[soracities]

what are your suggestions for starter poetry for people who dont have strong reading/analysis backgrounds

I've answered this a few times so I'm going to compile and expand them all into one post here.

I think if you haven't read much poetry before or aren't sure of your own tastes yet, then poetry anthologies are a great place to start: many of them will have a unifying theme so you can hone in based on a subject that interests you, or pick your way through something more general. I haven't read all of the ones below, but I have read most of them; the rest I came across in my own readings and added to my list either because I like the concept or am familiar with the editor(s) / their work:

Staying Alive: Real Poems for Unreal Times (ed. Nick Astley) & Being Alive: The Sequel to Staying Alive (there's two more books in this series, but I'm recommending these two just because it's where I started)

The Rattlebag (ed. Seamus Heaney and Ted Hughes)

The Ecco Anthology of International Poetry (ed. Ilya Kaminsky & Susan Harris)

The Essential Haiku, Versions of Basho, Buson and Issa (ed. Robert Hass)

A Book of Luminous Things (ed. Czesław Miłosz )

Now and Then: The Poet's Choice Columns by Robert Hass (this may be a good place to start if you're also looking for commentary on the poems themselves)

Poetry Unbound: 50 Poems to Open Your World(ed. Pádraig Ó'Tuama)

African American Poetry: 250 Years of Struggle and Song (ed. Kevin Young)

The Art of Losing: Poems of Grief and Healing (ed. Kevin Young)

Lifelines: Letters from Famous People about their Favourite Poems

The following lists are authors I love in one regard or another and is a small mix of different styles / time periods which I think are still fairly accessible regardless of what your reading background is! It's be no means exhaustice but hopefully it gives you even just a small glimpse of the range that's available so you can branch off and explore for yourself if any particular work speaks to you.

But in any case, for individual collections, I would try:

anything by Sara Teasdale

Devotions / Wild Geese / Felicity by Mary Oliver

Selected Poems and Prose by Christina Rossetti

Collected Poems by Langston Hughes

A Red Cherry on a White-Tiled Floor / Barefoot Souls by Maram al-Masri

Tell Me: Poems / What is This Thing Called Love? by Kim Addonizio

The Trouble with Poetry by Billy Collins (Billy Collins is THE go-to for accessible / beginner poetry in my view so I think any of his collections would probably do)

Crush by Richard Siken

Rapture / The World's Wife by Carol Ann Duffy

The War Works Hard by Dunya Mikhail

Selected Poems by Walt Whitman

View with a Grain of Sand by Wislawa Szymborska

Collected Poems by Vasko Popa

Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth by Warsan Shire,

Nostalgia, My Enemy: Selected Poems by Saadi Youssef

"The Mermaid" // "Virtuosi" by Lisel Mueller

"Macrophobia (Fear of Waiting)" by Jamaal May

"Someday I'll Love Ocean Vuong" by Ocean Vuong

"Still I Rise" by Maya Angelou

I would also recommend spending some times with essays, interviews, or other non-fiction, creative or otherwise (especially by other poets) if you want to broaden and improve how you read poetry; they can help give you a wider idea of the landscape behind and beyond the actual poems themselves, or even just let you acquaint yourself with how particular writers see and describe things in the world around them. The following are some of my favourites:

Upstream: Essays by Mary Oliver

"Theory and Play of the Duende" by Federico García Lorca

In That Great River: A Notebook by Anna Kamienska

A Little Devil in America: Notes in Praise of Black Performance by Hanif Abdurraqib

big 4 univ but newjeans editionnnnn

lasallian engineering student minji na nakikipagcompete sa botb every year - typical famous sa campus and has a lot of admirers (maraming nagcoconfess sa anonymous page 😭😭😭😭) (very malinis tignan, has cool school fits) may car ‘to for sure (something honda civic)

thomasian literature (ab) / tourism (cthm) student hanni na nasa honors lagi and kasali sa singing competitions every event - maraming admirers and maraming natatanggal na letters and gifts kapag valentine’s day (amoy baby, literal talaga kaya maraming nagccling sa kanya 😭😭) (kasali sa mga kind and conyo girlies - nagala after class always and everyday) (joyride girlie since malapit lang naman condo niya sa campus)

atenean culinary student na kasali sa student council danielle - laging nanonominate sa school pageants and lagi ring nananalo 😵‍💫😵‍💫 (chika and acads yung priority) (girl’s girl 😭😭😭 feel ko siya yung nagaapproach sa girl kapag natagusan or ganyan then bibigyan niya ng unused napkin niya na available) (lagi kang issave sa kahihiyan 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻) (fave student ng professors niya) (maraming naffriendzone 😬😬😬😬, friendly kasi sa lahat)

thomasian fine arts student (cfad) / nursing (or something related sa med) and ust salinggawi dancer haerin - famous pero lowkey and private person na minsan lang makita sa campus kasi busy sa acads pero kapag lumalabas na, maraming nagggreet sa kanya sa hallways (friendly and smiley naman once na makaencounter mo sha - maganda ngiti neto masyado kaya maraming nahuhulog), amoy baby daw (proven and tested - out of league ng nakakaramihan, happy crush ng lahat) BASTA MARAMING ADMIRERS 😤😤 (may car din, color gray or white - siguro mazda cx-50 na gift sa kanya ng dad niya) (maraming nagpapapic after ng shift niya??????) (fresh pa din kahit med student)

thomasian shs humss student hyein na sumasali sa mga debate competitions - future attorney hyein me thinks (typa girl na aakalain mo na masungit pero maingay and approachable pala) (maganda na, nageexcel pa sa acads fr) (laging hinahatid ng daddy niya pagpasok 😭😭😭😭😭) (suited din sha sa feu actually, kaso big 4 edi ust nalang 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻) (may kalog moments 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫) (may tiktok acc para sa vlogs niya for her ust journey - short vlogs sa tiktok na puro vids lang na kumakain at gumagastos siya)

halata ba na haerin biased ako……. bye

- 🩵

3/5 thomasian… girl, why?

