“Where do you plan to go next?” Sir Kalix asked, so I quickly thought, because I didn’t have any plans for today. “Mall? Cinema? Food park?”“Is there an amusement park nearby, Sir?” He looked at me with a furrowed brow, then returned his gaze to the road since he was driving.“Yes, you want to go there?” I nodded repeatedly, hearing Sir’s soft laughter and sigh, “Crazy woman.”Just as Sir said, there was indeed an amusement park nearby, but it wasn’t fully open yet since it was only two in the afternoon. “Sir, do you want to eat first?”“Is there any place to eat here?” I couldn’t help but laugh at his expression; it was obvious he wasn’t used to this place, like it was his first time here.“Yes, over there!” I pointed to the eatery.“What?! There’s no way I’m eating that dirty thing.”I burst out laughing, “Come on, it’s delicious! You won’t die from it!” I pulled him and ran towards our destination.We ended up at the barbecue stall!“Sir, four chicken intestines, two chicken blood

“Come on, Sir Kalix!” I didn’t let him finish what he was saying, as if something crushed my heart when I saw the unusual sadness in his eyes.“Where? I thought we were going to wait?” he said, looking confused.“Yes, but look, it’s already five thirty. I overheard one of the students at the barbecue stand saying there will be fireworks at nine. We should ride everything before nine!”“What?! Are you crazy?! All of it? Do you even know how many rides there are?”“Huh? No, just whatever we can do in the time we have! Let’s go!” I pulled him along, starting with the octopus ride, of course, as a warm-up.Sir didn’t speak throughout the entire ride. “Are you okay, Sir?” He just nodded but didn’t look at me. I just walked on until we reached the caterpillar ride. It was full of kids, but I still wanted to try it.“What’s this ride? Is it similar to the first one we rode?” Sir whispered as we got on. I was about to answer, but I noticed that his seatbelt wasn’t properly fastened. Even thou

“Hello?” I answered the call with my eyes still closed, feeling very sleepy. “Who is this, you jerk?” I asked irritably, annoyed at being disturbed from my sleep.I was still tired from the unusual activities with my boss yesterday. We rearranged his office setup, just so there would be something new to look at.Every time it was my day off, he always had some gimmick. In the six months I’ve been working with him, it felt like we had a bulletin board of achievements. Every Monday was something different, and I had gotten used to it because my boss seemed bored when he had nothing to do. “What the fuck? Jerk?” I quickly opened my eyes, startled, and sat up. “Come and see me at my office, now.”“Ha?” I stood up immediately, almost tripping over my blanket on my way to the phone. “Oh, damn it, ouch, wait, boss, am I your newly hired secretary?”“What the? Are you complaining again? Just hurry up, I left my file in my room, in the second drawer, you know where the key is, and it’s importa

“Thirty-seven thousand, eight hundred fifty pesos and fifty cents, please sign here, ma’am,” I nodded and took the paper I needed to sign, “Thank you.”“Is that all okay, ma’am?” I asked.“Just wait for the receipt, ma’am,” I nodded and stepped aside, waiting for my receipt, “Here you go, ma’am,” I nodded and thanked them, then took the receipt and left.I sent money yesterday, after receiving my salary, as Cris said, she needed to buy things and clothes for her baby, as she will give birth in a few months and also needs a check-up.I told her that after she gives birth, she should go back to studying, she didn’t respond, but I’ll try to convince her, I don’t want her to end up like me, not finishing my studies.Maybe, little by little, dad is able to pay off his debts, mom is also free from jail, I hope she won’t go back to jail again. I have a two-year contract here, I hope when I go home, the house is already fixed, almost all my salary here, I send to them. I’m excited to go home.

“Samantha, are you okay?” I almost dropped the bowl of soup I was holding on my boss’s foot, because I was so startled when he suddenly spoke beside me. “You look distracted, what happened while I’m gone?”“Nothing, boss, um, were you there earlier?” I couldn’t look directly at him, “Should I heat up the food, or do you want something else to eat?”“No, just microwave the leftovers, I have tons of paperwork, bring that to my office after, thanks,” I couldn’t reply, and he just went straight into his office.Two days have passed since he kissed me, and I can’t be at ease when he’s around. I feel awkward, of course, he’s my boss, and then that happened? I know it wasn’t meant for me, that’s what’s embarrassing.But from his actions, it seems like he doesn’t remember what happened earlier. The next day, when we saw each other again, it was because he woke up late that night. I even heard him in the kitchen. I finished my work quickly and went to my room, not knowing how to face him.Mayb

“Kalix, come on! What’s wrong! Stop torturing yourself! It’s not your fault that your family died! It was her fault for being so stubborn and not asking you first!”“Shut up, Fin, will you?” I couldn’t walk properly due to my hangover. “I hate when you nag early in the morning,” I said and grabbed a can of beer from my fridge.“Kalix!” Fin shouted and stole the can from my hand. “I said stop it!”I muffled and looked at her, “Who the fuck are you to tell me what to do? How the fuck did you even get in here? You have no right to tell me anything. Shut the fuck up, will you?”I saw tears welling up in her eyes, but I didn’t care. No one, when I say no one, not even a single soul, can understand what I feel right now. The guilt that is building up every passing day, the regret I’ve been drowning in, and the misery that I have to chew on every morning.“I’m just concerned about you. It’s not really your fault that your family died! She should have asked you first before coming to a conclu

“James! What’s up, dude? It’s been a while, how’s life going?” I paused in sipping my drink. I saw Archie along with Silver—my college block mates. “Are you here alone, buddy?” I greeted him with a handshake.“Yeah, just buying some time, Silver,” I greeted him too. He nodded while still looking at his phone. “How are you?” I reciprocated, even though I didn’t really feel like engaging in conversation. Just a small talk will do; hopefully, they’ll leave soon.“Doing fine. Hey, James, I’ve heard some rumors,” Archie said, diverting my attention from my drink. “I won’t believe it, especially if it didn’t come from you,” his voice carried a hint of amusement and sarcasm.“I actually don’t care, Arc. People tend to gossip every time,” I replied, taking a shot of the alcohol in my hand. “Another serving,” I signaled the bartender for another round.“I mean, is it true that your third business failed again? Why was that again? You failed to maintain the good hygiene of your company? I can’t

“What are you doing here again, J?” I couldn’t help but laugh at whatKalix said when I entered his office. My cousin was always busy, nothing new there. He was always busy, it seemed like he did nothing but work. He might as well replace the security guard of this company. “Come on, Lix, I know you like me being here. I’m the one who makes you happy while you bury yourself in your work,” I teased, but he just rolled his eyes at me and continued working at his desk. “Don’t you have a business to run, J? You’re like a mushroom, popping up out of nowhere,” I sat down in his receiving area and poured myself some tea. He always had some, of course, he’s a businessman. “Well, my secretary can handle that, and if not, he will call me,” I glanced at Kalix, took a sip of the tea, and winced a bit because it was hot. “Spill,” he suddenly said, which made me laugh. “Don’t look at me like that, it makes me shiver. I have my gun here, so don’t try anything.” “Fuck you,” I replied, raising my
