Alex doesn’t have any problems with Jodi either and Shantal is grateful. Jodi is very careful with his speech and mentions nothing of what Alex is or isn’t; most of their conversations revolve around, interestingly enough, Shantal. “You should see him when he’s trying to sleep,” Alex says one time, eyes excited. “He makes these little noises when he’s trying to sleep, they’re really too cute.”“Hey, I do not!” Shantal interjects.When Jodi looks him over, right eyebrow raised, Shantal flushes unnecessarily. “What?”“You two…sleep together?”“Of course!” Alex bounces in his seat. “I keep Shantal warm at night.” “Shantal” Jodi repeats, enunciating the name.Alex, bless his soul, doesn't sense the sudden tense air around Jodi and continues to talk and talk, picking out more of Shantal’s bad habits. In

After some time, Shantal was pulled out of her  increasingly morbid thoughts by a voice that suddenly cut through her line of thought. He jumps up and opens the door to see Alex there with arms open wide and his ever present smile glowing on his face. “Look, I have a band-aid!” he says brightly, pointing to the blue tape on his forehead. Shantal feels something build up in his chest and he laughs to alleviate the pressure, eyes stinging. “What’s wrong, Shantal? Don’t you like my band-aid?” Shantal launches himself at Alex, muffling a sobbing sound he will deny to the ends of the Earth. Alex catches him and laughs, wrapping his arms tight around Shantal’s smaller body. Alex is also the one who sees the “medics” out, thanking them happily, all while holding Shantal tightly against him. Shantal buries his face in Alex’

 Their first shower together is the only one Shantal will ever remember. Alex doesn’t have a problem with being without clothes and he steps into the bath tub first, urging Shantal to join him. Bathing for Alex is like eating: he doesn’t need to do it but he enjoys doing it nonetheless, if only to be with Shantal. Shantal feels a little silly telling Alex to close his eyes as he strips to his boxers but he feels even sillier trying to sit in between Alex’s legs in the tub because he takes up so much room. “Is Shantal really dirty?” Alex asks, hands resting on top of Shantal’s thighs. “I just showered this morning so not really.” “Can I wash you anyway? I want to see what it’s like.” Still a little hesitant, and perhaps a bit self-conscious, Shantal passes Alex the      soap and

 I love you. In the years to come, Shantal would hate herself for not saying it out loud for Alex to hear. With a soft kiss, Alex lets out a rough gush of air. The sound is unsettling and rings of finality but it doesn’t stop Shantal from calling Alex’s name over and over again, hoping for a little reaction. It hits him then, when Alex doesn't move. It’s over.He’s gone. He’ll never see Alex’s smile ever again. He’ll never see that little facial twitch he’s grown to adore. He’ll never wake up in his arms.He’ll never kiss his lips. He’ll never…love anyone else the way he loved Alex. First a broken sound falls from his lips then he sobs against Alex’s unmoving chest, fingernails digging into his shirt. Alex lies benea

My office was on the eighth floor of the building so I rode the elevator to get there. There was no one inside the elevator when I get there and I thought that I would be riding it all by myself. Yet just as when its door was about to close, a hand stopped it from closing.Right there and there, a group of employees entered the elevator and unsure of what to do, I tried to turn around. This time, it was my back that was facing them, we were jam-packed inside."I heard that Madam Thunderstorm is coming to work today." I heard someone initiated a conversation and it was received with fervent reaction. "Are you for real?! That must be awful." "As much as I hated it as well, I heard someone from the ground floor alerting the HR that they spotted her car at the parking lot." "UHRG! That is an awful way to start the day. I wonder what kind of bad wind that brought her here in this building."
