Tristeza (English)

ANVI My eyes refused to close. The crickets and the sound of the leaves dancing quietly with the wind kept me awake. I felt the cold breeze of air from the opened window, hitting my skin as I closed my eyes, still drowning with the deep ocean thought in my mind. My bed felt warm but it can't change the coldness I am feeling at this rate. It makes my spine shiver everytime I remember the moments we've been together: the laughters, the quarrels, as well as the cries. I can feel my heart slowly breaking apart. It's like I am being stabbed for how many times until my blood runs out. It's like I am walking on the road full of broken glasses that every step I make, hurts me badly. The sobs I h

ANVI After closing the bedroom's door, I sat at the chair near me. I still can't believe what Zilla did. It just added to the things that I'm thinking—Jof, Kryzel, Dernate. I heaved another sigh of frustration as Dernate's voice echoed inside my head. "I just wonder if you were also like this when our rainbow met its end." A memory flashed. A memory that once haunted me for the past days of my life. A memory that I also wanted to bury deep into the land of the forgotten.  "Let's meet up to the u

ANVI After the encounter with Kryzel, I sent a text message to Zilla saying that I'll be waiting near Jeruo's car at the driveway. Despite of the physical pain I'm suffering at the moment, emotions still dominated within me. The pain because of my wounds and scratches is nothing compared to what I'm feeling right now. I don't mind the little amount of blood coming out from my forearm but I was thinking about the person who did this. Kryzel, why did she become like this? As far as I remember, she's never been like that back then. She was my best friend. How did this all happen? Our peaceful friendship was just destroyed that easy? Is Jof really worthy that she's willing to taint our bond? 

ANVI "What?!" My scream echoed inside the bedroom when my clock stated that it was already eleven in the morning! I am worse than late! My head throbbed as I quickly got up from my bed. This is what I get for sleeping at seven am! I didn't mean to! It's not my fault if I can't forget what Dernate had told me yesterday! It's not my fault that he just suddenly spat some random things that would keep me awake 'till morning! This is his fault! I dashed to the bathroom to take a bath before heading straight downstairs. Maybe Zilla already went to work and didn

ANVI "Hey." I immediately spoke as soon as I sat at the chair near Jeniss. My fever just disappeared yesterday day and I'm sure that I'm already well. My head stopped aching, my hands stopped shaking, and the scratches already healed. There are few students inside the classroom. Some are talking, laughing or just staring at nowhere. I looked at Jeniss who's now looking at me too. "Are you already fine?" she asked, smiling. "Of course. What about you? Are you okay?" I asked back. She's too behave today and it's kinda bothering me. I'm not used to this demure Jeniss. She sighed and looked away. "No, I'm not." She looked at me, with a weak smile. What's going on? After hearing her answer, a pang of worry crept through me. I moved closer to her. "Why? What's the matter?" Slowly, she faced me. I can tell that she's really not okay. I was just
