HER ADDICTION

What do you think you are doing?' She abruptly stood to her feet, pushing the man away from her. 'And who are you? What are you doing in my house and kitchen?' The unknown man rose to his feet, wearing a puzzled look. "Your house? Your kitchen?" "Yes," Nino tried to sound confident even though mere looking at him sent cold blood down her spine. "A burglar won't be treating himself to dinner so who the heck are you?" "I should be asking you this," his cold impassive voice came again. "Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" After being cheated on by her boyfriend. Nino learnt her house has been sold to a complete stranger, the news of her parent's house being sold by the man her parents borrowed a loan from and couldn't pay back before their death. The news hit Nino Peterson to the core. She swore to take back her parent's house but when she realized the amount the man bought her house, she knew she couldn't pay him on time or send him packing either. So the two reached a compromise that she will still live in her parent's house until she was able to pay back the amount the man paid on her house. But will she be able to live under the same roof with a man knowing he's a complete stranger and the atmosphere will not be the same anymore? And when she also learns the truth about the man living under the same roof with her, would she be able to deal with it?

THE MIRACLE

Third Person Narrator

All energy drained from Toro. She's gone. The doctor's words rang multiple in his ears. Nino can't die, she still has a long way to go. She still has a long life to live. Her life can't be cut short now.

Sadness twinkled in doctor Kenneth's eyes as he watched the young man walk over to Nino's bed. The look on his face was that of a defeated warrior who has lost the battle. He watched him take Nino's hand in his and buried his face in the bed. His heart bled as he couldn't do anything to save her.

If anyone had told him this is the last time he will see Nino, he wouldn't have believed it. He rubbed away the tears building in his eyes at the sight of Nino's limp body. He hadn't known Nino for a long time but with the times she showed up in the hospital, he has gotten to know her. She's one of the nice kind women he came across.