engineering major lasallian! minji with atenean! reader, for sure this girl is both brains and beauty but downside girlie has no time for you bc HELLO ENGINEERING MAJOR???? famous on and off campus, always ALWAYS being posted on the freedom wall

shoutout to my crush minji, looks like a red flag but i’m colorblind so idc

but then again, who said atenean! reader isn’t famous as well

thomasian! hanni… i still see her as an architecture major. she sorta screams red flag behavior. for this ask, tourism major thomasian! hanni. SUPER FRIENDLY! this girl is an introvert but her major requires her to be an extrovert. paired this with lasallian! journalism major reader and that’s a pair that is required to be extroverts in their own world. well known at campus - like she probably has been picked to model the uniforms.

CULINARY MAJOR ATENEAN! DANIELLE!!! i have nothing else to say but she’s the greenest or green flags - problem is you’re the delinquent in the relationship. will cook her way to your heart but will also find a way to understand you to the point that everything can be communicated… its for sure a thomasian! reader

HAERIN 🫵 tbh i don’t see haerin as a thomasian, sorry anon but similar sense with minji, this girl is just too busy to have a relationship at the moment. CAREER DRIVEN BUT HELLO, EVERYONE LIKES HER AND IS GETTING SHOUTOUTS IN ALMOST EVERY MAJOR EVENT! fresh after duty at ust hospital like she is very meticulous with everything - probably the only green flag in the thomasian! idols… i feel like thomasian! reader would be a good pairing for this

pre med major! haerin… but lasallian biomed major haerin!!!!! who you met at campus during arw as an officer of your org and getting her to sign up (even getting her socials in the process). yes, she’s busy af but so are you and tbh your majors aren’t that far and you see each other at the science building 😭

hyein as a humss shs student - about to be a lawyer but also lowkey influencer. IF THIS GIRL IS TIKTOK FAMOUS YK WHERE SHE’S GOING FOR COLLEGE 🫵 hyein and eunchae would be besties for sure. stem! student eunchae and humss! student hyein superior pairing (platonic alright) daddy’s girl or- thomasian! hanni’s girlfriend would be willing to drive hyein to school 🥰

yeah, halata na haerin biased ka anon…

#tei talks a lot #🩵 anon

BUONG GABI

Kung saan na meet mo ulit yung nakasama mo under the slide, red strobe lights with al james singing as bgm.

💭 lee haechan sa ur summer fling, smut. (Part 2)

🎧 Ngayong Gabi by Al James

(read part 1 here)

“Ohmygod natapos din” sabi mo ng matapos mo ang case study niyo, tumayo ka at nag unat unat. Agad mong kinuha ang phone mo at nag scroll sa notifs and you saw na hinahanap ka na ng mga tropa mo. Napatingin ka sa bintana at nakita mong palubog na ang araw. You’ve been doing the case study for hours sa library di mo napansin na pagabi na pala. 

Nang makarating ka sa condo niyo ay agad sumalubong sayo ang mga kaibigan mong mga nag aayos. Right, may gala nga pala. 

“Aba saan ang punta niyo?” tanong mo habang binababa ang mga gamit mo. Napatigil naman ang kaibigan mong si Joy sa paghahanap ng damit. 

“Sis di mo ba nabasa texts ko? Kanina ka pa namin hinahanap!” bulyaw nito. She took out a piece of clothing at tumabi kay Marie para mag ayos. 

“Were you in the library again? Friday naman sana pinahinga mo na” sabi ni Marie habang nag lalagay ng mascara. Tinawanan mo lang ang mga kaibigan mo sa kanilang pa-nenermon. Very usual na yung mga ganitong scene sainyo, the two of them nagging at you kasi you always miss the fun madalas. 

“Opo nabasa ko po text niyo kaya nga umuwi na ako. Malapit na yung due nung case study kaya ginawa ko na” pag eexplain mo. It took you a week para matapos yung case study na yun buti na lang natapos mo na. 

“So? Saan nga kayo pupunta?” pagtatanong mo uli. 

“House party kina Yangyang, 9pm” Joy replied habang nagbibihis na. 

“Akala ko ba hindi na tayo pupunta sa parties ni Yangyang kasi sabi niyo it's ‘too wild’? Tsaka 9pm? Eh 7pm palang at parang aligaga na kayo?” sabi mo habang pinapanood mo ang dalawa mong kaibigan. 

“I heard pupunta yung crush ko from la salle kaya pupunta tayo. And dadaanan pa natin si Chi bago pumunta dun plus traffic na din mamaya kaya mag bihis ka na at maka gora na tayo” sabi ni Marie at hinagisan ako ng damit. 

