Chapter 21: Need
I stared at my notebook blankly. I ripped it off as soon as I finished composing the first verse.
Something doesn't feel right. I can compose songs before. They were all fine whenever I try to put it up with some tune and sing it but now, it's been weeks since Zaron challenged me to write an original composition and I haven't gone back to him yet.
Where is he, by the way?
Their band's name trended on Twitter when they disbanded. Kit left the country already and the other members Nico and Eli were to focus on their studies. What's his plan? The article never mentioned his name.
"Are you done with the activity, Jael? I need to pass it now to the faculty," one of my classmates went to me, asking for my paper.

Perfect Harmony Chapter 22: Fall
Rueben drove me to school today. The three of us had breakfast in the hospital before he drove us to our schools. We dropped off Sara first at her school before coming here.It's still early. We just wanted to visit our parents together at the hospital because this is the only time Rueben is free. After this, he'll go back to the company to finish his work."How's school?" He asked."Fine," I answered while finishing my drink. "Zaron's here, too."He looked at me for a while. I'm sure he has the same questions I have. But isn't life making it easy for me? I mean, I don't have to worry about not meeting him again or joining the band because whatever happens, I can always find and meet him in school.
Perfect Harmony Chapter 1: Size 9
I tried to open my eyes, but they won’t cooperate. I slept late last night because I was too excited for today. The loud ringtone of my phone filled my ears, and it made me get out of bed. Still, with my eyes closed, I reached it even though I don’t know where exactly it is. The call suddenly ended. I thought of going back to bed, but it rang again. “What do you want?” I said to whoever is trying to ruin my day. I heard a chuckle from the other line. “Still in your pajamas? Maybe you want to consider getting ready?” I glanced at the wall clock of my room and saw that’s it just seven in the morning. “I might want to go back to bed, Rueben,” I answered. “You can but-” “Hello?” I gave up as soon as I heard Sara’s voice. “Jael, do you know what time it is? Get up now and get ready! We have a lot of things to buy at the mall. We should be home before dinner,” she stopped for a while as if she said something w
Perfect Harmony Chapter 2: Kid
What a coincidence. Maybe her girlfriend and I have the same size? The sales lady he just asked to assist him entered the same door where the lady who asked for my size entered earlier. I sat down on the couch, and he did, too, at the sofa across me. When he removed his cap and ran his fingers through his hair, I heard the gasps of the other staff behind the counter. Wearing a black polo shirt and maong pants paired with white shoes, he looks young, but I’m not sure. He sat and looked so manly in front of me. I pursued my lips, preventing myself from smiling as I saw how the female staff gushed over him. I get that he’s handsome, but how can they be head over heels over a stranger? Unless he’s a regular customer? He suddenly lifts his face, and our eyes met. He looked at me with strange eyes, so I raised my eyebrow at him and looked away. He might assume I am checking him. Boys nowadays are very unpredictable. The sales lady who assist
Perfect Harmony Chapter 3: Saudade
I was running so fast to get to where my cousins are. I bumped into many persons, and I didn’t have the chance to say sorry because I was so nervous to the point I couldn’t breathe properly. Why is Abigail like that? What happened? The tips of my hair are pounding against my shoulder because of my high pony. From afar, I saw Aaron and Rueben waiting for me outside the car. They looked disturbed, and it made me scared even more. “W-what’s happening?” “Get inside now,” Rueben commanded. Aaron opened the door for me. Abigail is crying, and Sara immediately hugged me. “H-hey… what’s wrong? Why are y-you all being like this?!” No one’s answering me. I feel like I’m about to go crazy! “Drive now, David!” I started crying. Hana is comforting Abigail because she keeps on sobbing even though my cousins already told her to stop. They all rushed inside the house when the car stopped. Rueben held me because my knees
Perfect Harmony Chapter 4: Envelope
I stared blankly at the white wall. The silence is deafening. I sat here, lifeless, while everyone is praying and hoping that my parents will get through this. Even if it was unbearable to see, I looked back to see my parents. They're both lying on different beds with different machines attached to them. I could feel they're struggling. And it just pains me more to see them both there. Sara's not here. She couldn't even move when Uncle William fetch us earlier so we can rush here. She's too shocked to process everything right now. How ironic, right? She a nursing student, but she can’t even do something right now. Uncle Lucas is on his phone. He's been receiving endless phone calls since he got here. They're all asking about the accident and my parents' status. I bet those who called and will call do not really care about my parents. They’re just worried about the company being left alone because my family will consider this situation their to
Perfect Harmony Chapter 5: de Silvas
Abigail jumped to my bed. "Ugh! I'm so sleepy! I wish Uncle and Auntie would wake up soon..." I saw her enveloped herself with my comforter and closed her eyes. Instead of resting, I sat in front of my table and opened my laptop. "What are you doing? Didn't you ask me to go home so we could rest?" She asked in a sleepy tone. "I have things to finish," I answered shortly. I typed "Lucille de Silva" on my search engine and went to the images section. Rueben texted me this name out of the blue when we aren’t even on good terms. He said it’s the name of the woman who’s in the photos with our father. He’s not sure, but he had a hunch. "Is it related to your Youtube channel? Were there any comments about the accident of your parents? Because if they pester you about that, maybe you should take a break from uploading your covers." "They won’t, Abi,” I assured her. “My viewers saw them once, but I’m sure I did not menti
Perfect Harmony Chapter 6: Preparation
"Wow. He’s really not joking. I thought I had at least a year or a couple of months," I said to myself as I read the newly published article about the Valmonte Group. It's all about the inauguration of Rueben as the CEO of Valmonte Developments and Designs. My father's absence caused fear among the board members that Uncle Lucas and Uncle William might not accept the responsibility because they are both busy with the other companies. I thought when we talked about this on the car, it was just a shallow or temporary problem of the company. Seeing that they accelerated everything to be done as soon as possible, maybe my father’s absence was a significant loss to the group. Rueben has been training for a year or two now, so I guess he has learned something from Dad and our Uncles. He's bound to take over, though, with or without the accident. He wanted to run the family's business, unlike Sara, who wants to enter the medical field and, of course, unlike me, who

I walked from the mansion up until the gate, and when I passed through it, I started running. The mansion is located in Laguna. The lot that our grandparents bought is too big for the villa only, so Dad and my uncles had decided to put it to good use when they first got their positions in each company. Actually, the mansion's location is isolated from the other neighborhood and far from the city. They thought it's a good idea to purchase a land far from everyone to be relaxing and peaceful. If I took one of our cars and decided to drive a little farther, there's a waterfall that we could always run to. Not to mention the mountains that surround the area, too. In short, whenever we go here, this place can always be our escapade. I put on my earbuds and star
