CHAPTER 24: THE RESEARCH
After what we did, now it’s time to focus on our project. We need to research our subject and document it. We went to Luna’s house because we wanted to do it there. We want to ask Luna’s help with our subject. I know it would be easy for her because she is an expert in connecting to the dead. We brought our cellphones, laptop, pen, papers, and anything that would help us in our research.
“Yes?” She asked when she opened the gate.
“Oh the love birds,” She said and she was surprised to see us because she didn’t expect that we would come.
“Can you help us… again?” Devon asked but she just looked at us and “Please” Devon begged.

MORTEM CHAPTER 25: THE HOUSE
Our gorgeous friend Luna, let us borrow her car. Good thing that her car is orange and I don’t have a fear of riding in it. I didn’t know that Devon could drive. He cannot just drive me crazy but he can drive a car too and he will be more handsome because of that. We prepare the things that we need and I bring cash for the gas. I sat in the passenger’s seat. I buckle up and Devon does the same too. He turned on the engine and he turned on the radio too. The song matches us. A beautiful song by Stephen Speaks, “Passenger’s seat”. He started driving and he started singing too. It became more beautiful when he started singing it. I didn’t know that he had such an amazing voice. His voice is so relaxing when he sings. I close my eyes while facing the window when I suddenly remember Jayvee.
MORTEM CHAPTER 26: THE MEMORY
I told Devon everything that I saw when I was inside the cabinet. I know it might sound weird to him but I understand even me, I found it weird too but I saw what I saw. I also told him that the girl’s name is Cassandra and she is not dead but I am not yet sure about that, because I just saw someone take her away from the burning car and that’s it. That’s the end of my vision. Devon is silently listening to me while driving back home. He didn’t have any reaction to all that I said. I don’t know, maybe he is too focused on driving me, while I am facing the window while telling him everything about what I saw. I feel so tired and I feel so down right now like I have an emotional need after everything. I told Devon about the group of men who raped Cassandra, that their faces are familiar to me because I saw them clearly now, but he doesn't have any reaction about that too. Maybe because he is driving that is why it is not si
MORTEM CHAPTER 27: THE REVELATION
I went out of my father’s room to ask my mom about my whole life because I want to know the whole details of it. I want to hear it from her since I already know the truth. I put my notebook and the cutter inside my pocket because she doesn’t need to see it. I am ready to know everything now because for all my life I have been living a lie, and it is hard for me to believe in what I saw. I thought it was just my visions but it is my memory. MY LOST MEMORY.“Mom” I called even though I am not sure if I have a right to call her mom, because I know she is not my mother. She looked at me silently but I know deep inside she is asking “If I need something”“Mom” I called again while holding my tears, not to fall.“How did you fi
MORTEM CHAPTER 28: THE ORPHANAGE
I went to the Carmelian Nuns Orphanage because I want to know my life there. I want to know who brought me to them to complete the missing pieces of my life. My second mom and Devon don't know about it because they don’t need to know. Especially my mom; she is not part of my past and I don’t want to involve her. It is enough that she answered some of my questions and it is my obligation to figure them out. That is why I am standing at the Carmelian Nuns orphanage, where they adopted me.I took a deep breath and stared at the orphanage. This is it because I am now standing in front of it and in a moment I will know the missing pieces that I want to know, for me to connect it together that will make me complete. I searched for the nun who manages the orphanage and her name is Sister Carmelita Deus; she will be the one who I will look for because I know she knows something abou
MORTEM CHAPTER 29: THE BUS
I cannot erase in my head what the Mother Superior said about Jayvee. I am surprised to know that I have already met him since we were little and we have the same orphanage. Well I didn’t know that he was adopted too. Mother Superior is not going to lie to me that is why I believe in her. She also showed me a photo when we were little and yes, she is telling the truth because Jayvee showed his photos to me when he was young and it looks exactly the same in the photo that Mother Superior showed me. I regret knowing about it. I feel like if only I could turn back time I will never let him go but that is life. It is meant to happen because it was meant to happen.I rode in a bus and I sat near the window. I am going to my old house and I want to stay there for a moment. I want to recall everything that I missed because I really want to complete my life. This is my first time riding in a bu
MORTEM CHAPTER 30: THE INSANE
I stretched my arms and legs because of the two hours drive to Dasma from the Carmelian Nun Orphanage. That makes my legs and arms numb and I am now standing in front of my house. I feel so excited to get inside the house and there’s an unexplainable feeling that I felt inside. I feel like I want to scream because of the joy that I felt. Now that I am already here I will take only a few steps to get inside. I remember that I have a secret passage at the back. I made it when I was planning to run away because I can’t take what Kevin’s doing to me. I was about to go to the back of the house when I saw the “For sale '' sign of the house at the front gate. I didn’t notice it the first time I went here. That is why without looking around. I grabbed the sign and threw it away because our house is not for sale and it will never be for sale. Now that I am back the house will be back too. The memory of it will be back because I wi
MORTEM CHAPTER 31: THE NIGHTMARE
“Cassie” The voice is calling me.“Cassie” And it called me again. I stood up and yawned because of the voice. It is my father who is calling me. I know he wants to show me something. I scratch my eyes and stretch my arms and I am excited to go to him. He always does that. He loves to surprise me and the last time that he surprised me is when he made me a dollhouse out of the spare woods that we have in the backyard.I stood up and went downstairs. I know he is under the stairs behind the cabinet that is why I went there, but when I reached there. I saw Kevin; it is not dad but it is Kevin which I thought was my father. He pulled me and looked up to check that nobody saw him pulling me. I looked up too and looked at him. He told me not to make noise and at first I didn’t know what he wanted to do,
MORTEM CHAPTER 32: THE PLAN
I woke up to the noise outside. I heard a truck engine and the light that is facing exactly to my room. It hurts my eyes that were still adjusting to the brightness of the light from outside, then the engine turned-off but the light didn’t. I slowly stood up and looked outside the window to see who it was but unfortunately I couldn't see who exactly it was but I knew it was a man with an old style pickup truck. Most likely a vintage pickup truck that was used in a barn. I saw the man wearing a baseball cap that was covering his face, getting inside the house. I walk slowly behind the door and prepare myself. I don’t know who it is but I will never allow him to abuse me again. I heard the door knob turning and the door slowly opened. I know his inside now because I can hear his footsteps more clearly. I am still standing behind the door waiting for him to go upstairs because I know that he will go upstairs for me. I can feel him looking aro