Wala kang magawa kundi mag ayos na din. Sinuot mo yung hinagis sayo na damit, it’s a black backless dress then you wore a cute sandals to match it. 

As usual si Joy ang designated driver niyo bilang mataas and alcohol tolerance siya ang nag aalaga sainyo kapag lasing na kayo. Nang masundo na nyo si Chi ay agad na kayong pumunta sa party. 

Usual ‘weekly’ house party lang naman to. Hindi pa kayo nakakapasok ay kita na agad na maraming pumunta ngayon. People are really stressed talaga sa mga ganitong panahon. Best way to de-stress? Walwal.

“Sana maka swerte ako tonight” sabi ni Chi habang inaayos ang sarili bago lumabas ng kotse. 

“Nako andyan naman si yangyang” Tumawa naman si Marie at inasar si Chi. Inirapan lang siya ni Chi at nauna ng lumabas. Only god knows why Chi and Yangyang are ‘just’ friends

“Tara na nga! Baka may makauna pa kay Yangyang”

Pag pasok niyo ay agad sumalubong sainyo ang usok at ang mga tao. As expected, Yangyang never disappoints pag dating sa ganito. Medyo marami rami na ang mga tao kaya naman nakikipag siksikan kayo para makarating sa couch nila yangyang para batiin sila. 

Nakita niyo sina Yangyang at Hendery naglalaro sa couch. 

“Ano mag lalaro nalang kayo diyan?” biglang sabi ni Chi na naka pamewang pa sa harap ng dalawa. Napatingin naman si Yangyang pero bumalik din sa pag lalaro

“Si Hendery kasi nag aya” sabi ni Yangyang na parang nanunumbong. 

Umupo kayong dalawa ni Joy sa couch habang si Marie naman ay gumora para batiin ang mga ibang kakilala nito. 

“Hindi niyo man lang kami bibigyan ng beer? Yangyang you’re better than this” pag paparinig ni Chi at umupo sa tabi ng binata. 

“Oh ayan ikaw mag laro at i’ll go and get beer. Ano ba gusto niyo?” sabi ni yangyang at biglang binigay kay sof ang phone niya. 

“Mule lang okaya san mig” sagot mo naman sa kanya. Ayaw mong mabigla kaya you’ll start with something light lang

“Yun na lang din samin ni Chi” dagdag ni Joy, tumango naman si Yangyang at pumunta na ng kusina. You sighed and threw your head sa couch, nagsisimula palang ang gabi at nakakaramdam ka na ng pagod. 

“Himala hindi ka ata rumarampa ngayon” biglang tanong sayo ni Joy. tinaasan mo siya ng kilay at tinawanan. 

“Pagod lang” sabi mo. sobrang draining ng uni kaya pati energy mo sa pag socialize at pag landi ay nawala na din. 

“That’s new, hindi ba ikaw nagsabi na stress reliever mo ang pag landi?” biglang sabi ni Chi na kakadating lang at tumabi kay Hendery. 

“Oo nga ikaw? Mapapagod sa ganito? Impossi-” dagdag ni Hendery pero agad ng naputol ang sasabihin niya when his phone rang, nang makita niya kung sino ang caller ay agad siyang tumayo at sinagot ang tawag. 

“Hoy hendery ampota wag mokong iwan dito!” bulyaw ni sof na naglalaro gamit ang cellphone ni yangyang 

“Teka lang may tumatawag- Hello? Pre? Andito na kayo?” Umalis bigla si Hendery at pumunta sa labas. dami namang bisita

“Teka parang ang tagal naman ni yangyang dumating” pagrereklamo ni Joy.

“Pupuntahan ko na wait nga” sabi mo at tumayo ka. Para na din mabati mo yung mga kakilala mo sa loob. After exchanging a few hellos ay nakarating ka sa kusina nakita mo naman si Yangyang nakikipag daldalan habang nag lalabas ng alak.

“Yangs nagrereklamo na sila dun ang tagal mo daw” sabi mo at tinulungan mo na si Yangyang sa pag bitbit ng mga alak. Napatalon ka naman ng biglang may mga nag sigawan. Nanggagaling yung ingay sa salas. 

“BROO!! LONG TIME NO SEE!! PASOK LANG KAYO!!” Dinig na sigaw ni Hendery mula sa labas

Nang matapos na si Yangyang ay bumalik na kayo sa pwesto niyo. nilapag niyo yung mga alak sa table at muli kang napatingin sa malapit sa pintuan ng batiin ni Yangyang ang mga bagong dating. 

Agad namang naningkit ang mga mata mo when you saw a familiar figure, lalapitan mo na sana ng hilahin ni Joy ang braso mo. 

“OH OH TARA TARA CHEERS” sigaw ni Joy habang itinataas ang bote ng san mig. Nakicheers ka naman at agad na lumingon kung saan ka nakatingin kanina. Agad namang nawala yung nakita mo kaya you shrug it off at nakipagkwentuhan nalang. 

After a few hours ay nakaramdam ka na. Low tol ka lang kaya medyo nararamdaman mo na after a few bottles. You decided to take a break at kumain na lang ng pizza. Napatingin naman kayong lahat ng Joy ng bigla itong nag salita.

