"So, how did your meeting go?"She turned to her glass window. The sun shone brighter today. She felt that was odd because she didn't get to sleep that night. Austin's face haunted her."It was alright.""You didn't enjoy it?" her therapist leaned back, trying to give her enough space to breath."I didn't. I talked to a skeleton in my closet that I've been avoiding for too long."The therapist raised an eyebrow, sensing the gravity of the situation. "A skeleton in your closet? Can you tell me more about it?"She took a deep breath, her gaze still fixed on the sunlit landscape outside. "Austin, the man I love. We had a conversation, and it wasn't easy. I couldn't escape the memories, the emotions that surged back. It felt like I was facing a version of myself that I've been trying to forget."The therapist nodded in understanding. "Confronting the past can be challenging, especially when it's tied to strong emotions. What aspects of the conversation made it difficult for you?""He want
She woke up and tiptoed from the room. Not too long ago, she noticed the peculiar lights from outside. Once in the kitchen, she reheated the coffee they left last night. She grabbed a mug, wrapped her body with the thickest coat she has and stepped out to her lawn with the cup of coffee. She walked towards the middle of her lawn and lift her head up, the Aurora Borealis has appeared right on top of her own lawn. In the clear night sky, they looked like swirling rivers of greenish-blue light with hues of red and yellow. This is the first time she's seen it. And quiet honestly, no words would ever compare to what she sees right now. No wonder people have always wanted to come here. The lights were believe to symbolize good luck, protection, and prosperity. She researched about it on her second week. She felt a different kind of overwhelming feeling. Then, she felt strong arms wrapped around her body. She didn't bother turning around and instead, leaned her head against his chest.
Sari stepped into the Philippine airport, her return marked by a mix of emotions. The familiar sights and sounds of her home country surrounded her, triggering memories of the life she left behind two years ago. As she navigated through the bustling terminal, she couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia and anticipation. The air was filled with a medley of languages, the hustle of travelers, and the distinct aroma of Filipino delicacies. It was a stark contrast to the various places she had explored during her global journey. The airport echoed with the voices of families reuniting, friends sharing laughter, and the occasional strains of a local song playing in the background. Sari's heart fluttered with a blend of excitement and apprehension as she thought about the people she had missed and the changes that might have occurred in her absence. She recalled the promise she made to Austin, the box he handed her before she embarked on her solo adventure. The small velvet box contai
"Ahhh." I could hear her moaning against the pillow she covered over her face. There I was, making her feel good, giving her the best that I can, bowing my head, kneeling in front of her, giving her my tongue's best moves. She has to be careful. She can't scream out loud, or else people will start listening. I kissed her supple legs and let my kiss travel back to her torso, letting my tongue linger through her skin, never caring if her juice is sticking on every trail I made. I stayed on her nipples, sucking it like there's no tomorrow. Her back arched as I sucked harder. She felt so delicious against my lips. I covered her mouth with my hands as soon as her moan elevated. She removed my hand and instead suck two of my fingers, tasting them like they were strawberry-flavored lollipops. It didn't hurt. Instead, it was overly sensual, suffocatingly effervescent. Satisfyingly delicious. I leveled with her and kissed her on the lips. "Are you ready?" I could see her eyes heatin
"Oi, pre, buti nalang nakapasa na tayo ng training period. Naku, ang hirap pala ng account na 'to. Hindi ko naman inisip na ganito pala kahirap maging call center agent. Akala ko pa naman easy-easy lang." That is Travis, a friend I met on the first day I've applied here. He's a college mate and honestly, we're not that close. Dito lang talaga kami nagkaroon ng pagkakataong magkakilala ng mabuti. "Judgemental ka kasi. Kaya 'yan ang napapala mo. Buti nga pumasa ka. Dami mo kayang absences." "Ay promise, magbabait na ako. Oh nga pala pre, sabi nila terror daw mga TL's dito. May isa dawng kilalang power tripper. Naku sana talaga hindi tayo mapag-tripan." "Eh baka kasama na talaga sa trabaho 'yun." "Ang alin? 'Yung mang trip ng tao?" "Eh ikaw din naman ah, ginagawa mo din naman yan sa iba. Ano'ng pinagkaiba?" "Sabagay." We continued waiting and then in a quick second, I noticed someone come in. She was wearing a blue hoodie that covered almost her entire face. She's not someone I
Remember your first day of going to school? Can you remember the fear you felt in stepping into the school grounds? You felt hesitant, unsure, with no confidence that you'd ever find any friends? But then you meet someone and your entire day has changed. It starts to become better. That was how I felt over the next few days. I was too eager to get to work. Too excited to be on the floor. The fear that I had the very first time I stepped onto the floor now turned into a different kind of confidence. A feeling of unmatched interest and willingness to just get out there and explore. I grew happy every time she would take over a call. Just hearing her voice was soothing to my senses. It was a severe obsession I have grown to have. We were on the chimney that lunch break, together with Jeremiah and her. "Well, can't say No anymore right?" "Of course, you can't." They were both talking something about the business. I grow jealous sometimes when I don't get to talk to her on th
How often do you play a game? Do you play to feel like a kid again? Or do you play because you just got sucked too much into adulthood and you'd just like to have fun?Bakit nga ba tayo tumitigil sa paglalaro? Is it because we've grown up and have to face the harsh realities of life?The better question though, is when do we begin playing again?"Never have I ever kissed an officemate." sigaw ni Melai.Medyo tipsy na ito at halos magkabulol-bulol na. She drank her own shot with her never have I ever dare.The game was simple.You go around everybody stating a fact, or a dare, or a funny experience. Kung nasubukan mo na, you have to take a drink. Pag hindi pa, don't drink and you have the choice to ask questions to expound the whole conversation.Lahat sila halos ay uminom except for Travis and me.I turned to Sari who was also slowly taking her drink.Pang ilang bote na niya iyon, pero tila hindi ito nalalasing."Oh, we have a few virgins here then." it was Tracy."Naku, eh fresh grad
Have you ever had an embarrassing moment? How did you recover from it? What did you do to relieve the shame?It's Monday. And my entire weekend was an endless sleepless night.We never get the chance to continue the make-out session we've had.As it turns out, Melai got so drunk that we had no choice but to all go home.Iba na kasi nung siya na ang nalasing. She was lashing out on everyone she sees and started cursing.Stacy and Sari had to take her home.So, I was caught in my own frustrated and horny self.So that Monday, alas siyete pa lang ay nasa training room na ako. Feeling giddy and excited about seeing her again.I opened a PC and keyed in my username and password. I opened a knowledge base portal and decided to take some reading habang nagpapalipas ng oras.After about thirty minutes, people started coming in.Bawat isa ay agad na nagkukumpulan kasama ang mga usual na kausap nila.Maya-maya lang ay nagmamaktol na Travis ang bumungad sa akin sa oras na naupo ito sa tabi ko."
