Adrift Stories

She was never supposed to survive the sea. And that's where he found her. Nagkataon lang ba ang lahat? o talagang itinakda ng alon na dalhin siya papunta sa kanya?

Riley doesn't remember the last time someone asked if she was okay. Not really asked. Not in the way that meant they were going to stay for the answer. She is seventeen years old and she has already learned the most important lesson this town has to offer - that people leave. They leave with promises folded neatly in their pockets, with good intentions they fully mean at the time, with duffel bags and bus tickets and fifteen days that turn into three years without a single word. They leave, and the ones left behind learn to stop waiting by the window. They learn to stop setting an extra plate. They learn to breathe around the absence until the absence just becomes the air. Riley works the late shift. She carries drinks to tables without being asked twice. She doesn't flinch at loud voices anymore. She doesn't cry at things that used to make her cry. She has become very good at being invisible in a room full of people - and even better at being invisible to herself. This is not the life she imagined. But it is the life she has. And she has made her peace with it, quietly, the way you make peace with things you never had a choice about. She is not waiting for anyone anymore. She stopped doing that a long time ago. Until the night a familiar face walks through the door - and three brothers who left her behind must now face what their absence built. Because blood doesn't forget. And neither does Riley.

#2 on Adrift on 09/07/19 Lily is a week old when disaster strikes - The Great Flood - no, not the one with Noah's Ark. The one that stays, the one that never goes away. Her mother and her find themselves on a raft with nothing but a fishing rod, a blanket and a pillow. Sneak Peek: "No, Lily," Mother told me. "You hold a fishing rod like this.." Mother turned the fishing rod around, and wrapped my fingers around the handle. "Now you place the-" I plunked the hook into the water, and waited for a pull. "Good girl, now we just have to wait." Mother said. "If-"

Heroes come and go, stumbling here as their place of restoration. But something has arrived here. Something... evil. That day, beasts of Nirvana and Corruption rose from the ground and threatened cities to build walls. Only few survive today. But I have seen. I foresee the two who might be able to save Kyore, or lead it to destruction. Those people are...

For I had loved him for a million years and more, Kissed him on the cheek, And drowned in the red waters of his soul. Yet, all he could ever care, Was to look me right in the eyes, and open his fingers to the air leaving me adrift.
