P.
Please don't be sad I really believe you were the greatest thing that ever happened to me
My eyes were clouded with tears as I walked home. There was no particular reason as to why my tears fall out of a sudden. My senses somehow figured out it needed to release the liquid hovering around my chest to breathe.
Have you ever felt that?
Or it just me?
The particular feeling where a part of your body moved involuntarily to help you cope up with the dread clouding inside your cells. It was your body that adjusted to keep you alive and well.
Miserable at Best (The End)I was already at the door when Gab called me. I turned my back and saw her smiling with tears in her eyes. She immediately hugged me."I hated Aae, but what he did today." She lost her words. So did I.I have no words to describe what he did for me. It was beyond what I expected.I somehow hated him.I hated him because he sacrificed himself for my happiness. I hated him because a part of me wanted to stay, yet I know that the love I have for him would never complete us.I hated him for ruining the wedding. I hated him for creating chaos between our families and the audiences. I hated him for making me a runaway bride. I would probably be the headline on the business page tomorrow, but who cares?I hated him. I hated him for everything. But, when I looked at him standing at the altar with a smile on his face, I lost the hatred in my heart.I realized that no matter how much I hated him, I hated myself more than him. I hated myself for not being able to give b
Z.I sniffed the chocolate scent as soon as I entered my room, so I wasn't shocked to see Aae sitting comfortably on my couch. He was staring at the glass wall beside my bed. He was probably watching the starry sky as he slowly tossed the hardball, or he was just spacing out."Why didn't you run away?" He caught the ball midair and placed it back on my side shelf. It was the ball my brother used to play baseball with Zack."What are you doing in my room?" I scoffed. "There's a saying that the groom and the bride shouldn't see each other before the wedding.""Don't even think about it." He stood up. "The wedding will happen, and this time you know it's for real." He tilted his head as he scanned me. "I was surprised Zack didn't think about-""I didn't accept his proposal." I cut him off. I don't want to think about it because I was too tired of crying. I just want to lay down on my bed. "I'm going to sleep, so would you mind leaving my room?""Why?""It's our wedding. Do you want my mo
Y.You were the greatest thing that ever happened to meI was never a morning person. I always hated waking up in the morning. But if I would wake up next to Zack, with his arms embracing me while the sun rose from the sea, that's another story I would like to read every moment of every day."If luck is on my side tonight, my clumsy tongue will make it right and wrists that touch," he whispered right through my ears as he hugged me from behind.I caressed his left forearm as he circled it around my neck. "It isn't much, but it's enough to form imaginary lines." Zack continued singing. I couldn't hide my smile, and the butterflies were circling my stomach.The dawn was already fading as the skies turned into pink with a touch of golden rays. I closed my eyes upon feeling its warmth. The sound of waves was as calm as Zack's voice."Forget your scars, we'll forget mine, the hours change so fast...Oh God, please make this last..."I felt his lips at the top of my head while he tightened h
X.EXperiments I'm going to put you through, now it'll only make you dizzy, sick, and paralyzed. I think you'll live without the antidote, the ending's a surprise. I think you'll lieI never understood the happiness rain could give. Not until my brother taught me how to dance under the drops of rain falling from the skies. Zon was a lover of rain. He used to wait for nimbus clouds or cloudless skies in the evening, hoping it would rain.He was the one who taught me to listen to the tiny droplets of sounds on our ceiling like a heartbeat coming to life. He was the one who taught me to enjoy a coffee in my cozy bedroom, with books, while listening to Mayday Parade.My brother taught me a lot of things, but he never taught me how to live without him.Now, staring at the window, while the clouds began to cry, made my heart aches. I guess I could never enjoy the rain as I used to.The rain seemed to be sympathizing over my agony, while I spent the whole weeks living in this home, well it w
W.When all I remember is talking is cheap and your lies are expensive"What are you staring at?" Laudi asked upon entering the resident's quarter. I was sitting on the swivel chair, focusing my eyes on the screen of the computer. My Mayday Parade playlist was playing in the background.My favorite place is wherever you areBut I don't know where you are"Have you forgotten what the brain looks like while looking for yours?" I said, joking to at least ease my emotions.Laudi scowled. "I know. It's just why you are looking at it? Are you going to change your specialization?" His hands looked for something to play on the table. "Is the vocalist of Mayday Parade broken?"He frowned upon hearing the song I'm playing.Now this crack beneath the ocean floor, it calls it way up to meAnd when I sleep I don't know whyBut it suggests I should come to find it"I might if Zack's memories still not back," I replied, ignoring his questions about Mayday Parade. They're still the best band for me a
V.Voice crying loud, I've been crying for days now and as I start to run, I stop to breathe."Who is he?"His voice made me stopped what I was supposed to do. I placed the lap harp on the side table before facing him. He played with his black penlight as he leaned on the glass window adjacent to the patient's bed.I furrowed my brows. "Didn't you read the patient's name, Lauyton?" He was a friend from college and a resident like me. I became close to him because of Gab. He was Gab's ex-fiancee."Zendaya, Zack Jersey Mendoza." He stared with annoyance in his face though he was wearing a mask. "I'm jealous."I managed to crack a laugh that didn't reach my eyes. "Why would Lauyton Diem Elarde be jealous of him?" I looked at Zack.I watched the beat of his heart on the monitor screen before moving my eyes to the ICP monitor that indicated his minimal brain activity. If this will continue, he might fall into a vegetative state. I'm hoping it would not result in that."You don't even know
