           Lights from cameras flickered like stars on a moonless night, like supernovas gone wild. Adam squinted his eyes a little from all the lights flashing in front of him that’s faster than a wink. Is this even necessary? He wondered to himself.    Yes, it was necessary, if it wasn’t he wouldn’t be able to sell his paintings. His beloved works of art. He was sitting in front of a whole audience of people representing the press who are hopelessly hunched up in their seats, recklessly scribbling down notes in their notepads, adjusting their camera lenses, and clearing their throats from time to time. He looked at them with his own restlessness.    “Mr. Ocampo,” a reporter asked. “What do you feel about your paintings being sold? You have said during your previous interviews that these new sets of paintings that were auctioned recently were like th

The open field was a commotion that day. There was a campus fair where booths and university clubs have been set up all over the grounds. Everybody was having fun except Adam, who was running frantically across the busy area and bumped carelessly into anyone who was in his way.         "Come here, you asshole!" Axel shouted angrily at a near distance. He and his football buddies were running to reach him and were hungry for taking an act of revenge towards him. All the more did the people got out of their way. Who would want to bump into four football athletes running?         "Never in a million years, bird brain!"

       It did not take long for Teresa Milan to return the pile of books in their designated bookshelves, just a few minutes after Adam left the floor. She had always loved her scheduled shifts in the library, as she had always been a bookworm ever since she was young. But, today had been quite unusual for her when the turn of events have disrupted her usual routine at work. She did not expect two of the most well-known students in their campus would disturb her peace at work. She even helped one of them--the most notorious one, to escape something that she did not even bother to know what it was about. At least he did his best to help in rearranging the books, she thought. I'll give him an 'A' for his effort...       After she waited for another library assistant to start the shift in her place at three in the afternoo

       Nothing.       She was amazed by how that single word could turn into a feeling, a dagger that could pierce into her flesh and leave a fatal wound, with no assurance that it would stop bleeding. She was always used to being left alone--until the day she had seen Adam turn his back towards her, leaving a hole in her heart. She could feel the hole in her chest growing, with an endless world of gloom swirling inside of her. With each step he took, pulling his presence slowly away from her, her soul being torn apart under extreme agony that it is without a body to rest itself in.       It's so unfair. How could genuine love be paid back with indifference? She wondered with tears in her eyes as she just stood there at the same spot where he started walking away from her, te