“Yangyang sino yung mga dumating kanina?” Pasimpleng tanong ni Joy. 

“Joy, the one na may two-tone hair yung crush ko from la salle!” Agad na singit ni Marie. Nanahimik ka lang kasi hindi mo naman nakita yung mga bagong dating kanina.

“Feel ko type mo yung moreno kanina, gwapo shet” biglang sabi ni Chi sayo habang umiinom from her mule. You scoffed at napaayos ng upo. Edi okay sila na nakakita ng gwapo. 

“Kung ganun ano pang hinihintay natin? Yangyang pakilala mo naman kami sa kanila” you cheekily said. 

Medyo may tama na ako. You mentally cursed ng narealize na the alcohol is taking its effect on you based sa malanding tono mo. Pero okay you’re feeling bored na din naman kaya naman bakit hindi?

“Okay wait akyatin ko si- Oh ayan na pala eh, PRE! Patawag naman yung iba may papakilala ako sainyo” sabi ni Yangyang at nilapitan yung isang lalaki na naka dark green na sweater. Napalingon ka naman para tingnan ito.

“Okay okay i’ll go and call them” sabi nito. Tinitigan mo si kuyang naka dark green na sweater habang paakyat ito para tawagin yung iba. You started feeling uneasy, the familiar feeling that the guy gives off makes your heartbeat fast. he looks familiar...

“Sino sasama sakin? Kuha ako ng beer para dun sa mga dadating” ani ni Hendery. Tumayo naman si Joy at nag presinta na tumulong. Hindi mawala sa isip mo yung lalaki kanina at for some reason ay kinakabahan ka. Shet ano bang meron today.

You felt a presence coming sa likod mo yet di ka lumingon. You’re too scared and nervous for some reason parang may mangyayari na hindi mo inaasahan.

“Yo guys sina Mark, Renjun, Jaemin, Jeno, at si Haechan, mga tropa ko from uni” pakilala ni Yangyang sa lima. You looked away dahil sa gulat and tried to hide your face sa likod ni mon ng makarating to. Napansin naman ni Joy ang kinikilos mo kaya tinignan ka niya at tinaasan ng kilay. 

"What the fuck?" You silently cursed.

“Gaga nakatingin sayo yung isa, kilala mo?” mahinang bulong ni Joy. 

Shet shet shet anong gagawin ko. Hindi ko sila kayang harapin. Napatayo ka sa pwesto mo at hinila si Joy sa kusina. You fanned yourself using your hands and let out a frustrated groan.

“Hoy anong meron?” nagtatakang tanong ni Joy.

“Kasi...” napakagat ka naman ng labi, nag iisip kung sasabihin mo ba. 

“Kasi?”

“Naka momol ko yung isa sa kanila.” pag amin mo sa kaibigan mo

“Oh tapos?” sagot ni mon na parang it’s a normal thing. 

“Hindi. hindi lang momol yun. Naalala mo yung sa resort?” you explained further, naalala mo na kinuwento mo sa kanila kaagad yun pag balik mo ng manila. Nanlaki naman ang mata ni Joy ng maalala ang kwento mo

“OHMYGOD! the one na you made out with sa pool?” 

“Yes”

“Gaga ka sino diyan sa kanila?” sabi ng kaibigan mo at sinilip yung pwesto niyo kanina. 

“Yung naka momol ko? Yung naka peach na checkered na long sleeves...”

“What the fuck, sinagip mo ba ang mundo sa past life mo at naka momol ka ng ganun ka gwapo?” Joy said with a tone of disbelief. Totoo naman kasi masyadong too good to be true. 

Sa kabilang banda ay habang nag uusap kayo ni mon sa may kusina ay may mga pares ng mata ang nakatitig sayo. 

Walang duda, ikaw nga.

Napangisi si haechan ng makilala ka niya right away, how can he ever forget you?

Nabali naman ang atensyon ni haechan ng bigla itong tinawag ni Jaemin. 

“It’s her, bakit ayaw mong lapitan?” kalmadong tanong ni jaemin habang nakatitig din sayo. Hindi siya sinagot ni haechan at uminom lang mula sa bote ng beer. Halatang di niya alam kung paano ka i-aapproach.

“Dude, really? That’s new.” Jaemin laughed as he felt haechan’s frustration. Renjun overheard the conversation and decided to join in

“Ang tumal mo naman ngayon” sabi ni Renjun at inakbayan ang kaibigan. Sinamaan lang ito ng tingin at tinanggal ang pag kakaakbay. 

“Fuck off, alam ko ang gagawin ko.”

“Tara na bumalik na tayo dun” pag aaya sayo ni Joy. 

“Nahihiya ako” Umiling ka dahil ayaw mo pa bumalik.

“Naka momol mo na at lahat lahat?” Sumbat ni Joy. That’s the point! Naka momol mo kaya nahihiya ka!

“Gaga bahala ka dyan babalik ako nangangawit na ako kakatayo” dagdag ni Joy at biglang tumalikod. Hindi mo siya pinigilan at pumunta ka nalang din sa labas. Kailangan mo magpahingin at pakalmahin ang sarili mo. 

Pag labas mo ay bumungad sayo ang pool at garden sa bahay nila yangyang. You decided to chill sa may nipa hut sa may pool side dahil wala namang nakatambay dun. Mas konti ang tao dito sa may labas kesa sa loob. 

