Bless the Broken Road (Part 1)
"Aish!" badtrip kong sabi. E paano ba naman, lumagpas kasi 'yung pagkakapinta ko doon sa may bandang gilid ng ginagawa ko.
"Kumain ka muna, Sheshe. Maya mo na lang 'yan ituloy." biglang sabi ni kuya Ely sa akin habang kumakain ng sandwich at naglalaro ng computer games.
"I told you, kuya, huwag mo akong tawaging Sheshe, ang baduy. Shallane 'yun, okay?" sabi ko kay kuya at inayos na lamang ang pinipinta ko. Kapag mainit talaga ang ulo ko 'e lagi akong nagkakamali sa ginagawa kong pagpipinta.
Tumayo na ako at bumaba na lamang para kumain ng meryenda since maaga pa naman para sa tanghalian.
"May food na kayo ng kuya mo para sa tanghalian niyo mamaya. May nakahanda na ring carbonara doon sa kusina kung magmemeryenda ka. I gotta go, baby. Babalik din naman ako mamaya with my friend. Bye, love you." sabi ni mom habang inaayos niya ang kanyang bag at ang kanyang coat.
"Yes mom. Thank you and please, take care. I love you, too." sabi ko at hinalikan ang pisngi ni mom.
"And by the way, pupunta pala dito 'yung anak ng friend ko. He's good kaya please, be good to him. Sabihan mo na lang ang kuya mo." huling sabi ni mom bago siya pumasok sa kanyang kotse at pinaharurot ito.
I sigh. Pumunta na lamang ako sa kusina at kumain ng meryenda. Ang boring ng araw na 'to.
Nabigla ako sa pagtunog ng doorbell ng bahay namin kaya't agad akong napatayo. Napahawak ako sa aking dibdib at huminga ng malalim. Hays, mamamatay ako sa kaba dito 'e.
Uminom muna ako ng tubig sa aming pitchel at dumiretso na sa aming pintuan. Binuksan ko naman ito at nakita roon ang isang lal-- este isang gwapong lalaki.

Napatitig ako sa mga mata niya. Why is it so simple yet so attractive?
"Sino 'yan, bunso?" rinig kong tanong ni kuya sa likod ko. Agad akong napalunok. Hays, tameme na naman ako.
"I-I don't know, kuya." sabi ko.
"Huh?" nakita ko na lamang si kuya sa gilid ko habang pinagmamasdan ang gwapong lalaki na nasa harapan namin. Naka-white shirt lang sya habang nakasilid ang kanyang mga kamay sa kanyang bulsa.
"Sino ka? Magnanakaw ka ba? Carnapper? O kaya akyat-bahay?" simpleng tanong ni kuya. Agad napaawang ang mga labi ko sa kaswal na tanong ni kuya. Ganun lang 'yun? Hindi ba siya magugulat o magtataka man lang?
"I'm the son of your mom's friend." sabi naman nitong lalaking 'to. Napapitik na lamang ako sa hangin ng mapagtantong siya 'yung sinasabi ni mom na anak ng kaibigan niya.
"Halika, pasok ka sa loob." pag-aaya ko sa kanya at pumasok naman siya. Kita ko ang pagtataka sa mukha ni kuya pero nagthumbs-up na lang ako sa kanya.
"What's your name?" agad kong tanong. Don't get me wrong. Ayoko lang talagang hindi kilala ang kinakausap ko. I'm just being friendly here.
"I'm Kaesley Aquiles. Long time no see, Shilly." sabi niya habang may kung anong tina-type sa phone niya at bigla na lang niyang inangat ang tingin sa akin. Biglang kumabog ang dibdib ko. Iisa lang ang kilala kong tumatawag sa akin ng Shilly. At Kaesley? As in Kaesley na first ever crush ko?!

One day, his life came to an end, but he was unexpectedly brought to life in a different world... in the company of a split personality hiding within him. Torn between two personalities, White struggles to survive in this strange, grimdark world with unfavourable, relapsing memories.

Dungeon Man Sam
Dungeon Man Sam is a character-focused slow burn dungeon-building litRPG with elements of crafting Real Time Strategy. It updates 6 days a week, with a break on Saturdays. Dungeon Man Sam Vol. 1, Dungeon Man Sam and the Orphaned Core is now available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited! Official Dungeon man Sam Discord! Drop by and say hello! We're still tiny, but if you wave to me I'm always happy to wave back and chat! --------------- In a world where dungeons function as the backbone of national economies, dungeon construction is big business. Wealthy nations spend millions to have the best dungeon builders construct labyrinthine edifices full of the most dangerous traps and planted with the strongest dungeon cores in the hope of luring powerful adventurers in to retrieve the treasures generated deep within. Samuel Tolliver works for his father, who runs the finest construction crew on the continent. It is a good life, one that keeps him close to family and that earns him enough money to pursue his inventions when he has a free moment. He even has something of a talent for fixing things and keeping the various bits of equipment running. It should have been the best job in the world. There's just one problem. Sam hates dungeons and wants to destroy them all some day. And he's got the plan to do it, too. But life has a way of throwing curveballs at you. When a series of disastrous events that he himself set in motion culminates in Sam winding up dead, he thought that was the end of it. Until a voice came to him and offered him a deal, one he simply couldn't refuse. Now Dungeon Man Sam has returned to life as the guardian for a strange new dungeon core, one that will turn everything he knows about the world upside down and force him to set aside his hatred of dungeons. For the sake of himself, his friends, and his family, Sam must construct a dungeon like the world has never seen before and defend it against all comers, be they monstrous or adventurous. If he succeeds, he'll get to see his family again. If he fails, everyone he knows will fall into the grave. And somewhere beyond the range of his knowledge, something ancient and terrible stirs and takes notice. Dungeon Man Sam: When all you have is a hammer, you build. --------------- This Is A Work In Progress: This isn't the final form of Dungeon Man Sam, there's gonna be some typos, and things may change between chapters as I realize "crap, I didn't set that up nearly as well as I thought I did". I'll let you know if anything like that happens, and if you notice anything that you think is worth pointing out, feel free to let me know! Hope you enjoy the story!
