“Is it fun watching me how to kill your friend last night?”
ONE NIGHT KILL
Alas Diez Y media na at kagagaling ko lang ng school dahil sa night class. While on my way, I frowned kasi may kakaiba akong nakita sa apartment ko kasama ang kaibigan ko.
Nakabukas iyong pinto. I thought, it was just normal that night because she was always inviting her other friends to our apartment.
Kahit pa mga boyfriends—yes, boyfriends niya, she's a player but mabait namnn siya. However, I went inside but heard some noises with muffles and moans.
Napatingin ako sa kwarto ng kaibigan ko. Hindi ko naman sinasadyang sumilip but I saw a sillhoutte of a man on top of her. Akala ko, may ginagawa silang kababalaghan, but morning came, police officers arrived and arrested me.
Gulong-gulo ako, but not until a young police officer wearing a cap walk towards me and put the handcuffs on my wrist and say;
“Is it fun watching me last night while I was killing your friend?” And all of the sudden, everything sink into my mind.

Beneath a broken mask lies the truth behind the façade, and while masks can conceal pain, they cannot mend wounds. In the end, no mask was worth the torture. However, to Midnight Velasquez, who was forced to wear a mask since he was young, the mask hiding his true face was a façade he was ready to keep for a lifetime.
However, what occurs when the mask begins to break, revealing the dreadful things concealed beneath it? Would he have the courage to confront his true self reflected in the mirror, or would the remnants of his broken mask consume him and drag him into the depths of despair?
With a broken mask, a battered body and a weary soul, Midnight couldn't help pondering... is this life worth living for?
