From the window, someone suddenly threw a crumpled piece of paper at me, so I picked it up and peeked out the window. I saw Eros, Mark, and Van together, so I turned around and read the paper I was holding.
"Six pm at the NP club." As stated in the paper. I looked out the window again and saw them walking away as Eros waved at me.
When the class ended, my friends immediately went inside and approached me.
“Hey, dude. Are you coming?” Mark's first question to me was as he rested one of his arms on my shoulder and as I put my belongings in the bag.
“Of course! Sixto is coming, isn't he?” Eros said that I just smiled, and I left our classroom, while the three of them followed me.Since I moved to this university, they have become my friends. The three of them were the first to talk to me and helped me so that I could easily adjust to this university. They're so kind and trustworthy, but I can't say that they are a good influence on me because they often miss class and go to various disco clubs. But somehow I was happy to meet them. If not because of them, I may not have been in this place for long, so I may be alone until now.
“Wait, where are you taking me?” I said as they dragged me inside the disco club.
It was Tuesday night and our class was over. I was going to go home, but I didn't expect these three to be waiting for me in front of our university. Then all of a sudden, they took me here to an unfamiliar place.
“Come inside, Sixto. Just chill. We'll take care of you. You won't pay anything here because I'm the one who will take care of the bill.” Eros said. I tried not to go with them, but they forced me inside, and I was stunned when I looked around.
The noise, I could hear nothing but loud music while the people were dancing there. Dark and smoky smell of cigarettes. The people here at the club are definitely not minors anymore.
“See? There's nothing special about here. Just have fun, bro. Just dance as much as you want.” Mark shouted at me because there was so much noise inside, and we couldn't hear each other anymore. I didn't answer him and just sat quietly. I still can't believe what I'm seeing. It's only now that I've entered this kind of place, and I can't help but be amazed at everything I see. There are people kissing, drinking while dancing and there are also good at dancing.
I often only watch it on television, but it really feels different when you are right there in reality.“Hi, boys! Can we sit with you?”
Suddenly, two women approached us and sat at our table. We still did not answer them, but they sat down right next to us.
My eyes widened when I saw their thighs and cleavages to their fitted clothes. They were both wearing short dresses, so their every move was tempting to look at. However, I just avoided looking at them and I swallowed deeply. I noticed that even Eros and Mark were nervous about the two women with us now, except for Van, who had no reaction and was quietly drinking whiskey.“Wait, isn't that still forbidden to us?” I pointed to the glass he was holding. He was stunned and looked at me.
“What do you mean? Aren't you adults? So, it's okay to drink alcohol here.” Said by the woman next to me, and she drank alcohol at the same time.
I exchanged glances with Eros, and he shook his head. He pointed his cellphone at me, so I pulled my cellphone out of my pocket. I saw he sent me a message and I opened it.
“They can't know we're just freshmens students. Otherwise, they might kicked us out of here and we won't be able to get in here again.” He said, so I looked at him again, and I just nodded.
“Here.” Suddenly, the woman next to me handed me a glass of alcohol. I stared for a few seconds at what she offered me, then I accepted it, and I first glanced at the three boys before I drank it.They applauded, while I was sick of the bitter taste of the alcohol. When I first tasted it, I immediately felt dizzy and my throat felt like it was on fire from the intense heat it caused. Maybe that’s only natural for a first timer like me who doesn’t really get drunk or never drinks alcohol. But as the time passed by we drank more and more bottles. I was drowning in extreme drunkenness, and I no longer knew what I was doing. So did Eros and Mark, who had fallen asleep drunk. While this man, Van, was still relaxed sitting in his chair while he was smoking. He seems to be used to this kind of vice, so alcohol does not work for him.“Why do you look at me like that?” He asked with a serious face. I didn't answer and just pointed to the cigarette he was holding. I wanted to tell him something, but I forgot, and I had no intention of trying what he was doing when he suddenly stood up and approached me.
