Sa isip-isip niya, wala na siyang dapat patunayan sa mundo dahil mundo na mismo ang nagpatunay sa kanya-na ang mundo ay hindi laging maganda sa mata ng iba. Lalo na sa kanya. Sa sobrang galit niya sa mundo pati mundo sinaraan niya sa sarili niya. Pero hindi ang mundo ang makakapigil sa gusto niyang gawin sa mundo niya. 

Manifestation? Astrology? Universe? 

Non-existent ang mga iyon sa mundo niya. 

Iyan si Rai. 

Lumaki sa iba't-ibang komunidad simula pagkabata. Pero wala siyang pinagsisisihan kung biktima man sila ng Nanay niya ng internal migration. Buhay silang mag-ina? May bahay na matutuluyan? Makapag-aral? Hindi 'yan ang isasagot ni Rai kung tatanungin siya kung bakit wala siyang pinagsisisihan sa palipat-lipat nila ng tahanan. Ayan na kasi ang naging format ng mga sagutan ng mga tao sa Quora sa tanong na "How do poor Filipinos live?"

Aware si Rai na mare-revoke ang card niya sa lupa kapag nag-umpisa na siyang lumaban. Pero ano pa't pinag-aaralan nila si Dr. Jose Rizal sa kolehiyo para lamang maging duwag at mag-ambag sa pyramid ng social cancer. Sabi pa nga ni Mahatma Gandhi, be the change, if you want to see the world. 

At dahil gusto pang makita ni Rai ang ipinagkait sa kanya ng mundo-o kung hindi man siya mismo, ng mga susunod na henerasyon ng kabataan na lang, isusugal niya ang card mapatunayan lang na ang Kabataan ang Pag-asa ng Bayan.    

"They are learning theory? I'm learning reality,"-Rai Kontemplasyon, 2020

When Franco moved to Manila for college, he told himself that he'll experience everything there is to experience. And he did. His first year could be considered as... scandalous, to say the least. So when his sophomore year came, he promised himself that he'll do better para na rin sa future niya. He intended to join this prestigious organization that would surely help his career in the future. When Franco joined AIESEC, he knew his life would change... little did he know, magbabago talaga ang buhay niya nang makilala niya si Joaquin Lorenzo Santillan-the perfect student who's beloved by everyone. Franco was in awe. Every where Joaquin goes, his presence commanded respect. His presence was magnetic, his smile effortless, his charm undeniable. And he was nice-so nice that Franco unknowingly followed him around, like he was orbiting around Joaquin's magnetic presence, eager for him to be noticed. Akala ni Franco ay okay ang lahat. Naka-pasok na siya sa org. Mukhang magiging kaibigan niya na si Joaquin. But one night, few beers after, his world seemingly collapsed when Joaquin stared him in the eye and said, "In case there's any confusion, let me make it clear-I'm not gay." Franco's world tilted on its axis, crumbling in an instant. Now, his mission was simple: survival. Avoid Joaquin at all costs. Erase the memory of that moment, of those eyes, of the touch that seemed to linger impossibly on his skin. Little did he know, some marks aren't so easily erased.
