“Harris!” I call out. I want to hug him. Who would have thought, right? “It worked!” We are finally outside! I am laughing-crying as it seems like all the pain I feel in my body has evaporated. It is a miracle. We are alive! “Where are you?” Struggle to stand up but I am eager to find Harris. I want to celebrate this day with the person who has done this with me. I keep calling out to him but I don’t hear his voice. His silence slowly grows on me. I start to panic. I can hear the distant roar of the cars outside the gates but I can’t hear anything from Harris. The moment that I can see properly I look around in desperation. No... No... I realize that I am alone. “Harris! Where are you!” I shout. “This is not funny!” I walk around the area hoping to find a body lying on the ground. I am hoping that maybe, he is just thrown a bit farther than where I am... but there is none. No... no... no... Harris... I slowly look back at the hotel as Harris’ voice ring in my head shouting Don’t
The Passion House Epilogue
The smell of coffee wakes me up from my slumber. It was lingering inside my room, and as I slowly opens my eyes, the gentle sunlight from my room window greets me with a good morning. Oh, I’m home.I snuggle inside my blankets as I stop myself from crying. I don’t understand why I am suddenly feeling emotional as undecipherable distant memories start to flood my brain. My room definitely just looks like how it was before. It is still full of vibrant pastel-colored things and walled in white. However, I feel like someone died. Or maybe I lost someone so close to me.I sit down on the corner of my bed and run my hands on my hair. I have this feeling that there’s an emptiness within my heart. I hear a plate drop outside my room so I run downstairs in confusion. There, I saw my mom preparing our breakfast in her lovely white apron. I’m stunned. Surprised even. She’s picking up the broken tableware carefully so she will not cut herself. She notices that I am there, looking at her like a m
The Passion House Prologue
The sun was shining brightly when a farmer was walking towards the market from his small farmland. With a vegetable-filled twine basket on his back, he trotted slowly on the mountainside with a rod on his right hand. The heat started to take its toll on his aged tanned skin as he felt the sweat on his forehead. It was already 9 in the morning. He needed to sell his harvest to the market or he won’t be able to eat for the day. His dirty clothes were freshly washed but looked worn due to constant wearing and the dirt from the street. Passing through his usual route, the dust brought by the passing vehicles made him sneeze. His old body began to tremble as he clumsily stepped on his holed worn white turned brown slippers, and broke it. He let out a sigh as he picked it up and started limping because he only had one slipper left, continued to his quest. Soon enough, he saw a river that triggered his thirst. Once he got to the riverbanks, he sat, cupped his hands, and took some water to

Chaos. If there is a word that best describes what is currently happening in my life, that will bechaos.It is raining heavily outside and I am riding a bus towards my parent’s house in my hometown, Viewmonte. Nothing much happened actually, my bestselling book has been accused of being plagiarized, my company hasn’t taken the time to investigate and are deciding whether to fire or file a complaint against me, and my boyfriend of 7 years has told me that he wants to stop everything between us. What a lucky life, huh? A phone call wakes me up from my reverie. It is from my manager, Trisha. A text message from her arrives a

The smell of coffee wakes me up from my slumber. It was lingering inside my room, and as I slowly opens my eyes, the gentle sunlight from my room window greets me with a good morning. A month has passed since I have arrived here in my hometown. Nothing much has happened since.I snuggle inside my blankets as I try to observe my room. It definitely just looks like how it was before. It is full of vibrant pastel-colored things and walled in white. My bed frame is white and it has pastel pink blankets, light purple and blue pillows, some teddies on the wall, and a small library on the opposite wall. I also have a white study table beside my bed and the lamp usually serves as my light in the evening and that gives my room a cozy and subtle glow. In front of my study table lies a wide window where the morning light goes in and a white curtain. Behind it, is a view of my mother’s garden. My room is located on the 2nd floor of our house.After appreciating my room, I sit down
The Passion House III
Thankfully, I have a spare key for our car so I enter it once I reach the mall’s parking lot. I can still feel my insides shaking as I try to calm myself down. I lock the car from the inside and hug my two feet. I am still trembling. I am afraid. I have thought I am ready but I am not. I just cry there, feeling disappointed in myself.I left my mom there. I ran away.I should have faced my demons, but I ran away. Clearly, I am a coward. After a while, I feel mom open the car, I do not dare to lift my head up. I just lay there motionless as she put everything that we have bought in the compartment. She thanks some of the staff who have helped her and give them tips. They say thank you while they leave. My mom then enters and while she is closi
The Passion House IV (Part I)
Never in my wildest dreams have I ever thought that I will be able to step foot inside a hotel this grand. The golden gates open their arms as our car drives towards the hotel entrance- welcoming us to a world of luxury and sophistication. The palm trees line up on the center island like royal guards who stand mightily awing its audience with its magnificent stance. Far ahead lies the Hotel in its full glamour. Although I’m at least a kilometer away from it, I can already see its brilliance. I can’t help but let my jaw drop as I try to intake its incomparable. “Wow,” My mom and I can’t help but mutter. My mom lowers the car’s stereo’s volume singing the Eagles’ biggest hits - her favorite- as we try to savor the moment of our entrance. Ca
The Passion House IV (Part II)
I have never been mesmerized in my life except when I have entered this place. This place is indeed sparkling in a lot of ways. Entering that open door, we have found an elevator on the left side. Jack presses the button of the elevator and I can’t help myself but observe on my spot the things that surround me. Its doors are as clear as a golden mirror. Above us hangs many bird-shaped warmly lit droplights. Somehow, they look like comets that are falling from the sky or majestic birds that are flying around us. Also, unlike the lobby, the walls of this hallway are painted in white on the top and are gold-painted halfway to the bottom. There are also gold swirling patterns that are visible on the canvass. Beside the elevator door lies waist-high white in gold details columns with potted plants on top of it. On our feet is a red carpet that extends across the hallway.

