Snippets (One shots)

Snippet 2 - Bitter

Everything was perfect.

Everything was pure bliss.

Or so I thought it was...

Or so I thought it was...

I thought finally I was cast in a fairytale...

I thought finally I'd have my ever after...

A chance to be the prince...

A chance to be the princess...

Unfortunately....

Unfortunately...

My princess has fled.

My prince has fled.

She left me.

He left me.

Alone, empty, with nowhere to call home.

Broken, lost, wandering how to reach home.

But I could not be more thankful...

But I could not be happier...

For in heartache...

For in my wanders...

I found joy.

I reached home.

I found her.

I found him.

"Kief..."

Tinapik ko siya. We've been lying on a mat for god knows how long. Ever since umuwi kami dito sa province niya two days ago, ngayon lang kami nagka quality time together pero ang mokong, natutulog lang.

It was sunset and we decided to lie down on the beach to kill the time. Pero para atang mas tumagal ang usad ng oras kasi hindi naman kami nag-uusap.

Kief: Hmmmm?

Yan. Ganyan lang siya. Everytime I try to start a convo, ganyan lang ang sagot niya. Sarap niyang kausap di ba? But somehow naiintindihan ko rin naman. Pagod siya. Katatapos lang ng season nila and dumiretso agad kami rito for his cousin's wedding which was yesterday. Today lang talaga siya nagka time to rest.

Ly: If there was someone you'd like to thank aside from your family, sino yun?

Upon hearing my question, he sat up right away. Sus yun lang pala makakapag trigger ng interest niyang makipag-usap sakin.

I looked over at him and he had his brows together.

Ly: Ano?

Kief: Okay. Where's this coming from?

He looked at me suspiciously. Haha! For sure ninenerbyos na naman to na baka awayin ko siya. I laughed at his expression.

Kief: Ikaw Alyssa ha wag mokong pinagttripan. Wag ngayon. Pagod ako.

Ly: Chill, babe. I am just asking. Promise, di kita aawayin.

Kief: Sure ka, ha?

I nodded and raised my right hand.
