It Started When It Ended Chapter XVIII: Stares and Confusions
Laying in bed was what I did all day. Chris and Selene checked up on me a while ago, I confirmed to them that I am doing just fine and they can continue whatever the hell they are doing outside. I cannot remember how many times Chris came to check up on me, I remember waking up three times and all those with his eyes meeting mine the first time I opened them. When I’m asking him, “what?” He’ll just shrug and ask me if I needed anything. Weird. He looks so worried. This is just dysmenorrhea. From everything that I’ve been through, this is just a small fries. Buti na lang hindi ko nakalimutan na bumili ng napkins nang mamili kami ni Chris sa Agrahbah kung hindi ay kanina pa ako nagpumilit na umalis na kami dito. I get up to see what’s happening outside. The moon is already present but there are no stars. I’m

Hindi ako pumalag sa hawak ni Chris. Nakipaglaban ako ng titig sa kaniya. Ayokong ako ang maunang sumuko dahil hindi ko siya maintindihan at hindi ko din maintindihan ang sarili ko, idagdag pa itong buwanang dalaw ko. Ewan ko na. The awkward moment stopped when Jafar played the guitar. He has no choice, Chris is already holding me and the guitar is within his hands. Knowing the pride he has, he’ll play something well that could match Chris’ guitar and singing ability. The only people who remained standing were the pairs. Lolita and Jak, Prince and Mal, and Chris and I. Jafar started singing a romantic duet with Selene. Oh, so she can sing. Not just can, but she’s good at it. Their voices harmonize with each other. Although the song is not familiar, hearing it from them introduces a great song to my ear.

Selene words kept running through my mind. “Chris, paano kung magkaroon ng sira at pumalya ang system bago mo mailigtas si Leira? Paano kung hindi na ako makaalala talaga at hindi ko magawa ang bagay na dapat kong gawin kaya ako bumalik?” I can’t help but to think about it, I am devoured and swallowed whole by those words. My mind is in a complete mess. “Chris, paano kung magkaroon ng sira at pumalya ang system bago mo mailigtas si Leira?” Those are Selene’s exact words that got me dumbfounded. The questions in my mind are slowly piling up which makes me just want to drag Chris in no time and confront his real intentions towards me. What is the system that they mentioned? Those saving? Coming back? What are they supposed to mean? Still, I remained silent and did not ask them anything. I immediately left them after hearing those words, it seemed like they did not notice my presence so I hurried back to the camper van. Hindi ako nakatulog buong gabi. Nakita ko pa nga na sa pwe

I missed the beauty of the City. Tiana just looks exactly like Ariel. From the buildings, commerce, infrastractures, and way of living. It has a lot more technological advancements than Belle. Even though the sun’s straight up, all the people are busy. If there are commercial buildings, there are also street vendors. People that are in and outside of the malls, workaholic people who do not take lunch breaks and people from the government who do not have lunch breaks but are off their offices. There are parts of the City that smell like coffee and pastries – sweet, inviting, and calming. As you go further, there will be a mixed smell of gasoline, smoke coming from different vehicles and industries, the smell of escaped air from the air conditioned open malls. We had lunch inside the mall and chose to go to a buffet restaurant that Chris suggested. He said they offer the best unlimited steaks which are his favorite. So he already went here and there? Kung saan saan na siguro napadp
It Started When It Ended Chapter XXII: Imaginations
Before the night ended, something mysterious, adamantly wonderful, and exhilarating happened. We danced to our hearts content. Selene and I were drunk in our own worlds, literally not minding everyone that touches us and dances with us. Sweats and bodies are colliding as we sway our hips and raise our hands but it does not stop us. We shouted and tried our best to be heard as if competing with the electronic music that the dj is playing. It's fun. But just like what people always say, the fun does not last forever. Neither do happy endings exist. Why was I thinking of a happy ending in this situation? It’s always like a kiss would resolve everything and anything. A princess kissed a prince and turned him into a very handsome gentleman, a prince kissed a sleeping princess and so she woke up and they lived happily ever after. A princess was poisoned then a true love’s kiss made her alive. They always make it like a true love’s kiss would solve all the problems in this world. An

