Endless. Forever.

No more endings. Just forever.

Two weeks later -Music plays – Music resonates throughout my room, barely loud enough to drown out my thoughts. Every aching chord stung, and the comfort of my blanket wasn’t enough to replace her warmth on my skin. Each time I open my phone, I find myself aimlessly scrolling through our old messages and looking at her posts. Like a ghost unable to move on, I see hints of her everywhere I look. On my walls, in my gallery, in my sketchbooks, even the ballad playing now sounds eerily like her guitar. I hate how everything reminds me of her. Finding myself stuck in delusions, dreams and daydreams, that she’ll come to my window as usual and apologise. It’s been two weeks, and she hasn’t bothered

Hininaan ko ng boses ko, “Lu, mamaya nalang tawagan ulit kita—“ “Tanga, minsan nalang sila nagpapa second batch ng audition. Nakiusyoso nga ako sa isang kaklase ko sa stem eh. ‘Magsulat ka na dun bukas o ako nalang kaya? I’m sure ‘di naman magtataka kuya mo kung ako magsusulat—“ I swear I am panicking! “T teka Lu mamaya nalang natin pagusapan—“ “Ba’t ka ba bumubulong? Baka marinig ng Mommy mo at ni Eisa?

Communication flickers back to life across the galaxy, minds reeling from the auditory assault. Success. Of a kind. The cost is eternal. The Cage, the heart of reality, now constantly emits this faint, pervasive music. The Song of the Cage. It is the sound of perfect order fused with wild chaos, of hatred woven with love, of enduring silence wrapped in endless scream. It is beautiful. And it bends the mind. Those who listen too long… they don’t go mad in a screaming way. They become obsessed. They hear layers no one else can. They find meaning in the dissonance.

Bridge (Adam): I feel you in the morning light, In the stars that shine so bright, You're my endless fight, In the darkness, you're my light. Chorus (Both): Forever in our hearts, you stay, A love that time can't take away, You're the song we sing, In every tear, in everything.

Grant will definitely divorce you if you do so.” Immediately after, I heard Hall
