The Psychometric's Girl ( Mind Series #1 )

Chapter 19: He strikes again

A/N: In this ud there will be two POV's, so we'll see who the other one is.

LILY
"

Are you okay?" Claide suddenly asked. "Kanina ka pang ganyan, nung nasa cafeteria tayo tulala ka na, tapos ngayong pauwi na tayo tulala ka pa rin? Is there a problem?"

"N-nothing. " Obviously, I lied.

He didn't talk. Did he..... read my mind?

When the car stopped, bumaba agad ako sa kotse nya.

"Wait Lily." He said as he grabbed my wrist. "Is there a problem?"

"Why don't you read my mind? And not act that you know nothing." Sabi ko sabay palag sa paghawak nya sa wrist ko.

"Lily... I don't want to invade your privacy.."

"Fck that privacy. Just fcking read it." I said, I totally lose my control.

He seems shocked. "Why can't you just tell me-"

"Because I can't! You.. nevermind." And then pumasok na ako sa bahay ng hindi natingin sa kanya.

'I'm so sorry' I said mentally.

I know that he can't read it but still I wanted to say sorry to him. Because I know I hurt him.

Umakyat na ako sa kwarto ko at humiga.

Why would he lie to me?

"Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Kasalanan mo to Cris. Pinagulo mo ang isip ko."

But what if, Cris is the one that is lying? But when I look into his eyes, I felt na hindi naman.

"Just fcking confront him Lily!" I said to myself. "Bakit mo ba pinalalaki ang issue? Nagsinungaling lang sya Lily. Tigilan mk nanga to."

"Anak may problema ba?" Bigla akong nagulat ng pumasok si Papa sa kwarto ko.

"Wala po Pa."

"Bakit ka na sigaw? May magnanakaw ba?"

"W-wala po Pa. Nanonood lang po ako ng nakakatakot na movie kaya ganon."

"Ah. Sya sige lalabas na ako."

"Sige po."

Pagkalabas na pagkalabas nya nakahinga ako ng maluwag.

Tigilan mo na nga ang pagsigaw sigaw at mag aral kana lang. May contest ka bukas.

Hayyy. Contest, hindi pa ako nakakasali dun. Hayst.

RUTH

"What took you so long Claide?" Oh and he didn't answer. "Asan yung gorlfriend mo?"

"Shut your fcking mouth Ruth."

I raised my hands a sign of defeat. May problema to. At isa lang ang naiisip ko, si Lily. Ano kayang issue nila.

Sa totoo lang, nung una kong makita yang si Lily, I was worried, she looks vulnerable at alam kong alam yun ni Claide.

"Stop what you're saying in your mind Ruth. Bakit mo ba ako tinawagan kanina?"

I sighed and then shook my head. "Gaya ng sinabi ko. Serial killings that are disguised as suicide case stopped. And we still don't know why."

"Kagaya ng sinabi ko. Maybe he only take a break."

"Why can't you just trace the killer para mapadali tayo?"
