No Title
I'm reconsidering to write an entry for this round because of three reasons:
1. MOST (if not all) of the judges don't even try to leave their comments on each entry which make me sad because I was looking forward to it, for me to improve my writing skills. At some point, I understand them, contestants will ask for comments and if the critic is not favourable to them, they will eventually start an argument with the judges. Reading books might work to improve one's writing skills, but application and execution on this skill with audience is a different case.
2. MOST (if not all) of the stories who are top scorer are written in English medium. They said English stories are more harmonic to the judges' eyes than the Filipino medium while some of them said that for a Filipino-medium user to make it on the top score is to make his story have a huge impact to the readers and give an unpredictable twist. This may be a fact or an opinion. I don't know either.
3. Finally, my last reason is that I'm not confidence with the elements needed for this round. I'm a kind of writer who loves restrictions because if the mechanics is too free, I might end up writing a novel. Surprise! There's only three vague elements/requirements for this round.
Basically, I lost all my fighting spirit and that I'm just doing my part for my teammates not to get affected. Low score is better than zero, right?
Anyway, since I'm too lazy to think for a new plot and I know no one would even care to leave their comments on it, I decided to share a portion of the darkest secret that I have. It might seemed too detailed because I have written that experience on my journal to torture myself when I'm falling in love. After this, you will also think that I don't deserve to be loved and my whole personality is disgusting.

Requirement: Bed Scene
After knowing that there will be this scene, my whole team kind of celebrated because we were waiting for this since the first round. Well, it's not because we like it so much, it's just that having a bed scene in a story is a big challenge for a writer who never tried to write one. I'm not happy to write this scene because it's the most unnerving memory in my life. But considering this has to do with bed, I think it is considered as bed scene.

We went to my family's private resort to seduce him. But what I've told my parents is that he's accompanying me in the resort to take photos for a photography contest. Our relatives in the province is 30 minutes away from the resort so, I knew my plan would work.
I didn't restrict myself with the clothes I wear – shorts and sleeveless. Sometimes, I'm roaming around the house with bathrobe on. I make sure that he'll see me when I'm very seductive, and that is after taking a bath.
I was very impressed with his self-control. Even if I caught him taking glances on me, he didn't do anything. I can't make a move either because he might suddenly put his guard up which will ruin my plans.
Then one night, I thought of drinking vodka. It's been awhile since the last time I drink and I knew most men drinks to boost their confidence. I bought one, but he was very persistent to not drink. I put the vodka in the food I've cooked. I don't know how sensitive he was, though. If he don't like it then he's free to get hungry for one whole day.
After a few bites, he instantly knew I put something in the food and he didn't bother asking me. He just smiled and shook his head. The next thing I remember, we we're laughing while watching something on the internet. He always have his pocket wifi with him which made our days in the resort less boring.
