Zevi“Are you sure you're okay, Lex?” Raya whispered after the whole service.Tumango ako bilang tugon sa kanya at inayos ang sarili. Mugto ang mata ko dahil sa mga luha simula kanina. Dumeretso agad ako sa banyo at hinila si Raya.After the worship, there was a short message and the topic was about ‘Forgiveness’. It left my heart troubled as I was affected by the words I heard that corrected me‘The forgiveness not to take that person's offense in the future. The quote “Forgive and forget,” means that you forgive but you don't want anything to do with that person or you don't want to see him or her. Chances are you haven't really forgiven the person. Forgiveness is letting go of that person's mistake and letting go of the past. If sometimes the hurt still comes back I would say it is normal. It is another chance you process with God.’Those are the words that the preacher had said and it struck me. It eventually made me think of what my dad had done to my family.‘Maybe that is the r

SolaceI tried my best not to think about what Colton had said. But thoughts began to surface as time passed. He excused himself because they had basketball practice from ten in the morning till twelve in the afternoon. I was left alone in the library for a few minutes before I decided to leave. Inayos ko ang mga gamit ko bago lumabas ng library. Maraming estudyante ang nagkwekwentuhan at nagtatawanan sa hallway ng dumaan ako. Napatingin ako sa relo ko at napansin na masyado pang maaga para umuwi. Natanaw ko ang maraming estudyante na nakatambay sa mga benches na nasa paligid ng University paglabas ko ng main function hall. May klase pa kaya ang mga pinsan ko?As I was walking my phone vibrated and as I opened my phone, three messages appeared. It was from Kuya Zaxton, Kuya Levi, and Luke.Kuya Zaxton:I'll fetch you and the girls later. We will go somewhere.Kuya Levi:Where are you? Come to the basketball court once you're done.Luke:Do you have classes at 3pm? Because I want to

VersesNagising ako sa maingay na katok mula salabas ng pintuan ko. Nakakunot noo akong bumangon sa higaan at tamad na naglakad papunta sa pintuan. Binuksan ko iyon at bumungad si Kuya Leon na mukhang maagang may pupuntahan. He was wearing a white polo paired with a black slacks. He also fixed her hair and he was holding his tuxedo on his right arm.My eyes widened and blinked twice.'Anong nakain ni Kuya at bakit ang aga niya naman na pomorma ngayon?' "Good morning princess, how's your sleep?" ginulo niya ng kaunti ang aking buhok dahilan para sumama ang mood ko."Aww, bakit mo ba ako ginising kuya. It's too early!" pagmamaktol na sabi ko. If only he knew that I stayed up late to finish my assignments after two hours of being preoccupied about the song.Paulit-ulit kong naririnig ang boses ni Luke sa isipan ko at hindi ko alam kung bakit."I wake you up because Levi told me you have class at seven." Pinigilan ko ang sarili ko na hampasin si Kuya. Ayokong sirain ang mode niya dahi

Lyrics"Congratulations cousins!" bati ni Ate Estelle kina Kuya.Natapos ang laro nila kuya Levi at tatlong puntos ang lamang nila laban sa mga players na mula sa UP Cebu. Hinintay namin sila sa labas ng court kung saan naroon ang kotse nila kuya para makabihis sila.Nagkaroon daw ng tensyon kanina bago kami makabalik ni Raya dahil kay Thor. Muntik na niyang masapak ang isang player mula sa kabilang kampo dahil sa malagkit na titig kay Shivani. Buti na lamang ay agad na inawat nila Theo kanina kasama si Carson.For the whole duration of the game, I was not able to pay attention anymore because of the thoughts that lingered in my mind. His efforts that he showed me made it hard for me to trust my

Efforts"Lex, hinahanap ka ng kuya mo sa akin kanina. Saan ka ba nagpunta?" tanong sa akin ni Ate Estelle."N-nasa CAS building lang po ako ate." kinabahan na sagot ko. Hindi na siya nagtanong at nagtipa sa kanyang cellphone.The whole day I was not able to focus during my class.Baha rin ng missed calls mula kay kuya Leon at Kuya Levi sa aking cellphone kaya ko pinindot ang do not disturb na feature sa phone ko.My classes ended at lunch time since I only have two subjects scheduled today. I was wearing makeup today to hide the fact that I cried hard earlier before coming to school.Hindi ko na h

ReasonsTulala buong byahe pabalik sa siyudad habang nakasakay sa kotse ni Luke. Nakatitig lamang ako sa labas ng bintana at nanatiling tahimik. Tanging ang musika lamang na tumutugtog sa stereo ng kanyang kotse ang naging ingay sa aming buong byahe.When we drove to the Skyway of Cebu City, it was already sunrise. The scenery was mesmerizing, but that didn't change the fact that I like sunsets more than sunrises."Do you want me to end the arranged marriage that your father wants?" napatigil ako at bumaling sa kanya.Nanatili ang kanyang mga mata sa harapan habang nagmamaneho ng kanyang kotse. Nagsimulang tumibok ang aking puso na para bang hin
