The Glass Is Half Full Mga Nobela at Kwento

Tulala lang ako sa kanyang mukha habang nagsasalita siya and I can feel and sense na calmness in his heart. “An hourglass symbolizes the idea of inevitability, that all of the happenings in our life run on cycles, and although we do have choices in our life, there are some cycles that just cannot be stopped.” Lumingon siya sa akin. He is smiling at me pero kita ko sa kanyang mga mata ang lungkot. I know that he is referring to his brother. “It also indicates the balance and cycle of life. When the other side of the glass is empty it means someone just died, and when you flid the other side of the glass, it means that a new life was born.”

reklamo nito. "Fine!" Nag salin na ako sa wine glass nito at nilagok. Grabe parang walang lasang alcoholic drink ang wine na 'to. Talagang pang ladies wine nga lang. "Ikaw ayaw mo talaga?" alok ko dito. "Thanks na lang lov, bawal talaga." wika nito. "Fine! Sige, tapusin ko lang 'tong half bottle uwe ko na lang ang half." wika ko.

Nandito kami sa labas ng yate nakaupo sa lapag sa pinakadulo ng nguso ng yate. A glass of orange juice was offered while a glass of wine was held in his hand. I was about to reach for the wine glass when he stretched his hand away from me. “Be good. Drink this now, and later you'll take vitamins after we eat." On rare occasions, his voice is as tranquil as the ocean.

Muli niyang hinawakan ang wine glass. “Gusto ko sanang uminom ng todo kaya lang sensitive ang tiyan ko kapag napaparami ng alak. Pero para po sa inyong lahat, ikakalahati ko ang wine glass na ito. Sigurado naman akong mga gentleman kayo na kapag nagsuka ako dito ay ihahatid niyo ako sa hospital.”

May hawak pa itong glass wine sa kanang kamay. Hindi siya nakapagsalita agad habang nakatitig sa maganda nitong mukha. Makinis ito, maputi, maaring pagkamalang isang anghel dahil sa maamo nitong mukha, pero kung gaano kaamo ang mukha nito, ganoon din kasama ang tingin na ipinupukol nito sa kaniya. Makikitaan ng pang-uuyam ang mga labi nito habang tinititigan siya mula ulo hanggang paa.

reklamo pa niya habang pinupunasan ang kanyang mga labi. "You shouldn't emptied your wine, ano ka ba?" saway nito ng makita na ang lahat ng inabot na wine glasses sa kanya ay halos naubos niya. "You shouldn't emptied these," inagaw nito ang hawak na wine glass sa kanya.

“I’m okay.” She didn’t know how long she could mask her pain through a smile. She felt helpless. Kinuha niya ang glass sa gilid at ininom ang laman na wine nun sa isang lagukan. GREY’s jaw dropped when he saw Zariyah drink the wine in her glass in just one gulp. Akala mo’y parang uminom lang ito ng tubig sa baso. “Hey!” saway niya rito. Zariyah had already emptied her glass. “Hindi yan tubig. That’s wine,” paalala niya rito.

Nagtatakang tanong ni Nate. Napansin ko rin ang paglapit ng mga bodyguard nito pero hindi naman nagpahalata ang mga ito. "Maybe, the glass is not that good when it was moulded. It needs a high temperature to liquidized a sand." Sagot ko na lang. Napangiti naman si Nate sa naging sagot ko. "It's a wonder that you did not freak out with what happened." Saad nito sa akin. I smirked. "A broken glass is not enough to surprise me." Sagot ko na lang rito.

reklamo ko agad. "That glass is one-way, don't worry. You can see the outside, but they can only see their reflection," paliwanag niya, halatang nawawalan na naman ng pasensya sa tanong ko. "Now, move, before I lose my temper."

Ito mismo ang nagsalin ng wine sa mga wine glasss nila. She immediately contained her emotions as she watched him fill her wine glass with the drink. Ayaw niyang ipahalata rito how relieved she was na ito mismo ang nagsabi na maari na siyang umuwi. When he's done filling their glasses, he lifted his gaze on the night sky. "It's a beautiful night isn't it?" he said admirably.
