Meet me Halfway Happily But Not Yet Ever After
I clenched my hand into a fist. What on freakin' earth was Matthew doing here? And why was he wearing a black cloak and carrying a scythe? I gazed at Kyle and found that he was looking right at Matt. They were having a stare-me-down contest while the other three, who had been standing by the door only moments ago, were inching their way to get to me and Kyle. "Oh, and with all due respect, Kyle, would you introduce me to your girlfriend so she would fully understand why these three cowards are actually frightened by my sudden appearance?" Matt said, addressing Kyle like he was a puppet or something and that Matt was his master. I must have missed something here. What the hell was going on? Kyle grabbed my hand and gently pulled me to hide behind him. Although I wanted to insist, but having no complete understanding of the situation, I decided it was best to follow Kyle's wishes. "Kate, meet Matthew, as he calls himself, the Death Reaper." "What?" I wanted to believe that Ky
Meet me Halfway Suspicions
PART 3 The first is always the sweetest. First dance. First kiss. First of everything. But what if your 'firsts' turned out to be a false reality? Would you still believe in first love never dies and shut your heart off so you'll never get hurt again? Or would you take a risk and unveil the mystery of second-time-around chances? — KELSEA I watched my sister Kate as she slowly made her way out of the church. I felt the urge to follow her but decided against it. She needed alone time. I understand that. Allen was close to her heart. They were like twins born out of a different mother. I may not have been that close to my cousin, but my heart was crushed into pieces when I learned about his sudden death. Then I thought of Kate and knew that compared to the pain I was experiencing; it was twice more painful for her. And to add, our parents and I had made the terrible mistake of keeping Kyle's death from her. The sadness in her eyes was a fearful indication of how devastat
Meet me Halfway Masks
I want to quote Hazel Grace Lancaster, the main character of the famous book The Fault in Our Stars by John Greene, when she said that "depression is the side effect of dying". Indeed it is. My aunt wasn't literally on the brink of death. But ever since Allen had died, she appeared to be so every day. I want to mention another quote I saw on the internet. It was something about being sad, and it goes, "Suicide doesn't kill people, sadness does". And once again, I agreed to it. Aunt Hilda had drowned herself in the pool of sadness, which killed her on the inside. I tried to cheer her up by cooking and playing little happy music in her player and talking to her animatedly about anything I could think of, but it was to no avail. My cousin Allen was saddened by this too. He wouldn't admit it, but I knew how he wished to see his mother and tell her every little crazy thing that had happened to him. I pity him, but I can't do anything about it. Matthew was already scolded and warne
Meet me Halfway Deceit
Saturday morning, I found our lovely neighbor, Mrs Jeffrey, placing her pile of laundry into one of the machines on the ground floor of our apartment building. I settled for the other machine beside her. She looked up upon seeing me. I smiled. "You're back," she noted. I love Mrs Jeffrey and her family. There was no one here who didn't like the Jeffreys. The children were very adorable. I mostly adore Sam and her flashy smile and non-stop blabbering. She dreamed of becoming a superstar someday, and I could see her achieving it. Mr and Mrs Jeffrey have two kids, Liam and Sam. Liam was fourteen, intelligent and good-looking, while Sam was eight but acted like she was already eighteen. Mr Jeffrey works as a janitor and sometimes does some bartending jobs in a club nearby. They don't have much, but I love seeing them together. They always seem happy and content. I sometimes visualize my future family like theirs: simple, happy and dominated by love. "Well, I can't skip school
Meet me Halfway Reclusion Point Five
Even before my phone began ringing, I knew that it was Kelsea. I was tempted not to answer her, but my sister needed me. I do not know how to help her, though. I mean, I saw everything that had happened between her and Marcus. Other people might call that shallow, but I wouldn't. Marcus was a good guy. Really. He was dying to meet his psychological need, and my sister could not provide that for him. Although some might say it was the obvious choice, it still didn't justify his lying and cheating. What happened to his promise of loyalty and commitment towards my sister? I seriously wanted to punch the guy so hard he would have the bruise on his face serve as a brand, marring him for life-a great reminder for hurting Kelsea. On the one hand, my sister did the exact opposite, and I got nothing to say to her but praises. She was brave enough to say goodbye or even just talk to him after what he had done. So I had no choice but to answer my phone, which was lying beside me on Kyl
Meet me Halfway Worlds Collide
MATT I thought I had seen enough heartbreaking stories and strong people, but watching Katherine's sister made me realize I haven't seen it all. She was able to face the perpetrator in the face and actually say goodbye in an endearing way to him. I salute her for her bravery. I was all hands down to her. Aside from Katherine, I found another mortal as interesting. Maybe that trait runs strongly in their blood, hereditary or something. I had wanted to watch more of what happened to Kate's sister, but seeing that she was going to call Kate, I decided to give them a little privacy. Besides, I owe Katherine that. I had already delved into their history, which she wasn't so pleased about, even if I hadn't seen them doing something gross. There was a burning sensation in my gut. It was a feeling I hadn't encountered in a long while. My brows were furrowed as I had long ago stopped sympathizing with mortals. Yet, I couldn't help but wish I could put a curse on the man who chose a f
Meet me Halfway Vis-à-vis
I cannot believe it. I cannot freaking believe it.I had tried a gazillion times to convince Aunt to come with me to the mall but not even once was I successful while my sister had merely arrived and yet she was able to convince Aunt Hilda to go shopping with her upon our arrival in the house.
Meet me Halfway Two heads, one heart
MATTI do not know if I should be happy about what I had learned or should I start writing my resignation letter right now? I gave out a grunt and allowed myself to sit on the sofa.
