"Are Magi, Warren, Yuwi and Harris and I on the same side?" Israel's assurance."GG, tol.""Tamo, you are very old, huh?!""Calm down, Harris and Warren." Eli laughed and said."We are both unfamiliar with the game. It's a fair fight because we're all gropers, okay?”"And I think, Delancy picked unbiased." I inserted into the conversation."You can say that because you are sure to win."Alec looked at Harris. "We will play not for the prize but to enjoy, okay? Calm down.”"Let's get started," Dylan announced."To find out which one of us will be first, you pick stones one by one." And what he points to is Harris and Alec."USA," said Harris and they got ready to pick stones.USA means best of three, child's play it seems.After that Alec won, and Harris' group was chosen to go first. We will t-timer them, then when it's our turn they will t-timer us.Standing at the front part is none other than Yuwi, he's the one passing the word on his teammates who now have headphones attached to t

"And I think, we all have the capacity to overthink sometimes, but some of us have a habit of doing that.Honestly, I used to be like that. It's because I'm surrounded with a bunch of problems way back, so the only thing I did at that time was to overthink.It's not really helpful sometimes, we overthink too much. But I do believe that a problematic person escapes from it by overthinking.”"I'm not telling you to keep doing that, huh?" She quipped, giving my hand a pinch."It is completely fine to overthink sometimes but please, don't make it your everyday hobby.Learn from my experience, Irene. There were some nights when I couldn't sleep well because of overthinking.I almost got depressed but thankfully, Dylan helped me to stop from overthinking.""And I do believe Israel will do the same."Her trust with Israel was too invaluable. The amount of trust he has here, unlike on my side.During the times I met Israel, I still doubted him. I still don't have one hundred percent trust in

I have left the house for good, at least I hope to reduce my anger.I'll admit it, I accept that I'm defeated this time. When is it not? But if I don't sign it, he definitely won't stop me.Papa himself told me to sign it... so I signed it for him."Whose car did you steal?"As soon as I went outside the gate, I saw Israel leaning on the side of the white car, waiting in formation for my exit."Eli lent it to me," he said before opening the door of the passenger's seat.I went inside while waiting for him to enter."I told him that you agreed to go on a date with me. He told me to use his car so that it would not be a hassle for us to get a massage on our first date."I was amazed not because Israel was using Eli's car to pick me up at home just so our first date won't fail.I'm amazed by how supportive Eli was for Israel. He's such a good epitome of a true friend that others failed to have.Aside from that, I think he's that supportive of Israel because, maybe, it's Israel's first ti

"I'm not forcing you to believe me---"He stopped the car which really surprised me. But my surprise doubled when he pulled my body closer to him, giving me a tight and warm hug.I'm not expecting him to do this, nor I'm not prepared for him to do this. I can't stop my heart from beating fast."I'm just happy," he broke away from hugging me, making sure to accompany it with a shy laugh.He was the first to get out of the car to open the door for me, and to my surprise, we are at a food court near the supermall in our city."What are we going to do here?""Are not you hungry?"I frowned. "You're saying what?"Instead of answering my question, he just pulled me to enter the food court to make sure we buy something to eat.Only street foods can be seen and there are also round tables here. There are a lot of people here now, but thankfully, there are still a few tables available.Both of our trays were filled with a variety of street foods like fish balls, fries, siomai, burgers, kikiam,

When I opened my eyes, I was shocked to find myself lying on a bed and… there was dextrose attached to me.That's when I realize that I'm in the hospital now. I looked around the room but saw a nurse who was busy taking my body temperature."Nurse, can I ask you something?""What's that?" Responding to it.“How did I get here? Who brought me here to the hospital? Am I the only one who rushed here? I don't have a man with me?”He walked away from me with sad eyes. "I think the police can answer your questions."When the Nurse finally left the room, two policemen entered at the same time. Both of them looking at me suspiciously which added to the nervousness I feel at this time."Miss Desiderio, right?""Where are you with me? Did you save him?”"Hija, our group found you lying on the road with scars on your body. We caught the car that crashed and exploded.If the person you're referring to is in that car, maybe don't expect him to live anymore." Said a police officer wearing a cap."W

Besides Magi, he is the person I want to be with for a long time. KJ is a case of destiny because the one above took him immediately.It hurts to think that the reason I was smiling and happy before, is also the reason why I am sad now."Why is it that no matter where I go, he's the one I remember?" I laughed and asked myself when I realized that I was here in the park, the place where I first met him.He was even wearing a mascot, but I only found out the next day that Israel was behind that hot costume.That day was one of the saddest days of my life. Because Papa will leave me in the hands of my stepmother again.During those times, I find a quiet place to cry and vent all my anger towards them. He happened to find me and tried to talk to me and cheer me up.Using his words, I became motivated.Now I'm looking for that mascot that seems to have been made for Israel. Because I remember he said that he could do that to make people like me happy.But now that I'm sad, who will make me

"He can't receive visitors first, hija. 'Because when he sees someone, he suddenly loses his temper and even hurts him.We also find it difficult to live with him so we time him to sleep to bring food and medicine.He is also injected with a sedative in case he fails his therapy.” A staff here at the rehab center explained to me.I asked her permission to visit one of their patients which is Papa, but she didn't want to allow me because Papa said it hurts when he sees other people.So now, I just looked outside his room, he was on his white bed playing with a small teddy bear.I approached the glass window to take a closer look at Papa, and unexpectedly, I see him smiling while playing the toy.At this moment, I can't help myself but to cry again. I feel sorry for his condition now, far from what I used to see him a few years ago. It's hard for me to stomach looking at him now because it's hard to see my Dad in such a situation.It seems he returned to his childhood but once he saw an

I chuckled with that thought. "Maybe you can't handle my being an overthinker, right? Well, if you're the one who can handle my overthinking, I'll marry you.""Do you want me to betray my friend?" I looked at him as my brows furrowed."Even though he is no longer here, I still have a huge respect for him. You're his woman and that, I believe, will never change just because he's no longer with us.”I laughed at him not because his line was funny. I really laughed because he took my joke seriously."And he will always be here," I place my right hand to my chest. “Just like him, I've never been in love like this before. Not even once, until he came.”My feelings for Israel are deeper and more genuine than I have with Harold before.“I believe you will overcome all this too. At this moment, I think it's time to use this opportunity to make yourself happy.Even though Israel broke his promise to you that he'll make it until the end, but I think it's your turn to do what you promised him.I
