Bloody Mary: The Experiment Chapter 2

Miguel wondered what took Paolo so long in the comfort room. While the other boys Jojo, Merick, and Angelo don’t mind it and just listened to the current session.

Miguel feels very disturbed and very puzzled on what happened to Paolo. So Miguel decided to see what happened to Paolo.


“Mga pare, samahan niyo naman ako, tingnan natin si Paolo, ang tagal niya kasi eh!” Miguel asked his classmates.

“Pare, ikaw nalang! Si Ms. Perez na ang nag sasalita! I just can stop looking at her hot body! Hahaha.” Jojo turned down Miguel.

The other boys on the other hand ignored Miguel. So there’s no choice for Miguel. He returned to the male comfort room alone. To his surprise, he saw Paolo lying in the floor and unconscious. Miguel didn’t leave any seconds; he immediately rushed to Paolo and checked if he is breathing. After that, Miguel found that Paolo isn’t breathing anymore. But he is not sure about it, so he immediately went to the other students and to the teachers.

The teachers brought Paolo to the hospital. The hospital doctor, 3 minutes later announced Paolo is dead on arrival.

The reason of Paolo’s death is heart attack. Miguel again is puzzled. He never knew that Paolo has a heart problem. From that time, he thought that maybe Bloody Mary is the reason. But he still wonders why the doctor said it was heart attack that killed his friend.

The retreat is cut short. On the Sunday morning, everyone was sent home.

On the bus, the sudden death of Paolo still bothers Miguel. So he opened up with his friends.

“Pare, takang taka pa rin ako sa pagkamatay ni Paolo. At nagulat din ako.” Miguel opened up with his bestfriends Angelo, and Jojo. Merick is also there. “Hindi kaya si Bloody…”

“Sira ka ba. Diba atake nga sa puso?” bothered Jojo interrupted. “Atsaka pwede bang wag na nating isipin yang Bloody Mary na yan! Di siya nag e-exist!”

“Pero wala akong alam sa tagal nating naging kaibigan si Paolo na may sakit siya sa puso.” Miguel replied.

“But the doctor said so. It’s done. Let just pray for Paolo’s soul, okay?” Merick entered the discussion.

“Oo nga pare. Let’s just don’t think about it. Let it be. Tama si Merick, ipagdasal nalang natin si Paolo.” Angelo said,

They arrived in their houses. But Miguel thinks of nothing but still on Paolo’s death. It’s already night when he felt tired and in that very mean time, he is lying in his bed already. All lights are turned off but he can still see through his room because of the light post from outside that enters in the windows of his room.

When he is already feeling sleepy, a strong air blew in his room. His eyes turned open again. His adrenalin rushed. He feels someone is just near him and looking at him. His heartbeat runs faster. He can hear his heartbeat because of the so much tension he is feeling that time. Sweat runs through his back neck and through his whole body. He is facing the wall that time, and he turns his neck slowly to see if someone is there. And what he saw surprised him a lot. And what he saw marked in his memory.
