CHAPTER ONE

ATHANASIA'S POV

When the time came, all they could remember was how much of a good girl I was. They won't be talking about my screams, the horror I brought, the pain I felt. Nothing. They would just compliment me. Besides, aren't I the daughter of a well-known mayor of the city and the famous and beautiful actress of the country? Oh, how I know how they would face the cameras and fake their tears. All that to cover up their mess.

I stood up and faced my mirror. Pahigpit nang pahigpit ang hawak ko sa kutsilyong kinuha ko sa kusina. They would be glad that I'll be gone. Lesser problems like what Mom said.

I smiled at my reflection, the smile that Mom forced me to perfect, and as quick as I could, I slashed my throat. Lots of blood coming out of it. I didn't feel pain though I began choking on my blood, and instead of crying, I laughed at my miserable life.

I'm tired of this sh*tty life. Finally, I can end this. Slowly, my eyes shut. Goodbye, sorrowful life. I can finally rest in peace.

The End.

I stretched my arms and my neck. Kahit na ang mga binti ko ay hindi ko napigilang iinat. Grabe! 'Di ako hinayaang makatulog hangga't 'di ko natatapos. I think I can sleep now. Papatayin ko na sana ang laptop ko nang may biglang pumasok sa isip ko at automatic na para bang nawala ang antok ko.

Ghad! 'Di ko nga pala pwedeng i-post hangga't hindi nae-edit. Inabot ko muna ang phone ko saka binuksan ang app ko. As expected, 99+ na naman ang nasa notifications ko. I let out a small smile and read some of the notifications.

Andami ko pang notifications doon kaya lang tinatamad na akong basahin. Unfortunately, my eyes stopped at a certain message.

I sighed and turned off my phone. I humorlessly laughed. How can I write something that I don't know? Syempre roon ako sa topic na alam na alam ko.

Napailing na lang ako saka bumalik sa laptop ko at nagsimulang mag-edit para mai-publish ko na ang final four chapters.

I focused my attention on my seventh novel. I should be celebrating, now that I have finished another literary work. I should be... but... how do a person celebrate?

I have decided to set that thought aside and just finish this task. I'll just worry about that once I finish this.

It took me almost a couple of hours to finish and be satisfied with my edited work before I published the final chapters and note the story as completed.

Napaunat na lang ako ng mga braso't mga binti. Finally, after a month, I was able to put an end to that a hundred-thousand-word novel.

"Hay! Buti pa yung novel may katapusan! Paano naman 'tong paghihirap ko? Ehem ehem, ano? Hindi naman sa nagpaparinig ako sa taong responsable sa sitwasyon kong ito pero parang ganoon na nga."
