"Babe,"
I smiled. Ang sarap sa pakiramdam na marinig mismo sa taong mahal mo ang mga katagang iyon.
2 months had passed ng sagutin ko siya at hindi ako magsisisi na ibinigay ko ang matamis kong oo sa kanya.
"Bakit, babe?" tanong ko sa kanya.
"Magpapaalam sana ako sa iyo na kung pwedeng sumama ako sa mga barkada ko sa kompyuteran..." sabi niya at iiling na sana ako ng magsalita siyang muli.
"...promise, babe, hindi ako tatagal." sabi niya at marahas akong napabuntung-hininga. Ano pa nga bang magagawa ko?
"Sige." lumapad ang ngiti niya at hinalikan ako sa pisngi.
Nandito kami sa bahay namin at kasalukuyang nasa sala habang nanonood ng movie sa kanyang laptop.
"Bye, babe, I love you." paalam niya sa akin.
"Bye, babe. Huwag kang papagabi ah?" naka-ngusong sabi ko sa kanya at lumapit naman siya sa akin at masuyo akong niyakap.
"Promise, babe, I promise this to Kelsey Dela Vega that I, Zander Valeran will come as early as I can." sabi niya at natatawa akong nagkalas sa yakapan namin.
"Then, I'll keep in mind and my heart that promise, Mr. Valeran." kunwaring kunot ang noong sabi ko at tumawa naman kaming pareho bago ko sinarado ang gate ng aming bahay.
Tatlong oras na ang nakakalipas pero hindi pa rin siya bumabalik at alas syete na ng gabi.
Kagat-kagat ko ang aking labi na pumasok sa aking kwarto para magpalit ng damit at nagsuot ako ng jacket dahil mahamog sa labas ng aming apartment.
Sinarado ko na ang aming gate at nagsimulang maglakad sa may kadiliman naming kalsada.
Pangatlong street na ako at dito sa street na ito ang madalas pag-kompyuteran niya kasama ang mga barkada niya.
Ilang hakbang na lang ay nasa computer shop na ako pero natigilan ako ng lumabas siya sa computer shop at mukhang aalis na ng makita niya ako.

Nakangiti pa siya bago siya tumawid pero nasa kalagitnaan na siya ng kalsada ng makita ko sa aking kaliwang bahagi ang paparating na truck na mukhang hindi alam na may tatawid.
Nanlalaki ang matang nilipat ko ang tingin kay Zander at nakangiti pa rin siya habang humahakbang.
"NOOOO!!!"
"Anak, gumising ka!"
Nagising ako at nakita ko sa aking gilid si mama na may nag-aalalang tingin sa akin.
"Ma, napanaginipan ko si Zande--" pinutol ni mama ang sasabihin ko.
"Anak, matagal ng patay si Zander, dalawang taon na." sabi niya at doon ako napakurap-kurap at bumuntong-hininga.
"Hayaan mo na lang ang panaginip mo na iyon..." tumango ako kay mama at ngumiti naman siya.
"...o siya, bumaba ka na at hinihintay ka na ni Sander sa baba."
Oo nga pala, si Sander ang boyfriend ko, ang kakambal ni Zander, ang una kong minahal.
Bumaba na ako sa aking kwarto at natigilan ako ng makita ko ang buong sala namin.
Lumabas si Sander mula sa kusina na naka-pormal ang suot. Nakangiti siya sa akin na lalong nagpapa-alala sa akin sa kanyang kapatid.
Ng makalapit siya sa akin ay bigla siyang lumuhod at nagtataka ko siyang tinignan.
"Kelsey Dela Vega, will you marry me? And will you forget my twin and just let me be the man of your life? I love you more than anything in this world." nakita kong may kinuha siya sa kanyang bulsa at nakita ko na lamang ang sarili kong gulat na gulat dahil sa isang pulang kahon na nilabas niya.
Tumulo ang luha ko, hindi dahil sa tuwa dahil nagpo-propose siya sa akin ngayon, pero dahil na-realize kong hindi talaga siya ang nagpapatibok ng puso ko, kundi ang kakambal niya, si Zander. Ayokong gamitin siyang panakip-butas sa pagkakawala ng kapatid niya. I want him to be happy to another girl, a girl who truly deserves him.

And I came up my mind.
"No, Sander. I'm sorry, I love you pero kahit matagal ng patay si Zander, siya pa rin talaga ang nagpapatibok ng puso ko, ang totoong mahal ko."
And I left him while he's crying his heart out.

7780, or: Children of a White Rider
As one war ends, another begins. The year Fastidious: 7780 marks deteriorating relations between the Siralians, devout sailors of the Ordos Canticula, and the Ardalians, matchless fire mages ruling neverending farmlands. In the shadows, Ardalian rebels successfully unlock an ancient magical gate. Their desire? A soldier, immutable, unstoppable, and enslaved. Eli Stuart and his fiancee Patricia Secord find themselves thrown into a strange world. Trapped in a land of hostile magic and alien politics, the two of them must use their newfound powers to make alliances, stop their enemies, and ultimately reunite. However, something goes wrong. In this chaos, as the world begins to unravel in foul ways, something else stirs. Something else found its way through. Author's Note: I will update this story as often as I can. I am quite busy and write this during breaks at work. This is one of those goon-squad stories with a million characters, so "dizzying" might be a good way to describe the energy. Much of what builds up to the first arc happens in the first ten chapters, which are quite long. For that reason, if you have difficulty getting through the story, I understand, though things don't really start happening until Chapter 8-10.

Ultima Deus - The Last God
After the Great War, humanity has managed to survive through the passage of the controversial NCRA act and the advent of "Project Deus", or "Project God" - The creation of a Virtual Realm, "Aeterna". Praised as the salvation of mankind and the fulfillment of its grandest ambitions by some, others revile it as a tool to enthrall and enslave the minds of humanity's most vulnerable individuals. Project Deus promises to grant divinity to the select few who rise to the highest ranks in Aeterna, effectively becoming Gods and Goddesses. Forced to enter Aeterna, one man swears vengeance by becoming the Ultima Deus, or Last God. The God to end all gods. This is his story. Please note the following: Mature content, mostly gore and gratuitous violence. No immediate ultime power-ups. This is a grindy, feisty slugfest starting off from the very bottom of the pyramid, and measured, progressive and very deliberate upgrades. UPDATE: Hiatus is over, regular chapters incoming!
