Motel Of The Mysteries

My brother calls me his princess and transfers money to me as allowance; his wife-to-be misunderstands and thinks I'm his secret lover. She crashes my new apartment, which I've lovingly decorated, with a group of friends and family. "I can't believe you're someone's secret lover when you're so young! I'll teach you a lesson on your parents' behalf! I'm going to spread your illicit relationship online so your teachers and classmates will all know how shameless you are!" They trash my new apartment and rip my clothes off. Then, they make sure to get my student ID in the scene as they record me getting bullied. My brother rushes over, his eyes red and bloodshot. "Have you guys lost your mind? How dare you bully my sister!"

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. If come inside of my heart you can only see words saying ‘end of passion’ because love is a killing potion.

 Mataman ko lamang siyang pinagmamasdan mula rito, sa may ‘di kalayuan. Batid ko na kanina pa siya sa akin naghihintay.  Halata ang labis na pagkainip na mababanaag sa kaniyang hapong mukha, ngunit sadyang hindi ko magawang maihakbang ang aking mga paa palapit sa kaniya… hindi ko pa kaya.  Alam ko, na sa sandaling gawin ko ang bagay na iyon ay ito na rin ang magiging simula nang tuluyan kong paglimot sa kaniya— na matagal ko na sanang ginawa.      ●  SA edad labing-anim, labis na nasaktan ang murang puso ni Cinderella, nang malaman nito na ang lalaking lubos n’yang hinahangaan ay may napupusuan na palang iba.  Dahil sa nangyari, isinumpa niya sa sarili na hinding-hindi na siya muling iibig pa.
