The Rebellious Stepdaughter of Timothy Grey
I knew a tear would fall if I didn’t stop myself from remembering too much.
Pero bago pa ako tuluyang lamunin ng alaala, may napansin akong isang kahon sa pinaka-ilalim. It caught my attention because it was the simplest.
No ribbon, no brand, just a matte black box with my name written in Timothy’s neat handwriting.
Binuksan ko iyon.
Inside was a leather journal, minimalist and hand-bound. The pages were thick and cream-colored, and when I flipped through it, may nakaipit sa gitna. It was an engraved brass bookmark that said, “Write something that matters.”
