At 6:13 AM today, Chapter 102, we read the blank page.Not a pier. Not a room. A blank page.Page 101 was built yesterday. 1,284 handfuls of sand on one blank page. Today, we read it. But it is blank.

Like the clear shell from Chapter 61.She stood in front of the house that does not fly, 10, small, and said, "I read all 100 chapters."Silence. 1,284 people silent. Because we thought 100 was the end.I — Amihan, 31, owns nothing — was sitting on the sand, drinking coffee, doing nothing, like Chapter 100 told me to do. I said, "Then you know there is no Chapter 101.""I know," she said. "That is why I came. Because if there is no Chapter 101, I have to be Chapter 101."Her name is After. 10. Dagupan. After.
