Shawn and I silently watched the boy in front of us as he put on his clothes, Shawn and I looked at each other then looked back at the boy who introduced us as Damon.
"Damon, you said earlier that Achaz is inside you, what do you mean by that?" Shawn asked, Damon, looked at us after getting dressed.We are still in their house, in the other room where Damon told us this is his room. He had just finished taking a bath earlier. We said we would take him with us if he would take a bath and fix himself."I'm sick." He said coldly as he looked at us. "Multiple Personality Disorder." He added so Shawn and I looked at each other, we didn't know what that meant."What's that?" I asked. We watched Damon go to his clothes, looking for something."Two human beings in one body." He said while looking for someone."Are you crazy?" Shawn asked so I immediately kicked him."Does he mean, mentally ill?" I asked, but he didn't say a word. He pulled out a key and then looked at us."If you want to change clothes, get a dress from my clothes, I'll just get something." He said coldly then walked out of his room. Shawn left us here, he looked at me then pinched me."Come on, let's go, that one is crazy." He said, frowning at me."What are you saying? He's not crazy, then you heard him call his illness, Multiple what is it, I'm sure he's in the right frame of mind." I said."But he admitted he killed his parent," Shawn said nervously."Achaz seems to be the killer," I said."But he said, Achaz is in him." He says."Because he's sick!" Irritated I said."It's up to you, I'm leaving, I don't want to die. I still steal a lot." He said and was about to leave Damon's room when he opened the door, Damon was already there, standing while holding a case.Shawn immediately ran towards me, we were swallowed because of Damon's aura, his stare at us was cold, he went inside and then put the case he was holding on his bed."Have you made a choice yet?" He asked, we didn't answer, Damon looked at us, shook it, and then opened the case he was carrying.We almost dropped our jaws when we saw the contents of the Case, it was full of money and some jewelry."Money," Shawn whispered so I looked at him. "Well, you stopped me." He whispered, I looked again in the direction of Damon who was looking at us."Is that yours?" I asked. He shook his head."For mom." He said then took a bunch of money and laid it out in front of me. "I'll pay for you to come with me here." He said so I stared at the money in front of me that he was holding. I would have refused it if Shawn had taken it from Damon and then smiled."You're welcome," Shawn said then looked at me, I widened his eyes but he didn't give up.He likes money."We can take you to our place and join us, Boss will be happy with you by chance," Shawn said while looking at Damon.I was just shaken inside, as long as the money was fast Shawn. It seems like a while ago he was so scared of Damon and wanted to leave, while now it seems like the two of them are friends."What's that money for?" I asked, Damon, looked at me."I'll use it to get rid of Achaz." He said so I frowned.I couldn’t understand what he was saying, as long as I knew he was sick and the money in front of us he would use to cure his illness.~~~A month passed after we saw Damon at the top of the tree, a month also passed when we took Damon to our place and introduced him to Boss.Boss immediately liked him because of the money he was carrying, but Damon didn't give it to Boss because he reasoned that he would use it to get rid of Achaz, something I still don't understand."Damon is gallant, just think about it, since we brought him here we always have a snack," Shawn said sitting next to me while Damon was sleeping in a room here in the apartment where we were staying that Damon himself took."Our lives got a little better when we saw him, it's really good that you stopped me when I wanted to leave," Shawn said so I was just shaken. Shawn looked at what I was doing then looked at me."What are you looking for on G****e?" He asked while looking at my cellphone that Damon gave me."Multiple Personality Disorder treatment." He wet and then looked at me."Isn't that Damon's pain?" He asked, I nodded in response.“He helped us, so we will also help him. "I said then read what came out on the site about the MPD."I don't know anything about that but go ahead, what did it say? What kind of medicine? I'll buy it at the pharmacy." He says."It says here, psychotherapy it seems," I said."Oh? Which pharmacy has that?" Shawn asked so I looked at him."Stupid isn't in its pharmacy," I said so he wrinkled his forehead."If it's not at the drugstore, where can I buy it?" He asked, I read that site again and even though I didn't know much about it, I tried to understand it.Until the night came, I couldn't even answer Shawn's question of where he could buy it.I took a deep breath and then watched YouTube, a few minutes passed and I was slowly nagegets things about psychotherapy."I already know where," I said so Shawn looked at me eating."Where?" He asked."We need a psychiatrist to perform psychotherapy," I said so he wrinkled his forehead."I only understood Psy." He said then stood up. "Where can I find that?" He asked."In--" I didn't finish what I was about to say as Shawn and I looked at the door of a room where Damon was now standing while looking at us."Damon, you're awake, let's eat." Shawn invited him but Damon just stared at us, it was a