"Are you on drugs?" Seryosong tanong ni Kenna sa pinsan. "It's been only a month since the school started."
"Time is an illusion." MacKenzie replied as a matter of fact. Yanique and Naya laughed.
"Ikaw ang nag-iilusyon." Kenna said. "Well anyway, days ago while I was strolling around the campus I saw a dog boarding kennel. I wanted to go inside but I didn't have enough time to stay longer."
"Why is there a kennel here in school?" MacKenzie asked.
"Siguro yung mga estudyante na nagdodorm dito, dinadala nila yung mga aso at dun nila nilalagay. Binibisita lang pag may free time to relieve stress." Naya said. Of course she knew about the place.
"Pwede tayong pumunta kahit wala naman tayong aso dun?" Yanique asked.
"Hmm, payag naman yung ibang estudyante na may ari. Pero merong iba na ayaw, nakaprivate yung sa kanila." Kenna

One morning, Naya remembered that her mother's birthday was only five days away. When they went to their first class, she was a little at lost thinking about something. Before going to their first class, she felt a nudged on her shoulder."You okay?" Kenna asked."Hmm, just thinking something." Naya replied.Hanggang sa magtanghalian sila sa cafeteria ay kapansin pansin ang katahimikan ni Naya.MacKenzie leaned at Kenna and whispered. "Anong nangyari kay mare?""I don't know, she's like that since this morning. It's kinda bothering me now. I don't think I did something wrong with her either." Kenna answered and tried to recall everything that had happened since yesterday."Mare, okay ka lang ba?" Tanong ni MacKenzie kay Naya. Napansin ni MacKenzie na parang hindi narinig ni Naya ang tanong niya. Tinawag niya ang pangalan nito. "Nayasha Lopez.""Huh? Ahh, I'm sorry. Did you say something?" Naya replied in daze."Okay ka la

The next morning Naya was in deep thought again. There was clearly something wrong with Seth Lawrence. She hadn't receive any messages from him."Hey you're thinking of your mom again?" Kenna asked gently."No," Naya shook her head. "Have you seen Seth yesterday? Or Gian and his band?" Naya asked."Hindi. Bakit?" Kumunot ang noo ni Kenna."Nothing." Naya replied in low voice.In the afternoon Naya was sure to herself, Seth was avoiding her and she didn't know why. Before her second class in the morning she saw him and he also saw her, but he looked away and acted like he hadn't saw her. She somehow felt helpless thinking what she did wrong.After her first class in the afternoon Naya saw Gian. She approached him and asked about Seth."Kasama ko nga kanina pero umalis agad, medyo busy siya ngayon eh. Pinatawag kanina ng mommy niya." Tugon ni Gian.Tumango naman si Naya. "Is everything okay? Why do I feel like he's av

Naya saw that Seth was still looking at her with worried eyes. She took his right hand and intertwined it with hers. "I'll be fine." She assured.Seth sighed and opened the front passenger seat. Naya calmly sitted inside to prove to the other that she's fine. She felt Seth stares while walking around to the driver's seat. When he sat inside, he looked at her as if checking any change of emotions. When he made sure that she's alright, he nodded at her and started the engine of the vehicle.Gaya ng apartment ni Sidney ay malapit lang din ang apartment ni Seth sa school. Tahimik lang silang dalawa sa loob ng sasakyan. Naya felt that Seth was stealing glances from time to time."Okay lang talaga ako. You should focus on the road." Naya stated."I'm just worried." Seth said while driving.They reached Seth's place in just minutes. Seth's place is a little bigger than Sidney's. Tahimik silang bumaba ng sasakyan, Seth took Naya's hand and brought her insi

Like the usual, Naya and Yanique have the same course schedule on their music history. Their class is in the sophomore's building. On their way to the class, Naya and Yanique came across with Vanessa. Recently after seeing her cousin again, Naya always crossed path with the girl. "Naya, I saw you again." Vanessa said to Naya and glanced at Yanique. Naya noticed Vanessa's burning gaze at Yanique. The girl is not really hiding it at all and Naya knows that Yanique noticed it too. "Hey, you again." Naya replied. "Duveen's annual violin and piano competition is approaching, you think there's a master professor who will recommend you?" Vanessa opened up, her tone had a hint of mocking. Naya smiled at Vanessa, "hmm I don't know. Let's see." Naya didn't really want to exchange mocking or any inappropriate words with her cousin. Ayaw niyang magsayang ng laway at oras para lang labanan ang walang kwentang pang kukutya nito. Kung maglalaba

Naging usap usapan ang tungkol sa announcement para sa nalalapit na annual competition. Ang pinaka pinag uusapan ay ang pangalan ni Naya na tatlong beses na nakasulat sa listahan. May kumuha pa ng litrato dun at pinost sa forum. Marami agad ang nag komento pag ka post ng list sa forum. Comment 1: Damn I can't believe three master professors actually chose Nayasha Lopez. Comment 2: Two of the mps who chose her are both Duveen, Mrs. Madisson and Ms. Rosie Leigh. Comment 3: There are only two freshman who made it on the list. I'm not familiar with the other one but she was always with Nayasha. And they're both recognized by the Duveens. Comment 4: Nayasha Lopez is really powerful. I think we can all agree that she will win the national.▶reply: +1: +2: +3: +4:.... Comment 5: Oh don't forget about Nayasha's cousin. Vanessa is also on the list, damn this year's competition is really interesting. Comment 6: Vanes

