Parang May Buhangin Sa Mata Novels & Stories

nanlaki ang mata nilang pareho nang bigla na lamang natanggal ang tuwalya nito. Holy shittt! My virgin eyes!

Feeling ko tuloy ay may bigla na lang na magpapakitang manananggal sa harapan namin at sasakmalin kami. Hindi na makapasok ang sinag ng haring araw dahil tinatakpan ito ng mga naglalakihang kahoy kaya medyo madilim na sa paligid. Sa takot ko ay nakapikit ang mga mata ko hanggang sa maramdaman kong huminto ulit ang sinasakyan namin. Nandito na kaya kami? Unti-unti kong iminulat ang mga mata ko at hindi ko na napigilang mapasinghap ng malakas ng makita ko ang hinintuan namin.

Megra I stare at my reflection in the mirror, barely recognising the woman staring back. My right eye is swollen shut, a hideous purple-black hue spreading around it. The pain is relentless, throbbing with every heartbeat. I dab makeup over the bruised skin, but the dark discoloration is impossible to fully cover. Each touch is a reminder of Conor's latest outburst—a fresh wave of anger and hatred rising within me.

Hanggang sa nakatulugan ko na ang mga hindi kanais-nais na isiping 'yon. Naalimpungatan ako ng maramdaman kong may yumuyugyog sa aking balikat kaya naman dahan-dahan akong nagmulat kahit pakiramdam ko ay sobrang bigat ng talukap ng aking mga mata. "Halika na! Sa kuwarto ka na matulog!" Aniya na puno ng sensiridad ang tinig.

Napaisip ako. Hindi ko naman talaga gaanong tanda ang itsura noong babae pero yung mata niya, talagang nakakuha ng atens’yon ko noong gabing ‘yon. Sobrang lasing ako no’n pero natatandaan kong may kakaiba sa mga mata niya. Pati labi niya natatandaan ko, pero kapag inaalala ko ang buong mukha, wala akong makita kung hindi malabong imahe ng isang babaeng maganda . . . at maliit.

Sa Aking Mga Mata “Hinahawi ako ng mga nagliliparang buhangin ng disyerto, napupuwing sa 'di maunawaang butil ng mga bago. Nagdidiliryo sa isang larawang di malinaw kung ano, sumasagwan sa tuyot na sapa at nangingisda ng sagot sa malamyang ilat." Mula sa mga mata ng isang bata.

I awoke to a new morning with golden sun rays blinding my eyes and a heavy weight pressing down upon my waist. It feels like I'm going to be crushed by the ton of weight on me, so I try to shake it off, moving side to side but it doesn't work. What is this? Paranoid I gather myself and open my eyes, with each blink, an unfamiliar scene seems to greet me and I'm confused but wait till my eyes could properly settle down.

The glare of the morning sun streamed through the window, making me squint my eyes. Yawning, I sat up and shook my head to clear out the last of my sleep, eyes feeling heavy. That’s what happens when you cry for hours to no end. A sharp voice inside reminded me.

I stood up, and went to my vanity, I grab a cotton and try to remove it, but it was no use, it was still there, intact, like a glue. I was still standing, thinking of what to do, but my view became blurry, and in just a moment, I feel a burning sensation on my both eyes. “Ahh!” my legs weakened, that I can’t feel it already, I heard a loud thud, and my body ache for a while, but the pain on my eyes takes over, “Fuck, fuck!” I can’t describe the pain, I wanted to pull off my eyeballs, and put it on a cold water. Ah! Fuck! Damn, it’s fucking painful!

Agad na napapaarko uli ang kilay ko when she throw me a warning look while she kept glancing at the thing behind me while she kept blinking her eyes like she was having an epileptic episode right now. Buang na ba ang babaeng 'to?? "May problema ba sa mga mata mo ngayon, Suzy?" I asked her in confusion. She didn't answered and just continued blinking her eyes. Kaya naman Napapailing nalang ako sa kanya. "Tsk, tsk, tsk.. Mukhang kailangan mo na ngang ipacheck up yang mga mata mo ngayon. Mukhang----" "Dahil mukhang kilala kita."
