"Candie was in this class." Binalik ko na lahat ng portfoliong binasa ko. "Why is there no info about her?" Nakakapagtaka lang dahil wala akong makitang information tungkol sa kaniya. She was a School Model before she died kaya hindi ko maiwasang mapaisip.

From the window, i saw Sir Levie. It was too late para makapagtago ako.

"What are you doing?" He asked, curiously.

At first, hindi ko alam kung anong isasagot ko. Sasabihin ko ba kung anong totoo o hindi? "Sir.."

"What are you doing?" He once again asked. From the window, pumasok siya sa loob. Tumingin muna siya sa labas. "Students can't be here during this time. 'Di ba dapat asa field ka while checking your health?"

I agree. Gusto ko lang malaman kung ano ba talagang nangyari sa kapatid ko. I can't believe walang suspect sa nangyari sa kaniya. Hindi pwedeng namatay lang siya basta-basta. I think someone is responsible for that.

"But it's not appropriate for you to come here either." I said.

As far as I remember, hindi pwedeng pumasok sa Director's Office ng wala siya to protect his own privacy. Confidential lahat ng files that's why i'm here pero wala akong makuhang info. Wala rin naman CCTV sa labas at loob kaya hindi nakakatakot pumasok.

"I have my permission. What ever you are looking for, you can leave it and go." He said while looking around the office, curiously. "I will act i didn't see you here."

"I'm looking for the info of Ms. Candie Domingo. The student who mysteriously died without a proper investigation that can lead to the identity of the suspect. Why did the school erase all her records even though she is the model of this school before?" Ipinakita ko sa kaniya ang picture ng kapatid ko. He recognized it.

"If you can't find it, you can't find it." He said, seriously. Hindi ako makapaniwala. Hindi kami naniniwala na basta nalang siyang namatay. Sa mismong eskwelahan pa na ito. "That's all."

"I know that the school still keep records of graduate students kahit gaano pa ito katagal. But why they deleted the info of a dead student? Actually, she was still a student here kahit patay na siya." I said defending myself.

Up to this day, umaasa pa rin kami na malalaman namin kung anong totoo. Kung kailangan kong lumipat at pumasok sa eskwelahang 'to ay gagawin ko.

"The students who are missing or died doesn't count as a current student here." He replied. I can't help but to keep silent. Gusto kong magalit pero hindi ko magawa. "Get out!"

Lumabas na ako. Pagkatapos naming mag-usap ni Sir Levie dumiretso kaagad ako sa field kung saan nagpupunta lahat ng studyante para magpahealth check-up. It is required kaya wala kaming magawa. Obligadong um-attend kaming lahat.

May biglang nagtanggal ng headset kaya napahinto ako. Napalingon ako sa kanila. "It's me." He said. It was Glenn when I recognized him. Kasama niya 'yung Miro.

"What?" I asked, seriously. Matalim ko silang tiningnan. Kanina lang ay hindi sila magkasundi kung anong gagawin kay Glenn habang hinahabol nila. Is this a joke? "Hindi ba't ikaw 'yung nagnakaw ng answer key sa faculty? Why are you still here?"
