MATT

Kyle Jason Meridez was killing himself.

As the Death Reaper, I can't deny how pleased I was to watch him suffer. After all, he was subject to punishment.

I saw everything that had happened to him and Katherine, and it made me realize that I was wrong to conclude that their love was strong.

I was hoping they won't be this shallow. But I guess I was wrong.

It disappointed me to see them fall apart after a little argument.

Katherine seemed to be the resilient one. I cannot say the same about Kyle.

Perhaps, it was the reason why he was the one who had to die.

Who believes in forever anyway? It's only a lame promise. Nothing lasts forever.

Love blinded people.

Tsk.

I glanced at the time on the wristwatch attached to my hand and clicked my tongue.

"I wonder if she'll make it in time," I chuckled. "Ooh, this would definitely be very entertaining."

KATE

When the car halted, I practically jumped out of it and approached the large house in front of me.

  • Meet me Halfway   Epilogue

    "Smile for the camera". My mother said as she made a dash to find her place beside dad on the front. I felt Kelsea's nudge before the camera clicked and captured what supposed to be our new family photo for Christmas. It was the third Christmas picture that she had to nudge me supposing that was my cue to smile. As per usual, I didn't and as soon as the madness was over, I took my seat at the table and mooned over my plate of pasta. I know that it tasted wonderful as the rest of the food on the table. But I could hardly appreciate anything. I actually hadn't appreciated anything at all. I was literally a walking dead. I also felt that everyone around me wanted to say something but instead they seemed to respect my silence and ignored me for the rest of the meal. While all of them went for the gifts after eating, I decided to pick up the trash. I tugged on my sweater as the cold wind hit me while I dumped the heavy black bag inside the bin. I let out a sigh and slowly trailed m

  • Meet me Halfway   Confusion part 2

    KATE I felt like the entire universe had fallen on me. My body was weak and it was difficult for me to open my eyes. Tons of bricks were like shoved inside my head, it was throbbing. I managed to open my eyes and found that I was lying in bed. I was back at Aunt Hilda’s and the events from last night was taking their toll on me. Groaning, I got myself up and squinted at the brightness of the room coming from the sunlight outside. Did I run a marathon last night? Why do I feel so tired all of a sudden? Well, I still have no idea what I was doing back at Aunt Hilda’s. I was supposed to be at a camp with my friends.

  • Meet me Halfway   Confusion

    KATE ‘I will help you remember’. What that mysterious stranger has said seemed to bother me although I have no idea what he meant. Remember what exactly? Did he know something about me that I didn’t? The fire crackled and it danced in my line of vision. Some of the people in our circle had started to hum as one of our group strummed the guitar. They were playing a familiar song. However, my mind was elsewhere. It was bothering me that the mysterious stranger seemed familiar. All too familiar to be exact.

    KATE“Whoa,” Shane exclaimed upon getting off the bus.“Right, whoa is the right word,” Anne claimed, placing an arm around Shane’s shoulder, pulling her as she took her phone out from her pants pocket.I was about to tiptoe away knowing that Anne would be taking a picture right after.However, before I could even make my escape, Claude grabbed me by the arm and positioned beside Anne, the latter had already extended her hand, her phone’s camera was already open.“In one, two, three, say cheese,”I forced myself to smile along with the three of them.“Oh my, we look so pretty,&rdquo

  • Meet me Halfway   A Merry Christmas

    KATE“Merry Christmas!” everyone around me loudly and cheerfully screamed. I forced myself to join and even smiled. I had no idea who most of the guests were. All I knew was that they were relatives.Aunt Hilda was busily addressing everyone. So, I had a good excuse to be out of her sight upon taking a plate full of food, opting to stay hidden inside my room.Once I was at the safety of my private space, I let out a sigh of relief. Both Allen and Aunt Hilda would most likely not notice that I was missing. They were both preoccupied and at the moment, I was having a hard time trying to keep up with people trying to talk to me.I was no fan of large crowds, family or no, friends or otherwise. It was the reason why my circle of friends was small. I easily get at
