The 3rd story after Bloody Valentine. This is part of the Croix Bleues Adventure Series, which, for the time being, is a TRILOGY. [I do not plan to add another story to this series. For those who would like to see the second story, which is what I consider to be my college "magnum opus", know that it cannot be published on Wattpad for the time being because of the intricate illustrations and picture clips it has.]

GOOD DAYS CAN BE FORETOLD BY THE MORNING TEA Reminiscence of the 5-Day Regional Teacher Induction Program (TIP) held at Baliuag University, Baliuag, Bulacan Note: This written work (in its initial state) was originally conceived for Madam Naomi T. Arzadon, CEO, former Assistant Schools Division Superintendent of Division of City Schools, Olongapo City. The short reminiscence however expanded to a full-length autobiographical work which span 5 major parts. For those who have read the original, this wattpad version has the Chapter numbers subdivided further, (compared to the published version which has 5 contigious chapters), to facitate better reading experience, for the original did indeed contain "long" chapters. Also note that the footnotes are also removed here, for it will be tedious to add all of them as endnotes, and the latter does not even lend itself well to Wattpad anyway. ©2016 Christopher S.

Ito ang aklat-elektroniko na naglalaman ng aking mga bungang isip, mula noon (panahon na katatapos ng kolehiyo) hanggang ngayon. Ang layunin ng aklat na ito ay unti unting ipunin, ilagay, at kung maaari ay isaayos ang aking maiikling katha, Tagalog man o English, na hindi talaga pwedeng mag-exist nang mag-isa o makabuo ng isang aklat. Siguro may mga magsa-suggest na, "bakit hindi ka na lang gumawa ng blog?" Hindi kasi ako laging babad sa computer at hindi ako komportable sa set-up ng blogging, kaya sa ganitong paraan ko na lamang ipinahayag ang aking mga katha at bungang isip. Sa totoo nga nito, bago lang ako sa mundo ng wattpad, kaya ngayon lang din ako mag-eexplore sa pamamaraang ito ng pagpapahayag ng mga bungang isip. Marahil, iisipin ng iba na self-centered ang pagkakabuo nito. Hindi ko naman masisisi ang iba kung magkaroon man ng ganoong judgment. Hindi naman kasi pang public consumption ang aklat na ito, pero pwede namang basahin ng mga gustong magbasa. Sa mga tatangkilik ng aking mga katha dito, MARAMING MARAMING SALAMAT PO SA INYO! © Christopher S.

A mystery/ ghost story I consider as my first attempt, this was followed by two more stories featuring almost the same set of characters. This tale was written 10 years ago, when I was in college. It just happened that I finally knew the existence (no kidding!) of wattpad and said to myself "hey, why not?" So here they are now. These are for my friends, colleagues, and those who have been my classmates in Columban College, Olongapo City, Philippines. Enjoy! "Bloody Valentine is the first story that spawned the Croix Bleue Adventure Series. It began when the author's friend, Ms. Melissa Jean Guerrero-Corum, challenged him to write a story for the Valentines' Day of 2004. The author complied, but complained that 'he's not capable of writing modern romance stories', and besides, the fact remained that he never read thin romance novels. But he still tried to write something, and his efforts resulted to the following work. The story instantly became popular among Education students and close friends, reprinted intermittently upon request of interested readers. Through the years, the original story suffered little alterations, except perhaps, changes in punctuations and basic phraseology. This however, marks the 3rd revision, which included some changes in grammar and phraseology. [The Author, 2015]"

"A chivalry/ romance story set on fictional medieval England/Europe". This tale is my first (somewhat) romantic short novel, which was conceived (very long ago) with the purest of intentions and good will. Disclaimer: None of the characters in the story existed in real life. Any resemblance to real personalities are entirely coincidental. - Christopher S. Alonzo
