The Only Girl Of Section 5

𝙲𝚑𝚊𝚙𝚝𝚎𝚛 𝟺𝟺

CJ's POV:

"She's waking up."

"You explain to her."

"Woah why me?"

"In case you forgot, 5 hours ago you're the one who injected that drug in her."

"Woah sh*t you guys are using drugs?!" Napabalikwas ako ng bangon at gulat na tumingin sa mga pinsan ko. Ngunit napangiwi ako nang maramdaman ko ang pagkirot ng kamao ko. Parehong may nakabalot na benda dito. I sighed.

"I did it again, didn't I?' I asked them even though I already know the answer. I looked at my arm where the thing is planted.

"You didn't mean it. You only did that to protect yourself, and your friend." Kuya LZ said.

"Yeah. And I'm 100% sure I scared the sh*t out of him. Saan ka naman kasi makakakita ng matinong 16 years old na kayang putulin ang handcuffs, kayang bumali ng buto at marunong gumamit ng baril?" I said. "I don't think I can show myself to them ever again." I said and hugged my knees. "I'm a monster. I'm a f*cking monster.' I whispered.

"Should we go see a psychiatrist?" Rinig kong tanong ni KZ. Narinig ko ang mahinang pagdaing niya. Binatukan siguro.

"And then what? Iisa lang naman ang sasabihan ng mga 'yan. Na I suffered in a trauma because of being abused, started to imagine things, and then have a split personality. They all think I'm crazy as f*ck." I said. "Well maybe I am crazy." I added.

"What now you're going to believe them when you know for yourself the truth?" Someone said. I chuckled.

"Now I'm hearing things. Share ko lang naririnig ko yung boses ni Ice. Teka, why am I even thinking of him? When we went to the psychiatrist las time, she said maybe I'm starting to hear things because I'm thinking of it." I said.

"I'm here stupid." Automatic na umangat ang tingin at nakitang kumpleto ang section 5 na nakatayo sa may pintuan. At noon ko lang napansin na wala ako sa kwarto ko.

"Where am I?" I asked. Rinig ko ang pagtawa ni EZ.

"Sa lahat nang nagising, ikaw lang ang narinig kong nagtanong kung nagamit ba kami ng droga." Tumatawang sabi niya. Sinamaan ko siya ng tingin pero waepek lang.

"We're going to leave you guys so you could talk." Sabi ni Ate HZ at hinila palabas si EZ. Ganun rin ang ginawa ng iba pa. Si kuya LZ naman kahit labag sa loob ay sumunod sakanila palabas.

"Ate, okay ka lang?" Tanong ni Renz.

"Renz! Ayos ka lang? May tinamaan ba sayo?" Nag-aalalang tanong ko at agad na bumangon sa kama para i-check siya.

"Huy CJ maawa ka dun sa bata nilalamutak mo na." Natatawang sabi ni Kyle.

"Yung ano, sino nga uli yun? Si Jigsaw! Pinaputukan niya kanina yung pwesto niya." Nag-aalalang sabi ko. "Teka nga, asan na yung lalaking yun?" Tanong ko sakanila.

"At the hospital. You know when you..." Sabi ni Dev at in-act yung baril na nakatuok sa hita niya.

"I crossed the line." Mahinang sabi ko. Muli akong bumalik sa kama at sumandal sa headboard.

"I—I know I'm not in the right place to ask but, what happened back there?" tanong ni Clover. Tumingin ako kay Ice at kay Renz tsaka tiningnan silang lahat.

"You guys might want to sit down. Mahaba-habang kwentuhan 'to." Sabi ko. Agad naman silang umupo. May iba pang naglabas ng chips.

Takte ginawa akong storyteller wengya.
