CHAPTER 10
  Katie don't cry I know you're trying your hardest "Surely Zon will take over you if he's here. He's such a great loss in our family," I heard Auntie Lucia. She was talking to my father while my mother was standing beside him, sipping a glass of wine. I leaned on the wall near them. I watched my cousins played at the pool while the rest of my relatives gathered at the table. I think they're talking about business, or likely they're blabbing about other people's lives. I went home this weekend to attend family gatherings. I hated this kind of stuff, but I couldn't say no to my family since they have been looking for this once a year. It's not that I hated my relatives, it's what they're saying that I hated.&n

CHAPTER 11
Let's toast to the lucky one I tasted the familiar smell of iodoform. The antiseptic reminded me of the first time I woke up from the accident. It was a blurry sight until it registered to me that I was in the university hospital. "Uh." I cried. My head hurts like hell. I puffed inside the oxygen mask. I felt the water in my throat as I breathed. I slowly lifted my hand to massage my temple. A soft, flexible tube was placed inside my veins. What happened? Oh yeah. I drowned. Gosh,

CHAPTER 12
    Maybe it will all work out like in the movies Zack Jersey Mendoza Zendaya's POV "Did you get in an accident?" I turned to Aae when Chad asked the question. We were inside the locker room to change to our sports attire. It's P.E. time and we'll be playing baseball for this quarter. I closed my locker and tucked my P.E. shirt. It's been a while since I played baseball. "Ah yeah, a motorcycle accident," Aae answered. "Oh, it must be hard. The scar is still fresh though," Chad surveyed A

  Now even if it's perfect, I can't get carried away Zack Jersey Mendoza Zendaya's POV "Zendaya!" Coach Alvid yelled at me. I bent on my knees and gasped for air. I felt the sweat dashing through my ears. "Why are you always late for morning practice?" "Coach, it's just five minutes," I answered, still steadying my breath. Why is the pool area so far from the field? "Five minutes is still precious. You're the captain," he frowned. "You still check on Zamora before coming here?" "Sssh," I straightly pointed my index finger to my lips. "T

CHAPTER 14
O. Our hearts beat inside our chest leaving us gasping for every breath I was surprised to see Aae sitting on the stairs as I stepped inside the house. I've seen him countless times sitting on the stairs, so I think it was his most favorite spot in the house. As for me, I loved the porch. He flipped his module before turning to me. "You still up?" I checked my silver watch. It's already nine in the evening. "I'm waiting for you," he casually replied as he stood up. "I went to the after-party," I said. We won the overall championship for the Inter-high Schoo

CHAPTER 15
P. Please don't be sad I really believe you were the greatest thing that ever happened to me My eyes were clouded with tears as I walked home. There was no particular reason as to why my tears fall out of a sudden. My senses somehow figured out it needed to release the liquid hovering around my chest to breathe. Have you ever felt that? Or it just me? The particular feeling where a part of your body moved involuntarily to help you cope up with the dread clouding inside your cells. It was your body that adjusted to keep you alive and well.

Q. Quite as bright and when we look to the sky, its not mine, but I want it so   The familiar smell of petrichor made me wince as I stepped out of the porch. I placed my hot coffee beside the threshold and positioned myself on the chair. The brewed coffee Gab sent me automatically calm my nerves as I opened my book. It was my 8th book since Christmas Break. I spent the break at Tita Annly's house because my parents were still in Singapore. I refused to join them because I don't like to pretend I was enjoying a vacation when I have a lot of things going on in my mind. I started reading the book Aae

 Romeo must die before the ending with a final poison kiss"You're..." He massaged his chiseled jawline while thinking of how to describe my look.I was wearing a sleeveless aqua green dress. It stayed above my knees, while I clutched the sling bag on my left shoulder. There were no details on the dress, just plain. I paired it with my flats because I don't like heels.I also braided my hair like a crown because I felt like doing so. Well, the real reason was I wanted to highlight the necklace Zack gave me.He told me we're going to some fancy place which apparently was one of their 5-star hotels.

 Save me from this broken heart, all my love will slowly fade away"Zee Katie," My mother yelled as soon as she reached me standing in the garden. "What was that?

They didn't even bother asking about my opinion.

CHAPTER 20
  That I can live without you, but without you, I'll be miserable at bestI heard a slow clap after reaching the edge of the pool. I immediately removed my goggles and I saw Coach extending his hands on me."Coach," I greeted. I grabbed his hand as he pulled me. I removed my swim cap and let my hair on loose. "I guess this will be the last time," I said, trying to hide my sadness.I bowed down with a wide smile on my face upon saying, "Thank you for everything, Coach."I heard him chuckle as he pats my shoulder. He lifted my head and placed his hand on both of my arms. "I'm so proud of you, Zee. Thank you for being a great student.""I'll miss you, Coach. I'll miss everything," I wipe the shot of liquid that is trying to leave my eyes."You are making me cry, Zamora. Come here," he hugs me. "You are always welcome to visit me here. Okay?"I nodded upon leaving his hug. "Thank you," I repeated again.
