"We are tied by our interaction strings again. Let us communicate with each other in a calmer and more diplomatic manner, okay? From now on, we can now use this body to talk and act in what we want, take turns some time, as long as it is with the prescribed conduct. Please use your common sense. You are already a young adult and can differentiate what is right from wrong."
"Well, whatever floats your boat, Master Unknown."
Master Qiu smiled at Tanashiri, and Tanashiri, in return, glared at him.
Then, they both felt a familiar feeling-a feeling felt by every human; a threatening storm.
Tanashiri is used to feeling this when he was in his own body.
He is feeling this, every time, because he is a glutton. He wants to eat, every time and anytime.
He loves food and will eat and buy what he wants. Because, well, he is filthy rich. He is fond of different cuisines. But his palate loves Asian cuisine the most. He loves stir-

Chapter 23 Master Qiu turned his back quickly from his servants. And like a veteran track-and-field athlete, he had gone sprinting towards the public restroom. Shutting the door closed and leaving all his servants outside, he breathe deeply, trying to calm himself to tell himself that the storm is going to end soon. He is still out of breath, with his thoughts racing, and is in a state of panic. "I should not allow myself to be discovered that I am not alone in this body. I should be careful with my own actions. Know how to be a good actor, Tanashiri." "Do not worry, Master, I am good at anything. Just tell me what should I do." "My goodness, if I would have known that I will be brought in this kind of situation, I should have studied more about Asian Studies in my college years way back in the 2000s." "I forgot to speak Mandarin because I did not speak and write it for many, many years, and also, basic e

Chapter 24 Master Qiu and his servants are sprinting towards their home in Shanghai-a bustling place filled with the usual structures a commerce center has. Schools, houses, hospitals, factories. Tanashiri is just beginning to marvel at what is around him. "I never thought that I would see Shanghai with my two eyes in the 1930s. This looks more picturesque than what I saw in school textbooks!" Master Qui's energy preserved and only allotted for use for one day is beginning to be drained. It is like, he is carrying Tanashiri's body in his back. He is filthy, and Master Qiu's beautiful and expensive changshan dress is soiled with his own dirt. The people around him stare at him like he is an exotic animal worthy of display in an animal museum. They are laughing, pointing their fingers at him, and covering their noses with their spare handkerchiefs. "Master Qiu, that traditional dress is brought from a faraway town. You really did

Chapter 25 They are staring at the array of clothes around them, from fancy suits and traditional clothes, there is so much to choose from. Tanashiri's head is spinning because the clothing is colored brightly. They are in the most expensive men's store in Shanghai, to choose what will Master Qui will wear. Each of the salesmen working in the men's store holds a Western-style designed suit in their left hands and Chinese traditional men's clothes in their right hands. They have been that like for approximately two hours. They are sweating a lot despite the bad weather. He's been treated like a Master even if he looks like a beggar. He smells bad, too. The salesmen are sweating, too, because they are fighting the urge to cover their noses. They had to endure the awful smell that is polluting the store; they cannot do that in front of Master Qui. It will make them look rude. "Master Qiu, you should choose now. We are running late with yo

Chapter 26 The venue of the meeting with the British businessmen is made in one of the most expensive places in Shanghai, at the heart of the city. It was agreed upon by locals and foreigners that the place is one of the finest views in Shanghai that is overlooking the view of the deep blue sea and busy port down the road. The restaurant is the structure that replaced the former temple where the people gather and pray during special occasions, especially birthdays and new years, and almost made up for the destruction of the charming holy place a few years before. It looked like a mix of Western-style that is sort of made for convenience and Oriental enigmatic marveled because of simplicity, oozing with enigmatic aura around the red-bricked structure. Other structures beside it look like oversized glass outhouses, not suited with the theme of the place beside it. Master Qiu braced himself as he entered the restaurant, walking through a narrow corridor

Chapter 27 This is not truly the Philippines. There is no winter in the Philippines. Philippines is a tropical country, near the equator. When I was young, I wanted to feel and experience real snow-touch it with my skin. I said to myself that I want to stay in a place with a winter season and stay there, forever. But now that I am in a place that has a snowy season, I deeply regret my childhood wish. It is really true, that the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence. I am now trembling in the cold, I am not used to it. Tanashiri fell asleep for a few minutes because of the intense feeling he had with the encounter in the restaurant. It is so stressful for him that he fainted with fatigue in Master Qiu's body. He had a nap in the cold concrete inside the body. He thought that napping for a while will bring him back to his body. Or that he is just having a weird

Chapter 28 This is such a beautiful mirror, exquisitely made. "Where did this mirror come from? Master Qiu asked Li Jhie. "It came from the rural areas, made by the workers. Pretty, isn't it? Decorated with precious stones and gold, made with raw hands. What a sight to behold, a thing to cherish and take care of." Master Qiu nodded in agreement and did not utter a single word. Tanashiri felt a little bored when he realized that he did not see a work of art made like this when he was conscious. He bought different kinds of jewelry as a gift for the wives and mistresses of the stockholders, to be taken as a bribe to be at his side and make them leave his father. He hadn't done enough diplomacy and business deals like any usual businessman will do in the past, only bribery, from the start. But those tricks always worked, especially if the pieces of jewelry came from a world-renowned jeweler. The women of the stockholders can coax their hus

Chapter 29 The girl lying in the streets is coughing vigorously. Some people did not mind her, lying down on the cold concrete. Some gave him bread. Both warm and cold. Newly-baked, and leftovers. She ate all of it and laid her wounded body in the concrete. She tried with all her might to make herself comfortable but to no avail. Every part of her aches and she cringes and wails every time she moves her body. "These tastes okay." A middle-aged lady motioned to his son and the child walked near her. He stopped and bowed down to her. Mother and child's POV: "Mom, that girl looks pitiful. Shouldn't we do something to help her?" He said, holding his mother's arms endearingly, massaging her fingers. "Of course, my dear son. But you only got some cookies now, and I have some money. What should we give her now, that we can see that she cannot walk on her own?" The mother got hold of some of her money and counted it in front of

