(Previously known as RIOT) For Kimmy, Lennard Craig was just someone you would never notice lalo kung kasama nito ang super attractive at hari ng ka-sexy-hunk na kapatid nitong si Brad. He was just a jealous man who was trying to be his brother-- a trying hard, copy-cat. For Lennard, Kimmy Margarette was just someone unnoticeable when she's with her beautiful sister Kelly, but noticeable when she starts opening her mouth. Kimmy was the loudest, creepiest and most annoying teenager anyone would ever have a chance of meeting. Para silang aso't pusa sa tuwing magkikita at magkakatabi, at pareho nilang hindi gusto ang isa't isa. Kung bakit ganoon nalang ka-init ang dugo nila para sa bawat isa ay walang nakakaalam. Maraming taon pa ang lumipas, Lennard would come and go, Kimmy would change boyfriends from then and now, at wala pa ring pagbabago sa turingan nila. Hanggang sa isang gabi, nang magtama ang kanilang mga mata, wala silang ibang inisip pareho kung hindi ang makita ang isa't isa sa ibabaw ng kama, naked, making love--NO--having sex to their hearts' content. Anong kababalaghan ang nangyayari sa kanilang dalawa? ** Original version was written in 2019 Revamped version will be released this year (2023) ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

Alas syete ng umaga, sa may Avenida, Maynila... Pakapal nang pakapal ang di-pangkaraniwang hamog na bumalot sa labas ng 7-eleven. Hamog na hindi namin alam kung paanong lumukob sa labas ng tindahan. Walo kaming naiwan. Walo kaming nagsisimula nang mangatog sa takot. Nakatayo at humahagilap ng kahit anong masisilayan sa labas. Bakas sa anyo ng lahat ang pagkabigla, ang pagtatanong kung ano ba talaga ang nangyayari. Ni isa sa amin ay di makapagbitiw ng salita dahil parepareho kaming walang ideya. At sa isang iglap, wala na kaming narinig na anuman mula sa labas. Nawala ang boses ng mga nagsisigawang tao, ang mga busina ng jeep. Isang nakabibinging katahimikan. Tanging ang mabilis na tibok ng puso ko na lamang ang aking naririnig. (Ang "Saan Kami Pupunta" ay kwento tungkol sa walong taong hindi magkakakilala na naiwan sa loob ng 7-eleven habang ang mundo sa labas ng tindahan ay nilamon ng di maipaliwanag na hamog. Sundan kung paano sila mabubuhay, tatakas, at tutuklasin kung anong misteryo ang nangyari sa mundo) Copyright © 2014 by ruerukun All rights reserved.
