"'Wag muna," mahina niyang pakiusap habang nakatulala sa harapan. Nakatitig lamang siya sa kawalan. "'Wag muna, please." Umiling-iling siya habang nakikiusap. 

Ngunit ang hindi niya alam, may nakaupo sa harapan niya na nakikinig sa mga pakiusap niya.

                                  ⁂

If he could kill someone's second chance at life  just to touch a human, 
he could die for his purpose too.

                                 ⁂

A kartigo, soul's guide to Bathala, once knew Glint, who is a troubled soul who wants to fall into nonexistence. But this kartigo changes her mind, which is against the rules, and persuades her to live again. This soul becomes the reason for the kartigo's wanting to touch a human, specifically Glint.

The kartigo's yearning was granted when Glint reincarnated as Sparkle. For him to be a human, he needs to commit a sin by killing someone's second chance at life. But the consequences await, by the time the kartigo finds and serves his only purpose as a human, he will fall into nonexistence. 

This is about dreams, fears, yearning,  the beauty of being a human, grieving, and how you can magically bring purpose to someone's life just by existing. The only wish Sparkle wants is for the kartigo to stay with her, but can Bathala grant this?

"N-noo! No!!" I yelled. Nakaluhod lang akong nakatingin sa bangin na pinaghulugan ng kotse. That scene. It's stock in my mind. It's my fault. It is all my fault. My mother is very furious about it. And she wants me to die. I also want it. Tinuon ko na lang ang lahat sa pagsayaw habang hawak ang baso kong may alak. Nagliwaliw ako to divert my attention. Uminom ako sa baso kaso naubos na kaya naman bumalik ako sa counter. Humingi pa ko at nanatili na lang doon. "Mm. I want to die.. hahaha" sabay inom Magsasalita ako tapos tatawa at iinom na sa baso ko. Hahaha nakakatuwa. Nababaliw na ba ko? Instinct, lumingon ako sa gilid ko at napansin ang isang gwapong lalaking nakatingin sakin. Oo, gwapo talaga as in. Nakaupo rin sya sa counter at umiinom rin. Broken din ba si Kuya kaya sya nandito? Ay. Wawa naman pala si kuyang gwapo. "Hoy! Anong tinitingin tingin mo dyan ah?" Pagmamasungit ko. Trip ko lang bakit ba?! "..naawa ka ba sakin?" Tanong ko pa. Baka nga naawa sakin. Tumayo ako at lumapit kanya. Kita ang pagkagulat sa mukha at nakatingin pa sya sa bandang tiyanan ko. Seksi ko ba? *lip bite* joke. Huminto ako sa tapat nya at "maganda ba ko?" Halatang nagagandahan sakin si kuyang gwapo e. "Ah e.. O-oo." wow! Hahaha tawa ko sa isip ko. Ang gwapo ni kuya tas ang ganda ko! Bagay kami. *clap hands* very nice naman. Umayos ng upo si kya paharap sya sa counter di katulad kanina na saakin ang atensyon nya. Kilig. Joke. "Totoo ba?" At hinawakan ko ang mukha nya paharap sakin. He stilled. Cute! Nilapit ko pa ang mukha ko sa kanya. Syet men ang gwapo nya talaga! And something inside me urged to kiss him. Kaya naman. I pulled myself closer until my lips met his. Then black out. I remember that handsome face afterthat incident. Until one day, nalaman kong....he's a gay?! Omay gad! Is it possible for a gay to fall in love? Especially me? - - ----------------------------------- Way to go, mates!
