Wednesday, 6:12 AM...

Yesterday was a great night, ngayong araw pahinga namin. Dito lang ako sa bahay as usual, I'm in my room right now, having my breakfast. May dumating na package sakin kahapon, kanina ko pa lang na buksan. It's from Kuya Frank and Ate Yeri, they're getting married, at kinuha nila kaming abay ni Ate. Ate Yeri is 5 months pregnant. I already told you about our family "tradition". Maaga silang nag-aasawa at nagpapamilya, it's almost always around their 20's. Their invitation came before we went to Alaska, first Friday of April. Sinukatan na rin kami ng suit and dress nung araw na 'yon.

Well, I already saw the suit, it's nice and it fits me. By the way, the wedding is on Friday. It will be a Garden Wedding. Gaganapin naman 'yon sa isa sa mga Events Place napag-aari ng pamilya nila Ate Yeri sa Batangas.

I have no plans today, and I thought to sneak into the mansion to find the secret room that my Lolo's mentioned in one of his videos. He told me that he was the only person who knew about that room, and now me. I've been thinking a lot about Lolo's death, I'm not sure about my claim that it might be a murder case, but when I found out about his medical records... everything started to get suspicious. Even if years have passed I know that this would still be a big deal. 

Out of my curiosity, I started researching some conspiracy theories regarding Lolo's death. Some of them did not make sense at all but there is only 1 that stood out for me, though I don't know who wrote it but I saved it just in case.

Pagkatapos kong kumain, magbibihis na ko. Kailangan kong makaisip ng dahilan para makapasok sa mansyon. 

"Railey!" someone's calling me.

Lumabas agad ako ng kwarto para malaman kung sino 'yon. Ofcourse it's Ate.

"What do you want?" tanong ko sa kanya.

"Ayoko sanang ibilin sayo 'to pero aalis ako. Nag message na ko kay Mommy, at pumayag naman siya." napairap lang ako.

"So what is it?" tanong ko ulit.

"There will be a meeting here in our village. Mommy is the President of that group thing, whatever, you know what that is. Ikaw ang aattend doon. Every 4 months she attends that meeting. So be there at exactly 7:30 AM. Besides last year ako um-attend sa meeting na 'yon so bye, see you later!" agad na siya umalis sa harap ko at hindi na ako hinintay na makasagot pa.

From what I know that meeting last for about an hour or 2, and that meeting thing is so boring. It's about the upgrades and updates of the village. They discuss cleanliness and security, and brainstorm ideas on how to make our village a "better place". They organize an event every year, like on Easter Sunday, Halloween, and Christmas.

So, I guess I can't go to the mansion today. My curiosity is killing me right now, ugh!

As I expected, it was so boring*eye-roll*. They keep staring at me, I don't know why. They also ask for my opinion. And I was like. "Yeah yeah, that's a good idea" even though the truth is I didn't understand a thing that they say. My focus is somewhere else. I'm still thinking about how can I sneak into the mansion, without anyone noticing me.
