Your color is still haunted by the past that it keeps on drowning you down until you can no longer appreciate the life that was given to you. Despite the enduring pain that lingered in your body I'd love to see your color shining through.
View MoreFAUZIA kept running to nowhere. The place was pure black, no ray of light was seen.A strange disturbing noise lingered, she stopped running then tried to listen to where it was coming.She followed the noise even if the way she was walking was pitch black, Fauzia tried to investigate what type of creature she was hearing.When the noise became more vivid hundreds of bolts of lightning struck her whole.It wasn’t some kind of a creature.It’s more like a scream of a person.She steps back when the sound worsened. The deafening scream of torment rang in her ears.Sa sobrang lakas ng epekto nito sa kaniya hindi na niya namalayan na napaupo na siya. Tinakpan niya na lahat-lahat ang tenga niya hindi pa rin naibsan ang sakit ng sigaw nito sa pandinig niya.With her utmost strength she pushed herself to stand up, muling gumalaw ang kaniyang mga paa para tumakbong muli.Lumukob ang kaba sa kaniyang dibdib nang mapagtantong kahit pa tumakbo siya ay parang sinusundan pa rin siya ng ingay na iyo
AUSTIN caught the shot glass that Neron threw at him. “You should not have come here, second director. “ Neron was rigid, he threw a bottle of rum on his direction again.Wala siyang balak uminom, ang pinunta niya lang naman doon ay si Neron para alamin ang bumabagabag sa isipan niya. “I just wanted to be sure if Emo is safe with you.” Sinimulan na ni Austin na lagyan ng rum ang kaniyang shot glass. “Sana dinaan mo na lang sa maayos ng paraan, maiintindihan naman kita,” kalmadong aniya sa kaharap.Neron scoffed at what he heard from Austin. “Didn’t you’re friends told you? And come on, you have a wife and I assume she’s already pregnant? You’ll do the same if you were in my shoe.”Hindi tinatapunan ng tingin ni Austin si Neron, pinakiggan niya lang ang tono ng pananalita nito at ang kinikilos ng katawan nito.“Don’t worry about Seymour, he’s in a good place now,” pagpapaalam nito sa kaniya. “Please do me a favor, second director. If it’s okay with you.”“What is it?”“Get out of here
NASA harap na siya lahat-lahat ni Austin hindi pa rin ito natinag sa kinatatayuan. Siniko niya ang tagiliran nito.Nang mahimasmasan na ito, parang binuhusan ng malamig na tubig si Austin dahil sa gulat. “You looked bothered, is there something bothering you, my love?” Inikot niya ang braso sa likod niya para igiya na papasok.“It’s nothing. I was just spacing out.” He laughed, empty. “Bakit hindi ko kayo nadatnan na dumating?” Austin asked, leaving the feeling behind.“Sa likod kami dumaan dahil maraming pinamili ang magaling mong kaibigan,” Aniya na tinutukoy si Efron.Sasagot pa lamang si Austin nang biglang umalingawngaw ang putok ng bala na nagmula sa loob.Mas lalong kumabog ang kabang naramdaman ni Austin, minadali niya ang pagkilos at hinila si Fauzia na naestatwa sa kinatatayuan.He pulled his wife towards their well-protected car, before letting go of her hand he kissed her temple. “Stay here, don’t ever go out without seeing me alright?”Hindi na niya hinintay pang sumagot
LENNON and Lazzini looked at each other for the fifth time, they have this unknowing looked when they heard another sigh from Austin.Two of Austin’s friends couldn’t remember how many times he sighed from time to time. Because of annoyance, Lazzini asked him.“Dingleberry, what’s up with you? You looked bothered obviously.” He rolled his eyes when he heard an exaggerated sigh from Austin again.“Stop it.” It’s now Lennon’s turn to speak. “You’re annoying.”Austin’s eyes shut closed. He’s frustrated and worried, it’s making him sick. “I don’t really know why I’m feeling like this but there’s a part of me that is hesitating to celebrate Emo’s first year with us outside SJ.”“Oh,” They said in sync.Lennon cleared his throat. “This isn’t the first time we went out of SJ, don’t worry yourself too much, dingleberry.” He patted his shoulder.“Yea.” Lazzini agreed with Lennon. “Everything will be alright.”To keep the gut feeling out of his system, minabuti niyang isipin ang asawa pati ang m
