บททั้งหมดของ More Than What Meets the Eye: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

  The orange hue of a sunset majestically spread across the skies. Care glanced above with a silly smile. The mood indeed contributes to one's perspective, she realized. Yesterday, she was indifferent to the beauty of nature and uninterested in little things that bring forth joys. Whereas now, she seemed an idiot for finding the swaying of trees adorable. Unwilling to kill her current mood, she ditched her ride. She just left a message for Teddy so they'd know better than waste time searching for her  inside campus. She hailed a taxi that dropped her off on the side of the road. The driver looked confused but did not pry. The extra cash she paid him was probably enough for him not to stick his nose on her business. She was prancing and humming as she ventured into the woods. All thanks to the bag of empanadas, she still had the energy for a

[TRIGGER WARNING: contains sensitive themes]   The angry yells of Ena proved useless to halt her daughter’s movements. And so, Ena faced Aure with crestfallen face. She bent to Aure’s level then caressed her hurt cheek. "My apologies, hija. The brat has been upset since we waited in the mausoleum everyday since you stood us up last Monday. You see, her ego was wounded pretty bad. That superiority complex of hers is an Aragon gene I despise with all my heart. Worry not, I will get her begging on her knees next Monday. Take care, k?" Little did Aure know that was the last time she will ever see Caress Aragon.  The venomous words of Care grilled into her head even after she was home. I am everything you cannot be, remember!

  Throughout the day, she was a social butterfly again in order to remind herself who she is. She is hellbent on erasing any traces of Aurelia Vicentes in herself. Pushing Ram's death at the farthest corner of her mind was what she believed the first requirement until Eli showed up. The man she thought warmhearted was actually capable of ruthlessness. He shamed her with black rose bearing a symbolic meaning of deep-seated hatred, rudely turned his back at her and ignored her calls. Lots of onlookers started murmuring to each other. Gossips will surely blow up if she follows him further. Nonetheless, her poor legs, yet to recuperate from strenuous physical activities she had been forced through, ran after him. "Eli, wait!" she shouted half-begging. He kept his brisk pace as if he heard nothin

I won't be able to update for two weeks starting this week so my next release will be on December 22. My apologies, sincerely. Just had so much on my plate with our finals on top of the list but to compensate I'll dro the last part of 29 and 30 in consecutive days. Hope you're doing fine and getting by, fellas. XOXO!TEASER: "Why won't you ask my name?" She asked since they reached the point of taking pictures two strangers together do not normally do.She sat up so he did the same. "Do you want to tell me?" he answered with another question right of the bat.Introducing herself as Caress would sound absurd while using Aurelia makes her sick in the stomach and uttering a false name is burdensome. To hide in anonymity felt good. Therefore, she found herself slowly shaking her head.

  Opposite ends coiled. Its red shimmer turned somber as the string of fates was completely cut off. Care instinctively clutched her chest while gasping for air and her tears trickling on the sand one after another, floored by a longing so intense that plagued her soul. If she could only reach or seize what was amiss deep within her, she would! On the other hand, Eli was motionless. The disunion crushed him just as much through an unsettling feeling that shook his whole body; hollowed sensations even felt by his fingertips. His tears fell, too, conveying the depth of his pain he has yet the capacity to comprehend. WHOOSH! Gusts of winds sent their photo memento adrift the air current while waves swallowed the rusty scissors unbeknownst to them because of the unprecedented arrival of two myst