different look. Not cold, nor normal. It was a stare that obviously had something bad to do."Achaz is inside me."For some unknown reason, I suddenly remembered what Damon had told us when we first saw him and he would take us to their house."Hoy Damon, let's eat here," Shawn said so Damon looked at him."Who are you?" Damon suddenly asked causing us to stop."You haven't met him yet, so don't trust Achaz."I swallowed while looking at Damon, no, wrong. It’s not Damon we’re facing now, but Achaz.Shawn and I just stared at the person in front of us, He smiled at us which made me cringe because this was the first time we saw Damon smile at us, in a month when the three of us were together he hadn't smiled at us. Damon is, a reason for me to believe even more that he is not Damon but he is Achaz.I smiled at him and then took out the notebook and ballpen."Eat Achaz, will you come with us later?" I asked while not looking at him, I started writing in the notebook I took out, I heard Shawn muttering softly so I looked at him looking at Achaz."Shawn, serve Achaz food, my cousin shouldn't be hungry," I said so Shawn looked at me confused about what was happening, even though he didn't get what was happening and he was in a mess he just obeyed my command, I smiled then turned my gaze to Achaz who was looking at me."Sit here cousin," I said while looking at him."Cousin? Why did you say, cousin?" He asked then slowly approached in front of me."In case Achaz comes out, introduce you
I looked at Shawn peering into the large mirror that blocked between the room where we were watching and the room where Damon was inside with a Psychiatrist. From where we were standing we could hear the two talking.Damon was wearing a white gown, while two men were behind him."How old are you?" The female Psychiatrist asked him."12." Damon replied coldly, I handed Shawn the mineral water I was holding, he immediately accepted it and then looked at Damon again."How many years have you been experiencing the things you told me?" The woman asked Damon."Since I was 10 years old." Damon replied coldly, no emotion on his face. I crossed my arm and leaned back in the chair.Yesterday Damon and Shawn and I went to the house of the Psychiatrist in front of Damon today, Damon was determined to lose Achaz so even at dawn we did not leave the doctor."Do you remember anything when Achaz came out?" The doctor asked Damon."Sometimes there isn't, sometimes there is." Damon replied.After what h
Two months later, during those two months, Shawn and I went back and forth to the place where Damon was being treated. We visit him every day but we only talk to him often because within two months some of his alters started to show up.Ten alters showed up in two months. Damon and Achaz weren't there yet.Those ten, he has his names.They are James, Arthur, Jason, Michael, Diego, Jack, Jackson, Hewitt, Taniel, and Billy. They also have different personalities. Others know Achaz and Damon.James who is gay, Arthur who cries quickly, Jason who is a bully, Michael who is a playboy, Diego who is fast asleep, Jack who is a liar, Jackson who is hot-headed, Hewitt who loves reading a book, Taniel who is devout and Billy who is English speaking.Shawn and I faced them all, we talked to them all and we also asked them about Damon and Achaz, They all had the same answer about Damon, they all knew Damon but only Jason, Jackson and Jack knew -known to Achaz, those three say that Achaz is said to
A few months later, Christmas and New Year have passed but Achaz has not been treated or removed. Shawn and I are nervous because we can't talk to Damon anymore, the alter always comes out is Achaz and usually, the host, Chai, comes out.We can't approach Damon because he's not in that body, even Doc is afraid to approach Chai because it's so wild.We haven't talked to Damon for more than two weeks, the other alters aren't coming out either, only Achaz is coming out which is something we're worried about because Damon might be gone."Doc, can we still talk to Damon?" I asked, Doc smiled awkwardly and shrugged."I don't know, it's been a few weeks since he last came out. So are the other alters in Chai's body? I think the others are gone and Damon is with them. and " Doc said so we swallowed and looked in Chai's direction where he is sitting while stunned while there was a scary grin on his lips."Doc, how's that? Damon is our friend." Weakly Shawn said as I was disappointed at what Doc
Present time."Good morning." Erelah greeted me with a smile as I went down to the second floor of Damon's house, from behind her Achaz was looking at me who was also smiling and wearing an apron."Cousin, Let's go, you eat your breakfast," Achaz said smiling so I just nodded and walked towards the table where the food was ready. I was suddenly devastated as I remembered the last meal Achaz had served us before."Achaz and I cooked that," Erelah said smiling and spooned the soup they cooked. Achaz sat next to her so I looked away."Where is the one with you?" Achaz asked."Left early," I replied then smiled at Erelah when she finished putting soup in my bowl."Are you leaving too?" Achaz asked so I looked at him then looked at Erelah who was looking at me and waiting for me to answer."No," I replied then started eating."Ahh, then, Erelah and I are going out." I looked at him because of what he said. I caught another glimpse of Erelah who was also looking at her."Where are you going?
