NYC:11

NYC : 11

EUREKA'S POV

WEEE WOOO! WEEE WOOO!

The siren rings about the city. Too loud. Two, huge firetrucks— with red alarming lights on top of each— came rushing down the streets.

As the firetrucks passed by, it eventually vanished at the end of the road.

Nilibot ko ang aking paningin. All I see are large buildings, skyscrapers. Hindi lang basta gusali na gawa sa semento ang mga buildings dito. Those buildings are mostly built in digital glasses.

Napakaraming billboards na naka-display sa bawat gusali. Take note: billboards na gawa sa LED screens. Mala-tore ang size ng mga 'to. It's like having a cinema screens flashing everywhere.

Ang isang screen sa napakalaking building ay nagpi-play ng Spiderman Trailer. 'Yung kabilang building naman ay may malaking billboard na nagpi-play ng Apple Device Commercial. At marami pang iba!

Also, there is an ocean of human bodies walking everywhere!

People are flooding down the sidewalk. Maingay at sobrang daming... Beep! Beep! Beep! Busina rito, busina roon! Vehicles were chained down the main road, moving like snail.

One sentence: This place is so, so, sooo alive!

"Ladies and gentlemen,"  Jon announced.  "Welcome to the Time Square of Manhattan."

Yes, as he said, we are at the all-so famous TIME SQUARE in New York!

Kapag mas tumitingin ako sa paligid, mas nalulula ako sa mga nagtataasang gusali kung saan-saan.

"So? Ano nang sunod na gagawin natin? Pa'no natin 'to maibabalik kay Miss Jane kun'di natin alam kung nasa'n siya?"  Sabay angat ni Jonathan sa bitbit n'yang satchel bag. He's referring to the necklace inside his bag.

Ngumuso ako. "Hindi ko rin alam. Walang binigay na clue si Miss Jane kung saan at pa'no natin siya mahahanap. Nakakapagtakha nga eh. How can we play her game without knowing any instructions?"

Naglalakad kaming tatlo sa sidewalk ng Times Square. Actually, hindi namin alam kung pa'no kami napunta rito. We just started roaming around the city, hanggang sa napadpad kami sa lugar na 'to.

There are many pedestrian people walking back and forth around us. Nanatili kaming tatlo: nina Ele at Jon, na magkakasabay habang naglalakad. Nasa gitna pa nila 'kong dalawa.

"Kainis! Akala ko magiging madali lang 'tong gagawin nating pagsasauli ng kwintas. Tsk! Bakit ba kasi may pa-game-game pa iyang si Miss Jane eh!? Dami niyang alam!"

Habang nagrereklamo si Jon, si Ele naman ay tahimik at nakatungo lamang sa phone n'ya. He's dialing on his phone.

Maya-maya'y huminto si Ele, kaya napahinto rin kami ni Jonathan. Now, we are stopping by the corner of a lane, under a traffic light.

I frowned. "Anong meron?"

Ele, then raised his phone. Napatingin kami sa phone niya, and guess what? It's a video call! A familiar man was flashed on the phone's screen.
