that were long kept inside the drawers-- only God knew how long had they been there inside their cases. I moved three steps away from the kitchen cabinet, and then clapped the dusts off my hands. I then washed the
The Photo Collector Chapter 146: Breakfast Us Three
CHUCK After five minutes at most, Rabiya got out of the kitchen room with a serving platter and three cups of coffee. Just by the aroma of it, and just by seeing how the steam evaporated in the air sending thin clouds of visible smoke towards us, as if a hand trying to seduce us to drink it right away, I could already determine that the freshly brewed coffee were so satisfying. I jumped out of the sofa where I decided to sit for three minutes, and fetched Rabiya from the isle to get the cup she prepared for me. I determined it right away which cup was mine, because I was the only one who ordered my coffee to be black and pure. No sure, no creamer, no anything at all. “You better be sure this taste great,” I threatened Rabiya in a jokingly manner. She just gave me a good smirk, as if she was utterly confident that her brewed coffee would meet the standards of my peculiar taste buds. I then picked up another cup, the
The Photo Collector Chapter 145: Safe and Sound
It did not took us that long to finally accept the fact that now, starting from this moment, there will only be the three of us left here. I did not know how would I begin to internalize us, but every single time I would think about the isolation i give to our own selves, the first few things that wold cross my minds were death, conflicts, and again, another crime. Right now, just simply thinking about how big this place was for only the three of us who were left inside the beach resort, I was already defeated by the fact that we were completely overwhelmed. I did not know what was circling inside Travis’ mind at this exact moment, but there was only one thing I was sure: Whatever it was, it must be very, very complicated. I walked my feet away from the garage after the black truck Philip used to drive Janvic exited a couple of minutes ago. If not because of the wind which slapped me a cool hand on my face, never would I ever have awaken myself from that lucid daydream I had.

The Photo Collector Chapter 143: Delicately Dangerous
ANDREI Travis grouped us all into two, where each and every group had its own task to perform, all of which were very vital to the progress of our movement. The first group were merely composed of Geodie, Samantha, Cylvia, Yuri, Philip, and me. Based on the instructions of our acting leader who was Travis, we are going to be the group that will send Janvic to the nearest hospital and at the same time call the cops and bring them back here. Meanwhile, the other group which was composed of only Travis, Chuck, and Rabiya, they will be the ones that will remain here to check and investigate the place. When I asked Travis if the job was not too big for only the three of them to handle, he answered me firmly and confidently, ‘the lesser we are here, the easier the job will be.’ Well, that only made a lot of sense because it would be harder if there will be more people to stay here. The more the people will stay, the more