The Passion House XX Final Chapter (Part I)
I immediately open my eyes after I heard the voice and look around. What the hell is happening? I can’t help myself from smiling when I imagine myself opening my eyes inside my room. I miss those plain painted walls and my soft bed. And then I would wake up to my mom baking cookies and the smell of freshly brewed coffee consumed the entire house. I kind of regret not appreciating those little things that I have before we have gone here. However, that smile does not last long when I realize what is happening. It is already bright outside as I feel the warmth of the sun surrounds the entirety of the room. However, the golden walls have drained the life out of my entire body when I notice that we are still inside The Passion House. The water sprinkler system turns on but it is not stopping the fire. There are various explosions that we can hear as the fire quickly spreads around the entire hotel. I hold tighter to Harris when the fire appears in front of us like a snake, devouring ever
The Passion House XIX (Part IV)
He sounds so sincere and I can see through his eyes that he has been so earnest. I can feel that what he says is true. And before I knew it... I am here, eyes closed, and am kissing him in this fucked world.His kisses, as before, are so slow and gentle. It feels like he is taking his time and is just enjoying the moment he is sharing with me. I can’t help but smile as he teases my lips with his. Biting, sucking, and devouring me with unspoken promises that I wish he will fulfill. His right hand is caressing my left cheek. He pulls me closer I gasp for air when feel his left hand on my back, rubbing me softly. I put my arms around his neck as I can feel the arousal rise within me. He pulls away to look at me and his stare leaves me wanting for...“more...” I find myself breathing unconsciously. Completely enchanted by what he is doing to me.I know that this is not the right time to be thinking like this especially when we are trying to do our escape, but I can’t help it. Just like wh
The Passion House XIX (Part III)
The chef’s blood goes squirting around the floor when Harris cut his life from his neck. His lifeless body then rests on the top of the black bag with a thud. I take a step back as I feel myself shaking, scared of the event that happened in front of me. I look at Harris, his face is dark and his hand that is holding the knife is up in the air. He is shaking, too, and turns to look at me. Seeing my face, it seems like he has been brought back to his senses. He lets go of the knife and it falls down on the floor clanking loudly. He brings his hands in front of him as he stares at it in disbelief. His hands are bloody. His eyes are so lost. He looks at me and I feel scared for Him. “Amy...” He starts as I hear his voice crack, “I-I killed a man.” I have to do something. I go near him and pushed him to the side to let him collect himself. I push down the corpse on the floor and drag it towards the storage room although it is very heavy. I think that this is because of the adrenaline in m
The Passion House XIX (Part II)
Good thing that Harris is not that far away from me because when I open the door to attack the chef, he immediately drags me back into our hiding spot and keeps me from exposing our safety. After all, we don’t have any weapon with us, unlike the enemy. The well-polished knives are located behind him while he’s facing us. Any attempt to attack him without any proper plan is just suicide. “Amy, what do you think you are doing? Are you trying to expose us up?” he whispers to me as he continues to look outside. I'm still amazed how the chef has not noticed us yet. The chef has not noticed usyet. How? “Are you really going to be the one who’s going to stop me, Harris?! I thought you would understand,” I whisper with gritted teeth but he ignores me as
The Passion House XIX (Part I)
My heart is throbbing inside my chest as I gasp for air.What just happened? I slightly push myself away from Harris. I meet his eyes, “What is going-” he cuts me off as he put one of his hands to cover my mouth while the other signals me to-shh. He then moves his fingers to point in a direction behind me. I turn my head around and see a huge man walking around the kitchen floor. It turns out that we are not the only people here. Is he a survivor, too? Or a mere employee? And also, why does it seem like although he has thrown a knife at us earlier, he does not appear to be aware of other people in the kitchen right now? “He must be the head chef,” I hear Harris whisper. The man is indeed wearing a chef’s uniform with a black apron. He is short and quite fat with a mustache just above his mouth. He turns around while tapping on the tables as if he is looking for something. I look back at us and notice
The Passion House XVIII
“Jane! We need to burn the hotel!” I tell her with my voice ringing in the air. I can also tell a sign of relief from Jane’s face as her eyes brighten and a genuine smile gently forms on her lips.That’s it. Maybe this is the way out.I start to feel giddy as I feel a slight ray of hope brim in my heart once again.This could be it, right?“We should create a plan now! Where can we find fire hazards?” I go to Harris, “Harris, we can finally leave this place!” I hug him in delight. “We can finally escape this nightmare.”“Yeah,” I hear him say as his eyes gleam under the moonlight.Finally, we can now go.I go back to Jane to ask more questions.I hold her hands while I look at her eyes, “Jane. We can finally wake up! Tell me, what should we do? What’s the plan? You guys know how this place works. Tell me so we ca
The Passion House XVII
“HOW DARE YOU DO THIS TO US!” I shout when I reach her. I can no longer stop myself. I need to release all this pent-up anger inside of me. I tried to nab her face but my hands fall short when two of the white-robed people holds both of my arms. Their grip is strong like well-trained men and they are now carrying me up in the air in no time.“HOW CAN YOU DO THIS PEOPLE?!” I am still shouting and being hysterical.I lost everyone I lost my mom. I lost my friends. And there is no assurance of me waking up anymore.“How can you do this?” I cry and I feel the two men put me on the ground. I kneel in front of them, “Please get me back my mom.”I beg.“Please find a way for me to wake up.”“Please tell me that this is not real.”“Please tell me that the ghosts are lying.&rdq
