Coincidence I Think Not Novels & Stories

This is the perfect timing we have been waiting for. But the excitement was tempered by a sense of unease, a nagging feeling of apprehension. The timing was suspect, the coincidence too perfect. It felt almost too good to be true, a cruel twist of fate, a deceptive distraction from the impending danger. Was this a genuine opportunity, a stroke of luck, a chance to escape the shadow of Niccolo’s revenge? Or was it a trap, a calculated move, a way to lure me into a false sense of security?

wika ng staff sabay abot ng susi sa kanya at tulad ng pagkikita nilang muli ni Dave ay ang parehong numero ng k’wartong kanyang tutuluyan. “Do you believe in fate, or do you believe everything is just a coincidence?” tanong niya sa babaeng nag-abot sa kanya ng susi na siya niyang tinignan nang husto Napakunot ng noo ang babaeng nasa kanyang harapan ngunit sinagot pa rin nito ang tanong ni Anna. “I don’t believe in fate, nor do I believe in things happening exactly as they did in the past, or in so-called coincidences. I only believe that events took place at an unexpected time and location.”

Hanggang walang ebidensiya, hindi siya aamin. Ngumiti ang babaen kausap niya, saka tiningnan siya mula ulo hanggang paa ng ilang ulit, saka ito nagbitiw ng salita, "Kung hindi mo ginawa, paano magiging ganoon kalaking coincidence? Nangyari lahat iyon sa loob ng kalahating taon." Bahagyang nataranta si Monette, kinagat ang labi saka ito sinagot, "Paano ko malalaman kung kailan nangyari ang mga iyon? Hindi ko naman sila pinapansin."

Habang nagsisimula ang test drive sa track, tahimik na pinagmasdan ni Nevaeh ang lalaking nasa tabi niya. Mas lalo niyang pinagdugtong-dugtong sa isip ang lahat ng mga pangyayaring hindi niya maintindihan nitong mga nakaraang taon. At habang mas iniisip niya iyon, mas marami siyang napapansing mga coincidence na tila hindi na maaaring tawaging coincidence.

Kulang yata ako sa vitamins. Nagising ako ng alas siyete ng gabi. Lalabas sana ako upang kumain sa restaurant nitong hotel nang muli ay nagpang-abot kami ni Dwight sa loob ng elevator. Agad siyang natawa pagkakita sa akin. “Coincidence o destiny? You decide,” sabay halakhak niya. Agad ko siyang sinimangutan saka ako pumasok sa loob ng elevator. Anong coincidence at destiny pinagsasasabi niya?

H******n ni Sebastian ang kanyang kamay. Kahit na paano ay gumanda ang kanyang pakiramdam dahil doon. Tahimik nilang tinapos ang pelikula. If Tom had learned anything, it was that you can't describe great cosmic significance to a simple earthly event. Coincidence, that's all anything ever is. Nothing more than coincidence. Tom had finally learned there are no miracles, there's no such thing as fate, nothing is meant to be. He knew, he was sure of it now...

She asked accusingly. I sighed. "Auntie it was a coincidence. Lumabas lang ako saglit para magpahangin. Coincidence na lumabas din si Lev para magpahangin. We talked about random things at yun na yun! Wala kaming ginawang kababoyan kung 'yun man ang iniisip mo." "You shouldn't have been there. Sana pumasok ka nalang nung nakita mo siyang lumabas. It was better for everyone," Pigil-galit niyang sabi.
