2021-07-10 19:26:13Tatlong araw akong 'di pinapasok ni Prynce dahil doon. Halos isang araw din kami nag-away dahil doon. I was saying I am fine and I can go to school the day after it, but he's, yes, persistent. Wala akong nagawa kundi ang sundin siya. He could really get annoying once he can't get what he wants.
"Pryce? Okay ka na?"
Pagkapasok ko palang ng classroom ay para na akong artista. Dinagsa ako nina Dandy. Pinagtitinginan pa nga kami ng iba naming kaklase. I put my backpack on the side of my table and sat comfortably.
"I'm fine. Hindi lang ako pinapasok ni Prynce," I answered and sat. Hindi nila ako tinantanan hanggang hindi ko sinasabi kung anong nangyari sa 'kin at bakit bigla akong nawala ng tatlong araw, and I told them the truth. I kept on fainting.
Half day lang ang klase ngayon dahil malapit na ang foundation day ng school at CL days. Pinapapractice kami ng kung ano man ang pinapapractice, pero ang alam ko'y balak na naman tumakas ng kaibigan ko, gaya

If his real name was Ezequiel Alcazar, then why did he introduced himself as EileerMontesclaros to us?Tahimik kaming dalawa ni Keos habang binabaybay ang maingay na daan ng Davao. This city was peaceful, and really, goddamn clean. Wala ata akong nakitang basura sa daan nila. Kung meron man, maliliit lang na dahon."Ezequiel... I mean, Eileer... how long has he been to your school?" basag ni Keos sa katahimikan. Maybe he's uncomfortable with silence. Halata kasing dada ring siyang tao. Kagaya nalang ni Suarez."A month or so... I didn't track.""Pa'no pala kayo nagkilala? Classmates?""Yeah. And club mate. He's a member of glee club.""Oh, wow. I didn't know EJstill wanted music after what happen.""Why, what happen?" I asked. Bigla nalang nito nakuha ang interes kong kanina lang ay umalis."Hindi mo alam? Doesn't he open up to you? Mukha kasi kayong close. He's really worried when he called me and asked

A knock on the door woke me up. I annoyingly eyed the dark oak wood. Tangina, ang aga, sino ba 'tong nangangatok?!Pupungas-pungas, tinungo ko ang pintuan at maingat itong binuksan. I put myself in a defensive stance and yawned when Eileer's face appeared in front of my face!"Oy, putangina, ingat naman! I might get a heart attack!"I saw Eileerchuckled and opened the door widely for him to enter. May dala-dala itong paper bag galing sa isang mamahaling restaurant. Napakamot siya at pinatong ang paper bag sa isang lamesa. I sat and observed him.As I keep on looking at where his hands are, I noticed that he got a haircut.Undercut?Oh, right. I haven't seen him the whole day. Where could he possibly be earlier?Bahagya akong napailing. It's not that I am curious! I'm just wondering... I heard from Suarez and his friend that he's good in school, so he's probably not that type of student who goes MIA for a day, right?

When I thought that a distorted-faced Prynce I'd be greeted with, I was surprised when it was the opposite of it."Uh, kuya, alis na po ako. Hinatid ko lang po talaga si Pryce para po siguradong safe," natatawang ani ni Eileer at may pahabol pang joke na sinabi. Tumawa naman si kuya at sinakyan ang joke ni Eileer.What the fuck... is happening?I came back to my senses when I felt a pair of hands shaking me from side to side."Sa susunod na namang sleepover, ha? Ang saya no'n. Sa bukid naman tayo next," I was seriously confused of what he said. I was about to asked what the hell is he saying, but he made in eyes big on purpose. Sinadya niya ring nilapit ang sariling bibig sa tenga ko."I'm gonna text you once I'll set foot on my house. May sasabihin ako..." he then plastered a big smile, like saying I should ride on what stunt he just pulled.Napakunot ang noo ko at tumango nalang. Pilit akong ngumiti. Putangina, ano bang nangyayari?

