Basilio was sitting on the couch, reading his course's assignment for this semester. the scholar sighed and started to get up and walk towards his study table to start answering some projects. he has been weary all day— from the course's activites, lessons, and projects, and of course dont forget Simoun pestering him to be recruited on the revolutionary. he's alone right now, inside his shared dorm with his best friend, Isagani, was no where to be seen because he was busy burying himself in nature and writing poems. Basilio shook his head, trying to get some thoughts off from inisde his mind and getting the assignment done

The innocent boy got startled by the sound of sudden rustling outside. he instantly got reminded of a trauma from his childhood, so he quickly hid himself somewhere safe, like the space behind the bookshelf he intendedly made months ago.

"w-who's there?!" he shouted, and then regretted his actions. he tried to shove himself even deeper in the tight space, trying to hide away from the world of this suffering(and trying not to get a panic attack too).

Just then— a tall and dark figure shuffled in from the window. it seemed like a threat, he quickly tries to hold back the tears that were streaming down from his face. and little does he know that is was you, who left 4 months ago and left not even a single trace. you were running away from the problems that happened during those times. he though about you. his kuya/ate, whom he assumed was dead. he missed you.

the events after this is up to you.