Sa sumunod na weekend ay dinala si Naya ng dad niya sa isang private indoor shooting range na sa tingin niya ay pag aari ng mga Sanchez. Nakasunod sa kanila ang isa pang sasakyan na may dalawang bodyguards at isang doktor. Kasama nila Naya si Yanique sa sasakyan, alam na ng dad niya na nalaman niya ang totoong pagkatao ni Yanique. Hindi naman nadismaya ang ama niya nang sabihin ni Yanique ang natuklasan niya. Mukhang expected na nito na hindi magtatagal ay mahahalata din niya at malalaman na personal security niya si Yanique. Pagdating sa lugar ay si Yanique ang nagdala sa kanila sa loob. Sumunod sila papasok at nakitang nandoon ang ama ni Yanique. Nakangiti itong sumalubong sa kanila. Pinakilala naman ni Nathan ang anak at ang doktor na kasama sa kaibigan. Yanique's father and the doctor greeted each other. "So this is your daughter Nayasha? She doesn't look vulnerable to me." Yanique's father commented while looking at Naya. Inak

Everyone panicked when they saw Naya cried in Seth's arms. Nathan was the most worried, he quickly signaled the doctor to get ready. He was just right beside the two looking at them with mixed emotions.Seth didn't know what's the right thing to do, he just caressed Naya's back and head to calm her."It's okay, it's okay.. you're okay. Just let it out. We're here." Seth gently said. He thought that Naya was hurting and had flashbacks that's why she broke down and cried. But in a minute or two Naya loosened her hold and faced him with tears on her face. She smiled at him and hugged him again before separating her body from him."I'm okay, I'm just overwhelmed with happiness." Naya said to Seth and dried her tears after taking off the eyeglass. She also took off her ear protection and then faced her father. "Dad.." she hugged her father who looked really worried. "Dad, I'm okay dad.""I was scared and worried." Nathan replied in reli

Dahil palaging busy sa school, sa pag practice at paghahanda sa nalalapit na kompetisyon ay di na namalayan nina Kenna at Naya na may isang araw na lang sila bago ang araw ng first round ng kompetisyon."This thing is getting real, I can't believe I'll have my first competition as a violinist."

Kenna is practicing her piece and she asked Naya to observe her play."You'll be okay, you have a good choice of piece and you play it really well." Naya replied."I'm just a little nervous, did you also felt this way during your first competition?""Hmm, pero halo halo yung nararamdaman ko pagkakita ko ibang players. Oo mayroong kaba pero excited din na magpatugtog sa harap ng katunggali at audience. You know you get people to hear your play and show off your talent.

Clear sky, good weather and a quiet place. In a whole wide space of the cemetery, a happy couple can be seen standing hand in hand in front of a tomb. "Mom, we're here again." Naya greeted as she stared down the tomb. She knelt down and caressed the name engraved on the stone. Then, she lay a bouquet of flowers in front. "I am with Seth again, he said we should come here today. Nagpapalakas ata sayo." Naya kidded receiving a low laugh from Seth. "Silly, we came here because I know your mom will happy to see you visiting her from time to time." Seth also sitted beside her. They talked and shared to her mother about the current happenings in their lives and how happy and peaceful she is now with her family, boyfriend and friends. And then they left the cemetery with her hand holding Seth's. Naya looked around and saw how peaceful the cemetery was. She remembered her rebirth, until now it's a mystery she can't figure out, until now it's still a q

Years later..Naya's supposedly death day.Seth unexpectedly dreamed of himself kneeling in front of a grave and was stunned seeing Naya's name engraved on the stone. He was crying and begging her to come back. Everything seems so real and even his pain and sorrow, it all felt so real.When he woke up, he found himself tearing up. He was relieved when he saw Naya's back in front of him. He snuggled closer to her body and hugged her tighter. He remember the date on the grave was today and it scared him more. He doesn't want to lose her, he'll lose his sanity if he was left alone without Naya in his side. He secretly sobbed as he tighten his hold around Naya.Naramdaman ni Naya ang paghigpit ng yakap sa kanya ng binata kaya napatingin siya dito at nagulat nang makita itong umiiyak. Agad niyang pinahiran ang mga luha nito at nag-aalalang tumingin dito."Hey.. what's wrong?" Naya asked worriedly.Seth shook his head. "Bad dreams, you can't leave m

Naya wanted to ask about Vanessa but she was too scared to hear what happened to her. But the next two days, she was surprised seeing Vanessa entering her room, seating on a wheel chair with Yanique on her back."You actually thought I'm dead didn't you?" Vanessa said in her btchy tone.Naya rolled her eyes on her, "see? Bad grasses don't really die easily." She countered.Vanessa tsked and thereafter, all of them laughed."I'm glad you are not dead." Naya said sincerely."Yeah, my mother kinda missed shooting the vulnerable part of my body." Vanessa replied nonchalantly."So, you can still live with us? You know my father has a lot of money and adding you to the family does not hurt. He can give what aunt Zalia can give." Naya stated honestly. She wanted to be with Vanessa and know her better."Aren't you scared of me?" Vanessa asked."Scared? No, you have a foul mouth and trust me your words are really offensive, but I

