"Everyone has a story to tell and the truth is I am afraid to tell you mine; but in this world embraced by darkness, allow me to become your brightest shadow!" Two different individuals— David Chwe, an 18-year-old boy with secrets darker than a June's night without the guidance of the moon. A boy with phases that are likely to coerce one to kick the bucket. — Travis Fujiriki [Park], is a 19-year-old boy who has always isolated himself from the naked eyes of the world. All that David had to do was to get his mission done and that was to lure Travis into the spider's web but instead, everything chose to travel on a different route. Sparkles of love began to investigate themselves in the depths of their hearts— once an individual who ran away from affection, Travis was willing to expose his heart to David who became his comfort zone. Just like in many tales of love and war, the grass is not always greener on the other side. Will David drop Travis into the lion's den and sacrifice his love? Or will he drop it all and bring him closer under his wing and protect him regardless of anything?
View MoreA clap of thunder rumbled immediately when his now veiny eyes collided with those harvested by treachery — poison and cold darkness. David felt his chest tightening and he could not breathe. The papers in his hands trembled, some falling on the floor with a silenced, pitiful whine. “This…!” “Your new job!”Mr M intruded on David who could not release words from his quivering, dry mouth. The man’s voice rumbled throughout the dining room, making David’s muscles tighten with fear — afraid to even land his eyes on the one speaking. “New job? W-what…why are Travis’s…pictures…?”David calculated and investigated quietly, his trembling voice dropping into a whisper. He was paralyzed to the spot and could not move his body — he felt cold air bite into his chest, making it hard for him to breathe. His tear-filled eyes darted around, landing on anything possible — from his shaking hands to Mr Sok whose face showed no emotions. Confused, David felt his world start to shake — he felt like he
[CHAINS AROUND MY NECK; DELIVER ME FROM HELL]The wind firmly cried as David stood there, his eyes filled with burning fear while he stared at the gigantic house that was covered by pulsating, crimson-red lights — each blinking as if warning him to go back where he came from and if he were to enter, he’d not come out alive. “RUN!” A sonorous voice in the chambers of his head whispered but he could not move an inch of his body. He stood still as he continuously exhaled deeply. His hands were shuddering deep in his pockets — he was now counting past 51. “RUN!” The same voice advised but once again, David dared not to move — he felt his hands heavy and could not lift any of them. He did want to turn around and leave, and never come back but the longer he looked at the lights blinking in his direction, the sweeter the spell became as it travelled through his head and to the back of his skull. He could take a step back and walk away but he knew the consequences that would come with tha
[IT’S NOT OVER, I WILL FIGHT BUT WILL YOU GIVE ME A CHANCE?”]“I will say it…!” Travis whispered while he closed his eyes, smiling dreamily as he leaned his head back on the wall. He breathed smoothly — not rushing himself as if this was the last time he’d breathe. His slim fingers intertwined with each other, hiding all the sweat that had been preventing him from touching anything. There, he sat on the bench and waited for David who had asked him to wait outside, because he wanted to speak with his mother. “I will say it!” Travis said once again, this time opening his eyes. He exhaled and slouched as he buried his head in his thoughts — not very negative. “I know that it is David that I love, and I will tell him!” The boy silently giggled. The door to Mrs Chwe’s ward opened, disclosing David who slowly walked out, his lips trying so hard to curl into a smile. “You, okay?” Travis asked as soon as he rose to his feet and with a nod, David replied. There was a wave of silence that li
{WARNING! HOMOPHOB*C SLURS AND CHILD ABUSE WHICH I DON’T CONDONE & SUPPORT. DEAR READER, PLEASE READ WITH CAUTION.} “”There was nothing but the poisonous, belittling waves of silence butchering through his heart _ feeding on it as if it were a delicacy. He wanted to take a step back, he wanted to run away, he wished for the ground to open up so he could bury himself and never come out but…that was not possible, and he knew it very well. He closed his eyes and begged his ears to pretend like they did not hear the words that were now stuck in his brain. DANGEROUS — The words were so dangerous that they made his heart feel like retiring this instant. Every letter was stuck at the base of his ears. He remembered the sharp sound that came with every word and the murderous melody that flew out of her lips as she expressed every letter as if her life depended on it. “Same-sex, don’t even think about it. He knows I am against it!” The phrase made a mischievous jump in the back of his hea