You took out your phone and scrolled through your camera roll, finding a certain picture. Nang mahanap mo yung picture ay tinitigan mo ito. It was a picture nung papel na binigay sayo ni Haechan last summer, you decide to took a picture of incase na mawala mo. 

After that day, you never dared to contact him. Pinangunahan ka ng hiya. Ano namang sasabihin mo if ever you did? Hello? Ako nga pala yung nakamomol mo under the slide? No way.

You’re too distracted by your thoughts kaya di mo napansin na someone’s coming. He smiled when he saw your face na naka simangot. With two bottles of beer in hand he casually sat in front of you. 

Kita sa mukha mo ang gulat pero hey you expected this to happen. Sandaling nagtama ang mga mata niyo at agad kang umiwas ng tingin.

“What are the odds? Sinong mag aakala na we’ll meet each other again?” He said with a grin plastered in his face. You badly want to punch him in the face pero he’s too hot. 

“Uhh did we meet before?” hala tangina ang bobo mo self!

Haechan raised his brows and stared at you, “I see, ganito pala. I'll play along” he said with a smirk on his face. You can feel your heartbeat increasing again, sino ba kasi ang nagsabi na magpanggap ka pa? 

“What do you mean?” you said, still playing your act. Bahala na!

“We made out in the pool” Haechan bluntly said nasaktuhan naman na umiinom ka kaya naman muntik mo na mabuga yun iniinom mo. you look at his with widened eyes and looked around if may nakarinig. 

“No we didn’t, anyway see you around” you said with a nervous laugh. You quickly stood up and umalis sa nipa hut. Felt a grip around your wrist kaya napatigil ka. Huminga ka ng malalim and hinarap siya. 

“Then, shall I make you remember babe?” Haechan said while looking straight at you then he cocked his head towards the pool. Tangina, what does he mean by that?

“Okay fine I remember, happy?” you decided to drop the act, Ayokong umuwi ng basa.

“You okay?” pag balik mo sa look ay agad kang tinanong ni Chi at inabutan ka ng juice, sa totoo lang? Hindi na ata.

“So ano nangyari?” bulong ni Joy, sasagot ka na sana ng biglang sumigaw si mark. 

“Hey! You’re here?! Wassup!” sabi ni Mark and greeted you. Ngayon nasayo na naman ang atensyon ng lahat. Nung binati ka ni Mark ay sunod sunod ka ng binati nila Jeno.

All of you enjoyed the rest of the night. nag laro kayo ng spin the bottle and other stuff. Halata na lasing na ang iba dahil si Jeno yakap na yakap na kay Renjun at yung iba naman ay tumatayo na at sumasayaw. Habang tinatawanan mo sa Jaemin na sumasayaw na ngayon sa gitna at biglang nag tama ang mata niyo ni Haechan. 

Mula nung nangyari sa may backyard ay hindi na kayo masyado nagpapansinan ni Haechan, Kasi naman para saan yung nangyari kanina sa pool? Ang gulo ha

Tinaasan mo ng kilay si Haechan and mouthed him ‘ano?’, Haechan stood up at nilapitan ka. Agad ka  namang napasandal sa couch ng ilagay niya ang kamay niya sa mga gilid mo at ilapit niya ang mukha niya at bumulong. 

“You look pretty”

And what if that is my last straw?

Haechan stood up and went to the kitchen leaving you dumbfounded. what the fuck? Agad naman kang tumayo at sinundan si Haechan. Nakita mo siya kumukuha ng alak

“What was that for?” You asked habang naka lean sa counter top. 

“I mean it babe”

“Can you please stop calling me babe?”

“Would you like to be called mine instead?” Haechan said with a flirty tone. Pero syempre hindi ka papatalo. 

You pulled his checkered sleeves and whispered to his ear, “i’d like to see you try” 

Haechan smirked and slowly closed the distance and nung tatakas ka na haechan trapped you between his arms. Ayan sandal ka pa sa counter top ah.

“Okay mine, would you like to be mine for the rest of the night?” Haechan said as he gazed upon your lips and eyes. Napatango ka lang naman unconsciously. 

He moved his head closer and you closed your eyes waiting for his lips to touch yours. Bigla ka namang napadilat ng maramdaman mo ang labi niya sa cheeks mo. 

“As much as I want to kiss you right now, madaming makakakita satin baby.” sabi ni Haechan and he tucked a hair in your ear. 

“Tara na hinahanap na nila tayo” he said at hinila ka niya pabalik sa pwesto niyo.

biglang dumami yung tao sa pwesto niyo at halos isang tao na lang ang kasya sa couch. Mabilis mong tinanggal ang pagkakahawak ni Haechan sayo (buti walang nakakita!) at pupunta ka na sana sa tabi ni Joy ng pigilan ka ni haechan. 

“Wala ka ng pwesto dun” 

“Oh okay i’ll get a chair nalang”

“No sit here” sabi naman ni Haechan and you confusedly stared at him. 

“Sit where? Eh halos wala ng space dyan” turo mo sa tabi pagitan ni Haechan at ang katabi niyang si Jaemin. 

“Sit on my lap” Haechan said and tapped his thighs. ano saan ako uupo?

