A clear sky opened up for Raelynn when she woke up in the morning. She was outside on the veranda, overlooking the beautiful view outside. She wore her nighties, but she just covered them with a robe. Her soft and milky skin is glistening in the scorching sun. She looked up at the sky and eventually stopped when she saw a halo around the sun. She stared at it for a moment and smiled bitterly. As she closed her eyes, the scene of yesterday flashed back in her mind, a hurtful memory that she had buried in herself and carried until now. When I was a kid, I always wanted to see a rainbow, because my father used to say that a rainbow represents a good symbol in your life. It's a remembrance that something good will happen to you... but it's the opposite. I used to like it. I used to... But not until that one tragic night happened. It's raining cats and dogs outside. The fain sob of a child echoes the force of the rain. She had no companion inside but only herself. sitting on the bed

Henry Son Alexander POV "Good day, Passengers. Your captain is speaking right now. Welcome aboard Air TC 86A, which is currently travelling at 33,000 feet at a speed of 400 miles per hour. It is 1:25 p.m. We anticipate arriving in Spain around fifteen minutes early thanks to favorable weather conditions and a favorable tailwind. With a high of 25 degrees expected this afternoon, the weather is bright and sunny in Spain..." People tend to say that once we fall in love, we're going to get into trouble. But I don't believe in love. I don't know if it's real. Maybe because it's not my vocabulary to believe nor to have a girl in my life. I enjoy traveling alone and meeting new people and seeing new places. I like having alone time by myself. If I'm having a girl, I want a girl who will be the first and last in my life, not the one that comes and suddenly leaves. It's exhausting. Mula sa sinasakyang cockpit ay maangas na bumaba doon si Henry. With his soft and innocent figure, yet

Sabi nila na lahat ng mga bagay na naranasan mo ay may mga dahilan na kaya mong sukatin. Sukatin sa tingin mo'y makakaya mo. Pero makakaya 'ba ng isang tao maging maayos sa mga bagay na napag daanan niya? Mga bagay na 'pati ang mundo ay hindi nakiayon sa takbo ng buhay niya at pilit siyang binabalik sa nakaraan. Nakakapagod, nakakalula, nakakainis , nakakaiyak. Wala ka ng magawa kasi nandito kana. Ang aking mga paa na gustong gustong kumawala sa kadina ng nakaraan pero wala akong magawa dahil nilolobog ng konsensya. "Ram, kumain ka muna bago umalis ah, baka mapagalitan na naman ako ni Lola sabihing hindi kita pinapakain." Anunsyo ni Jay ng makita siyang nag aayos ng kaniyang gamit sa sala. Binalingan niya ito at ngumiti. "Pasensya kana, Jay. Pakisabi na lang kay Lola na wala akong ganang kumain." Nilagay ni Raelynn ang mga gamit na babauin niya, pagkain, sanitizer, clothes, toiletry bag at kung ano ano pa. "At bakit naman? Binilan ka niya ng Longanisa para kainin mo. Bahala

Sometimes it's better to imagine than to face reality. Your rules, your own world. You can manipulate it either way, but the sad thing is that imagination has a period of time. It cannot last any longer. Because every time people fall asleep to their dreams, they end up repeating the same routine in order to keep them happy. Whether happy or not, sad or angry, eventually all those feelings will fade. But the truth of the matter is, behind those scars is the proof of how strong you are as a person, and that's the proof that you're keeping yourself alive. And that's enough to tell yourself how brave you are to face those challenges alone, without anybody knowing it. Keep motivating yourself to move forward, because eventually, the road that you've been taking is the road that will take you to the right destination. Nagmumuni muni si Raelynn sa magandang tanawin ng biglang may nahagip ang mga mata niya. Her eyes widened in shock mula sa taong nakatayo at malayo sa pagitan ng kinat

"Nice to meet you too..." Ilang oras pa ang nilaan nila bago ni Raelynn naisipan na bumalik sa tent. Kasama niya si Henry na nag lalakad sa tabi niya. For some reason, she finds peace in his presence. It's weird that her mind was so calm around him. "My father wants me to settle down; he wants me to marry someone that I don't even see my features with," he said, looking at me. "It's just so dumb, right? "He chuckled and shook his head. I pressed my lips together. Nalaman ko kay Henry na gusto siyang ipag kasundo ng tatay niya sa anak ng kaibigan nito. Nalugi daw kasi ang kompanya at gusto naman tumulong ng tatay niya dito. Pero hindi pumayag si Henry. It's really not that hard to understand why Henry doesn't want to settle down while his father wants him to get married to someone else. Mahirap naman talaga pumasok sa kasal lalo na kung hindi ka sigurado at hindi mo mahal ang taong papakasalan mo. Marriage is sacred. I think it's way better if his father understands the

Inubos namin ang oras ng gabing iyon. Kung ano ano lang ang pinag kuwentuhan namin tungkol sa trabaho niya. Henry is quite talkative, minsan ko lang siya nakitang ngumiti sa mga kuwento niya. Ang seryoso niya kasi kapag nag k-kuwento siya. He never talked about his parents to me, which I respected. He only told me all about his work—how he became a pilot and became a successful CEO. "I was a working student before. I started working at my friend's mom's cafe. I'm working as a barista at that time. I make coffee every day. Dahil baguhan lang ang lugar na iyon dagsa ang mga tao doon. Naging puntahan 'din ng mga tao ang cafe noon. Her mom's coffee is another level, I must say. It's way different from the coffee that I tasted before. That's why it became talk of the town." "Dahil doon ay naging CEO ka?" Tanong ko. "No," Henry replied, making my curiosity eager to know more about it. "Tell me more." Tumango si Henry. "There is this one older man who often visits the cafe.
