YOU'LL BE SAFE HERE Mr. Harry Marco Petersen TRANSGENDER STORY Hindi akalain ni Shan Gonzales na magiging challenging ang huling taon ng pag-aaral niya sa St.Nathaniel Central Colleges. Dahil sa nangyari sakanya, hindi siya nakiki-halubilo sa mga kalalakihan at para maiwasan niya ang mga lalaki, nagpa-lipat siya sa isang section kung saan babae lahat ang magiging kaklase niya. Enter- Harry Marco Petersen ang lalaki na makaka-saksi sa paghihirap ni Shan, idagdag mopa na kasama niya ito sa iisang bahay dahil nag-sisilbi si Shan sa kapatid ni Harry. Anong gagawin ni Harry para protektahan niya si Shan? Mawawala ba ang takot ni Shan sa pag-dating ni Harry sa buhay niya? Matutulungan ba ni Harry si Shan para makalimutan niya ang nakaraan nito? Makikilala kaya ni Harry si Shan sa oras na mag-balik ito? When the hope disappears and when this world's insincere, am I safe here?

Sa ilalim ng malabong ilaw ng eskinita, muling naramdaman ni Mark ang pamilyar na higpit sa kanyang lalamunan. Hindi ito kamay ng kaaway, kundi ang sarili niyang takot na tila isang anino na ayaw siyang tantanan. Ngunit sa gabing ito, may kakaibang alab na gumagapang sa kanyang mga ugat-isang pagpapasya na ang susunod na luhang papatak ay hindi na mula sa sakit, kundi mula sa paglaya.

Bawat kirot ay may katumbas na paghihiganti. Yes, every pain demands a payback. That's the first thing I learned when I loved him. Not consciously, not right away-but slowly, in pieces. He taught me how to love. His love was wildfire-reckless, consuming, beautiful in the way it ruined everything. I thought I was lucky to have it. I thought he saw something in me. Maybe he did. Maybe he saw the parts that were already breaking. He taught me how to bend the rules, how to silence the voice in my head that said "this isn't right." With him, right and wrong blurred until they didn't matter. Until all that mattered was staying close enough not to lose him, but distant enough not to drown. And then came pain. He taught me pain in a thousand unspoken ways. In words that stung more than silence. In apologies that came too late. In touches that lingered with regret. And pain... And pain. Again and again No fairy tale. No forever. It was never about soulmates. It was just... a story. A complicated, messy, painful story. But still, I gambled. I bet my heart on something that didn't deserve it. And in the end, that so-called love? It destroyed me. It didn't just break me-it broke everything I cared about. Everyone I loved. It burned through every soft thing I had left inside me. Because that love... Was disastrous. Behind the illusion of love hid everything I was afraid of: pain, betrayal, lies, manipulation. A heartbreak wrapped in promises. A knife dressed like a kiss. But here's what no one tells you: after heartbreak comes something sharper. Stronger. Revenge. And revenge-it's not sweet. It's not cold. It's best served hot. The kind of heat that doesn't ask for closure. It takes it. I, who was a he, now turned into a she. I will serve pain out of pain. Not to mirror the cruelty, but to remind the world: You don't get to hurt someone like me and walk away unburned.
