BLUSANG ITIM (RE-IMAGINED) - PART 2

“Hey miss, mind if we tag along?” The lady in black stare at the group of a bystander with disgust. These dogs are blatantly hitting on her the way they smother her body from head to toe with their twinkling eyes. “Come one. We don’t mean harm. Actually, we are going to protect you from maniacs on your way.” The man in open button polo pulls his pants up a notch as he winks to the lady. “Why don’t you just die.” The lady in black utter with a venomous look at them.

Mag-iisang buwan na noong pinatupad sa buong bansa ang total lockdown; hindi pwedeng lumabas ng bahay liban sa mga doktor at mga militar. Lahat ng pagkain a
