Out There

~Introduction~

Kakarating pa lang ng Aussie-Filipino na si Lance Winchester sa Pilipinas mula Australia ay hinila na kaagad siya ng kaniyang pinsan sa isang liblib na café para magkape. Yes, magkape, when what Lance needed was sleep because of jet lag. But who could resist his persuasive, whiny cousin na boyfriend ang may-ari ng bahay na tinutuluyan niya ngayon? Maybe it's him. There's something that's pulling him to get out of the house.

What he doesn't know is that destiny is taking its course. Ang destiny ang may dahilan kung bakit hinila siya ng pinsan niya dahil hindi siya masasamahan ng 'honeybunch' niya, ang destiny na yan ang may dahilan kung bakit siya natapunan ng Iced Mocha, at kung bakit nagtangka na siyang mag-walk out kung hindi lang niya narinig ang boses na punong-puno ng hinanakit maging malalim na pag-ibig na nagmula sa isang spoken word artist na si Anna na sandaling nakapagpatigil nang kaniyang mundo at kung pahihintulutan, nang kaniyang buhay.

•Prologue•

     ~I was walking in a dimly-lit street when I noticed a girl sitting alone in a bench by a nearby park. She's clutching a bag— more like hugging it–as if her life depends on it.

Go to her.

      I saw silent tears run down her eyes, then I saw her shake. She's ready to fall apart, but somehow, she held herself together and desperately wiped the tears away from her face. She looked up and saw me, her eyes pleading, seeking salvation.

      She needs someone. Anyone.

Go to her.

      I tried to go to her, but I can't. I'm glued to where I stand.

Go to her. Don't fail her now.

      I flailed and struggled, but it's still no use. I tried pulling my legs upward but they won't budge.

Go to her.

      I looked up, and saw her still staring at me. She looks down then looked at me again but I know she's about to give up.

No.

      She can't be saved, her bright, brown eyes said.

No.

Go to her. Go to her.

      She stood up, and I watched her as she leaves. Dumbfounded.

She can't be saved, she said.

      But I can't save myself  either, as I break in that wretched dimly-lit street in the dark.~

I woke up.

Author's Note:
