Chapter 140: Two Groups
TRAVIS
“Wait, who. . .Who is that?” I stuttered as I looked down to a dead body floating like an empty plastic bottle on the surface of the ocean. There were blood that was seemingly mixing with the salt water, but when I had gotten to look closer to it, I realized that it did not mix well. It was as if a petroleum trying to bond with the water when obviously, it can not. My heart suddenly began skipping rapidly. It thumped so hard against the rib cage and against my chest. I could feel it, I could feel how its strength tried to overpower my own strength. And considering my body’s situation as of the moment, knowing I was completely dazed and confused due to the hangover I got from over drinking alcohol last night, I could easily say that I was completely defeated. With my eyes as blur as a broken lens, I tried my best to recognize who’s body was it in front of us. After a few more moments, finally, I was

PHILIP When our class president Cylvia entrusted to me and to Vhynz the responsibility of checking up on Travis, there was only one thing that I was so sure in my mind. We need not to fail this. Since we all woke up to the deafening screams and shouts of Yuri, our class mate who found the dead body of our friend Janvic floating on the surface of the water near the shore, the only person that came into my mind that needed protection was no other than Travis itself. Everything happened so abrupt and swift, that we did not even had at least a chance of asking or questioning Yuri what happened, and how the hell did she knew that Travis was there. But any time from now, as I and Vhynz continued our walk back to the spot where the tents were planted--where somewhere around it was Travis fallen in a deep dysfunctional sleep, I was pretty sure that Chuck and the rest of the girls there must have had started throwing questions to Yuri a
The Photo Collector Chapter 142: In Another Life
ANDREI Travis grouped us all into two, where each and every group had its own task to perform, all of which were very vital to the progress of our movement. The first group were merely composed of Geodie, Samantha, Cylvia, Yuri, Philip, and me. Based on the instructions of our acting leader who was Travis, we are going to be the group that will send Janvic to the nearest hospital and at the same time call the cops and bring them back here. Meanwhile, the other group which was composed of only Travis, Chuck, and Rabiya, they will be the ones that will remain here to check and investigate the place. When I asked Travis if the job was not too big for only the three of them to handle, he answered me firmly and confidently, ‘the lesser we are here, the easier the job will be.’ Well, that only made a lot of sense because it would be harder if there will be more people to stay here. The more the people will stay, the more

The Photo Collector Chapter 144: Yet Another Perfect Crime
CHUCKIt did not took us that long to finally accept the fact that now, starting from this moment, there will only be the three of us left here. I did not know how would I begin to internalize us, but every single time I would think about the isolation i give to our own selves, the first few things that wold cross my minds were death, conflicts, and again, another crime. Right now, just simply thinking about how big this place was for only the three of us who were left inside the beach resort, I was already defeated by the fact that we were completely overwhelmed. I did not know what was circling inside Travis’ mind at this exact moment, but there was only one thing I was sure: Whatever it was, it must be very, very complicated. I walked my feet away from the garage after the black truck Philip used to drive Janvic exited a couple of minutes ago. If not because of the wind which slapped me a cool hand on my face, never wou

The Photo Collector Chapter 146: Breakfast Us Three
CHUCK After five minutes at most, Rabiya got out of the kitchen room with a serving platter and three cups of coffee. Just by the aroma of it, and just by seeing how the steam evaporated in the air sending thin clouds of visible smoke towards us, as if a hand trying to seduce us to drink it right away, I could already determine that the freshly brewed coffee were so satisfying. I jumped out of the sofa where I decided to sit for three minutes, and fetched Rabiya from the isle to get the cup she prepared for me. I determined it right away which cup was mine, because I was the only one who ordered my coffee to be black and pure. No sure, no creamer, no anything at all. “You better be sure this taste great,” I threatened Rabiya in a jokingly manner. She just gave me a good smirk, as if she was utterly confident that her brewed coffee would meet the standards of my peculiar taste buds. I then picked up another cup, the
The Photo Collector Chapter 147: All Are Shitty
RABIYA The amount of boxes for Travis to unpack was so overwhelming, just as overwhelming as the number of drawers I had check to make sure that not a single clue will be left unseen. Ever since we started doing what we were opt to do, we had not yet seen an evidence. Not one. Not even a little, slight, or discreet one. At this point of our semi investigation, I was now starting to think that what if there were really no clues hidden inside the cottage? What if we were just used to know that this was the usual routine every time there was a crime happening that it brought us to conclude that the same protocol should be implemented? I rested my face from frowning because of the unpleasant smell coming from the utensils that were long kept inside the drawers-- only God knew how long had they been there inside their cases. I moved three steps away from the kitchen cabinet, and then clapped the dusts off my hands. I then washed the
The Photo Collector Chapter 148: Suspects
TRAVISWhen we heard the sirens wailed from afar, we already suspected that it was them already; Philip with the rest of our friends, and then the police car. Hearing them made us skip each of our things that we were doing and ran out of the cottage to meet them half way. There were some signs of relief in my heart, but at the same time I could not deny the fact that there were also nerves of nervousness trying to ruin the day. Obviously, none of us three who were left here in the cottage was the killer, and there supposedly have no reason for us to be feeling guilty. But why are we feeling the complete opposite? Why, while running going outside, are we feeling as if we wanted to hide something only to make sure that we could prove ourselves innocent? And lastly, why did I feel like here would go another round of spitting lies again, only to assure that this time, I, or neither of Rabiya and Chuck, would not be accused a killer?