[THIS PLACE IS NOT MY HOME!]The rosy sun spread its wings that stretched far in the sky, allowing its beams stealthily fall onto the boy’s figure but unfortunately his skin remained cold and pale. “My…my heart aches so much…why? I thought…I won over it!” Travis silently said to himself while his heart violently hit against the unsteady walls of his chest. His eyes glistened with tears, but never did they make an escape for it, not that they promised they wouldn’t. His eyes lazily fell onto David’s figure and watched him as he spoke; surprisingly, he could not understand the words flowing out of his lips. He frowned and did not realize that his lips and the back of his throat were dry. “Travis, are you okay?” In a whisper, David called out to him, but Travis’s ears were concentrated on only one sound, and that was his unruly heart that was hissing loudly in the depths of his ears. Every inch of his body was shivering like a signal flame held up high. His forehead frowned deeply as b
[IF IT IS LOVE, I AM WILLING TO FORGET AND FEED ON THIS FOREIGN, SWEET EMOTION. SO STRANGE BUT LET ME LINGER FOR A MOMENT]Cars whisked past David, rudely making his heart tremble deeper into an abyss of fear that strangled him until he could not breathe. Shameless! Fear traveled through his veins, mercilessly poisoning them. David gritted his teeth and looked up in a silent prayer, his hands shuddering as if they had just come out of ice. His eyelids were trembling as the wind mischievously bit onto his skin, leaving its kisses everywhere, and making him shudder. He could feel his legs working, each was numb but of course, it was not because of the cold. The boy was simply terrified, and his heart ensured to remind him of this, every second he told himself that everything was ‘okay’. He paced back and forth on the pavement while he permitted his brain to be cluttered by thoughts and a series of unending questions that lacked answers. His eyes impatiently followed the cars whisk pas
Right there, the blushing sun threw and washed itself all over his pale skin, sucking all the small energy that was last left inside of him. He exhaled air through his clenched teeth and let his eyes wander on the azure sky, dotted by a huge family of fluffy clouds that helplessly danced as if their “lives” depended on it. Does the sun have a life? That was the question Travis always asked himself and his answer was, “Yes” — a ‘yes’ filled with doubt but that was not the problem. The boy was quietly sitting by a crocked bush of white roses while his eyes tried to catch a glimpse of the red eye, but of course, that was not an easy job. From the red eye, his eyes moved and followed the nearest beams that mightily blew their kisses on everything they touched. Tilting his head to his right, Travis’s eyes slightly protruded with surprise while staring at the little flowers that gently swirled with the gentle breeze, clearly flirting with each other. The boy smirked and shook his head. H

I bet their parents are regretting their decision to give birth to them!” “They must be CANCELLED from our world. This is a disgrace!” “”Travis quietly read the comments on a video he had just watched. His heart sank into the depths of his stomach, breaking more whilst his hands began to tremble. He slowly zipped his pants and leaned back on his chair while releasing a depressed sigh that lingered in the air. His eyelids trembled while hiding his tears away back into his eyes. He felt a tight knot within the depths of his stomach and he could not breathe. His hands kept shaking until he tossed the phone on his bed. His chest tightened as he struggled to get air into his lungs. Thunder roared somewhere between the
BEAT — A heart beats wildly against a shaking wall of ribs and there, air is temporarily cut off. Eyes glisten with innocence as they search for stars into the eyes of another. The world had stopped and there wasn't a single sound but their hearts jingling against their chests. “Look at me…!” He said quietly, his eyebrows trembling. David slowly snaked out of the bed and limped in front of Travis whose chest was heaving with anxiety. His hands were already clenched into fists while he followed every awkward movement that David made and the dangling smile on his face. “Please…don't go, Travis!” David spoke in a whisper soon after placing his hands on Travis's wrists. He took another step closer to Travis and bit his lip while examining his nervous expression. “Will you leave me…Travis?” David asked once again, this time slowly moving his hands on Travis's chest and they stopped to curl around his neck. At that point, Travis's heart had missed a beat or two but that did not seem to b
