Still

An official entry to Open Novella Contest PH 2026 using the given prompt:

11. “A strange message arrives, written in your own handwriting, but it’s dated years in the future. As you read, you realize it warns you about something only you can change.” (but with a twist esp. abt the ‘change’ thingy). fingers crossed, I’ll survive this kahit ang totoo, nakikigulo lang naman ako, ni ’di ko nga alam ang gagawin ko sa prompt na ’to. :D

~.°｡𖦹˚ 𓇼 ｡𖦹°｡.~

Trigger Warning:

Themes of grief, depression, and heavy emotional distress are present (almost all chapters) in this story. Readers discretion is advised. also, this ain’t a rough draft anymore but still, expect grammatical and typographical errors ahead. i single-handedly edited this all by myself, so may ma-o-overlook pa rin talaga ako. so sorry. hehe.