“Why is there limited information about the wonders?” I asked. We are almost at the border of Pocahontas and Tiana. “Let’s just say that the seven wonders are just a myth. People talk about it but they have never encountered a person who finished all the seven places, so they aren’t really sure if it’s true or not.” I keep on nodding. “Few records are found about it and also the people who know the seven wonders, sila lang ang nagdeklara ng mga iyon. Basically, the people who know about the wonders are relatives or close friends of the seven people that shared their experiences and marked these places as the seven wonders.” So seven people, seven places, resulting in seven wonders – as what they called it. It was refreshing to talk to people without thinking about the stress, what has to come, and the burden you keep on carrying. I really miss my father, the features of Adam is what made me think of him and not the conversation like this. Because we never had a chance to talk this
It Started When It Ended Chapter XXIV: Regrets
Surely we all have our own traumas. Some of which we had at such a young age, some traumas we grow up into, and some that we just recently acquired. Growing up is crucial in every aspect. Everything that is happening around you is something that you can easily adapt with. In a family with violent behaviors, a child would grow up thinking it's alright or grow up full of fear to adapt to such a negative attitude. The thing is, these traumas will either consume you or you can live with it. I believe that these traumas do not leave you – they live with you. It just depends upon how you will handle it. Sometimes on quiet nights, it visits you. Sometimes when the day is all sunny and the birds are singing, it would visit you bringing dark skies and heavy rain. They all just appear all of a sudden. Sometimes it’s a friend, most of the time it’s a foe. But as time goes by, the longer you have it, the more you will realize that in almost everything, it is the only one that does not leave yo
It Started When It Ended Chapter XXV: Sorry
The fall hurt. Chris cannot move, his feet were sprained while my back was hurt due to the sudden fall. At this point I want to be ashamed of myself and shout at Chris at the same time. If he did not intervene once again, this would never happen. I want to be ashamed of myself because I got carried away by his words. I want to shout at Chris because he stopped me – again – making him hurt himself. The water is getting close to us. Adam immediately put down his bag and went to rescue us. I told him to get Chris first and just let me stay here but Chris was adamant. Adam figured this drama won’t be over not until he secured me first so that Chris would shut up and we would all be safe. He carried me like a bride. He’s unbelievably strong for his age, I weigh around 50 kilograms but he carried me effortlessly. Selene asked if my back hurts. I was tempted to say, “obviously not,” but I said, “yes.” If she’s really thinking, that question is clearly stupid. Of course my back hurts! I

It Started When It Ended Epilogue
This trip is getting more weird, exciting, and mysterious. Starting from when we reached the village at Cinderella and the time that we reached Auradon. It’s just that Chris and I kept tracing the mystery people who have the same names as us. Another thing is the pictures that we’re at the village in Cinderella. Those old photos that almost faded, they said that it is someone named Leira and Chris who traveled there along with volunteers who used to help them. Leira told them about the liters of light which they still use until now. There is one photo that caught my attention, the one who resembles Chris a lot which was named Chris too. The man is shirtless and he is holding an axe. According to them they were all shocked when they saw us. They thought that it was too impossible for us to retain our young features that well and there is no such thing as incantations and magic that could do that. “Chris? What do you think about all these coincidences? The names of those two travele

My plan after graduating is to look for a job while working at the cafe that Patricia and I started. It would be as simple as that. If given a chance, I would want to come to my mom’s medical missions in the remote areas of Disney Republic, to help her and the residents that we would encounter with the degree that I’ve finished. Probably propose efficient interior house designs and then coordinate with different engineers and architects, find a funder for the project, and implement it. Mom and Dad loved the idea. But it was a too generalized plan and I have to narrow it down. I have to blend in with the locals and make sure they would love the design that I would propose as it is still a reflection of their culture. But for now, I will be away for a month. “You okay?” Chris asked as he held my hand and gently squeezed it. “Yeah. A bit excited actually.” I told him. Today is the first day that we will travel. He asked for my parents permission even after graduation, that’s why they

The days passed by quickly. And just like how our lives move at a fast-pace, Chris has been hitting on me expeditiously. It’s seems like yesterday since he thought that I was going to kill myself at the pumpkin bridge but it was already three weeks ago. And that three weeks had been eventful. Of course I consulted my best friend by that time and I’ve got Chris’ note on my note app. I screamed so loud that night and muffled it all by hugging my pillow since I don’t want to wake up my parents. Patricia was screaming with me. She said that I should just wait a bit – like for an hour before responding to Chris, “so that you won’t be too obvious!” She reasoned out. And I followed her because she’s my best friend and she’s my great advisor when it comes to theses things But this one is really different. Surely I had crushes and the feelings got reciprocated but I don’t go any further than that. It’s like I am looking for something else and I am waiting for it to come, for it to be found on