PATONG pa niya ang ulo sa palad ni Fauzia nang marinig niya itong umungol at bumabangon na nakapikit pa rin ang mga mata.Umayos ng upo si Austin at inalalayan ang mahal pahiga muli, ramdam niya ang pagsinghap nito. Nahihirapan ang kaniyang asawa na huminga.“Higa ka muna…” anito, inaayos ang ulo sa unan nito. “How are you feeling, mon amour?”Hindi pa rin minumulat ni Fauzia ang mga mata pero hawak nito ngayon ang kaniyang noo at kalmado na rin ang kaniyang paghinga.“I’m okay, medyo nananakit pa ulo ko but it’s tolerable. Teka, anong nangyari?” Nakabukas na ang mga mata nito.Austin flipped her hair over her shoulder before leaning to give Fauzia a peck kiss on her lips. “You blackout suddenly, after our exchange of vows. May masakit pa ba sa ‘yo?” he asked as he laid down on the chair, slightly relaxed his body.She nodded.Her face looked down, Fauzia bit her lower lip. Guilt spread through her pale face. “I’m sorry…” she heaved a deep sigh. “I ruined our wedding day, I tried holdi
SABAY na nagtagpo ang mga mata nilang dalawa bago pinagdakopin ang kamay. Ramdam niya ang panlalamig ng palad ng dalaga kahit pa pinagpapawisan ito. The priest looked at Austin. “Do you Austin take Fauzia Niryana Alfonso to be your wife, will you love her and comfort her, honor and keep her in sickness and in health. Forsaking all others, be faithful to her as long as you both shall live if do you, say I do.”With eyes smiling the same with his lips while looking at her radiant beauty, he answered, “Yes, definitely. I do.”The priest is now looking at Fauzia. She nervously gulped, still remained composed even if her vision is becoming blurry. “Do you Fauzia take Austin Devereux Sevilla to be your husband, will you love him and comfort him, honor and keep him in sickness and in health. Forsaking all others, be faithful to him as long as you both shall live if do you, say I do.”With all of the strength that she has left, she spoke, “I do, father.” She forced a smile at him.Austin squ
PALMS are sweating, her hands trembled. Her breathing was making her chest pains as seconds passed.She gulped numerous times. Trying to contain the unexplained pain she’s feeling inside her body. Fauzia can feel the drops of her sweats on her forehead, tinodo niya ang pagpapay gamit ang kamay. She doesn’t want her makeup to get ruined.The shortness of her breath became harder to hide, she can’t hold it any longer but as soon as the car stopped and her foot touched the ground she tried her hardest to not let the pain overpower her.She waited for the huge door of the church to open and when it finally opened she began walking, as much as she wanted to slow herself down from walking but she couldn’t, she really need to walk a little faster, pakiramdam niya bibigay na ang katawan niya kung hindi niya pa ito bibilisan.Nang nalalapit na siya sa kinatatayuan ni Maliq sumalubong ito sa kaniya na may nagniningning na mga mata bago inilahad ang braso nito para kapitan niya. “You’re stunning
MAY parte sa utak niya na gustong sumigaw pero hindi siya payagan ng katawan niya kahit na kayang-kaya niya namang sumigaw para humingi ng tulong.Walang pag-iingat siyang hinila ng taong nakahawak sa kaniya, nagpaubaya lang siya dito at nanahimik.Naiiyak na siya sa kung ano mang mangyayare, may mga imahinasyon sa kaniyang utak na naglalaro. Namamawis ang palad niyang nakasiklop habang paulit-ulit na bumubusal ng panalangin sa kaligtasan niya.Gusto niya mang sumigaw pero hindi niya magawa, parang may bumabara sa kaniyang lalamunan na pumipigil sa kaniyang magsalita.Natatalisod na siya, hindi niya alam kung saan siya balak dalhin ng taong ito pero alam niya na nasa iisang lugar pa rin sila dahil naririnig niya pa rin ang lagaslas ng tubig.In the middle of her rapid heart beating, she can’t stop but to wonder why this person didn’t say anything that will even scare her, hindi niya alam pero sa katahimikan na namutawi sa kanilang paglalakad mas lalo lang siyang natatakot sa mangyayari
NANG makontento na sa nakita silang dalawa saka na niyayang muli ni Austin si Fauzia, tumuloy lang sila ng lakad sa gitna ng tunnel.Hindi alam ni Fauzia kung saan na sila patungo, hinayaan niya lang na dalhin siya ng binata kung saan-saan.Namataan niya ang liwanag sa lagusan, nasa dulo na sila ng tunnel.Hinawi ni Austin ang dahon ng puno na humaharang sa dadaanan nila. Agad na nilibot ni Fauzia ang naggagandahang paligid.“Whoa… This is paradise…” she gasped when she heard a roaring animal. “Wow! That looks so cool!” nagtatakbo na ito papalapit sa nagtataasang rehas para tignan ng malapitan ang mga puting tigre, iniwan na ng tuluyan ang binata.Austin shook his head and catch up with her.He chortled when he saw her changed direction, Fauzia was running towards the falls while she pointed it to him. “So cute…” he whispered to himself.Lumihis na siya ng daan at tinungo na ngayon ang direksyon ng dalaga.Naabutan niyang nilalanghap nito ang sariwang hangin habang nakadipa ang mga kam
With utmost intensity, her gaze locked in Austin’s eyes.“Now tell me, Austin…” With tears still flowing in her eyes, she asked.“Would you still accept this loathful woman? This lost and weak Fauzia?”
