"Bird and I really were a close binary system. He's a part of me. And Bird flew away."
- Jewel, 'Bird' by Crystal Chan
"Isn't it funny? I'm named the Cuckoo, but I'm caged inside."
She fiddled with his keyboard. The letter 'J' popped up, forming an orderly line of his name, but he remained silent. "I'm his little decoration in his great big machine."
***********
Cuckoo was a fantasy. Out of reach, free from grasp and an alluring mystery.
However, in truth, rather than a fantasy, she endured more authenticity; rather than free, she was imprisoned and restrained; rather than a mystery, she was hidden from prying eyes.
She couldn't continue to live like that.
And so she decided she wouldn't.

A Devil whom no one can tame except her smile. An Angel whose innocence was kept safe by her papa and Bade papa, the king of Mafia. She was safe, or at least she thought, not knowing the danger around her. What will happen when he comes to know about the danger around her? Will he be able to save her from that danger?

Without You
"R-Rare bird?" Dew of bittersweet, desperate moistness immersed his fragile eyelids as tears verged to spring up like toy-out-of-the-box into his eyes, tinting ruddily its lily-white eyeballs. "P-Please don't leave me!" His heart ached over her absence by being relentlessly cracked on thousands of pieces with the hammer of justice, scattered on the vacuum floor as he felt his knees weak, kneeling on the ground. In the meanwhile, a crystal, salty tear dripped as a bleeding scar from his eye, sniffling quietly to himself. "Without you, I'm nothing even if I'm the Pope in Rome or the Cardinal in New York!" Tearful, balefully rueful mutter jingled into his ears, shutting his eyes without blinking for a single second, allowing the heavy rain of tears to gush down, staining his face with dampness. Jude and Timothy are having a coq-au-vin dinner, where it's becoming a battlefield not only of disagreements and slurps, but also of compliments and kind words which the nun has never heard about self especially coming from a man.