“You want to try?” He asked, but I just stared at him. I saw him grin, and then he put his cigarette in the middle of my two fingers, so I was surprised and looked at him again.
“That's okay, you'll just try. There's nothing wrong with that, right?” He added, and I turned my attention to the cigarette I was holding.Wait, why is that? Why am I even more dizzy from the smell of it's smoke? What’s so special about this cigarette, and why does everybody around us is holding a thing like this?
Out of curiosity, I tried to suck it up like Van had done earlier. He was still looking at me as he had a wide smile on his lips. I blew smoke in his face, then he laughed and clapped his hands. I don’t know why he does that or what’s funny about what I did, but I seem to like it what I’m doing now. Furthermore, I repeated over and over until the ash dwindled and disappeared. It gives me a different enticement, and only now have I felt this kind of feeling. It was as if I were lying in the clouds and as if I had a world of my own.Then suddenly, the woman next to me kissed me on the lips. That was my first kiss, so I haven’t had much experience in kissing yet. I followed her every move until we got to a room and lay down on the bed. There were no questions or conversations as she suddenly took off her clothes and kissed me on every part of my body. Because of my drunkenness, I didn't even know what I was doing. I didn't realize that I was already naked, and my hands gradually came down to her thighs. Her loud growl I could hear throughout the room, and she hugged me tightly as we felt the same feeling. Then I just fell while I was still on top of her. I fell asleep and when I woke up my hands were handcuffed, and I became a criminal.
“I'm not a sinner. Let me out of here!” I shouted over and over again while I was inside the cell with the criminals who had long been imprisoned here.“We were like that when we first came here. But no one listened to us, and no one believed. Once you were imprisoned, and you became a criminal, other people would not change their opinion of you even if you said you were innocent. You just need to follow the law and accept the punishment the court will impose on you.” The man said, as he sat in a corner and read a book. I turned to him and looked at the place where I was now.“But I'm different from you. I'm telling the truth, I'm innocent, and I haven't killed anyone else. So, I shouldn't be imprisoned here.” I told him, at once he lowered the book he was holding, and he looked at me.“If you have committed no sin, why are you here now? If you are not a criminal, what are you doing here?” It was curious, but I didn't answer and just bowed my head.I can’t say that what he told me was
It's been two months since I was imprisoned for a crime I didn't commit. My mother has not visited me for over two weeks.Has she forgotten me? Or maybe she has already left me because she's ashamed to face other people that she has a criminal child.As the hours and days passed, my situation here in prison became more and more difficult. There was never a day that I was not punched by their fist and I could not eat properly because my face and lips were full of wounds.Until one day my aunt visited me. I wonder why she wasn’t with mom and why she was alone. But I was stunned when she suddenly cried in front of me and held my hands.“Your mother is gone, Sixto.” She said that I was shocked, but I did not believe her right away. I took my hand away from her and stood up.“What are you saying, aunt? You're just kidding, aren't you?” I said, but I know she is serious about what she is saying, but I cannot accept the shocking news she told me.I sat down in my chair and was stunned by her
We got Zero into the group of bullies, and we taught them a lesson as well. I threw them all on the floor with their faces covered in bruises. “Who is your leader?” I asked as they exchanged glances with each other, and no one answered. “If you don't tell me who your leader is, you will all be able to taste my fist. So, I will repeat. Who is your leader?” I added, and they all point the same person. I stood up and approached what they were referring to. Furthermore, I pulled him over the collar and stared him sharply in the eye. “Are you their leader?” I asked, but he grinned. The person in front of me now is the one who hit me on my first day here in jail. I never thought he would do that and form a group, so he could get revenge on me. But I wish they had just hit me, not Zero who has no fighting ability. “I notice that you're only fighting the weak. Is that all your ability can achieve? Why don't you fight me now? Do you want the two of us to decide which of us will win?” I said
