But in that deep sleep all that vanished, a boyish expression coming to the fore. The air of innocence was heightened by the silky hair, leaving the weather-beaten skin, the lines showing life in and around his forehead, eyes dug, forgotten.Again he found himself lost in the sight he had longed for, longing to wake the other but unable to interrupt his sleep. A look out of the window showed him that the sun had almost set, its mild light bathed the room in warm colors, set golden accents in Jiyo Kael's hair, and deepened the shadows that surrounded him.Suddenly he stiffened, winced as if he'd heard something, and opened his eyes. Their eyes met. Ben smiled softly and wanted to approach him, but the tense concentration that had suddenly taken possession of Jiyo's entire body prevented him from doing so.Jiyo jumped up with a jerk. "They're coming," he murmured, blinking twice before being able to get his bearings."Who's coming?" Ben smiled, to which Jiyo only gave him a confused loo
A month later, three weeks into the course, Marco Junior poured his mind into his studies. He had never been so fascinated by a course in his entire life. He is taking a course called Introduction to criminal justice and he loves it. He didn't have much to say about his trigonometry course. It was so easy and so was every course he took. He complained to Hershey about their crazy instructor for their English Lit course. They were told to write a 200-page paper on the most memorable moment in their life and even if he thought and thought, he couldn't think of anything that could fill two hundred pages. But then, he thought about the time he was on earth. He has been through so much since he was born. Things he never thought he would go through. So, what he finally decided on was a biography. Twenty years is long enough to forge into 200 pages. He will write about one of what is most important to him, his family. On Tuesday afternoon, he had been in the dorm room for about thirty minu
Hershey sipped, head bowed. She looked back at him. "Yes of course." She stated, feeling guiltyShe knew Marco would come out when he found out she was really enjoying talking to another guy in the neighborhood, where she enjoyed their time together. This made her laugh. Why should she feel inferior? He is what she wants. "I'm glad to see someone who knows how to laugh."Hershey sighed, "I'm sorry. I was just wondering how my boyfriend would react if he caught me talking to you."Rey smiled, raising his hands, "He need not to worry, I don't go around stealing other men women. I prefer to find my own."Hershey nodded, "Alright. He'll respect you more than that one."Rey nodded, "Alright, thank you, well, I should go if you know what I mean."Hershey sighed, "Yeah, alright, it was nice talking to you.Rey nodded, stepping back from their conversation, "Yes, you too."With that, he distanced himself from her. He started walking towards Danny's car. Hershey watched him, curious.Marco too
At The Ladies' DormitoryJade opened the door to her dorm room and stopped walking. There was a girl taking her stuff out of the extra bed. Jade watched the girl silently while taking out a cd player and headphones. A white set of sheets was brought out, along with a green comforter. Jade watched as the girl removed the remaining items from her bag and placed them on the shelf as well. Jade stared at the stuffed animals she forged on the shelf. Is it normal to bring stuffed animals to college? Her gaze went to the girl's face, she noticed the hair cut in a short style, deep-set brown eyes, and cherry red lips. Her face looks clean. Jade stared, not sure if the girl could be considered beautiful or what. Her face is diamond-shaped with wispy bangs in the front.The girl's eyes widened to meet her. She gave Jade a smile. Jade supposed a smile can do wonders for such a plain face. "I'm Emily, you call me Emily or just Emily.""Emily?" Jade quarried, her gaze glinting at the girl's long dr
Hershey put a hand on her hip, "I thought you wouldn't mind if he talked to me?"Marco Junior sighed, frustrated, "I do when you talk about my personal information. What else did you tell him?""That's just talk Marco." said Hershey. Already debating not getting her chosen clothing."Conversation, it doesn't matter. He doesn't need to know about me or our relationship, it's between the two of us.""I didn't think you'd be upset about it, I'm sorry."Marco Junior gave a fake laugh, "Sure you didn't." With that, he hung up.Hershey took off the nighty, almost ripping the precious silk. What is his problem? He didn't tell Rey anything that would alarm her or anything. The only thing she told him was how long they had known each other and that as far as Marco was concerned, she was his only family. Nothing bad was said about him or his mother or his father. He also told her about his parent's relationship with each other and how he wanted it for them. Is there anything harmful in there? Sig
Marco Fernando Senior and Ayah IsabelAfter arriving from Shanghai, China, Marco Senior packed up some important things going to the island of his dream - a vacation together with his wife only for a getaway tour.Arriving at the tent, none of them wasted any time. They laughed as they almost fell on top of each other in their haste to slip inside when none of them could free themselves from their clothes fast enough.The stillness of the evening was not broken by any creature.Dusk had already fallen over the almost deserted campground. Only insects and the occasional bird broke the silence. And inside the tent, Marco Fernando Senior kissed the scar on his wife's side. He followed the just fully healed trail with his tongue, licking the salty taste of the skin, tickling the young scar tissue, until Marco Senior bucked until he grabbed her, and threw her onto her back, in the middle of the two sleeping bags, which lay untidily on top of each other to create an uneven surface. Marco no
"Thank you, my dear brothers and sister. We are here again, to compose ourselves and brave ourselves with what we are going to do, despite our Billionaire father being with us. Look, our mother and father were enjoying their honeymoon and loving each other. So, we can support them instead?" Anne Rose opens her heart in front of her loved ones.It was the moment for everyone who was supposed to be supportive of their parents. It was the time for them to give more time to their parents' endeavors. For the longest time that their Billionaire father was with them now, together with their mother - Ayah Isabel.Kent Michael looked intently at Anne Rose which could be noted as a negative gesture. But, instead, keep his silence at bay. Even though they were not in unison with each other, Kent knew the situation at hand."Danny Robert and John Philip, you two, what were you doing with our half-brother, Marco Fernando Junior? Is it not known to him about the two of you? Could you please stop pl
At Hershey's DormitoryJade rang the bell again, and sure enough, Hershey was home. She was always at home, or more so than Marco Junior. Jade sighed, irritated. Why didn't she come home on this important occasion?An idea came to her mind. Maybe, just maybe she didn't mean to tell Hershey about Marco Junior's other girlfriend, Emily Reyes. Perhaps she would let them live in peace."Jade, I'm glad you're here."She heard a high-pitched tone. Her spirits immediately dropped. Maybe she should say it. When Jade turned, Hershey was staring at the stairs she had just climbed. Marco Junior is not far behind. As usual, her cheeks were hot pink."Hi, Jade my best friend." Jade waved, saddened by the fact that she had to be here for this."Look what I got." Hershey stated, holding Jade's hand, her giggles giddy.Jade stared at a beautiful circular band with diamonds on silver metal. "Nice." She spoke, her tone soft, her heart broken.She looked at Marco Junior, who seemed to have sparked in hi