Chapter 30 "Let us go, Li Jhie. I need to do something. Quick!" Li Jhie and the servants looked and talked to each other and agreed that the other servant will pull the rickshaw. "You are now really impulsive Master, aren't you? In the past, you don't always bother us when you have something in your mind, and now, you do." "People change, Li Jhie. In the past, I do not care what I have on my mind, as I won't say it. But now, I decided that I should change for the better. I should not bottle up my emotions, as it will bother me eventually, in the future." "And it won't make sense if I will be meek, as I have someone clever and noisy with me. It is as if he hypnotizes me into doing something I should not do. And, being silent and meek about certain things will make my plans fail, and my time here is running out. I should do my best to make things right. I should make difference when I came back here. Being myself as I am in the past will make my tri

Tanashiri woke up with a throbbing headache, with my father and mother sleeping beside me. They are seated close to each other. They seemed to have reconciled. I am in the hospital again after fainting. I fainted after seeing that girl on the train. Tanashiri headed toward the bus stop, all by myself, and boarded the bus. Thankfully, the bus conductor helped him carry his things and put them in the designated area of the bus. He sat in the remaining empty seat on the bus. He cannot drive his car because he still cannot move normally his limbs after his deep coma. He left his mother and father, still dozing off near his hospital bed. They have a lot of talking to do, so I must leave them by themselves. I know they are exhausted from watching me all night, all year that I have been in a coma. I wonder how my Q-boy's doing. Tanashiri took some pills and fell asleep again. This time, he did not have any dreams. It is just a pitch-black type of sleep, but not a deep sleep though.

It is an early Monday morning, and there’s an aching sensation in my chest. Why is my life this way? It is been months and I dream of that man every time I fell asleep who looks like me. I should be scared because he looks like me, but I am not. Seeing him makes me feel at ease, and makes me want to talk to him some more. But when I try speaking to him in my dreams, I just wake up, not blurting even a single word to him. It is frustrating. It's been months since she, and Lisha left China without a word to their superiors. A handful of incident reports are made by the two to explain why they left the group.“Hiraya, wake up! Hearing my name is very disappointing. It is not like any other common Filipino name. Having that name makes me an easy target for bullies in school. My mother is a Filipino language teacher. She adores the Filipino language very much. My name means the product of a person’s faith, ideas, and goals. Sometimes I get thanks to her for naming me Hiraya, because I usu

"God, please listen to my cries. I learned this language because I think I will be nearer to you when I use this. I seldom talk to you, but this time, I will try. I am a normal boy. I have all the material things, but I still feel that something is missing. It was like that until I met Jouri. God, you know that I love her, don’t you? But we met at the worst times. Why did it come to this? How?"Why does this feel nostalgic for me?"I want to say bitter words to you, but it will be of no use. Maybe because I acknowledged you too late. I met Jouri too late.

"Where is Jouri?"He woke up and searched around. They are in a big rundown hut, with the roofs decaying and snow running down from the ceiling.Jouri is not around. Everyone, men and women, young and old, are lining up to get some food from the soldiers.Scraps."Sir Qiu, get your ass moving around, time is fast ticking, we should get out of here fast," Tanashiri's voice is shaking inside his head.Tanashiri is scared out of his wits.He wants to leave, and knows the way, but does not want to leave his pal."Ano ba itong napuntahan ko, what an unlucky life," ani Tanishiri.Qiu gave him the chance to get out, but he did not heed his advice.Their own heads are in turmoil right now.He continued to walk with his feet and knees beaten up, and certainly, he knows the place.He looked left and right, and he calmed down a bit when he saw two people.

A Tale Between S and W: Not your usual giddy love story Pure chaos in itself
The streets are in chaos. Everybody is shouting, the Japanese soldiers are searching every area, especially households and stores. Upon walking outside every area they searched, they are holding papers. Land titles. The vehicle is still full of people, disarray, when Jouri and Qiu looked at each other,unexpectedly. They seemed to read each other's minds. Qiu looked away, and searched for an opening. He saw that there is an empty seat at the back of the vehicle. A man had a heart attack minutes ago, and he was pushed out of the bus by one of the passengers. Qiu suddenly kicked his way out of the first row, and caught hold of Jouri's hand. 跳! Qiu and Jouri jumped from the vehicle. They tripped themselves all the way across the street. They are now safe. It is kinda silent in that area. Or they thought it was. They are now sitting on a cold brick, hiding themselves from the chaos. They are both breathing heavily, but Jouri's breathing is more frantic. And audible. Qiu put hi

I am not adopted. I am a real member of the family, my family that was left behind on Poland soil. All her life, Jouri thought she is just adopted because she does not look Jewish. Because of it, the neighborhood, and her schoolmates, mocked her, and her appearance. "Your grandmother is Chinese, and she tried her luck in Poland. There, she met your grandfather, who is a Jewish businessman. You look like Chinese, unlike your siblings, because your grandmother's genes are more dominant in you," the frail-looking rabbi told her. She ran out of the restaurant as fast as she could, far, far away into the alleys of the streets of Shanghai to hide her mixed feelings. She does not know if she feels happiness, sadness, or both, knowing that she is not somebody her parents saved from an unknown orphanage. Jouri is enjoying her reverie when she heard three deep, loud sounds that echoed in her ears. Joyous conversations began to fill the place. People are starting to crowd in her place, and
