2024-10-29 19:42:56A week... had passed. She stayed the longest in Batanes for about three more days before deciding to go home. While driving, she felt pale and drained. She felt like an empty can, or maybe someone who can't control showing the feelings that they don't know why they feel it.
She didn't plan her road trip to run away, she took the chance to maybe-just maybe, relax herself and try to be calmer that she will soon regain her past.
But, no.
She is wrong. She's been gone for days, drove for long hours. But nothing changed, she still feels hopeless. She feels empty as before.
Hitting the break for about one block away from their gate. She reached for her mirror and looked at herself, "I thought I felt empty," she muttered trying to smile,

As she parked her car and got off the car, a muscular silhouette of a man emerged in front of her. She swallowed hard when she realized who that is. "You collapsed the other day, tapos ngayon nag-drive ka pa. Paano kung mabinat ka? Wala ka'ng kasama, paano kung nahimatay ka ulit—" "Pero wala naman nangyari..." she reasoned out, the man clicked his tongue, "Don't give that reason, baka makalimutan ko that you're in your twenties already," agad siyang tinalikuran nito. There was a part of her that's scared of that aura her father showed her. Zach Luis Andrejez, her father, is supportive of things that would benefit the whole family and for each of them individually. "On the study room, youngest!" she was taken back when it hissed. S

Hours passed, just roaming around the mall. Whenever the girls go inside a store or boutique, he would stomp his feet first before leading himself in. Aside from being the fund of the two, he's the bodyguard and even the one who carries all the items that the two got. "Please tell me that we're going to eat," Pyros tiredly asked as Alexis stopped at her track. Even Zaph is clueless why, "Why did we stop?" she asked her, following Alexis's sight she stilled with a slight pain in her heart. "Alexis, let's not make a scene," Pyros said when he realized and saw what the two girls saw. They heard Alexis sigh, a sigh of relief then crept into a smile, "Let's go? The Trio is back, and that's enough for me," what she said was the truth, but she didn't say it all...

They got two rooms, originally one is for the couple and one is for Zaphyra. But since Pyros is still not there, Alexis abandoned the other room and occupied Zaphyra's. "Are you ready?" it's around nine in the evening when they arrived at the airport, probably they were on the road for at least an hour. Zaphyra turned to Alexis and nodded forcibly smiling, "Do we need to wear this?" even Zaphyra has her fashion line, she doesn't dress up with short dresses, a tube top dress to be exact. The dress has a classy wavy effect on the lowest end and its color is mustard with highlights of white and a small design in the middle torso, a daisy. "You look so stunning Zaph! You should wear a dress like this!" Zaphyra shook her head no, "Clothes like this? No!" she said, but honestly she looks

Zaphyra just can't sleep, not only because of the news but due to her new "roommate". Pyros insisted that Alexis and he should share a room since they are the couple, while Zitron and Zaph insisted that they shouldn't be in one room. In the end, both of them lost to the couple. "Urgh..." she said, rolling her eyes and covering her face with a pillow. It's the thoughts and it's Zitron's loud snores, there seems to be no end. Irritated, she went out in the middle of the night and sat near the beach, feeling the wind brush to her sensitive skin. How cold the air turned when earlier it was hot. Thinking of the news that Syrae gave, she's having second thoughts. Should she listen and conclude that Sirius is the father or not? "What a l

As the night deepens and another night with Zitron in the same room, it is again another time to go out from his noises. Brushing her feet in the sands she saw Pyros out in the moonlight, now she knows why she fell for him years ago, Pyros had an innocent face of an angel... well it's more of a metaphor for such a handsome face. "Hey..." she took a seat beside him, staring at the calm water of the Caribbean. "Hey, why are you out here?" asked her, lifting up his gaze upon her face. She shakes her head, "Zitron's noise would be the shortest explanation," she let out a small laugh and turned to him. "How about you?" "Uh, you kno

He drove her home but never said a word, she felt that he's tense and didn't ask. Until the last close of her door, he only watched her and she didn't even say goodbye. With that, she opened her laptop and messaged Zitron through Skype. Rie... Why? What's the deal betweenClein and Elios? Why'd you ask?

