Luha sa Kandila
Naranasan mo na bang umiyak sa gabi, ilang oras bago pumatak sa alas-dose ang kamay ng orasan hudyat na malapit na ang iyong kaarawan? Marahil oo, marahil hindi.

Ang Kalungkutan ay Suwail na Bisita
Madalas siyang bumibisita sa ‘yo, sa tuwing kakatok siya sa pintuan ay agad-agad mo itong bubuksan, hindi ka mag-aalinlangan— malugod mo siyang tatanggapin at pauupuin pa sa malambot na sofa habang dala-dala niya ang mga pasalubong na kakaladkad sa ‘yo pababa, at gustong-gusto mo ‘yon.
