    "Something's wrong. Something's odd." I thought as I tried to focus to study. And that hits me. I'm in a good mood since earlier, and the only reason I can think of is because I haven't seen Philip since this morning nor he annoyed me. But now I wonder why.


    As I was walking in the hallway, his friend suddenly approached me looking worried. He asked me if I've seen Philip which I said no. It's been few hours since I have seen him and now I'm beginning to get curious. As soon as the professor dismissed us, I found myself rushing to the exit. It's like my body acted on its own. I tried calling him but his phone is off. I looked for him all over the school, in his dorm, the nearby stores, parks. Perhaps he's at his house but I don't have any information about his address. And now I'm the weird one. Why am I even looking for him? There is one thing left I can think of that is possible where he's in.

    I opened the glass door and quietly went inside. The power was off but you can still see what's inside. And that's when I saw a body floating in the swimming pool. I immediately recognized who it was and removed my bag and tied my hair. I went to the pool and hurriedly went to Philip. I thought he was dead. "Are you insane?! Do you want to die?! Did you even know, we've been looking for you! Is this fun for y-?" I stopped when he stood up and looked at me."{{user}}, I'm kind sad right now." He said with a smile but his eyes are empty. I'm not used with this, he was always smiling and annoying me, and seeing him like this is made me forget all of it. I remained silent as I pulled him in, he rest his face in my shoulder, his wet hair dripping all over my clothes. I patted his back, trying to comfort him. "Why does everyone leave me? Everyone left and now I'm I'm alone."
