EROS
The world is but a blurry image.
I opened my eyes and saw the ceiling in my room. Am I dreaming? Was that a dream? I closed my eyes again; I tried to recall what had happened.
"I think he's awake," Perth said in a whisper tone. Why was he here?
I opened my eyes widely and saw Perth, Ara, and Port looking at me.
"Why are you here?" I said, my throat was dry.
"Are you okay, Eros? Do you feel any pain in your body?" Ara asked. Her voice was trembling, worried sick.

EROS We arrived at the front gate of my property. There, I saw the car owned by Perth parked outside. I opened the window on Port's side, then Perth showed up. "I heard my bestie got a new phone," Perth said teasingly. Port giggled and showed his new phone. "I don't know how to use it," he said in a small voice. "What?" I exclaimed. "You asked me to buy that expensive unit, yet, you don't know how to use it?" "Let him be!" Perth inserted. "Don't worry, bestie. Ara will teach you how to use it. She owned an X flip too,"

EROS Standing in the middle of the hall, people around me passed by like I didn't exist. I tried to call their attention, but no one responded. A nurse approached, raising her hands to get my attention. At last, someone finally recognized my presence—or I just thought so. I waved at her in response, the nurse smiled at me and moved forward. Until she passed through me. I looked back and saw her joining another nurse. Was I dead? Why couldn't people see me? Why was I invincible to them? I strolled further in the hospital, trying to catch attention—hoping to find a person with a third eye. If I was indeed dead, I have to tell Perth or my

EROS "What are you, Port?" "Wh-what do you mean?" he stammered. I tightened my grip on his hands. "How did you save me from the landslide when it's too deep? How did you save me from the fire when the passages are already burning?" Port escaped from my gaze, then tried to pull back his arms. "You're hurting me, Eros," he cried. It snapped on me. I immediately released Port's hands from my grip. He sat on the bench, looking away. "Sorry," I said. The whole room was quiet except for my heartbeat and heavy brea

EROS We heard a soft knock, then a creaking sound. Ara’s voice resonated in the room as she entered. She was carrying a wooden crate full of painting tools. After her, Port followed with bags of whatnot and had the canvases under his left arms. “We’re back!” Ara placed the crate near the footboard then joined his lover. Port smiled at me, looking awkward, walking with a weight on his side. “How are you?” he asked. “Alive and cannot kick,” I said. He angled the canvas on the wall, then placed the bags beside it. “I brought you colors,” he said.

EROS I rose from the bed and noticed I was inside the hospital room. Port was sleeping on the bench on my left, and everything seemed normal; I touched my face, and it was warm. I checked my arms and legs—they were all the same. What was happening? I vividly remember freezing mountains surrounding me, and Port said, we're in Antarctica. It would be impossible to reach that continent from the room in a snap of a finger, but I knew it was real. Or was I dreaming? Perth entered the room with a beaming face. "What happened to you? You looked aghas
Befallen: A Herald's Tale (BL) 25 - Scarred Moon
EROS I was inside my room, lying on the bed, looking at the ceiling. It was a painted ceiling that resembled the night sky. There’s the gray scarred moon on the side, dead stars spangled around its entirety and a falling white comet at the center. It was one of my favorite works. I always looked at it before going to sleep, and when I woke up, it would be the first thing I would see. A knock was heard, and I rose as it opened. Port entered the room, hugging a pillow across his chest. He was wearing a pair of pajamas—it could be a gift from his besties. His eyes were glancing around the room, then finally met mine. Port was biting his lower lip as he moved toward the bed.

EROS"So, it's confirmed you are that kid," Perth said as we rode inside the elevator. He then pressed G-key."Yes, it was me," I murmured."What's odd was how accurate your dream was,"I didn't respond. It was all over my head since I woke up. It was odd to have a vivid dream, much more a dream about the past. No, I couldn't call it a dream. I wasn't dreaming. I was there. I was watching it happening, all before my eyes.It was mystical, but that's it. I couldn't do anything about it but dig deeper. It was a blessing I could see what had happened, that I could understand myself more.

EROS"I don't think Val was lying when he said he knew Port," Perth said, driving our way back to my unit."Yeah. I agree. How did he know Port's name? They must've met before,""But, a month had passed; how could he remember everything vividly?""He said that Port was wearing a weird outfit that day. Maybe the outfit was remarkable enough that it was worth remembering?"Perth nodded. My whole history was chaotic, and Port's past was more confusing. It was understandable to be in shambles to dig events twenty years ago, but Port's was a month-old tracking. In his case, it was always a dead end.
