The 18th Month Letter

Chapter 3

"What are these for?" nagtatakang tanong ni Andrea habang tinitingnan ang laman ng plastic.

"I want to humiliate him." I answered.

Agad nalipat ang tingin nila sa'kin. "H-Ha?"

Nginisihan ko sila. "Gusto ko siyang ipahiya sa harap ng maraming tao. Gusto kong malaman kung hanggang saan aabot ang pagmamatigas niya."

Tinignan ko ang plastic na may laman na isang galon na kulay berdeng pinta at mga feathers, at saka flour. I can't wait to see him covered in these!

"What if Nixon finds out?" asked Perry.

"Yeah! It's impossible for him to not know because we're in the university." Andrea agrees.

"Then I don't care if he finds out. As long as this satisfies me, no one can stop me, even if it's Nix."

I instructed some people to execute it for me. Well, how will I do it by myself? They will just wait for Mason to walk in the school hallway near the lockers area. Then they'll just splash him with those things I bought. Simple lang naman!

Tatlo lang naman ang objectives ko as to by which virtue I'm performing this. Una, to displease him like what he committed to me. Ikalawa, to allow him endure until he kneels, begs, and accepts defeat. Ikatlo, to fulfill myself by watching them agonize. Marami na akong nasirang buhay, but this is different. This brings me exhilaration and enthusiasm. I learned I wouldn't feel boredom if I play games with him. A puppet needs company— a playmate. A game I called "Make one suffer until one wins".

I didn't know he's known in the university. I just lately found out. He's known for his good looks, intelligence, and tall height. He's fair skin. Too, he's intimidating just by how you look at him. It's just that, hindi halata sa kanya na mahirap lang siya.

"Bakit hindi man lang natin siya nakikita o napapansin noon?" Perry asked.

I'm just staring at the monitors of the CCTV as I sucked the lollipop in my mouth. Nasa loob kami ng Security Office dahil dito namin panonoorin ang panimulang paghihirap ko kay Mason.

"Maybe we're too busy... blind... or yet, did not know of his existence." I replied, still staring at the monitors, trying to look for him.

I saw my people hiding behind the lockers, waiting for his arrival.

"It's too impossible that we didn't notice or even knew his existence." Andrea said.

"I know right! The university's big but we knew people going here." Perry agrees.

"Besides, we ruined mostly the lives of the students here..." mahinang sabi ni Perry para mapatingin ako sa kanya.

I raised a brow. "You sounded na parang nakokonsensya ka."

She instantly shook her head. "Not that. I just don't get it why we didn't catch sight of him here if we're in the same university."

I saw Andrea sat on the table, where the monitors are and stared at it.

"Well, being cattiness truly goes on in the blood of Cole." she said with a grin on her face and looked at me.

Cole were both of our mother's family name before they even married our fathers.

I smiled viciously and turned to look at the monitors. Isa-isa kong tinignan ang mga monitors. Then my smile grew wider as I finally saw him going downstairs from the third floor at Cam 04. The hallway near the locker area was at Cam 03, where my plan is waiting to be executed.

"Do you think he'll walk there?" Perry asked curiously.

Inalis ko ang lollipop sa bibig ko habang hindi inaalis ang tingin sa monitor. "He'll go there..." I told them.
