SHE

Who had fair and glowing skin... Thick, long, and shiny black wavy hair... A pair of aqua-colored, sparkling eyes. And the one who'd been loved by elders, admired by children, and the pride of the family.

SHE is my sister...

My sister, who had everything that I don't, who got all that I want and received all that I've longed for.

I hate her, but I want to be like her.

Despite being a boy, I strived to be an equal to her. I've grown my hair and taken good care of my skin. I achieved the perfect replica of her.

But just being only a copycat has never been enough.
I lived as a living picture of her image and became the scenery of my family who misses her. I'm still not equal.

Then one day, no one saw it coming...

A circumstance occurred that twisted the cycle of our world which I did not expect would change everything that we used to and opened the door to the next chapter of my bittersweet life.

The circumstance that crossed my path to the girl I never thought would play a huge part in my life...

That one girl who spoiled me with attention and filled my empty existence with genuine affection.

But... In just a blink of an eye, death took her from me.

Her sudden death caused dubiety to all of us...

Suicidal? No... Someone surely murdered her...


But... Our only question is...
.
.
.
Who?

Bittersweet Life

Amber was standing in front of a clinic. After contemplating what Tristan told her a million times, Amber decided to do it. She was persuaded, not because Tristan did a great job at persuading her but, because Tristan made her realize that she also didn't want to be imprisoned by her own demons.


Amber stood in front of a clinic for a couple of minutes and took a deep breath before entering the clinic. A woman wearing a pair of neat and formal violet nurse-like uniforms, greeted her with a sweet smile at the receiving desk.


"Good afternoon, ma'am. How may I help you?" The woman smiled as she prepared the pen and the log book.


"Uh… I have an appointment with Dr. Suarez today, I'm Amber Ricks."


"Alright. Please, give me a moment to check it. Wait for a while, Ma'am."


After scanning her computer, the woman turned her attention back to Amber and gently open the logbook. "Kindly sign here, Ma'am. Then, go to room 401 afterwards. Thank you."