"Few people knew what my true name was. I'm not hiding it, but I'm also not publicizing it. I come from a renowned Cebu family, lived in a Beverly Hills-style subdivision, and believed my life might be one of those they dubbed paradise, but it isn't." He constantly shake his lack-of-icemilktea as he talks about his life. I insisted him not to talk about it, because if I were in his place, I'd be very uncomfortable to talk about my life on some stranger I just met months ago. But he was persistent, he just talked. I had no choice but to listen and keep it a secret, if he wanted it to be one. "Dahil galing sa isang classical musician ang pamilya, kailangan kong sundan kung ano man ang sinimulan nila. I continued it as I studied in MMIS, with my brother who was free as a bird from my parents' demands, which I envied the most. But I love my parents, I love my brother.I know they simply wanted me to be the next them, just like my brother showed that he could thrive

Kabanata 11I decided to avoid him. For a while.Dumating ang lunes, araw na simula noon pang Sabado ko pa pinapanalangin na hindi sana dadating.Nakauwi kami ng malinaw ni Eileer, and since I am such a great pretender, our day went smooth. But the truth is, I cannot stand still. It felt like something was missing in me after he told me his story. And the last thing he said… putangina, minsan ayoko na lang mag-isip.“Pryce?”Napukaw ako ng isang tawag na nagmula pala kay Adrian. I immediately put back my notebook beneath my table and intentionally cough as if letting something inside my throat out. Hinarap ko ng maayos si Adrian at pilit na nangiti.He walked closer and I noticed he brought a purple notebook with him. It’s looks like an attendance. Baka may meeting ulit ang committee.

Hello! This is HecateAstraea, author of Silence. I just want you to know that I am taking little long break as my tremors of my left hand came back and I have to take medication again. My health has deteriorated a little, the reason why I stopped updating for awhile, as per the Doctor's request. I hated updating when I am sick since my stories would probably go downwards. 5 chapters will be uploaded at the end of the month, and this book should be finished before the second week of August. After that, I'll be uploading another story so stay tuned! I hope you all understand. I'll be back really soonest. Thank you for waiting patiently!

Kabanata 12“Eileer,” I called after a few minutes of being quite. I sighed.“8.”I stopped fidgeting my fingers.“8 sighs. Isa sa room, lima sa sasakyan, dalawa dito sa bahay nila Harlett.”Napalingon ako sa kanya, only to see him watching me so closely. A stare you could tell that he doesn’t want to blink or he’ll see nothing but my shadow only.“I’m glad they let us have this time. I am not forcing you in any way, Pryce. But I just wanted to ask… did I somehow made you uncomfortable?” tanong niya.Hindi ko alam kung anong reaksyon ang nagawa ko, pero alam kong ito ang sagot mismo sa tanong ni Eileer nang tumango-tango siya at may mapait na ngiti sa labi.He let his body rest beside the counter, his head at the top of his palm.

Kabanata 13Malakas kong kinatok ang pintuan ng glee club room, nagbabakasakaling nasa loob ang guro, at tama naman ako. Bitbit ang isang libro ng nota, pinagbuksan ako ni Sir Diosdico ng pintuan.Here goes nothing.“Oh, Achacoso? I was about to call you for the recital, but I guess I don’t have to.”I was about to say that I am there for the gig when the dean suddenly popped out of nowhere. Pilit akong napangiti.“Good noon po, Dean.”Hinawi niya si sir Diosdico at hinarap ako ng maayos, may nagmamakaawang ngiti sa mga labi. Hinawakan niya ang kamay ko.“Achacoso, alam ko naman na busy kayo dahil sa recital niyo, but could you reconsider the gig offer? Jose forgot to mention that you’ll be paid. It was a resort owned by my cousin, and I cannot say no since he knows our school has a good reputatio

Kabanata 14Akala ko dati, madaling magbasa ng emosyon ng ibang tao. Malalaman mo agad ang tao kapag galit ‘pag hindi ito namamansin, o kaya’y medyo agresibo ang pagtrato niya sa ‘yo. Malalaman mo kapag malungkot ‘yung tao, kapag hindi tama ang ngiti nito. Malalaman mo kapag masaya ang tao sa paraaan ng pananalita nito.Actually, madali naman talaga, lalo na kapag ang sarili mong naramdaman na ang usapan.But what I felt right now was beyond unfathomable.“Nay, dalawang kwek-kwek, tatlong isaw, tapos dalawang buko juice, nga po.”Nakita kong may maliit na ngiting sinusupil ang tindera. “Jowa mo ba, ‘nak?”Both Eileer and I got tongue tied about what she said. Unti-unti akong umiling habang si Eileer ay malakas na natawa.“Naku, nay, hindi po. Close friend lang, ka-banda ko po.&rd