“Maraming tao gago ka ba?” medyo napalakas ang pag kakasabi mo  kaya naman meron iilang napatingin sa gawi namin, by ‘iilan’  ay ang mga kaibigan mo. 

“Does it matter?” pabalik niyang tanong sayo. He has a point, ano naman kung kakandong ka sa kanya?  Ilang segundo kayo nag titigan trying to see kung sino mas matigas sa inyong dalawa. But in the end you gave up and made yourself comfortable in his lap. 

“Much better” Haechan said and wrapped his other arm around your waist. You blushed at his gesture.

Everyone’s super wasted, you can hear all of your friends whining and groaning dahil sa kalasingan. Surprisingly you’re still not THAT drunk kasi sinasalo ni Haechan yung tagay mo. naramdaman mo naman na nilagay ni Haechan ang baba niya sa shoulder mo. yes nasa kandungan ka pa din ni Haechan. 

“Ohh? Are you drunk na?” you asked and side eyed him. 

“No not yet,” he said at umiling. His faint breathing tickles your neck and ears. 

“Sa dami ng tinagay mo di ka pa nalasing?” you said with an amusing tone. 

“High tol ako” he said at tumawa. 

“Sus talaga ba? baka naman niloloko mo lang ako”

“Babe if im drunk di mo ako makakausap ng maayos”

“Hmm good point” 

You felt hot so you decided to tie your hair. habang nag tatali ka ay you felt something soft touch your neck. It sent shivers down your spine. fuck, you silently cursed. Backless nga pala yung dress mo and now you have your hair tied up your back is exposed. 

“You smell good, ” Haechan said, still kissing your back. you squirmed in his lap as his lips continues to place butterfly kisses on your back.

“Haechan...” you said with a warning tone. Kahit na lasing na yung mga kasama nila andami pa din tao na pwedeng maka kita sa inyo. 

“Hmmm” he hummed in response, he’s now kissing your shoulder up to your neck. Huminga ka ng malalim at tumayo sa kandungan niya. 

“Wag dito” sabi mo and you grabbed his hand and pulled him sa kusina. Haechan smirked and let you drag him. Buti naman walang tao sa kusina kaya naman Haechan pinned you against the wall kaagad. He didn’t kiss you agad which made you impatient. 

“So ano titigan mo nalang ako?” mataray mong sabi. Haechan laughed and smiled

“You’re so pretty. I can’t help but to stare” he lifted your chin up and kissed you, passionately. The kiss made your legs wobbly, napakapit ka sa braso niya. 

You missed this feeling, you missed his kisses, you missed him.

“Haech” you accidentally moaned when he bit your lips. Nagulat ka naman when the kiss became intense. He pressed his body onto you kaya naman dikit na dikit ka sa wall. teka di naman ako mawawala

Haechan broke the kiss and tapped your thighs, “Legs up, baby” 

Despite your tight fitted dress you lifted your legs up and let Haechan carry you and gently place you at the counter top. You automatically placed your hands at the back of his head and pulled him for another kiss. 

Haechan chuckled and placed his hands around your waist. As the two of you kiss like there’s no tomorrow. One of your friends shouted that made you and Haechan jump in surprise

“Hoy gaga! Text me kung uuwi ka! Pero mukhang hindi! Basta text mo nalang ako! Mauuna na kami!” Joy shouted mula sa sala, both you and Haechan stared at each other’s surprised faces and laughed. 

Haechan placed a quick kiss at your nose and asked, “My place?”

You giggled and nodded at him. He grabbed your waist and helped you makababa ka sa countertop na medyo mataas pala. paano niya ako naakyat dun? you wondered. Pag labas niyo ng kusina ay nakatanggap kayong dalawa ng asar at mga kantsaw sa mga kaibigan niyo. 

“Grabe meant to be ata kayo”

“Hinay lang naman”

“Respeto sa single”

“Get a room”

“Sana all nalang”

Mabilis niyong dinaanan ang mga kaibigan niyo at nagtungo na sa labas. Nasa parking kayo and haechan stopped at a dashing red mustang. Napasipol ka naman at tintigan ang kotse.

“Nice ride” 

“Right, and you will be riding me next” he playfully said nang makapasok siya sa loob. Hinampas mo naman siya at tinakpan mo ang mukha mong namumula. 

“Gago ka talaga”

“Bakit? Am I wrong?” Jesus take the wheel na po.

Haechan started the engine and looked back para makaalis sa pag kaka park. He placed an arm in your headrest and slowly drove the car in reverse. 

And that’s the hottest thing that you’ve seen today, it feels like Haechan became 100x hotter than before. Nang makaalis na kayo sa pwesto ay nag drive na si Haechan papunta sa condo niya.

The two of you were silent until his phone rang, may text message. Haechan picked his phone up to check the message with his other hand. 

“Hay nako, eyes on the road mister” sabi mo then you crossed your arms. Haechan gave you a quick glance at binaba ang phone niya. 

“My bad, out of habit lang” sabi niya at bigla ulit kayong natahimik. Unsure what to do with the awkward silence between you too you reached out your hand and tapped his thigh. 

“Baby, not here.” Haechan jokingly said and lightly slapped your hand away. Nanlaki naman ang mata mo at hinampas siya

“Hoy nakakailan ka n-” hinapas mo siya uli

“Isa pa hahalik- teka i'm driving!”

