Nezha Marleigh Sanchez "What's that?" Agad kong itinago ang design na ginagawa ko at ngumiti nang makita kong papalapit si Philos sa akin. He was holding a tray with a glass of orange juice and some club sandwich. "Nothing." Pilya akong nakangiti habang tinitiklop nang maliit ang design na itinatago ko sa kaniya. Nang ibaba niya ang tray sa lamesa ko ay siya namang silip niya sa kung anong tinatago ko sa aking likuran. "If it's nothing then why are your hands on your back?" he asked as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. He was grinning at me. He can really see through me. Agad akong nag-isip ng palusot at nagkunwari akong nag-iinat. "Ah! Ang sakit ng katawan ko! Ganito ba kahirap ang gumawa ng designs araw-araw?" pagkukunwari ko habang nag-iinat inat. Naglakad siya patungo sa likod ko at naramdaman ko naman ang pagmasahe niya sa aking likod. I'm wearing a tank top that's

Kalisto Rivera She's breaking. She's aching. She wanted to break down but she can't. I want to hug her, put her in my arms. I want her in my arms right now but she dismissed me. I don't want to leave her but I don't know what I can do to help her. What I can only do is give her space. Humilig ako sa pader malapit sa pintuan niya. Tiningnan ko ang kisame kasabay ng kung paano ko nalaman ang lahat. I thought I did the right thing. I know that the worst-case scenario was this, but I never thought that it will shatter her more than when she was broken. Sinapo ko ang noo ko at pumikit. "You're stupid, Kalisto. Very stupid." What happened the other night came into my mind, and I can't help but regret knowing about it. She was there, lying in my arms. Her small body tucked inside my arm as she sleeps soundly. I kissed her forehead, stood up, get dressed, and went out of our room that night. I heard Alois an

Nezha Marleigh Sanchez I woke up in a colorless world. It looked like an old movie in black and white. It looked lifeless and lonely. The rest of the world is just simply black and white. It seemed that the world stopped and the colors seeped away from the universe. There are no birds chirping, no cars moving nor other people walking. I was alone in this place. I looked around the whole place but it was simply a world full of loneliness. I walked around the place but I didn't find a single person. In an instant, I felt lonely. I felt the pain of living alone in this world. It's hard to live in a world that is lifeless and in black and white. It was hard. I tried to look around for another time, in hope that I'll see a single living person. I walked aimlessly in this unfamiliar world then I fell down. I fell on my knees and landed on my both hands. There, I was down on my knees in front of a gravestone In front of Philos and our children's gr

Nezha Marleigh Sanchez Nang makapasok ang wheelchair ko sa apartment ay agad akong dinamba ni Adi. "Wait! Adi!" His paws are on my lap and he gave me kisses all over my face. Such a slobber. Inilayo ko ang mukha ko kay Adi at hinawakan ang collar niya. "Wait! Sit, Adi." Agad namang sumunod si Adi at humihingal na tumingin sa akin. Inabutan naman ako ni Kalisto ng panyo upang punasan ang mga laway ni Adi na nasa mukha ko. "Your dogs missed you, especially this one." Tumingala ako sa kaniya at ngumiti. "He's the unruly one. Most of them are well-behaved. Sadyang spoiled lang si Adi kasi siya ang first dog ko." Tumango-tango si Kalisto at tumalungko sa harap ni Adi. The other dogs also rushed towards me but they sat right beside my wheelchair. Unluckily, I can't take care of them while I still have my cast on. I still need to wait for almost a month and a half for the cast to be removed. 

Nezha Marleigh Sanchez I woke up without Kalisto beside me. Hindi ko alam pero umasa ako na siya ang makakagisnan ko ngayong umaga. Hinanap-hanap siya ng braso ko pero walang Kalisto sa tabi ko. When I opened my eyes, it landed on a ring glistening on my finger. A smile crept on my lips and I closed my eyes to drift back to sleep. Kalisto the sneaky one. Hindi ko man lang naramdaman noong inilagay niya ang singsing sa daliri ko. Unti-unti na akong hinihila ng antok nang naramdaman kong lumundo ang side ko ng kama. Hindi ko ito pinansin at mas piniling magpahila sa antok, but how can you fall asleep when someone is bothering you. He kissed my bare back and up to my nape. I can even feel him sniffling against my neck. I can also feel his warm hand caressing my shoulder down to the center of my breast to my stomach. I moaned under his touches and my body woke up. I no longer feel drowsy but I'm more aroused and I would choose his kisses than sl
