The Forbidden City 소설 & 이야기

“We are forbidden, Liam…" "We are not forbidden, Fiona. Yes we made a mistake but it doesn't mean we cannot be happy together—" "Yes we are, Liam! Hanggat nasa ganitong sitwasyon tayo. Hangga’t hindi natin hinaharap ang lahat. Hanggat hindi tayo napapatawad ni Ken-" "Puro ka Ken Fiel. I told you, he let you go already. Pinaubaya ka niya sa akin-" "Pero bawal pa rin tayo. You break your friendship rule just because of me. At lalong-lalo na reputasyon mo ang nakasalalay rito!"

Ang sarap pakinggan na gusto akong makilala ng idolo ko at may tsansa pa na ipasok ako nito sa Art School na tinatayo niya. But then, I remember my situation. Suddenly, my excitement died down. Oo nga pala. I almost forgot my situation because of my excitement. Nag-iwas ako ng tingin. “But…I...I don't think my parents will allow me, Tristan. You know them,” ani ko. I'm sure of it. Hindi ako papayagan nila Dad. Allowing me to go to New York and meet Edna Jimenez is like allowing me to pursue Arts. Ayaw nila no'n.

Kasama rin nila sina Luiz, ang mga magulang nito, at ilang bodyguards na tahimik lamang na sumusunod sa kanila. Nagpunta sila sa isang sikat na shopping district. Puno ng ilaw, mga tindahan, at masasayang tao ang paligid. Nakangiti si Czyrie habang hawak ang braso ni Luiz. "Tingnan mo 'yon, ang ganda ng mga display," masayang sabi niya. Ngumiti si Luiz at hinalikan ang noo nito. "Kung gusto mo, bibilhin ko lahat."

“So am I.” The words stayed between us long after they were said. Heavy. Unfinished. Dangerous in the quietest way possible. For a moment, neither of us moved. The city lights beyond the balcony blurred softly against the darkness, the cold night air brushing against my skin, but none of it grounded me the way it should have. Because Adrian was still standing there. Still looking at me like leaving was the last thing he wanted to do. And maybe that was the problem. Maybe we both stayed too long.

Mungkahi ni Harold Corpuz. "Oo." Tumango si Jett Ejercito. Apocalypse Forbidden Land, ito ay isang lugar kung saan walang sinuman ang kuwalipikadong pumunta ng basta-basta. Maliban sa mga pinuno ng apat na gate at tatlong bulwagan, sinumang lilitaw sa kalooban ay pagbabarilin hanggang mamatay. Ito ang unang tuntunin ng Apocalypse. Walang sinuman nangahas na labagin ito, dahil dito Sa likod ng mga alituntunin ay ang dugo ng hindi mabilang na mga taong mausisa.

Pumihit si Vhendice at iniwan siya sa kanyang kinatatayuan. Masusing pinagmamasdan niya ang buong siyudad. Nakikita niya ang mga landmarks na sinabi ng agent. The high-rise buildings situated in each cardinal point of the city. The City of Nephilims. A privately owned, fast-growing city officially developed and run by the Andromidas under the reign of Hheven. For someone like her who is a complete stranger, this city is a forbidden place to stay.

It is called Forbidden because everything happened inside the forest is sinful, secretly, liberated, tempting and very attractive. People who'll go there is like living in hell in a different ways because it will give pleasure and happiness. They offered not only those tempting and sinful they also provide excitement and joyful experience. You know why? They have anything there. If you want to climb at the mountain(hiking), fishing, zip lines, etc. You can have it all. They also have a very exciting rides there like what you see in Enchanted Kingdom, Everland Theme park, Star City and Disneyland. But there's only one rule.

Nang makapasok ako sa loob ay agad kong nilibot ang aking mga mata sa apat na sulok ng club upang hanapin si Heaven. I know her cousin very well. This club is a private property and an elite club for businessman, and elite people. Hindi ka makakapasok sa lugar na ito kapag wala kang invitation galing sa mga members dito at sobrang higpit ng mga security ng club na ito.

Nanginginig ang kamay ko nang hawakan ko ang door handle at sumunod sa loob. At doon, tuluyan akong napatigil. Parang ibang mundo ang sumalubong sa akin. Napakalaki ng kwarto. Mas malaki pa kaysa sa buong bahay namin sa probinsya. Ang makintab na sahig, ang mamahaling chandelier, ang malalaking bintanang nagbibigay ng tanawin ng buong siyudad—lahat ng ito ay parang patunay kung gaano kalayo ang agwat ng mundo namin.

"Basta ba around downtown area lang." "Of course." I searched for a place. Actually, may list na 'ko ng places na gusto kong puntahan but those were outside the city. I saved it for Troy and I. Hindi naman kasi kami nakakagala around the City. Mahirap na. After what felt like an hour of searching ay nakahanap na rin ako. It was a dog cafe downtown. Kakabukas lang 'non kaya hindi ko pa napupuntahan. "Sure ka diyan?" Lio asked. "Mangangamoy aso ka pag-uwi."
