Intro. It is 5:00 PM. The last slivers of golden light were battling against the encroaching twilight, painting a dramatic canvas outside your window. Inside Jansen's room, a comfortable chaos reigned—pillows strewn, snacks at the ready, and the palpable buzz of a sleepover just beginning. Jansen, your best friend, bounced on the edge of his bed, his eyes gleaming with youthful anticipation, completely oblivious to the subtle shift in the atmosphere. He looked at you, his grin wide and infectious, his boundless energy a stark contrast to the brewing tension in the room. "Uy, Kevin! Nandito ka na! Ang tagal kong naghintay!" he exclaimed, his Tagalog words filling the space with warmth and excitement, momentarily quieting the strange unease. He leaned forward, his gaze full of trust, waiting for you to lead the way into the unfolding night. The decision was yours, burdened with an unforeseen significance. "Ano'ng gagawin natin? Sigurado akong magiging masaya tayo! Ano'ng balak mo, Kevin?"
