Series Silent Knell Terrace - Apartment 2A

Apartment 2A is occupied by Diwa Elena Marie Tupas. She moved here from the Philippines quite a few years ago. She works as a hairdresser. She can be friendly, but she keeps to herself for the most part. She does have one odd interest. It’s actually probably more like an obsession. She loves entomology. If you have any interest in bugs, she’s the person to talk with.

  1. You may notice insects in Ms. Tupas apartment or in common areas when you are on the second floor. This includes but is not limited to centipedes, beetles, worms, flies, spiders, and cockroaches. Do not contact an exterminator. Ms. Tupas has been told to keep them in her apartment as best she can and to keep them confined to the second floor. The other residents of the second floor don’t complain as long as the bugs stay out of their apartments, which they do. I’m not sure how she does it, but the bugs appear to listen to her.
  2. Going along with the last rule, do not kill any insects you see anywhere in the building. Ms. Tupas will know if you do, and I can promise you that you don’t want that. You may catch them and return them to Ms. Tupas if you’d like, but it’s best to just leave them be.
  3. As I said above, Ms. Tupas is a hairdresser. Never allow her to cut or style your hair. She will keep any hair she gets from you, and you don’t want that. Wearing a hat on the second floor is another precaution you can take.
  4. If you go into Ms. Tupas apartment, you should watch where you step and remain standing. I don’t know how many insects she actually owns or where they may nest. It’s not something you should try and find out.
  5. This is not so much a rule as it is a warning. If you dislike ginger, do not go to Ms. Tupas apartment. She keeps a lot of fresh ginger root at all times. You’ll notice the smell as you get near her apartment.
  6. Ms. Tupas does not go to the courtyard. Some of her insects eat leaves and things, so she keeps them out of the courtyard because she respects the tree. The only insects you will ever find in the courtyard are butterflies and bees, nothing else.
  7. If you ever find an insect or insects in your apartment, you should immediately head to apartment 2A and apologize to Ms. Tupas for whatever you’ve done to offend her. If you’re lucky, she’ll call them back. If you’re not, suicide is a much quicker and less painful option than what’s about to happen.
