Race's POV
7:34AM
Race:
Hey? Where are you? I already texted you the address but why you aren't here?
Zena, please come here at the Town Circle. I'm here waiting for you...
I heaved a sigh as I pressed the send button. Nakaupo ako ngayon sa motorbike kong nakaparada sa gilid ng Town Circle. Maraming mga batang nagkalat at naglalaro. There were also some high school teenage girls who were talking around. Some were looking at me. May mga nagsu-zumba rin at nagja-jogging. The whole place was so alive.
Race's POVI'm still drowning from my own thoughts. Napakaraming impormasiyon ang mga nadiskubre ko na halos hindi na maproseso nang maayos ng utak ko. She also told Zena about her true identity. Kagaya ko, mababaliw na rin yata si Zena sa mga sinasabi ni Alexsha para sa amin. Alam ko meron pa rin siyang hindi nasasabi sa akin bukod na siya ang nagmamay-ari ng Dimitria's Nightclub. It has five branches nationwide. Sa Makati, Laguna, Pampangga tapos hindi ko na matandaan 'yong dalawa. Bahala na! I should prepare myself from all the revealations she wanted to tell us about.We ordered foods for breakfast. It was just passed nine in the morning anyway.We were eating together in silence at the canteen area inside the
Race's POVWe stopped by one of the supermarket in town. Dahil busog pa't alam naming hahanap at hahanap kami ni Zena ng snacks mamayang pagkatapos ng tanghalian, sumaglit muna kami sa supermarket para bumili.I took the cart. I remembered us walking casually while approaching the chips aisle and I didn't expect us to make fun out of it. Sumakay ba naman kasi si Zena sa cart."Hey, horsie! Run faster, yiha!" She yelled and hit the cart like it was somewhat kind of a horse in a horse track. Napailing ako sa kanya dahil ako ang nasa likuran at nagtutulak ng cart.This is such a good opportunity to enjoy so I rode in to her trip. Tinulak ko 'yong push cart na sinasakyan niya. I maintained my speed and made the aisle like an obstable course. Dampot naman nang dampot si Zena ng mga chips
Race's POV Nang maubos na lahat 'yong matitinong sachet sa cart, hinarap na ko ni Zena. She was smiling from ear to ear while pushing the cart towards me. "Well done!" Nakangiti niyang sambit sa akin. I just shrugged my shoulders. Itutulak niya na sana ulit 'yong cart when I stopped her, took the cart from her and set it aside. Kinuha ko 'yong scarf sa bulsa ko at saka pinunasan 'yong mga pawis niya sa noo. Nang tumama 'yong tingin ko sa kanya'y saglit kaming nagkatitigan. I felt uneasy as my heart raced so fast. I'm too afraid she might hear the loud sound it was making. Pinagpawisan din ako nang wala sa oras. Her smile suddenly vanished as she stole the scarf from me. "I can do it myself, Race. Don't baby me to much. Bahala ka baka masanay ako. Ikaw din." She said. Naalala ko tuloy na sinabi n
Race's POV"Oh my gosh! Marunong ka pala magsalita! It just wow!" Said Zena as she chuckled.Nandito kami ngayon sa Jollybabe at kasalukuyang kumakain. Hindi ko alam pero hindi ko pa maumpisahang galawin 'yong pagkain ko. I was just busy looking at Zena and that child named Silly. She was just five years old. Honestly, naaawa ako sa kanya. Though, she didn't say anything aside from the 'thank you' words we got from her after she finished one plate of Jollybeef stake. Meron pa pala no'ng tinanong namin 'yong pangalan niya. She just said Silly then nothing came from her after that single word introduction. Mukha ring mahiyain ang bata't mailap sa tao. Bukod do'n ay puro dungis din 'to sa mukha't nanlilimahid ang damit sa dumi. That made other costumer to take a look at us and be bot
Race's POV"I want this one. Try this." Utos sa akin ni Zena saka ako pinagtulakan papasok ng fitting room. I have no choice but to follow.Nandito kami ngayon sa baklaran. After buying some shirts and shorts for Silly, we stopped on one of the wardrobe outlets here. Iniabot sa akin ni Zena 'yong vest saka isang puting long sleeves kanina. I don't know what got into her to push me wear these kind of cloathes. One thing's for sure, I might look like an anime cosplayer by wearing this kind of outfit.Sinuot ko na lang 'yon saka nagtungo sa labas. My polo shirt was rested on my right arm. Zena took it right away."Wear that one. Mas okay 'yan." She dem
Race's POVShe stood up and pulled me from lying. Dahil pasuray-suray at sa takot na rin na bumuwal kaming dalawa, inakbayan ko siya't inalalayan ang bawat hakbang na ginagawa. Lasing na rin ako't dumodoble na ang aking paningin. But unlike her, I know I'm still on my good state.Malapit na kami ni Zena sa sofa nang bigla siyang humiwalay sa akin. She faced me and I was startled when she pushed me. Mabuti na lang at nasalo ako ng sofa.Kahit na hilong-hilo dahil sa pagbagsak ay balak ko na sanang bumangon nang biglang maghubad si Zena sa harapan ko. She took her umbrella dress just like that. Now, she was just wearing her undergarments. Napaiwas ako nang tingin."Zena, you're drunk." Sabi ko't balak na sanang
Race's POVI woke up by the sounds of raindrops on the roof. Nakaramdam ako nang lamig dahilan para mapayakap ako sa sariling katawan. I'm naked.Napadilat agad ako ng mga mata. I was surprised to see a blanket that was covering my manhood. Walang tao sa buong paligid. It was just me, myself and I on this haunted place.Napabangon ako mula sa pagkakahiga sa sofa at saka nilibot nang tingin ang buong paligid. She wasn't here anymore. Nasaan na kaya si Zena?I smelled something. Napalibot ako nang tingin sa paligid at namataan ang tasa at isang platong may tinapay.I wrapped the blanket around my waist and stood up. Nagtungo ako sa lamesang ilang dipa lang din ang layo s
Race's POVI cried as I crawled towards Jace. Ace stood up the moment I reached him. He gave way for me to talk with my sibling. I smiled like how my younger brother was smiling at me."I miss you so much, Kuya." He said. I closed my eyes as the tears bursted out again. My body just moved only to make a hug for my long lost brother. Finally, he's here with me. Mom and Dad, I've finally found Jace. Hinding-hindi ko na po siya pababayaang makawala pa sa paningin ko.Jace embraced me like I came from abroad and this was the first ever time we have to see each other. We both cried as I heard them cried with us. My body was shaking so bad. My fingers were trembling and I couldn't even breathe properly. Hindi ko magawang
