PUBLISHED UNDER LIB Note: If you're not into flawed characters who make wrong decisions, don't read this. Save yourself from stress. Started: 10/07/2020 Ended: 11/18/2020 Elora Chin Valencia grew up in a toxic Christian family where she was viewed as the black sheep. Araw-araw ay ipinaparamdam sa kanya ng mundo na wala siyang lugar sa sarili niyang tahanan. She was a consistent dean's lister and an obedient daughter, which left her wondering what she had done so wrong to be disregarded as a speck of dust in the wind. They made her feel like she was just dirt, filling up the empty space. The one who would never have her own safe place. Feeling all of this contributed to her endless suicidal ideations. Baka nga tama sila. Baka nga wala siyang halaga at kailanman ay hindi na sasaya. She almost believed that. She almost held onto that notion. Not until she met the man in his BS Civil Engineering uniform and gorgeous grin, Troy Jefferson Dela Paz. He kissed her forehead, and her loud thoughts were silenced. Her demons calmed down. Her foes were defeated. For the first time in her life, she had proven her family wrong---a happy Elora Chin was possible. She was loved and well-taken care of. Troy embraced her sharp parts, not minding the wounds he might get. But fate had a lot of cruel things in store for her. Because when she thought she had reached the peak of happiness, she found myself drowning alone in the ocean she now called home, alone in her shame, alone with the waves she couldn't tame.

"The world is ending in 7 days and I'm going to die beside the most dysfunctional idiot that has ever graced the face of this Earth." A smile tugs the corners of Taehyung's lips and she can see her own reflection in his eyes, glittering with the bright lights reflected from the street. It's funny how we only notice how beautiful the smallest details can be when we know it'll all fade away to dust soon. Taehyung's voice resonates in her ears, a deep humming interlacing it as he says, "We're all going to die." He says it like he's already resigned to his fate, to the fate of the world. It sounds like a death sentence until he raises both hands above his head and does a single loud clap. "But we're going down with a bang." Or: That one cliché au where world is ending; a lonely girl and a drunkard boy decide to clear up their mistakes and make their remaining days worthwhile. WRITTEN FOR AND DEDICATED TO @hoperadio, my best friend and soulmate. i'm happy she could read this before she passed. "I honestly do not even know what to say.