“Speed, come in!”All the cells were opened, so we picked the one closer to us, and we went inside.“Wait! Who's going to close the outside?” Kaiser asked as we exchanged glances with each other.No one wants to volunteer who will lock the door because the lock is on the outside. Who will volunteer to close the door if you are left outside and zombies are chasing you? Even if I were the leader of this group, I would not be brave enough to sacrifice my own life. I need to get out of this place. I had to escape alive so that I could bring justice to my mother’s death.“What kind of question is that? Do you want to throw one of us out to close the door? If we lock it, how can we get out? What if the zombies eat the person outside? Where is your brain, bro?” Simon said and Kaiser just scratching his back head.“We better find something heavy that we can block at the door.” I said, and they all agreed, so they immediately looked for something we could block from the zombies.I also looked
Our comrades hurriedly helped to close the door and to keep the zombies from entering. I looked around the whole corner of the room and caught my eye the broom reed. I used it pushing into the hands of zombies who were straining to squeeze and wanted to enter inside. Suddenly, Simon turned to me, so he also looked for something that could be pushed to the zombies. They were not easy to drive away, especially since there were so many of them and there were only a few of us inside.“Kiko and Simon return the items. Block the door while Kaiser and I drive away the zombies. And Kaiser when they block the door, you leave immediately, okay?” when I said that they just nodded their heads and immediately did what I asked them to do.I turned to Zero who was a quiet and just watching us. I just shook my head and turned my attention to what I was doing.After blocking the door, Kaiser immediately left the door. But that still wasn’t enough for us to stop the zombies from entering inside. They o
I was horrified by what Zero asked me. I’m uncertain if he was worried about Ace, or he had something to do with what happened to him. But impossible. He can’t afford to do that, and I believe he’s innocent.“Sixto.” Kaiser called me, so I turned my gaze to him and I immediately approached him. “Look at Ace's side. Doesn't it look like he has a deep wound there? Doesn't it seem like he was stabbed in the side?” He added as we watched the deep wound Ace had inflicted on the body. Perhaps that is why he died. And it only means that one of us is an impostor. He kills, then he throws it out to release that he is infected with zombies.But why? Why did he do that to Ace? What is his purpose? And who among us is the real impostor?I turned to my colleagues inside. I looked them in the face one by one, but I didn't notice anything different in each of their movements except for Zero. With a strange look in his eyes and a grin on his lips. I noticed that he was already staring at Ramon as he
We tied up Ramon to make sure if he really had nothing to do with what happened to Ace. We were all watching him. We sat on the floor while facing him. Zero was next to me, staring quietly and sharply at Ramon. I noticed that Ramon looked at him, so he grinned and shook his head.“I never thought this would happen to him. He's a very kind person, and he has so many dreams for himself. Just one night, he was telling me how excited he was to get out of this place.” Kiko's sad in a sad voice as he bowed his head. I also felt sadness and pity for what happened to Ace. I did nothing for him to save him.Furthermore, I really didn't expect this will happen to us and why that person killing someone even though we have a little chance of getting out of this prison alive.“Why do you look at me like that?” Ramon suddenly said to Kiko who was looking sharply at him.“It wouldn't have happened to him if we hadn't kept you here inside.” He said that Ramon just laughed as his two hands were tied b
“Sixto!” I just woke up to Zero's voice when he called me as he shook me on the shoulder. “Sixto, are you okay?” He added, but I didn't respond to him right away because I immediately looked around and realized that everything was just a dream. It was only then that I took a deep breath and calmed down because I was just dreaming.I looked at Zero with a trace of concern on his face, but he seemed to want to tell me something.“What's the problem?” I asked him. He bowed down and sighed first before he looked at me again.“Kiko,” he just said, and he didn't continue what he was saying. I got up and approached Kaiser and Simon where they were standing outside the bathroom. Then I was shocked when I saw Kiko in the bathroom bathed in his own blood and stabbed all over his body. I was about to approach him, but Kaiser grabbed my arm, so I was stunned and turned to him.“He is dead.” He said with a trace of sadness on his face. I looked at Simon, but he averted his eyes from me and turned
