Because I Could Not Stop For Death Novels & Stories

"I will die a thousand deaths just to bring you back. I won't just surrender you to the land of the dead." Ano raw? Tiningnan niya ako. Nangingilid na nanaman sa luha ang mga mata niya. "This is what you call turning the impossible to possible. Death can't stop me, can't even defy me. That the death personified can control what's around him." Ang gulo niya ha?

Nilingon ko siya at sinamaan ng tingin, "I should be the one asking you that! Are you crazy? Crazy enough to let yourself die in the middle of the road?! Kung ganun naman pala, wag mo akong isama sa pagpapakamatay mo! I got so many lives to save, mamatay ka mag-isa mo!" Humalukipkip ako at diniretso ang tingin ko sa harapan. Wala akong choice dahil hindi naman ako pwedeng bumaba dito dahil bawal ang tao rito. Masyadong mabibilis ang sasakyan na dumadaan dito kaya delikado ang tumawid o maglakad man lang dito. He sighed, "I'm sorry."

Dali-dali akong sumakay ng elevator at bumaba hanggang parking lot, baka naroon pa siya. Nang makarating ay natigilan ako nang makitang papalayo na ang sasakyan ni Asap hanggang sa mawala na ito sa paningin ko. "Why am I trying to stop him?" mahina kong bulong habang ang tingin ay naroon parin sa dinaanan ni Asap. "Dapat masaya ako. Wala ng pesteng manggugulo. So...why am I here to stop?" agad akong umiling. Yeah right, dumating na rin ang matagal kong hinihintay.

"Listen woman, I normally don't care about what people do with their lives. But I happen to pass by and I saw you, and I had the feeling to want to stop you. If that alone is not a reason for you not to die tonight then go just die." And just like that he left me. **

Nagkibit lamang siya ng balikat pagkatapos ay nauna nang bumaba ng hagdan. Saglit kong inayos ang aking sarili at pagkatapos ay binitbit ko ang bag ko na basta ko na lamang inilapag kanina sa semento at mabilis na sumunod kay Luke. Hindi pa man ako nakakaapak sa unang baitang ng hagdan pababa ay bigla na lamang akong napahinto sa paglalakad. My vision of people's death appeared again. And this time, I don't want to admit but the person who will die next made me worried so much. Because the person that I saw in my vision was the guy who was with me just now. It's Luke.

If I slowed down now, they’d catch me again—and I wasn’t letting that happen. Hindi ko puwedeng sayangin ang pagkakataong ’to. Nakalabas na ako—at hinding-hindi ko na gustong bumalik sa impyernong ’yon! I kept running even though I could barely feel my legs anymore. But then I suddenly stopped when I realized there was no more ground beneath my feet. My eyes went wide in shock. “Sh*t—!”

So,it's just normal you forget about it and just be thankful that you have pulled it just the right time. But why is the sudden drop on my stomach.The pressure on my lungs? The spreading virus on my mind that's keeping me awake right now. Why those words suddenly just don't sound right? I'm perfectly inlove with the sunset because it means another day—the one who will be finished and the other that will start soon.It's a happy pill i've known since i was little.It always bring me joy everytime i get to see that ...but not earlier.The sun just goes down immediately, i don't have time to watch for it slowly fades.I didn't get to see the dark slowly creeping in.All i have known is the awful sou

' sigaw ko end of flashback umiiyak na pala ako habang nagkukwento at kita ko na maging sila ay nangingilid na ang luha " queen died because of me. and i cant forgive myself kahit ilanh taon na ang lumipas." sabe ko pa. kinapitan namab ako ni dee sa balikat. " queen died because of king. dont blame yourself." sabe nito " no dee, kung hindi ako nagtaksil hindi sana sya mamamatay." sabe ko naman.

I am pre-occupied. Bakit hindi ko sila makita? Bakit hindi? Nagtatago kaya sila? Bakit ayaw nilang magpakita? Bakit... hindi ako makahinga? Teka, anong nangyayari? Breathe Synecdoche, Breathe. Hinahabol ko ang hininga ko. I inhaled. Then exhaled. and then I opened my eyes. There, I see no flying letters and jumbled words but someone else.

“You can cut all the flowers but you cannot keep spring from coming." - Pablo Neruda. It was one of the days when the sun decided to withhold its light to the earth. The day was dull and gloomy. A sea of clouds was covering the afternoon sky. Jhaz couldn’t ask for a better day than this. She could feel the slight cold brought by the afternoon wind. For her, it was the perfect weather to go to the cemetery to visit Tri’s grave. She wasn’t a fan of a bright and sunny day so today’s climate was perfect.
