Liam’s dream career is within his arm’s reach. His Holy Grail sitting in the room where he’s in. His closed-up radiant façade moved the hearts of millions of viewers. What ensues is carved in stone. I wish he was singing to me. Saturday Morning. Today was Liam’s awaited audition for a nightly telecasted singing competition. He must feel very excited. It has always been his focal point ever since he was a kid.  I’ll have my uneventful day with open arms, for I want to stay at home all day long. Play with Kit, who grew advanced of his time. Taught him a few tricks and I’m proud to say, he’s a fast-learner. I did my laundry earlier than I scheduled it every weekend and centered at my assignments that are due next week.  Mom completely conceded to skip a Movie night for Liam.  Even if I already told her about our split u

SATURDAY NIGHT. THE SAME DAY.Mom wouldn’t be at home tonight, or if she did, she’ll be no later than midnight.  As a fail-safe, I rambled around the boulevard a little bit and ended up having supper at a famous fast food chain near my campus.The fast food is in full house as usual, never innocent of patrons. Dining crews streaked across the place like birds, but in an organized manner. The store’s closing is around 10 p.m. and I only have one hour left to chomp my all-time favorite unctuous quarter-pound patty cheese burger.I parroted back my conversation with Elijah inside my head when an eccentric crew, who’s covering his identity with his cap’s visor, loomed at my eating spot. He handed me a plastic cup of chocolate vanilla sundae with a mischievous grin.“This is a limited-time promo for our special customers,” he said half-smiling.His voice sounded neighborly to my ears, but still vague. I can

The interior was adorned with a predominant masculine accent, black and amber motif, suitable for a patriarch head of the family. Rounded rustic table, surrounded with velvety coal gray ling seats and bear skin rug propped on the floor. Marco and Jake were too immersed in a two- player interactive game at their phones in the corner, while Mom took a forty-winks on the massage chair, obstructed in the corner part of the interior. Liam and I, on the other hand, played with Kit, and caught up with one another, being apart for the past week. “How were the results of your midterms?” asked Liam in his sensuous voice. I extensively narrated to Liam how I managed to aced up the Midterms with the fabulous help that I got from Elijah, which I’m madly grateful for. Liam coped up with almost perfect scores in every subject in his syllabus, making him a potential candidate for magna cum laude. He’s inherently smart, that he could juggle his meteoric career

We all agreed to have the twins come with us. Mom’s still at our room and I went upstairs to come collect her. She had a slight fever and adjured us to go without her. I crossed my heart that I would behave rationally as I do most of the time. I waved her and Kit  goodbye and pined her that she would present me the clean bill of health once we get back.The blazing heat on the rainforest section was insurmountable. We could feel the blistering heat permeating inside the airconditioned car.I ensconced myself beside the driver to have a superior view of the whole trip. Monkeys were swinging from tree to tree through vines and dragonflies were droning through air.I can hear the shuttering of camera from behind me, which Evans was too engrossed in capturing money shots. He also works part-time at a start-up business that principally focuses on saving the environment. It pays a little but for Evans, it’s a job where he invests most of his blood, sw

I carefully dipped from the bluff as Evans assisted me. I can infer that Liam saw red when Evans wrapped his arms around my midriff to aid me. I’ve never seen him this jealous with anyone else, other than the incident with Caleb, that conflicted me ever since the twins set foot on the island.For whatever reason was Liam unrested in sight of Evans, I felt strongly guilty. We plopped at the umbrella’s shade adjacent to the waters.“I’m sorry.”I held Liam’s scrunched face and kissed him. He was trying to hold back, but never detracted.“I don’t have any clue at all with your rivalry with Evans, but if you really wanted for me to avoid him by any means, I’ll-------.”“He stole my first love,” Liam disrupted, as he accidentally crushed his ice cream cone in his fist. He tried to calm himself down after his outburst, as he wiped off the ice cream orts on his hands with a morning to