“Ikaw kung ano ano nasa isip mo! tatanungin lang kita if i can listen to music” you immediately said at tumawa naman si Haechan. He placed his hand to your thigh and gently caressed it. 

“Naninigurado lang ako. i'm up for it but baby safety first, okay?” sabi niya, inirapan mo lang siya at pilit mong kinakalma sarili mo dahil you’re feeling things dahil sa kamay sa hita mo. 

Not gonna lie, you could get used to this.

Haechan pulled up and both of you hurriedly went inside, atat lang?

As soon as the door closed Haechan immediately pinned you against the wall and claimed your lips. you pressed your body to him and kissed him back. Haechan’s hands travelled down from your arms to your waist, feeling every inch of your body.

“God, this dress does wonders on you” he said between the kiss, his kisses went down to your neck and you tilted your head to give him better access. 

“Hmm? I think I look better without it” you teased, lifting his chin to meet his eyes. His eyes went darker and you yelped when he flipped you around. 

“I bet you do”

With your face facing the wall, Haechan peppered your bare back with kisses and his hands reaching for your breast. A tiny moan escaped when he squeezed your left boob.

“No bra? How convenient” 

You gasped when you felt his hand in your inner thighs. He placed his thigh between your legs for support.

“Haech” you moaned his name when you felt something weird in your stomach when haechan traveled his hands up to your thighs. He hummed and continued to tease you

you whined and turned around, you badly want to feel him too. You placed your arms around his neck and kissed him. He lifted you up and you wrapped your legs to his waist. 

Pumunta at umupo si Haechan sa couch without breaking the kiss. You’re now sitting on top of him kaya naman you smirked and rolled your hips. The unexpected friction made the both of you moan. Haechan slid his tongue inside of your mouth and placed his hands at your waist to press you harder to him as you grind on his lap. 

“Fuck baby” he moaned and threw his head back the you latched your lips to neck, leaving marks. You bit your lips when you felt his clothed member become hard as you grind your hips. Haechan grabbed your ass and lifted you up once again. 

This time he gently placed you on his bed and removed his shirt. Exposing his toned body, he smirked when he saw you staring at his body. 

“Like what you see?” Haechan said as he crawled between your legs. He tugged the hem of your dress and removed it. Haechan stared at you for a moment. He felt his heart skip a beat when he saw you sprawled in his bed, bare and pretty.

He gave you a sweet kiss and placed his forehead to yours, 

“Are you ready?”

You and Haechan shared each other’s warmth that you thought you didn’t need. Magkayakap at magkatabi kayo buong gabi.

Alas nwebe na ng umaga ng magising ka, pag bukas ng mga mata mo at agad sumalubong sayo ang sinag ng araw. You find yourself alone sa kama. Napaupo ka at tumungin ka sa paligid. 

“Hindi ko to kwarto” mahinang sabi mo sa sarili mo, napatigil ka naman sa pag unat ng mag sink in sayo kung nasaan ka at kung ano ang nangyari kagabi. 

Agad namang namula ang pisngi mo at nakaramdam ng kilig. Tangina ang aga aga

You reached out to your phone at nakita mong may iilan kang message from your friends. 

From: Joy

Gaga ka talaga, happy landi! Wag mong kakalimutan na you have class sa tanghali. 

From: Chi

Gm bestie <33 balita ko di ka daw umuwi. Edi sana all may dilig.

Tuluyan namang nagising ang diwa mo sa text ni Joy. Shit, you have anaphy class mamayang 11 pm at heto ka naka hilata pa din sa kama ni Haechan. Nag bihis ka at dahan dahan mong binuksan ang pinto palabas ng kwarto. 

Pag dating mo sa kusina ay agad na tumumbad sayo si Haechan na nakatalikod, Napangiti ka naman kasi you know you made the right decision nang makita mo siya nag luluto ng almusal. 

“Hey” mahinang bati mo sakanya. Napalingon naman si Haechan at ngumiti. Itinigil niya muna ang ginagawa niya at binigyan ka niya ng tubig. 

“Hey good morning, you good?” He said at hinalikan pisngi mo. 

“Medyo dry at masakit lang lalamunan ko but im okay” 

“You screamed my name non-stop kagabi, no wonder masakit lalamunan mo” he said with a smile. muntik mo na mabato sakanya ang baso

“Haechan! Ang aga aga” sigaw mo sa kanya at tinawanan ka lang niya. Pinaupo ka niya sa lamesa at nag almusal na kayo. The two of you talked about random things about each other hanggang sa biglang nagtanong si haechan

“So…why didn’t you called me?” Napatigil ka naman sa tanong niya. 

“Bakit? Hinihintay mo ba ako?”

“I did, so bakit nga?”

“Nahiya ako, and ano gusto mong bungad ko sayo? Hi Haechan it’s me yung naka momol mo sa pool” 

“Well tama naman?” He teasingly said.

“Shut up, andito na ako sa harapan mo okay” sabi mo at inirapan siya. 

After niyo kumain ay nag handa ka na umalis, you told him na may pasok ka today. 

“Hatid na kita”

“Nakakahiya, wag na”

“Baka malate ka if nag commute ka kaya tara na” Makakatanggi pa ba ako?

