Verse for today:
Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep.
—Romans 12:15Chapter 13"...introduce yourselves," I heard our teacher— Miss Aya spoke.
Napatingin sa akin lahat nang tapunan ako ng guro ng tingin. I am in the first seat that's why I am sure I'd be the one to introduce myself. Ngumiti ako at tumayo. I was homeschooled before senior high so I'm not good at socializing in class but I can try my best.
"Okay, Miss..." Tumingin siya sa identification card ko. "...Serene. Can you please come here and introduce yourself?"
I nodded and smiled. Naglakad ako papunta sa gitna bago nagsalita.
"Hi, good afternoon. I am Serene," and I pointed my my ID. "I am 19, my pronouns are she or her. I am a Roman Catholic who serves Jesus Christ through a youth organization called WABOC. I don't have any talents but rest assured po that I will cooperate with you guys. Thank you."
Miss Aya nods he

Verse for today:He that spared not His own Son, but delivered Him up, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?—Romans 8:32Chapter 14"So you are westernized, huh?" Nanliit ang mga mata ng aking ina.Napabalik ang tingin ko kay Isaiah. I'm not shocked, though. He almost looks foreign. His eyes are blue and his complexion is white. Masungit ang mukha niya. He always looks sleepy. He once told me that his hair was originally blonde but he's just applying bleach regularly to cover it with black. He suddenly reminds me of Aslan Jade from Banana Fish.Tumango siya at sumagot sa aking ina."Yes..."I traveled my eyes around. I am really shocked Mom's not in her work. Minsan ko lang siyang nakikita sa loob ng mansyon at parang... hindi ako sanay. While on the other hand, my father—which is more absent in the mansion more than Mom—is not here as usual."Does your parents have business?"

Verse for today:Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.—Ecclesiastes 7:9Chapter 15Travis Isaiah Zastendere | 17 years old$1,000,000 (printed in USA)I felt like the whole world collapsed on my back as I read the words written on the paper. Isaiah's currently 19 and he's turning 20 next month, meaning that it has only been three years since he had this wanted poster. Naghanap pa ako ng ilang detalye roon pero wala na akong makita pang iba kun'di ang pangalan at detalye tungkol sa kanya.His hair on the poster was blonde and is smoothly covering the sides of his forehead. Masyadong masama ang tingin niya sa litrato. There is a glimmering emerald earring on his left ear. He looks more decent on the picture but the undesirable expression written on his face was too overwhelming.Ibinalik ko iyon sa kaninang pinaglalagyan. I left Ate Kei's room with a grudge in mind. Nagmamadali akong

Verse for today:And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.—1 Corinthians 13:13Chapter 16"Anong team ka?"I moved my head towards the girl's direction. She was smiling from ear to ear while holding a handmade banner. She is also wearing a bandana and jersey representing the other team.I shook my head. "I don't know po. Both of the team are good at it."We are inside the court and everyone is screaming in unison in every point their team gets. They are also happily cheering them; I can't counteract because even me is anticipated as well. This is my—I think—fourth or fifth time watching a basketball competition in our campus."But the blue team seems winning. They have been scoring a lot," dagdag ko.Sumimangot ang babae. "You mean, team ni Reion? That's ridiculous, ang red team ang chini-cheer ko. Palibhasa'y bangko ang kambal kong iyon kaya nananalo ang

Hindi na kami masyadong nagkikita gaya dati dahil na rin sa pagkaabala ko sa pag-aaral. Our second semester made me cut ties with my free time. I am always busy, feeding my eyes with the light of my laptop screen full of presentations, long essays and poems or literature-related works, outlines for thesis defense, at marami pang iba.But I think it is also convenience for me. I am not yet ready to respond to his recent words for me. He is not forcing me say anything right af

Verse for today: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. — Hebrews 11:1 Chapter 1 There are 7 billion people in the world. Maraming nagsasabi sa akin na sa pitong bilyon na iyon, makahahanap ako ng lalaki na mamahalin ako. A man whom I can beat my heart for. Pero bilang parte ng pamilyang Kristiyano, mayroon akong tanging lalaki na minamahal ko. Iyon ay ang Diyos Ama at si Hesu-Kristo. Romans 5:8 says, 'But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us'. That's how God loves us, that he gave up Christ to save us from all of our sins. And f

Verse for today: If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. — James 1:5 Chapter 2 "Pupuntahan ko muna sa site ang boyfriend ko, sister Serene. Gumala ka muna rito at bumili ng kahit ano." Inabutan ako ni Castellina ng limang daang piso. "Site? Ano po bang trabaho ng boyfriend mo?" nagtataka kong tanong. Ngumiti siya. "Construction worker. Sige na, aalis na ako. Malaki ka na naman, sister Serene. Hindi ka naman siguro mawawala rito. Mwa!" Nagmamadali siyang naglakad paalis. Luminga-linga ako na parang nawawala. I don't know where to go. Wala naman akong alam na bibilhin. And I don't go out without a friend. I decided to distribute biblical booklets instead. I have ten copies of this inside my tote bag. Mabuti na lang at nagdala ako, this save me! "Booklet po..." and I handed it to a woman in my age. She stared at th

Verse for today: Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. — Romans 12:9 Chapter 3 "Paano ko makukuha kung ang layo mo?" He was smirking while waiting for me to step closer. I took two small steps and gave him the ID. I was waiting for him to thank me but he didn't. Bumuntonghininga ako at nagsalita. "Sige po, babalik na ako sa loob. May bible study pa kami." "Wait!" he took a hold on my shoulders. Mabilis akong napalayo doon. I become uncomfortable when someone, especially strangers would touch me. "You won't even ask how I got here? O kahit bakit hindi ako nagpasalamat sa'yo?" he asks, raising the side of his lips. Tumikhim ako. "Sorry po, male-late na talaga ako sa bible study namin." Nanatili akong nakayuko. It's not really required to put too much gap with men in our religion but I couldn't help it, always.

Verse for today: A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. — Proverbs 15:1 Chapter 4 Autograph? Why is he asking for an autograph? I decided not to reply. I was hesitant but I chose to stalk his account on 𝚒𝚗𝚜𝚝𝚊𝚐𝚛𝚊𝚖. Ang sabi sa akin ni Savy, kapag nag-s-stalk ka sa isang tao ay magmumukha kang kriminal. But I'm not doing something illegal, right? I tapped his icon. Bumungad sa akin ang profiles niya na mayroong 700 plus followers. I read his bio. You're the bottle of my Margarita. The key of my motorcycle. The ace of my playing cards. The intensity of my stares. And the love of my I love you's. Naningkit ang mga mata ko. I easily comprehend his bio. King Solomon also has sweet and capturing words that's why I'm not new to this. I scrolled on his timeline to view the photos. My forehead creases with the photos. Mayroon doong litrato na may hawak siy
