Madilim na ang gabi. Walang hirap akong bumaba mula sa balkonahe ng aking kwarto samantalang nasa taas pa rin si Desmond mukhang tulala."What now?" I hissed. "They might caught us. Hurry up!" I gestured my hand and it make him snap back to his consciousness. "You aren't spiderwoman, aren't you?" he asked, trying his best to whisper against his baritone voice.I looked at him in a boredom. "I've been doing these stuffs for years," I informed.He shook his head. "You could be a great robber someday," he commented and started taking his both feet down the terrace."No thanks," I murmured but not enough to reach his ears. Instead, I saw him took a huge gulp while staring at the ground.Hindi naman talaga ganoon kahirap bumaba dahil sa mga bintanang sa baba nito. Pangatlong palapag lang din ang aking kwarto.I sighed and crossed my arms. I tapped my foot in impatience while waiting for him to fully reach the ground. Pero napatigil sa pag-hakbang pababa. "I'

"That dress looks good in you," his deep voice uttered.I could see Desmond's reflection from here. He's observing me, lying on my bed with his both arms pillowed his head, together with a playful smirk lingered on his face.Nakatalikod ako sa kan'ya ngayon, kalahating nagtatanghal ng mga ipit mula sa buhok at kalahating sinasabunutan ang sarili habang nakaharap sa salamin. My whole face was still painted with embarrassment and I flushed even more with his sudden compliment.I cleared my throat. "Thanks."A part of me wants to puke. Seriously? 'Thanks?!' Oh, fvck. I can't even figure out if he really mean it, or he's just being sarcastic!I blinked. "What are you doing here, anyway?" I asked, changing the topic. "Nevermind that question. I know Dad sent you here." I fake a laughed and got choked with my own saliva. I awkwardly cleared my throat once again."He didn't." He shook his head. "I went here with my o

Living here in Italia brought me into a great adjustment again. Everyone was treating me like a crappy princess. I have to stay here inside this fvcking mansion where maids and butlers are everywhere, and go with stupid bodyguards if I'll be going outdoors.I hate it, but must to bare with it. I have to bare with these stupid closet of dresses and girly pairs of shoe that grandma brought for me. Ayaw nila akong umakto na parang lalaki at ayaw na ayaw nilang magmura ako na parang hindi babae. They're fvcking conservative, protective, and above all, dramatic.But in the midst adjusting, I found myself taking my old stuffs away. I forgot what alcohol tasted like. I forgot the noise of clubs sounds like, and so as the scent of cigarettes enters my nostrils. I am now preferred staying my room, reading books, and scroll on social media--things I lately called as stupidly, girly stuffs. I know, it's bullshit. But I getting used to it.

We went back to our usual quiet state. No one is dared to talks, nor start a conversation. Kung gaano s'ya kaingay kanina ay ganoon rin s'ya katahimik ngayon. I can sense how speed he drive is, it was different from its usual rate. It was all sign of madness. His eyebrows didn't also separated away from each other, since we departed that place. It confused me. He should be thankful for I'll be going away from him, right? Because I am complicated and stubborn. I'm a huge pain in the ass. At nagawa ko pa s'yang ipahamak. Inihinto n'ya ang sasakyan nang makarating kami sa loob ng gate. Ibinuka ko ang aking labi, akmang magsasalita at kausapin s'ya ngunit agad n'ya akong tinalikuran at pabagsak na isinara ang pinto.Natulala ako nang ilang minuto bago itinikom muli ang nakaawang labi.I let out a heavy sigh.I assumed he will assist me, just like what he did on the hospital. But I was wrong. Akala ko s'ya ulit magtutulak ng wheelchair ko hanggang kwa

We silently drove along the city's highway. I am right behind him in the passenger seat while his eyes focused on the road. He's driving. I throw him glance sometimes, and I'm afraid he might notice it.We were heading towards the hospital, just like what he have said last night. That's why I quickly prepared myself as I woke up, and no, I am not excited. Really. I turned my gaze back in the side mirror and felt a sudden suspense as I saw the same, white Mustang after us. It sounds following us since earlier.I may be too paranoid, so I shrugged that thought off and focused my gaze to other direction.We reached the hospital and he helped me out of the car. I wandered my eyes in the surroundings, searching for the Mustang who was following us. "Is there something bothering you?" Desmond asked from my behind.I can no longer see any signs of the suspicious car, so I sigh in relief. "No, nothing. Let's go--oh, fvc

It was exactly midnight as I went back home.My whole body was in sore. My left leg, there was a cloth attached to it to stop the blood from flowing, and have fractured knee.I had also tons of small cuts in my arms, a single cut on my neck. My right palm had the long but not so deep cut due to clutching those two-sided blade weapon earlier. And the rest are bruises.Good thing is, I can still drive home, and I am still alive. The high-pitched, turquoise-headed bitch is also breathing before I left her lying in the ring.I reached my destination. I could see the guard opens the gate as I enters and proceed to the garage.The cold breeze of midnight air touches my skin as I open the car's door. I winced in a great pain. I could feel the sore in my left leg as I finally moved out of the car.The other guard suddenly appeared in front of me. "Ma'am, anong nangyari? Bakit ang dami mong--patay...""Where is Desmond?
