SOUR CHRISTMASThe solemnity was loud even without saying a word. The mournful aura was consuming with no effort. The state of sadness has settled upon everyone, reflecting on their faces. No sound was made except for the sullen sound of crying and sighs that Athina made while Maria consoles her with effortless tears streaming down her eyes. Colton on the other hand managed to control his emotions still, Reid was standing by him. Colton was in deep thoughts with his bloodshot eyes. He felt empty within and even though Reid could not exactly feel what he felt, he could imagine how hurtful it was. He was attached to Liam even though he was just a few hours old. "He is just a little kid, a baby. Why was he taken away from us? Why?" he yelled with so much pain and his voice faded in his sound of cry.Athina was a little bit more conserved than Colton was. She still hadn't regained her strength so she just cried silently. She was in deep pain to the extreme, no doubt. She had carried hi

A STEP TO ATONEMENTShe stared at him, walking her eyes to his lips which were moving but seemed not to be making a single sound. She heard nothing he was saying. "Maria. Maria, are you listening?" he asked but he got no response from her. "Maria," he called her again, tapping her lightly to bring her out of whatever reverie she was lost in. She seems to have always been in a trance since yesterday. “Huhn? What? What were you saying?” she asked, looking lost. “I said we should go home,” he was gentle with her, so gentle that he could feel it himself. This wasn’t him and if he had been told he’d cared so much about how a person feels years back, he’d have sued such a person. He doesn't miss his old self though but he never saw himself as he is presently. He had caused her pain after all, he needed to take responsibility for that. There was something about Maria that he still could not put a finger at. The way she effortlessly curbed his wings was a mystery to him. He had always l

ME FOR YOU, YOU FOR ME "I was coming to you.." she said through the kiss but Reid was too engrossed in the kiss to hear her out. He kissed her so passionately, so intensely that her lips could go sore out of immense sucking and slight biting if he doesn't stop soon. At first, she wasn't going to give in to the kiss but gradually, she was letting her guard down by reciprocating the same energy the kiss carried. It was filled with passionate emotions that could only be expressed through their lips.They kissed so deeply as if their whole life depended on it. They poured out all the mixture of their emotions into the kiss and it felt like ages since they've been so intimate even though it had just been a couple of days ago. They walked in without breaking from the kiss and as they did so, Reid shut the door with his leg. He was craving her like she was his meal and in fact, she was the only meal that was enough for him. He held her face tightly in his palms and was evidently so en

NEW YEAR EVE“We should get more decoration than this,” “To be honest. It isn't even that necessary,”“Why do you think it isn’t necessary? You are having people over and you want a depressing theme?” Maria asked. She was more concerned on having a lady’s touch in his apartment than how nonchalant he seem about it. “Not people. Just a person,” Reid corrected. “You haven't told me who is coming over,”“A surprise means you cannot...” she interrupted him before he completed his statement. “...means you cannot ask or know about it until it happens and that's why it's a surprise, mama. You’ve said that like a hundred times now,”“That’s because you’ve asked the same question a hundred times now,”“Does that even count?” “Not when you asked exactly the same way you’ve been asking,” he said and she scoffed. “We’re getting more decor though!” she ascertained. “You don’t need to put in this much effort, you know?”“It’s still new year eve. You don't wanna start afresh in a boring apart

THE LETTERMaria tried her best to muffle her laughter since if she didn't, it’d echo throughout the room and that would only make Reid more furious. She watched as Reid pulled at the decorations which he didn't support to put up as a form of beautification. He was never a fan of that to start with and now, he needed to go through the struggle of bringing them all down. “You know you were meant to do this all by yourself, right?” he asked with his hands rested on his waist. He saw the traces of laughter on Maria’s face as he turned to far her even though she tried as much as possible to pull a serious look. He furrowed his eyebrow and walked toward her. “Why?” she said back to him and was looking awkward as he got closer. “What’s that on your face?” he asked with a little serious look that made Maria feel the seriousness in the air. “What?” she asked as she rubbed her face to check for anything odd. By now, she was as well wearing a serious look to match the tension. “The laugh
