A new day has dawned, and Angelo, instead of feeling energized, feels like the world is spinning in front of him. He wanted to curse out loud since he would not be feeling like a drunk- having a hangover first thing in the morning- if it were not for Mark’s constant bombardment of messages- on his phone. Although he was so sleepy last night, Angelo hadn’t had a; choice but to reply to Mark’s message else Mark would explode his phone’s inbox.
Angelo went out of his room looking like a zombie- that if his younger brother would see Angelo right now- Angelus would positively punch Angelo until he would pass out. Fortunately for him, Angelus still hadn’t woken up.
Slowly making his way to the kitchen, Angelo opened the fridge to grab a bottled water. His hands were shaking as he took the bottled water- that it took him a few tries before he could entirely hold the; water bottle. Angelo was trying to open the lid- of the water bottle when his younger suddenly spoke behind
Ciel Cafe is a two-story building located at the center of the city. With its modern futuristic design, this cafe was certainly a go-to place for those who love taking pictures. It was also a perfect place for people who wants- to break free from the clamor of the world. The first floor was a place reserved for the customers, while the second floor was; catered solely for their V.I.P customers. The pleasant sound of chime was; heard the moment Angelo opened the door of; the cafe. As soon as he was inside, Angelo looked for a two-seater seat- so that he and Cassandra could have a private conversation with each other later. Finding a suitable seat, Angelo trudged his way- to its location and promptly sat- on the chair as soon as he had; arrived in front of; the table. When he had finally seated comfortably, Angelo ordered his favorite milkshake. While waiting for his order to arrive, Angelo texted Cassandra- informing her that he had alre
While walking back home, Angelo was holding back the tears that- was about to fall from his eyes, sniffling and silently sobbing. It also felt that the world was secretly grieving with him since rain showers started to fall from the bright and sunny weather. As soon as; it started- to drizzle, people began to either grab an umbrella from their bags or proceed to the nearest shop- to take shelter from the rain shower. While the people- are busy running from different directions- one person was walking normally, not minding the sprinkle of water hitting his shoulder. His eyes look so lifeless that anyone who could see it- would certainly, grow concerned. People who passed by Angelo would look back at him and give him a look full of worry. But Angelo didn’t mind all the stares that- the strangers had been giving him. It was almost dark when Angelo arrived safely at the comforts of his house. He was; drenched so much that Angelo looks, like a wet c
From that day forth, Angelo’s behavior had turned a 360-degree change. From being a person who is serious with his studies, he became a person who is so carefree about it. So calm- that he began to skip classes and join the company of questionable people. Angelo also learned to do some vices; drinking, smoking, womanizing, and anything that was; negatively perceived by society- he did them all. Angelo began- to not care about what other people would see him as, whether they would give him a scornful, condemning, or insulting look- in front of his face; Angelo was unconcerned. They can even throw nasty words at him, and he wouldn’t care since Angelo’s heart had turned cold. It had become frozen and surrounded by layers of frost- the moment Cassandra had broken up with him- Angelo’s heart had become callous. No matter how his parents would try to talk to him, it would not reach into Angelo’s ears. He continued being careless with his life
Throughout the day, Angelo was in euphoria. He had a normal conversation with his parents, and the once empty; and silent dining room was; filled with; melodious laughter. It made; Angelo’s parents wish that- the change- in the behavior of; their eldest son would become; permanent. But it was only their wishful thinking, since when the clock had struck at twelve in the midnight; just like Cinderella, Angelo reverted from his original state. The memories that- were suppressed by the pill had all at once been; unleashed in an extraordinary; wave. Angelo was clutching his head hard. He felt as if his skull was; being sliced in half due to the excruciating agony; he’s- subjected; to. He was trying his best not to create a sound even if he is; in intense pain since he; doesn’t want to alert his parents and make them worry about his condition. Thrashing in his bed, Angelo- with great difficulty, tried to grab the pills that were peacefully resting- on his bedside t
With the passing of days, Angelo became dependent- on the pill- that was; given to him- enough to make the pill called Gleyma his lifeline. The once healthy physique of Angelo had become scrawny that his parents- who thought they could finally sigh in relief because of the positive change in their son’s behavior had started to worry- when they saw that their son’s appearance had begun to; deteriorate. Every time his parents would ask Angelo about his condition, he would drive them away with the reassurance that- he was; alright, and because of that- his parents could only look at Angelo with sadness before leaving his room. All they could do was; swallow the bitterness they had felt as; parents- since their son refused- to personally share- to them his struggles. They hope that -there would come a time- when Angelo would have the confidence to spill everything to them. As they are Angelo’s parents, they would gladly listen to every single thing he would confess to them, and
That night as Angelo’s parents were; having a mental breakdown in front of their son- who was helplessly lying on the hospital bed. A team of hospital doctors suddenly made their way and took Angelo- to undergo a procedure to remove all the toxic substances in his body. Angelo’s parents were anxious by each of the passing hours that- their son is away from them- they don’t know what would happen by each minute the time would move. They could only hope that their son would be able to; successfully escape the clutches of death. As their patience was slowly fading away, a doctor emerged from the emergency room- which the three of them had grabbed immediately, not wanting to let the doctor escape from their inquiries. As soon as; the doctor had explained to them- the condition of; Angelo. His parents and Angelus had finally sighed in relief. Each of them slowly slumped in the benches found in the hospital’s hallways, and when the doctor had seen the relief look- on the f
With the drawing out of his last breath, Angelo’s life scene- that was being on a replay slowly started to fade. The crowd of people- that was around Angelo was; long gone, and the noisy background was changed- into that of; pure tranquility. Also, the scene- wherein Angelo was; lying in his pool of; blood had changed into that- of pure whiteness. That even a spot of blood was; nowhere to; be seen. The scene slowly changed, and the once pure white and silent background shifted to a location where there was a rich sound of waters flowing, and the scenery was as if it was the middle of the milky way galaxy. The colorful and beautiful setting was enough to mesmerize whoever would get to see it. Angelo, who- was lying on the cold pavement, was now standing in the middle of the beautiful scenery. He was looking around as if bewildered- why he was in the sort of place. Angelo then walked, trying to find his way, and with each step that Angelo; takes- ripples started to for
Angelo stayed inside the boundary for quite a long time; he was figuring out how he could get back to the mortal world- that Angelo began walking; aimlessly in hopes he could get back home. While walking without a definite direction in mind, Angelo stumbled upon a shining and mesmerizing stone. Angelo could not keep his balance that he had fallen face flat on the ground that looked like a clear water surface. He immediately supported himself upwards, and when he had done so, Angelo touched his nose- to see whether it was; broken or not. When he was sure that no damage had been done- in his oh so precious nose, Angelo looked at the piece of stone that had caused him to trip over. And his eyes- shine wide when seeing a deep hole just beside the; stone, an idea flashes through his mind; Angelo then prepared himself to dive under the deep hole. If his theory is; right then, he would be; able to escape the place by diving into the ominous pit. Angelo dived inside, and as
