"paano mo nalaman?", manghang tanong niya
"wala akong hindi nalalaman, i want the half of it, 2.5 million" deretsong sabi ko
"what?, no way. Bakit ko naman ibibigay sayo yun?" pagtutol niya
"ako ang project mo diba? Kapalit ng 5 million? Just give me the half. Wala na tayong dapat pag-usapan pa"
"damn, paano mo nalaman yan? Jayvee sabotaged me, right?"
"sino ba kasi ang nagsabi na magpustahan kayo sa CR ng EGC". epic fail din ang isang to eh.
"anong mabebenefit niya kapag hindi natupad ang pustahan?" dagdag ko pa
"i'll give him 10 million" walang pag aalinlangang sagot niya
"what?!, sakanya nalang pala ako makikibusiness transact, mas malaki ang makukuha ko sakanya" pagbibiro ko
"it's just my scapegoat, you know" seryosong turan niya, napalingon ako sa kanya at agad nagtama ang paningin namin.
"scapegoat to what?" kunot noong tanong ko
"para hindi ako mapahiya kung sakaling hindi mo ako mapansin" napatawa nalang ako sa sagot niya. Hahahha boys and their ego.
Nagkwentuhan kami ng nagkwentuhan ng kung ano-ano at hindi na namin namalayan ang oras.
"i better get going Val" sabi niya sabay lakad pabalik sa sala
"uhm, pwede ka naman matulog sa guest room, kung okay lang sayo" offer ko
"thanks pero madami pa akong gagawin bukas sa office, mahirap malate" pagpupumilit niya. Kaya tumango nalang ako at inihatid siya sa may pinto.
"ahm, thank you and goodnight", pamamaalam ko. Ngumiti at tumango siya. Pagtalikod niya ay kasabay ng pagsara ko ng pinto.
Sumandal pa ako sa pinto ng ilang minuto bago ako pumanhik sa kwarto kung saan mahimbing na natutulog ang bestfriend ko. Buti nalang at nahanap ko si Marco, my one and only trusted friend.
Nagshower na muna ako tsaka nahiga narin. Maaga pa kami bukas. Pupunta ako sa site para icheck ang pinatatayong building.

******************************
Maaga akong pumasok sa eskwelahan dahil kuhanan na ng grades, graduating na ako with flying colors, kung mapagbibigyan ay gagraduate ako bilang Suma Cum Laude in Business management major in Marketing.
"ahm, Vee, pinatatawag ka ni Sir Marquez sa office niya", sabi ng kaklase kong nakasalubong ko sa gate.
"sige, salamat!"
Dumeretso na ako sa office ni sir Marquez, kumatok muna ako bago pumasok, pagkapasok ko ay nakita ko siyang nakatingin agad sa akin habang nakaupo sa swivel chair niya.
"good morning sir" bati ko.
"goodmorning Vee, maupo ka" bati niya pabalik.
"pinatatawag niyo daw po ako sir?", curious kong tanong
"oo, about your grade in my subject, bumagsak ka sa exam", deretso niyang turan na nakapagpalaglag ng panga ko. Para akong pinagsakluban ng langit at lupa. This is not happening, not now!. Nasagutan ko naman ng maayos yun ah. Wrong numbering ba?. Idinouble check ko naman ahh.
"sir, baka naman po nagkakamali kayo, maayos naman po ang exam ko, idinouble check ko naman po yun", garalgal ang boses ko kasi paiyak na ako.
"maaayos naman yan eh", tumayo siya at hinaplos ang likod ko, dahilan kung bakit nagsitayuan ang mga balahibo ko sa katawan, para akong binuhusan ng isang drum ng yelo.
"wag!! Sir, wag po. Maawa kayo, wag po!!!!"
******************
Marco's POV
"wag!! Sir, wag po. Maawa kayo, wag po!!!!", sigaw ni Val kaya napabalikwas ako sa higaan. Inaatake na naman siya ng masamang panaginip.
"Val, gumising ka!", tinapik tapik ko ang balikat niya. Nang dumilat siya ay agad niya akong niyakap. My poor bestfriend. The past keeps on hunting her. That dark past.
"Marco, hinahanap niya ako", umiiyak at balisang sabi ni Val.
"tahan na, nandito lang ako. Nasa kulungan na siya. Hindi ka na niya mahahanap pa", pag aalu ko sakanya habang nakayakap padin sa akin. Nakaupo kami pareho sa higaan.
"Marco, hahanapin niya ako. Hahanapin niya ako", pagpipilit padin ni Val.
Husssh. Hinahagod ko na ang likod niya. Ipinahiga ko na siya at kinumutan, nakatulugan na niya ang pag-iyak. Naaawa ako sakanya. Recently lang, inaatake na naman siya ng bangungot niya. Dumaan na siya sa mga therapy, naging maayos naman, pero ngayon, bumabalik na naman. It's not my story to tell. Kaya wag kayo sa akin magtanong kung anong nangyari.

Transposed
Apparently, even heaven had the odd clerical error. Which was not something Nathaniel Miller would have expected, and yet, that seemed to be exactly what had happened to him. The collector of souls seemed to have been given the wrong address, and instead of taking one Nathaniel Miller of the earth apparently right next door, he took Nate. As recompense for this small bit of error Nate was placed in the body of the Nathaniel Miller that had supposed to have been taken in the first place, and seeing as he now had an opportunity to try to live his life a different way he planned on taking advantage of this chance. No one, however, had specified how different this world would be from his, sure they had said the tech would be a little older, and there were other small anomalies. But no one had seen fit to let him know that older meant medieval, and those small anomalies mentioned? They probably referred to all the fantasy elements and magic that seemed to be part of this world. Still, he was determined to do better this time around, after all, chances like this were next to unheard of...

Henry Miller always dreamt of being teleported to a fantasy world but he never expected that a fantasy world would be brought to him. On that day, the earth cracked open letting loose monsters and magical beasts onto the surface. A stroke of misfortune causes Henry to be incapable of leveling, and in turn, he is forced to become stronger through the power of exercise mixed with a fiery resolve and unparalleled regenerative powers. This isn't a story of candy and roses, but one of pain, struggling, and a strong reliance on community to work together in order to survive. Out of the ruins of shattered earth, many will rise to the top and many will fall at the feet of others, but there are very few truly strong enough to protect others, and of those few even less will willingly choose to do so. Therefore it is Henry's duty to carry that torch and be someone who can bear that responsibility. Through light and darkness, Henry will remain as the pin that holds together the World Shatter.
