Chapter 1: Selah's day

"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." I sighed as I watched him from afar. "Great battles are won in prayer," I muttered and took out a lollipop from my bag and sucked it. Sweet. Life would become any sweeter if I often focused on winning souls. But it didn't turn out the way I wanted it, I can't have my breakthrough. The moment I placed my eyes on him, there I already knew that he was detained by darkness. His raven irises scream for help and behind his cold emotion, I knew he was in deep grief. I never saw him smile, his serious tone of voice was trying to enclose the pain he always wanted to voice out. I once thought I was the only one who suffered a bitter life, but whenever I see him, he is way more gloomy and dull than I am. He's shattered and ruined, and here I am doing my best to give him relief. His presence s

Chapter 2: Archer Evanz

The guy in a black stood quietly in front of the bungalow, not minding if some people on the sidewalk looked at him with frightened eyes. He was unfamiliar, and judging by the luggage beside him, he must be a newbie.His lackluster eyes turned to them with a glint of annoyance. The dark circles below those balls of mystery looked like shadows that added to the mysterious vibe he was carrying, and that was enough to disperse the little crowd. He doesn't like attention. He doesn't like people prying onto his business instead of minding their own.He started taking the boxes inside. But he didn't bother to arrange them right away. He had a few things, it would be over before sunset. He decided to go out again, just to take some breaths of fresh air, get familiar with the ambiance of his new place, and find some secluded places where he could hang out in the coming days.Fortunately, there wasn't any curious group of people in front of his gate. But should there be some no goods who'd floc

Chapter 3: Light & Darkness

Selah sat uncomfortably on the cafeteria chair, trying to avoid Archer's eyes. He's looking at her with such a curious expression, but she doesn't have the courage to sit with him and say hi. Archer looks very cold, he aggravates Selah's shyness, which is not like her at all. She's assertive and brave, she doesn't get so easily intimidated. But those auburn balls of mystery seem to dive deeper than her soul.The tension just eased when Archer stood and left the cafeteria. Whispers started to buzz. The subject of the past days' gossip already appeared for the entire school to see. And apparently, he just drove girls even wilder. Anna just sighed and turned to her friend seated quietly beside her."Look at these little crazies. I'm betting Archer is already annoyed with them," she said, looking around with a contorted face. "They've been hounding him since this morning. Especially that Olivia. She's really getting on my nerves. First, you. Now, Archer." Selah was a little surprised that

Chapter 4: When She's Weak

School hours have ended and the students have already rushed their way home. It was almost six o'clock in the evening and Selah hadn't decided to drop home before going to Anna's place. She dislikes the idea of seeing her older brother who will probably beat her to death before she could come out again. The cold breeze brushes her skin and she sighs, she likes the cool atmosphere but she forgot to bring her hoodie jacket with her. "Now, I have no choice but to go home and change," she mumbled to herself. She quietly walks down the street with an occupied mind. It's so unusual for her to act this way, these past few weeks, she noticed how she's becoming someone she wanted to forget and bury in the grave - her old self. "Selah?" It was too soon to realize that she passed by the subdivision's entrance. Selah turned her head to see the man who called her name, he was standing from the distance and he wears blue pajamas with messy hair on them. To Selah's eyes, he appears as someone who

Chapter 5: Missing Piece

"Have we ever asked ourselves why would God come into this world to save a sinner like us?" asked the guy who sits comfortably on the couch in front of the two girls sitting across him with a cup of milk in his hand. He looked at them. He was told that he's assigned to share tonight and he wants to pierce their hearts with encouraging words. Meanwhile, Selah sits at the corner while hugging a pillow. The words she's hearing are somewhat bugging her mind. She has the same question even before she got to know the value of salvation. "Why would God come down into the world to save me?" she asked herself. Anna heard her."What do you think?" Anna asked with a smile on her face."Sometimes that question really bothers me, I might know the answer but I don't know why I'm still not convinced." That was the most honest answer she could think of. "That's not a tough question though, we all know that God truly loves us. He just does, and we can't do anything about it." Anna, on the other hand

06. Sudden Ties

"She could be the missing piece." Before Selah could finally go, she heard him mumble so she bothered to gaze at him again, "Did you say something?" Archer glanced at her for the ninth time. He can see that she is concerned about something, then he noticed the little bruises on her cheeks. His eyes traveled even more and he caught the mild scratches on her hands. He concluded that something has happened to her, or she did it to herself. "Why are you here in the middle of the night?" And again, Archer asks the same question again. Selah seems to hear it clearly so she snapped and had to step forward and answer his question."I couldn't sleep, and I love watching the night skies. So I thought I could go out and spend a moment here alone," she replied and that made Archer shape a smirk on his face. "And you're not afraid?" He plainly asked. Selah let a sigh escape from her mouth, "The only thing that scares me is the monster who lives under the same roof as me." It sounds like a joke

Chapter 7: Her Dim Lights

The clouds cover the blue sky and the sun is about to set. Selah hurried her feet to walk near the seashore as she deeply gazed at the ocean, mesmerizing every tip of the waves it creates whenever it dashes on the sands. It's getting late and the night is fast approaching. Her afternoon classes just ended and she doesn't want to go straight home. she still wonders where she might drop by to buy something to munch. But honestly, she skipped her final class considering that she almost got into a fight again. It never happened once, it's Selah's daily struggle actually. Getting into fights and being involved in trouble? Those were her things. She would convince her mind that it's never her fault, to begin with. Right now, she felt like giving herself space. A lot of stuff happened today and it's slowly draining her. She wouldn't know unless she stays at the seashore and admires the beauty of the waves. Giving herself enough time to stare at the sky the entire night would make her calm d
