The kindness he thought he never had. It was mid of the day. Yet Wayne and Anastasia laid on small one-man bed. Nothing sexual, just two exhausted teenagers after a long night. The young man was fast asleep snoring loudly, the hushing breath came from his tiresome mouth. Anastasia stayed awake the whole time, heart pounds as she was closer to him than before. “You look nicer that I thought you’d be.” She uttered at the sleeping young man. She wanted to close her eyes and rest but this was a moment she didn’t wish would end. It felt surreal. Like a fairy tale story that I’ve always hated. I mean who would believe in a charming prince coming to save a girl like me living in hell? But it happened. The girl stared in his shut eyes, appreciating the boy who gave him an opportunity to be a to start a new life. He did a lo

The Monster inside his home. He walked home with expectations. The face of her angered mother, the slap that he would get, the harsh words he’ll receive. He smiled bitterly. He tired of the same shit, the absolute rules and the controlling palm of her mother. He never obeyed her in the first place, he never once became the kind child she expected to be. The son a mother would boast in front of their peers, a son who would prove that they are a good mother. All he did was disobey and rebel, thus the feeling of hate between them was mutual. He knew that, and he expected those response. “I’m already fucked up, why bother following the fucked-up rules?” He told himself. Clenched jaw and curled lip, he had enough of his mother. He wanted to stand up for himself. To end the night of horror, to be free from the anxiety that he has each night. Mother is the cata

Feelings “Jill? What if I told you that I like him?” April curiously asked. The girl looked at Jill who laid in her shoulder, she took a nap and remind her best friend to wake her up once they reach their house. She didn’t except her response, but Jill heard it clearly. The girl opened her eyes and respond. “That’s kinda dumb April. You just said it yourself, and don’t even try to deny.” April looked down; she avoided looking at her friends’ eyes. She wondered what would happen if she and Wayne started dating. Wayne as a boyfriend, I guess I would be a fool if I said no. He played an important role on my break. He would probably be good lover. She reflected back to their kiss, his soft lips, the expected reaction he had. April bit her lips and giggled. “Maybe it wouldn’t be that bad.” “What?” But she soon regrets

THANKFUL “Farewell mother, I am shutting you from my life from now on.” Wayne left before the sun had set. It was pitch dawn, he carried his backpack and walked outside the house. He didn’t look back, his memories from his home were nothing but fear, pain and suffering. The young man partially limps as he felt the pain from the beating that he got. It swollen badly, but he kept walking away. He finally got a place to rest when he reached the closest terminal. The young man waited for a ride. He sat on empty bench with flickering lights above. He sighed and laid his body. It was nothing but peaceful, he thought about freedom. The young man sees himself like a bird who escape the cage of abuse. “Sir are you heading somewhere?” It took a while before a tricycle arrived. “Yes, take me to my sanctuary.” Wayne picked up his belonging and told the driver his address. The young man got in, he was brought the place were told

It was the old corner in t he back close near the windows, the young man stares in the window while girls that passed by wonders what goes on inside his head. She ignored the random blabbering of her teacher and sulked while thinking of him. April noticed her gloomy friend and decided to sneak beside her. She sat on Jill’s friends; her blank state best friend didn’t notice her until she tapped her shoulder. “Are you okay?” She concerningly asked. Jill stared at the window for a second, she thought about the days they used to hang out, the fun memories, and dates. The girl realized the ephemeral and couldn’t to pout because of it. Everything can turn upside down, life is short, and consistently moving. She sighed and ignored April’s words. Agitated, the impatience friend wanted to smack her in the head.

It’s her first time A sense of jealousy spark inside her, she pouted before she approached the gates. There must be some reason why’s she’s here? The girl pondered. She had the gist that the two started living, and her reaction was flushed and slightly annoyed when she thought of it. “I better find it out myself.” She shook her head and opened the gates. Everything felt surreal, yesterday was a painful rejection but a light of hope when he said it was possible. That alone gave her hope to keep going, the two hasn’t started to confess yet, and thus she believed that she had a chance. He was probably tried to be nice, but that didn’t faze Jill.

FORGIVENESS THAT HE THOUGHT HE COULDN’T GIVE There was still an hour left before he met his father, but Wayne wanted to leave already. The class was still ongoing as he waited. He was bothered with questions, he did say that he wanted to talk to him, which was something that rarely happens. He assumed that he already went back and heard the news, but what now? Will he call him to come home or disown him? He was troubled the whole time. The classroom was quiet, there wasn't much to do. The teacher writes the lesson on the board, while students copy it without question. Jill noticed the weary Wayne, she tapped on his shoulder to ask what’s wrong. “Are you okay? You seem troubled. Do you want to share your problem?” Asked Jill. The young man looked away, avoiding the answer to the question. But he knew Jill would keep buzzing about it, and so after 20 pokes on his cheeks he opened up. “My fathe
