Just Sweet Dreams

She turned off the light, hoping that the night will offer her a promise of sweet dreams. Tomorrow will be Saturday and Mailie will be helping her Nanay prepare the chicharon, salted peanuts she’s going to sell. She closed her eyes, and suddenly she was halfway asleep when a soft brush of hands crawled in her thigh. She was caught in between dreams and reality, but she saw a man’s figure leaning towards her to steal a kiss…

The next scenes became a nightmare that she wished it truly was. She tried to resist his grasp but he was strong enough for her to fight back. A beam of the moonlight struck the face of the silhouette; she saw her stepfather’s face with a grin and malice. Then she became the piece of wood pierced by a hammered nail.

The Flight: Ronald Tubid's Journey

Tubid

by GENESSA A. BUENAFE

The Fast, The Furious, the Fearless and the Saint

They called him so many names but it all sums up to one man. The basketball court is the battlefield he played with a keen eye and a set of skills. Anointed with the number ‘71’ in the back of his jersey shirt and a slamming ‘Barangay Ginebra Kings’ at the front, he plays the game with the zest for victory. Amidst failures and trails, he showed good character and a true sense of sportsmanship proving that beneath the name, the game and the fame, there is a true man beneath it: Ronald Gonzaga Tubid.
