Keifer POV: 🖤
Aries looked at me with a serious expression and glanced at the wall clock.
Aries: “It’s late, Keifer.
You should leave now.” ⌚
“But…” I tried to reason,but aries cut me off mid sentence.
Aries: KEIFER , please!
Just till tomorrow morning!🥺
I didn’t say anything more and just nodded, heading out toward my car.
🚗
(What did he mean by ‘Jay’s condition’?
What is going on with her that everyone is hiding?) 🧠💭❓
I went home, but my mind kept racing with unanswered questions.
I finally fell asleep, still thinking about her.
🛌💤
Aries’s pov :
The moment Keifer’s car engine faded into the quiet night street, the heavy silence inside the living room felt like a ticking time bomb.
🏠💥
Kuya Angelo stood in the center of the room, his arms crossed tightly against his chest, his jaw clenched, and his dark eyes burning with pure rage.
👿🔥
“Keifer is gone now, Aries,” Angelo said, his voice dropping to a dangerously low growl.
“Talk.
Why was Jay at Percy’s condo?
And what the hell were you talking about when you mentioned her ‘condition’?!” He continued.🤬💥
I ran a trembling hand through my hair, letting out a exhausted sigh as I sat down on the couch.
“Angelo…
Jay has been having severe, terrifying panic attacks since yesterday morning,” I confessed softly, keeping my head low.
“And the scariest part is…
it only happens when she steps foot inside this house.” 😨💔
Angelo’s eyes widened in utter disbelief, his protective instincts instantly flaring up.
“WHAT?!
A panic attack inside her own home?!
Why didn’t you tell me immediately?!” 💥
Because Jay begged me not to!” I explained desperately.
“She knew you would immediately take her back to the doctor.
She was terrified, kuya Angelo!
She doesn’t even know why these panic attacks are happening!” 🥺💔
Angelo closed his eyes and took a heavy, shaky breath.
“So you took her to Percy’s place…” 🏢
”Yes.
We decided to take her to percy’s house and let her rest .Kuya ,She hasn’t had a single panic attack there,” I replied.
“She will be back home right after school tomorrow, I promise.” 🏠✨
Angelo closed his eyes, let out a heavy sigh, and finally nodded.
After Kuya left, I called jay.
She asked,” what happened?
Is everything okay there ?what did..”
She was showering me with her questions.
But I cut her off ,” jay !
KEIFER knows that you weren’t at home since yesterday morning.
I ,somehow, managed to hold him for now.But Come to school tomorrow,jay !
He won’t wait after that”
Jay agreed to come to school tomorrow and hung up.
( Will jay be okay tomorrow to tell everyone the truth?)
Angelo POV: 💼
(I wouldn’t have known a single thing about Jay if Keifer hadn’t brought it up today!
I didn’t even knew that she wasn’t at home since yesterday morning!) 🤬
After keifer left ,I asked aries to explain everything.
(I need to know what happened?
Why is jay at percy’s condo?)
Aries explained everything.
After that, I had no choice but to wait until tomorrow.
So I nodded and left.
🚶♂️💨
Keifer POV: 🖤
Next Morning — 5:30 AM ☀️
I couldn’t sleep properly the entire night.
Every time I closed my eyes, Aries’ trembling voice echoed in my head—Jay’s condition…
Is he referring to panic attacks…
🧠💭
I got dressed in my uniform, grabbed my car keys, and drove straight to school.
I was the first one to step into Section E’s empty classroom, sitting alone in the silence, tapping my desk anxiously.
⏳
By 7:00 AM, Section E started trickling in.
Ci-N, Felix, Edrix, and Rory rushed up to my desk, their faces pale with concern.
🎒👥
“Keifer!
Did you find Jay yesterday?!” Ci-N asked frantically, shaking my shoulder.🥺
“She’s coming today,” I replied coldly, keeping my eyes glued to the main courtyard entrance.
🚪
(Just let her be okay…
please, just let me see her face today.) 🧠🙏
Suddenly, Percy’s car pulled up outside.
Jay stepped out.
🌸
She looked pale, her hands trembling as she held her bag.
🥺🤍 After two days ….
Two long days , finally I was seeing her .
But Seeing her so frail , pale and trembling broke my heart.
🫀💥
Everyone POV (Section E): 🎒👥
“JAY-JAY IS HERE!!” Ci-N yelled at the top of his lungs, practically jumping over desks.
🎉
The entire Section E erupted into loud cheers and sprinted out of the classroom like a stampede, rushing down the hallway toward the courtyard to swamp her with hugs.
🏃♂️💨
Ci-N asked her ,”Jay!
Where were you?!
I missed you so much !
You didn’t even replied to my messages.” 😭
Everyone continued asking her,
“We were so worried about you!” 🥺
“Why was your phone turned off?!” 📱💥
“Where were you ,jay?
Why weren’t you replying?”
We were asking her questions about her whereabouts.
Why was she not talking to anyone of us ?we were so worried about her when we learned that she wasn’t at her home since the morning of the day before yesterday.
Stop…!
please…
back off…” She gasped weakly.
We didn’t understand what she meant by this .
We were just worried about her too much .
We didn’t back off .
We still needed answers.
Percy: (reaching out his hand) “Guys, stop!
Don’t push!” 🛑
But as usual, Section E didn’t listen to a single word.
We charged forward like a wild mob.
🏃♂️💨
But suddenly ,she collapsed !😱💥
“JAY!!” We all screamed in absolute terror as she hit the cold floor.
😱💥
Panic erupted in the courtyard.
Ci-N dropped to his knees, his hands shaking uncontrollably as he tried to touch her shoulder.
”J..Jay…Jay!
Wake up!
Please..please don’t do this!” Ci-N sobbed.
😭💧
”What happened to her?!” Felix yelled, looking around frantically.
“Call an ambulance!
Someone call Sir Alvin ,please!” 🚑💨
None of us understood what was happening.
We were just so relieved to see her again after two terrifying days.
We didn’t mean to overwhelm her.
We didn’t know that our crowd was suffocating her.
What exactly happened to her?
Why did she collapsed?😭💔