Naya just gritted her teeth feeling the minor discomfort. Oo, hindi gaanong masakit para sa kanya ang mga sampal ng tita niya. Walang wala yun sa mga sakit na napagdaanan niya. Walang wala yun kumpara sa sakit na naramdaman niya nang mawalan siya ng abilidad na makapagtugtog ng piano pagkatapos mainjure ang mga kamay niya. Tinitignan lang niya ng masama ang babaeng nasa harap niya at hindi nagpakita ng kahit konting takot o umiyak at magpakahina sa harap nito. Hindi niya yun ibibigay."Ahh.. your eyes are really telling me to hurt you more Yannie." Zalia was out of her mind. She kept seeing Yannie in front of her, looking at her like she's crazy that it infuriates her the most. She ordered for the whip and lashed Yannie while laughing."How was it Yannie, now scream! Be scared of me. You're nothing, you are worthless, you deserved to die! Beg! Beg me to stop, beg for my forgiveness."Naya was surprised when she saw Vanessa wearing black zippered jacket and black

Collapse, trampled, injuries, confrontation, car accident and rebirth. These are the words stuck in Nathan's head as he read the letter again and again.'I know it's all unbelievable, but please believe me. I survived the collapse because I already knew it will happen. I suffered in the past dad, you suffered in the past and I don't want it to happen again. Now if I head outside now, they will kidnapped me. I already sense something was up when I saw aunt Zalia came here with such triumphant smile. She knew she will succeed so I will help her. This is the only way I can think to prove to you that she is not the woman you think she is. Sorry, I didn't warn you, but this is the only way we can have evidence to finally get her. Don't let others know about this content. I'll wait for you to find me.' Says in the last part of the letter.Nathan was silent for a few minutes to absorb all the information he had just read.

They already expected the collab but the crowd still went crazy seeing Lavi's other side. The host had to stopped the audience from shouting and clapping because they did it non-stop when the two finished playing.

"This car really looks like yours." Naya said as she hopped inside the car."Hmm, and looks like you can't stay at Lawrence's for the time being." Yanique replied. "Seat belt," he reminded.Nagseatbelt naman si Naya bago nagsalita. "Yeah, they are starting to move again so we have to be extra careful now. Akala ko matatagalan pa bago sila gagalaw ulit.""I actually been wanting to ask you something."Naya looked at Yanique and tried to read his expression. "About what?" She asked."About the letter. What if the real culprit who killed your mom is the same person who is responsible for doing all of these. Napatay nga ng mga police ang pumatay sa mommy mo, pero paano kung merun ngang nagpapatay? Will you be okay facing that person?" Yanique straightforwardly and sensibly stated."I've been meeting her lately." Naya whispered. She looked at Yanique and smiled.

"Yanyan." Naya tried to wake up Yanique. Mahina lang ang pagtawag niya sa pangalan ng binata pero mukhang narinig nito.Nang buksan ni Yanique ang mga mata ay nakita niya si Naya sa pang isahang upuan na nakatingin sa kanya at nakangiti. Agad siyang nagtaka at umalis sa pagkakasandal kay Mackenzie."How did you get in here?" He asked in a low voice.Natawa si Naya sa tanong ni Yanique. "Iniwan niyong nakabukas ang pinto. Funny how you always reminds us to lock our door, but you left yours wide open.""What? I closed and locked it before I went to sleep." Agad na tumayo si Yanique at chineck ang paligid kung may kakaiba.Tahimik na pinanuod ni Naya ang binata na mabilis at maingat ang mga galaw sa paglibot at pagcheck ng mga gamit sa loob at sa kwarto gamit ang isang itim at maliit na device na parang scanner."Walang nawala at walang kakaiba dito sa loob."

Nuvole Bianche by Ludovico Einaudi. Pinili ni Naya ang piece para ilaan sa yumao niyang ina. Ang Nuvole Bianche ang isa sa pinakatumulong sa kanya na magpatuloy sa paglaban sa buhay. Ang piyesa ang tumulong at naging karamay niya nang mamatay ang mommy niya. Palagi niya iyun pinapatugtog at iyun din ang una niyang nilaro nang muli siyang nabuhay. Una niyang narinig ang tugtog nang nasa ibang bansa sila ng mommy niya at doon nanirahan pansamantala. Pinatugtog iyun ng mommy niya nang nagtanong siya ng pinakamagandang tugtog. When her mother began to play the piece it was indeed the most beautiful sound she heard. It gave her feelings she can't interpret. After the play, the melody lingers in her mind for a long time. The piece has three parts, divided by two pauses in the middle. The first and second parts have similar dynamic patterns, they start out weak and smooth. As the first melody begins, the sound unhurriedly and carefully builds to piano, and then to mezzo for
