Quinn{'Here we are, trapped in the amber of the moment. There is no why.'}A noise woke me up from my dreamless sleep. As soon as I opened my eyes, I scanned my room and rubbed my eyes from my own drowsiness. It didn't take too long to realize that Risa was talking to Uncle Elric who seemed so upset about something. I sat up and they tilted their head at me once they sensed that I woke up from their loud murmuring. Risa bent her lips upward, smiling sweetly at me but it looked like she was faking it while Uncle Elric was scowling as he observed the two of us. I must be smiling back at her or maybe I was grinning too much. I didn't know how the hell she got more beautiful in each passing second. Or how she got more gorgeous in each millisecond."So what's up?" I started, sitting at the edge of the bed. I didn't realize that I slept for hours because I noticed that the sky was getting darker from my window, hiding the light autumn radiant of the sky from above.Uncle Elric cleared

{'For my part, I prefer my heart to be broken. It is so lovely, dawn-kaleidoscopic within the crack.'}Long-distance relationship? Would I able to endure it? Of course! Distance might suck but as long as you love the person, everything is going to be all right, right?Why did it had come to this? Oh right! This man appeared without notice, taking away my angel from me. To top it all off, that Krause was also claiming that my father is gay. I clearly knew that he was just making up stories but it bothered me so much. I wasn't really against the idea but it kinda ruined my mind because I could see that my father was very much in love with my Mom. I mean, yeah, whatever. Krause was just bluffing!Placing my lappie on my lap, I hovered my fingers over the keyboard and typed 'How to survive in a long-distance relationship?.' A numerous site was recommended but I just stared at them before I shut my laptop in frustration."What are you doing?" a familiar voice asked behind me and I almost j

{'I became insane with long intervals of horrible sanity.'}Gripping my wheel hard, I drove faster like a madwoman. Hitting the road as if I was in a race, I couldn't help but feel hurt about this morning when Quinn left me without saying goodbye. There were hundreds of questions floating in my mind right now. Was she angry about what happened last night or she feels disappointed because she realized I'm not good in bed? But that was nonsense. We did it a couple of times until we fell asleep together so I wondered why she left me alone in our beach house this morning.Last night was so seamless for me and flashes of memories came abruptly into my mind as I caressed the angel wings pendant she gave me. The way she touched me was the gentlest feeling I've ever felt. The way she kissed me was so passionate and my heart never ended to burn in intensity. I was in a far-reaching pleasure that I almost died in unbroken enchantment.However, waking up without her in my arms felt so lonely and

Trigger Warning: Read at your own risk.{'The worst enemy is memories.'}QuinnThe sound of the ticking clock softly caressed my ear—— never stopping. Timeless and eternally like my throbbing heart inside my chest. My eyes flickered open and I saw myself standing in the middle of a grandiose foyer. The surroundings felt neutral and miserable as the nightshade slipped outside through the glass window, overcasting my form tremendously. Tilting my head up, the light of the chandelier in the center of the ceiling was the only thing that breaks against the darkness.It was like a dream—— or memories.Deliberately, my eyes landed on a form, standing in the middle of the grand staircase. It was a little girl, gazing back at me. Her eyes were untainted and innocent as they gleamed against the light. She stepped down one at a time, still, her forestry gaze not leaving mine. The hue of her braided hair was blonde as mine as it draped over the princess-like floral dress she was wearing.As she w

Quinn{'The only thing we have to fear is fear itself--nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance.'}I had to do it.I had to tell her the truth. They needed to go away from here or that bastard would pull them in his web of wicked games. I wanted her to leave, away from here—— away from danger, even if it means losing her.Despite I had successfully pushed Risa away, hearing those painful words unbuckled my knees as I slid my back against the door, embracing myself together and sobbing in agony. I didn't want her to know what I really was but I knew such desire wouldn't do any good for the both of us because eventually, she would find out. I was just so afraid to the point I was fooling myself.Freak, I thought to myself. Maybe I truly deserved that insult because instead of embracing it, I kept it under my sweet fake personality. I deserved her resentment because I broke our promises to each other, concealing the truth I