I happily pulled Achaz onto rides and then looked at him."Let's go on board?" I asked with a smile, his bad look remained on the people around us but I ignored it, I took a deep breath and then forced myself to calm down because I had been feeling afraid of Achaz before.He had been whispering before, something I didn't pay attention to because I didn't want to be afraid of him for a while. I am aware that he has Multiple Personality Disorder and Achaz is one of the Alters that Damon has.Even though I knew his condition, I still went with Achaz because that is what Gazer will tell me to follow what Achaz wants.I was about to pull Achaz to the ticket counter when he pulled me back so that I could look at him."Why?" I asked while looking at him, he just stared at me and then took a deep breath."Shall we ride there?" He asked a cold question that reminded me of Damon, I smiled then nodded. I knew Achaz was in Damon's body now, but all of a sudden Damon came to my mind because of Acha
Gazer POVSilently and firmly I followed Erelah from a distance, I looked at my watch then looked again in the direction of Erelah.Now, they are smiling and eating with Erelah. I looked at his companion who was also smiling while eating.At these times, I can’t pinpoint who’s using Damon’s body, but I’m sure Damon wasn’t there.Earlier I also saw how Erelah hugged him. I pressed the small button I was holding again, causing me to hear Erelah talking to me.I've heard them talk before, from the beginning until now. That’s because of the little mic I attached to Erelah’s dress.After I ate earlier, I left them on the chin to go to the room where Erelah's clothes are, I noticed that she was ready to wear so I immediately attached the small mic to her clothes and went to the bedroom where I slept. I inactive the mic via a device while I wait for them to leave.That's why I could hear them talking all over, earlier I wondered why Erelah called Damon's name, I also took the rides they rode
Erelah POVI swallowed as I looked at the person in front of me, holding the knife I don’t know where he got it he was looking at me while there was a horrible grin on his lips.What's happening? Why ... why did Damon stab a woman who did nothing to him, why ... why is he just like that when he looks at me? Why ... why does he look like that? He’s scary, he’s terrifying. He looks like a..."Erelah!" Damon's lifting of his knife in the air made me close my eyes and he was about to stab me, at the same time a familiar voice called my name. I don't want to die, I don't want to be lost in this world.A few minutes passed without feeling any pain in my body, I slowly opened my eyes and was even more stunned to see Damon's knife stuck in his shoulder, my knees suddenly trembled and grew bigger. my eyes as I see Damon's super cold eyes staring at me."Are you alright?" He asked coldly while holding the knife stuck in his shoulder, I didn't answer because I didn't know what to answer, I just f
"Erelah." I turned to the person who called me. Damon. He smiled at me beautifully while holding a small tray filled with medicines."Time to take medicine," Damon said to me so I smiled and nodded in agreement to what he said, he smiled and came to me then handed me a medicine capsule, I smiled and took it from him then he handed me a glass of water, again I took it at him while smiling and not taking off my eyes on him.I showed him how I take the medicine and even opened my mouth to prove that I had taken the medicine he gave me, I couldn't take my eyes off him, I felt like when I took my eyes off him he will be gone forever and it will be a long time before he returns.I don't want to miss him again so I don't even blink."Get some rest Erelah." He said so I immediately shook my head."I don't want to," I said quickly while looking at him."Erelah, you need to rest, go ahead and grow your eyebags." He said that's why I pouted causing him to laugh."I don't want to, you'll leave me
I took a deep breath while looking into the void, I didn't know what I should do, if I would listen to my wishes or if I would keep the promise I made.I can't quite figure out if I should be selfish or if I should pay for all my sins.I don't want to live in a world where there is a heavy sin. Even before I met her, I wanted to disappear.Even before she came into my life, I was always looking for a way to end my life without feeling pain.But when she came, my world changed. I remember what she said before. "If you have a problem, pray, killing yourself is not the solution to all your problems." That's what always sticks in my mind every time I try to commit suicide.One day I tried what she said, I prayed even though I didn't know how. I didn't even know how to do the sign of the cross so I just went straight to telling him what I wanted to say. I asked for forgiveness for the mistakes I made, and I asked for guidance on whether to correct my mistakes.On the day of her father's fun
"The paper of the first person found guilty of the murder of at least one hundred people and subjected to the death penalty this past week has been submitted to Malacañang. He is recognized as the first Filipino to be subjected to the death penalty after several years since the death penalty was repealed after the time of former president Ferdinand Marcos. The remains of the Serial Killer will be burned and placed in the north cemetery in Manila. While his lawyer is no longer answering the call to answer our questions. ."I turned off the television and then looked out the window of my room where I could see the children playing in the playground near where our house stands.I was stunned for a few minutes until I felt my tears flow again while not taking my eyes off the children playing.I slowly laughed while looking outside until my laughter turned into sobs that screamed at the pain I was feeling."Erelah." I slowly stopped crying and turned to the one who called me. Again I saw a
