I am staring at the city lights while having a smoke. It’s been a while since the last time I stayed in this condo. “Mist,” the man called me and I just gave him a boring look. “I want—” “Us back again?” sarkastiko kong sabi, tumango siya kaya tumawa ako. “Sorry, but killing is now my passion, so kill that love of yours.” “Isn’t it love is your passion?” naiiyak na sabi niya. “People change, and I ended that passion.” Iniwan ko na siya sa veranda saka nagtungo sa kwarto nag-ayos ng damit isinuot ang agent suit. Again, I am ready to kill. “Love? What the heck is that, I won’t beg, even if he does, hindi na ako papasok sa mundong yon, that place is chaotic, it is poisonous, venomous that can make you feel ill and numb.” Zyra Mist Alejandro, too tired of loving.

Nagpunta lang naman si Solana sa bar para magsaya, pero bigla na lamang nagtagpo ang kanilang landas sa hindi inaasahang pagkatataon.

Never nakipagbiruan si Demetrius sa kung kanino lalo na kung usaping kasal. He doesn’t know why he’s being possessive when it comes to Solana. Alam niyang wala siyang gusto rito, pero hindi niya mailihis ang kaniyang mga mata sa kung kanino sa tuwing nasa paligid niya ang dalaga. Ultimo sa pagpikit niya ng kaniyang mga mata, ang dalaga lang ang kaniyang nakikita. “You’ll marry me whether you like it or not,” he mumbled dangerously. Before the ring made its way to finally meet his subjects, deception came first because of Lysander Demetrius Russo—a man who doesn’t accept rejection as an answer.
