Growth requires us to leave something behind. It can be our habits, beliefs, mindset, and even people. This is why creating space for grief in the midst of growth is important.You will mourn your former life to make space for a newer you. Let go if it no longer serves a good purpose. There's still a lot to look forward to in this life than being stuck in the same old cycle.“If you want Genevieve to come back, be a MAN.” Seryosong sambit ni Kuya Salvius.Hindi ko maintindihan kung ano ang tinutukoy niya. I am being a fucking man. Ano pa bang kailangan kong gawin at patunayan?“If you want to grow, you have to seek change. Change your routines, way of thinking, habits, and actions.” Seryosong sambit ni Kuya Salvius.“Naiintindihan ko na naguguluhan at nalilito ka pa rin sa nangyayari at sa nararamdaman mo. Hindi masamang mag tanong.” Dagdag pa niya.I was so lost. Mas lalo lang ako naguluhan sa kung ano ba talaga ang pinupunto niya.“I don't get it.” Reklamo ko habang seryosong nakatingin sakanya.“Of course you don't get it. Bago lahat sa'yo, at hindi ka rin sanay na ganito.” Natatawang sambit ni Kuya Salvius habang naka kibit ang kaniyang balikat.“Nung umalis na parang bula si Genevieve, anong naramdaman mo?” Tanong ni Kuya Salvius dahilan para mapaisip ako.Ano nga ba ang naramdaman ko?“Hindi ko alam, pero parang may kulang, may nawawala.” Seryoso ngunit mahina kong sambit.“You know why? Kasi kahit itanggi mo, kahit sabihin mong hindi, alam mo at alam nating lahat na naging parte, o should I say, parte pa rin siya ng buhay mo.” Natatawa niyang sambit.“Aminin mo man o hindi, si Genevieve ang dahilan bakit naging okay ka, kung bakit nagkaroon ng kulay yang walang buhay mong pagkatao.” Nakangising sambit ni Kuya Salvius.He's right, nang mamatay ang parents ko ay mas lalo lang akong naging bato, nawalan na ng kulay tuluyan ang buhay ko. Parang iisang direksyon lang ang nakikita ko, at yun ay ang mapalago ang trabaho.Hindi ko na naisip ang sarili ko, miski ang kalusugan o kasiyahan ko ay nabalewala nalang. Sa pag tatrabaho at pag papalago ng kumpanya ang naging focus ko. Hindi ko na makuhang pumarty o makipag usap sa ibang mga tao na hindi related sa trabaho.Nabuhay ako na puro trabaho ang iniisip, not until Genevieve came. Nagbago ang lahat, yung dating walang kulay na buhay kobay unti unting napapalitan, nagkakaroon ng liwanag. Na kahit ako mismo sa sarili ko ay hindi matanggap, hindi makapaniwala.“Everything changed when Genevieve came, right?” Tanong ni Kuya Salvius kaya seryoso akong tumango.“In denial Jerk.” Dagdag ni Kuya Salvius kaya bahagya akong natigilan at mapaisip.

"I am afraid. I am scared, because the last time I asked, the last time I begged, nasaktan lang ako." Sambit ni Ryen at nag iwas ng tingin sa akin. "Ryen, you weren't asking for too much — you were just asking the wrong person. Ask again." Seryosong sambit ni Davian. "This time, ask again."

Biro niya pang muli. "Charms." Nakangiti kong sambit.

"He liked her. And she liked him." Pag paparinig ni Ate Haya sa amin. "But they kept acting like they didn't." Naka ngising sambit ni Kuya Iyo. Everyone around us knew. It was obvious. Maybe it was real. Just not brave enough to confess and tell. "I was not brave enough to admit." Sambit ko at nag iwas ng tingin. "While I was scared to know the truth. That you didn't like me." Sambit ni Annaya.

“What time you coming out? We started losing light.” Bigkas ni Achilles. He’s basically waiting for Saraiah to come see him, but as it gets dark, he’s worried Saraiah might not show up. It shows how he’s feeling unsure and a little bit sad as he waits.“I don’t wanna be your friend, I wanna kiss your lips.” Muling sambit ni Achilles. He doesn’t just want to be friends with Saraiah. He wants to be close to her in a romantic way. He’s being honest about what he really feels. He wants to kiss her because that shows love and a deeper connection than just friendship.“Are you getting our point?” Tumatawang sambit ni Ryen, trying to hide her excitement.“Nalilito.” Bulong ni Annaya.“I’m falling for you, I’m falling for you, I’m falling for you.” Sabay na sambit ni Achilles at Saraiah. Achilles can’t stop thinking about Saraiah, the same as her, she can’t stop thinking about Achilles. It’s like they’re both telling themselves how they feel, and can’t deny it anymore, not again.

May taong nakaka alam pa ba sa mga bagay na gusto ko? Sa mga bagay na ayaw ko? Tanong ni Kali sakanyang sarili. While Nathan is just looking at her, thinking....

They both love each other until one day,  when Elishianna wakes up, Alpheus is gone and nowhere to be found. He just left without a proper goodbye and telling her his reason. Alpheus is like a balloon that is unintentionally released, vanished out of sight."Whatever will be, will be. The future is not ours to see. Don't worry, if it's supposed to happen, it will." Napatitig na lang ako sa maliit na papel na iniwan sa akin ni Silas."Alpheus 'Silas' Gabriel..." Mahinang bigkas ko habang unti unting tumutulo ang mga luha sa aking mata.