Bago ka pumunta ng school ay nagpadaan ka muna sa condo mo para kunin ang ibang libro and to your surprise nakasalubong niyo ni Haechan ang Mama mo. Naestatwa ka lang ng makita mo siya palabas ng elevator. Huminga ka ng malalim ng makita mong papalapit ang mama mo sainyo. 

“Sabi nila umalis ka daw sa- oh? Hijo!” Agad namang napansin ng mama mo si Haechan. Ngumiti si haechan at binati ang mama mo. 

“Hi po tita!” Masayang bati nito. Agad mo namang siniko si Haechan, hoping na tumahimik muna siya. 

“Ah ma-” naputol ang sasabihin mo nang nagsalita ulit mama mo. 

“Hijo magkakilala pala kayo ng anak ko, what a coincidence!” Haechan side eyed you bago sumagot. 

“Common friends po tita” he calmly said.

“I see pero bakit kayo magkasama ng anak ko ng ganito ka-aga?” Mama sorry huhuhu

“Mama ano kasi-”

“Nililigawan mo ba anak ko?” Deretchong sabi ng Mama mo nagulat ka naman dahil Haechan is definitely not courting you. Tinapik mo ang Mama mo at pinanlakihan mo ng mata

“Mama ano ba! hindi no magkai-”

“Kung papayagan niyo po ako ng anak niyo at syempre kung papayagan niyo din po ako tita. Manliligaw po ako”

End.

May dalawa akong officemates na naging ka-close ko sa previous company ko. Yung girl, si A, was my batchmate sa training nung new-hires pa lang kami, tapos yung guy naman, si M, eh teammate ko nung na-distribute na yung batch namin sa kanya-kanya naming teams.

Pretty si A but what got me was kapangalan sya ng ex ko from LB tapos sa LB din sya nag-aral. Nagkaroon ako ng konting crush sa kanya pero di ko naman ni-nurture kasi may girlfriend ako that time, si G, then may boyfriend din sya.

May long-time girlfriend si M pero crush na crush nya si A. Sabay kami lagi mag-break since teammates kami tapos lagi nya nababanggit na gusto nya maka-close si A.

Natupad naman yung wish nya kasi one time nakuha kaming tatlo as Subject Matter Experts ng bagong batch ng trainees and dun kami nag-start maging close na tatlo. I think dun din napalitan yung crush ni M kay A with genuine friendship so kahit dubious yung reason bakit nya inattempt i-close si A it turned out well naman lol.

Anyway, nalaman namin recently na kaka-break lang ni A and ng boyfriend nya. Magkakausap kaming tatlo then nabanggit nya na single na nga sya so dun napunta usapan naming tatlo sa breakup nila pero mukhang maraming thoughts na kailangan i-process so we all agreed na magkita-kita next week to catch up. I'm quite interested to see how this get-together will turn out because I'm not gonna lie, she suddenly came on my radar when I found out na single sya. Gusto kong malaman what my feelings for her would be pag nagkita kami. So ako na yung may dubious intention ngayon charot!

That said, hindi ko din naman sya ipupursue agad agad kahit ma-feel ko na may spark. Gusto ko na maging okay sya from the break up so sa ngayon, the best thing I can do for her is be a friend to her.

Also andami kong iniisip ngayon wala pa din talaga akong time para sa love life.

1. To whom you are most likely to fall in love with: close friend, acquaintance, stranger? Why?

2. Is it possible to fall in love with someone over the internet? Why or why not?

3. Have you ever felt a spark with a stranger sitting next to you while traveling?

4. Do you think it’s okay to fall in love with a colleague/coworker? Why or why not?

5. How would you react if a friend falls in love with you?

1. Acquaintance, kasi pag kaclose mo sobra meaning more on friendships lang kayo, tropa-tropa ganon. Yung stranger naman medyo di possible sakin kasi di ko pa masyado kakilala. Dun tayo sa gitna lang, basta ganon.

2. Yes possible, lalo na pag nakakausap mo naman sa call and vc, wala naman imposible sa pagmamahal diba? Kaya nga may LDR, mahirap nga lang kaso wala naman madali sa buhay.

3. Nothing.

4. For me nah, pag nasa work kasi ako kahit nung nag aaral pa, pure work/studies lang, siguro sa ibang department pa or acad prog meron o pwede kasi most of the time yung mga kasama mo is kasama mo sa kalokohan, more on kapatid lang yung turian, pati sa akin pag co work, work lang, more on family talaga yung turi ko and friendships.

5. Maraming instances na nangyari sa akin to, di na mabilang, pero nag stay pa rin ako bilang true friend pero sinasabi ko na agad na hindi pwede kasi ayoko pa or may gusto na ako. Ganon, respect na lang siguro? Kapag nakaramdam na medyo off na yung tipong nalampas nanaman yung turi sayo medyo nag lolowkey ako, kasi ayoko naman magpaasa, pati ayoko before nung pipilitin ka na mag crush back or magkagusto kahit wala ka naman talaga gusto, pag friendship pure lang, pag tropa, tropa lang, pag may set ups kung ano lang, yung puso kasi di naman mapipilit yan eh. Basta nagiging honest naman ako pag di ko gusto or talagang di talaga in relationship yung feelings.

Good morning @ameownymous 🌃