Erelah,How many more letters have I written to you? But no matter what I write and say on the papers I write, it is unlikely that you will read it because I know that what I write will not reach you nor will you know the things that I want to tell you.But I only want one thing to happen Erelah, that is for everything to be fine and to tell the truths that I have been hiding for a long time.Of all the lies I know, of all the lies I've done, there's only one thing I've never lied to, and that's to love you even when you're far away from me.Forgive me Erelah, forgive me.Damon.I don't know what is happening or why Damon rejected me, my heart is beating so fast, I can't rest. I feel like something bad is going to happen."Mr. Damon, you know for yourself what happened. As a friend, I want you to tell them the whole truth." The lawyer said. Damon looked at the lawyer, he took a deep breath then looked at me sadly before smiling and looking straight ahead again."I promised everyone her
Erelah.I'm not like other men who go out of their way to be with and respond to the women they love, but I'm one of those men who just looking at you from afar makes me very excited and my world is complete.People like you, and people like me were not blessed to be united and together for a long time, even if I wanted to be with you, there was nothing I could do. People like you are only for normal people like you. And someone like me deserves to disappear from this world. I am one of the people who longed to pass away and disappear from the surface of the world, but when you came, I became one of the people who lived a normal life in this world. But no matter how hard I try to cover up the real me, I know the truth will come out and come out, something I've been hoping for a long time to happen, to say all my mistakes in front of the majority and front of my young lady. SorryDamon.June 17, 2022The entire courtroom was silent as they looked at Damon sitting on the witness stand
Erelah.I have many things I want to tell you but I don't have the strength to do so. I know I hurt you with what I said before but my true feelings are the opposite of what I said.I love you Erelah, I saw you for the first time the day you stopped me from jumping off the bridge. I don't know what's going through your mind why you stopped me but thank you, thank you for doing that I saw you, an angel with an angel name.It was only in a few years that I felt a strange feeling, a feeling where my heart was beating fast, another thing that rejuvenated me.If I have one wish, it's to hug you again, Erelah.Damon,May 3, 2022I took a deep breath and then looked at the court building where the second hearing in Damon's case will be held again.Today, the second hearing in Damon's case will be held again, yesterday after the first hearing, Gazer accompanied me home.He calms me down during our flight, he knows how excited I am to see Damon and talk to him but there's nothing we can do bec
"Mr. Damon, I am Atty. Mielda, a lawyer and psychiatrist, I will handle your case." Damon only gave a cold stare as he looked at the person in front of him."I have papers with me here, papers that will help you clear your name. There are also some that I requested from the hospital where you used to stay." Said Atty. Mielda while taking out some papers in front of Damon."Damon, are there times when you talk to your alters?" Atty asked. Meilda to Damon, Damon didn't answer instead he took a deep breath and then looked away."When will I see Erelah again?" Damon asked Atty. Mielda."There is no certainty yet Damon, you are under restriction because of what happened in the past, if you will help me to solve your case I will make sure that you will see Erelah.""Did Erelah visit me again while I was asleep?" Damon asked the person in front of him, Atty shook his head. Meilda as the answer, Damon's aura became even colder. Damon faced the window, sadness in his eyes as he looked out."Er
Erelah POVAfter questioning me on the witness stand, they called Gazer to testify next in Damon's case. I don't know how long Damon's appointment has been, but earlier the Judge said that after Gazer spoke, we will return tomorrow for a second hearing on Damon's case.I looked at the way Damon was looking at Gazer, I swallowed hard and asked myself, did we get justice for my father's death? I don't want to think about things in the village right now because the only thing that matters to me right now is getting Damon out.I admit that I want to be with him, not as a friend but more as a friend. I have a lot of things I want to do with him, so what I'm focusing on now is getting Damon out as I promised him that I would get him out of the prison."Mr. Rodolfo, AKA Gazer, how well do you know Damon?" The other side's lawyer asked. The surroundings were quiet and the eyes of the people here were only focused on Gazer and the lawyer who was questioning him."Since our childhood," Gazer re
Erelah POVThe surroundings were quiet and I could feel the eyes of the people inside the court watching me go to the witness stand. My eyes caught Damon and his still cold aura. I took a deep breath when I stood on the witness stand and like the previous witness, the clerk approached me."Raise your right hand. Do you promise that the testimony you shall give in the case before this court shall be the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you, God?" It asked me."I do," I said without hesitation."Please state your first and last name." The clerk told me again."Hey Donovan," I answered, after that the clerk made me sit down, and then the lawyer of the other side came over. I swallowed first and looked for a moment at Damon's emotionless behavior while looking at me. I again focused my attention on the lawyer speaking."Ms. Erelah, what is your job?" It asked me."Cashier at a coffee shop." My answer."Based on the record given to me, you said you worked as Damon