Chris chuckled at me, he said that his mom loves old and odd names that’s why his name is Crisostomo and his sister is named Odessa. “It’s not that weird though. My name is just the backwards spelling of Ariel, since my mom and dad met there.” I explained with a smile. After I was born at Ariel my mom and dad decided to live here in Cinderella. I grew up here with my neighbor and best friend Patricia. I had the best life with my caring parents, understanding friends, and living my life to the fullest ever since. I didn’t know what I did to deserve this kind of life but I am grateful for the life I have now. I believe my parents made me become who I am right now and all these are the product of my everyday choices in life. Chris stopped walking when we got near Octavius Subdivision, “you’re living near here?” I nodded, “then we’re just one subdivision away! I just moved here recently.” He was surprised and even told me that he’s happy he chose that subdivision. My brows raised, “you’

I walked straight to my favorite eatery that resides at the end of the pumpkin bridge. Gosh! Tita Q must have been waiting for me. I had to go to Patricia to bring her the gifts from our family outing. And there I spend a little too much time at Patricia’s house. Patricia was so happy, contemplating how the hell am I able to go out on an outing when it is our final week and we would be graduating in less than a month from now. I went inside the eatery. Like usual, there were lots of people that were eating and everyone was enjoying their meals. Tita Q greeted me with a tight hug, “saan ka ba nanggaling na bata ka?” She held my hand and pulled me to a seat. “I prepared your take-outs na. Hindi ka ba kakain muna dito?” Tita Q is one of the best women I know, aside from Patricia and my mother. She has two kids which she raises alone but she’s great at doing that. She focuses on her children and hands-on with them even when she has to handle the eatery alone. When it is my free-time –

Leira is the kindest girl I have ever known. Although she says otherwise, I could see her heart that isn’t selfish. By the time we were at the village, I felt that it was the real her. She had become her true self. She teaches children, she lets me court her, she communicates with us, and shares her life. I was able to see her carefree self again and swear, everytime she let people in her life and connect with them – I feel more so happy. I haven’t felt this happy and proud just because of someone’s happiness. Then we had to leave and face the problem we left. I had a bad feeling because of the storm. I didn’t wanna leave the village and if possible that we could just stay there – we would. But I know Leira, as kind as she is – she wanted to face the mess that the other Chris had made. The storm intensified my bad feeling. More when we have to find Dr. Carval and Levy only to find Dr. Carval and his lab alone. She even did a great sacrifice of pushing me away to burn down the lab.

Seeing her in this situation has brought so much emotion to me. It was more than just a dream. She’s here. In the middle of darkness was her soul, standing in front of me. I don’t know what to say. My tongue got tied. As I let go of the hug, I didn’t know why she told me to just forget her. Unlike me, she doesn’t seem happy. She just stood in front of me. She wore the same dress on the day she died. Her body is glowing – emitting a blinding light – but I don’t care as long as I can see her. “Leira?” With a confused look, I asked her. I wanted to get near her again but she didn’t let me. Although her body appears like a soul, I was able to touch her. It feels like a dream to see her – the real her. “Let me go, Chris.” She’s pleading. Her voice had become that sweet voice that I could hear of everytime we would have an argument and she would use that mellifluous voice in order to deceive me and get whatever she wanted. I looked at her, wanting to talk with her. Like how she is,

Fvck him! I don’t need saving but he’s proving to me that I do – that I just cannot admit it to myself but everything about me screams for a six feet under help. “Are you listening?” He told me about his plan. My father contacted him a while ago. He’s now with Dr. Carval and Andrei. They were trying to see if the other Chris was gone. “Are you alright? Did he hurt you?” I shook my head as if he could see me. “Leira…” His voice is pleading for me to answer. “Yes.” From all the shouting and what I told my father, I felt like my throat was now dry and I couldn’t speak anymore. My father wanted to meet Chris so he could exchange my freedom for Dr. Carval. I said no to Chris. That Dr. Carval’s life is more important than mine. But he told me that life is equally important for all, I wanted to rebut and told him that our case is different. “Hush. Just listen to me. Everything will be alright. You’d be free – the freedom you wanted. And I would witness that.’’ I felt him smiling at me