He served as her bodyguard and made her work from home, she wanted to refuse but... he handcuffed both of them. "Really Sirius, I need to pee!" her brows were arching together, glaring at him with her pouting lips. He is tempted, very tempted, and is close to kiss her. He cleared his throat, "Technically you can, don't worry... I won't peek," and winked at her. She gasped and covered her mouth before whispering, "Pervert!" He immediately avoided her when she tried to hit him but failed and remembered that they are handcuffed together. On the sofa, on her top, he reached for her face and swifts her hair out of her face. Abling him to see her whole face. Staring... again.

"I think I wanna marry you..." What he said made her forget her vocabulary, she was stunned. And while he is smiling from ear to ear, she felt guilty. "Hey... can you stand up?" she whispered. He stands up, smiling at her. I can't make this happy face turn to grim.She thought, "Uhm..." "I know it's too fast... I ask you Zaph, even only engagement. I feel that we're both serious." She couldn't say anything neither process any other thoughts in her mind. "I-I'm sorry..." as his face turns into a grim, she caressed her hand in his cheeks. "I'm not ready for any level ups yet..." His face saddened, "Please don't doubt yourself... I just need time to think," and kissed

Air I Breathe SPECIAL CHAPTER
I FORGOT On the same day that Zaphyra woke up, she was also discharged, and because no injuries could be seen in her, she didn't need intensive care at the hospital as Yoh wanted. "My head hurts a bit-" "I told you, you should've stayed in the hospital..." She completely understood her brother's concern but it was not what she thought of, not that she is not giving herself importance but the hospital had many patients other than her that needed a room. "Kuya Yoh, I'm not the only patient in the hospital, besides I have something that is treatable but not deadly..." She glanced back at the window as she missed sitting in the passenger seat of Sirius's car. Their small talks mattered to her because it meant a lot fo

A bit like her Mother Since last night, she isn't bothered to sleep nor rest as she keeps on thinking about what Elios said, about his fear of the mother that she adored despite Arqienna's flaws as a mother to her children. Zaphyra loves her mother because she understood the incomplete and unhappy childhood of her mother, yet she's still trying her best to grow her family much better than hers. "We will start torturing you until you beg to just die..." she was stopped by the sudden thud as the door opens before her and Elios once again with his stylish grey suit and his dishevelled hair that showed how he looked great even in the early morning.

Abducted "So... you're back at work again!" After a week of being with Sirius in the city of love, she's back in New York while Sirius travelled to another country for a meeting. She couldn't contain her smile as Jean eyed her with so much curiosity. Slowly putting her bag on her table, she heard Jean whimper with a teasing smile. She contained her giggles, not until Jean's eyes widened as she tucked her hair into her right ear. "Holy-" Jean screamed in so many butterflies that she felt in her stomach for Zaph. "You're engaged?!" "Uh... I guess?" Her forehead turned puckered and Jean jumped to hug her tight, "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I can't take this all in, I'm so happy for the both of you!"

While looking straight at his eyes, that's what she said.

"Are you both hungry?" Farkle just emerged from their back and that took Zaphyra's attention to him as well as the others. Kyla ran to him, "Daddy!" Then Zaphyra stood up and faced Sirius again with a smile. Syrae felt a bit awkward and tense between them so she decided to break the silence, "Taken?" Zaphyra was stunned by her question and nervously chuckles, "No-Actually, yes." And smiles quirky and that made Syrae widen her eyes. Zaphyra signed Syrae something with her eyebrows and Syrae quickly got that. Smiling, Zaphyra looked at Syrae's belly which grew bigger. "Ninang ako ha?" and bid goodbye to them and went back to Kyla and Farkle to join them. "What the-" Syrae immediately covered Sirius's mouth before he says anything an

She hailed a cab for her too, the last eyes she saw were Adrian's eyes. All she can see is love, genuine love. She felt pity now, for Adrian instead of her brother. She saw it through Patricia's eyes. If she's not going to choose between Zio or Adrian, she's going to choose herself... always herself and it's because she's self-centered. When she heads back to her condo, she noticed that the two apartments on her floor are open and have things just outside the door. What made her heart melt and feel relaxed is the little girl. "Daddy! Look, I'm big and I can carry this!" the kid shouted while carrying her basket full of toys. You can see in its face how heavy those are. She chuckled and went to the kid, she lifted the basket up off
